see of Utica N Y was arrested m Syra
cuse Y on i warrant sworu out by
the Dr Williams Medicine Co charging
him with forgery On the 10th of De
cember Murquisoe visited i photo-engraver
in Syracuse saying he was the repre
sentative of the Dr Williams Medicine
Co and arranged for the making of a
full set of plates for the direction sheets
Jabels etc of the famous Dr William
Pink Tills for Pale People News of
this reached the home ollice and no time
vis lost in arranging for his arrest when
lie should return for the plates He re
turned on the lith and was accordingly
arrested and is now in jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination which occurs on
March 2
This arrest proves to be an important
one In addition to various plunder such
as medical books typewriters rugs etc
found in Marquisees trunk when arrest
ed tlie police also found counterfeit coin
both in the trunk and on his person and
in a search of his apartments at Utica
found a complete outfit for counterfeit
ing consisting of crucibles bellows nick
el lead bismuth antimony a small black
smith forge a charcoal furnace and
several moulds The
United Slates marshals want him just as
soon as the Dr Williams Medicine Co
nre through with him and no doubt he
will be sentenced for a long period
In selecting Dr Williams Pink Pills
for his counterfeiting operations he
howed his knowledge of the proprietary
medicine business for these pills are in
such great demand that they are easily
sold at any drug store in the United
States His scheme was to work the
country druggists and sell his imitations
at a discount of from 2 per cent to f per
cent explaining the reduced price by the
fact that he had picked them up in small
viots and at a discount from dealers who
Jjvve overstocked By working fast and
making long jumps he would have se
cured many hundreds of dollars in a short
lime The proprietors of Dr Williams
Pink Pills are most fortunate to have
caught the rogue before he had fairly
started and to have thus kept these spu
rious iroods out of the market
Nerves and Teeth
Bad nerves and bad teetk will be
found to go together in an extraordin
ary number of cases The hustle and
bustle of our modern life which is also
trying to the nerves has an equally
detrimental effect upon the teeth

I A Ftmny Boar
Here is the queerest boat afloat Tt
is the invention of a New YorU man
and it will doubtless soon become a
popular pleasure craft as it his eo
many good features to recommend it
i compared with the old style craft
Especially will St prove a boon and
blessing to the sportsman who fre
quents the fiver and lakes Unlike the
old style rowboat this new boat mad
of rubber can be packed in a small
space and the hunter or fisherman can
Sfifitfr
carry it wherever he chooses to go It
is a much safer boat than the old style
too It is exceedingly hard to capsize
and when it does tilled with compress
ed air as it is it acts as a life preserver
and the occupants can support them
selves in the water until assistance ar
rives
The inventor H D Layman de
scribes the boat in detail He says
This boat is made of rubbered cloth
with continuous air chambers made in
two separate compartments extending
around the top of the boat on which
oar locks are buckled as shown in the
illustration It also has an air tube
running lengthwise under the center of
the boat which serves as a rudder and
bumper The boats are capable of be
ing deflated and packed into a small
case or trunk with their seats and joint
ed oars and may be carried under the
seat of a buggy or by hand if needs
be as an outfit The boat complete
capable of carrying comfortably three
or four persons would not weigh more
than fifty pounds The boats are made
in four separate compartments are
simple durable and absolutely safe
against either capsizing or sinking but
if tilled with water would then float
several hundred pounds They have
been thoroughly tested both in rough
and calm waters and are entirely sea
worthy at least this is the verdict of
experienced boat builders sea captains
life savers and other competent
judges
American Dressmaking
Felix says American dressmakers
make better dresses than the French
dressmakers put better materials into
them fit them just as well sew them
better and then he says spoil them
by too much sewing too much of what
I cant translate better than calling it
The French study
effects and let the details take care of
themselves But they pay a great deal
of attention to details of one sort if not
those of another The Frenchwoman
doesnt care whether the stuff is cheese
cloth or satin side plaited or gathered
so long as it makes her look well but
she dotes on having her lingerie her
gloves her shoes her veils her entire
outfit perfectly au fait
The French mind adores elegancies
It goes into raptures over its own de
vices in garnitures French workwomen
like to do decorative work in dressmak
ing but they hate to finish the inside of
a bodice as our American dressmakers
feel that they must finish their work
Anybody who has ever tried to make a
hat or bonnet knows that she not infre
quently secures a good effect in the trial
arrangement and spoils it all when the
sewing is done by making it look stiff
and ugly The French do not believe
in much spwing and by eschewing as
much of it as they can they do get
graceful airy effects that are quite
their own
Tlie Jjantern Ply
One of the largest and most curious
of the many luminous of lamp bearing
insects is the huge lantern fly a species
of the firefly peculiar to Central and
Northern South America The great
lantern is hardly as large as the com
mon dragon fly or snake feeder but
like that creature it has lace like wing-
and an elongated abdomen In Central
America particularly in Costa Rica and
Panama the Indians capture them by
thousands using them as decorations
for their headdresses saddles etc The
Frenchman Renard who visited Guate
mala in 1S02 declared that the Indians
used lantern flies and oilier Iumiubus
insects much in the same manner that
we do torches and lanterns and that
by the light the insects give out they
were able to find their way through
dark woods and swamps

Bubbles or Medals
Best sarsaparillas When you think of it how contradic
tory that term is For there can be only one best in anything one
best sarsaparilla as there is one highest mountain one longest
river one deepest ocean And that best sarsaparilla is
Theres the rub You can measure mountain height and ocean
depthbut how test sarsaparilla You could if you were chemists
But then do you need to test it The Worlds Fair Committee
tested it and thoroughly They went behind the label on the
bottle What did this sarsaparilla test result in Every make
of sarsapariila shut out of the Fair except Ayers So it was
that Ayers was the only sarsaparilla admitted to the Worlds
Fair The committee found it the best They had no room for
anything that was not the best And as the best Ayers Sarsa
parilla received the medal and awards due its merits Remember
the word best is a bubble any breath can blow but there are
pins to prick such bubbles Those others are blowing more
best sarsaparilla bubbles since the Worlds Fair pricked the
pldones True butAyers Sarsaparilla has the medal The
pin that scratches the medal proves it gold The pirvthat pricks
the bubble proves it wind We point to medals not bubbles
when we Bay The best sarsaparilla is Ayers

Clothes Line Without Any Pins
A pinless clothes line is something
which attracts the attention of every
housewife Any one who has ever
hung tip a washing especially on a
windyday will appreciate the advan
tages of such a line over the old one
This new clothes line is made of gal
vanized steel spring wire and is there
fore non rusting and is made in links
one foot long and when taken down
can be folded together into a small
space The clothes are fastened on
by drawing a small corner through the
slot of the link about half an inch The
link holds it fast and the harder the
wind blows the faster the link holds
The clothes are taken out as easily as
put in The entire surface of the line
is very smooth so that garments do not
adhere to it even being easily slipped
OLD AND NEW WAY

fastened in two places in such a man
ner that they draw toward each other

Beat four eggs very light and stir
them into a cup of warm water with
an equal quantity of warm milk Add
a teaspoouful of salt and half as much
soda with half a cup of softened but
ter Pour this upon a quart of sifted
flour in a bowl and beat in half a
yeast cake dissolved in four table
spoonfuls of warm water Beat the
batter for five minutes put in a well
buttered mold and let rise six hours ot
till very light then bake three quarters
of an hour in a steady oven Put pa
per over it after it has baked fifteen
minutes removing it in time to let it
brown before it is done This is said
to be the recipe used by the original
maker of Sally Luun for whom it was
named These recipes are from Ma
rion Harlands new cook book
Iron Rust and Mildew
To remove ink marks and iron mold
stains place a plate on the top of a
basinful of boiling water spread the
articles on the plate wet the spot and
rub it with a small quantity of salt of
lemon As the article dries the stain
will disappear If one application is
not quite successful repeat the opera
tion A small box of salt of lemon
should have a place in every house
hold Mildew may be removed from
linen by the following process Rub
the linen well with salt then scrape
some fine chalk and rub it also on the
stained part Lay the linen on the
grass and as it dries wet it a little The
mildew will in all probability be quitu
removed by one or two applications
Finjrer Rolls
Make a good bread dough and before
kneading for the second rising work in
a tablespoonful of melted butter for
each quart of flour represented in the
dough After it has risen the second
time roll into a sheet somewhat less
than half an inch thick Cut this into
strips an inch wide and four inches
long Roll these lightly under the
hand till they are round lay in a flour
ed baking pan let stand ten minutes
and bake in a moderate oven to a pale
brown These are indispensable at
luncheons and high teas
Vienna Rolla
Make the bread sponge as usual and
when it has been stirred stiff enough
to handle take it on the board and
knead twenty minutes Then work in
a tablespoonful of melted butter for
each quart of flour represented Let
rise four hours Knead again and let
rise two hours Then make into balls
twice the size of a walnut put them
in a baking pan not near enough to
touch When they have risen to double
the first size make a clean cut in each
an inch deep and brush with milk and
sugar and bake
Kitchen Aprons
Make your kitchen aprons with a full
ruffle across the bottom This will
stand out from your dress skirt and
catch whatever you may drop or spili
thus protecting the dress skirt The
front of a dress skirt is often soiled
round the bottom because the a prim
does not quite cover it or is drawn too
tightly across it but this ruffle will ef
fectually prevent any soiling of the
dress
To Fry Bacon
To fry bacon so that it is crisp and
delicate fry it over a hot fire in a pan
so large thattthe slices do not touch
turn tlie slices every minuted ok twoji
till they are nicely browned on- both
sides then take out upon coarse wrap
ping paper and place in the oven a
minute still on the paper This makes
them crisp and nice Never serve ba

Illuminating Insects
A widely circulated work on the natu
ral wonders of sea and land says grave
ly that there are many insects that fur
nish a far superior light to our own
lampyris or firefly called by children
lightning bug The great lantern fly
of India can supply a light which is
quite Strong enough to read b3 In this
instance the light emanates from the
head instead of from the lower body
as in the firefly
In the Antilles the coleoptera the fire
bug of that region is of great use being
employed in place of lamps by the poor
er people In Cuba it is the custom of
women to inclose these insects in glass
cages where they emit light enough to
work by
Travelers there also when passing
through the wood by night affix a lire
beetle to each of their feet by which
their way is fairly light The Creoles
are giyen to the practice of deftly ar
ranging these luminous insects in their
hair where they produce a dazzling ef
fect superior to jewels The uegresses
at their national dances scatter them
over their airy garments when in their
luminous movements their bodies as
sume the appearance of being robed in
flames
Groan if You Must

A journeyman barber in Cincinnati a specially intelligent man and
a favorite with his patrons says of
RIPANS Tabules
I want to say that for eight months I have taken three a day and
have not been to see a doctor once since I commenced to take them
Before I would have to have a big tube put down my throat and have
my stomach flushed I believe that is what they call it three times
every week by a doctor that charged me 50 cents for every time
Of course that gave me relief but the trouble always cane back
again and I can tell you it was no fun to be pumped out about every
two days The doctor said I had catarrh of the stomach Whatever it
was it dont botkr me now For four years I was troubled so that I
used to lose about three days out of every month When this barber
observes that a customer has a feverish breath he occasionally presents
him with a Tabule and if taken i removes the difficulty forthwith
