Aunty Clark has a great big house

school.

An Australian missionary tells the
following story against himself; when
asked the word for sin they gave me
one for thin, and SO was led into rep
resenting that it was hateful TO God for
man 70 be thin; and that they would be
condemned for 1t. So they came to the
conclusion that it was pleasing TO God
for people to be fat In fact, had
been telling them that all lean people
went TO hell and fat people TO Heaven"

Drawn and Braini

bTHWu ulu DFalnl
The powerful engine, with its wonder
ful propelling power, coupled to lifelong
train full freiehted with the richest fab
RIGS of the intellectual looms of the cen
turies-what obstacles can stay the prog
ress of this mighty force, when once un-
der full steam along life's highway?
The American with Drawn and brain
does not see the necessity for titles of
nobility, does not care for elevation by
descent, he can reach out and pluck the
stars.
But with Drawn or brain impaired, a
man is badly handicapped in the mad
race for success which is the marked
characteristics Of the present age.
The physical system is a most intricate
piece of machinery. 1t ought to be kept
well regulated, so that it will work har-
moniously in MI its parts. then it is capa-
BILE of an immense amount of work.
1t is said that a watch, if expected to
keep perfect time, must he wound daily.
1t will not keep good time unless it
runs regular" More men break down
because they don't 'run regular than
for any other reason.
1t is claimed by physicians that few
men are killed by hard work. 1t is TO
the irregularities Of modern social life
that the high death rate is due. Men
burn their candle at both ends, then
wonder why it burns ont so quickly.
The main thing in keeping the human
machine in good working order is to
keep the regulator all right. "rhe
blood is the life" and sound health is
assured so long as the blood flows
through the veins a limpid stream of
purity.
Regulate the regulator with Warmers
Log Cabin sarsaparilla, the old-fasl-
toned blood purifier, prepared after the
best formula i'll use by our ancestors in
good old Log Cabin days, and with the
vigor of Drawn and brain which must
ensue, in your life's lexicon you will
find no such word as fail.

Losing II. Rncinl Marks.

The colored race is changing in APP
pearance and losing some of the birth
marks peculiar to it. The new genera
tion is showing the effects of a higher
culture. Especially is this noticeable i'll
the towns, where contact with the whites
shows it's effect. The flat nosed, kinky-
headed negro is passing away and be-
coming an unknown race. All the col
ored children, no matter how dusby i'll
hue, show the change. Longer hair,
aqueline noses and smaller mouths, with
thinner bps, are the rule.

Mr.. Edwards has lived in Ithaca
twenty years, and rents the south end

smilingly said that he was.

pocket a draft on New York which was
as good as gold, the face value being

IL Hoe Mt Sell We'll.

An eastern woman is selling a queer
concoction which she has labeled "Lov-
ers' Ink" It's peculiar property is that
it remains legible only twelve hours, af-
ter which time it fades entirely. 1t is
hardly necessary to add that this partic-
ular woman is not making a fortune in
a day. The eastern girls quantity ask
each other what they could prove in a
breach of promise suit with letters which
could not be read, and then they pass
sc%ornfully by the fakir and order enough
of the old style fluid to do for them

At the last meeting of the South
Haven and Casco Pathological society,
the following experiences and advice
were given: The yellows in peach or
chards were on the decrease. Water
standing in the orchard will iniure the
trees in tw%enty-four hours and is n cause
of yellows. Removing the affected
trees is II remedy. The trouble is that
some growers are too stubborn to re-
move the affected trees and others are
too careless. When only one side of
the tree was affected one grower removed
the limbs on that side and let the other
side perfect its fruit. One man said
that he had known of cases when one
affected tree wa taken out the others
would not become diseased. The opin-
ion was advanced that q perfectly
healthy tree would resist the yellows.
In one section where the yellows APP
peared and all the orchards were de-
stroyed and have since been %replanted,
no yellows now exist. The reports gen
orally were to the effect that the disease
was pot increasing.-Western Rural.

Sound and Color Sensations.

The phenomenon of color addition was
first brought to the attention Of the sci
enti6c world by Dr.. Nussbaumer, of vi
emma, who, when a child, was engaged
with his brother one day in striking q
fork against o glass to hear the ring,
when he discovered that he saw colors at
the same time that he perceived the
sound; and SO well did he perceive the
color, that, when he stopped his ears, he
could divine by it how loud sound the
fork had produced. Dr.. Nussbauner was
afterward able to add to his own observa-
tons nearly identical ones made by q
medical student in Zurich. Later On, II.
Pedrono, en ophthalmologist Of Nantes,
observed the same peculiarities in friend.
In these cases musical sounds gave sensa-
tions varying the color according to the
instrument played upon, thus showing
the dependence Of the phenomenon upon
the timbre. For instance. the saxophone
gave yellow sensations; the clsrionef, red;
The plano, blue. Henri de PaYville, In
Popular Science Monthly, says: Popular
expressions are often significant. tsaw

such expression, may frequently Be heard
from persons who have received violent
blows on the head or face. Under the In
fuence of shocks Of this kind, the eve
seems to see Infinite numbers of sparks.
Shocks of certain class impressed upon
the nervous system seem to hsv. the fac
ulty of producing phenomana Of light.
There are persons endowed with such
sensibility tina. they cannot hear q sound
without at the same time peroeiving
colors. Each sound to them has iss pecu-
liar color: this word corresponds with red,
and that one with green; one note Is blue,
s1d another Is yvlow.-Science.

Astronomers claim that they know
Mars has aqueous vapor in its atmos-
phere, but they do not know which part
of its surface forms this by evaporation.
Their theories follow their observations
rapidly, and very few theories come to be
substantiated. From the days when Dr..
Dick wrote, and suggested plans of open
ing communications with the supposed
inhabitants of the moon to the present,
the widest ideas have constantly at
tended the steady, practical investigation
OF astronomers. Yet the astronomer plods
on with the instrument maker, and each
century adds its results to those Of what
has been attained before. and though
many wild theories attend each discovery
the discovery Itself remains while most
of tie theories die.
However, there is some reason for in
ferring that Mars Is composed of land

Excursion Rates to the Ohio Centennial Exposi

The Centennial Exposition of the Ohio
Valley, to be held at Cincinnati July 4th to
October 9th, with the exception of the
National Centennial will be the largest
ever held in the United States.
Low Excursion Rates will be made by
lines entering Cincinnati and their connec-
tons. From St. Louis and the West the
Ohio & Mississippi R'y is the only direct
through car route. By this line those who
attend the G. A r. National Encampment
at Columbus, Ohio, for which very low
rates will be made and those going farther
east to the different summer resorts can
stop over at Cincinnati and visit the Expo
sition.
The o. & NJ is the only through line, via
Cincinnati, by which this can be done.
