The air they breathe is filled with germs, sewer gas and dust from the filthy streets are inhaled into the lungs and taken into the blood. At the crowded school rooms and other public places they come in contact almost daily with others recovering from or in the first stages of contagious diseases. You can't quarantine against the balance of the world, and the best yon can do is to keep their blood ia good condition, and thus prevent or at least mitigate the disease. You, have perhaps learned front observation or experience that healthy, robust children (and this means, of course, children whose blood is pure) are not nearly so liable to contract diseases peculiar to them, and when they do it is generally in a mild form. On the other hand, weak, emaciated and sickly ones seem to catch every disease that comes along. This is because their blood is lack ing in all the elements necessary to sustain and build up the body. Poisons of every description accumulate in the system, because the polluted and sluggish blood is unable to perform its proper functions. Such'children need a blood purifier and tonic to give strength and vitality to their blood, and S. S. S. , being a purely vegetable remedy, makes it the safest and best for the delicate constitutions of children. S. S.

A great deal is heard now about the "anchor" fences that have sprung into wide popularity of late. It is claimed that they are the cheapest and most durable fences on earth, hence their general adoption. Mi nute inquiry into details of construc tion reveals the fact that "anchor" clamps hold (rivet tight) the large wires of which the fence is made, thus making the fence five times as strong and durable as any other fence on the market. The manufacturers, The Portland Anchor Fence Co., 742 Jficolai street, Portland, Or., give a full baker's dozen reasons why the "anchor" clamp is so efficient : 1. It is made of the best hoop steel, therefore is strong and durable. z. It is simple; can be applied by any one. 3. It does what other ties pretend to do makes an immovable anchor. 4. It prevents loose and sagging wires. 5. It keeps a fence always in repair. 6. It prevents injury to stock. 7. It makes a fence that stock can not break down. 8. It can be used on smooth or barbed wire. 9. It can be used for making new or repairing old fences. 10. It is the only tie yet devised by which a fence can be made in any manner desired, or repaired without rebuilding. 11. It makes the BEST and most, durable fence on the market. 12. IT 13 CHEAP. 13.

Little Dot la tae Pacific That la Bettor Ksoea That Many or the Larger and Much More Important Islands Scene of a Boys' Classic With all of Its solitude, writes Doug las White In the Overland Monthly la regard to Uobluson Crusoe's UU.ud, there is not speck of land upon the surface of the PaclHc or any other ocean which is better kuown or more wldoly discussed thau this same Island of Juan Fernando. Siraugely enough, it Is not the island's history which has made Its name so well kuowu through out the English-speaking world, for to most people there ia little of its history kuown; but the fame of Juau Feruau dea has all arisen from a work of fic tion which has beeu since Its first pub lication more widely read than auy similar work iu the Kuglish language From the passing of Feruandei and his Spanish colonists the Wand w4 seldom visited save by some ship which was pressed for water and fresh food, in which case it furnished both In am ple quautlties, the goats supply lug fresh meat, the fruit trees set by Fer nando giving of their products, while several kiuds of wild vegetables grew in abundance on different parts of the Island. History, however, records but few of these visits up to the begluuing of the eighteenth century. From a rough survey of the Islaud, It was set down as being about twelve miles long by four miles in its widest portion, curving in a northwest and southwest direction, with Its highest peak at the bend of the curve. This peak was named by Fernandes "EI 1'uuque" (The Anvil), from its close resemblance to that mechanical implement For considerably over 100 years El Yunqne's solitude was broken only by the coming and going of these few vis itors, until In 1700 the ship entered Cuuilierland Bay which was to give to Juan Fernandes its possibility of be coming one of the best kuowu Islands upon the world's .charts. This was the Cinque Torts galley, under the com mand of one Capt. Straddling. Now, this British skipper does not seem to have been extremely popular with his men. for upon this first visit to Fer nandez more than 40 of his "Jackies" deserted to the Island, preferring the life oii its solitary shores iu eiiatfiice aboard the galley. Before the ship sailed, however, all but five of these deserters changed their opinions and re turned to the galley's decks. Four years slipped by and again Straddling's ship dropped her anchor In Cumber land's waters. Of the five men left in 1700 but two remained, the others hav ing been carried away by a French ship which called In the meantime. But this second visit' of the Cinque Ports was to be productive of the great event In Fernandez's history, for while in the bay the commander of the gal ley bad an argument with his sailing master, one Alexander Selkirk, who demanded that he be given nn allow ance of stores and landed on the isl and. His request was compiled with, and the galley sailed without him. For four years and four months did Selkirk maintain his lonely vigil at the top of the island's mountain range, scanning the sea for the sail which might come to end hia droary life. In 1704 he was taken off by the Duke, an English priv ateer, on board of which he returned to England, bringing with him an exten sive note book covering his experiences during these years of solicitude. This note book was presented by him to the novelist Defoe, and on It the writer founded what at once became one of the most popular fictional works of that and each succeeding generation. Of course, Defoe used an author's lati tude in its construction, but there ex ists to-day upon Juan Fernandez every one of the principal landmarks describ ed In the chapters of Robinson Crusoe. TO OUTWIT THE JANITOR. Flat-Dwellers Fear of Ogre Has De veloped New Industry. "All right," said the locksmith, who keeps a little shop In Amsterdam ave nue and does odd jobs of no great im portance In themselves for the resi dents of the neighborhood, "all right, sir, I can fix this key to suit you, I think." "You see," he explained to a visitor, according to the New York Herald, when the customer had retired, "he wants me to give him a janitor-proof key, and I'm Just the boy to do It. 1 guess you don't know what a Janitor- proof key is, because I know you live In a house. If you lived in a flat you'd know. "When a man moves Into a new apart mentthat Is, an apartment that is new to him the first thing he begins to worry about is the key proposition. I'll take my oath that New York people are the most suspicious set of citizens that I ever saw in all my life. Why, they don't trust their relatives. After the man of the flat gets his string of two or three keys from the Janitor he begins to let his suspicion loose. "He thinks, of course, that the Janitor is predatory by nature. Maybe he is right, but I believe the law holds all persons Innocent until they are proved guilty, and It would be a pretty hard thing to do to prove a Janitor guilty. Anyway, the man of the flat gets ner vous. He has received so many keys. What Is to prevent the Janitor from having kept a duplicate key of the apartment? Nothing at all. It would be the easiest thing In the world for the Janitor to hold out, turning over all the keys but one and making use of that to enter the flat whenever he saw a good opportunity In the absence of the family. "That's the way the householder fig ures the case out to himself. Theu he comes around to some locksmith In the neighborhood and gives one excuse after another to account for his wish to have the lock changed on his front door. It doesn't make any difference to a locksmith what the reason is, so long as he gets paid for the work he does, but the 'flatters' seem to think It necessary to spin him a fairy yarn. Anyway, the matter ends by the lock smith going around to the flat, taking a ( quint at th lock, msxkraf a place, where he can cut ft a trifle of the iron so that the key that belongs to It won't work, and then altering the key so that It win fit the revised lock. "For this the charge ! very slight There is only a few minutes' work t the job, and a locksmith hasn't the heart to make an overcharge, you know. Now, this is much cheaper than havtug the old Wk taken off and a new oue put on, for then new key would have to be made, and good keys coat consid erable, jom know. By simply scraping a piece off the lock at a certatn point aud scraping a corresponding piece off the key, the 'flatter gets practically a new protection, and the Janitor doesn't stand a chance of paytng him a visit without ringing the belt and being regu larly admitted,"' The End of the Town. There was nothing about htm to Indi cate the crank. He was neatly but not fashionably dressed, and his good natured countenance was of corpulent order, says the New York Mall and Ex press. He glanced reflectively out of the roar window of a Third avenue car at the tall buildings along Park ltow and Broadway, and for a moment look ed serious. "Too much weight" he said to a fel low passenger beside him, nodding his head In the direction of the buildings, "Too much weight entirely. People don't seem to realise that the lower portion of this city is only a crust of rock, with water of great depth be neath it They keep putting up build ing after building of great height and weight and some day there's going to he the greatest catastrophe of the ages, The whole blooming lower part of the city, or a good portion of it, will cave tn under the enormous strain put upon It by these sky-scrapers, and the loss of life and property will be Incalcula ble. "Just think of the weight that crust has to sustain. Millions of tons of Iron arriving here every year to be used for girders and rafters. Millions of tons of brick and mortar are used In con structing the buildings, to say nothing of the marble, granite and other kinds of stone, and all piled upon that frail crust of rock, which must give way some day under the strain. "Then, there's the bridge, too. It can't last forever. Some day It Is go ing to break down under the additional strain put upon it by the trolley and steam cars now running to Brooklyn. Imagine the scene at a rush hour some night; trolley cars on both sides laden with people; the promenade crowded and trucks in a steady stream. Sud denly one of the cables gives way. The other, unable to stand the strain alone, also parts, and people, cars and trucks are dumped Into the river like a shovel of coal Into a bucket Oh, It's bound to come, I tell you." "Prince Georuie." The Duke of Cornwall is devotedly loved in loyal Bermuda, where as a growing boy he once passed a happy winter. One of his favorite comrades there was a little girl whose great grandfather had fought side by side with Wolfe upon the Plains of Abra ham. She used to push ber little rocking-chair close beside that of the prince, and laboriously time her small rockers with those of his larger chair. "We rock together. Prince Oeorgle," she used to chatter, "always together," thrusting difference of rank Into that limbo reserved for sophisticated adults. Another favorite of the prince wa a young American girl who discovered him in the admiral's hallway one day, tugging at his gloves. "I hate to wear them," he admitted. as be looked at her bare hands; "only I promised grandmother that I would." A letter from Queen Victoria gave the royal boy much pleasure, but on being asked If he would sell it for two pounds, he eagerly accepted the offer. Where upon he answered the letter with com mendable promptness, urging his "dear grandmother please to write again." The death of his older brother, some years later, and the recent death of the queen materially changed the career of the youth to whom the American girl said "you, and he said you to me." On his return from the tour of the Brit ish colonies he will receive the honored title of the Prince of Wales, with Its pregnant motto, "Ich dlen" I serve. Why Dinah Wept. ' Not long ago a lieutenant in the navy was ordered away on a three years' cruise. The order bad been dreaded for weeks, and when it came the young wife, who was to be left In a Brooklyn flat with a baby and a colored servant, was in despair. She controlled her sorrow very well. however, until the actual moment of parting came, and then she wept as though her heart would break, says the New York nerald. Tne cruiser was to leave the navy yard early next morn ing, and the lieutenant had gone to re port for duty. In the midst of ber lamentations the young wife heard a sniffling and sob bing In the dining-room, and upon glancing through the door she saw Dinah, the colored maid, rocking her body to and fro In a chair and weeping violently. ; "Why, D-D-DInah, what's the m-mat- ter?' cried the mistress. "You seem to t-t-take Mr. Blank's departure as much to heart as I do." " 'Deed I doesn't, Mis' Blank-'deed I doesn't!" sobbed Dinah. "What am bodderin' dis chile am the fac dat a culled gemman friend o' mine am gwine sail hisse'f on dat same old cruisah!" Duke of Norfolk's Clothes. The Duke of Norfolk's Indifference to the niceties of dress has led to many mistakes, which, as a man of humor, he always enjoys. During his long term of service on the London County Coun cil he was often mistaken for a labor member, one reason being because he always sat on the same group of seats as the labor men. Not so long ago ho put some sovereigns In the plate at the door on leaving the Koman Catholic Church off Llncoln's-Inn-flelds. The doorkeeper, feeling that the plainly dressed man must have made a mis take, hurried after him to explain. The departing visitor smiled quietly as he replied: "We'll let the mistake paus this time," London Chronicle. TOLD BY A KANSAS CITY NEWSAGENT. Ia an later tew Ho Rotates Bow Be As cotuplLhad What Many Otttere Havo rails to Do. Jack Williams, of No. 401 Pela ware street, says the Kansas City, Mo,, Journal, is well known a an en terprising news agent and a thorough ly reliable man. He had been a suf ferer from kidney trouble and endured much pain from it until recently, when he tried Dr. Williams' rink Pills for Pale People and with uoh success that within a short time he was entirely and permanently cured. To a reporter he said; "Foy two years I had pains in the back constantly, causing me serious inconvenience. But I did not at tempt to do anything for my com plaint until the latter part of last winter, when I saw an advertisement of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and decided to see what they would do for me. I was re lie veil within one week after I began taking them; the pains disappeared and so complete was the cure that I have not found it necessary to tako further treatment nor have I boon troubled at all by the disease since." Kidney complaint is an insiduous disease. First come almost unnoticed pains in the back and some slight in convenience. The pains grow gradu ally worse and the inconvenience greater t ill finally, if not given medi cal treatment, the person suffers awful torture and becomes unfit to follow his ordinary occupation. Blood pois oning sets in, the constitution is wrecked and death often results. Mr, William stook the one unfailing remedy and was readily cured within a few weeks. His statement was sworn to before Lionel Moise, a no tary public, and the facts above will bear the most searching investigation. Dr. Williams' Pink rills for Pale Teople will not only effect a cure in cases similar to the one above, but, acting directly upon the blood and nones, are an unfailing specilio for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, par tial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sci atica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, after effects of tho grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sal low complexions and all forms of weakness either in male or female.
