Newspaper Page TextHood's Sarsaparilla Has won success far beyond the effect of advertising only. The secret of its wonderful popular ity is explained by its unapproachable Merit. Based upon a prescription which cured people considered incurable, Hood's Sarsaparilla . Unites the best-known vegetable rem edies, by such a combination, propor tion and process as to have curative power peculiar to itself. Its cures of scrofula, eczema, psori asis, and every kind of humor, as well as catarrh and rheumatism prove Hood's Sarsaparilla the best blood purifier ever produced. Its cures of dyspepsia, loss of appe tite and that tired feeling make it the greatest stomach tonic and strength restorer the world has ever known. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is a thoroughly good medicine.

IThe 'Art of Canning Fruit. The art of canning fruit in large quantities has reached a stage little dreamed of by our grandparents 25 and 50 years ago.

In Criminal Walks the Eex Ie Keep ing Well Up with Man. "Women are making progress along more than one line," remarked an old member of the police force. "A recent example shows that they are quite as efficient as men In the matter of safe blowing." Woman in the role of safe blower is new to the police. The fact Is that the operation of female offend ers has heretofore been confined to of fenses of the daytime or of the early part of the night. But here comes a story from Tennessee of the arrest of several women who belong to a gang of expert cracksmen, and who actually took part in a safe blowing in a small town near Nashville, where they robbed a bank and got $1,700. "Women have often developed Into expert forgers, as, for Instance, In the recent case of an American woman abroad, who succeeded in conducting a forgery scheme for a considerable length of time, and until she had fraudulently collected a vast sum of money. They make high-class pick pockets, and, in fact, infinitely more successful in this line of work than men. "One curious fact in this connection despite the frequent announcements publicly made of offenses of this kind committed by women, men are never on the lookout for the female pickpocket unless they find themselves In a ques tionable resort, or in bad company, For this very reason women find it much easier to pick a man's pocket. They can get closer to men, too, with out becoming offensive, and can lift the diamond pin out of his scarf, nip his watch and chain or any other valuable thing he may have before he will ever dream of anything wrong. "In that kind of pilfering," too, pe culiar to kleptomania, she is more successful because in this instance of the way she dresses and woman's pe culiar demeanor around the counters in dry goods stores. If a man, for in stance, should go Into a dry goods store and begin to pick up little things and fumble over them, apparently for the purpose of inspection, he would at once arouse the suspicion of every clerk within visual range. On the other hand, a woman may do exactly the same thing without exciting the least suspicion. It is simply looked upon as a matter of comparative ease for the kleptomaniac. "But the woman safe blower. is a new type, as far as my experience goes, and I suppose It simply means that the police of the country will soon be confronted with many new problems in dealing with the female offender." New Orleans Picayune. The Tragedy of Being Poop. I. the summer, when the hot wind sweeps the plain, the summer when the parched fields In In ' gasp for rain, When the sky above is brassy and the sun, Like a vessel from which molten metals run, Hangs o'erhead through days that never seem to end, They totter in the dusty streets and sigh, . The children in their huddled hovels penned, Lie crying out through shriveled lips and dry In the summer, when the heat is stifling, Woe Assumes a thousand shapes they must endure, Till Death is kind enough to claim them The tragedy of being poor! II. In the winter, when the plains are white with snow, In the winter, when the maddened bliz zards blow, When the sky above is leaden and the sun, Like a weary slave, whose heavy task is done, Shrinks out of sight?-as if to steal a rest. vvitn races pinched and blue they go their ways; The mother, with her babies on her breast, ' ' - Beside the empty stove weeps through the days; - In the winter, when the blasts are icy. Woe Assumes a thousand shapes they must endure, Till Death is kind enough to claim them The tragedy of being poor! Chicago Record-Herald. A Butcher of Taste. There is a butcher in one of the New Orleans markets who has built up an immense family trade entirely by reason of his taste in doing up par cels of meat. His modus operandi is very ingenious. If he is handling a porterhouse he places It between two squares of pasteboard, uses a sheet of pearl gray manila paper as a wrapper and ties it up with baby blue string. The result is a neat rectangle which has every appearance of having come from some fashionable drug store or confectioner's. Chops and such like he stows away in neat little cardboard tubes, and he keeps a supply of one pound candy boxes especially for chicken livers and chopped sausage. The system is very effective. Those Who Read Novels. "But," we object, speaking to the author who has written a historical novel, "this historical data is absolute ly wrong. Why, it's ridiculous to have George Washington fighting three duels, fighting battles he was never In, etc." - "I know I took some liberties with George and history," the author says naively, "but what's the difference? He'll never know and it won't hurt his feelings." - "But the people who read your bok," we again object, ' "Surely you know that people who read historical novels know nothing of history!" he exclaims in just scorn.

"The Great Northwest" In the Century Mr. Bay Stannard Baker, one of the most popular of the yotinger American magazine writers, has just returned to the East from a trip of several months througn the northwestern states, during nuiuu juo lias ueeii gaineriDg material for a series .of articles on "The Great Northwest," which will begin in the March Century.. The . story of the growth of the cities, how the mighty wheat farms are managed, the mining industries, cattle raising all will be told in Mr. Baker's crisp and pictur esque way, with striking illustrations by Mr. Edward, L. Elumenschein, who accompanied the writer on his journey. The series will include articles on "The Conquest of the Forest," "The Vitality of Mormonism," "Salmon Fisheries," "The Day of the Ran," (a vivid description of the oreaing pf an Indian reservation, "Yellowstone Park," etc. The first - article, which will appear in the March Century, to be issued February 28, tells of the striking things to be seen in Portland, Spokane, Tacoma, Seattle and there abouts. Mr. Baker's series on "The Great Southwest," which appeared in The Century last year, was nowhere more u:u u l i ii . . T highly appreciated than in the region which it described, and it is beiieved by the conductors of The Century, that the present series will add greatly to the popularity of the magazine in the Northwest. It will certainly set be. fore Eastern readers, more thoroughly and enterteunmelv than ever before. the natural and industrial wonders of that picturesque region.

"In these days," said a storage and van man, "it is just as easy to move from New York to London as from jew York to Hoboken. One's furni ture and household effects can be transported across the Atlantic in vans as easily as across the North River. "Of course, vans have long been used here for comparatively long distance moving by rail and steamboat. It is a common thing in summer, for instance, to see teams on the decks of boats running to and from this city. They just run the vans aboard on their own wheels, and run 'em off at the other end of the line, and back in the country, or wherever they want to take them. "The vans used In trans-Atlantic moving are lift vans. They are really van bodies and can be lifted from their wheels and swung onto a car of trans portation by rail or down a hatchway Into a steamer's hold. "At the end of its rail or water transportation the van can as easily be lifted off the car or out of the steam er's hold and swung upon the trucks uponjwhich it is to be hauled to the house where the goods are to be put, "Who are the people that thus cas ually pack up and move across the At lantic? Well, they may. be foreign merchants , who have been living In this country, but are now going back. They may also be Americans who are going abroad to live. "With the modern facilities for the transportation of people and goods ev erywhere and the very great increase In travel there are now many people who, crossing the Atlantic for a more or less .extended stayr take their house hold goods with them. "Of course, there are people moving in this way all the time from Europe, as there are people moving thither from here, and when we move any body over we want, of course, a freight back; we don't want to bring our vans back empty, and we move some body this way. "In some German cities there are published weekly newspapers, t)r rath er extended bulletins, devoted to the interests of the storage van men. In those several publications you would find lists of the vans to be had in the city where the list -was published and other information concerning them, in cluding the name of the owner of the van, where it was from, its cubic ca pacity, where it would be at disposal and the name of Its agent or the rep resentative of its owner, at the point where this list was published. "Foreign lift vans come filled with household effects to American ports, and through the representatives of their owners here they get return ship ments, as American vans In - Europe, through their representatives there, get shipments this way. "So you see that really in these days It Is about as easy to move to Europe as It would be to move into the next block, and there Is lots of trans-Atlantic moving." New York Sun. COMMERCIAL CORRESPONDENCE Young Man Inadvertently Mixed Bnsi - ness with Uis Social Note. There-is no worse literary style than that of the ordinary business letter, which begins, "Yours received and contents noted. In reply would say that we received orders for goods 30th ult., and shipped same day following." When this style gets mixed up with the formal conventlonanity of "socie ty" correspondence, as related In a story in the New York Times, the com bination Is funny. A young woman in Baltimore received this letter: "Mr. Blank requests his compliments to Miss Dash, and requests the pleas ure of her company at the theater Thursday evening next. "Awaiting an early reply, and hop ing it .win be ravoraoie to our propo sition, we are, yours very truly, , "BLANK & CO." The writer was the Junior partner in a large manufacturing company. He had written many letters that day for tne company and signed the name of the - firm, and the stereotyped off his pen phrases of commerce ran from habit. . The lady, however, understood 'what had happened, and was equal to the occasion. The next day the young man was astonished to receive this reply: . "Messrs. Blank & Co.: Gentlemen Your favor of recent date at hand and contents noted. In reply will say J ac cept the proposition therein made and hold the goods ordered, subject to yr. further Instructions. Very respect fully, - MISS DASH." Of course it was easy to apologize to a woman with so much humor as that, but the young man had to listen for a long time to the question, c"How's business?" U S S. Baltimore Fireproof. The announcement that the cruiser Baltimore is to be ma4e as absolutely fireproof as human ingenuity can an ticipate must cause a feeling of prld In the city for which the war ship is named. All of the furniture on board will be made of thin steel, so welded that the seams will not show.

This innovation, of course, will be costly, involving about $30,000. but if It be only an experiment It will be a source of gratification to know that the Balti more will stand unique as the only man-or-war m tne woria tons far so equipped. The wisdom of reducing of woodwork there had been fireproof ed seems to have been due the cruiser's escape from flames below. While fire proofing was the best treatment for wood formerly found to be accessible, present naval development Is along the theory that the only real safeguard Is 1 the abandonment of woodwork alto gether.

Mr. Isaac Brock, of McLennan coun ty, Texas, has attained the great age of 114 yearss. He is an ardent friend of Peruna and speaks of it in the follow ing terms.

I had always supposed these affections to be differ ent diseases. For the last ten or fifteen years I have been reading Dr. Hart man's books, and have learned from them one thing in particular: That .these affections are the same and that . they are properly called catarrh. i "As for Dr. Hartman's' remedy, Pe runa, I have found it to be the best, if not the only reliable remedy for these affections.
