Something la always wrong with man
or beast, and It li not always con
venient to aend for a physician or a
horse doctor. Dr. Kendall's Perfected
Receipt Book is a plain, commonsense,
practical book, which any man or wo
man can understand. As a rule sue
works are too complicated and can not
be understood by people who need the
Information most. People do not care
for a book of this kind which calls for
doctor to explain. They want a book
which needs no explanation and which
will help them out of their difficulties
and at the same time save them big
expense bills.

An Unused Type.
I might pile Ossa upon Pellon In the

type of gray eye I have not yet noted.

But, at the present writing, I have
yet to meet with golden-gray eyes In
fiction. They are to be found, how
ever. In nature, the most luminous of
all eyes, I think, the Iris about the edge

The Matinee Hat.
A clergyman has discovered a
for
midable reason for the abolition of the
matinee hat. These articles of fash
ionable attire are. It seems, the resort
ft diabolical agencies, which may be
the real cause of so many gentlemen
In theatres and concerts using strong
language about them. At any rate,
the reverend gentleman asserts that In
the days of the Archbishop of Canter
bury the "matinee hat," or Its ancient
prototype, was common among the
women who attended church, and be
came such a nuisance that the prelate
proclaimed that the hats were full of
demons, iuid stopped his sermon In or

beads and stamp them under his feet.
From that time until quite recently the
"matinee hat" was unknown. Unfor

SOME FAMOUS HEADS.
On his return from his holiday In
France a few days ago, Lord Saiigbury
took part In a dlscuseton in the house
on the completion of Wellington's mon
ument In St. Paul's cathedral. Reply
ing to questions as to what had become,
of the model for a proposed equestrian
statue of the great duke, he stated that
the model waa lying In the crypt, rnlnui
the head, which had disappeared. He
added, with a touch of his old bitter
humor, that "the heads of eminent per
sons had often a way of becoming dis
sociated from their bodies." and th
gibe has attracted much notice.
To what head or heads did he refer?
Was he thinking of the "Blessed Mar
tyr," Charles the First, or waa this a
sly hit at the trouble raised over the
disappearance of the Mahdi's head?
But, whatever he meant, he was well
within the bounds of fact In his state
ment, for there are several heads of
persons very eminent In their day
which have for hundreds of years been
dissociated from their bodies and are
never likely to be reunited to them.
The mummified head of Oliver Crom
well, for Instance, which on the restora
tion was torn from the exhumed body
and stuck on a spike upon the roof of
Westminster hall, la now In private
ownership. It belongs to Mr. Horace
Wilkinson, of Seal Chart, near Seven
oaks. He Inherited It from his grand
father, who purchased It from the
daughter of a showman. The showman
in his turn had purchased the grew
some relic from some descendants of
Cromwell, whose ancestors had bought
It from a sentry who saw It blown
down from tbe roof of Westminster hall
one tempestuous night and had secret
ed It The Iron spike, which transfixed
the skull, and a portion of the wooden
post are still attached to It. .
Another highly Interesting' historical
relic Is the mummified head of the
father of Lady Jane Grey, Henry Grey,
Duke of Suffolk, who was beheaded for
high treason on Tower Hill, February
22, ISM. It was discovered many years
since, during the progress of some
restorations In the Church of Holy
Trinity, Mlnortea, buried In a boa
placed beneath the altar. The bog was
Sllad with oak sawdust, which had com
pletely tanned the head. It Is on reo- i
ord that the executioner bungled bis
work, having to give two strokes of his 1
axe before the Duke was decapitated. 1
and these marks are still plainly visible i
on the leather-like flesh. Its presence
here Is explained by tha supposition
that the head was claimed by relatives, !
who buried it here in somewhat the I
same way as Margaret Roper, the
daughter of Sir Thomas More, obtained .
the severed head of her father, and 1
had It placed In a niche of tbe Roper
YBbUll in UK um ciiurvu VI OV. iWIIWH,
at Canterbury, where It may yet be

Another of these relics, placed behind

of St. Gregory's church, Sudbury, Buf-
folk, Is the skull of Simon ds Sudbury,
Archbishop of Canterbury, whs) was
dragged from the Tower of London and
hArr.amiialv nut to death bv Wat TV-
lei's rebels In 1381. His body waa taken
to Canterbury and a magnificent chan
try erected over It In the sholr of the
cathedral. Some years ago this tomb
was opened, and It was then discovered
that the place where the head should
have been was filled by a ball of lead.

ART OF SNAKE CHARMING.
A few days ago there appeared in one
of the dally papers a wonderful story
of a snake which was charmed by the
Btralns of a Jews-harp. The story was
to the effect that a countryman meet
ing a dangerous reptile in the road,
was horrified at seeing the creature
prepare to attack him. Being an en
thusiastic performer on the Jews
harp he Immediately struck up the
tune, "St. Patrick's Day In the Morn
ing," which either paralyzed the ser
pent or sent a series of sentimental
chills down Its undulating vertebrae.
At any rate it discarded all hostile in
tentions and became motionless, when
the countryman mercilessly ground Its
head In tbe dust.
This Is an example of the many
"snake stories" which appear constant
ly before the eyes of credulous human
ity. It originates, like all of Its kind,
from superstitious sources. Snakes
are utterly devoid of any sense of ap
preciation of music They have no
ears, and although they may distin
guish vibration of heavy sounds upon
their heavy scales, a voracious, hungry
snake Is entirely Ignorant of the
presence of the chirping bird, provid
ing it does not sae or scent Its prey.
The familiar exhibitions of the East
Indian fakirs, during which the deadly
cobra Is made to "dance" to tbe
music of a flute, have led many to be
lieve that these creatures are extreme
ly sensitive to the sound of music. But
exhibitions of this character are only
tricks practiced by tbe celever Hindoo,
and the cobra .Instead of being In a
quiescent, charmed condition as it
waves its body to and fro Is really In
a fit of Intense anger.
Not long ago a large cobra was In
the possession of Dr. Joseph C. Thomp
son, of the United States navy. This
reptlla was purchased by Dr. Thomp
son In South Africa. It was then In
possession of some professional snake
charmers. After It had left their hands
It was made to go through a lively
performance without the accompani
ment of the wierd music of the fakir.
The operation of making the cobra
dance la very simple. The reptile has
the characteristic habit of elevating
the forward part of the body from the
ground when annoyed, spreading Its
neck or hood and glaring fiercely at the
object of Us anger. When In this po
sition Its keen eyes watch eagerly for
a chance to deliver a deadly blow.ob

COUNTRY MAIL ROUTES.
Crawfordsvllle, Ind. (Special.) -Montgomery
county has tried the fre
rural mall delivery system and It
pleased.
There are now In operation almost a
dozen free rural mall routes. Some of
these have been In operation a year and
all of them have demonstrated that free
rural delivery la eminently practicable.
The operation of the Montgomery coun
ty routes has been satisfactory not
only to the country people favored, but
also to the postofflce department.
The Montgomery county routes are
all about 30 miles in length, running out
one road for perhaps twelve miles, cut
ting across country perhaps six miles
and returning to Crawfordsvllle or the
town of their beginning by a third road.
The growth of mall business under the
Influence of the rural delivery of mall
has been vary satisfactory. The first
month of the delivery each of the car
riers then in the service delivered
about 1,000 pieces of mall matter. At
the end of the first year they are each
delivering over 6,000 plecea a month.
For the first three months of operation
they would each collect along the
route from eight to ten letters a day.
Now the dally collection on each of
the year-old routes Is from SO to 60
letters dally, besides packages and
newspapers.
When rural mall delivery was estab
lished In Montgomery county not a sin
gle dally paper was taken along any
route. Each carrier now delivers from
70 to 100 daily newspapers. The In
creased subscription to magaslnee and
other periodicals Is Just as great. When
the routes were first established many
f the farmers were decidedly opposed
to the Innovation, Some even refused
to put up the boxes.
All opposition has now disappeared.
however, and so greatly pleased are
the farmers that an Increased valua
tion of $2 per acre Is given farms lying
along rural routes. People living aa far
from the route as two miles frequently
place lock boxes at the nearest point
on the route and have their mall deliv
ered there. The people living on by
roads hava In some Instances adopted
a novel method of obtaining the cov
eted benefit at small expense. The mall
tor all the people living on a certain
by-road will be delivered at a box
placed at the Intersection of the road
with the route, and from this box It
will be taken daily and delivered for
ten or twelve miles back In the coun
try by a boy paid for the purpose.
Rural delivery Is proving a great
timulua to the construction of good
roads and at least two new pikes In
Montgomery can be attributed to the
hope of securing the service. The car
riers are allowed to deliver packages
and to transact business for the people
living, along their routes, and In this
way they manage to supplement in a
very acceptable manner the meager
lalaries allowed by the department. The
carriers' wagons on leaving the Craw
fordsvllle postofllce each morning will
be seen to be filled with packages of
laundry, dry goods, hardware and all
manner of merchandise. Orders of all
kinds are placed with the carrier. In
the busy summer season he is an espe
cial benefit in this way.
The practical operation of the rural
free delivery has demonstrated conclu
sively that many of the objections
made to It are unfounded. It has been
urged that rural delivery would be an
Immense expense to the government,
bat its operation In Montgomery coun
ty proves that It will on the contrary
be a source of considerable revenue.
Bach of the year-old routes In the coun
ty Is now paying the government a net
profit of $40 per month. As a rule, each
route does away with either a fourth
class postofflce or a star route. These,
of course, have alwaya been an expense
to the government as great as the op
eration of a rural route, so the sub
stitution could make practically no
inference In the cost to the govern
ment. The rural route, however, so
Increases the postal receipts from the
country that the government makes a,
good profit. One route Just established
In Montgomery county will do away
eventually with three little offices.
Superintendent Dice reports that the
experience of Montgomery county is
proving to be that of most other coun
ties and that nowhere Is the service be
ing operated at a loss to the govern
ment after it has once been established.
The tradesmen In towns from which
rural routes run at first objected that
they would prove the ruination of
business. They reasoned that If the
farmer had his mail delivered he would
have no cause to come to town and
consequently stay away. Their fears
proved groundless. With his mall de
livered dally, the farmer still makes his
weekly or semi-weekly visits to town.
He Is enabled to keep in toucn wltn
what Is going on In town by the dally
papers and to take advantage of op
portunities of which he was formerly
kept in ignorance.
