SORE THRoATs.-Sore throats vanish
wien encircled in silken handkerchief.
This is established beyond peradvcnture.
The grandmothers knew all about this a
hundred years ago. They believed, too,
that silk would cure all other diseases, and
some Of them thought it would cure a bro
ken leg, .'if only taken in time" We do
not go so far as that, but we know that silk
will absorb and store electricity as readily
as Leyden jar. 1t forms an essential cur.
tain for the electric cylinder, and rubbed
with quicksilver has a mysterious power
that imparts force to its retention. The
curative force of silk is due to its electricity
and the medical faculty recommend silken
hose and shirts for thousand diseases.
AS we are not professional we only take
silk by the throat, and know its wonderful
powers. We will give sure recipe When
YOU have the throat trouble, give a nice,
clean silk handkerchief to your sweetheart,
with request to tie it around your neck.
If YOU are not cured, or choked by tender
hands, we have made mistake. The more
expensive the 'kerchief the surer the cure,
because your pet takes so long to examine
the quality and get it just right, so it won't
hurt. Try it and go home cured. We ex-
pect silk handkerchiefs will advance in price
when this matter is understood.

ORIGIN or WHIST.-The origin and date
of the first playing of whist have of late
been much discussed, particularly IN Eng
land, where the game receives degree and
study we'll nigh religious Edmund Hoyle,
the earliest writer Of any nu;c ON whist,
commonly called The father o: the game,
published his first ''Sho.t Treaties" about
1742, in his seventieth year. Though edu-
Gated for The Law, he "Ycd cards passion
ately, and was SO ski'ltui i player that he
used to receive ii guinea Il lesson for teach
ire different game. He s;,nnr his days and
nights at the card .a''ls. which so agreed

is not named by any writer Of the Eliza
hethan era. The earliest reference to whist
is in 1921, in the poems Of John Taylor, the
water poet. In The fist cIilion Of Cotton S
"Compete Gamesler' 1G72). no allusion is
made to whist, but in the second edition,
issued six years later, it is mentioned as a
game COMMONLY known in Eng and.' Cot
toms saying that the game gets its name
from the silence observed in playing it,
although generally accepted, is by many re-
garded as incorrect. The proper name is
probably whisk.

yssp:ngton's Quarrel With Paysa. r.

Wssp:ngton's Quarrel With Payaa.
"It was ii that era" said Mr.. Brockett,
the white whiskered auditor OF Alexandria,
"n which Washington had his quarrel with
Lieutenant Payne. We were standing at q
window on the second floor of the market
house and looking down into the great open
court which it surrounds. The court IS
filed with hundreds of little wooden booths
where The farmers bring their produce and
display it for sale on every market day.
The meat stalls are in the building itself,
but the whole is of comparatively recent
date, and in Washington's time the place
was an open market space.
The cause of the trouble" continued Mr.
Brocket, was political There was a con-
test for the Virginia Assembly, and Payne
held one political theory while Washington
held another Payne was himself a candi-
date for the Legislature against Fairfax, e!
Alexandria. Washington supported Fair
fas, and when he met Payne he had a hot
political discussion with him on the spot
which you see Just below you. Payne con-
sidcred himself insultcd by one of Washing
toms remarks and Knocked him down. The
moment the assault was over the story
went like lightning through the town that
Colonel Washington was killed, and his
troops, who were stationed with him at
Alexandria at the time, rushed III. They
would have made short work OF Payne if
Washington had not prevented them, and,
pointing to his black eye, told them that it
was his affair and he knew now to manage
it. They thought this meant duel, and
the next day the town was on the qut Uiue
in regard to the affair. The following morn
ing Payne got note from Washington,
asking him to come to the hotel. Payne,
expecting duel, did 80, but be found
Washington with his head tied up, in an
amicable mood. He said, as Payne entered,
and doubt not he had his words cut and
dried beforehand: "Mr. Payne, to err is
human. l was wrong yesterday, but jfyou
have had sufficient satisfaction let Us be
friends. lhcre was decanter of wine and
two glasses on the table, which Washing
ton had ordered to smooth over the trouble.
The two pledged themselves 20 new friend
ships over this, and history relates that they
remained slrcpg friends to the day of Wash
ington's death. Colonel Payne was one of
the pall-bearers at Washington's funeral"

towns are, as a rule, thriftless and
dead. 1t is common for small
great men to speak with contempt
of the local newspapers, but the
village newspaper makes more great
men out Of less material than any
other factor in politics, and it Is
the one ladder on which men climb
to local distinction as the begin
ming of wider fame. The advent OF
the local newspaper has always
dated the increased thrift of the
community. The local newspaper
is the life of the locality, and the
measure of its support, as a rule,
measures the advancement of the
people.
