For a great many y ears doctor» pro nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it Incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu tional disease, and thsr-fore requires constitu tional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, man- uiactured by F. J. Cheney A Co., Toledo, Ohio, is i he only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of tlse Bystem. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it falls to cure. Bend for circulars and testimonials. Ad dress, F.

People marvel at the mechanism ol the human body, with its 492 bones and sixty arteries. But man is simple iu this respect compared with the carp. That remarkable fish moves no, fewer than 4.3NG bones and muscles every time it breathes. It has 4.320 veins, to say nothing of Its ninety-nine muscles. Fifteen years ago bumblebees were introduced into New Zealand to aid by their fertilizing agency in the cultiva tion of clover. A recent n port indicates that their beneficence lias extended be yond the clover fields. Before the ar rival of the bees, primroses, cowslips, pansies and other beautiful flowers never produced seeds under natural conditions in New Zealand. Now, fer- tlized by the bumblebees, those plants all seed freely. Claude Fuller, the English govern ment eutomologist in Natal, South Afri ca. says that the Basutos eat locusts, even making cakes of them, as lie is in formed. In Pietermaritzburg the na tives, and some of the whites, gather the flying termites that are attuicted by the electric lamps, ami usu them both for fish-bait and for food. They are sometimes toasted and sometimes fried in a pan with butter. He quotes from a friend the statement that bu- gong moths are cooked by the natives on hot aslies and eateu with great gusto. Printing of books with Braille type for the benefit of the blind lias made immense progress in England within the last few years. The Central lend ing library of Birmingham lias no less than 500 books printed with Braille type. This extensive library comprises tile works of such favorite authors as Shakspeare, Browning, Sir Walter Scott, Tennyson and Buskin. The Plym outh public library has also a similar collection of about 250 volumes, and numerous other libraries throughout the country possess similar collections for tlie entertainment of those deprived of their sight. The distance separating the earth from the sun is of so much Importance iu astronomical computations that it is sometimes spoken of as tlie "astrono mer’s yardstick.” An opportunity to increase the accuracy of this funda mental measure will be presented next December, when the recently discover ed asteroid Eros, famous for approach ing the earth nearer than does any other heavenly body except the moon, will be in opposition to tlie sun. The method of observation will be by mak ing photographs showing the position of Eros among the stars as seen from different parts of the earth. From the comparative displacement of the aste roid in the various photographs, owing to the separation of the points of ob servation, the distance of the sun can be computed. It is probable that these will be the most accurate measure ments of the sun's distance yet made. ^^cience COPYING DRAWINGS.

Some prac tice is needed in accurately tracing the lines of the drawing, because the pen cil point is accompanied by a refracted Image of itself.

Sbatt.reit by Hubert White, While Kn«leav«»i-lng to Core Hi mteir, XeaUe 1« Corluiiute Iti.cover/. From the Democrat, -helbyville, Ind. Near Waldron, Ind., resides Mr. Robert White, one of the beet known farmers of the community. He iB well situated, and just now has had an un usual share of good fortune. In his earlier days Mr. White was strong and athletic, but now while on the declining side of forty, hard work and disease have made liim a different man, although today he is iu good health. For a number of years he has been troubled with rheumatism, catarrh ol the head and stomach. Often iu bad weather his ailments would be aggra vated and he would be in a serious con dition. When the grippe visited this section seven years ago, Mr White was one of those attacked by this fearful disease a cl was confined to his bed for several days. After recovering enough to sit up for a few davs, concluded he was well enough to get out about liis work. He went out too soon. Most all pa tients do that. He bad a relapse and was confined to his bed for several weeks. His old disorders became greatly affected. The efforts of his physician, who had been attending him all the time, proved unavailing. The doctor was dismissed. Several oth ers were tried but their treatment was useless. Mr. White doctored himself and used many remedies said to be good lor his diseases, but he was not helped. He wtot to Matisville and took the baths, but they did him only tempor ary good. “It seemed impossible to get lelief,” saii he, “and I did not know what to do. “At last 1 was persuaded to try Dr. Williams’ Bink Bills for Pale People, and they cured me. I commenced taking them last June, and alter takiug five boxes, I was entirely cured. They relieved me from all suffering. Of course I suffered from rheumatism most, and I am now completely cured of that. I had tried two catarrh spe cialists, who were said to be good for the trouble, and they each said my case was incurable. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People cleansed out my system, purified my blood, and I am now strong and well. These pills relieved me of miserable suffering, and mv only regret is, that 1 did not have the good fortune to take them seven years ago. I have recommended the medicine to a number and the dealer in Waldron says he has a large demand for it.’’ It was nature’s own remedy that ac complished this cure caused by impure blood, for Dr. Williams’ l'ink Pills for Pale People are composed of vegetable remedies that exert a powerful influ ence in purifying and enriching the blood. Many diseases long supposed by the medical profession to be incura ble have succumbed to the potent influ ence of these pills. This universal remedy is.sold by all druggists. Ginger and Its Uiefi. In a hundred thousand farm houses the essence of Jamaica ginger is regard ed as on of the most valuable of family medicines. It is still used with sugar in the col<l water furnished to haying hands for drinking. It makes a whole some beverage for any one in hot weather. Persons of weak digestion will find a few drops of the essence useful if taken in water before breakfast with out sugar. Ginger tea, made from the root, is of service, like catnip tea or sage tea, to produce presperation in colds, or to stimulate the system after exposure. It is more palatable than the decoc tions of sage and catnip. In toothaches a bit of root ginger chewed slowly will remove the pain and make one comfortable till a dentist can be consulted Nearly all the good effects of alco holic stimulants can be secured front ginger. But the so-called ginger habit has to be guarded against. So has the cayenne pepper habit A Cemetery For bop, It Didn’t »tatter.
