!n Invisible Enemy to Health.
; Malaria is an invisible atmospheric poison. The air becomes infec-
[witli the gases and microbes arising from the marshes and low lands,
ttp cellars, sewer pipes, badly ventilated houses and decaying vegeta-
[ matter, and we unconsciously inhale them into the lungs, when
L' arc taken up by the blood and circulated throughout the system.
[ Malaria gives no warning of its coming; no immediate effects are
ti, and no violent symptoms appear until the unfortunate sufferer is
jipletcly at the mercy of this hidden foe. This invisible enemy may
following us night and day, but often the first intimation we have of
presence is a chilly, creepy sensation running over the body,
aetimes followed by a slight fever, and an always tired, drowsy and
fressed feeling. The blood soon becomes deeply poisoned, thinned
l weakened by the teeming millions of microbes and germs, and an
gular, slow circulation is the result. This condition of the
od gives rise to innumerable and serious troubles: torpid liver,
ement of the spleen, loss of appetite and feeble digestion, a
id or yellow skin, boils, carbuncles, abscesses, indolent ulcers,
and pustular and a.

IFor several years i suffered with Chills ami l ever,

civ cured me, ami I have never been troubled since.

detc and immediate relief, and I cannot speak too

scabbv skin erup
tions of various
kinds, are common symptoms of malaria.
Frequently the health becomes so impaired,
and such a lifeless condition ensues that the
person loses interest in his surroundings and
faith in all human remedies. Malaria, if
allowed to remain in the system, lays the foun
dation for other diseases that very often prove
fatal or permanently wreck the health.
Malaria can only be worked out of the
ft cm' through the blood, and a remedy that can destroy the germs and microbes and
[itralize the had effects of the poison offers the onlv hope of a cure, and the only medicine
can accomplish this is S. S. S., which not only purges the blood of all morbid, unhealthy
tter, hut keeps it pure and healthy. It searches out and destroys every trace of Malarial
Ison, and keeps tit#- blood in such a vigorous condition that poisonous matters of no kind
t allowed to accumulate, but are promptly expelled from the system.
ruling the spring is an opportune time to begin the fight against this invisible enemy,
1 the hot, sultry summer days will cause the germs to multiply and still further impov-
bh the blood and weaken the constitution, and now more than ever the Malaria sufferer
needs a good blood purifier and bracing tonic.
A course of S. S. S. at this particular season will
relieve you of Malaria and its attendant evils, reinforce
and build up the system, purify and strengthen the slug
gish blood and quicken the circulation, when the appetite
and digestion improve and all the vital powers rapidly
recuperate under the invigorating tonic influence of this
[ at vegetable remedy. Its freedom from all minerals makes it the ideal remedy in all
larial troubles and perfectly adapted to the most delicate constitutions. •

“There Is linnlly a. living creature,”
Said a naturalist, “that will not permit
u human being to touch it if it is done
in the right way. It is necessary to
be gentle and patient and at the same
time without fear. I have seen natives
scratch the heads of tigers and lions
within a few days after they were
trapped. Hunters of wild elephants
often crawl among a herd and mb
their 1 _»gs. The great brutes, although
they ar-2 on the alert, will permit the
caress and stand still until the plucky
hunter is able to slip a rope around
the leg of the animal he wishes to cap
ture.
“In our own country I have seen
many meu who can creep to a trout
stream and gently place their hands
under a trout. Very softly they rub
its belly, and the trout will lie quite
still until with a sudden jerk it is land
ed on the batik.
‘‘I have also seen professional rat
catchers put tlicir hands, palm upward,
before a rat bole when the ferrets were
driving them. As a rut ran out it
would sit still on the rat catcher's
hand. Then with his other hand he
would stroke it delicately, and in three
times out of four he would manage to
lift the rat without alarming it and
drop it into his hag.
“I have even known a man who could
handle the salt water blue crab, the
Uiost belligerent and vindictive crea
ture in the sea.”

Through a narrow street lined with
shrines, temples and shops the way
leads toward the sacred river. Here
Vn*l there it is necessary to pick one’s
steps, one of the tirst sights to at
tract the eye is a deail rat festering be
fore the door of a dwelling, and the
rats ate said first to have spread the
plague at Bombay. A moment later a
dirgelike cry breaks upon the ear. It
is “Until, limn. Ham:" In memory of
the saintlike prince of ancient India,
lit- hearers are carrying a body to
burned. So narrow is the street
that it becomes necessary to crowd
back against a temple wall to let the
dead pass by. The body is wrapped in
muslin, and the face is covered. The
pall is sprinkled with drops perhaps
of rosewater, perhaps of the sacred
Gang s. This is the path of the dead.

Thomaa Jefferaon, Farmer.
Like Washington, Jefferson delighted
in farming. “The hope of a nation,”
be wrote in his youth, “lies in the till
ers of tlie soil.” In his final retirement
at Mouticello a guest addressed him
ceremoniously as “President Jeffer
son.”
“Farmer Jefferson,” the distinguish
ed statesman Interposed. “I would
rather be Farmer Jefferson than to
have all the titles of Europe.”
Ills garden book, covering a period
of half a century, shows tlie precision
with which he farmed at Mouticello.
Here, for example, is an excerpt from
his memoranda for July of one year:
July 15.-Cucumbers came to table;
planted out celery: sowed patch of peas
for fall; planted snap beans.
July 22.—Had the last dish of our
spring peas.
July 31.- Had Irish potatoes from tbe
garden.—Leslie’s Monthly.

In Styria and (’arinthia it is known
that an arsenic eater can never be bro

compulsorily kept from the eater death
rapidly ensues. It Is believed in the
Tamar—and this is perhaps true—that
an arsenic worker is fit for no other
work. He-must remain at this occupa
tion. Health and breath fail him at
other employments. Eventually It may
be that chronic arsenical poisoning en
sues. But this may he staved off, if not
wholly prevented, by scrupulous clean

in the “changing house,” but to bathe
freely at home. As one of the foremen
said to the writer, “Against arsenic the
best antidote is soap taken externally.”

Tlie Smile* Faded.
A pretty American girl traveling In
England was sorely tried by the an
noyances and stares to which she was
subjected on account of her American
“peculiarities.” She went into a shoe
shop in lx)iidon to buy a pair of shoes,
and the clerk tried on innumerable
pairs of veritable ‘boats,’ as she called
them, much to the amusement of two
Englishwomen customers seated near
by. who regarded ner through their
starers’ as if she were some strange
animal in n menagerie.
Finally the clerk said apologetically:
“We ’aven't anything narrow enough
for you. miss. You see, miss, our ladies
! have wider feet because they walk so
l mu* h. miss.”
he two Englishwomen smiled with
the air of superiority that she had met
for so long, and she felt she could
Mai d it no longer. “I)o they walk on
their hands, too'/” she flashed out.
Dincovered Bilked Snuff.
A Limerick tobacconist of the name
of Lundy foot, doing a comparatively
small trade, was unfortunate enough
to have his establishment destroyed
by tiro. On visiting the ruins next day
he saw some of liis poor neighbors
among the debris gathering the half
baked snuff from the canisters which
had not been entirely destroyed by the
fire. He tasted what be considered the
worthless article and to his surprise
found that the heat from the fire had
added pungency and aroma to the snuff.
Profiting by the discovery, the shrewd
Irishman at once set about baking bis
snuff in ovens, and the fame of tbe
“Blackyard snuff” was established and
an immense fortune soon made by
Lundy foot, founded upon a mere acci
dent and growing out of a misfortune.
Purely For Ornumpnt.
The trained nurse has to meet many
curious conditions which arise among
her poorer patients. One of these faith
ful women who had a sick girl in
charge in a miserable tenement house
noticed that the oranges which had
been provided for the fever patient
were not eaten. They were pluced in
an old cracked blue bowl on a little ta
ble by tbe sick girl's bed, and there
they remained untouched.
“Mary,” said the nurse one day,
“don't you like oranges?”
“Oil, yes’m.” answered the girl.
“You haven't oaten any of these,” the
nurse* suggested.
Mary’s mother answered. “Oh, miss,”
she said eagerly, “Mary, she e't a half,

any more ’cause it looks so nice an’

A correspondent of the Scientific

stropping his razor: “Every one knows
that metal expands with heat. I put
my razor, handle kept out, just before
stropping in boiling water and leave it
until it lias absorbed as much heat ns
I can stand in handling. While tbe
blade is hot I strop it well. Tbe metal
cools as I strop. In about twenty-five
strokes the edge is sharpened and is
keener when cold, for the metal con

Posterity of Drnnkarda.
A professor of Bonn university in
tracing the posterity of habitual drunk
ards has found S34 descendants from a
woman who for forty years was “a
thief, a drunkard and a tramp” and
whose miserable life came to an end in
the last year of the eighteenth century.
The professor 1ms traced the lives of
709 of this woman’s descendants from
youth to old age, and of these 142 were
beggars and 04 more lived on charity.
There were in the family 70 convicts,
including 7 murderers. The professor
estimated that in seventy-five years
this family has cost the German au
thorities in almshouses, law courts,
prisons and other institutions about
$1,250,000.—Chicago Journal.
