An Old Superstition.

The belief that warts m aybe
charmed away or removed by va
rious superstitious practices has a
certain attraction for many people
of "A .non-scientiffc turn of mind, to
whom it may be pleasure to
know that so eminent n man as
Lord Bacon was not without a
little weakness in this direction.
After telling in one of his works
that he had a wart on one of his
fingers from early childhood, and
that when a youth in Paris ut least
hundred grew upon his hands in
a months time, he adds:
"The English ambassadors lady,
who was far from superstitious, told
me she would get away with my
warts; and, in order 20 do it, she
rubbed them all over with the fat
side of a piece of bacon with the
rind on-and, among the rest, the
wart | had from my childhood
then nailed the bacon, with the fat
toward the sun, upon post Of her
chamber window, which was TO the
south; and in five weeks time the
warts went away, and the wart |
had so long endured for company.
At the rest | did not wonder, be-
cause, as they came in a short time,
they might go away so too; but the
vanishing of that which had re-
mained so long, sticks with me-

Points in Fruit Drying.

H. S. Jory of this city, who has
had extensive experience in haul
ing fruit, tells the Pacific Express
that fruit-and especially prunes and
plums-in order to dry well must
be picked ripe and put into the
dryer at once before any whiting
takes place.
We had the pleasure lately of
looking through Mr.. Jory's drying
establishment, aud while we were
examining the fruit he showed us a
specimen of prune dried when ripe
and fresh, and another of the same
variety that had been picked before
thoroughly ripe and allowed to lie
in boxes a day or two before being
put into the dryer, and the latter
seemed at least twenty-five per cent
inferior.
There is right and Il wrong
time for everything, and this APP
pears to be emphatically true in the
matter of drying fruit.

Two Old Veterans.

This morning it was our pleasure
to be entertained for few moments
by two old veterans of 1S40-Adam
Stephens and G. b, Wagnon, who
voted for Old Tippe in 1910. The
latter gentleman is an old pioneer.
Born in 1900, he remembers many
administrations and has always
been a strong democrat, but he voted
for Old Tippe because he thought
him the better man. His memory
is replete with interesting facts of
history, and though now nearly
ninety years of age has never had
occasion to require the services of Il
doctor.

Settled Now and Hanpy.

A few days ago the writer, in
coming into Portland from eastern
Washington, got into conversation
with a man from Minnesota who
had his ticket through to San Fran
cisco. The stranger was going right
on through the Willamette valley
without ever so much as taking a
look at it. He told us he wanted to
purchase about ten acres close to a
good market, and go into the egg
and chicken business. He thought
San Francisco would be just the
place, but we spoke to him of the
market afforded by Portland for
eggs and chickens-that they inn
ported largely from Iowa and the
east-and he decided to stop and
look around. The result is told in a
few words. He was pleased beyond
description, bought ten acres and is
now building houses, coops, incu-
bators, etc, and generally preparing
for the raising of chickens in an eX-
tensive scale. He expects to have
at least 5000 pullets before May
next.

A Passion For Cats.

The story comes to us from Silver
ton. 1t is well vouched, else the
circumstance would not be men
toned. 1t is said in that fair city
there lives a prominent but eccentric
man who has an antipathy to cats.
He has a loving wife and Il sweet
little daughter. The little girl dear
ly loves a cunning kitten, but the
pleasure of owning one has always
been denied her On several oc-
casions she had managed for a few
days to keep littlepet but as soon
as the dear papa would hear Of it he
would dispatch the felines. One
day last week the little girl had an
unusually bright and playful kitten
given her. This she brought home
and her mother told her she might
keep it. The father came home in
the evening to his supper as usual,
spied the cat and was angered. The
mother explained that the little girl
cried so longingly for it that she at
last consented 10 let her keep it.
This enraged the father, who
grasped the cat by its hinder parts
and battered its brains out upon the
mothers head. The man is eccen-
trio, you will admit?

AGO Curiosity Shop.
Where il is What is, What has done, and What Going to do

The Waco Curiosity Shop is at TOT
and III Austin street. The Waco Gu
rlosity Shop Is the place to buy and
sell all kinds of secondhand goods.
They carry full and complete stock
of furniture, stoves, lamps glassware,
trunks, sewing machines, and nearly
every AZ ticle needed for housekeeping.
1t is the place that never tries to hum
bug the people with so-called Cost
Sales, Moving Sales, or other devices
to deceive. 1t is the place where they
can and do sell goods at fair profit
so that there is no accumulation of old
time-worn goods. 1t is the poor mans
friend. The Curiosity Shop was start
ed less than three years ago with less
than small fortune, and good name.
Since then it has sold nearly $4,000
worth Of goods. 1t has helped hum
dreds of people to furnish their homes
when they could not do so in any 9TH
or way. 1t has continued to grow,
make friends and prosper as no other
house in Waco ever did with same
capital.
Now let me tell you what the Curl
osity Shop is going to do. 1t is going
to have the best stock of new stoves.
furniture, trunks and general house.
hold goods it ever had. 1t is going to
meet all competition and lead 1t when
we can. 1t will make special low
prices in new cook and heating stoves
and in the future as in the past, try
to make as many friends as possible,
realizing that it is by our friends we
live. Thanking all for past favors
and our prosperity, we are as ever,
| Waco Curiosity Shop.

Some men engage in business with |
very little money, having an album
dance of push and get up and get and
good common business sense, knowing
how, when and where to buy goods,
pushing rapidly to the front, are al
ways glad to meet and welcome COM
petition, rejoicing in the prosperity of
all, with the motto, "Onward and up
ward" ever before them. They real
ize the fact that ten years ago are not
the ways of to-day, that old fogyism
is dead. Such men deserve success.
Others starting in business when
all it was thought necessary for man
to know was what he paid for an ar
ticle and to sell it at double the cost.
Such men soon get disguised at the
business push and success of the mod
ern merchant, and rather than meet
competition stands Off and defies it
rather than sell goods at fair profit,
let them lay on the shelves and rust
and grow old. Gradually dropping
back, back, back, and out, leaving
business for younger men, and men
that are aware of the fact that this
is the Nineteenth Century.

Goods at the Curiosity Shop are sold

To defy competition is one thing, to
meet it squarely and bravely is an

Can goods that are or 10 years old
be new and fresh?
The Curiosity Shop sold more stoves
