FORTY MILLION CAKES YEARLY. O. W. O. Hardman, Sheriff of Tyler Co., W. Va., appreciates a good thing •nd does not hesitate to say so. Ho was almost prostrated with a cold when he procured a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He says: "It gave me prompt relief. I find It to be an Inval uable remedy for coughs and colds.” Fot sale by P. C. Corrigan. A Dee Moines woman who has been troubled with frequent colds, concluded to try an old remedy in a new way, and accordingly took a tablespoonful (four times the usual dose) of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy just before going to bed. The next morning she fonnd that her cold had almost entirely disappeared. During the day she took a tew doses of the remedy (one teaspoon fill at a time) and at night again took a tablespoonful before going to bed, «nd on the follow ing morning awoke free from all symp toms of the cold. Since then she lias on several occasions, used this remedy in like manner, with the same good results, and is much elated over her discovery of so quick a way of curing a gold. For ■ale by P, C.

Mrs. Drown of ths Tnuorj Department Beeoaetrnete Bill*. The most interesting person in the employ of the treasury is Mrs. Brown, who knows more about burned money than any other individual living. It is marvelous to see her take a hand ful of charred fragments of bank notes and, pasting thorn piece by piece upon a sheet of paper transform them into recognizable shape, so that the loser may be reimbursed by Uncle Bam. Mrs. Groth died in Rockford, 111., leaving all of her property to her niece, Lizzie. For some reason, per haps because the death was from a contagious disease, the clothing of the deceased was burned. After this pious task had been accomplished it occurred to Lizzie that perhaps there might have been some money in the pockets So she searched among the ashes, and, sure enough, she found a few bits of what had been green backs. She sent them to the redemp tion division and thoy were identified as amounting to $£5. Burglars destroyed the safe of a bank with dynamite, incidentally blowing several packages of notes into small bits, which were forwarded to the treasury at Washington for re demption. Mra Brown had a quanti ty of the stuff in a big envelope, and it looked as though the job of putting the pieces together would be no small one. Mra Brown is equally well ac quainted with the work of the puppy dog which gets a chew at the family wad; also with the results accomp lished by the omnivorous goat and the almost equally indiscriminate baby. A half-digested roll of bills may be recovered from the stomach of a goat, as has been done in more than one instance, by the simple pro cess of killing the beast, but the in fant affords a more serious problem. WHAT CHILDREN TALK ABOUT. Hoy« Talked of Girls and Girls Talked of Their Studies. "I once occupied two rooms on the ground floor of an old* fashioned house which stood on a corner where a large number of school children passed,” said a lady recently. “One day it occurred to me that it would be interesting to listen to their con versation. So, as the pupils reached my front window I walked with them to my Bide windows, and so to the length of the house, 1 being unob served behind blinds and sash cur tains. “After three weeks' observation I found that boys from 8 to 14 years of age were bragging continually of their superior progress in the line of 'lickin’,* ‘base ball,' ‘bike ridin' and ‘big brother.' Never a word of their studies. “Oirls of the same age talked: ‘And—mamma—said;’ ‘and—teacher said;’ ‘I don’t care, my numbers are too hard.' ‘I’ll just tell mamma,’ ‘and she says,' ‘and my doll is as pretty, mamma said so.’ etc., in the same strain, with mamma coming in at the beginning or end of every sen tence. lioth sexes of this age talked as fast as their tongues allowed. Evi dently there were no listeners. "Of the ages from 14 to 17 the girls talked, with scarcely an exception, of their studies, and there were plenty of listeners The boys of the same age talked, with scarcely an excep tion, of girls, girls, with plenty of listeners "Now, I confess, this surprised me. I had always been taught to believe just the reverse, and it took various listenings and peeps before I would believe my senses. But the truth was before me. The boys talking girls, girls, and the girls talking studies, studies, Btudies.” Somewhat Cold. “It does git a little cold out in Kan sas,” said the man from the prairies, “but in Manitoba is really where it gits its work in. Up there one winter it got so cold that I nigh starved to death.” “So cold that all the grub was froze solid?” asked the man who had never been thirty miles from home. “Oh, that’s a regular thing. But this time it got so cold that the cold drawed up the skin on my neck so tight that I couldn’t swaller nothin'. Ef they hadn’t of come a thaw, I allow I wouldn’t be hero to-day to tell you about it.” Marguerite* Grow EttaUr* Those charming hothouse daisies that are almost exactly like the fie Id daisy are easily propagated from cut tings, and they grow so rapidly that cuttings three inches high started in midwinter will bloom in the late spring. The old plants can be kept year after year, but it is better to make cuttings, as the former gradu ally grow into a heavy, shrub-like mass and are unmanageable because of their size. ••Saratoga Fried. ’* Carey B. Moon, 83 years old, who died of heart failure at Saratoga, was; for over a third of a century known, as the manager of Moon's Lake house, the celebrated road house at. Saratoga lake. lie was the origin ator of the "Saratoga fried potatoes, which are known to all Saratoga, visitors. Not What He Wanted* "Too soft a snap!" muttered the. train robber. Yet he seemed not alto gether pleased. “Much too soft a snap,” he repeated, frowning. Then he selected another revolver with a stronger spring to it, and started for Dead Man's Gulch with more con fidence. Why She Did It. Mistress—Why, Bridget, what do you mean uy dragging that chicken around the yard? Bridget—Sure, and didn’t ye tell me to draw the ohicken. and Oi didn’t want to draw it on the kitchen flure because I just scrubbed. a. A NATIONAL PRAYER. How Fervently the Torki Fray for tha Unbelievers. The following is an exact transla tion from the Arabic of the official prayer of Islam, which is used throughout Turkey and daily re peated in the Cairo “Azhar” univer sity by 10.000 Mohammedan students from all lands: “I seek refuge with Allah from Satan, the accursed. In the name of Allah the Compassionate, the Merci ful! O Lord of all creatures! O Al lah! Destroy the infidels and poly theists, thine enemies tho ene mies of the religion! O Allah! Make tlioir children orphans, and defile their abodes, and cause their feet to slip, and give them, and their families, and thoir households, and their women, and their children, and their relatives by marriage, and their brothers, and their friends, and their possessions, and their race, and their wealth, and their lands, as booty to the Moslems, O Lord of all Creatures!” 1 n all the other religions of even the semi-civilized nations of the plobe there can be no nrayer found to par allel this cruel appeal of Islam to the spirit of inhumanity. Bulgaria, Da mascus, Lebanon and Armenia may or may not be hotbeds of anti-Turkish intrigue; with such a national prayer Turkey stands self-condemned before the world. READ THE SIGNS. The Old Clookmaker Speeks From the Ll|ht at Experience. “Yes,” said the old clock mender, "I find lots of curious things in clocks that haven’t any right to be there. Look at that 'domestic'—it was so plugged up it couldn’t strike, and it didn’t keep the time anyhow.” “Why do you call it a 'domestic?’ ” “ ’Cause it's the cheapest and most popular clock there is for sale. It’s gothic and looks fine in a parlor that ain’t got much other furniture. You wouldn't believe it, but that there clock when it’s brand new only costs S3, and yet there’s lots of ’em bought on the installment plan. This one's been running about two years. ” “How do you know?” “By the signs. Key’s kind of new, face ain’t tarnished and the works are all right” “Then why did it need repairs?" “It had been taken down from its shelf to be wound, and a child had been foolin’ with it.” “Oh, they told you that?” “Deed they didn't—here is one ol the signs,” and the old clockmaker held on one finger a baby’s shoe. “I found that stuffed in the striking belt Sometimes it's a roll of lampwick, then a love letter; and it’s a great place for the children to hide rub bish, but this is the first time I ever found a shoe.” And he sat down to make out his bill for repairs. UNZIE’S MARVELOUS HAIR. Looks of an Am trallaa That Have to Bo Cat Twice a Week. It has hitherto been believed that the lowest specimen of tbe hnman race was the Australian aborigine. A curious contradiction of this theory is found in the presence of an intelli gent, well educated Australian na tive in this country. Except in the contour of his features, he resembles his race in nothing. He is quite white, well formed and can converse agreeably on almost any topic. Born twenty-seven years ago in Tarraboudza, New South Wales, he was worshiped as a kind of god by his own people, the “black fellows,"until an English colonist stole him away and exhibited the phenomenal child in Melbourne. The most interesting thing about Unzie is his hair. It is a great snow-white mass, which 6tands out all around his bead like an opened, umbrella, and measures six feet in circumference. The growth of these white locks is simply marvelous. They require trimming twice a week to keep them at their present length. Unzie is a great traveler, making his first ap pearance in this country when he landed at San Francisco five years ago. He appears to have completely lost all desire to revisit the scenes of his childhood where it is probable he is Btill worshiped as “the white god.” lie Was Wrong. Relieff, a Russian man of letters, had been implicated in the conspiracy of 1825 and sentenced to be hanged. He was launched from the fatal lad der, when the rope broke and he was thrown to the ground, severely bruised, but conscious. He picked himself up and said, quietly, “they can do nothing in Russia, not even twine a cord properly.” It was cus tomary in Russia to pardon the con demned after a similar fiasco, but on Relieflfs words being reported to the late Czar Nicholas and his pleasure demanded, lie rejoined, “provo to him that he is wrong." And they did. An Ere for the Future. “Phwat’s that yez wor recitin’?” said Mr. Dolan to his boy. ‘“Learn to labor and to wait,’” replied the youngster. “Thot’s a very foine bit av sintiment, so ’tis. On’y if yez in herit yer father's job an the new posht office—as Oi hope ye may—yez won’t hov to bother about the labor part av it. All yez want to practice I an is l’arnin’ to wait.” I -- [ Big Income From ••Ada.” | There is a little patch of land abut ; ting on one of the magnificent build ; ings that flank Victoria street, West ! minster, London, which has remained waste for more than twenty years. | It is surrounded by a high boarding covered with advertisements. The income derived from these is such that it would not pay the proprietor to substitute a building. SAVAGES WHO ARE CIVILIZED. African Matlvas Who Han ■ Motion of tho Arts and Science*. •‘Most people think of tho natives of tropical Africa as naked savages, without any of the resources of civili zation,” said an ex-missionary. “But the fact is that many of the tribes are acquainted with not a few of the me chanical arts. • ‘You are probably aware that the mining and working of iron have been understood by the natives of that part of the world ever since prehistoric times. In Liberia the Mande are smelters of iron and workers in gold and silver. They are also tanners of leather and weavers of cloth, and they make an infinite variety of domestic articles. The Makolos are excellent wood carvers, the Djours are skillful iron workers, and the Bechuanas are good metal workers, fur dressers, and architects. The Baganidas of Victoria Nyanza do beautiful work in brass, copper and ivory. On the slave cdhst the people of Dahomey, who otherwise possess an unenviable reputation, are accredited a very respectable position in industrial artisanship. Glassmak ing is not known among them. They make cloths of cotton and many other textiles, and their dyes of blue, red and yellow owe their peculiar rich ness to native coloring substances. Tanning they also understand, and they obtain salt from sea water by evaporation. i>iio LiiuutttriOH oi me White Nile at Sakara and Benghieh are tribes of natives as white as Euro peans, having oval faces and silky hair. In Dahomey public prostitutes were licensed and the proceeds of the tax paid into the public treasury long before the practice was adopted by modern legislatures and considered as a radical departure in modern civ ilization. Lord Beaconsiield said of the Zulus: “They have outwitted our diplomats, outmanenvered our generals and converted our mission aries, and yet we call them savages.” The Mandegnas have attained a considerable degree of cultivation and knowledge of the common arts. Their musical instruments are the flute, harp, bell, and drum. The Veis of Liberia having obtained an acquaintance with letters from con tact with Arabs, have invented an alphabetical primer of their own language, original and independent both of the Arabic and English char acters. This is the greatest effort ever made by an African tribe toward the advancement of culture. The Veis make pens of reeds and use in digo for ink. “A'rica is destined before long to become the great gold producing con tinent of the world. In 1889 it yielded $8,600,000 worth of that metal. Last year it produced about $25,000,000 worth of gold. During 1894 the output of its gold mines probablye qualed the $86,000,000 pro duced by the United States. “The total exportation of diamonds from the cape, of Good Hope, from the date of their discovery to the present, has probably exceeded $350, 000,000. The annual expenditure in digging for the gems is now $5,000, 000, and the export is limited to 4,500,000 of carats annually, to pre vent a depreciation in price. The Orange Free state has recently given to the world the largest known dia mond, weighing in the rough 970 carats, and likely to weigh when cut 500 carats. “The rum of the white man is a curse to the natives of Africa. It is estimated that 10,000,000 gallons of spirits are annually imported into the dark continent.” MISTRUSTED HIS SEX. EIU of a Durham Minor—'Opposed to a Possible Successor. A Durham miner, aged 78, visited a Newcastle lawyer (a bachelor) for the purpose of making his will. The old man’s property consisted of two small cottages, which had cost him flfiO and some furniture. The lawyer, having asked his client how he wished to dispose of his prop erty, says Pearson’s Weekly, the lat ter replied: “31a and woman hes to hev all se lang as she’s ma widow. Efter that ma bairns gets all.” “What age is your old woman?” asked the lawyer. “Seventy-two,” replied the miner. “And how long have you and your wife been married?” asked the lawyer. “Over fifty years,” replied the miner. Thereupon the lawyer suggested to his client that he should give the wife the interest during her life, whether she continued a widow, or otherwise. “Hinney, aa winnot; aa’ll hev ma aan way,” said the minor. “But surely,” replied the lawyer, “you don’t expect your old woman now 73 years old would marry again after your death?” The miner, looking the lawyer full in the face, answered with much solemnity: “Wey, hinney, thor’s nae knaaing what young chops like your self will do for money.” With Three Years Difference. In a Western court a negro was convicted of stealing a mule. Before the sentence was pronounced, the judge gave him an opportunity to speak for himself, and he said: “I wouldn’t er tuck de mule nohow ef I hadn't react in de testermint whar Jesus tuck a mule.” The judge re marked: “Yes, but he didn't ride him to Kingston and try to sell him,” and thereupon he gave the negro three years in the penitentiary.— Argonaut. Halldlng Dp Th.lr Navy. Twenty-seven war vessels were added to the British navy last year, exclusive of five torpedo boats, at a cost of about 112,000,000. Tho record for 1895 will go even beyond this. England is enlarging her navy - * even more zeal than ever before COURIER FOR HER OWN SEX. How the Daughter of a Reduced Mil lionaire Get* Pelf and rleaanre. Here is a novel profession one of the daughters of a reduced millionaire has thought out all for herself, says Demorost’s Magazine, and she makes money and pleasure enough from it to insure a pleasant life for herself. In the days of her father's glory she traveled far and wide, and now, being turned of 35, and with no oalling to depend upon, she decided to become a courier for lonely or helpless women travelers. This is what she will do: If you have a notion for a change of air and scene, and are an ignorant, timid, helpless body, she will drop around with maps, guidebooks and a railroad schedule and talk routes and resorts. Everything is just at her fingers’ enas, from Alaska to the Argentine republic. She knows time tables like a train dispatcher, prices like a ticket agent and a lot more than they know. Scenery, cli mate, human comforts and discom forts, the efficacy of all springs and airs,the rates and capacities of hotels, everything is stored for use in that busy brain. You think you would like to go to California; in an hour she has figured out every line by which you could possibly reacn the Pacific coast, with all the advantages in scenery, comforts, time and cost by every route. Tnen she gives advice as to proper dress, the best season for going, where to go when you get there, what to see, how to see it, and then, having from all this perfectly understandable data made your choice, she will procure for you a perfectly finished traveling maid. Or, if you wish to go alone, she puts into your hand, the day of departure, a little roll of typewritten manuscript and an envelope, The envelope contains tickets, with minute directions as to their use, and the manuscript the itineracy of the journey. When in doubt on any point reference to this sots one firmly in the right path; every possible difficulty and con tingency she has calculated for and fully explained. Her remuneration is gauged by tne length of the journey and the amount of time and trouble she needs to expend on each patron ess. In the spring she 4s busy send ing off mothers with their children to the various resorts. The mothers ex plain to her that they can expend just so much on the summer’s outing, and her care is to make the money *do its best duty. From July to Septem ber 8ne takes her holiday by playing courier to somebody who wishes to take a jaunt through Europe. It is needless to say she is the most de lightful traveling companion in the world. His Eastern Cognomen. A young Colorado mining engineer, whom we will call Morton, according to Harper’s “Drawer,” was once seated in a chair in a Denver barber shop undergoing a shave. The talk turned on the case of a man who, be ing on trial for murder, had been recognized by visitors to the court room as a young theological student from a middle state, where he had been the possessor of a spotless repu tation and a totally different name. The conversation thereupon drifted to the subject of changed identities. Morton’s barber rubbed the razor on the strap reflectively and said: “Yes, it’s surprising how many men change their names after they get out West. By the way, Morton, what was your name back EastP” “Mister Morton,” was the quiet reply. It Hav Do as Xnch for Yon. Mr. Fred Miller, of Irving, 111.
