Unfortunate Alliance. i Little Mary Whitney, who had just ) been punished by her father, came to her mother with a deeply-grieved ex pression upon her face and said: "Mamma, I wish Ksr Whitney had j never married into this family." ill A Good Beginning If the blood is in good condition at the beginning of the warm season, won are prepared to resist disease and are not apt to be troubled with boils, pimples, blackheads and blotches, or the itching and burning skin eruptions that make one's life a veritable torment and misery. Now is the time to begin the work of cleansing and building up the blood and strengthening the weat places in your constitution. During the cold winter months we are compelled to live indoors and breathe the impure air of badly ventilated rooms and of fices. We over-work and over-eat, and get too little out-door exercise, and onr systems become clogged with impuri ties and the blood a hot-bed of germs and humors of every kind, and warm weather is sure to bring a reaction, and the poisonous matter in the blood and system will break out in boils and pustules or scaly eruptions and red, disfiguring bumps and pimples. Make good beginning this season by taking t course of S. S. S. in time ; it will not only purify your blood and destroy the germs and poisons, but promote healthy action of the Liver and Kidneys and give yon a good appetite at a time when you need it most. S. S. S. improves the digestion and tones up the Stomach, and you are not coninually haunted by the fear of indigestion every time you eat, or troubled with dizziness, nervousness and sleeolessness. There is no reason to dread the coming of warm weather if you have your system well fortified and the blood in a normal, health condition. It is the polluted, sluggish blood that invites disease germs, microbes and poisons of every kind and bring on a long train of spring and summer ailments, break down the con stitution, and produce weakness, lassitude, and other debilitating disorders. Eczema, Acne, Nettle-rash, Poison Oak and Ivy, and other irritating skin troubles are sure to make their appearance unless the humors and poisons are antidoted and the thin, acid, blood made rich and strong before the coming of warm weather. A course of S. S. S. now would be a safe precaution and a good beginning and enable you to pass in comfort through the hot, sultry months and escape the diseases common to spring and summer. S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable and is recognized as the best blood purifier and the most in vigorating and pleasant of all tonics. Write for our book on "The Blood and its Diseases.

Traction teu with electric automo biles in I-ondon have shown a sur prising In.Tease of the stm-ting pull on oiled navetiieiits.

On greasy asphalt a pull of nearly aev enty nine pounds per ton was ueces aary. The wireless system of telegtuplkj: has been tested successfully in the Coast Survey. Last summer, as an experiment,, one of the surveying ves sels, using short-distance, apparatus, transmitted the half second beats of Its chronometer to a shore station more than sixty mile away, where they were automatically recorded on a mov ing tape. It is anticipated that for the determination of longitude the wireless system will eventually take the place of cable and telegraph lines. Ilumtin life Is possible under varied conditions, and. If a recent report l correct, British New Guinea ha a tribe whose environment has made them Incapable 'of walking. These people live In a swampy region, and. as walking and canoeing are alike Im practicable, they remain constantly In their dwellings, which are built in the trees Just above the marshes.

The reason Is that while the wots! la lying In the water Its sttp and albuminous and salty ma teriajs are dissolved out.

Artifi cial processes of washing out the hy groscopic stilwitances from wood which has not been floated sre practiced In liermany. In describing experiments made for the Iepartuient of Agriculture on the effects of lime and magnesia uron ani mal production, I. W. May of the Kentucky Kxperiment Station remarks that it ia a well-known fact that the greatest development In live stock has been attained In limestone regions. He adds that In the blue-grass region of Kentucky, long noted for the beauty and quality of Its live stock, and espe cially of Its thoroughbred horses, the soil hns lieen formed largely by the disintegration of a limestone very rich In phosphates. But even, in that fa vored region experiments are under way to determine whether the quality of the animals may not be improved by the addition of certain mlueral ele ments to the food. Census Work la Esrope. To the American observer of Euro pean census method, one of the most striking characteristics is the decen tralization of census work. In the United States the census is completely j 'centralized: every person engaged In the work acts a an officer or employe I of the federal government, and all ex penditure for census purpose are I inmle from the Vntted State treasury. In most countries of continental Ku rope, on the contrary, both the lalmr and the expense of collecting the orig inal censu tlata devolve upon the mu nicipalities, township or commune. ' Century.

"To Yopno Wombs: I suffered for six yrars with dysmenor rhea (painful periods), so much so that I dreaded every month, as I knew it meant three or four days of intense pain.
