TlfF total arrivals for the last fiscal year were 648,743 immigrants and 82,055 other alien passengers, making a total of 730,798. This is an increase of 160,825 immigrants over 1901.

officials. He is, as may be imagined, one of the most capable labor leaders in the country, and it is to his efforts that the organization of the trackmen is due. Earl Cadogan, lord lieutenant of Ireland, resigned his office July 17. He had held the post since 1895, the usual term being only three years. Joseph Hodges Choate, who has been mentioned by Don M. Dickinson as a presidential possibility in 1904, has never

held a public office save that of ambassador to the court of St. James, unless exception be made of the time he served as president of the New York constitutional convention in 1894. Mr. Choate is essentially a great lawyer. He is now in the seventy-first year of his life, and has just cotn-

Incomes of Boyhood Days.

"I ran across an old account book the Sth er day,” said a leading business man, “which was interesting as showing the sources of boyish Income thirty or forty years ago, and also as showing the difference In the values of certain articles’ at that time and now. “I was reared on a farm In central Illinois, and at that time all the old Junk on the place was regarded as the property of the boys, and the sale of it produced the money necessary to properly celebrate the Fourth of July, attend the circuses, and so on. “The old account book was not very well kept, but it is legible and covers nearly two years atx.ut the close of the civil war. I find recorded In It the sale of 152 pounds of old Iron at cents a pound, six pounds of old copper at 20 cents a pound, and eleven bottles at 4 cents each, all In one day. A circus must have been coming. “At another time appears an entry of greater magnitude. It reads: ‘Sold two mink skins at $4 each, one mink skin at $3, two mink skins at $2 each, nine coon skins at 25 cents each, and fourteen ’possum skins at 10 cents each.’ This was probably the result of a winter’s trapping. “Another entry was: ‘Sold four young mocking birds at $1 each,’ and I recall that there was a considerable trade in wild mocking birds In our locality at that time. Dealers purchased the young birds from the country boys, reared and trained them, and sold them in the cities, a good singing bird bringing $lO. The farmer’s boy had many sources of Income, and the foundations of numerous fortunes were laid on the odds and ends which fell to the share of the enterprising youngsters of thirty and forty years ago.”

Couldn’t Live Without Them.

New York City, Aug. 18th.-Mr. Charles Back, of 64 Rue de la Vlctorle, Paris, France, relates a most Interesting experience: “Ever since I was about three yeara of age I have suffered severely with Kidney Disease. "Last year I spent some time at the baths at Carlsbad (Bohemia), but I came back after five weeks’ treatment with a severe pain still in my kidneys. “My doctors iu Paris and Hamburg could do nothing for me. “I was obliged to start from Paris to Montreal, Canada, and when I arrived In the Canadian city I was half dead. “I read an advertisement of Dodd’s Kidney Pills In a newspaper there and began to use this‘remedy, and after two days’ treatment I felt that my pains were leaving me, and In a week I had no pains at all. "Dodd’s Kidney Pills are the most wonderful remedy In the world. I keep them always with me for I believe I could not live without them.”

Sad Sea Doggedness.

The ship groaned. But the Giddy Young Thing who wai talking to the captain was a good sailor and didn’t mind a bit of rough weather. “Doesn't it seem unnecessarily cruel, captain," she said, “to box a compass?” “Not any more so, miss,” he replied, grimly, “than to paddle a canoe.” And the ship groaned some more. —Chicago Tribune.

A large number of prominent members of the different Orders with which I have been connected have been cured by the use of Peruna of cases of catarrh of the stomach and head; also In kidney complaint and weakness of the pelvic organs. “It tones up the system, aids digestion, Induces sleep, and is well worthy the confidence of sufferers of the above eomplaints.”—H. 8.
