They live almost entirely on raw animal food, and this ex plains the absence of a number of diseases which are common to civilization Salt water contains iodin.aad all sea animals as wi ll as all who eat them uncooked absorb more or less of this pick le chemical substance. Scurvy, KO common nnd dead ly among early Polar explorers, is totally unknown among Ex qnimos who eat raw meat. This iodized raw food also explains, the absence of enlarged, tonsils, glands and goiter. Their perfect, splendid teeth anil strong lower jaws mark them completely car nivorous. The exclusion of veg etable food lias short, ned their intestines and indigestion is un known. One would suppose their pure flesh diet would cause bil iousness, etc., but the large per centage of oil in their food acts as a gentle laxative and protects against all harm. They eat with relish old rotten blubber that would stagger a buzzard. Their skin, though covered with filih and yenuin, is smooth as satin and totally free of dis ease or blemish. The very fact that these people fear and hate washing in water may account lor their fine "Arctic" skins. Ex posure of hair to midnight sun for three months of the year fa vors hairgtowth.

Explorers have suffered the same way, and have commit ted suicide. In summer Eskimos get so fullblooded that nose blee ding is very common. All degenerate disases that cause so much suffering and death in civilization are absent from the Esquimos. The pute, sterling Arctic air contains no germs, but Eskimos invariably take a bad "ship cold" when they go aboard white man's ships. More Esquimos are killed every vear hunting the walrus than die of natural causes. Tlse people have no doctors and none of t he remedies that are common am- Jong civilized people ate known.

However the Ban tier Elk and Elk Park sections wrre plainly visible. After staying there for some time we took a western course, anil soon arrived at the Buckeye Springs. After taking a cool and refreshing drink, and were a bout to to take our leave, one ol our party happened to an acci dent, and took a bath in a pond near by that had been built for making ice, and remarked us he was Hearing the bank that it was about the coolest bath he h a d ever taken. Ye then took a homeward course, and as we traveled along through the beautiful forests and wild grasses, the Ktock law was much discussed. Then we came to the Ha ven Bock and were a bout to ascend it, when one of the party objected and the idea was abandoned. We made our way again to the North Pinna cles, and after taking another view we made our way down the mountain, where we visited old Bro. William Ki ller, and happen cd in at a lucky hour, as dinner was about ready when we got tie re. After sharing the blessings of the good brother's table, we were escorted to the parlor, where the friendly ladies poured out their souls in the most charming mu sic I have ever heard.

In the cour'-eof a short sermon on "A Blessing to llumnniiy," .Mr. (leorge Watts'gift ofaK , (KM) hospital to Durham. The State Democrat moralizes: -if we had no rich men we would have no endowed institutions of learning, no hospitals where the poor can be cured, as well as those in better circumstances; our trading territory would be circumscribed to own neighbor hoods, and not by the earth's boundaries, as it now is, our fac tories would be shops, our rail ways cartways; in a word, but lor the power of wealth and the influence of philanthropic men the world would still be m its primeval state." The rich hava their uses in the woild, and as monuments to them the earth is I dotted with colleges, libraries, schools, hospitals and institu tions of a beneficent character. Charlotte Chronicle.

He could hardly keep his feet and leaned heavily ag ainst the house for support. "Nothing here," said the wo man again, much worried. "Eat hungry,'' fussed the drunken aboriginee. "Nothing here," sail the wo man, another time. She saw that the time f.r action had come, and shout od to him: ' do away, get away, no stay here get a- way. The Indian grunted a little more, but he was too drank to drunk toquanvland linally turn ed around and staggered over to a small fruit tree in the yard, un der which he lay down and was quickly asleep. It was still early in the clay and the woman was sure t li a t the Indian would awaken before her husband came home. She did not scream and wring her hands and go into hysterics. She put her wits to working. First she went to the barn and got an armful of corn which she shelled. Then she tiptoed to the tree and scattered the corn all over the drunken brave and then made a trail of coin to tlie barn lot. She opened the gate and called to the hogs. About thirty huge shouts, to whom corn was a luxury, am bled joyously forth. They licked the trail clean and came to the Indian. The way they piled on the sleeper, rooted him about, was a show worth seeing. There was a mix up of shoals and Indian, a wild yell, and a very unsteady race on the part of the Indian to put as much dis tnuee as he could in the shortest possible time between himself and the hungry pigs. That Indi an never bothered that farm again. Kansas City Journal. Mr..!. K. Doughton, State Bank examiner, is right s iriously sick of typhoid fever at the Foot Hills Sanatorium.

The Bed-Bock of Success, lies in a keen, clear, brain, backed by indomitable will and resistless energy. Such power comes from the splendid health that Dr. King's New Life Pills impart.
