DISCONTENT. Fair are the fields in the spring with the sweet perfumed breath of the meadows. Fresh as the green mossy dels where the gorse flares its torches of gold; Winter has gone from the earth and returned to the kingdom of shadows; Feelings rush out from the heart, like to frozen streams losing their hold. Yet as I stand in the light of the sun and in gladness rejoice Deep in my heart there arises a restless, dissatisfied voice— "Life's hopes are never fulfilled; there is always left something to long for!" —Lillian Eleanor Barlow in Madame. A MAN'S LIFE. "It is a question," Professor Kirkhoffer said, quietly, "between this and that." Saying thus, he looked down at the two objects between which choice had to be made. "This" was a man, a brown skinned man of the upper Asian steppes. He lay prone upon the desert sand, his eyes, unseeing eyes, wide open, motionless save for an occasional twitching of the limbs as the fever shiver shook him; silent, except when his parched lips moved in the articulate mutter of delirium. The professor's gaze did not limit upon this piteous figure. It traveled to "that"—two loads of clay tablets, evidently of extreme antiquity and closely covered with a strange cuneiform character, which had just been carefully strapped by his companion to the backs of two kneeling camels. "Seeing we are now reduced to two beasts only," he went on, his eye shifting for an instant to the body of a third camel, which lay dead some 30 yards off, "seeing alse that we are in a waterless desert, probably 24 hours' ride from the nearest well and that this man is a dead weight on our hands"— "You don't dream of abandoning the poor chap?" Dick Harding broke in. The professor glanced uneasily over his smoked spectacles. Harding was a puzzle to him, a man of distinguished scientific attainments, capable of strong scientific enthusiasm, yet occasionally betraying a vein of sentimentality altogether out of place in connection with scientific exploration. Kirkhoffer had inconvenient experience of this peculiarity more than once during the year spent with Harding in the remote fastnesses of Tibet. It Cares A New Skin Anita Cream Is a cure for all discolorations of the skin. It does not contain a single ingredient that can possibly harm the most delicate skin. It literally coaxes a new, velvety, transparent skin to the surface, thus removing all blemishes. ALL DRUGGISTS sell it or will get it. If you can't obtain it, send 50c for full sized jar, or 10c for sample jar to Anita Cream Adv. Bureau, Phillips Block, Los Angeles, Cal. himself covered by his antagonist's revolver. "Now, perhaps," the man of science observed, "you will consent to hear reason. No use, my good friend," as Harding's hand went briskly to his breast pocket. "I drew the charge while you were asleep this morning in view of possible difficulties. You see, I know something of your strange English character. There is nothing like being ready for difficulties as they arise." Dick Harding, under the covering revolver, stood erect and—dumb. To argue further with a man prepared to commit murder on behalf of his tablets of baked clay were simple waste of breath. Keeping the muzzle of his weapon pointed full at Harding's breast, Pro- A PRICELESS REVENUE THE FAMOUS BLACK STONE OF TEMPLE OF MECCA. How This Treasure of Islam At the Present Day and the Theories of Its Origin—Guar Mohammedans. So carefully is the black stone temple of Mecca guarded every day, that the accounts given by writers as to the nature and appraisal variations, for orthodox monks cannot be prevailed upon by a straightforward description of mere adventurers, like the sewerpean hadjis (Burekhardt, Butler others) could only gratify a intelligent curiosity by stealthy detections. Detection in the act of such investigation would lead the travelers their lives, in part (as Mohammedans suppose) of the prophet. Your faithful man cannot understand that motive than worship should be one to visit Mecca. The Mohammedans believe famous stone was brought de-heaven by angels. It is set in of the Caaba, which stands nine inches from the ground kissed and touched with great emotion by every pilgrim to Mecca. Mr. Bate mentions what travelers have recorded concerning nature of the black stone. One tells us that it is undoubted aerolite—an opinion which harmonizes with its reputed floating in water, since aerolite contains a large percentage metallic matter, such as iron. Another traveler reports that like a piece of lava, contains extraneous particles of some yellowish substance. Still another of these affirms that it is a fragment of basalt, sprinkled throughout with small, pointed, colored crushed with felspar upon a day like coal, excepting one of its ances, which happens to be ash dish. Others, again, claiming an opinion that it is nothing else from knowledge, give it evidence of stone from The professor glanced uneasily over his smoked spectacles. Harding was a puzzle to him, a man of distinguished scientific attainments, capable of strong scientific enthusiasm, yet occasionally betraying a vein of sentimentality altogether out of place in connection with scientific exploration. Kirkhoffer had inconvenient experience of this peculiarity more than once during the year spent with Harding in the remote fastnesses of Tibet. "You wouldn't leave him here to die?" the Englishman persisted. The professor rubbed his forehead thoughtfully. "He's bound to die soon in any case." "I don't see that at all. If we can keep him alive till we get out of this"— "Impossible, my friend. He cannot walk, and these two camels cannot carry him in addition to you and me and the tablets." "Then leave some of the tablets behind." The professor fairly gasped for breath. "Leave—leave behind some of the tablets?" he stammered. "Leave the records of a civilization to which the Arcadian is a thing of yesterday—to be swallowed up by the next sandstorm? Give my great discovery, the greatest of the century, maimed and imperfect, to the world? Harding, you must be mad. What's the life of a Khirgiz Tartar beside these priceless things?" Kirkhoffer's shortsighted eyes gleamed angrily behind his glasses; his voice was thick with passion. "What's a Khirgiz Tartar?" he growled like a wild animal. "He's a man, anyway." Harding retorted. "Suppose I refuse to leave this fellow?" "Then"—the professor became all at once ominously cool—"I shall be forced to remind you that I am the head of this expedition and you my salaried assistant; also that these animals are my property. I go, and they go with me. You can join the party or not, as you please." Harding grew pale. "That is the choice you offer me! Then I say you are a blackguard." "And I say," indifferently, "that you are a fool. Come, will you mount?" "No!" furiously. The German shrugged his shoulders. "Have it your own way," he said. And, gathering up the long leading rein which he had fastened to the head of one camel, he prepared to seat himself on the other. But here Harding sprang upon him suddenly. "No, you don't," he cried. "You shall leave me one, you brute, though it were a hundred times your property!" "Stand off!" the professor cried. Harding's answer was to close with him silently, and there ensued a trial of strength whereof the issue seemed for several minutes doubtful. The men were not ill matched. Kirkhoffer was the taller and heavier, but then he was also the elder by 20 years, and Harding's naturally litle habit of body had known an English public school and university training. The result of the conflict was still uncertain when the professor suddenly loosed his hold and fell back, leaving the prize of contentment in the other. No use, my good friend," as Harding's hand went briskly to his breast pocket. "I drew the charge while you were asleep this morning in view of possible difficulties. You see, I know something of your strange English character. There is nothing like being ready for difficulties as they arise." Dick Harding, under the covering revolver, stood erect and—dumb. To argue further with a man prepared to commit murder on behalf of his tablets of baked clay were simple waste of breath. Keeping the muzzle of his weapon pointed full at Harding's breast, Professor Kirkhoffer mounted his camel, made both the great beasts get up and began to move on. As long as Harding remained within running up distance he continued to hold the revolver raised and leveled, sitting sideways on his animal to insure an accurate aim. But after a minute the camels broke into a long, awkward trot. In two minutes they were beyond pursuit. Then the professor pocketed his firearm and throw his leg across the saddle. "Your own fault, remember!" was his final greeting before he disappeared over the top of the nearest sand dune. When he had disappeared, Harding looked about him, reviewing the situation. It was no cheering prospect that met his eye—a dead waste of sand hills to north, south, east and west, white hot in the glare of the tropical sun. Two dark blots alone broke the pale surface of the wilderness; the stiffening bulk of the dead camel and the limp figure of the fever stricken camel driver—truly no pleasant place to die in, more especially if you happen to be young and strong and the death to which you stand condemned is death by hunger and thirst. A few hours would exhaust the scanty remains of food and water left in the skin and saddlebag lying hard by the dead camel, and then—Harding shook off anticipations of coming torture to take stock of his wretched commissariat and, rummaging in the bag, found a priceless treasure, nothing less than an untouched bottle of quinine! Why, with this he might hope to revive the Khirgiz, whose case, but for the supposed exhaustion of the expedition's medicine chest, had never been a serious one. Escape was yet possible. Escape! From a trackless wilderness in which they could only wander aimlessly to and fro, having no single instrument by which to determine their position or point the way? Saving his assistant's pack, the professor had carried off everything. No, not everything. Even as this thought sank like a stone into Harding's heart his eye fell upon something glittering at his foot. With a shaking hand he grasped it, lifted it—and broke into a cry of mingled triumph and thanks giving which startled the Khirgiz from his lethargy. Pushing back his long hair, the man made an effort to sit up. "The master? Where is the master?" be asked, looking about him in surprise. Harding laughed grimly. "Heaven alone knows, since he has left his compass here." And heaven alone knows to this hour the course of the wretched Kirkhoffer's wandering.

Disease is more dangerous than any wild beast. To be just out of reach of disease, is safer than to engage it in a death struggle with doubtful results. The secret of keeping just out of reach of disease is in keeping the blood pure and rich. Pure blood offers no breeding ground for disease germs. Rich blood creates a vigorous vital force to resist disease. This ideal condition of the blood is best obtained by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. In thousands of cases where there has been obstinate cough, bronchitis, spitting of blood, weakness or other ailments which if neglected lead on to consumption, "Golden Medical Discovery" has healed the disease and put the life just out of reach of the destroyer. There is no alcohol or other intoxicant contained in "Golden Medical Discovery." After using about five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery my boy seems to be all right," writes Mr. J.W. Price, of Ozark, Monroe Co., Ohio. "He was very bad when I commenced to give him the 'Golden Medical Discovery.' The doctors claimed he had consumption and we doctored with them until he was past walking. It has been ten months since he stopped taking your medicine and he is still in good health. We are very thankful to you for saving our son." Free. The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent free by Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y., on receipt of stamps to defray expense of mailing only.

With a shaking hand he grasped it, lifted it—and broke into a cry of mingled triumph and thanksgiving which startled the Kirkghiz from his lethargy. Pushing back his long hair, the man made an effort to sit up. "The master? Where is the master?" he asked, looking about him in surprise. Harding laughed grimly. "Heaven alone knows, since he has left his compass here." And heaven alone knows to this hour the course of the wretched Kirkghoffer's wandering. When Harding and the Kirkghiz, guided by the instrument which he had dropped in his scuffle with the Englishman, reached, after manifold toils and sufferings, the confines of human habitation, they could obtain no tidings of their vanished chief. And, although Harding insisted on organizing a new expedition to search for him, its labors were fruitless. His fate remains as unknown to the world as the history of that ancient empire whose records lie buried with him in the sands of central Asia.—Chicago News. Misplaced Sympathy. There was once a paterfamilias who was eloquently indignant about the way his daughters imposed upon the laundress in the matter of white petticoats in winter. "It was a shame at all seasons," he said, "but in cold weather, with no excuse for wash skirts, it was cruel to ask that poor, hardworking girl to slave and toil over their washing as she was obliged to do." One day the paterfamilias, happening to pass through the laundry, tore up stairs, white with rage, to where his daughters were. "Well, girls," he cried, "this is too much. White petticoats in winter are bad enough, but when it comes to such white petticoats as I saw Delia breaking her back over just now down stairs—ruffles from top to hem and tucks and lace and embroidery—why, it's a day's work to look at one of them. If you must have such extravagant fripperies, for heaven's sake have them plain." The daughters investigated. Since the last paternal outburst they had given up white petticoats, either ruffled or plain, and in either spring, summer, autumn or winter. It was as they fear-ed; the "extravagant fripperies," ruffled from top to hem, over which poor Delia was breaking her back, were the property of poor Delia herself.

Now This Treasure of Islam Appears at the Present Day and the Various Theories of Its Origin—Guarded by Mohammedans. So carefully is the black stone of the Temple of Mecca guarded, even to this day, that the accounts given by different writers as to the nature and appearance of the black stone exhibit some considerable variations, for orthodox Mussulmans cannot be prevailed upon to give straightforward description of it, and there adventurers, like the several European hadjis (Burckhardt, Burton and others) could only gratify their intelligent curiosity by stealthy investigations. Detection in the act of pursuing such investigation would have cost the travelers their lives, in pursuance of Mohammedans suppose) of the law of the prophet. Your faithful Mussulman cannot understand that any other motive than worship should lead anyone to visit Mecca. The Mohammedans believe that this famous stone was brought down from heaven by angels. It is set in the wall of the Caaba, which stands within the great colonnade. The stone is four feet nine inches from the ground and is kissed and touched with great veneration by every pilgrim to Mecca. Mr. Bate mentions what intelligent travelers have recorded concerning the nature of the black stone. One of them tells us that it is undoubtedly a large helioclonne—an opinion which scarcely harmonizes with its reputed quality of floating in water, since aerolites usually contain a large percentage of heavy, metallic matter, such as iron pyrites. Another traveler reports that it looks like a piece of lava, containing small extraneous particles of some white and yellowish substance. Still another of these authorities affirms that it is a fragment of volcanic basalt, sprinkled throughout its surface with small, pointed, colored crystals and varied with felspar upon a dark ground, like coal, excepting one of its protuberances, which happens to be a little redish. Others, again, claiming an equal title to exact knowledge, give it as their opinion that it is nothing else than an ordinary stone of stone from quarries in SPECIAL Election Proclamation State of California, County of Orange.

Still another of these authorities affirms that it is a fragment of volcanic basalt, sprinkled throughout its surface with small, pointed, colored crystals and varied with felspar upon a dark ground, like coal, excepting one of its protuberances, which happens to be a little redish. Others, again, claiming an equal title to exact knowledge, give it as their opinion that it is nothing else than an ordinary piece of stone from quarries in which the Meccan territory abounds. These last mentioned travelers, however, appear to overlook the circumstance that this opinion of theirs does not take due cognizance of that property of the stone to which we have just alluded and also the circumstance that the only kind of stone yielded by the Meccan quarries is a sort of gray granite. Not so difficult is it to form an idea as to its size and present appearance. In form it is an irregular oval, the inequality of its two longer sides imparting to it a somewhat semicircular appearance. It measures about 6 inches in height and 8 in breadth, the diameter on its lower and wider side being 8½ inches. The surface is protuberant and somewhat knobby or undulating and has the appearance of being composed of a number of smaller stones of different sizes and shapes, securely fitted together with cement and perfectly smooth. Its appearance is as though the original piece of stone had been broken to pieces by a violent blow and then repaired. And, as a matter of fact, this appears to be the true explanation of this irregularity of the surface, for it is recorded by the Arabian historians of the Caaba that in the year 413 of the Hajira an emissary of a certain Egyptian khalifa, known as "the Mad Khalifa Hakim," shattered it to pieces by a stroke of a club, and they relate that after this event the pieces and even the dust also were carefully restored and the fragments cemented together. The protuberances mentioned are 12 or 15 in number and are such as to impart to the surface of the stone a muscular or pebbly appearance. Near the middle there is a hollow which reaches to about as much as two inches below the outer edge of the stone and is of a kind to suggest to the visitor the misee that one of the protuberances may have been removed. The color of the surface of the relic is at the present time a deep reddish brown, or, as some have described it, a metallic black, and, notwithstanding the polished appearance imparted to it by the constant touching of unnumbered myriads of devotees, it yet bears on its undulating surface what appear to be evident marks of volcanic origin. These muscular protuberances, however, are attributed by the Moslem authorities to the incessant osculations and rubbings of the faithful. The smoothness may perhaps be attributable to this cause, but the obviously fractured and pebbly appearance is not accounted for in this way.—Asiatic Quarterly. Anaheim Precinct.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Bear's the Signature of Chattie Hutchinson A Bit of Superstition. One of the most liberally patronized of the Pennsylvania's many passenger trains is the St.Louis express, which leaves the Broad street station each afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. The regular gate for the train is No.14, but at this season of the year the rush of people to get aboard is so great it becomes necessary to open two gates.No.13 being the nearest, it is the one selected. The saunterer happened to be in the station the other afternoon when the gates were thrown open. Instantly there was a rush for No.14 and the crowd became jammed around it for a distance of 20 feet in each direction.Gate No.13 was practically neglected. "This way for the St.Louis express," called out the ticket puncher at the gate."This way for the St.Louis express." But although his voice was good and loud, none of the passengers who were struggling around No.14 seemed to hear it Out of probably 100 well dressed, intelligent men and women she saunterer saw but three leave the pushing throng around No.14 and pass through No.13 He asked the gateman why it was. "Don't know,"was his answer,"except it's superstition.Afraid to start on a journey by passing through a gate with 13 as its number I suppose It's way every time,and will be I guess,as long as the number on the gate is left as it is.I believe that the most of the people would rather miss their train if it came to that,than take chances with their superstitious fears.Funny isn't it?"—Philadelphia Inquirer.

Louis Wain, the famous cat painter, professes to believe that a cat owned by a woman is the mirror of its mistress' temperament. He says that if a cat has been constantly with its misstress suddenly removed from her society the creature will show the characteristics madame has displayed. If she has been snappish, pussy will sulk too. If this were really true, it would pay a prospective husband to steal the cat of his ladylove before taking the fatal matrimonial step. As the cat is about the most independent creature alive, one can't help being skeptical of Mr. Wain's theory. A French writer has ascertained that Napoleon's favorite dish was bean salad, and that he held that 60 cents a day ought to be enough for any one's meals. Louis XV. on the contrary, had a favorite dish, made of the eggs of various birds, which cost $100. Missed the Opportunity. Mrs. Bargane—Haven't you got a toothache, John? Mr. Bargane—No, my dear.

Dewey and the Sultan. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 27.—Admiral Dewey wants no horse tails in his. He plainly said so when a day or two ago he declined to stop at Constantinople in response to the urgent invitation sent to him by Oscar S. Straus, the United States Minister to Turkey. Dewey's refusal to go to the Sublime Porte amounts to a snub to his Majesty, Abdul Azziz, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. A year ago the Sultan sent Admiral Dewey a message of congratulation and decorated him with the Order of Hasan Medjidie of the first class. That made Dewey a Pasha of the third class, the highest, and entitled to have an outrunner go before him when he appeared in public, bearing aloft on a standard three horse tails. He has practically ignored the bestowal of the tails upon himself, although he acknowledged the receipt of the Sultan's message. To properly acknowledge the honor of being decorated the recipient must appear before the monarch bestowing it and personally express his appreciation. This Dewey declined to do, although he passed within a comparatively short distance of Constantinople. In that way he expressed his indifference to the honor. By his failure to call upon the Sultan Admiral Dewey has forfeited the honor bestowed upon him. Dewey was given the license to have the decoration made by the royal jeweler. The decoration costs about $1000, which is paid by the person upon whom it is bestowed. The insignia is a golden jewel shaped like a sunflower. The Funny Bone. A man who fractured his funny bone concludes that it is not a funny matter. He said: "The displacement of the olecranon is accompanied by disablement of the whole arm for a long while. Webster describes the point as follows: 'The large process at the proximal end of the ulna which projects behind the articulation with the humerus and forms the bony prominence of the elbow.' I have it with me. I fell on the ice in 1873 and broke off my left funny bone. It hurt, but I did not know what had happened for months, and then Dr. Henry Fish of Fargo told me. It was too late to do anything then except exercise to bring my muscles into condition." "A new development set in then, and the lower part of my forearm became flat, while the upper muscles developed. At present I can pull or lift as much with that arm as I could at any time, CASTORIA The Kind You Have Always Bought, and which has been in use for over 30 years, has borne the signature of and has been made under his personal supervision since its infancy.

"A new development set in then, and the lower part of my forearm became flat, while the upper muscles developed. At present I can pull or lift as much with that arm as I could at any time, but I cannot strike or push with it and cannot exert downward pressure with it at all, unless I hold my arm rigid and put the weight of my body upon it. I can scarcely hold a sheet of paper upon my desk, and for fully 13 months I could not use my left arm at all. Perhaps it was because I did not have surgical attention soon enough. Recently I had a radiograph made, and the fragment of bone was clearly shown lying loosely in the joint. After the fracture two splinters protruded from the skin and were removed." She Wanted to Know. Of women who wear black some women always have an air of recent beavement which misleads the ordinary mind. At a railway station in this state not long ago a tall woman robed in deep black, accompanied by a young woman in colored garb, sat waiting for a train. The station matron hovered in the vicinity, evidently with something on her mind, and finally beckoned to the young woman, who went to see what was wanted. "Has she got a corpse with her?" the station matron asked. Corpse? the young woman explained, looking over her shoulder in ghastly fright. "Who's got a corpse with her? What do you mean?" Don't be scared, lady," the matron exclaimed. "Most of em that travels in deep mournin has corpses on the train. I just wanted to know if your lady had a corpse with her." Goodness, no!" said the young woman. "Her husband's been dead 50 years. You ought to be ashamed to shock people that way. Don't you ever treat me that way again." The station matron looked disappointed, and the young woman went back and sat down without even feeling at liberty to tell the lady in black what had happened. — Indianapolis Journal.

But what do you suppose such a building would cost? The president thought a moment and replied: "It would depend on the material used.

The inhabitants of Cochin China and Siam have known the fighting capacity of a savage little fish for many years,and have long been in the habit of making matches between those owned by different men,just as Mexicans match gamecocks and some Americans and Englishmen bull pups.When a match is made the parties so it having laid their bets bring their specimens of the fierce little Betta purgax in ten of Boston: "Meeting President Eliot of Harvard some years ago, he said, with a familiarity warranted by a life-long acquaintance: 'Stop, Charles. What is the next building you want at Cambridge?'" "President Eliot replied, 'The building we most need now is a new building for the law school.'" "'Oh,' said Mr. Austin, 'I hate lawyers! But what do you suppose such a building would cost?' "The president thought a moment and replied: 'It would depend on the material used. An adequate building of brick could be built for from $60,000 to $70,000.'" 'Are you sure,' asked Mr. Austin, 'that $100,000 would be enough to provide a thoroughly good building?'" 'Yes,' replied the president. "I'm your man,' said Mr. Austin." Tomatoes and Cancer. A few years ago an eminent London physician, on my mentioning to him tomatoes as an article of diet for myself, said, 'Why do you eat tomatoes?' I said, 'Why not?' He said: 'Well, I think that there are grave reasons for thinking it possible that eating tomatoes increases, if it does not produce, the liability to cancer. I do not say positively that it does so.' It strikes a layman as a fact that the consumption of tomatoes has increased as much in England of late years as has cancer.—Pall Mall Gazette. Ventured Ke Opinion. "What's the matter with you?" asked the friend. "I haven't the least idea," answered the very cynical invalid. "The surgeons are going to operate for appendicitis."—Washington Star. A Mother Tells How She Saved Her Little Daughter's Life. I am the mother of eight children and have had a great deal of experience with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery in its worst form. We thought she would die. I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seemed to do her any good. I saw by an advertisement in our paper that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was highly recommended and sent and got a bottle at once. It proved to be one of the very best medicines we ever had in the house. It saved my little daughter's life. I am anxious for every mother to know what an excellent medicine it is. Had I known it at first it would have saved me a great deal of anxiety and my little daughter much suffering.—Yours truly, MRS. GEO. F. BURDICK, Liberty, R. I. For sale by P. A. Derge. Fish as Fighters. The inhabitants of Cochin China and Siam have known the fighting capacity of a savage little fish for many years, and have long been in the habit of making matches between those owned by different men. Just as Mexicans match gamecocks and some Americans and Englishmen bull pups. When a match is made the parties to it having laid their bets bring their specimens of the fierce little Betta pugnax in globes of water. Both are put into one globe and without a moment's hesitation they fly at each other and do not cease fighting until one of the combatants is killed by the other. It is only a year or two since specimens of this fish were brought to Paris, but now many are owned in Paris, and it is said that the demand for good specimens is constantly on the increase. They are beautifully spotted with red and blue and would attract attention in any aquarium by their colors alone. The savage nature behind the beauty would hardly be suspected.—Chicago Inter Ocean.
