Skate Patents Nearly Out.

Men who still consider themselves quite
young and frisky remember that in their
boyhood days there were no skates without
straps and few without wooden footpieces.
In their days there were but three kinds of
skates-high Dutch, which had the runner
brought up in front into big curl; low
Dutch, whose curl barely came up above the
wood Of the footpiece, and rocker dumps,
which sheered at both ends, and were the
hardest of all to skate on. Then, too, most
skates had cutters in their runners.
In those days cheap skate could be had
for fifty cents, but some Of the high Dutch
sold for S. to SO pair. Then came the era
of patent clamped and extension skates,
which were either screwed to the sole and
working On the cam principle. These skates
were q vast improvement on the old style in
comfort, as they did not impede the circula-
ton Of blood in the feet as strap bound
skates did, nor did they require wood to be
carried by the cord to tighten them. They
were costly, though, and the best Of them
were equal in price TO the finest of the old
style, and the cheapest sold for 50 and So
pair Now several of the patents have e1-
pired, and, as a consequence, the hardware
stores are selling what may be called cheap
edition of 4 once high priced patent skate for
sixty cents a pair. All the leading skate
patents expire in year or two, and then
there will be great decline in their prices,

DETROIT, Mich, March IA most deter
mined case of suicide, in which was dis

sien merchant Of Ridgetown, Ont, who
had been in Windsor for the past three
months on a prolonged spree, walked
down to the edge of the Grand Trunk
railroad, and in plain sight of ferry
boad load of passengers, jumped into the
river. A half dozen people rushed 20 his
assistance and pushed a plank to him. He
seized the end of the plank and held on a
moment while a man slid down the board
and passed a rope over his shoulders The
man climbed back, and Marlatt holding
the plank with one hand with the other
threw the rope off his shoulders. Then he
waved one hand to the crowd and, letting
go the plank, threw his arms up and dis
appeared beneath the surface. The body
was secured short time after. Marlatt
had Saturday given a friend worthless

MOXA CONES IN JAPAN.
A Trying Surgical Operation-Physical
Agony of the Patients-A Cure All.

Ol
All We're stripped to the waist, and the old
priest made marks on their backs in sacred
characters to Indicate where the moxa should
be burned. Following him came small boy
with lump of what appeared to be very
sticky dough in one hand With dexterous
fingers this youngster pinched off a bit OF
dough, rolled it into a small cone and stuck it
over the priests mark. After him came q
staid, stoicaI youngster, who in the most cold
blooded way touched match to the tip of
the moxa cone and went down the lines Civ
ing lights 1t burned without flame, q slow
red glow like charcoal consuming the cone
down to the flesh, where it sizzled and smoked
for few seconds, that must have seemed
years to the victims. Soaring with red hot
iron would be quick and humane treatment
compared to this slow eating fire Of the
moXa.
The men and women that watched for
the few minutes that l could endure it,
stood it heroically, but by the tension of
every muscle in their backs and arms one
could judge of their agony. One old man
folded his arms, bent his head over and in
dulged in suppressed chuckles that varied
with groans and hysterical ha! ha! has! A
woman buried her face in blue cotton
towel and made no sign or movement, while
two moxa cones were burning down and
into her flesh. A young man started to rock
to and fro when the fire began entering into
his very bones, but soon stopped it, braceG
himself and sat motionless. The priest hav-
ing set his seal on his victims, sat down by
brazier, put on his big spectacles and was
soon lost in reading pious book, wholly in
different to the row Of backs frizzling beside
him.
This Mine priest has some secret of compo-
sition for his moxa dough that has kept it in
favor for many years, and about the only
revenue of the temple is from his patients
fees. For rheumatism, nmbago and such
aches and ills, it is most beneficial, and gives
quick relief to any one heroic enough to en-
dure it. The japanese resort to moxa for
almost everything that ails them, and one
sees coolies with their backs and the calves
