As (In ballooning) every pound les
sens the soaring quality of the balloon,
the traveler has to select his outfit
with care, says the Century. It Is
wise to have a short coat with plenty
of pockets, and buttoning close round
the throat when necessary ; and the
simplest and most practical tailor
made suit of, light wool should be
worn. Light shoes, like those used for
tennis or yachting, are necessary, with
a strong .pair of boots in reserve In
case of landing In a mountainous dis
trict or having a long trnmp at the end
of one's Journey. An umbrella Is a de
sirable adjunct for the sun bites hard
In the south and a motor-veil for
wind and warmth. A long, light Shet
land scarf such as one uses In the
Alps In bad weather Is useful In case
of sleet and cold.
A small necessalre, a "first aid," a
Change of underwear, a light volume
oi .a favorite author, a roup and a
guidebook, should be taken. These
should be wrapped. In a light water-1
proof cover; for In a cross-country I
journey one may meet with a variety I
of weather, and the rain that pours'
down In the spebere of a balloon Is as
drenching as a waterspout
Excepting a small flask of brandy In
case of falntness, no alcoholic drink
should be carried. Smoking, matches i
and spirit-lamps are, of course, abso-
lutely prohibited, as the smallest flame
might cause an explosion of the gas,
that Inflates the balloon. The tube'
hangs loose and open Just above the
car, and small quantities of gas con
stantly escape from It.
Food that Is nourishing, but light
and easily eaten, Is best. French
prunes, raisins and chocolate are a
good standby, with cold tea, coffee and
mineral water. Bread should be very
well baked. Jam and sugar are as
useful as in mountaineering, sugar be
ing one of the best of foods for ex
hausting expeditions.

What will appear fery interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from a New York daily paper, giving a
simple prescription, as formulated by a
noted authority, who ulaimg that he
has found a positive remedy to our
almost any case of backache or kidney
or bladder derangement, in the follow
Ing simple prescription, if taken before
the stage of Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sareaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well In a bottle and
take In teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription, stated that
the ingredients are. all harmless, and
can be obtained at a small cost from
any good prescription pharmacy, or the
mixture would be put up if asked to do
so. Heyfurther stated that while this
prescription is often prescribed in rheu
matic afflictions with splendid results,
be could see no reason why it would
not be a splendid remedy for kidney
and urinary troubles and backache, as
it has a peculiar action upon the kid
ney structure, cleansing these mcst im
portant organs and helping them to sift
and filter from the blood the foul acids
and waste matter which cause sickness
and suffering. Those who suffer can

URS. W. A. CLARK, JR.
When they returned from their hon

bride wore received with open arms by I
Butte (Mout.) society. The copper sen
ator's son's position in Butte society is
impregnable. However, this was not
needed to Introduce Mrs. Clark, for she j
was afteady known in Butte social cir
cles as Mrs. Marco Medln, wife of an
Italian grocery owner and money
lender.
When young Clark's first wife died
two years ago, leaving their only child,
baby W. A. Clark the third, motherless.
be mourned his wife liiconsolably, and .
traveled to dull his grief. When he re
turned to Butte his mourning was
about over, for he was noticed to be
often In the compnny of Mrs. Medln.
It is said the million-dollar baby mnde
them friendly to each other, by the
baby taking a sudden attachment for
MrB. Medln, who is very beautiful,
while out for an airing.
Medln did not like the friendship,
however, for a divorce suit followed.
and it was not fought so bitterly as to
cause comment After the divorce
Clark married the pretty ex-wife of the
Italian, and now the millionaire baby
has for a new mamma the lady to
whom It became so attached.

Trees that Are a Mystery-.
' California has one tree which is the
personification of myBtcry. Found no
where else in the world, It had a mys
terious origin and thrives lu a region
of mystery.
The Mojava yucca is a vegetable
freak, which has develoed into a spe
cies. It has the characteristics of sev
eral plants, to which uo relationship
can be traced.
It is an endogen, yet Its bark shows
concentric rings such as characterize
the exogenous stems. It Uvea and
thrives In great numbers In a region
curly devoid of vegetation, In a land
of heat and tlilrst and barrenness.
Another tree In California which has
a peculiar personality is the creeping
oak of Monterey.
Nowhere In the vegetable kingdom
can be found so true a representative
of monopoly. This tree Is of gnarly
growth, Its limbs, like those of the
sycamore, bending and twisting In all
directions.
Wherever a branch touches the earth
It takes root and becomes, as It were,
another trunk, though still a branch of
the main stem, drawing nourishment
both from the parent stem and from
the new source. In this manner the
tree is spread till it has taken posses
sion of five acres of ground and it is
still advancing.
Lonar Sight.
The longest distance ever compassed
by human vision Is 183 miles, being
tho distance between the Uncompahgre
park. In Colorado, and Mount Ellen, In
Utah. This feat was acocmpllshed by
the surveyors of the United States
coast and geodetic survey, who were
engaged, in conjunction with repre
sentatives of other nations, In making
a new measurement of the earth.
CONTAGIOUS
NO LIMIT TO ITS P0ERS FOR EVIL
Contagious Blood Poison lias brought more suffering, misery and humila
don Into the world than all other diseases combined ; there is hardly any
limit to its powers for evil. It is the blackest and vilest of all disorders,
wrecking the lives of those unfortunate enough to contract it and often being
transmitted to innocent offspring, a blighting legacy of suffering and shame.
So highly contagious is the trouble that innocent persons may contract it
by using the same table ware, toilet articles or clothing of one in whose
blood the treacherous virus has taken root. Not only is it a powerful poison
but a very deceptive one. Only those who have learned by bitter experience
know by the Jittle Bore or ulcer, which, usually makes its appearance first, of
the sufferjng which is to follow. It comes in the form of ulcerated mouth
and throat, unsightly copper colored spots, swollen glands in the groin,
falling hair, offensive sores and ulcers on the body, and in severe cases the
finger nails drop off, the bones become diseased, the nervous Bystcm is shat
tered and the Buffercr becomes an object of pity to his fellow man. Especi
ally is the treacherous nature of Contagious Llood I'oison, shown when the
infected person endeavors to combat the poison with mercury and potash.
These minerals will drive away all outward 63'mptomsj of the troubles for
a while, and the victim is deceived into the belief that be is cured. When,
however.the treatment is lcftolf liefindsthat the poisonlias only been driven
deeper into the blood and the disease reappears, and usually in worse fona
because these strong minerals have not ouly failed to remove the virus from
the blood but have weakened the entire system because of their destructive
action. S. S. S. is she only real and certain cure for Contagious Blood Tol
son. It is made of a combination of healing blood-purifying roots, herbs
and barks, the best in Nature's great laboratory of forest and field. We
offer a reward of $1,000 for proof that S. S. S. contains a particle of mineral
in any lorm. a. a. H. goes down to the
very bottom of the trouble and by cleansing
the blood of every particle of the virus and
adding rich, healthful qualities to this vital
fluid, forever cures this powerful disorder.
So thoroughly does S. S. S. cleanse the
circulation that no signs of the disease are
ever Been again, and odMpnng is protected.
Write for our special book on Contagious Blood Poison, which fully ex
plains the different stagesof the trouble, and outlines a complete home treat
ment for all suffercrsof this trouble. No charge is made for this book, and
if you wish special medical advice about case or any of its symptoms, oui
physicians Will be glad to furnish that, too, without hargc,
