Counting a Billion.
Speaking of counting the hairs of
your head—suppose you undertook to
count a billion, how long do you think
it would take you to do it? A billion,
according to the French notation,
which we follow, is a thousand mil
lions. If you had before you a pile
of silver dollars containing a million,
and could count one every second, for
eight hours every day, it would take
you 35 days to complete the task. But
suppose you undertook to count a
thousand of those million-dollar piles
—you would be at work eight hours a
day for 35,000 days, or about 100
years. _
BOY KEPT SCRATCHING.
Eczema Lasted 7 Years—Face Was All
Raw—Skin Specialists Failed, But
Cuticura Effected Cure.
“When my little boy was six weeks
old an eruption broke out on his face.
I took him to a doctor, but his face
kept on getting worse until it got so
bad that no one could look at him.
His whole face was one crust and
must have been very painful. He
scratched day and night until his face
W'as raw. Then I took him to all the
best specialists in skin diseases but
they could not do much for him. The
eczema got on his arms and legs and
we could not get a night’s sleep in
months. I got a set of Cuticura Reme
dies and he felt relieved the first time
I used them. I gave the Cuticura
Remedies a good trial and gradually
the eczema healed all up. He is now
seven years old and I think the trou
ble will never return. Mrs. John G.
Klumpp, 80 Niagara St., Newark, N.
J., Oct. 17 and 22, 1907.”
Ready to Pay Fine.
"I know where $3,000,000 in cash
lies concealed,” said a New York law
yer. “This vast sum lies concealed in
the inside vest pocket of the 30,000
automobilists of New York state. Each
man carries $100 of it in one crisp
note, ready to be paid out in a fine, if
he should be arrested for speeding.
Fines, though, don’t appear to stop
speeding,” he continued. “Perhaps
the rich automobilist regards them
much as the Suabian wood thief did.
The thief was arrested. The magis
trate said to him: ‘You are brought
up on the charge of stealing wood.
This charge has been proved against
you. But you are old and poor and
you shall be let off this time. Only
don’t do it again.’ ‘Nonsense!’ retort
ed the thief. ‘Let us not have any
false sentimentality "here. I steal my
wood, I pay my fine, aud there’s an
end of It’ ”

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.
I -
It is worth knowing that a change
In food can cure dyspepsia. “I deem
it my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
“I had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor recom
mended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. I followed instruc
tions and now I am entirely well.
“The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial
as you see fit.”
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stom
ach as the food she had been using;
it also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part of the human body is in
perfect working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre
sents the steam that drives the engine.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. It is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

across the line one night in order to
avoid the Missouri officials. This was
done without the knowledge of the Ar
kansas authorities and for several
years these houses have been run on
this side of the line illegally.

DESERVED TO WIN HIS CASK.
Really Able Argument Put Forward
by Accused Sailor.
A very good story has recently been
told in the fleet of an Incident which
happened when Admiral Evans was in
command of the Indiana. An old-time
bluejacket was at the mast before
Capt. Evans, charged with getting
food out of a mess chest outside of
meal hours. This getting of food for
night watches is a common and strong
desire on the part of most men aboard
ship.
Capt. Evans asked the man what he
had to say; and the man, sizing up
the delicate situation, said:
"Captain, I didn't take no food outer
that chest. Why, captain, there
weren't no food in that chest! I
looked in that chest, and, captain, I
met a cockroach coming out of that
chest with tears in his eyes.”—Har
