Good Blood M e a n « good hea lth, and H ood’r Sarsaparilla has an unapproached record as a blood*purlfier. It effects its wonderful cures, not simply because it contains sarsaparilla but because it combines the utmost remedial values of more than ^different ingredients. There is no real substitute for it. If urged to buy any preparation said to be “ just as good” you may be sure it is inferior, costó less to make, and yields the dealer a larger profit.

Chicago, May 18.— The Record-Her ald says : A new freight rate schedule from all the territory east o f the Missouri river to all the Western cities not lo cated on the Pacific coast will go into effect on the transcontinental lines July L The new rates w ill be based upon the rates which the Interstate Com merce commission ordered the railroads to put in from St. Paul and Chicago to Spokane and will be an average reduc tion under the present rates of about 15 per cent. The railroads decided to do this in stead o f fighting the order of ^the com mission in the courts. One o f the officials who are attend ing said; ‘ ‘ The railroads have decided to try to carry out the principle announced by the commission in the Spokane rate decision, instead o f appealing to the courts to prevent such a reduction in our revenue. REWARDS T O T A L $60,000. Sleuths Flock to Spokane in Search o f Train Robbers. Spokane, May 18.— Responding to the life r o f rewards aggregating $66,- 000, offered by the Federal authorities and the railroad company for the cap ture and conviction o f the robbers who held up and plundered a Great North ern train near Spokane, detectives are gathering here from many places. Sev eral arrived from Denver, and the Pinkerton force here has ^been increas ed to 25. Spokane police believe the robbers made^their way into Spokane and a close watch is kept on the saloons and lodging houses. A number of detec tives are working on the theory that the desperadoes are hiding in the mountains back o f Colbert. Police and railway men say they do not believe that Charles McDonald, the notorious train robber who broke ja il in Helena, Mont., while awaiting trial for holding up a Great Northern train at Rondo, Mont., shared in last Saturday’s crime. They say McDonald would not be likely to agiain invade territory in which he is known to so many persons. GROW L A G A IN ST KAISER. Extravagance o f Hia Welcome Angers Austrian Taxpayers. Vienna, May 18.— This city is echo ing with gossip and comment in con nection with the visit o f Emperor William. It is agreed that the wel come o f the august visitor was out wardly hearty and that the decorations were on a scale quite disproportionate to the brief and incidental character of the visit. Indeed, the extravagance o f the municipal authorities has aroused the indignation o f the already overbur dened taxpayers. As to the real inward welcome of the kaiser, there is less certainty. Despite glowing panegyrics o f the Viennese new.-papers and their assev erations o f gratitude for Germany’s support in the dark days of the Balkan crisis, coupled with declarations that the future interests o f the two empires w ill be still more closely united, poli ticians are afraid that Austria has given Germany a heavy mortgage on her future. Austria may be forced to join Germany in any foreign policy the latter chooses to adopt. Drives Capital to America. London, May 18.— As a result o f the proposed increased income tax in the budget submitted by the chancellor of the exchequer, Lloyd-George, the Duke o f Bedford, extensive landholder and scientific farmer, is to invest $2,500,- 000 in California, according to a report current here today. The immense Thorney estates in Cambridgeshire were recently sold to the government by Duke o f Bedford fo ra sum in excess of $250,000.

Colorado Springs, Colo., May 18.— An additional precaution to insure the carrying out of the wishes o f the“ dry” element of Colorado Springs, victorious in the recent local option election was supplied tonight in an ordinance pre sented to the city council by City A t torney C.

Railway Travel Growing Safe. Chicago, May 18. —According to a report made public by the Pennsylvania linea, the system carried 141,659,543 paaaengers over 23,000 miles of rails without the loss o f life to a single pas senger train from train accidenta dur ing 1908. The number o f passengers injured throughout the year waa 102, a decrease of 81.6 per cent from the cas ualty liat o f 1907. Chicago, May 18.— Stores in tiers, with each tier connected by private elevator with the floors belov, is the innovation to be introduced in the downtown business section o f Chicago, and it is one that will be watched with interest. The new plan has been de vised to meet the urgent demand for more storeroom on State street. “ I f we can’t hove stores on the first floor, give us at least show space there and enough room to run our customers up to some floor above,” has been the cry o f those merchants anxious to lo cate on State street, but unable to find room, and the estate o f L. Z. Leiter is the first to meet this urgent demand. The Leiter estate has had architects prepare plans for the conversion of the seven-story building at the southeast corner of State and Jackson boulevard, which fronts 40 feet on State and 144 feet on Jackson. Arch:tects plan to divide the first floor into seven small stores, and arrangements w ill be made for tenants to have private elevators connecting with as much additional floor space on the upper floors as they require. __________________ B E AU TIFU L TE M PLE BURNED. Pride o f Japanese Buddhists and Its Treasures Destroyed. Tokio, May 18.— Sojaji, the famous Buddhist temple in Shiba park, Tokio, has been destroyed by fire at a loss of $ 200 , 000 . Only those who know the pride of the Japanese in their temples can con ceive the effect o f thiB irreparable loss upon the people. The Sojaji temple, next to the great temple at Nikko, probably was the most famous and pop ular Bhow temple in Japan. Its wonderful red gates, which will be rembered by thousands o f tourists, were saved from the flames, but inside the temple compound there remains only a lonely daibutsu o f bronze, sur rounded by piles o f wreckage and em bowered amid the blackened brancheg of overhanging cryptomeria. A few other gigantic pieces o f bronze stand out lonely amid the mass o f ashes, all that is left o f some o f the most won derful art treasures that were to be found in the Far East. The fire was set by a beggar who was living in a hole underneath the structure. The man was cold and started a little blaze with a newspaper and a few sticks for warmth. ONE MAN A T HEAD.

J., boasts a faithful maidservant, whose employers celebrated recently the golden anni versary of her service, Philadelphia has a servant who took her present place on the morning of Nov. 4. 1850, and Is still active in her duties, a bale octogenarian, says a dispatch to the Now York Herald. Her name Is F.llen Hume and. be fitting her remarkable record, the fam ily sbe has thus served fifty-nine years la one as old ns the city Itself, rep resented In this Instance by John T. Morris and his sister, Miss Lydia T. Morris, whose own house Is at 826 Pino street. It was by Mr. and Mrs. Isaac P. Morris, parents of her present employ ers, that Ellen Hume was hired as a housemaid so long ago. She was a rosy-cheeked Irish girl then. Just out of her teeus, and came from the home of Edward C. Dale, a son of the com modore who fought by Paul Jone9‘ side and was the first man from the Bon Homme Richard to board the Serapls. “ Of course, I did not know then that I was beginning anything any one would ever waut to write about,” said the old woman lu the Morris drawing room recently, “ and I don’t know why you should write about me now. I ’ve done my work the best I know how nnd had the kindest treatment, at.i that’s all there Is to i t ” Asked about the servant problem of to-day, she said: “ I think the mistresses themselves are a good deal to blame. You see, most young ladles are brought up now adays without knowing anything about housekeeping. Their mothers waut them to have pretty hands and the like and e.-en good servants can’t work well under such ladles. They don’t know how to manage. “ Then there are so many girls to day who would rather work In Stores nnd factories than In homes. They want to dress fine and they think they can be freer than when they hire out. But 1 don’t believe they get as much after all, for If you do the work yi*i’re paid for In a good home and take an Interest In the people you serve It Is very pleasant. "And If you're faithful you won’t come to want In old nge,” she added, with an air of great contentment. I Letters from Prom inent Physicians addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher. heo- S V . ItfS '~c, a James M. Greenwood, superintendent of the schools of Kansas City, Mo„ for thirty-five years, attracted attention as a mere boy by his superior ability In mathematics. At the age of sixteen he was at work on a plantation In Arkan sas. The principal of a private normal school In that vicinity had heard much about the boy, "Jim Greenwood,” writes Mr. Mowry in his "Recollections of a New England Educator,” and wanted to seo him, and on a certain Saturday he walked over to the farm where Green wood was living and Inquired for tha boy. He was told that the young man wns out In the field plowing, and he wns di rected how to find the place. When he came In sight he found the boy plow ing with a mule and a cow. The mule was balky and more de voted to kicking than to helping the cow drag the plow. The principal of the normal school, keeping out of sight, watched the process. After various at tempts to make the animal do Its duty. Greenwood took a rope, nnd making a slip-knot in one end, placed It round the lower Jnw of the mule, and tied the other end of the rope to the fet lock of that leg of the mule with which It was accustomed to do the kicking. Then going back to the plow, he gave the usual slgnnl for the team to atart. The mule, however, did not Intend to obey the summons, and Immediately began to kick. At once this became too serious an occupation. The slightest motion of the hind leg pulled severely upon the lower Jaw, and the kicking stopped. Then Greenwood took off the rope, returned to the plow-handles, and re peated his command to go ahead. The team started, and plowed straight on ward without any further difficulty. The schoolmaster could not well avoid the conclusion that a youth who had the skill thus to conquer a refrac tory mule would succeed In managing schoolboys. He Instroduced himself to Greenwood, talked with him about his arithmetic, and asked him if he would like to come to the normal school and study. “ What do you want to tantalize me for? You know I can’t go.” “ You can’t go? For what reason?" “ I can’t afford It.” “ But supi>oae I should offer yon board and tuition for teaching the younger echolars? I f you will accept I will make the bargain with you.” “ I f you mean It, I ’ll come.” "When will you commence?" "N ext Monday.” So the youth left bis plow and began his course In the normal school.

General Schefket Central Figure In Turkish Affairs. Constantinople, May 18.— Muhmid Schefket Pasha, commander o f the Turkish Constitutional forces, both on land and sea, is the man most fre quently in the thoughts o f those ob serving or dealing with the confused politics o f the day in Turkey. He is the one quiet figure upon whom rests the preservation o f order. The civil branches o f the government look to him to impose their liberal rule upon the empire and to deal promptly with persons and factions dangerous to the state. The skill and celerity with which General Schefket brought the third army corps and part of the second army corps before Constantinople and occupied the capitol have amazed the foreign military men here. Besides those attached to the embassies, seven officers came from Germany and five Britiah.officers from Egypt to observe the development of the campaign. They have not ceased to discuss the de tails o f the Constitutional commander’s arrangements. “ The army is merely an instrument o f civil pewer,” said General Schefket today. “ The army and I, as an officer in it, derive our authority from the national assembly. The army is a fin ger o f parliament only, and works un der the w ill o f the cabinet.” The general had an hour’s talk with Hilni Pasha, the grand vizier, at the conclusion of which he said: “ The grand vizier and I are in perfect ac cord. We have obstructions to over come in our progress toward free and stable institutions. I hope we will rise above them.” Save the Babies. NFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize th at of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say th at a timely use of Castoria would save a m a jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say th at many of these mfantilo deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you. m ust see th at it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever. A « Apcrferl Remedy for Constipa lion, Sour Stomach.Diarrhoea Worms ,C omuls ions.

The formula contains nothing deleterious to the most delicate of children." Dr. C. G. Sprague, of Omaha, Neb., says; “ Your Castoria Is an Ideal medicine for children, and I frequently prescribe It. While I do not advo cate the indiscriminate use of proprietary medicines, yet Castoria Is an exception for conditions which arise In the care of children.” Dr. J. A. rarker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “ Your Castoria holds the esteem of tho medical profession In a manner held by no other proprie tary preparation. It Is a sure and reliable medicine for Infants and chil dren. In fact. It Is the universal household remedy for Infantile ailments.” Dr. H. F.

I can furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to Its efficiency and merits.” Dr. Norman M.

The samples gave strong reactions o f ammonia by chemical analysis and were even tinted with the color o f liquid manure. One particular sample was thus polluted from a flower bed near the house, the flower bed having been heavily ma nured. In localities where water is piped in to the house and there is no sewer, the toilets should be connected with a prop erly constructed septic tank and the effluent should be piped a long distance from the well and empty on the surface o f the ground, where sun and air may still further purify it. I f an open clos et must be used, a concrete vault, well cemented, should be constructed, in stead o f a mere hole in the ground, and lime frequently thrown into it to pre vent the breeding of flies. Earth clos ets have been very successful and con sist of galvanized iron trays or tubs that may be emptied away from the premises; dry earth or ashes should be used in connection with them to absorb moisture and suppress odor. It is well known that nlea breed in human and animal manure; for exam ple, the deposits o f human excreta are often seen to be a crawling mass of maggots, these are the larvae hatched from the egga deposited by flies, from this they pass into the pupa stage and again emerge as flies with the return o f warm weather. These flies enter our^lwellings, walk upon our food and directly transmit the organisms from excreta to our food. Contanimation does not cease at that, for we have definitely proven that the organisms which the flies take into their bodies from the excreta are not destroyed by their digestion, and passing from their bodies with the excreta the germa util ize this excreta for food and multiply. Therefore a fly speck containing fifty germa will increase its numbers fifty fold. I f perchance the organism happens to be the typhoid bacillus, a fly speck upon an apple, or other food, will eventually contain thousands o f germs. This we have conclusively demon strated by hatching flies in a sterile box, then feeding them with bread or sugar saturated with cultures o f the typhoid bacilli, then allowing them to excrete upon apples, cabbage leaves, other material that gives off moisture. The fly speck, after some time, as sumes the form o f a colony and is found to be loaded with living typhoid bacilli, showing that they had passed through the fly uninjured and had mul tiplied abundantly in the fly’s deposit. It is well known that milk ia an ideal food for typhoid bacilli, and for that reason should be well guarded from the invasion of flies.
