FOUR YEARS OF" AGONY, i
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
Had to Use Crutches "Cuti
cura Remedies the Best on
Earth."
"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.

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.
Owing to its acidity, buttermilk is
of laxative property and is supposed
to make general impression on - the
liver. It can often be taken by those
unable to take fresh cow's milk and
has been found valuable in the treat
ment of diabetes, gastric ulcer and
cancer of the stomach. It is said to
be one of the most digestible of milk
products and is recommended to
serve the double purpose of food and
leverage. .. - -

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.

Sardinia Once Wild Country.
Sardinia was a wild place in the
xaiddle of the last century. 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

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.

Compromise.
"I have a little granddaughter,
said a senator, "who is very fond of

breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying

- Throws Rays Half a Mile.
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.
