A Peculiar Gift.

Miss Bertha Simpson, of Martins
vile, Indiana, has a natural gift so
unlike anything | have met with be-
fore that I give the knowledge to the
readers of The Tribune and ask if
there is any other case known. At
Foremother's Day on the program was
"Cornet solo by Miss Bertha Simp-
son." A lady took her seat at the
organ, placed sheet of music before
her, and by her side stood slender
miss of about fifteen years of age.
"Why!" said I, "where is her cor
metz" The chairman replied, cit is
all done with her voice." To my
establishment the young lady most
perfectly initiated cornet and car
ried air with the organ accompanied
with perfect ease as if she were sing
ing. She responded to an encore
and "played" "Marching Through
Georgia. to the delight of the
audience. She was born with this
peculiar vocal gift and assures us that
1t is quite as. easy as whistllng or
singing. She has a fortune in this
gift if she lives.-r Helen M. Cougar,
in Woman's Tribune.

Food Preserved in Cans.

American canned foods, somehow
or other, are cheaper than imported
canned foods of the same kind, and
are just as good in quality. This
discovery of keeping foods, which is
due to French chemist in 1907,
really prolongs the vegetable and fruit
seasons throughout the whole year
and gives distant climes an exchange
of foods. Europeans can compete
with Americans in this industry only
in the canning of delicacies. The
canning process is now used to pre-
serving about all the desirable animal
and vegetable foods. One singular
fact is that the canned foods are in
some cases cheaper than they are
when bought fresh in the market the
reason being that the canning is done
where the foods are the cheapest, and
that there are no wastes. The first
canning was done for meat for sailors,
but the industry was of little account
until tomatoes and oysters were can
ned in this country for local trade
about 1885. The business expanded
in the California gold excitement and
grewto immense proportions during
the civil war; at this time milk was
canned and so were meat and fruits
and vegetables .-[Good Housekeep-

How Shall we Sleep2

Whether one position in sleep is
better than another may be an i'm
portant question, but it does not
seem to have been authoritatiyely
settled that any particular position is
the best to adopt. Sleeping on the
right side is more common than on
the left, and sleeping on the back is
comparatively rare. Evidence has
been found to show that sleeping on
the left side favors bronchitis and
sleeping on the right side appears to
increase a tendency to constipation.
1t has been strongly urged that health
and longevity are best secured by
lowering the head and raising the
feet in sleep though some nervous
affections require a partially erect

Some Clear-cut Replies.

John Plaintalk, in the Newaygo,
Mich, Tribune, makes some clear
cut replies to an opponent of woman
suffrage. He says:
"There is no more sentiment about
it than there is to your mothers
wash-tub. 1t is right straight up and
down business. 1t is question of
right-not sentiment. The franchise
can never be logically held as a ques-
ton of sex. That there shall be no
taxation without representation is a
cardinal doctrine of true republic.
TO set this aside on the ground that
the taxpayer is woman is an insult
to your mother, your sister, and the
common sense of your country. 1t is
worse, for it is a remnant of slavery.
1t declares that women may work and
pay, but shall not exercise the natural
rights which belong to work and pay.
Don't talk either about
giving them the ballot as though it
were your right or mine to give or
withhold. If it is theirs by right, it
is theirs by right. That is all there
is about it. We do not give 1t to
them. We cease withholding what is
theirs as it is ours"
If / did not believe in women vot-
ing, would never listen to their adj
vice; and l give it as a LIES expert
ence that the only serious mistakes |

An Argument for Matrimony.

In an address to young men, DR..
W. Pratt, of London, says that
married life is by far the most health
full. In 1000 married men of twenty
five or thirty years of age there are
six deaths; 1000 bachelors furnish
ten deaths, and 1000 widowers
twenty-five deaths. In young men
married before twenty years the
figures are unfavorable, being fifty
her 1000. In unmarried men under
twenty the rate is but seven per 1000
If girls marry before twenty like
mortality befalls them. Married
people from eighteen to twenty die
as fast as people from sixty to seventy.
After twenty-one marriage should be
contracted as soon as possible,

A Cure for Drunkenness.

The following is said to be a
remedy for drunkenness which is used
in Russia. A physician in recently
published letter regarding it, says:
The effect of this treatment is in
fallible. A drinker is brought to the
physician, and an injection is made
at once. Next day the drinker re-
fuses spirits, and in a few days he
cannot think of them without disgust.
Yesterday this man was senselessly
drunk, sick, unable to muster up will
enough to break with this horrible
habit-to-day he is well and hardly
recognizes himself. Only one treat
ment was necessary and he is well.
Is this, then, no disease, no miracle
of healing medicine? And the means
are so simple-medicine may be proud
of it. The application is quite simple.
One grain of strychnine is dissolved
in two hundred drops of water, and
five drops of this solution are injected
hypodermically once day. This is
repeated for eight or twelve days,
and It's effect is surprising. After
two or three injections the drinker
has appetite and sleep. And If, after
months, he should again begin to
drink, he is afflicted with such symp-
toms (palpitation of the heart, nau-
sea, headache, vomiting that he will
never try it again. 1t is most con-
venient to give this hypodermic in
lection during sleep. The drinker
wakes up fully restored, and will beg
for a second and third injection.
This is magnificent if true. 1t
knocks the moral element all out of
the question, and leaves it disease
durable by medicine. But really the
reports are too magnificent, too good
to be altogether true. Yet if there
is but a 1.-THE of truth in it, it is well
enough and thanks. Some pointing
that way is found in the newest
medical practice in this country,
which treats delirium tremens with
energetic doses of tincture Of nux
vomica Or with strychnine. The
doses indicated above are one-fortieth
grain, moderate dose. A one
thirtieth or one-twentieth grain is
often given by mouth. A hypodermic
dose is one-third stronger than one
administered by mouth.

Praise Your Wife.


Praise your wife, man; for PHYS
sake give her little encouragement;
it won't hurt her. She has made your
home comfortable, your hearth bright,
your food agreeable; for PHYS sake
tell her you thank her, if nothing
more. She don't expect it; it will
make her eyes open wider than they
have for these last ten years; but it
will do her coed for all that, and you,
too.
There many women to-day thirst
ing for a word of aise,-the Ian
guage of encouragement. Through
summers heat and winters toll they
have drudged uncomplainingly, and
so accustomed have their fathers,
brothers and husbands become to
their labors, that they look for and
upon them as they do the daily rising
of the sun and its daily going down.
You know that, if the floor Is clean,
labor has been performed to make 1t
SO. You know that If you can take
from your drawer clean shirt when
ever you want it, somebody's fingers
hvae toiled. Everything that pleases
the eye and the sense has been pro-
duced by work, thought, care, and
efforts, bodily and mental.
Many men appreciate these things,
and feel gratitude for the number
less attentions bestowed upon them
in sickness and health why don't
they come out with hearty "Why,
how pleasant you make things look,
wife," or ~ am obliged to you for
taking so much pains" They thank
the tailor for a good fit; they thank
the man in the horse car who gives
them seat they thank the young
lady who moves along in concert
room; in short they thank everybody
and everything out of doors and come
home, tip their chairs back and their
heels up, pull out the newspaper,
scold if the fire has gone down; or,
if everything is just right, shut their
mouth with a smack of satisfaction,
but never say 81 thank you"
l tell you what, men, young and
old, if you did but show an ordinary
civility toward your wives; if you
gave one hundreth and sixtieth part
of the compliments you almost choked
them with before they were married
if you would stop the badinage about
whom you are going to have when
number one is dead (such things
wives may laugh at, but they sink
deep sometimes); if you would cease
to speak of their faults, however
banteringly, before others-fewer
women would seek for other sources
of happiness. Praise your wife,
then, for all her good qualities, and
you may rest assured that her de-
ficiencies are no greater than your
own T0ur Dumh Animals

The letter of Hon. James G.. Blaine
prohibiting the use of his name as a
presidential candidate was hailed with
delight by all the Republicans through
out the country who place party before
men. Quite number of Republicans
who were committed to Mr.. Blaine and
would have followed the Plumed Knight
to another defeat, have gladly seized
this opportunity to escape. Few men
of any party question the statesman
ship or ability of Mr. Blaine, yet there
was peculiar, understandable fear of
him, that caused even some of his warm
est friends to tremble when they thought
of what might be the probable out
come of elevating him to the presiden-
tial chair.
The letter was not emphatic enough
to satisfy everyone that Mr.. Blaine
meant that he would not accept the
nomination if it was rendered, and that
he really desired to get out of the con-
test. But it furnished road by which
the party will get out of the fearful
dilemma in which it has been founder
ing. New courage will be instilled into
the breasts of those who feared Mr..
Blaine would again be forced upon the
party and again be defeated. Now with
Blaine out Of the way there is almost
certainty of victory assured for the
party, with either of the probable candi-
pates now before the country. A man
can now be found upon which all can
unite, and with united Republican
party voting it's entire strength, that vic
tory will be ours is beyond question.
While we would have no objections to
Mr.. Blaine as president we did not care
to have him nominated for fear he
would be defeated again, as we suspected
he would be before. The thing we need
most is to win; to win with any man
who can win, which we certainly will dc
if the trend of the party at present is
followed; then Mr.. Blaine may perhaps
have the nomination rendered him on 8
silver waiter; and being in power, with
the lesson we learned, we have may be
able to reward him for allowing us tc
win this time, by elevating him to the
goal of his ambition.

him pardon, if the true state of the
case is brought to his knowledge, in the
proper manner. Besides being held
in durance vile without being-as we
belieye-guilty, Mcfarland has his
constitution SO undermined by lung
troubles that it is only question of a
short time, ere he will gain his freedom
by death; and in the name of common
humanity-as well as justice-he should
be pardoned. Ephemeral efforts have
been made toward bringing the matter
before the Goyenor, but new one is
on foot now, and we sincerely wish
it speedy and successful termina-
ton.
We were particular pleased with
Warden Stordock, he appears to be the
very soul of honesty, and to possess
executive ability of the rarest kind; as
evidenced by the excellent manner
in which the prison is conducted.
Governor McGill made wise selection
when he appointed him, and we cannot
see how the recent charges against him
could have ended otherwise then they
did, OF the prisons we have visited in
the several states, we have seen none
more ably Differed and conducted, and
we unhesitatingly say, Warden stor-
dock is the right man in the right
place.
