An actor without fund managed la

on a line of steamers running between
Seattle and San Francisco. The voy
age between these two points consumed
the better part of three days and In
Tlew of the fact that his finances were
at low ebb he solved the question In
this way:
The first day out he slept all day to
keep from eating, and remained up all
night to keep from sleeping. The sec

The fact is, chronio catarrh is a dis-1

chronio catarrh. They have visited,
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be of the nose,' throat,

organ. There Is no doubt as to the na

Is the remedy. This doctor has tried to

Pr. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh

A m Itejryeetlast Problem.
There was once a wise King who
waswfully curious. He was possessed
of a desire to know everything, and
was continually asking questions. In
deed, his thirst for knowledge carried
htm so far that he wanted to know the
age of every person he met , But
being a King, he was exceeaingiy po
lite, and would resort to strategy to
gain bis ends.
One day there came to the ourt a
gray-haired professor, who amused the
King greatly. He told the monarch a
number of things that he never knew
before, and the King was delighted.
But finally it came to the point where
the ruler wanted to know, the age of
the. professor, so he thought of a math
ematical questldn.
"Ahem !" said the King. "I have sn
Interesting sum for you; It Is a trial
In mental arithmetic. Think of the
number of the month of your birth."
Now the professor, was 60 years old,
and had been born two days Derore
Christmas, so he thought of 12, Decem
ber being the twelfth month. i
"Yes," said the professor. "Multiply
by 2," continued the King. "Yes." "Add
5." "Yes," answered the professor,
doing so. "Now multiply that by 50."
"Yes." "Add your age." "Yes." "Sub
tract 305." "Yes." "Add 115." "Yes."
And now," said the King, mlght I ask
what the result Is?"
"Twelve hundred and sixty," replied
the professor, wonderlngly.
"Thank you," was the King's re
sponse, so you were torn in Decem
ber, sixty years ago, eh?"
"How In the world did you know?"
cried the professor.
"Why," retorted the King, "from
your answer 120O. The month of your
birth was the twelfth, and the last two
figures give your age."
"Ha, ha, ha !" laughed the professor.

person I meet It's such a polite way
of finding out people's ages."

THE SOURCE OF JUX DISEASE
Every part of the body ia dependent on the blood for nourishment and
strength. When this hie stream is flowing through the system in a state of
purity and richnes3 we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health;
tecausa pure blood i3 nature's safe-guard against disease. When, however,
the body is fed on weak. Impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of
its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble is manifested in various
ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections
ehowthat the blood is in a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too
much acid vi the presence of 6oma irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are
the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Rheumatism, Ca
tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Toison, etc., are all deep-seated blood
disorders that will continue to grow worse as long: as the poison remains.
These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood in various ways.
Often a sluggish, inactive condition f the system, and torpid state of the
avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and
form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed
throughout the circulation. Coming in contact with contagious diseases is
smother cause for the poisoning of the blood ; we also breathe the germs and
microbes of Malaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood ia
eufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some

A STORY OF RAPHAEL
The War the Great Italian Painter
Once Settled a Bill.
Raphael, the great Italian painter
whose celebrated Biblical pictures are
worth fabulous sums of money, was
not a. rich man when young. He en
countered some of the vicissitudes of
life, like many another genius. Once
when traveling he put up at an inn and
remained there unable to get away
through lack of funds to settle his bill.
The landlord grew suspicious that such
was the case, and his requests for a
settlement grew more and more press
ing. Finally young Raphael In desper
ation resorted to the following device :
He carefully painted upon a table
In his room a number of gold coins, and,
placing the table In a certain light that
gave them a startling effect, he packed
his few belongings and summoned his
host
"There," he exclaimed, with a lord
ly wave of his hand toward the table,
"Is enough to settle my bill and more.
Now kindly show the way to the door."
The Innkeeper, with many smiles and
bows, ushered his guest out and then
hastened bock to gather up his gold.
His rage and consternation when he
discovered the fraud knew no bounds
until a Vealthy English traveler, recog
nizing the value of the art put In the
work, gladly paid him toO for the table.
Fire Dogs' Anceatry.
In regard to audirons a writer in
the Connoisseur points out the curious
fact that the older specimens rarely
come m pairs, but are of different
helehts aud sizes. It was the custom
in the middle ages, it seems, to make
them uneven so as to facilitate the
moving and raising of the huge blocks
employed for firewood. He continues:
According to VIollet le Due, since tne
most remote ages, from Etruscan times
down to the Romans, "-such andirons
were made of Iron. In England and
irons are called fire dogs, and In the
Bargello there Is a splendid specimen
made In the form of crouching bounds.
I hold that the andirons were In the
first Instance made In the shape of an!
inala lying at rest, shaped of clay or
stone, and It was much later that they
were made of iron, when they often
ended In animals' heads, most often in
that of dogs. Exchange. ' .
