USE DOGS AS BLANKETS.
How French Knife Grinders Keep
Warm While at Work.
Every visitor t-> »»iif of the great
Paris stores will have noticed counters
covered with tnlik- i t'stlcry'of the char
acteristic French p.i:Kin-broad, curv
ed blades uud hum or black bone han
dles. excellent steel aud very cheap.
Almost all this is made at Thiers and
by hand. But there is no external
sign of manufacture, and a traveler
might paw through the town without
suspecting a great industry.
The swift flowing Durolle supplies
power at the bottom of a deep and
narrow gorge, on the steep side of
which the apparently sleepy town is
built. At one story below street level
we came to the forges of the chief
firm Here, with extraordinary quick
ness and skill the knives are band
forged — blade, hilt and (aug — from
steel bar. then tempered one by one.
and two stories lower down, nt river
level, in a long, dark, damp cellar, they
are ground, and It is the method of
this process, unique so far as I know,
that makes the industry of Thiers
worth a moment's description.
The river turns a score of emery
wheels about a yard in diameter, and
above each of these Is a narrow, slop
ing platform six feet long and two
wide. Along each of these, flat and
face downward, lay a grinder, man or
woman, grasping a blade by the two
ends and pressing it by the whole
weight of the body against the re
volving wheel just below. The long
row of stretched out bodies gave a
grim impression of something be
tween a fleld hospital and a mortuary.
The foreman assured us that it was
much easier work thus to press
against the wheel by one's weight than
to sit and press by the force of one's
arms. But to He thus attnost motion
less all day long In a dank cellar, far
below the grouihl level, is about as
dreary and unhealthy a way for a hu
man being to pass his life as can be
imagined. The place Itself cannot be
warmed, but to keep at least a little
heat in their bodies and stave off
rheumatism as long as possible the
grinders have adopted the extraordi
nary expedient of training dogs to lie
all day upon tbein-^dogs of all sorts
and sizes There they lay, curled up
on the backs of their owners' thighs,
living bot bottles.—Sir Heury Norman
in Scribuer's.
BEAU FIELDING A RJZZLE.
He Wat the Enigma of English Social
Life In Hi* Day.
Beau Fielding was a young man ol
fashion in the relgu of William ill.
His bouse was sumptuously furnished,
his hunters, hacks and racers were of
great value, and "he kept a table ot
princely hospitality." He had no os
tensible source of income; yet appear
ed to be rolling in wealth. All that
was known of him was that he was
the fifth son of Thomas Wilson, an
impoverished gentleman of Leicester
shire. Evelyn describes him as a very
young man, "civil and good natured
but of no great force of character,"
and "very sober and of good fame.'
All attempts to discover ills secret
were vain. "In bis most careless hours
of amusement he kept a strict guard
over his tongue and left gossip tc
conjecture what it pleased."
He redeemed his father's estate and
portioned off his sisters and when re
monstrated with on bis extravagance
replied ,Jhat, however long bis life
shonld last, be would always have
enough to live in the same way. Some
said it was he who had .fobbed the
Holland mail, for which another man
had suffered: others that he depended
upon the gambling table, though be
never played for (Urge sums. He was
the enigma of social life till his careet
was cut short by a duel. His adversary
was at that time a young man about
town like himself, John Law, whc
afterward became the founder of the
famous Mississippi scheme by which
half of .France was ruined. When the
mysterious Beau died he left only a
few pounds behind him and not a
scrap of evidence to eulighten public
curiosity.
Vegetable Ivory.
Vegetable ivory is the product of the
plant known among botanists as Phy
telephas niacrocarpo. It is a native of
South America, found chiefly on the
banks of the Magdalena. Colombia.
It is mostly found In separate groves,
in damp localities and upon ground
that bears no other form of plant life.
The seeds contain a milky juice which,
as it ages, hardens until it becomes a
valuable substitute for animal Ivory.
you CAN'T EARN MONEY
WHEN YOU'RE LAIO UP
There are lot of people in this
town who cannot afford to be
sick. Perhaps none of you
feel that you can, but certainly
some of you can't, for as soon as
you are sick, your wage3 stop pnd
'worry and debts begin to pile up.
The sensible thing for you to do, as
soon as you feel run down and worn
out, no matter what the cause, is
to take something just as quick as
you can to build up strength and
health. Make yourself more com
fortable and provide aguiust serious
sickness.
We don't believe there . is any
other medicine made that will do as
much towards saving your health
and thus helping you . save your
money as Rexall Olive Oil Emul
sion. It is a medicine that gets
right at the trouble and relieves
it by toning the nerves, enriching
the blood, and giving new strength
and health to the whole body. It
doesn't do this by means of alco
hol or habit forming drugs, be
cause it contains none. Its strength
and health-giving power is due to
pure Olive Oil and.the Hypophos
phites, long endorsed by successful
physicians, the one for its food
value, the other for its tonic val
ue. Here, for the first time, they
are combined, and the result Ts
a real nerve, blood and body,build
ing medicine— a real stvengthener
that we are proud to tell you about.
You don't need to hesitate in using
it, because if it doesn't do all we
say it will and satisfy you in every
way, it will cost you nothing. If
it doesn't make you strong and
well again, come back and get your
mony. It will be given you with
out word or question. Sold only
at the more than 7,000 Rexall
Stores, and In this town only by
us. $1.00.—Wm. Britt, druggist,

beneficial years ago with the kid

Mrs. R. O. Fenton, 3908 N.
Verde St., Tacoma, Wash., says:
'It. gives me great pleasure to tell
bow much benefit Doan's Kidney
Pills brought me. I was induced
to try Doan's Kidney Pills by an
other of my iamily who was cured
of kidney complaint by them after
everything else had failed. Doan's
Kidaey Pills at once stopped the
pain and tired feeling in my back
and corrected the ac*iou of my kid
neys. I am now enjoying good
health and free from all signs of
the old trouble. It gives me great
pleasure to again recommend
Doan' Kidney Pills and verify the
endorsement I have given before. I
still use them off and on and I
find them tue best kidney remedy
to be had."
