How Is
YourHeart?
Is your pulse weak, too slow,
too fast, or does it skip a beat?
Do you have shortness of
breath, weak or hungry spells,
fainting,smothering or choking
spells, palpitation, fluttering,
pains around the heart, in side
and shoulder; or hurt when
lying on left side?
If you have any of these
, symptoms your heart is weak
or diseased, and cannot get
better without assistance.
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure
strengthens weak hearts, and
rarely ever fails to cure heart
disease. Try it, and see how
quickly you will find relief.
“About January 1st, 1902, I took
down with weakness and dropsy,
and gradually grew worse. I was told
*>y my family physician that my- case
was hopeless. My neighbors and fam
ily had given me up to die. My
limbs and body were swollen to one
third larger than normal size, and
water had collected around my heart.
For at least three months I had to sit
propped up in bed to keep from smoth
ering. I sent for five Dottles of Dr.
Miles' Heart Cure, and by the time I
had taken them all I was entirely
cured. I feel better than I have for
twenty years, and I am able to do
any kind of work on my farm. My
attending physician told me that if it
hadn't been for Dr. Miles’ Heart Cura
I would now be In my grave.”

“Ask a man to pick out some num-i
ber between one and ten, and you can
tell him nine times out of ten what
number he has selected, though his se
lection i? made mentally," said a man
who, according to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, is fond of the old ,
things, “and when you come to think
of it, the task of naming the correct
number is not a difficult one. In the

without knowing just why it was that
he changed. Seven is the mo3t prom

is the most popular number in the line,
an* is associated with more things
than any other number, and it is quits
reasonable that the mind should light
on seven. [ made another test the
other day with five persons, asking each |
of them to write some number between

was able to tell what the number was.
It would be quite as easy to name a
number between 10 and 20, though I
have made no tests along this line. I
dare say that 13 would be the first
number to flash in the mind, simply
because it Is the most talked of, and
the only number between 10 and 20
that has the widest association. So
you can tell there is no trick about It,
and It doesn't require any knowledge
of the occult philosophies."
EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Boms of Our Larger Cities Have An
nexed Ground Far Into Adja
cent Farm Lands.
According to a recently issued census
bulletin, the real rank of cities is not al
ways indicated by the order in which
they stand in the tables of population
Some great centers have a considerable
part of their massed population lying
outside the municipal boundaries. Bos
ton is a good example; about 1,200,000
people live in sight of the state house
dome, and less than 600,000 of them are
governed by the Boston mayor. Other
cities have annexed far into the farm
lands of the adjacent country, says
Youth's Companion.
It Is customary to speak of the popula
tion of a state, “In proportion to Its
size." Such a comparison Is seldom
made of cities, although it might not be
uninteresting. Pittsburg, for example,
has a population of a third-of a million
on 18,000 acres of ground; New York’s
population, little more than ten times
aa great, spreads over nearly 12 times
as many acres.
Chicago was long famous for its an
nexation habit, but since 1890 New York
has annexed much more territory than
Chicago's total area. New Orleans has
a slightly larger area than Chicago.
Each of them covers six times the area
of Baltimore.
Washington, which occupies the Mary
land part of the ten miles square set
aside for a national capital, is a fair
sized city a3 area goes, for this genera
tion. It may seem small a century hence,
although it looked abundantly ample for
all the purposes of urban development
when laid out.
In the case of cities, as well as of other
corporations, consolidation is plainly
oqb ui lub wlububibs in me [[UBS. iviore
than one-third of those in the United
States have added to their territory by
annexation since 1890. Townships and
counties are occasionally subdivided, by
reason of local interests, but the cities
seem to be steadily pushing their boun
daries outward. There are some eco
nomic reasons for this, but the reason
In many cases has been the desire of
their inhabitants to make a “good show
ing.”
In the Right Room.
At the latest of the ladies’ clubs a
“pets’ room,” with little stalls for dogs
and cats, lemurs and lizards, all the
small creatures that a lady finds neces
sary as companions, Is provided.
One of the most enthusiastic members
was showing her friends of her own sex
over the establishment, and opened the
door of the “pets’ room with proper
pride.
There, in the center of the room, on
two chairs, sat two immaculately
clothed young men, grave of face, but
with a wicked twinkle in their eyes.
“Don’t you know this Is the ladies'
'pets’ room?’ ’’ asked the enthusiastic
member, with some acerbity.
“That’s why we are here,” replied the
more serious of thetwo young men, with
becoming gravity.—Sporting Times.
Longevity of Birds.
Small singing birds live from eight to
eighteen years. Ravens have lived foi
almost 100 years in captivity, and par
rots longer than that. Fowls live 10

have attained the age of 300 The long

FRIGHT RESTORES SPEECH
Flames In Boom of Dumb and* Par
alyzed Man So Scare Him
That He Begins to Talk.
Thomas Herring, a dumb and par*
alyzed old man living with his son-in
law, E. Moss, in London, was so over
come with fright when a fire broke out
in his bedroom recently that he sud
denly began to speak.
Herring, who is 71 years old, was a
robust man, and up to a short time ago
was enjoying good health, even work
ing at a small blacksmith's forge. On*
day he suffered a stroke of paralysis,
which also left him speechless.
The other evening two men rushed
In shouting that one of the upper
rooms was on fire. Running up stairs
to the chamber of his father-in-law
Mloss saw that th« window curtains
were ablaze and the woodwork was
alight. The wind had blown open th*
window and this had knocked over a
lamp, causing the fire
The paralyzed man lay on the bed
helpless, unable to stir* hand or foot
or raise a cry of alarm. The agonized
look on his face showed, however, that
he realized the terrible nature of his
position. The flames were smothered
before they had mads much progress, i
and the patient escaped unhurt
Shortly after the family were sur
prised to hear the voice of the par
alyzed father. He was able to speak j
distinctly a few words and his speech
was ooherent. The next days his pow
ers of speech were still further restored
and he regained the complete use of his
voice and was able eaaily to converse
with the family
The restoration of the lost faculty
was evidently the outcome of the shock
which his system experienced on th*
outbreak of the fire.
Although the paralysis of the limbs
remains, Mr. Herring’s health has Im
proved so much that he has been re
moved from the house to a hospital,
where It is the opinion that he may
live a long time.
EXTOLS MARTIAL SPIRIT.

Gen. Sickles Declares War Was Or*
dained by God and We Will
Always Have It.
The cornerstone of a monument ta
be erected in Salem Fields cemetery.
Cypress Hills, L. I., in honor of Jews
who lost their lives In defense of the
union was laid recently. Nathan Straus,
chairman of the auxiliary committee of
the Hebrew Union Veteran association,
presided. In the course of his remarks
Mr. Straus referred to “A time when
war will be reckoned a survival of bar
barism." This brought a protest from
Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles, retired,
who lost a leg at Gettysburg
“Although we are assembled In a
cemetery," said Gen. Sickles, “this Is
not a funeral occasion. No death la
more glorious than death for one'a
country. I know many think that wars
are dreadful, but we have had our
wars since the world began, and ws
shall always have wars. In the provi
dence of God war was ordained, and
the human raie will always fight for
what it loves. This nation was found
ed through war. Would George III,
hafe agreed to arbitration to let us
found an Independent government? No
We have liberty because our fathers
fought seven years for independence,
and we will always have to fight to
maintain our freedom.
“I hope the time will never come
when we shall cease to be a martial
people, or be unwilling to take up aims
in defense of our country. In the day
we are unwilling to fight for our lib
erties we shall surely lose the respect
of the world "
HORSE FALLS IN CISTERN.
Then Battles with a Water Moccasin
for Life—Rescued by
Firemen.
A horse belonging to William Scales,
of Kansas City. Kan., fell in an unused
cistern the other day. The animal was
almost submerged, nothing but his head
and neck remaining above the water
Tlflion f b o Vwvart o/vrw r»o n fli»n b nn >1
quarters arrived a large water moccasin
about five feet long had wrapped itself
about the horse’s neck and had bitten
the animal several time*.
The snake was an ugly looking reptile,
and for a few moments the firemen hesi
tated about going down in the well. Vol
unteers were called for, and some of the
men, more venturesome than the rest,
climbed down on a ladder and with a
large stick killed the snake. The horse
was then lifted from the cistern and a
veterinary surgeon applied antidote®
for the snake’s bite. Although the horse
suffered considerably from the com
bined effects of the fall and the snake
bites, it will recover.
Unearths Petrified Dinosaur.
W. H. Utterbeck, representing ths
Carnegie museum at Pittsburg, Pa, has
In his possession portions of a petrified
dinosaur, called the triceratops, which
were exhumed on Hell creek, in Dawson
county, Montana. The load weighed
2,500 pounds. The remaining portions
will weigh about the same, and it will
take until fall to excavate them.
Chickens Find Lost Diamond.
A diamond ring valued at $ 150, which
was lost by Miss Rebecca Rannough at
the home of Wright Griffen, in Great
Barrington, Mass., 14 years ago, was
unearthed by chickens vigorously
scratching in the soil the other day. The
jewel was found by Frederick Burg
hardt, who has notified Miss Rennough.
The ring is in perfect condition.
Not Very Popular.

for six months seems to have succeeded
in reducing a meat diet to its first princi
