Eczema, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum,Tetter and Acne Belong to that class of inflammatory and disfiguring skin eruptions that cause more genuine bodily discomfort and worry than all other known diseases. The impurities or sediments which collect in the system because of poor digestion, in. -tive Kidneys and other organs of elimination are taken up by the blood, saturating the system with acid poisons and fluids that ooze out through the glands and pores of the skin, producing an inde scribable itching and burning, and "I can cheerfully endorse Four S.

Cresswdfe n addlnfgfr ManingTims loc.ousdingEE.lin TWO MEN AND A MORAL. An Incident That Supplies Consider able Food For Thought. These ought ye to do and not to leave the others undone. A pale young man sat down on a bench in the park. He put a torn bag of tools under the bench. A small, red faced man came behind him. He stooped to steal the bag. The pale man turned and said in a slow, tired way: "Drop that. It ain't worth stealing." The ruddy man said. "Not if you're lookin'." The pale man set the bag at his feet and said: "It's a poor business you're in." "You don't look as if yours was any better." He sat down. "What's your callin'?" "I'm an ironworker; bridge work." "Don't look strong enough." "That's so. I'm just out of the hos pital; got hurt three months ago." "I'm just out of hospital, too," he grinned. "What hospital?" "Sing Sing." "What? Jail?" "Yes; not bad In winter, either. There's a society helps a fellow after you quit that hospital. Gives you good clothes too." "Clothes? Is that so?" "Gets you work" "Work-good God! I wish they'd get me some." "You ain't bad enough. Go and grab somethin'. Get a short sentence; first crime. Come out and get looked after by nice ladies." "My God!" "Didn't they do nothin' for you when you got out of that hospital?" "No! Why the devil should they? I'm only an honest mechanic. Are you go in'?" "Yes. I've got to go after that job. It'll give me time to look about me. Gosh, but you look bad! Goodby." The ruddy man rose, looked back, jingled the few coins in his pocket, hes itated and walked away whistling. The pale man sat still on the bench, staring down at the ragged bag of tools at his feet.-Dr. Weir Mitchell in Cen tury. SOME WRITERS. Buffon wrote in lace ruffles and Alex andre Dumas in shirt sleeves. Milton composed his "Paradise Lost" on a large armchair, with his head thrown back. Bret Harte's first literary success was a little book called "Condensed Novels," in which he parodied some prominent novelists of the day. Austin Dobsin, the poet, wanted in early life to be an engineer and was preparing for that profession when his parents persuaded him to enter the civil service. When Fox had eaten heartily, he would retire to his study, envelop his head in a napkin soaked in vinegar and water and work sometimes ten hours in succession. Allison Is said to have consumed twenty-four years In the preparation of his "History of Europe," but many im portant literary enterprises were also carried on by him during this time. It is related of Hall Caine. the novel 1st, that he once worked in the Laxey lead mines, in the Manx mountains, in place of a young man who was ill to keep the young fellow's position for him. Mrs. Bolton, the Indiana composer of the once popular song "Paddle Your Own Canoe," received the inspiration to write while sewing and fitting the first carpets for the old statehouse of A Conese Man and a Quotation. Some one once said, "A Harvard man knows all literature but the Bible," a startlingly sweeping generality, but not without truth so far as the Bible is concerned. A case in point came to light the other day. Two Harvard men were reading together some famous modern orations, one of them a eulogy. The eulogy closed with the words: "0 death, where Is thy sting? 0 grave, where is thy victory?" "What a beautiful closel" exclaimed one of the students enthusiastically. "The man who wrote such a sentence as that proves that the grand style in prose did not die with the eighteenth century." It should be added in fairness that the other student was a churchman and said nothing.-New York Tribune. "It's the Cut." An aged country rector who had an old tailor as his clerk, returning from his church one Sunday with the latter, thus addressed him: "Thomas, I cannot think how it is that our church should be getthng thin ner and thinner, for I am sure I preach as well as ever I did and ought to have far more experience than I had when 1 first came among you." "Indeed," replied Thomas. "I'll tell you what; old parsons nowadays are just like old tailors, for I'm sure I sew as well as ever I did in my life, and the cloth is the same, but It's the cut. sir, a it's the new cut."-Pearson's. Book Plates. The question of the use of the family coat of arms vexes the American very seriously. Originally all book plates were heraldic. That was in an age when people generally could not rend and when the blazon of each family, as shown on wearing apparel or small be longings, was as well known and quick ly distinguished as an autograph or photograph today. In the main, it is safe to advise Americans not to use coat armor on their book plates. The uncertainty of the actual right to arms and the extreme difficulty of getting a drawing that one knows is undeniably correct in every detail are strong rea sons against its use. Heraldry is too exact a science to admit of liberties, and it is no small achievement to draw the coat of arms with absolut'e correct ness and yet with artistic feeling. Though it iS not very generally prac ticed, it is legal to copyright the book plate design. At least two plates are so protected in this country. This would seem to leave a door open for those who wish to secure for themselves a per sonal distinguishing mark, a quasi heraldry, for the drawing may be in heralie form as well as in any other. Century. The Appropriate Vehicle. "She seems to be a stickler for doing everything appropriately." "I should say so. She always does her marketing in a basket phaetbnl." Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. Gossip is unfair. It Is more persistent about a man under suspicion than it Is about a man ,well known to be tough. Atchison Globe. If a boy is perfectly healthy and nor mal, a quart of raisins which he is given to stone will dwindle to a half Tung Po and Teamaking. There is but one way of making tea, for Unless the water boiling be To pour on water spoils the tea. The teapot itself should be heated very hot before the tea is placed in it and the boiling water poured on. It should be scalding hot water, or the leaves will float to the top. No less authority than Tung Po, the Chinese poet, is quotsd for a recipe for teamaking. He says: "Whenever tea is to be infused, take water from a run ning stream and boil it over a lively fire. It Is an old custom to use running water, boiled over a lively fire. That from springs in the hills is said to be best and river water the next, while well water is the worst. A lively fire is a clear, bright charcoal fire. When making an infusion, do not boil the wa ter too hastily. At first it begins to sparkle like crabs' eyes, then somewhat like fish's eyes and lastly it boils up like pearls innumerable springing and waving about 'This is the way to boil water." A teaspoonful of tea for two cups, with one for the pot, is the rule. Saint's Powder Recipe. In Germany and Italy great honor is paid to St. Barbara, but until now no one has been able to discover the exact reason. A German officer says that she :Is honored because the invention of pow der is In a large measure due to her. Berthold Schwarz, a monk, he ex plains, opened the "Lives of the Saints" on St. Barbara's day and read the story of her martyrdom, after which he reasoned as follows: "The heart of the Virgin was white as salt, the soul of her tormentor was black as coal, and It was sulphur from heaven which punished him for his cruelty. I will mix these three things, and it will be a wonder if I do not dis cover the philosopher's stone." He did mix them, and as soon as he put the mixture in a fire a tremendous explosion followed. Such, according to German soldiers, was the origin of gunpowder. The Wedding Gift. It is a golden rule to send a wedding gift in good time, the first to arrive be ng much more appreciated than that which is one of the many pouring in from all quarters during the last week. By adhering to this rule one will be saved the annoyance of hearing that the salteellars are charming-the third set already received. A month before the wedding day Is not too early to send the present, which should be accompanied by a visiting card. The package should be addressed to the bride, if one is intimate with the happy couple, and to the bride's house, addressed to the bridegroom, If It Is he with whom one is best acquainted. The Diagnosis. There are things that only a doctor can successfully accomplish, and there are other things which the phy sician may safely relegate to a compe tent assistant. "I understand the doctor has just been to see your husband, Mrs. Mc Carthy," said Mr. McCarthy's employ er. "Has he made a diagnosis?" For a moment Mrs. McCarthy was submerged in a sea of doubt, but she rose triumphant. "No, sorr," she said confidently, "he left It to me, him saying I was well able to do it, sorr. It's to be made wid linseed on a shtout muslin, sorr." Sagacity. "Why, yes, I have seen a good deal of Tom Robinson recently. Fact Is, he's one of the most entertaining men I ever met. Really, I didn't know there was so much in him. He's positively brilliant when you get him talking. ost delightful companion and so hos pitable and" "I see. Which of Robinson's sisters is it-the little one with the black hair or the tall blond one?" "It's the little one with the black hair." The Niurnber "Three" In the Bible. When the world was created, we find t and its surroundings composed of three elements-aIr, water and land the whole lighted by the sun, moon nd stars. Adam had three sons men tioned by name, and so did Noah; the patriarch. Daniel was thrown into a den with three lions for the crime of praying three times. Shadrach, Me shach and Abednego were rescued from the fiery furnace. Job had three spe cial friends. There were three patri archs-Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Samuel was called three times; Elijah prostrated himself three times on the dead body of the child; Samson de eived Delilah three times before she discovered the secret of his great pow er, and the Ten Commandments were delivered on the third day. Jonah was three days and nights in the whale's belly. "Simon, lovest thou me?" was repeated three times. Paul makes mention of the three graces faith, hope and charity. The famous allegorical dreams of the baker and butler were to come to pass in three days. Then we have the holy trinity Father, Son and Holy Ghost; the sacred letters on the cross were three In num ber, they being I. H. S.; so also the fa mous Roman motto was composed of three words-viz, In hoc signo. Sleight of Hand Poisoning. A very curious Item in toxicological lore I chanced to light upon, wrote George Augustus Sala in one of his let ters, may be called the feat of poison ing by sleIght of hand. You were jeal ous of a lady, and you wished to kill her. Well, you asked her to lunch, and you caused a very nice peach to be served at dessert. You cut the fruit with a golden knife, one side of the blade of which was endued with a deadly poison. You presented the poi soned half of the peach to the lady, who ate it with much relish and then dropped down dead. The wholesome half you ate your self and laughed in your sleeve and went on slicing more peaches; for the ladies of whom you were jealous till you were found out and broken on the wheel. Aye, there's the rub! What high old times we might have, to be sure, but for that plagny contingency of being found out! Outward and Visible Signs. Ambitious Young Woman-Tell me honestly, do you think I ever will make a great actress? Experienced Manager-Not unless you can subdue that bright and cheer ful smile. Haven't you learned by ob serving the pictures of great actresses that they all wear a look of tragic and] profound gloom?-Chicago Tribune. Lucky For the Ancestors. Is a great thing to have a fine line of ancestors." "Doubtless it Is, and it's a mighty good thing oo, that some of these fine ines of ancestors couldn't look into the future and see their descendants." Austrian Bulls. Here are a few "bulls" that have been perpetrated from time to time in the Austro-Hungarian parliament: "One most important point of the ag ricultural question is the maintenance of the breed of horses to which I have the honor to belong." "We are here for the weal and woe of our constituents." "Gentlemen, consider this question in the light of a dark future." "The eye of the law weighs heavily on our press legislation." "There, gentlemen, Is the ever chang ing point of which the opposition has made a hobbyhorse." "This taunt Is the same old sea ser pent which for years and years has been groaning in this assembly." Incidents In American History. A traveler who has just returned from a visit to Matanzas says that he visited El Cumbre, a short distance from the city, and there was reminded of an incident in American history with which be was entirely unfamiliar and which he is willing to bet not one American in a hundred knows any thing about He refers to the fact that a vice president of the United States took the oath of office there, being au thorized to do so by special act of con gress. El Cumbre means "the summit," and it was -bere that William Rufus King, vice president with Franklin Pierce, dying of consumption, was sworn into office March 24, 1853. An Ingesiious Beartrap. The Mexicans in California had an ingenious method of trapping bears before the advent of the Yankees brought modern firearms into the re gion. A piece of meat was nailed to the stout horizontal limb of an oak tree. From a limb five or six feet above a rope was suspended, to the end of which a large stone was made fast so that it hung about six inches above and a trifle nearer the trunk than the meat on the lower limb. When a bear smelled the meat from afar, he would climb up the tree and make his way to the bait In doing so he would push the stone pendulum to one side. Just as he was about to fasten his teeth In the meat the stone would swing back and bang his head. This would arouse the anger of the bear, and he would give the stone a sweep of his paw which would send it swinging farther out The conse quence was a harder bang and more anger. The more he struck the stone the harder he would be hit in return until from ferocious anger he would lose his caution and attack the pendu lum with all his vigor. One powerful sweep, then bang! and bruin would be tumbled out of the tree to the rocks below, where, disabled by his fall, he would be at the mercy of those who set the trap whenever they chose to take him. The Disadvantages of Heroism. It would be a good thing if in our public school courses in heroism to teach the boys and girls that, after all, while heroism is a fine thing and a great thing, it is a most uncomfortable thing and that possibly, on the whole, the best and most lasting work that is accomplished in life comes from a steady application of all one's best en ergies to a noble purpose, meeting with onest and patient effort the emergen cies and .vexations of daily life and holding true to the middle course, which assures success without bring ing notoriety. A fixed purpose to do well that which one has to do will In the end bring laurels of more perma nent value to the world at large and to the pnheralded hand that achieves its purpose than those which are even worthily bestowed upon the brow of him who avails himself of an unusual chance in an abnormal fashion.-Har per's Weekly. Smothered In Roses. The Syba rites slept on beds stuffed with rose leaves; the tyrant Dionysius had his couch filled with them; Verus would travel with a garland on his head and ar'ound his neck, and over his litter he had a -thin net, with rose leaves intertwined; Antiochus luxuri ated upon a bed of blooms even in win ter days and nights, and when Cleo patra entertained Antony she had roses covering the floor to the depth, it is said, of an eli. We are told that Heliogabalus sup plied so many at one of his banquets that several of his guests were suffo ated in the endeavor to extricate them selves from the abundance-victims of a surfeit of sweet odors. Swift Wings. It is difficult to account for the enor mous velocity of some birds' flight when migrating. The northern blue throat goes at the rate of 540 miles an hour, flying 4,800 miles from Egypt to Helgoland in a spring night of barely nine hours. Virginian plover fly from Labrador to north Brazil, 9,600 miles, without stopping, going at the rate of 30 miles an hour and probably more. How can this speed be attained? The birds resort to great heights, where the resistance of the air is slight Living in a Crater. There is no more Interesting or curi ous sight on this earth than the interior of the extinct crater, Aso San, about thirty miles from the city of Kuma moto, In Japan. This peculiar locality is Inhabited by 20,000 people, who live and prosper within its vertical wall 800 feet high. The inhabitants rarely make a journey into the outer world, but form, as 'It were, a little nation by themselves. How Greeley Learned to Read.

Aching Voids. "Brooks," said Rivers, "that's the second time I've heard you use the phrase 'aching voId.' I wish you would tell me how a void can ache."

Diogenes and Dogs.
