"In the year 1899 the side of my right foot was cut off from the little toe down to the heel, and the physi cian who had charge of me was . try ing to sew up the side of my foot, but with no success. At last my whole foot and way up above my calf was nothing but proud flesh. X suffered un told agonies for four years, and tried different physicians and all kinds of ointments. I could walk only with crutches. In two weeks afterwards I saw a change in my limb. Then I be gan using Cuticura Soap and Oint ment often during the day, and kept; It up for seven months, when . my Imb was healed up Just the same as if I never had trouble. It is eight months now since I stopped using Cuticura Remedies, the best on God's earth. I am working at the present day after five years of suffering ' The cost of Cuticura Ointment and Soap was only $6, but the doctors' bills were more like $600. John M. Lloyd, 718 S. Arch Ave, Alliance; Ohio, June 27. 1905." THE CAMERA FIEND. Han Was Not Satisfied with Ordinary Amusement Like Taking Pictures. A well-known criminal lawyer on3 day sauntered into a police court Just as a case was called. It appeared that the defendant had no attorney, and the Judge glanced about the room to Bee whom he might assign to the case. "I'll take it. Judge," the late comer said, wishing to pass away the time. ; By the way, what is the man charged with?" the attorney presently asked. "He's a camera fiend of the worst sort, Mr. Brown," the Judge said wfth a slight smile. "I expect to send him to the workhouse for about three months." "What!" the lawyer shouted, Indig nantly. "Your honor must be Joking Snd a man to the rock pile for three months for a little harmless amuse . ment like taking pictures?" ."Well," the Judge said, mildly, "he don't take pictures much it's the cameras he takes." i LOVE LOBE. I,t is easier to love and be wise than to be generous and have money. Jealousy is green and does not harmonize with Love's hair and eyes, Love laughs at locksmiths, because parents don't lock, up their daugh ters any more. When Poverty comes In at the door Truelove engages her on the spot to do the cooking. The pity of Love's blindness is that marriage is the only oculist that guar. antees to restore the sight. ., Don't complain of your lover's am a teurlshness. In this you have pr6of positive that you are the first. Show me the sweethearts of the land, and I will confess myself that much more puzzled about the men. Life gave a dinner, and, while .' it may not have been a feast from an epicure's point of view, it was a great success. The guest oC honor was Love. ' When Love begins to sicken and decay, sometimes the. tonic of In airrerence will effect a quicker re covery than all the careful nursing in the world. Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wear ing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using Te- fiance Starch, ns lb can be applied much more thinly because of its great er strength than other makes. FACTS ABOUT HUMANITY.

ABOUT PRESSING FLOWERS Pressed Flowers Are Pleasant Sou venirs of a Vacation How They May Be Preserved. No prettier fir more1 pleasure-giving vacation spent at the seashore or in the country could be found than a spec imen book filled with dried flowers, leaves and seaweeds, and the work of gathering and preparing them' would amuse the most indifferent hoy or girl. Then it is Very simple, and costs lit tle time and trouble. - The collector should provide him self with a tin botanical box, or, lack ing this, with several dozen sheets of soft, thick, unglazed wrapping paper, and two boards for covers. The paper and the boards should be several inches larger than the book in which the specimens are to be preserved, ad vises, the Chicago Inter Ocean. As each specimen is gathered, place it between two sheets of the paper, being careful to make it lie in a natural position. When the collector reaches home, he should transfer the specimens to fresh sheets of paper, placing several sheets between them, and when they are thus placed, one cm top of the other, they should be weight ed down with anything convenient, say books, or heavy- boards, or even stones. They should remain thus weighted for from 24 to 48 hours,, and should then be removed to fresh sheets of pa per, and be" packed and weighted down as at first, allowing them to stay so for another period of from 24 to 48 hours. The paper used in the first packing may be dried and used again. When the specimens' are taken from the second packing,, they should be mounted or fastened on separate sheets of paper for . preservation. Thfere-' are several- ways of doing this. One way Is to gum down the whole flower or leaf, but a better way is to fasten it la place by putting narrow bands of paper over parts of it. By the last method it is possible, if de sired, to remove the specimen to a fresh sheet of paper. The specimens may be mounted in scrapbook, or the separate sheets may be kept in a box of proper size; if the latter, a light weight should be kept on them. A bit of camphor in the box will preserve the specimens, but better still Is it to open and ex amine them now and then, so that they may get air. No specimen should be put away until it is perfectly dry, or it will mold. On each sheet containing a specimen should be written the name of the flower or leaf, with the place where it was obtained, and the date.

A Dinner Party, Everything should be in readiness sometime before dinner is actually announced, so that the maid can go. round and see that nothing is for gotten. A thing to impress strongly on servants is the necessity for giv ing all plate and glass a final polish before putting it on the table, as nothing looks worse than plate or glass which is finger-marked or not perfectly cleaned. Attention to these little points is the mark of a well trained servant and a good mistress. A Summer Drink.

LIKE EDGE OF THE WORLD Unalaska, in. the Alaskan Islands, c Desolate Spot Where White Men May Not Land. Vnalaska resembles, other northern stations, having warehouses, docks, the inevitable Greek church and a score of wooden cabins. Whalers leave here for the Arctic regions. Dutch Harbor is a station for our revenue fleet There is much coming and going of ships of all nations; there are quite a formidable fleet, and only two ships out of twelve carry colors of the same country. Just before entering the harbor one notices a detached rock high against the side of the cliff. It bears a strik ing resemblance to a Russian priei in full robes. Touched by the sunset light, he seemed to stand blessing the harbor. Sailing north out into Beirring sea, one looks back at the desolate, silent treeless islands, which seem to wall the edge of the world. Hundreds oi miles west they run toward Vladi vostok. Two hundred and forty miles north of Unalaska are the Pribilof islands; not large, but the greatest seal islands in the world. There are many fur seals around the shores of Behring sea and the Aleutian islands, but the great mass of them are bred on the Pribilof group. No white man is per mitted to land on these breeding grounds without a permit, signed by the secretary of the treasury of the United States. Outdoor Life. ABOUT WOMEN. Freshness is not to be desrised in women, vegetables or flowers. A woman, of gushing proclivities is apt to consider herself irresistible. . The woman who nags her husband leservedly sits dovn to a lonely meal. Wise is the wofhan who does not expect a man's devotion at election time. ' The woman who constantly quotes her husband seldom realizes what an intolerable bore she is to others. . A woman with a musical voice may babble of coal dust and sauer kraut, and still compel you to think of lute strings. Exchange. International Cyclopedia.

A trav eler says: "The men are clothed in goat-skins, one before and another behind, without breeches,, shoes or stockings, and a Woolen or skin cap on the head. The women have no other habiliments than a long woolen jown and a woolen cap. The peas ants always go armed to defend them selves from one another, so that trav eling in the interior is extremely un safe without an escort; and it is even dangerous for ships to send their peo ple on shore for water unless they are well armed. In short, the Sardes are the Malays of the Mediterranean Paper Telegraph Poles. Serviceable telegraph poles can. It ii found, be constructed of paper. Such poles are made of paper pulp, in which borax, tallow, etc., are mixed in small quantities. The pulp is cast in a mold with a core in the center, and forms a hollow rod of the desired length. The paper poles are said to be lighter and stronger than those of wood, and to be unaffected by the sun, rain, dampness, or any of the other causes which shorten the life of a wooden pole.

Light rays half a mile long and 24 times as powerful as the sort com monly in use are the new oxy-petrol lime lights that have been invented for the motorists. The lamp consists of an oxy-petrol blowpipe flame play ing on a piece of specially refractory material. A reservoir of material is to be carried on the car and also a cylinder of compressed oxygen. Pre sumably a stream of oxygen under pressure is saturated with petrol va por and burnt in the blowpipe and a small, extremely hot flame is pro duced, this being caused to impinge on something more refractory than lime.
