Rheumatlsmj
Is a blood disease and only a blood remedy
can cure it. So many people make
the mistake of taking remedies which
at best are only tonics and cannot possibly
reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith,
Greencastle, Indiana, says: "For years
I have suffered with Sciatic Rheumatism,
which the best physicians were unable
to relieve. I took many patent i
medicines but they did not seem to
reach my trouble. I gradually grew
worse until I was uumpOk
able to take my food
J**or handle myself in
kK? any way; I was absobottles

GOOD BREEDING IN JAPAN.
Wherein the Oriental Excelit the Western
Born?Stories of Heara.
Lafcadio Hearu has probably done
more than any other man to make the
western world acquainted with the real
life of Japan. The story of this man's
life, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat,
is one of the strangest ever recorded.
His mother was a Greek, his father an
Irish officer in the EngHsh army. He
early had to shift lor himself and eventually
found his way to the limited
States. Here he was reduced almost to
the condition of a tramp, although he
was finely educated and a man of rare
gifts. At length ho secured employment
in newspaper work, and then his rise to
an exalted place in literature was rapid.
A visit to the West Indies awakened in
him the slumbering desire for a home
amid greater refiuemtlit and more aesthetic
influences than were to be found
in America or Europe and where elimati
conditions would be more to his
liking. He,settled in Japan, married a
Japanese wife, took a Japanese name,
embraced the Japanese faith and became
an oriental in evirv respect save birth.
He is now a professor in the university
at Tokyo. He is afflicted with an affection
of the eyes which makes it impossible
for bim to turn them iu their sockets.
A story is told that he did his first
work on an American newspaper in
Cincinnati. It is said that he applied
for work one night and was refused.
Just then a message came to the editor
to the effect that a murder liad been discovered
at the gas works. All the reporters
were out on assignments, and
the editor turned to the uncouth applicant
and asked him to look into the
matter and report. Hcarn returned in
the course of an hour or two and said
that a man had been murdered and his
body bad been thrown into one of the
furnaces. Hear 11 was commissioned to
"write it up."
Some time later, so the story goes,
the editor went into the room where
Hearn was writing and found him
stretched at length on a table with a
tablet under hrs face on which he was
writing, his affliction making it easier
for him to write in that position. The
- editor picked up several of the sheets
and perused the delicate handwriting.
He was amazed at the literary quality
and laid bis hand approvingly on the
writer's shoulder. A half savage growl
was the response.
"Oh, that's all right!" said the editor.
"You may give us all that kind of
stuff you can."
Hearn's story is known as "The Gashouse
Murder" and is regarded as a reportorial
classic. It secured for him a
permanent position and opened the door
to his future success.'
The Boston Journal has a somewhat
different story and relates it after this
fashion:
"They were talking at the Porphyry
about Lafcadio Hearn's book, 'Gleanings
In Buddha Fields.' 'Do you know
why Hearn determined to live in Japan':'
asked the professor. 'After he
left New Orleans he went to Cincinnati,
where he did newspaper work, lie
soon suffered terribly from au enlarged
and projecting eye that disfigured him
and made him grotesque. He was stared
at, he was mocked and insulted, and,
what was even worse, lie was pitied
openly. A sensitive man, he kept the
house during the day and took exercise
only at night. Occasion called him to
Japan. To his amazement, in that country
nobody, not eve 11 a humorous boy,
showed by sign or word that the sti anger
was disfigured or set apart in iav
ern, street, shop, Held. Mr. 1learn was
treated as though he were a normal being.
Thankful and overcome, he said to
himself, "Here is the laud of true civilization,
and here will I live and die."
He has taken to himself a Japanese
wife, he is known by a Japanese name,
and the last I heard from him he was
|
professor of English in a Japanese uni- ;
versity.'
"'Such civilization,' said the tele- i
phone expert, 'must be the result of j
generations of training.' Tim," an- >
swered the professor. 'The rude Jcpa- J
nese were undoubtedly put to death ;
years and years ago. 1 have seen much I
of their country, and never have I i
found there a boy who by look or gesture
would express surprise at any dress
or speech or habit that might seem to
him outlandish. How different- it is
here in Boston! And yet there has been
improvement. I remember that I was !
one of the first to wear a helmet sun !

yearly execution on the Common of the
conventionally rude would make much
for civic civilization. But if this cere- j
mony had been performed years ago j

ed.' " .
The Sinters aud the Silver.
Two young wcimn, sisters, lived !
with their widowed mother in a small !
country place. There had been some attempt
at burglary and not a few
tramps around. cue day the sisters
decided that they would not leave their
silver in the dining room, but remove
it up stairs. They got a large clothes j
basket aud heaped it full of the heavy
silver. By their united efforts they tugged
it to th? ron of the stairs, wheu the j
elder sister stopped i:n' oiliek. "\v ocre
mi* you tniii^' to take it':" she asked.
"Why, to your room, of course, niv
dear," replied tho younger>i>ter. "Not
by any means." replied the ohU-r. "Wo
will tako it iu your room." "I guess
not." said the younger. "I would latlit*r
lose it than havo it thorn." Tho result
was that tiny loft it at tin- top of
the stairs, in handy form for the burglar
to examine it without inconvenience
and carry olf all that lie wanted of it.
The next day they took it back to the
dining room, neithir making any comment,
and tin re it staid in future, us

Manufacture a Sacret.
I The most costly leather now in the
market is known to the trades as
j "pum? leather." American tanners
years ago discovered the secret of
making Russia leather, with its peculiarly
pungent and lasting odor, but
the secret of making piauo leather is
known only to a family of tanners in
Thuiingia, Germany. This leather
has but one use?the coveiing of
piano keys. A peculiar thing about
it is that the skins from which it is
tanned are prepared almost entirely
in America. It is a particular kind
| of buckskin. The skki of the common
red, or Tirginian, deer will not make
the leather, a species of the animal
kuown as the gray deer, and known
only in the vicinity of the gieat
nothein lakes, alone furnishing the
material. The German tanners have
au agency in the west which collects
the skins of this deer from the Indians
and the half breed hunters,
who supply the maikrt. When the
skins are returned to this country as
piano leather they cost the piauo
manufacturers from $15 to $18 a
pound. The world's supply of this
vivaluable and necessary material is
supplied by the Kutzcbmau family
of tanners, who have six establishments
in Germany, the largest in
Tuuiingia.
Rattlssnakes as a Mca^s of
Grace.
From that prolific land of good
stories comes the following:
An old fellow had three boys, bad
old boys, Tom, Dick and Harry, for
short, so bad that the old mau could
really only claim precedence through
l,i<5 more! Thnir fov llimffi
iilO > & O* X U\. ii +-/ Ul^> \%U T * V ?
games of old sledge and drinking
bouts were the scandal of the neighborhood.
It chanced that Tom was
bitten by a rattlesnake and with the
messenger for the doctor went a
runner for a well known old Methodist
parson.
The miuister came, lt.-verently
kneeling beside the bed of the thoroughly
frightened Tom he put up
the following petition: ' Ou Lord,
we thank thee for rattlesnakes. Lord
send one to bite Dick and one to bite
Harry and oh Lord in thine infinite
wisdom send the biggest SDake in
Georgia to bite the old man for nothing
but rattlesnakes can biiug this
ungodly set to repentance.
Postal Savings Banks.
Pittsburg Post.
The government savings batiks
have been succussful in Europe, but
conditions there are vastly different
from what they are in the United
States. We believe all the good results
of a savings bank system, under
Federal control, can be obtained
from carefully guarded State banks.
The deposits in ISOGby nearly (>,000,000
of people of about $2,500,000,000
in State savings banks and building
and loan associations does not indicate
that any considerable number of
people iu the United States have so
little confidence in banks and other
monetary institutions that they put
their savings up the chimney or bury
them in the ground. The average
Ameiican knows pretty well what to
da with his money without being
told.

is the spider. If there happens to
be a web in the secluded corner of
the poach, watch it carefully for a
few days or week and the spider
will unfailingly predict the coming
of storms. When the spider sits
quiet and dull in the middle of its
web, rain is not far off. If it be active,
however, and contiuue so during
a shower, then it will be of brief
duration, and suushine will follow.

Professor Swift says, "The thickness of

and tlte duration of the show* r is equal
to the time of the diagonal passage of
the earth through it. usually from midnight
to dawn." In- adds, "As there is

we know that there is a vast ring

The nieteoroids arc dark bodies, and
it is only when tlicy pass into the earth's

The length of the swarm is so enormous
that, although at perihelion it moves at
the rate of nearly h"> miles a second, yet
it takes it two years to pass the earth,
so that when its hinder part is still with
us its advancing side will have reached
the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn. Is'otwithstanding
this extent it is but a fraction
of the entire orbit. Professor Swift
says, "This great cluster will reach the
earth's orbit about June 1, 1S5W, but
the earth will not have arrived there
then, hut will be due nearly six months
later, when our planet will plunge into

England's Future Coal Supply.
"It- may now be accepted as geologically

Bath there occurs a more or less inte rtv/.ncrli
i kV / n?il tiiii!unrc< nt* 1 fif)
miles in length and of a breadth vaiying
from two to four miles, ism asured
from north to south." Dr. Hull believes,
however, that this Lrough is interrupted
by considerable flexures and
disturbances, and that it cannot be expected
to compensate for the possible
exhaustion of the Lancashire and midland
areas. Nor, though In; considers
that it must extend under the channel
toward Dover, does he think that it
could be worked under the tea to any
extent with prolit, as. except at an enormous
depth, the difficulties of intruding
water would be too great.
Taking each coalfield separately, Dr.
Hull discusses its probable lateral extension
under overlying strata, and, on
the basis tliaf* about 4.0UU feet represents
tbe downward limit of practical
working, he arrives at estimates in
round numbers of the amount of coal
that will be available at the end of the
century. The total for the United Kingdom
is 81,683,000,000 tons. As the output
of coal for 185MI was over 1 bo,000,000
tons, on the extremely improbable
assumption that the; rate of production,
which lias more than doubh d since
18G0, will remain practically stationary,
these figmos of Dr. Hull would give a
life of about 400 years to our coal mines.
Within this period, then, an enormous

probably of commercial conditions, is
