For Ulnclc Eyes
It Is often the case that people meet
with accidents and bruises that cause
disfiguring discolorations from which
they suffer not a little embarrassment
and annoyance It Is worth while to
know that there Is a simple remedy
and one quite within the reach of
every one Immediately after the acci
dent mix an equal quantity of cap
sicum annum with mucilage made of
gum arable To this add a few drops
of glycerin The bruised surface should
be carefully cleansed and dried then
painted all over with the capsicum
preparation Use a camels hair brusli
and allow It to dry then put on the
second or third coat as soon as the
first is entirely nbsorbed A medical
journal Is authority for the statement
that if this course Is pursued Immedi
ately after the injury discoloration of
the brained tissue will be wholly pre
vented It is also said that this reme
dy Is unequaled as a cure for rheuma
tism or stiffness of the neck
The President For a Day Story
The story that David R Atchison of
Missouri was president for a duy start
ed as a joke Atchison was president
of the senate at the expiration of Pres
ident Polks term and the law at that
time provided that that official should
succeed to the presidency in default of
both president and vice president
March 4 1849 was Sunday and Pres
ident Zachary Taylor did not take the
oath of office until Monday March 5
Somebody thereupon started the joke
that neither Polk nor Taylor was pres
ident during the odd day and that
Atchison must have been But if Tay
lor could not under the constitution be
president until he had taken the oath
of office how could Atchison He did
not take the oath either St Louis

The Word Tariff
The word tariff has an interesting
origin It is derived from the Arabic
ta rifa meaning an Inventory of fees
payable on demand and became cur
rent in the following way A certain
Moorish general by name Tarifa
seized in the year 710 upon a small
seaport some twenty miles from what
is now Gibraltar and the southernmost
town in Europe Here he founded a
station for levying toll on all craft
trading in the neighborhood and be
stowed his name upon the place after
the manner of Oonstantine Alexander
and others The word came eventual
ly to signify a schedule of charges and
passed into the French Italian and
English
