SCARED THE ROBBERS.
Odd Incident In England In the Eighteenth
Century.
Foe a time daring the eighteenth century
In England there wae a loll In
the robbery Industry owing to an odd
v incident Shortly after the execution
of go a"glla1' bandar "* nihtm
| a curious communication purporting
to bare boon written by him was put
Into circulation. "Now, as I am a dying
man.", ft ran, "I bare dons something
which may be of good use to the
public. I bare left with an booset
man?the only, honest man I was ever
acquainted with?the names of all my
wicked brethren, the places of their
abode, with a abort account of the
- chief crimes they hare committed. In
many of which I hare been the accomplice
and heard the rest from their
own mouths. I bare likewise eet
-down the namee of those we call our
setters, of the bouses we frequent end
all of tboee who receive and buy our
Stolen SOOlLl I ham inlamnl*
this honest man and hare received his
promise upon oath that whenever he
bears of any rogue to be tried for robbery
or housebreaking he will look Into
his list and If be finds there the name
of the thief concerned to send the
whole paper to the government. Of
this 1 here give my companions fair
and public warning and hope they will
take It" It Is said the hint was so
effectual that for a long time pickpockets
and burglars In that part of
England jrent into panic stricken retirement
And, this being so, it Is just
as well they did not know that the letter
was a clever forgery, the work of
_ "'tat prince of wits and humorists.

Origin of Ozone.
According to Messrs. Henriet and
Bonytsy, osone is produced by the
ultra vioU^rays of the snn In the upper
r? y Nm. and the amount con
- *n. hlr near th^ around 1%
w air currents descend
xrunrthe upper regions. Sometimes
also It increases daring rains. It has
been obeerved that there Is a reduction
of the proportion of carbonic add In
the air when the amount of osone ln*
creases. This is regarded aa an indlrect
effect due to dilution of the lower
( air by. the purer air descending from
above.

Consumption is preventible,
Dr. Simon Flexner asserts. He
is the head of the Rockefeller institute
for research. Experiments
with various animals, he
declares have shown -that the
newly found preventive had in
many instances rendered its
subject immune. The antidote
is called tuberculin. It acts upon
the~system as a sort of antitoxin.

FAKE PAINTINML
One of tho Ingenious Trloks of Km
Ploture Dealer.
Tho tricks of the picture dealer?
They are not to b? conoted. Hera la
one that was played quite recently. A
dealer ordered from an artist a tavern
scene In the old Dutch style signed In
the corner with a facsimile of Jao
Bteen'a signature. When the sinohjr
look of age had been given It the dealer
eyed It with approval.
"Splendid!" he said to the needy artist
"It's a pity you shouldn't have
the credit of It. Pray s'gn It with your
own name. It may make you** reputation."
The poor artist delighted, painted
over the signature of Jan 8teen and sat
his own name there. Three weeks
later the picture started for New York,
consigned to a Fifth avenue merchant
of paintings. But by the same boat
went an anonymous letter to the custom
house officials warning them that
an attempt was being made to smuggle
in a chef d'oeuvre of the Dutch
school worth $40,000. The picture was
seized. Experts were called In. They
scraped off the signature of the artist
and found underneath that of Jan
Steen. The Importer had to pay a fine
of 50 per cent?that is, $20,000?and in
| aarnuon *s,uuu aaty. Tnree days later,
however, he s61d his Jan Steen (guaranteed
by the United States government)
for the round sum of $50,000.
Thus he made a fair profit, for the original
cost of the picture was $14?70
francs paid to the poor devil of an
artist.?Broadway Magazine.
The old fashioned way of dosing
e weak stomach, or stimulating
the Heart or Kidneys is all wrong.
Dr. Shoop first pointed out this
error. This is why his prescription?Dr.
Shoop's Restoraiives?
is directed entirely to the cause of
these ailments?the weak inside
or controlling nerves, It isn't so
difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to
strengthen a weak Stomaoh.
Heart or Kidneys,if one goes at it
correctly. Bach inside organ has
its controlling or wside nerve.
When thes nerves fail, then those
organ* must surely falter. These
vital truths are leading druggists

One day during the rehearsals of
"The Tempest/' which opens with a
storm at sea, all the actors except
Beerbohm Tree knew that a real
storm was -raging outside the theater.
Mr. Tree never knows anything
at rehearsal time except that he
wants to get the best possible out of
his company. He was especially anxious
that the opening 6cene should
be rendered as true to nature as possible,
and time after time he made
the men whose duty it was to suggest
to the audience the ungovernable
fury of the elements repeat their
efforts. Presently a blinding flash
of lightning, followed by a deafening
peal of thunder, swept through
a narrow window above the scene
dock and illuminated the stage.
"That's better," announced Mr.
Tree, "but I think it could be improved
upon."
"If you please, sir," observed the
master carpenter, "that was a real
one."
Coughs that are tight, or distressing,
tickling coughs, get
quick and certain help from Dr.
Shoop's Cough Remedy. On this
account druggists everywhere are
favoring Dr. Shoop's Cough
Remedy. And it is entirely free
from Upturn Chloroform, or any
other stpefying drug. The tender
leaves of a harmless lung-healing
mountainous shrub give to
Dr. Shoop's Cough Remedy its
curative properties. Those leaves
nave the power to calm the most
distressing cough, and to soothe
and heal the most sesitive bronchial
membrane. Mothers should,
for safety's sake alone, always
demand Dr. Shoop's. It can with
perfect freedom be given to even
the youngest babes. Test it once
yourself, and see. Sold by Ladd's
drug store.
In the old days when the Spanish
province of Asagon was a proud and
Independent monarchy the people used
when choosing their king the following
singular form of election:
MWe, the freeborn Inhabitants of the
ancient kingdom- of Aragon, who are
equal to you, Don Philip, and something
more, elect yon to be oar king
on condition that yon preserve to as
oar rights and privileges. If In this
you should fall we own yoa for oar
i king no longer."
