Lafcadio Hearn on Browning.
As for Browning and Merodith. 1
regard the bulk of the work of both as
doomed to vanloh because of Its ob-
scurity. I revere Browning— even
though obscure. 1 have been lecturing
upon him. I revere Meredith still
more, and 1 have lectured upon him
as tbe greatest philosophic poet of tbe
nineteenth century—for Is he not tbe
only one who has embodied a complete
ethtoal conception of the evolutional
philosophy lo poetry? But bow much
greater would both poets have been If
they had written as clearly as Rossetti
or Tennyson?
There was a party of French artiste
who made what they called coffee pic-
tnree—a. wonderful album. Every one
of these artists emptied the dregs of
his coffee upon a sheet of soft paper
after dinner and according to tbe sug-
geatlons of tbe shapes of the stains
pictures were Inspired. I think that
tbe obscurities of Browning and of
Meredith are like those coffee stains
for tbe mystic minded. They suggest
pictures Ineffable, but these are de-
veloped only according to the Imagina-
tive and artistic capacity of the read-
er.—From “Things English and Japa-
nese,“ Lafcadio Hearn in Craftsman.

Among tbs begging letters recently
received at the office of a benevolent
society was one running thus:
“This unfortunate young man Is the
only son of a widow who died child-
less, and his earnings maintain bis
aged father and Infant brothers, whose
sole support be la.”
Tbe secretary of tbe society wrote
on the margin of tha epistle tha fol-
lowing note:
“The circumstances of the case art
evidently exaggerated.”—Royal Mags-
slna. _
The Um of Steam.
Steam was known to the ancients.
Haro of Alexandria, about 100-1150 B.
C.. having constructed tha first steam
engine known to history. The first
modern reference to steam as a pro-
pelling force Is in Nya’s “Art of Gun-
nery," 1047. Tha first successful at-
tempt to use steam In modern times
was made by the Marquis of Worces-
ter, 1056. But the steam king above
all others, the man to whom we owe
the first solidly practical advance In
the application of steam, was Jamas
Watt. 1700.

The moat important part of the human system is the blood. Every mus-
cle, nerve, tissue, bone and sinew is dependent on this vital fluid for nour-
ishment and strength necessary to maintain them in health and enable each
to perform the different duties nature requires. Even the heart, the very
"engine " of life, receives its vigor and motive power from the blood. Since
SU much is dependent on this vital fluid it can very readily be seen how
necessary it is to have it pure and uncontaminated if we would enjoy the
blessing of good health. Bad blood is responsible for most of the ailments
of mankind; when from any cause it becomes infected with impurities,
humors or poisons, disease in some form is sure to follow. Muddy, sallow
complexions, eruptions, pimples, etc., show that the blood is infected with
unhealthy humors which have changed it from a pare, fresh stream to a
sour, acrid fluid, which forces out its impurities through the pons and
glands of the skin. A very common evidence of bad blood is sores or uleers
which break out-on the flesh, often
from a very insignificant bruise or
even scatch or abrasion. If the blood
was pure and healthy the place would
heal at once, but being loaded with
impurities, which are discharged into
the wound, irritation and inflamma-
tion are set up and the sore continues.
Bad blood is also responsible for
Anaemia. Boils, Malaria, etc.; the
weak, polluted circulation cannot fur-
nish the nourishment and strength
required to sustain the body, and a
general run-down condition of health
results. S. S. S. is nature's blood
purifier and tonic; made entirely of
healing, cleansing roots and herbs.
It goes down into the circulation and removes every particle of impurity,
humor or poison that may be there, restores lost vitality, and steadily tones
up the entire system. It adds to the blood the healthful properties It la in
need of, and in every way assists in the cure of disease. S. S S. MiUtr:i?
izes any excess of acid in tbe blood, making it fresh and pure, and perma-
nently cures Eczema. Acne, Tetter, and all other skin diseases and eruptions.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism. Catarrh. Sores and Ulcers. Malaria, and all
other diseases or disorders arising from bad blood. Book on the blood and
any medical advice desired free to all who write.
