Striker’s Wife Put Up Effective Plea for Finery. A woman went into a little millin ery shop In One hundredth street, near Amsterdam avenue, the other day and asked to see a hat. A chiffon creation, of which the price was $2 was shown her, and she expressed a keen desire for it. “May I have it now,'1 she asked, “if I’ll leave fifty cents on deposit, and bring in the rest later?’’ “That’s very unusual,’’ replied the milliner. “When could you pay the balance?” “That’s just the point,” said the woman. “I don’t know. My husband is a plasterer. He makes $5.25 a day while he is work ing. But he has been on strike for four weeks, and we have nothing.” “But how do you live in the mean time?” she was asked. "Hock every thing we have, like the rest of the strikers,” replied the woman. “Every thing we own is in pawn, but I must have that hat.” She got it.—New York Sun. Why Nations Wear Ccftors. Did It ever occur to you that, the huuch of colored ribbons you wear In your buttonhole—or pinned on your dress If you are a girl—at commence ment, or at a baseball or football game, is really a flag? asfcs a writer in St. Nicholas. It tells to what class or school or college you belong, or which of these, for the time, has your interest and sympathy. And for sotne what similar reasons do nations wear their colors. At first, maybe, It was to tell one another apart; but after awhile the colors—the flag—came to represent the nation itself; and the way the people acted toward the na tion’s flag was supposed to show the wav thev felt toward the nation. Reason for Left-Handedness. A scientist has recently published a hmcnure on the subject of right and lort handedness. The explanation for the phenomena in any person .is traced to the pressure of the blood in the two halves of his brain. He concludes that for righthanded sub jects there is an excess of pressuro in the left half of the brain, accom panied by an excess of excitability and of vitality In all those parts of the body dependent on the left brain. For left-handed people the reverse is true. Brilliant Censor. The Turkish censor is a man of great breadth of mind and intelli gence. He recently edited the Bible carefully before it was allowed to be used much in Turkey, and he has Just suppressed a book on chemistry be cause it contained the awful symbol H20. He said that it was highly rev olutionary and that beyond a doubt H20 was the cipher for "llamld II is naught." Ostentation. "You say that man’s relations won't speak to him?'* said the surveyor who had stopped at .the log cabin. “Yes. An’ it serves him right. Jes’ as soon as he come Into a little property be bought hisself a glass eye an’ a set o' false teeth, an’ his kin’ reckoned it was mighty ill-mannered to come around puttin’ on style an’ wearin’ all that Jewelry." Happiness for Old Maids. “Honey, when's you gwine ter git married?” The engagement had not been announced, so the young woman replied: “Why, I don’t know, auntie; I am not even engaged. What do you think of that?” The old colored wom an said: “Laws-a-rae! but that suttin ly am a pity. But, Miss Nancy, they do say that ole maids is the happiest critters there is, once they quits strug glin’.-—Harper's Magazine. Would Kill Sparrows. The London board of agriculture advocates diminishing the number of house sparrows. It has been found by hundreds of examinations that from 75 to 80 per cent of the food of the adult birds throughout the year consists of cultivated grain. The ag gregate total taken when the spar rows are unchecked is very large. Lightning Rods Out of Date. A New York architect, who has put up many country Rouses, say? that he has not during the last decade been called on once to put a lightning rod on any of these houses. The light ning rod has disappeared altogether as a means of protection on new houses. Bring Out Your Old Furniture. Six Hepplewhlte chairs have Just been sold for,$350 and two Chippen dale armchairs for $105 at Norwich. Great Britain's Emigrants. Taking into account her population, Great Britain sends more of her sub jects abroad than any other country. Monument to LI Hung Chang. Several Chinese cities have erected temples in honor of Li Hung Chang. His tomb also has the form of a tem ple. Two of its Inscriptions are: “All countries in the world mourn him” and “He changed heaven and revolu tionized the earth.” THE PROPERTIES OF MUSK. In One Sense It Is as Powerful as Radium. Radium was the subject under dis cussion, and a lawyer said: "I don’t see anything so very wonderful in radium. Admit that it does throw1 off light and heat in a kind of perpetual motion without any loss of weight or energy—well, won’t a grain of musk do the same thing? One single grain oi musk (this has been demonstrated) will scent for several years a room twelve feet square, and in the end the grain will still remain entire. Con sider what this means. A room twelve 1 feet square contains 2,985,984 cubic inches, and each one-tenth cubic inch at least must have its little mole cule of musk, or otherwise all the air would not be perfumed. One grain of musk, that is to say, will radiate millions and millions of musk frag ments for years, and still it will re main whole. Can radium beat that?” A SurKlml Operation is always dangerous—do not always submit to the surgeons knife until you have tried DeWitt’s Wicth Hazel Salve It will cure when everything else fails —it has done this in thousands of eases. Here is one of them I suffered from bleeding protruding pills lor twenty years. Was treated by different special ists and used many remedies, but obtain ed no relief nntil I used DeWitt,s Witch Hazel Salve. Two boxes cured me eighteen months ago and I have not had a touch of the pills since-H. A. Tis dale, Surnmerton, S. C.

Goolier’s Weekly, 138 West 1 th Street New York. CONTAINS EVERY ANTISEPTIC AND The Great GERM ANI) INSECT DESTROYER GERMICIDE KNOWN TO SCIENCE HOG CHOLERA ts a Kerin disease of the intestines. The cholera bacteria Anris its way into the animal through the drinking water or filth, passing into the stomach and finally down along the Intestines it sets up fermentation and from there througt the blood, liver and other organs. Hog cholera cannot be treated successfully unless treatment is commenced before tlie germ lias readied the period of rapid multiplication. If taken in time it can be cured and in all cases prevented by the use of Liquid Koal because it is the only germicide that will pass through the stomach into the intestines and from there into ttie blood, permeating the whole system, and st ll retain its germ killing properties. All other so called cholera cures loose tiller potency by the acid reaction of the gast ric jucies of ili<j stomach, hence have no value. Lipuid Koal is also the best remedy for chicken cholera.
