Jim" as he is known on the Monon,

Some time ago a change was made in the street car service between Conkey avenue and East Chicago running only two cars instead of four such a kick has been made against the change that they have now put on three cars and it is thought that they will soon put the four on again THE CZAR. The Czar is below medium height and, though he does not look it, is something of an athlete. In a walk he can easily outdistance the average man. Pedestrianism is, in fact, the exercise that appeals to him most. He can go miles and miles without requiring a rest, but nowadays he indulges in but few rambles. He does not fear death for himself, but he believes that God intended him to rule, and there fore avoids unnecessary risks. The tales that are circulated periodically to the effect that he trembles for his safety throughout the livelong day are as untrue as they are absurd. Nicholas II is also a fair oar. When he was over in England some years ago he patronized the Thames frequently, go ing down to a certain boathouse unattended and hiring a single sculler by the hour. He finds no pleasure in pomp and ceremony, and were he free to consult his own wishes he would vacate the throne tomorrow, Liverpool News. Apples are quite plentiful and cider presses are busy.

WE SELL THE BRAHOS BROS. Tel. 2942, 126 EW YORK SCARE. The latter part of last June, in New York City, a number of school children were operated on by physicians for a simple affliction of the throat. In some manner the report circulated that the children were murdered. In less time than it takes to tell it, twenty-five thousand parents were rushing madly through the streets towards the various schools. Only the quick action of the school teachers in dismissing the scholaverted a most fearful panic. The average parent will become alarmed at an imaginary danger and overlook the real. They see their child ren become thin and restless, irritable, peevish and lose the healthy glow of the skin, grit the teeth when sleeping, see the brightness leave the eyes, and appetite changeable, good today and bad tomorrow. These symptoms are warnings of Nature, and indicate the presence of stomach or tape-worms or disease of childhood, which often lead to long sickness and death. For worms and kindred diseases a few doses of Quaker Herb Extract, a pure vegetable compound sold for years in all drug stores and made of herbs, roots, bark, berries, leaves and blossoms, will expel all disease germs, worms and impurifrom the system in the natural manner. It is perfectly harmless and contains no injurious drugs or poisons. Quaker Herb Extract is for sale by your local druggist, or is sent on reof price. $1.00. Quaker Herb Co., Cincinnati. O.
