It Opests a Nw World to On who Uses It Froperly. A friend of one of onr contributors walked Into, the editor's office the other day with a request that we give our attention to what he called an "anticamera crusade," says the Amer ican Inventor. He Informed his patient auditor that bis small ion had lately become possessed of "one of those devilish kodak things" and now, by the great horn spoon, he wanted to study art! It was mildly suggested to the irate parent that sons have on occasion done worse things,; but a muttered malediction was the only, re sult He did not give us time to tell him what we really thought of the matter," bo we are going to do. it .now. In our opinion there no greater fac tor to-day than tbe camera as a means of education. We do most emphati cally believe that the closer man gets to nature the more , he knows, the better , "citizen he makes and the more competent he is to bear his part as a unit in the 'great machine humanity. And the camera Is the thing that sends a man out into the country, that makes him walk and look, not walk and think about his business, It sends some of Its devotees down close to the ground for insect pictures, others it makes climb trees for birds, to others it holds out inviting hands calling them where ocean breezes blow and to one and all it exercises a fascination and a mysterious charm which breeds, often from nothing, an appreciation and love for the beauti ful,, without which no one can truly say, "I have lived." In education the camera Is a bigger man ' than the superintendent of schools. Bringing far scenes to the textbook page for the edification of the child to whom pictures are every thing and print a to- be- avoided evil, telling a story in scenes from the north or south and making real to lit tle minds the difficulties and dangers which the explorer and the vanguard of civilization have to face, it Is play ing a part in the better education of mankind that may well require an ad miration and a reverence but little second to that which the world pays to the inventor of letters and books. So to that dissatisfied father whose son of sixteen was so broadened that he knew his ignorance and asked for an art training, and to all the multi tude of parents whose children use the camera to the alternate amuse ment and disgust of the household, we would commend a little educational reading, a subscription to a photo graphic magazine and a careful re pression of oppression of the camera. It does no harm, it does great good it Is not a waste of time it is an ed ucational recreation, and last, but not least, it is not a "monomaniacal pur suit," but a broadener and deepener of the mind, and as such is to be en couraged and smiled upon. Daguerre, salutem! Heart Must Go with the Pen. A good letter may be written by one who dislikes to write letters; one who dislikes to write may even, by force of intellect or will, always compose good letters, but this is not what is meant by the elegant art of letter writ ing. That art demands primarily not alone an ease of outward form, but an underlying love of the thing, a natural recourse to the pen as a means of en joyment, as a solace, as an unpremed itated expression of thought or emo tion. It is the presence of this fac tor in the constitution of the writer that so often makes the' letters of peo ple not superlatively intellectual or learned far exceed in grace and charm the labored efforts of minds of pro found attainments. Women are often excellent letter writers. The little things that go to the making of the perfect letter are appreciated by them, the trifles of the outer world no less than the trifles of the inner world of human affections and endeavor.- Noth ing kills the life of a letter more sure ly than the conscious or unconscious feeling on the part of the writer that it Is not worth while to write this or that. Absolute play of pen is needed, for the quality of style in letter writ ing, evasive as it is, tends-rather to discursiveness than to conciseness. Gunton's Magazine. An Kctnomical Mother. Small Katherine, who had been for bidden to touch the ink bottle, had ac cidentally spilled Its contents not only all over her mother's desk, but on the rug, several chairs and her own apron. Her mother, on discovering the , state of affairs, had expressed more surprise than pleasure. When the father of the family returned at night, his little daughter met him at the door and asked: :". v---' i . - :- " "Papa, how much does a bottle ot ink cost?" ,ff "Oh, about 5 cents." ' " "Five cents!" exclaimed the ag grieved youngster, in a tone of deep disgust. "And to think that mamma would make all that fuss about one little bottle of Ink!!" Lippincott's. " A Desperate Debtor. "Yes," said the business man, "I have given up trying to collect that little bill from Bilkins. . You see, he is a pretty big fellow, -and he used to throw my collectors out." "Then why didn't you employ a woman collector? He couldn't do that to a woman." "That's what I thought," so I got one and sent her round, but she never came back." "Why not?" ' " "He married her." Similar but Different. They were meandering slowly , to ward the parental domicile of the fair maid, after the theater and a little supper at a 6well beanery, when the spirit moved him to do a .conundrum. "Darling," he asked, "why am I like the moon?" "I d'don't know, George," she stam mered, "but I h-hope It isn't b-because you get full." "No," he answered in a tone redo lent with sadness, "it's because I'm down to my last quarter." ; The WoriU's GoUl Product.

Miss Gannon, Secy Detroit Amateur Art Association, tells young" women what to do to avoid pain and suffering caused by female troubles. Dear Mrs. Pinkham : I can conscientiously recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with female "weakness and the troubles which so often befall women. I suf fered for months with general weakness, and felt so weary that I had hard work to keep up. I had shooting pains, and was utterly miserable. In my distress I was advised to use JLydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose, for at that time my restoration began. In six weeks I was a changed woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt so elated and happy that I want all women who suffer to get well as I did." Miss Guila Gannok, 359 Jones St., Detroit, Mich., Secretary Amateur Art Association. It Is clearly shown in this young lady's letter that Liydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will certainly cure the sufferings of women; and when one considers that Miss Gannon's letter is only one of the countless hundreds which we are continually struation, and was not able to work. Your medicine has cured me of my trouble. I felt relieved after taking one bottle. I know of no med icine as good as yours for female troubles." Miss Edith Cross, 169 Water Street, Haverhill, Mass Remember, Mrs. Pinkham's advice is free, and all sick women are foolish if they do not ask for it. No other person has sucl Tast experience, and has helped so many women.

They will be replaced by Scotch shepherd dogs, which have more endurance and are more conscientious. Oood Wishes for Wedded Couple. A couple who were nnited in wedlock recently were the recipients of a tele gram which read as follows: ' "I wish you the health cf Jeffries, the wealth of Rockefeller and the luck of Roose velt. I cannot attend the wedding, but will endeavor to be present at the chris tening." V 4 - ' If so then your system , is out of balance, and there is a flaw somewhere in your constitution, and a possibility that you are losing health, too. The falling off in weight may be slight, but it makes a wonderful change in one's looks and feelings, and unless the building up process is begun in time, vitality and strength are soon gone and health, quickly follows. If you are losing weight there is a cause for it. Your blood, is deteriorating and becoming too poor to properly nourish the body, and it must be purified and enriched before lost weight is regained. It requires something more than an ordinary tonic to build up a feeble constitution, for unless the poisons and germs that are lurking in the blood are destroyed, they will further im poverish the blood and weaken the system, and you continue to lose weight. In S. S. S. will be found purifying and tonic properties combined. It not only builds up weaic constitutions, but searches out and destroys germs and poisons of every description and cleanses the system of all impurities, thus laying the foundation for a healthy, steady increase in weight and future good health. Food may be bountiful and the appetite good, but. still the system weakens and we remain poor in flesh unless what we eat is properly digested and turned into rich, pure blood. S. S. S. re-inforces the Stomach and aids the digestion and assimilation of food, and there is a rapid up-building of health and strength. S. S. S. acts 5romptly and beneficially upon the nervous system, strengthens and tones tup, and relieves the strain by producing sound, refreshing sleep. You can find ho tonic so invigorating as S. S. S., and being composed exclusively of roots and herbs its use is attended with no bad effects. Old people will find that it braces them up, improves the circulation bf the blood, and Strong or well, and who are growing thinner and falling below their usual weight, should take a course of S. S. Sand build up again. . S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the leading blood purifier and the safest and best of all tonics. T We cheerfully furnish medical advice, without charge, to all who will write us. jtSE SWSFT SPECIFIC CO.M ATUL'iTA CJU ' publishing in the newspapers of this country, the great virtue of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine must be admitted by all ; and for the absolute cure of all kinds of female ills no substitute can possibly take its place. Women should bear this important fact in mind when they go" into a drug store, and be sure not to accept anything that is claimed to be " just as g-ood " as jLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, for no other medicine for female ills has made so many actual cures. How Another Young Sufferer Was Cured. "Dear Mrs. Potkham: I must write and tell you what your Vegetable Compound has done for me. I suffered terriblv everv month at time of men riarket Price. One day a little baby brother arrived at Hamiln's house, and being of a prac tical turn of mind, he asked his moth er how much she had to pay for him. "How much do you think he is worth?" returned his mother. "Well," Hamlin reflected, "he only weighs ten pounds, so I should think ten dollars would be enough, because beefsteak is only 20 cents a pound. The Coffins of tbe Qreeks. The ancient Greeks used a species o( limestcne known as sarcophagus in making coffins. The peculiar quality of sarcophagus consisted in the fact that it would consume the human body within a period of a few weeks. It is said to have been found at Absos, a city of Lycia. WONDERFUL GAIN IN WEIGHT. Huntsville, Ala., Jam. 10, 1903. Some years aero my general health gave way; my nervous system was shattered, and I could get nothing- to do me any good till I heg-an to ass 8. S. S. I commenced to improve at onoe. My appetite became splendid and from 135 pounds I increased to 180. I became weU again by talcing S. S. S. and would take no amount for the good it did me. My health is now perfect, and I believe if every body would take a bottle of S. S. S. occasionally, they would enjoy life as I am doing. W. Ij.

Those whose feelings tell them they are not "The Adventures of Gerard" la th title of A. Co nan Doyle's new book. Miss Caroline Brown has sent the manuscript of her new book. "On the We-a Trail," to the MacmUlan Com pany. It Is a tale of Indiana in the closing years of the revolution. "The Pool in the Desert" is the title of Mrs. Everard Cotes' (Sarah Jean nette Duncan) new volume of short stories which D. Appleton & Co. will Issue. There are four tales in all, each said to be very interesting. Myrtle Reed's new novel, "The Shadow of Victory," will be published by G. P. Putnam's Sons. As has been announced, this Is a romance of Fort Dearborn, the little trading post from which developed the city of Chicago. Bliss Carman's first book of prose, "The Kinship of Nature," is announced for early publication by L. C. Page & Co. It will be followed immediately by "Sappho, One Hundred Lyrics," with an introduction by Charles G. D. Roberts. "Ferns," by Dr. C. E. Waters, Ph.D., Johns Hopkins university, Is to be brought out shortly by Henry Holt & Co. The book describes all the ferns in the northwestern States and Is in tended to cover the same territory as Gray's "Manual." Arthur Severn, the artist who mar ried Ruskln's cousin and ward, Miss Joan Ruskin Agnew, has nearly com pleted his "Recollections of Ruskin," which should prove interesting, con sidering the author's Intimate associa tion with Ruskin and his great talent as a raconteur. The Macmillan Company have just published a new abridgement of Lln gard's well-known "History of .Eng land," brought down to the present. An abridgement of this book has for fifty years been used in most of the Catholic schools of Great Britain as the text-book In English history. It Is understood that Samuel Merwin Is completing a new novel, which will be called "His Little World.'! This story Is described as including the presentation of an original and strik ing character a real man doing a mauls work In the stirring shipping and lumber life of Lake Michigan. During one of his recent wanderings abroad Clifton Johnson . visited the County of Wiltshire, where he secured twenty-five of the finest pictures of nature and rural life. These photo graphs will be used to Illustrate the new edition of Richard Jefferies' well known work, "Wild Life In a Southern Village," which Little, Brown & Co. will publish under the title, "An Eng lish Village." An Important little volume is an nounced by Houghton, Mifflin & Co., by the late George S. Morison, former ly president of the American Society of Civil Engineers and classmate and close friend of John Fiske. "The New Epoch as Developed in the Manufac ture of Power" Is the comprehensive title of the essay, which bids fair to arouse no little interest among scien tists and others. James Otis Kaler, better known as James Otis, the writer of stories for young people, is now at work on his ninety-fourth book, which is to be pub lished by J. B. Llpplncott Company. When It is added that all the Otis books are yet on sale, It can be under stood that the author has made no fail ures in the enormous amount of work performed. The new story from Mr. Otis Is to be called, probably, "The Treasure Hunters." Jean's Revenge. An avenger need not necessarily be a naturalist, but there are cases where he would take his vengeance more to the purpose if he knew the habits of his , victim. LIppencott'8 Magazine tells a story of Jean, the French-Canadian gardener, who was found stamping on a little mound of fresh earth and chuckling to himself. "Ah, m'sieu'," he cried, triumph antly, "I am not a one to be trifled with I I am a cr-r-r-uel man when once I am arouse. M'sieu' will remem ber the mole that has long time rav age the strawberry beds of madame? Every morning madame she say, 'Jean, why catchest thou not that mole?' v "But the mole was wise; 'e was queek. Always I look and look, but never can I find heem. But at last thees very morning I catch heem. I hold heem tight In my hand so and I say, 'Aha-a-a! Is it thou, then, that has vexed madame, and rav aged her beds of the strawberry? Aha-a! You shall repent of thees wick edness.' "Then I wonder how I shall kill heem. He must be punished as well as killed. I wonder and wonder, but at last I have the grand Idea. Ah, it was cr-r-uel, m'sieu', that way I kill heem! But what would you? Did he not deserve of the worst? But he will vex madame no more. I fix heem. I bury heem alive!" . Peebles. In the "Memoir" of Robert Cham bers, by his brother William, Is a delightful allusion to Peebles, their birthplace, and a spot ever warm in the loving memory of Scotch residents. One of these, a man who had lived there all his life, was enabled by some uplift of fortune to visit Paris. When he came back, his townsmen gravely gathered about him. "Noo," said one, while the others lis tened, "tell us aboot it.' " "Paris," he began, "a' things' con sidered, Js a wondeff u' place. But still, Peebles for pleasure!" " Afraid of Englishmen. The Moscow Gazette warns the gov ernment against allowing English men to settle in the oil districts of the Caucasus, as the situation may become the same as that in the Transvaal be fore the war. ' Every big girl in a family complains that the children tag her when she runs over to the neighbor's. Where Solomon dot His Wisdom. The little boy was asked by a Sunday school teacher to write all he knew about Solomon and hand his paper to her the next Sunday.
