"I find the trained nurses brave enough in most cases of'contagious dis ease." said a Brooklyn doctor, "but there is one thing at which they balk." "What's that," asked a friend "smallpoxy' - "No; cancer. They have all the un trained woman's horror of that dis ease. The most faithful of them will go without an engagement for weeks rather than take a cancer case. Yet the peril is slight compared with what they face almost without thought." "Isn't it contagious?" "A malignant case is if a scratched hand is brought Into contact with the cancer. Three cancers out of four, however, are not malignant and can be dressed without. gloves safely. The trained nurses balk at all of them." Brooklyn Eagle. Endorsed by a Minister. Rev. Parker Holmes, pastor of the first M. E. church, South Hickory, N.

In the days before the dawn of his fame it was the practice of a certain well known author to wander up and down the land seeking what he might devour in the way of suggestion and local color. In this way he had drifted into Arkansas. "roughing it," and not, as lie expresses it, presenting an ap pearance calculated to inspire a hotel proprietor with unlimited confidence. The only hotel in the town, a frame structure, seemed to have been built upon the theory that there was plenty of riom straight up, but that ground had to be bought, and the wanderer was shown to a room on the third floor. reached through many narrow and winding passages. From the one window it was a straight drop to the ground. '"Say, how would I get out of this place in case of fire?' he asked the landlord, who had brought up his grip. The other eyed him coldly. - "Waal," he drawled, "all yo' would have to do would be to show ther night watchman-the one with ther shotgun -a receipted bill foh yo' board an' lodgin' an' get him to tie up the bull dog."-Cleveland Leader. A Mission That Failed. The Sire de Joinville tells us in his "Histoire de St. Louis" how a certain Brother Yves of the preaching friars once met while crossing a street In Damascus at the time of the sixth cru sade an aged woman who carried in her right Land a bowl of fire and in her left a bottle of water. "Where are you going?' asked the Brother Yves. "I go," said she, "to burn up heaven with the fire and put out hell with the water, and so I will make an end of both." "And for why will you do this?" ask ed the friar. "Because," said she, "I would that we did good neither for the joys of heaven nor for the fear of hell pain, but purely for the love of God, who deserves so well of us and who is able to deliver us from evil."

Troubles of the Stomach, Heart or Kidneys are merely symptoms of a deeper ailment. Don't make the common error of treating symptoms only. Symptom treatment is treating the result- of your ailment, and not the cause. Weak Stomach nerves-the inside nerves-mean sto mach weakness, always. And the Heart and Kidneys as well, have their con trolling or inside nerves. Weaken these nerves and you inevitably have weak vital organs. Here is where Dr. Shoop's Restorative has made its fame.

One of the few walled cities in this hemisphere and perhaps the oldest, is that of Cartagena, Colombia, South America. The wall, which is still standing and -fh excellent couilition, stretches its irregular circumference several miles in inclosing what was one of the gayest, wealthiest and lar gest cities of the new world in the days of Spanish supremacy. It is said that $50,000,000 was spent in construct ing this wall, and it must be remem bered that three or four centuries ago that meant considerably more money than it does now. The wail is wide enough to accom modate several teams abreast. Its top is flat in most places, while at Inter vals there stand sentry boxes, showing that the wall was meant to guard the light hearted residents within its in closure from sudden attacks either by sea or by land. At one end of the wall near the sea is still to be seen the government pris on. Here there is a long row of cells, which are still kept for the use of pris oners. At present these offenders are much sought by tourists to the Spanish maIn, for many, of the men condned there have for sale exquisite carvings on shell and wood.-New York Herald.

A HEAVY MIDDAY- -E EL' The Business Man, it 1s Claimed Should Avoid It. The Americans and English begin the day with breakfast, which Is gen erally a substantial meal. This the people of the continent of Europe con sider barbaric and disgusting. - The Frenchman and the German breakfast on a scanty roll. They are consequent y unable to go till the afternoon with out absorbing something massive. The Frenchman toward noon takes a sub stantial lunch, and at midday the Ger man takes a heavy meal, which ab sorbs his digestive energies during the remainder of the day. The German dinner makes a big break in the work ing day, and the eater, according to Dr. Martinet of Paris, suffers by a loss of energy during the afternoon. The heavy midday meal Dr. Martinet con siders a mistake. One should not have dinner at noon, In the middle of one's workday, he says, but Instead should take a light lunch. The lightest meal of the day, he thinks, should be during the period.of exertion, and the heavy meal should be reserved for a later hour, when there Is a chance for di gestive repose. The proper series for the modern man, according to this.au thority, is a substantial breakfast, a light lunch about noon and a square meal at 6 o'clock or later.-Baltlmore Sun. A SLAB OF BLACK STONE. Key to All the Ancient Writings' of the Egyptians. There is a slab of black stone In the British museum which if you could walk away with it and establish your claim as the owner you could sell any day for a quarter of a million and find half a dozen money kings In -England and America ready to buy It There is nothing very striking about this stone. It might be a piece of black marble with some peculiar hiero glyphics upon it. But it Is just these hieroglyphics which make It so valua ble, because they are the key to all the ancient writings of the Egyptians, and without this stone, called the Ro, setta stone, we should be unable to read the Egyptian writings which have been discovered from time to time. Some French tourists' found the Ro setta stone in Egypt and transported It to Paris, where an Englishman took a fancy to it for a garden -ornament He paid E5 for it-5 sovereigns-and got a treasure which you could cover with gold and yet not represent its value, but till the day of fils death he did not know what that bit of stone was worth.-London World. Comet Panics. Joseph Jerome Lafrancals de -La lande, the'popular French astronomer of a century ago, differed from -New ton's view that Providence had so ar ranged matters as to make collision of the earth with a comet impossible and wrote a paper to prove that it was only very improbable. -This paper, which was to have been read with oth ers before the French academy on a certain day in 1773, got crowded out but the Parisian public, hearing of it, made up Its mind that Lalande had predicted the impending destruction of the earth and such panic ensued that the police had to order the publication of the paper to* reassure the public mind. But even then It was.'popularly believed that the paper had been delib erately toned down and comet panics continued for a quarter of a- century. The Printing Press. The most uiseful all round invention to humanity is the printing spress. - Generations ago some philosopher said, "In the world there is nothing great but man, and in man there is nothing great but mind." That Is to say, while there are many great things, the great est is mind. It -Is by and through his intellect that man has risen to the. mastery of the planet, and whatever sharpens the intellect at the same time advances the world's civilization. This the printihg press has done as nothing else has done, and therefore to th-e .printing press belongs, the -honor of being the most useful all round 'inven tion known to man.-New York Amern can. Origin of "Hurrahi" The history of many a race- may- be read in its battlecry. The "Bnai!" of the Jap-nese, the "Faghaghballah!" of the Iris and our own "Hurrah!" have found their origin far back In history. Although many authorities have de clared that the word "hurrah" Is a de velopment of the Jewish "hostnnah," - the consensus of opinion now is that it is a corruption of the ancient battle cry of the wild Norsemen, "Tur ale!" meaning "Thor aid us!" Formerly the word was spelled "huzza" -and pro nounced "hurray." In one form or another It Is used by almost every na tion.--Pittsburg Post Good Wearing Qualities.
