With advancing years there is a decline of strength and vigor the machinery of the body moves with less speed and accuracy. Because of the weak and irregular action of the heart the blood moves more slowly, becomes impure and loses mach of its life-sustaining properties, and muscles, tissues and nerves literally starve for lack of nourishment. A sluggish and polluted circulation is followed by a long train of bodily ailments. Cold feet, chilly sensations up and down the spine, poor appetite and digestion, soreness of the muscles, rheumatic pains, hard and fissured skin, face sores, chronic running ulcers on the lower limbs and other parts of the body these and many other diseases peculiar to old people are due to a lack of healthy blood and imperfect circulation. Restoration to health must come through the building up and purification of the blood, thus adding strength and tone to the vital organs and quick, healthy action to the circulation. S. S. S. being strictly a vegetable blood remedy and the best tonic, makes it the most valuable and efficacious of all medicine for old people. It is free from all mineral ingredients, and mild and pleasant in its action. It cures blood diseases of every character, even those inherited or contracted in early life. As the system gets under the influence of S. 8. 8. there is a marked improvement in the general health, and as richer and purer blood begins to circulate through the body the appetite improves, and there is a softness and elasticity about the skin that yon have not noticed for years ; sores begin to heal, pains in muscles and joints grad ually cease, and you find that it is possible to be happy and healthy even in old age. Our medical department is in charge of physicians who make a study of blood and skin diseases. If yon would like to have their opinion and advice in your case, write them all about it and you shall receive such information and advice as yon want This will cost you nothing. Others have found our medical depart ment of great benefit to them their cure being much more rapid as the result of some special directions received from our physicians. Don't be your own doctor when you can get medical advice free. Book on ZHood and Skin Diseases mailed to all who desire it.

Sow Sarpria Taos Coatala for the Occidental Traveler Meat Sorvod ta Gneeta Koesaa, bat Hatha a ad Waefc lac Coavvaioacoe Are Pabltc. The native Inns of Japan offer sur prises to the Occidental traveler. Tbe Inn building is of Japanese architec ture, of two stories, and generally rambling, for a house which has beeu at all prosperous will cava had addl tious made from time to time to ac commodate the lucreased patrouage. The front door Is in the day time mere ly a panel with paper windows, which is pushed aside to admit guests. Mine host stauds smiling In the aperture, and If it Is wluter a large brasler la placed iu the midst of the first apart ment, which would correspond to the office or exchauge of one of our hotels. Tbe brasler cou talus small sticks of charcoal, and gives forth little heat Several newly arrived Japanese trav elers will generally be sitting about It on cushion on the floor, chatting and rubbing their hands over the tluy blase. Before entering you must sit down on the step aud take your shoes off, no matter bow cold the weather, for the "tataniP (mats) of a Japanese Inn and the polished floor are kept as Imma culately clean as a private house. When the shoes are off and delivered to au attendant a little "amah," or maid. leads you through the room on which the front door opens, along passages and by several twists and turns, and along corridors, possibly up a flight of stairs, to the room which Is assigned to you. It Is entirely empty of any furniture. At one side Is a tiny data. or wooden platform, ou which may be a carved stand, perhaps of teak wood, and on it a vase with some plum blos soms or green boughs, arranged ac cording to the Japanese conventional style of flower arrangement The only other ornamentation In the room will consist of a "kakemono" or two, with pictures or writing on them. These are the banging scrolls that take the place in Japan that our framed pic tures do with us. The walls of the room are finished In a soft green or brown, and the wood work Is left the natural color. First of all the "amah" brings out some flat cushions for the guests to Bit on; then she brings a "blbachl" from down stairs, and puts In It lighted coals and some fresh sticks of charcoal. The next thing Is tee, and this Is daintily served In tittle cups on bronxe stands. and with It some delicious cakes of bean paste, or else wafers which fair ly melt in your mouth. Now, If you have arrived late, comes the question of supper. The meals In these Inns are always served In your apartment There la no such thing as a general dining-room. In this or in a private house. There will be another long pause. during which the room may be slightly warmed by the heat from the brazier, but when supper is brought and the screen is thrust aside by the little maid the cold comes rushing in again. Tbe Japanese pay no attention to cold air and draughts, even In tbe dead of win ter. The maid kneels In the doorway when she opens the screen, for it wonld not be considered etiquette for any one to enter a room standing. The meal Is placed on a tiny wooden stand, often beautifully lacquered, one stand for each person, and all the courses are placed on It together In beautiful little dishes. Nothing Is ever served with more exquisite taste In the most luxu rious American hotel than in tbe poor est Japanese hostelry, Just as tbe most poverty-stricken Japanese often live In more aesthetic surroundings than many of our rich people. When it becomes dark the room Is lit by a square paper lantern ion a high wooden stand. By tbe light the Japa nese read and sew in the evenings, though they are gradually Importing and nslng many of our kerosene lamps. which give a better light At bedtime the "amah" goes to a sort of clothes press or chest of drawers set in the side of the wall, and produces the bed, which Is simply a series of soft quilts called "futons," and which are laid on the floor, one on top of the other. Down coverings are placed over these, and In between the sleeper crawls. Sheets and pillows such as we use must be brought by the guest who requires them. While the guests at a Japanese Inn eat In the seclusion of their rooms, the bath and washing arrangements are public, and here one may encounter any of tbe other guests of the house of either sex while performing one's ablu tions. To say the least this Is ex tremely awkward, but It Is according to Japanese custom, and tbe same thing Is found In the private Japanese houses. GETTING TO A FIRE. The American Ftro Departments' Splen did Horeea and Their Tralnlag. F. S. Dellenbaugh writes an article for St Nicholas on "The Quick Horse," devoted to the training of horses for the American lire departments. Mr. Dellenbaugh says: When a fire breaks out in America, it Is necessary to reach it at once. Tbe telegraph was brought into service in sending the alarm. In Munich some years ago the method In vogue was to hang out a red flag by day and a red lantern by night from tbe top of one of tbe Frauenkirche towers, on tbe side In the direction of the fire; but in America such a system would have resulted in the destruction of the whole town. The telegraph Is the only thing for us. But It Is not enough to know immedi ately tbe exact location of a fire; it Is also necessary to reach It Immediately. The steam fire-engine was a splendid machine, with steam always up and everything In readiness for Instant de parture, but bow to secure this Instant departure was a question. Horses were kept standing In their stalls with the harness on, but this was not quick enough. Each second's delay meant loss of life or possible millions of prop erty destroyed. So tbe first swinging harness was Invented: a harness con trived In such a way that, while al ways attached to the engine or other apparatus, It could be made to drop in stantly on the horse's back and fasten there. This teemed to solve the ques tion, but there remained oue more step, and this was the training of the quick horse. Not only must the engine and the harness and the men and the horses be ready, but the horses must be In the harness at oncethe operation must be as nearly Instantaneous as human In genuity and brute Intelligence together could contrive. in every fire-engine house In the United States to-day, therefore, we may see and admire the "quick" horse, sleek-limbed, clear-eyed, with an alert Intelligent air, standing not far from the machine of which he Is the moving power. The casual visitor saunters la. He thinks the life of a fireman Is a quiet and easy one, judging from the appear ance of the quarters. All Is serene. The machines are Immaculate In polished brass and red paint Some of the men are reading, others are playing a game of checkers. Suddenly there Is a tinkling some where, and the stroke of a gong. A snap, a click and through the wide open doors the various machines fly, one after another, until the visitor views In astonishment an empty house. It Is like magic a wonderful "transformation-scene." He gsses up and down the street but the galloping procession has vanished as If It were a dream. The quick horse has done his duty, and once more exhibited the power of organisation and training. Within the time required by the firemen of the old en time to throw open the engine-house doors, the complicated machines of to day are throwing water on the flames, and the brave firemen, having scaled the building with the agility of acro bats, are dealing well-considered blows against the fire foe. In almost every city there Is a practice-drill at least once a day In the engine-houses, and the visitor may have an opportunity of Inspecting the admirable development of the Amer ican fire system and the fine horses so splendidly trained. And be may also have an opportunity at the same time of lamenting that other branches of our public service are not conducted with equal efficiency. INDIAN WORDS AND NAMES. Chaacea la Fpclllagr that Have Marred Their Mealing. Commenting on the changes which have been made in the orthography of Indian names and the expressed be lief that historians and literary people have surrendered their right and duty to maintain these verbal relics In their purity, the Montgomery (Ala.) Adver tiser says: The statement Is true, niore's the pity. Aa the Indians have no written language, their local names were acquired by tbe whites by sound only, and often by Illiterate whites who had little knowledge of the arts of spelling and writing. For this rea son there la little uniformity in tbe orthography of Indian proper names. Even the work of Intelligent scholars Is open to the same objections. Tbe vocabularies of Indian words In Ala bama prepared by Schoolcraft Galla tin. Compere, Wright, Adair, Bart ram and others all differ In spelling, and often In . pronunciation, so much so that sometimes It Is difficult to recog nize a name when it goes through so many changes. The various Indian dialects were the most expressive of any in tbe world. Every name was significant whether It was of an animate or Inanimate ob ject, and tbe name given plainly indi cated its meaning. Unfortunately the sound as well as the orthography and expression of many of our Indian names have been sacrificed In the ef fort to simplify the words and to make them conform to our system of spell ing and writing the English language. Tbe general government, too, or the Postoffice Department has sacrificed much of tbe euphony and meaning of our Indian names in order to bring about simplicity and uniformity. It has accomplished this end, but has done It at the expense of meaning. Many names of poKtoflkes In Alabama have no significance as now spelled. but as they were originally written any one familiar with Indian words would know just what was meant to be ex pressed. However, we must admit that Indian words have not undergone more changes or modifications than have many of the words taken from the European or other old world languages and dialects. The people of the Unit ed States and the government itself are formulating something like a language of our awn, and if the change carries with It a total hiding of the original significance of many words, it must be accepted as one of the results of the march of progress. But we must be permitted to express regret that so many of our native names have been Improved entirely away from their originals. : Jefferson at Seventy-two. "In Florida, where Ponce de Leon failed to discover tbe Fountain of Per petual Youth, Joseph Jefferson seems to have found It" declares James S. Metcalfe, in tbe Ladies' Home Journal. "He Is a picturesque figure. His ruddy cheeks and bright eyes give the lie to bis 72 years. He is slender, but not with the leanness of age. Ills hair, mostly black, streaked only here and there with gray, and in length showing a wholesome contempt for the fine art of tbe barber, blows about In the breeze. Ills fingers are as quick and deft at knotting a line or adjusting a sinker as those of a boy on the banks of a stream, and he enters Into every detail with boyish enjoyment His fishing he alternates with landscape painting, writing and tbe care of plants. In none of these pursuits does be claim professional skill, but he brings to them something more than professional zest Mr. Jefferson Is a very abstemi ous man.
