I think It Is the greatest remedy that { ever saw. Ttour. many of the persons with whom he comes in contact during business hours. Some thirty years ago a long-legged lad from the Orient came across the seas to this coast in the steerage of a steamer. He had first opened his almond eyes in the province of Sun Ming, a farming district. Farmers in China do not live on the land they cultivate. Space Is too precious. They bunch jheir families into compact little houses separated by alleys, and go dally forth to their till ing of the soil. In California, where ranches cover thousands of acres, a farmer turns a colt to pasture in a ten-acre lot. In China a man who owns ten acres is considered wealthy. The boy farmer had heard fabulous tales of the New World. They lured him from the raising of vege tables. He left his ancestral home and traveled to Ogden, Utah. There he went to work in somebody’s kitchen as a cook. But Chin Tan Sun, amid his new sur raundings, thought of other things than bread making and stove polishing and dish washing. He dreamed of wealth and power, though none would have guessed that he was other than an ex cellent household machine, content to go no further afield than the slip-slip sandled feet on a kitchen floor would carry him, until he could save enough from his wuges to insure the sending of his bones baek to China should he die in the’land of the white devils. A girl of Scandinavian parentage, good looking and industrious, was employed as domeslk in a neighboring family. Chin Tan Sun courted and married her. They came to San Francisco and commenced housekeeping on Jackson street in China town with the dollars that had been earn ed ill the Ogden kltcfren. Chin Tan Sun, keenly on the alert for an opportunity to begin the amassing of a fortune, con ceived a clever idea. This idea was the originating of the "little lottery" scheme. There were at this time fifteen Chinese lotteries running In Chinatown. Each con ducted two drawings daily. Chill put his Idea Into immediate practice and brilliant success followed. He opened what he call ed the American Lottery Company, selling tickets with numbers duplicating those of the fifteen gambling concerns. He sought American patronage and white peo ple began to play the Chinese lottery. He paid with instant promptness all winning claims, and in a year became a compara tively rich man. Chin Tan Sun developed marvelous busi ness capacity. He bought a small interest In numerous stores. He learned to speak English fluently. His dealings were In variably oil a cash basis, no mailer how large the sum involved. He opened up a dozen gambling houses in Oakland, whose windows displayed fans and punk sticks and bazaar articles In general as a "blind” to conceal the unlawful operations In the locked rooms back of them. He kept the police busy raiding the gambling Joints and himself busy lugging coin Into court with which to deposit cash bail for his employes who had been gathered In by the blue-coated arm of the law. Fines he paid with stoical Indifference. One day an Oakland Judge imposed a fine of ten times the usual amount In his determination lo teach Chin a lesson. Then Chin showed fight. Through his attorney he had the municipal records searched and the result turned Oak land upside down, for, to relate briefly, It was discovered that the fcharter was Invalid; that the court In which Chin’s agent had been convicted was not even a de facto court; nor would Chin con- I sent to have his man set free, though the Superior Court Itself, sitting en j banc on the case—an event that had never occurred there before— wanted to dismiss the troublesome matter. And so Oakland had to provide Itself with a brand-new charter, while the shrewdest Chinese that the law had to deal with laughed In his flowing sleeve; laughed •nd went on piling up wealth that could Picture of Health. "Graybeard d’id me more good than any thing I ever took In my life. I was troubled with Indigestion, shortness of breath, and was given a great deal of medicine by my doctor, but It did me no good. I saw Gray beard advertised and bought it, and it cured me. I began to gain flesh and weigh twenty pounds more than I did a short time ago. MRS. J. G. BROWN, "127 Lee street, Montgomery, Ala." Sound and Well. “I had congestion of the stomach-acute Indigestion. Last August when I wa bo bad off, I heard of Graybeard and got my daughter and son-in-law to send for the medicine for me. It did me more good than all the doctors ,and I continued ita use until now. I am sound and well; I am truly thankful for the discovery of bj great and wonderful a medlclno. “MRS. MARGARET A. OLIVE, Mt. Pella, Tenn. | buy every little garden patch in his na tive province, and still have enough to burn out all the punk sticks that China town could Import. During these years the Influence of Chin Tan Sim had been Increasing until it made Itself felt with respect and fear, not only in the Asiatic quarter, but be yond i< limits. He was a member of the Chinese Six Companies. He was one of a trio at the touch of whose yel low fingers the fortunes of their coun tryman were molded, made and un made. These three were Big Jim, Lit tle Pete and Chang Chung. “Big Jim” was now the name by which Chin Tan Sun was known throughout San Fran cisco. The long-legged lad from the Orient had grown into some six feet of very good-looking, smooth-shaven Chinaman, better proportioned than the majority of the Chinese. In business matters he was regarded as the soul of honor. Said a man who knew’ him well: “If Big Jim were to tell me that he would meet me at a certain place wlh in the hour to pay me SIO,OOO in coin I would know' that he would be there if he were alive. ’’ When Big Jim was starting one of his fruit canneries he went downtown and negotiated with a firm for $15,000 in ma terials. Then he gave directions for the supplies to be shipped at once. “\yhat security have you to offer?” asked the white merchant. Big Jim drew himself up with scorn. “I have no security to offer,” he re idled. "I have money. I want credit of no man.” From his pocket he drew a wallet, out of which he counted the $15,000 In gold notes and the trifling inci dent of purchase was closed. Big Jim Town, a Chinese settlement near San Jose, was at one time owned by Chin. He also has ranches scattered over the state, and contemplates start- inR a steamship line along the Chinese coast. His wealth is declared *o reach the multi-millionaire mark. A rich Chinaman lives his allotted time. His sons Inherit his wealth, and they do not abuse the trust. Obeying the commands of Confucius, must .pay all and any debts contracted by the father, but the father is not debts contracted by his sons. A fleh Chinaman attends banquets, where he drinks samshu and eals birds' nests, sharks' fins, seaweed and oilier' impossible delicacies near to the Chinese palate. He attends the con tinuous performance theaters. He em ploys several valets to care for his ward robe, which is magnificent. Sometimes he is so fastidious that he has three sets of coats and trousers embroidered In the same flower—rich display of buds !■ morning, blossoms for the afternoon and full-blown flowers for evening. In cidentally, he acquires a harem. Such are the opportunities Improved by Chin Tan Sun—not excepting the harem. And what of the white wife? She Is the white wife still. She Is living in Chinatown in her own establishment, provided with money and servants In plenty. She has never borne any chtl dr n by her husband. The calamity Is paramount to all others In Chinese eyes. Confucius has established a low that each family must have sons to per pptuate Its name. So a wife who Is childless gives her eonsent to the taking of other wives, who, however, are not recognized as such, for her place Is never usurped officially. The number of concubines Is optional with her master. The children of these women address the childless wife ns "mother." For their own mothers they have only a pet name. The second "wife” of Chin returned re cently from a visit to China. She has two fine sons, of which the father Is exceedingly proud. And the women of Chin's harem dwell together In such peace ns passeth the American feminine understanding. Every one remembers tht killing of Dyspepsia. Bloating after eating and a feeling of weight in the stomach are dyspepsia's symptoms—eructations of gas-—elck stom ach. heartburn, vertigo, all come along. Sour stomach, headache, general depres sion and great nervous condition follow. We hear women say that they cannot sleep, and that they feel light-headed as If at times they must fall.

Who can foretell the fate of the richest Chinaman In America? CARIOUS RESTING PLACES. Animals Which Perch on the Backs of Their Fellows. Prof. Charles Frederick Holder, in the New York Tribune. Any one who has crossed the Atlantic or Pacific cannot have failed lo notice the land birds which seek shelter and rest upon the vessel, often hundreds of miles from shore. Sometimes it Is an eagle that alights on the truck or yard arm; again a troop of delicate sparrows, or even a humming bird—all so weary and exhausted that they have lost all fear and almost seem to court the friend ship of human beings. A fisherman on the Maine coast who dally sailed out ten miles from shore said that he frequently was visited by shore ttids, which alighted on hts dory and made themselves perfectly at home. Such birds, and those which visit the steamers out at sea, have been blown from their caurse dicing the season of migration. Thus in the fall and spring long lines of migrating birds extend up and down the coast. The majority fly at night, high in the air. following the shore fine or a mountain range; and If caught In a gale arm blown out to sea they lose their bearings, become confused and fly on, alighting on vessels when perfectly ex hausted. When ships and boats are not Available birds will alight upon almost any object. 1 have seen a gull standing on the back of a sleeping loggerhead turtle In the Gulf of Mexico, apparently much at home; and the huge basking shark, which Is often seen floating on the surface, its brown bark exposed, has been observed almost rovered with sea birds, which un doubtedly thought a shark a log or a piece of wreckage, discovering their mis take suddenly when the shark rolled over ior sang beneath the waves. The Mnch nflfertn Pelican. The laughing gulls of the Gulf of Mex ico and Bouthern California waters have a singular fancy for roosting upon the back of the brown pelican, which I have often observed. But this is not always lo rest, as the gull reaches out when the peli can secures a sardine and often snatches It. Sometimes the gull roosts upon the round head of the pelican. Its wings held aloft in the effort to preserve Its balance. A singular feature of this Intrusion and impertinence on the part of the gull la that the pelican never resents It—at least not In the acores of Instances observed by me, so far aa appearances went, being aware that It was being trampled upon by the Inquisitive, laughing gull, which, when It had secured Its fish by the most barefaced methods, went flying away with a victorious "Ha. ha!" The Santa Catalina channel. In Southern California waters, Is a favorite field In summer for the giant mola, or aunflah— one of the most remarkable of all the den lzene of the sea; a rotund, chopped off creature which reeemblee nothing. Some wit ha* described It as the fleh that was originally very long, and waa chopped off to suit Its requirements, and apparently Rheumatism. Rheumatism originates from excosa o! acid In the blood. Impoverished and Impure blood. It attack© different parts of the body. It is sometimes seated In the muscles, some times In the parts surrounding the joints, and sometimes in th© Joints—hence the name muscular and articular rheumatism. When in the hips, it is called sciatic rheu matism; when in the muscles of th© bade, lumbago. Often when one goes to rise from sitting or stooping the sudden "catching:" is eo se vere that they some times cry out in pain. The feet and Joints are someUmes swollen without at first, causing a.*y particular pain. This symptom la sufficient. The all- * ment is getting a start on you. This is the time to take Graybeard. The safest euro for rheumatism is a thorough blood cleansing. Graybeard is a known specific for rheu matism. It checks the formation of acid, dissolves the acid deposit end produces a normal and rich flow of blood. Don’t hesi tate to ask for it. i ♦ A Boy Cured. Mrs. Hill, residing al 10’A W. Mitchell street, Atlanta, gave Graybeard to her son who was forced to stop work on account of a severe attack of rheumatism, and It cured him sound and well. Lost Use of His Arm "Since taking Graybeard I have regained use of my arm which was he’plcss by rheumatism. W. C. FLENNIKEN, "Kingston, Tex. You Get Strong. Everybody who takes Graybeard tells us they get stronger. They eat more and it does not make them sick. This Is the se cret of the curative powers of Graybeard. The first thing it does is to make you go to eating. You will eat more than you have eaten in months, and you will find it will not hurt you as it used to when you ate heartily. By making you eat .it makes you stronger. It makes you stronger as the new blood and bone and tissue begin to become port and parcel of you, and if you are afflicted with eczema you will find it gradually disappear. The same way with rheumatism, catarrh, dyspepsia, cancer. In short, Graybeard makes you stronger than your disease and crushes out your disease. - Graybeard Did It. "Like all others who are so unfortunate as to become a prey to Indigestion and bowel troubles. I tried various medicines and a number of th- best doctors to treat my case, but found only temporary relief until Graybeard was discovered. Th med- J this is what happened, as the fish has lit erally no tail, its place being taken by what appears to be a mere rim or frill, which can be moved to a llrfilted extent. The sunfish. like the basking shark, has a singular habit of lying on the surface in the wash of the waves, and is almost al ways taken for a piece of wreckage. In August in the Santa Catalina chan nel they are frequently broadside up, the pectoral fin slowly fanning the air—the only evidence of life about Ihe strange object. Why the fish takes this position is to a certain extent unknown, but I think it is due in some instances to the fact that the creature is infested with many parasites'■which live in the thick mucus which covers its skin, ami that ii endeavors to destroy them by exposing itself to the direct rays of the sun. Hiifie Hunlbii. These fish attain an enormous size. I was spending some weeks at the mouth of Ihe St Johns river some years ago, when a sunfish ran tiground on the bar, as would a ship drawing over ten feet of water. As soon as it struck it keeled over and began to thrash about, attracting so much attention that a boat was sent out to secure It. The fish measured from the top of one fin to that of the other eleven feet, ar.d must have weighed over one thousand pounds. An equally large speci men was taken off Redondo beach. Cal ifornia. They are sluggish fish, so that I have rowed alongside and hooked them with a boathook or gaff. One of the largest ever seen was har pooned off Santa Catalina Island a fen years ago. It was estimated at twenty feet across and to weigh two thousand pounds. The fish was lying prone upon the surface, and was so sluggish that it barely moved when the heavy harpoon was driven inhj It. It soon began to set tle, and It was the opinion of those in the boat that if the rope had not broken the giant would have dragged the launch beneath the water. These fish afford an excellent roost for various sea birds, and the spectacle of a sunfish bearing several gulls or a cormorant Is often witnessed; in such a case It might readily be taken for wreckage. It Is possible that Ihe gulls aid In free ing the Kgeat fishes of their parasitic en emies, alighting upon them as the little African bird enters the mouth of the croc odile, which patiently opens it for the pur pose. Such resting places are more or less unsteady, but by continual practice the birds become skilled in holding on. This Is well exampllfied by the gulls, which follow the steamers wnlch ply be tween San Pedro and Avalon, Cal. The birds follow (he steamer out and back, a flight of forty miles, nnd when they become weary they appear to take turns in blighting on the round golden bail w ntch surmounts the mast. This almost Impos sible resting place pitches about In all directions; now forward or ltaekward, or from side to side, sometimes Jerking the bird off; hut, as a rule, those feathered acrobats retain their position, even In the roughest weather. When the Ox Riter Gets Intllannnt. In Africa, especially In the great swamps, certain birds employ a variety of animals as roosts. A small white heron has a speeial fondness for Ihe rhi noceros, often being seen sitting on Its baek. its pure while body In sharp con trat to the black and mud-coverefl living roost. The great water buffalo is often known as ox biters, which run over Its hotly, dining to the long hair, ears or toll, hanging In dusters about the pa tient animal, and rise above it in clouds and flocks, uttering vociferous cries when the roost, perchance to relieve It self from the noisy throng, rolls In the deep mud of the swamp. The camel Is often used by several,birds as a roost, and these birds repay the animals by destroying the va rious parasites which infest them. Dur- Ccitcirrh.
