Funny Toothache Cures. Before the days of dentists, and when people generally believed in the value of charms, there were ever so many mysterious ways of preventing toothache. One of these was to dress the right side of the body first—right stocking, right shoe, right sleeve, right glove. A favorite plan in Scotland was to draw a tooth, salt it well and burn it in full view on glowing coals. In Cornwall many save their teeth by biting the first young fern that appear. The custom of catching a common ground mole, cutting off the paws while the little creature still lives, and wearing them, is traced to Staffordshire, England. Some people who are fond of exercise believe that walking 12 miles—no more, no less—to get a splinter of the toothache tree that grows particularly well in Canada and Virginia will drive away the worst ache and pain that ever tortured a poor tooth. The belief that toothache is caused by a worm at the roots is prevalent in many parts of the world; hence this cure: Reduce several different kinds of herbs—the greater variety the better—to a powder. Put a glowing cinder into this powder and inhale the incense. Afterward breathe into a cup of water and the worm will be gone forever. Extraordinary Drinks. Of the many extraordinary drinks regularly consumed the blood of live horses may perhaps be considered the most so. Marco Polo and Carpini were the first to tell the world of the practice of the Tartars and Mongols opening the vein in their horses' necks, taking a drink and closing the wound again. As far as can be seen this has been the practice from time immemorial. There is a wine habitually consumed in China which is made from the flesh of lambs reduced to paste with milk or bruised into pulp with rice and then fermented. It is exceptionally strong and nutritious and powerfully stimulating to the physical organism. The Laplanders drink a great deal of smoked snow water, and one of the national drinks of the Tonquinese is arrack flavored with chickens' blood. The list would scarcely be complete without mention of absinthe, which may be called the national spirituous drink of France. It is a horrible compound of alcohol, anise, coriander, fennel, wormwood, indigo and sulphate of copper. It is strong, nasty and a moral and physical poison. Snow Trade In Sicily. The principal export from Catania is Do Not Read In the Cars. A London publisher whose eyesight has become so impaired that he finds himself able to do scarcely any reading warns readers against working their eyes when traveling in the cars. He says: "For many years past I have been in the habit of reading and writing for some hours in the train almost daily, and my present trouble is undoubtedly traceable to this cause." Oculists are now unanimous in the statement that after a certain time, which varies in different individuals, reading in the cars is a positive danger to eyesight. The page is in constant vibration, and the eyes are strained in trying to follow automatically the rapid movements. Too much light is almost as bad as too little. Reading by a powerful electric light invariably brings on eye troubles. People would make their eyes remain serviceable much longer if the instant the printed letter becomes blurry or the reading matter gets out of focus they would seek the best professional skill and prepare to use glasses. This may be at any age between 18 and 40. A Flirtation Checked. One day when Queen Victoria was present in her carriage at a military review the princess royal, then rather a willful girl of 13 or 14, sitting on the front seat, seemed disposed to be rather familiar and coquettish with some young officers of the escort. Her majesty gave several reproving looks without avail. At length, in flirting her handkerchief over the sides of the carriage the princess dropped it, too evidently not accidentally. Instantly two or three young officers sprang from their saddles to return it, but the voice of the queen staid them. "Stop, gentlemen, leave it just where it lies," she said. "Now, my daughter, get down from the carriage and pick up your handkerchief." There was no help for it. The royal footman let down the steps for the little lady, who proceeded to lift from the dust the pretty piece of cambric and lace. She blushed a good deal as she turned her head saucily, but was doubtless angry enough. The Screw of Archimedes. Archimedes of Syracuse, when he was in Egypt, invented a machine for pumping bilge water out of the holds of ships. This instrument was also used in the delta for purposes of irrigation. Diodorus Siculus twice refers to it (i., 34, 2; v., 37, 3). A curious model of such an instrument, probably of the late Ptolemaic period, has been found in lower The Their Kismet. Proverbs, like grammatical rules liable to exceptions. For instance familiar saying, "Lightning does strike twice in the same place its exception during the bombardment of Widin by the Russian battalion Kalafat on the opposite shore Danube. The incident is described Dr. Ryan in his book, 'Under the Crescent,' the Turkish equivalent to the Red Cross society. The shells from the heart siege at Kalafat were dropping once within the fortress. One of these exploded to a great hole in the large enough to contain a horse Turkish woman, who was owed with her three children under their owm of the wall, took refuge in tha According to the law of chance was the least likely spot to be agly by a shell. But scarcely had shaken in and drawn the three children her when another shell, leaving cannon's mouth at Kalafat, near miles away, dropped into the sand and blew mother and children to To the Turks the grim exception vivid illustration of their door kismet, or fate. The woman's home; kismet led her into that was the place assigned for her death from earth. Another shell struck the angled house, torre down the walls and one half of a room to ruins. In or half of the room were a Turk man and two children. They even hurt. Their kismet, according Turkish ideas, saved them. Embraced by a Devil Fish. A diver engaged in Moyne Australia had a terrible experience with a sea devil. Having first charge of dynamite and dispelling large quantity of stones he went bottom of the river and while in rolling over a large stone something moving about in him. This object quickly came contact with him and coiled about it. The diver walked slowly and piled along with the sea devil's feelings about his body and legs. He made for the ladder and gained tha curious looking object indeed, with huge ugly thing entangled abound body. With the help of the sea devil was in time freed from his companion. The body of tha was only about the size of a la plate, with eyes like a sheep possessed nine arms, each for length, at the butt as thick as a wrist and tapering off at the e penknife. All along the under Snow Trade In Sicily. The principal export from Catania is snow, in which a most lucrative trade is carried on in Malta and parts of southern Italy. It is collected during the winter in hollows in the mountains and covered with ashes to prevent its thawing. It is brought down in paniers on mules to the coast at night. The revenue derived from this source is immense and renders the Prince of Paterno one of the richest men in Sicily. Snow is the universal luxury from the highest to the lowest rank and is sold at the rate of 4 cents for 30 ounces. The poorest cobbler there would rather deprive himself of his dinner than of his glass of "aqua gelata." It is extensively used in hospitals and a scarcity of it would be considered almost as great a misfortune as a famine and would occasion popular tumult. To guard against such accidents the government at Naples has made the providing of it a monopoly, the contractors being required to give security to the amount of 60,000 ducats, which sum is forfeited if it can be proved that for one hour the supply has not been equal to the demand. The Savage and the Birdecage. A gentleman who went out with Stanley to Africa took with him a number of birdcages, in which he hoped to bring back some specimens of the rarer birds of the interior. Owing to the death of his carriers he was obliged to throw away the birdcages with a number of other articles. These were seized by the natives in great glee, though they did not know what to do with them, but they eventually decided that the small circular cages were a kind of headgear, and knocking off the bottom, the chiefs strutted about in them with evident pride. One chief, thinking himself more wise than the others and having seen the white men eat at table out of dishes, thought they were receptacles for food and took his meals from one, ceremoniously opening and shutting the door between each mouthful. Jack Tar at a Christening. A sailor went up to the font to have his baby baptized. Sailors as a class claim little stock in babies, and, naturally enough, this one presented the infant feet foremost. "The other way," said the minister, and, accordingly, Jack turned the infant upside down. "Excuse me," said the clergyman, "I mean the other way." So back came the embryo foretopman to the first position, to the discouragement of everybody. "Wind it, Jack," said the nautical assistant, and with an "Aye, aye, sir," Jack promptly turned the baby end for end, and it was duly christened head first.—"On a Man-of-war." When a man gets down flat on his back, so that he has to be carried about like a baby, he finally realizes that he is a sick man. Very frequently he has a sick man for years, but has recklessly refused to recognize nature's warnings. Severe illness is something that does not strike a man like a flash of lightning. It creeps upon him by degrees, and at every step warns him with a new danger signal. When a man feels "out of sorts" or "knocked out," or whatever he may call it, he is a sick man. It is time to take warning. Headaches, drowsiness, loss of sleep at night, loss of appetite, nervousness, bad taste in the mouth in the morning, and frightful dreams—all these are warnings of encroaching illness. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery creates appetite, cures psoriasis, stimulates the liver, purifies the blood, quickens the circulation and tones the nerves. It makes rich, red, tissue-building blood. It builds firm flesh, but does not make corpulent people more corpulent. Unlike cod liver oil, it does not make fabby flesh. On the contrary, it tears down and excretes the unhealthy tissues that constitute corpulency, and replaces them with the firm, muscular tissues of good health. It cures 98 per cent of it. The royal footman let down the steps for the little lady, who proceeded to lift from the dust the pretty piece of cambric and lace. She blushed a good deal as she turned her head sancily, but was doubtless angry enough. The Screw of Archimedes. Archimedes of Syracuse, when he was in Egypt, invented a machine for pumping bilge water out of the holds of ships. This instrument was also used in the delta for purposes of irrigation. Diodorus Siculus twice refers to it (i., 34., 2; v., 37., 3). A curious model of such an instrument, probably of the late Ptolemaic period, has been found in lower Egypt. It consists of a terra cotta cylinder with a screw inside it 10 inches long and 4½ inches in diameter. Near the center of the outside is a band with crosspieces. These may represent footholds and suggest that the machine was worked after the manner of the treadmill. Such screws were probably made of wood. No other example of this screw seems to have come to light. —American Journal of Archaeology. The Early Umbrella. We may infer from the following announcement, copied from The Female Tatler of Dec. 12, 1709, that the umbrella at this period was regarded as too effeminate for the use of a man: "The young gentleman borrowing the umbrella belonging to Wills' coffee house, Cornhill, of the mistress, is hereby advertised, that to be dry from head to foot on the like occasion he shall be welcome to the maid's patterns." About this time it was customary to keep an umbrella in the halls of larger houses for use in rainy weather, for shelter in proceeding from the house to a covered conveyance, and doubtless the one allowed to in the advertisement above quoted was for that purpose.

Almost Ready to Quit. When the dog licenses were by the collector of queen's years ago, a Sussex farmer took one for a dog. He wrote b Mr. Brown I've paid this years and have not had any pay it this time but if you me a dog at once I will again—London Telegraph A Literary Slip. One of the most literary of the London evening papers makes the following startling announcement: "A complete set of hydrants and fire appliances will be arranged, and the stage is to be fitted with a double asbestus and steel fireproof curtain, controllable by one man. The latter is designed to be one of the largest in London—namely, about 80 feet wide and 50 feet deep." — Glasgow Times. First Caricature. Probably the first caricature in manuscript is to be found in the Egyptian papyrus in the British museum, where the lion and unicorn are represented playing a game of drafts. Sandy's Retort. The parish minister of C—— is a practical though not a cultured preacher. The other Sunday, when on his way home at the close of the afternoon service, he overtook Sandy Smart, the village half wit, slowly trudging along, and being a bit of a wag, addressed him as follows: "You've got an excellent pair of shoes on, Sandy; but, losh, man, they're sadly in need of blacking!" "Aye, sir," readily replied Sandy. "They're like yer sermons—unco destitute o' polish!" — Dundee People's Journal. Both Well Posted. There is a story current in Washington of a charming girl whose partner said to her as in waltzing they just missed a statue of the Venus of Milo: "We mustn't dance too near that or somebody will accuse us of breaking it." The girl turned her lovely eyes on the statue. "Why," said she, "somebody's broken it already." YOUR KIDNEYS filter the Uric Acid and poisons out of the system through the urine if they are acting right. If not, the results are Backache, Bright's Disease, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Bladder Trouble, Dropsy, Diabetes, Nervousness, Blood Disorders, etc. All these diseases can be CURED "You can't conceive what pleasure it gives me to write and tell what great things your Sparagus Kidney Pills have done for me. I suffered from rheumatism, backache and kidney weakness for several years. Every medicine I took seemed to make my trouble more severe, nothing helped me. The doctors did all they could but without success. I heard of your pills through a friend and bought a box. To my great surprise and joy, the first few doses gave me some relief, and by the time I used the full box, I felt like another man. I have had in all three boxes, and now feel perfectly cured." J.

Proverbs, like grammatical rules, are able to exceptions. For instance, the illiar saying, "Lightning does not take twice in the same place," had exception during the bombardment Widin by the Russian batteries of Kalafat on the opposite shore of theube. The incident is described by Ryan in his book, "Under the Red Descent," the Turkish equivalent for Red Cross society. The shells from the heaviest siege guns Kalafat were dropping incessantly within the fortress. One of them as it exploded tore a great hole in the ground enough to contain a horse. A Turkish woman, who was cowering with her three children under the shad-of the wall, took refuge in the hole. According to the law of chances, it was the least likely spot to be again hit by a shell. But scarcely had she crept and drawn the three children after when another shell, leaving the woman's mouth at Kalafat, nearly two miles away, dropped into the same hole and blew mother and children to atoms. The Turks the grim exception was a vivid illustration of their doctrine of metem, or fate. The woman's hour had gone; kismet led her into that hole; it was the place assigned for her departure from earth. Another shell struck the angle of a house, tore down the walls and reduced the half of a room to ruins. In the oth- half of the room were a Turkish woman and two children. They were not even hurt. Their kismet, according to Turkish ideas, saved them. Embraced by a Devil Fish. A diver engaged in Moyne river in Australia had a terrible experience with a sea devil. Having fired off a large quantity of stones he went to the bottom of the river and while engaged in rolling over a large stone he saw something moving about in front of him. This object quickly came in contact with him and coiled about his arm. The diver walked slowly and painfully along with the sea devil's feelers twined about his body and legs. He made tracks for the ladder and gained the boat, a curious looking object indeed, with this huge ugly thing entangled about his body. With the help of the sailors he was in time freed from his submarine companion. The body of the octopus was only about the size of a large soup plate, with eyes like a sheep's, but it possessed nine arms, each four feet in length, at the butt as thick as a man's jersey and tapering off at the end like aenknife.

Story: The Golden Penny tells an amusing story—some readers may think it improbable—concerning the examination of a young man who desired to be appointed a member of the Hampshire county (England) police. He put in an appearance one morning, accompanied by his mother and was taken in hand for examination by the inspector. This progressed satisfactorily until the inspector observed: "Of course you're aware you'll have a lot of night work to do? You are not afraid of being out late, I suppose?" Before the candidate could reply his mother electrified the amazed official with the statement: "That'll be all right, sir. His grandmother's going round with him the first two or three nights until he gets used to it!" Matrimonial Exports. In the early days of Virginia, when the adventurers were mostly unmarried men, it was deemed necessary to export such women as could be prevailed upon to leave England as wives for the planters. A letter accompanying one of the matrimonial ships, dated London, Aug. 12, 1621, says: "We send you in the ship a widow and 11 maids as wives for the people of Virginia. There hath been especial care taken in the choice of them, for there hath not one of them been received but upon good recommendations. There are 50 more that are ready to go. For the reimbursing of charges it is ordered that every man that marries them give 100 pounds of best leaf tobacco for each of them." The British Empire. At the present moment the British empire is 58 times the size of France, 52 times that of Germany, 3½ times that of the United States of America, thrice the size of Europe, with treble the population of all the Russias. It extends over 11,000,000 square miles, occupies one-fifth of the globe, contains one-fifth of the human race, or 350,000,000 people, embraces four continents, 10,000 islands, 500 promontories and 2,000 rivers. Almost Ready to Quit. When the dog licenses were collected by the collector of queen's taxes a few years ago, a Sussex farmer was written to pay, and among other charges was one for a dog. He wrote back, "Now, Mr. Brown I've paid this tax for two years and have not had a dog, and I pay it this time, but if you don't find me a dog at once I will not pay it again." —London Telegraph. THE TRYST. Alone I wait in the old beechwood. At our tryst by the ruined mill, And the only sound that greets my ear Is the note of the whippoorwill. The silent shades of the August eve O'er the shadowed ruins fall. But only the sound that comes to me Is the whippoorwill's sweet call. I wait in vain for a sound more sweet, A note that is far more dear. Tis a signal which says I love is high, A whistle soft and clear. The firefleshes glean in the old beechwood, Where I gleam by the ruined mill, But naught I hear in the silent night Save the lonely whippoorwill. Rose VanB. Spencer. AFGHANISTAN VENDETTAS. How Deadly Blood Feuds Are Waged In the Khyber Pass. During the time I have been in India, writes a soldier correspondent, the most interesting period was when I was stationed on duty for three months some years back in Landikotal, on the Afghanistan side of the far famed Khyber pass. Here I was able to forbioryize the meaning of "vendetta," as the characteristic blood feuds of the Afridis are quaint and interesting. The pass itself is a neutral zone between India and Afghanistan, but we exercise our dominion over the road that winds its way for 21 miles through the narrow valley. Here, as elsewhere in Afghanistan, blood feuds are recognized institution among the tribes and last through generations, the dishonor resting with that family who last suffered from some defeat or treacherous murder. When an encounter occurs between two tribes occupying settlements on opposite sides of the road mentioned, one or other must cross it before commencing firing, as firing across the road is prohibited, but on either side they can exercise their friendly feelings toward each other without hindrance. But still quinariet is it when the feuds are between close neighbors. Each family, with near relations, occupies a number of mud huts, inclosed in a square surrounded by a thick, high wall of mud, stone and wood. At one corner of these squares is built a watch tower 80 feet high, where the family marksman takes his position and playfully picks off any unfortunate who shows himself in the next square. Constituitors are therefore confined on both sides and limited to nightly prowls.—Strand Magazine. Your friends may smile But that tired feeling Means danger. It Indicates impoverished And impure blood. This condition may Lead to serious illness. It should be promptly Overcome by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, Which purifies and Enriches the blood, SOUTHERN PACIFIC COMPANY In making plans for a trip to any part of the East it is well to remember that a choice of three routes can be had over the Southern Pacific lines, viz.: Their Sunset route, Ogden route and via Portland. The Sunset line is especially adapted to winter travel, and the limited trains are during the season crowded to their full capacity with an exclusively first-class patronage. This is the most magnificent train in America, vestibulated throughout, illuminated with Pistachio gas and heated by steam. Every train is made up as follows: One semaphore car containing Bath room; barber-shop, cafe; library in each compartment; and parlor for the special use of ladies; and a ladies' maid in attendance; as many double drawing-room, tension sleepers as may be necessary; with toilet annexes; one dining-car; meals served a la carte.

Amazing Cleverness of Birds. There is something very remarkable in the almost reasoning powers manifested occasionally by birds in eluding pursuit or in turning attention from their nests and young, but in few is this more noticeable than in the duck tribes. In Captain Black's narrative of his arctic land expedition the following instance of this is given: One of his companions, Mr. King, having shot a female duck, fired again and, as he thought, disabled its male companion. Accordingly, leaving the dead bird, which he had the mortification of seeing shortly afterward carried off by one of the white headed eagles, he waded into the water after the drake, which, far from being fluttered or alarmed, remained motionless, as if waiting to be taken up. Still, as he neared it, it glided easily away through innumerable little nooks and windings. Several times he reached out his hand to seize it, and, having at last with great patience managed to coop it up in a corner, from which there appeared to be no escape, he was triumphantly bending down to take it when, to his utter astonishment, it looked around at him, cried "Quack!" and then flew away so strongly that he was convinced he had never hit it at all. The bird's object clearly was to draw the gunner away from its companion. Pagodas as Sin Offerings. Just as brewers and other evil men in England conciliate heaven by erecting churches so the bold, bad, bloody handed Burman makes it all right for the next existence by erecting pagodas. In proportion to the height of the pagoda his heap of sin disappears. And as the Burman, like the rest of us, looks after his own wants rather than those of his ancestors, he builds a pagoda all to himself, and allows his grandfather's to topple over. An uncle of the deposed king must have been round shouldered with the weight of his wrongdoings. Anyway, at the foot of Mandalay hill—a nice, breezy eminence, admirable to give you an appetite and a pain in the back—he built 729 pagodas, though the guides count wrong and say there are only 450. But perhaps they mention the smaller number out of regard for their monarch's uncle, not wishing to expose the real magnitude of his sinfulness. The pagodas are all white and set out in rows, and under each were what we pronounced to be tombstones. We were wrong, for the inscriptions were not to the dear departed, but constituted a complete copy of the law in the Pali tongue. —Travel. When Wellington Was Mad.

"When you are sick, what you like best is to be chosen for a medicine in the first place; what experience tells you is best, to be chosen in the second place; what reason (i.e., Theory) says is best to be chosen in the last place. But if you can get Dr. Inelination, Dr. Experience and Dr. Reason to hold a consultation together, they will give When Wellington Was Mad. The Czar Nicholas' visit to Windsor in 1844 afforded Murray an opportunity to be present at one of the few occasions when the Duke of Wellington lost control of himself. He did it at a review before the queen, her imperial guest, and the royal family, when, contrary to his orders, issued for the queen's convenience, the guns were fired. The hero of a hundred fights stormed in "a most violent manner." When the prince tried to pacify him by saying it was doubtless a mistake, he replied: "It is very good of your royal highness to excuse it, but there should be no mistakes. Military orders should be punctually obeyed, and so long as I command the army they shall be obeyed!" The emperor was astonished, and the suits looked at each other with blank faces, while the artillery was ordered off the maneuvering ground. Cardinal Manning's Humor. Dr. Manning had a strong sense of humor and delighted in telling Irish stories. One related to an Irish laborer, who was thus addressed by a passing Englishman: "What's that you're building, Paddy?" "Shure an it's a church, yer honner." "Is it a Protestant church?" "No, yer honner." "A Catholic church, then?" "Indade an it is that same, yer honner." "I'm very sorry to hear it, Pat." "So's the devil, yer honner." The cardinal on one occasion arrived in full merriment, though informing his friends that he had been all but run over, and he added: "If the accident had been more effectual, my epitaph must have been: "Sad was his fate, it happened thus. He was run over by a bus." —Westminster Gazette Foxy Ways of the Japs. The first ten days that one spends in Japan impress him with the idea that the people there are the best to be found anywhere. But little by little the conviction dawns that the bowing and scraping is all shammed and that the Japanese are as unscrupulous as any one. They cannot be trusted to keep a contract that is not favorable to them. In all the large establishments, especially in the hotels, one always finds a Chinese as cashier. Seemingly the Japanese are afraid to trust one another. The women are quite different. They are faithful and honest and have a lovable nature. I have met a large number of foreigners who have married Japanese women and they are all enthusiastic in their praise. Covered the Case.
