It is a watery condition o' the blood which causes untold misery and often leads to other and even more serious diseases, if not attended to. It is characterized by a pallid com plexion, pale lips dull eyes, tongue and guni3 bloodless; shortness of breath on slight exertion — espe cially upon going upstairs; palpita tion of the heart, feeling of impend ing death; weakness, los.i of ap petlte and ambition; irregularity ar.d pain in the natural functions of women.

F, The above fac simile of the pardon granted Dr. Lewis D.

Fla., Oct. 8.—Accord ing to the story' of little Pinkie Joyce, an abduction has been committed in this city in which she and her sister Katie are the victims. Pinkie Joyce is 14 years old, while her sister Katie is 16. Both are good looking, respectable girls. Since Saturday night they have not been at home, and their disappearance has caused alarm. Pinkie was found yesterday and told of experiences while absent, which, if true, form an ugiy story. According to her statement, two con tractors, young white men, Wc-sley Self and N. M. White, have repeatedly vis ited the house lately in the absence of their father, James Joyce. Saturday night the girls were on the piazza of their home when Self and White called. The visitors tried to make the girls dissatisfied with their condition and pictured to them fine clothes, diamond rings and a* life of luxury. The men agreed, according to the girl’s statement, to take them to Pablo, a nearby resort, where they would re side at the hotel for the winter. The prospects of fine clothes and jewels was too much for them, and they left. In stead of going to Pablo, however, they separated, and Pinkie was taken to Cure Too Expensive. Warts are curious things. They come and go mysteriously, although their going is frequently marked by exasperating delays, and there are al most as many infallible cures as there are warts, the only trouble with these cures being that they are useless when applied to the particular wart you hap pen to have. They are only good for other people’s. “In my opinion,” said a clubman, who was discussing the subject with a friend one day, “a wart is merely the outward correspondence of some men tal excrescence. Get rid of that, and it goes away. “Let me give you a bit of my own ex perience,” he continued. “Last year I went to Europe. For about three years I had had a wart on my little finger, on which I had tried everything I could hear of, but without effect. It only grew larger. “Well, in the excitement of prepar ing for the trip and of the journey it self 1 forgot aii about my wart, and when I looked for it about six weeks later it had vanished without lcavin the slightest mark. I simply forgot it. and it had no mental condition to feed on. I see you have one on the back of your hand. Forget all about it for a few weeks, and it will go away of it self.” HERE’S THE OPPORTUNITY The Southern R. R. Announces tin.

Shattuc of Ohio, chairman of the immigration committee of the house, saw the president today in regard to a bill he will introduce on the reassemb ling of congress, having for its object the suppression of anarchistic literature and speeches in this country. Mr. Shat- tnc said that the proposed measure would be made as drastic as possible. The members of the industrial commis sion called on the president today as a body to pay their respects.

Miss Clara Whit man. his sister-in-law, was sweeping the floor atthe time, ana it is not known whether she struck the gun with her broom or whether the door was pushed against it, but it was discharged and the load struck the young lady in the eye, tearing off the entire upper part of her skull, killing her instantly.

The fire was discovered in the large cigar factory of O’Halloran & Co., and, as the water supply in West Tampa was inadequate, the department from Tampa could not check the flames. The fire spread from the factory in both directions, and then crossed the street, consuming everything in its wake until it practically burned itself oat. It is almost certain the fire was of incen diary origin. Alleged Murderer Arrested. Jacksonville, Fla., Oct. 8. — On a charge of murder committed at Holly Hill, S.

The habit of describing things as “awfully jolly" was amusingly satir ized by a gentleman who came home prepared to chat on events of the day. An acquaintance had failed in busi ness. He spoke of this incident as “de liciously sad.” He had ridden in an omnibus with a friend whom he de scribed as “horribly entertaining,” and to crown all be spoke of the butter which had been set before him at his restaurant as “divinely rancid.” “Why, dad, you are going off your head!” said his youngest and most im pertinent daughter. “Not in the least, my dear,” he said pleasantly. “I’m merely trying to fol low the fashion. I worked out ‘di vinely rancid’ with a good deal of la bor. It seems to me rather more ef fective than ‘awfully sweet.’ 1 mean to keep up with the rest of you here after.

One of the most singular looking creatures that ever walked the earth or “swam the water under the earth” is the world famous man faced crab of Japan. Its body is hardly an inch in length, yet the head is fitted with a face which is the perfect counterpart of that of a Chinese cooly, a feritabie missing link, with eyes, nose and mouth all clearly defined. This curi ous and uncanny creature, besides the great likeness it bears to a .human be ing in tiie matter of facial features, is provided with two legs which seem to grow from the top of its head and hang down over the sides of its face. Be sides these legs, two “feelers,” each about an inch in length, grow from the “chin” of the animal, looking for all the wdrld like a colonel’s forked beard. These man faced crabs fairly swarm in the inland seas of Japan.

A Devoted Mother. Although looked upon as vermin and destroyed accordingly, the weasel is a good mother and probably treats her young ones more kindly than many of her human enemies treat theirs. A weasei, carrying something in her mouth, was once seen to enter a hole in a tree. The observer, applying lighted straw, soon smoked her out. She then darted toward a stone wall, near which she was attacked by a terrier, which speedily slew her. She fell an easier victim because of the burden she bore in her leeth. Anxious to see what this was, the onlooker went forward and found it was a baby weasel. The moth er’s nest in a field close by had been plowed up, and she had been searching for another home. As her youngster could not run she carried it in her month rather than leave it to perish. Try one of our clubbing offers. Too much housework wrecks wo men’s nerves.
