A Joke of the Season.

Street fakirs have been reaping
rich harvest lately from the sale of lit
tie glass walls like those used to hold
homeopathic pellets. The vials cost
at wholesale fraction of cent apiece.
and the fakirs have been retailing them
for cents each. Their value as IA
street hawker's novelty consists in the
fact that remarkably funny practical
joke can be played with them.
Each of the little bottles now being
sold in the streets has small hole
drilled or blown in the bottom. When
filled with water aud corked tightly
the vial will apparently be perfectly
sound. The water will not escape
from the little hole in the bottom of
the vial until the cork is Withdrawn
from the other end. As soon rs the
cork is pulled out. however. the water
will run out of the little hole.
The joke consists in Offering n filled
and corked bottle to the chosen victim
with the question, Can YOU tell me
what that perfume is in that bottle?"
At first the victim attempts TO smell it
through the cork. Failing TO perceive
any odor in this way, he naturally
withdraws The cork, and the chances
are about twenty to one that the con-
tents of the bottle trickle down his
coat sleeve and wet his arm to the
elbow, Then the perpetrator of the
joke laughs liendishlv. and the victim
says: "By jove, that is the best thing
I've seen yet; where can / get one?"
The trick is an old one. but it has
probably never been sold before. The
way it was played about twenty years
ago was this: A whisky flask was used
with "A small hole in the bottom. IL
was filed with water and corked and
given to the victim with the remarks:
Il will show YOU the most wonderful
trick YOU ever saw. Put that flask in
your hip pocket and will stand six
feet from You with tumbler in my
hand, and without going near you or
touching YOU in any way will draw
the water from the flask and fill the
tumbler with it, The Joker would
then take the tumhlcr in his right hand
and stand as he had said. Now pull
out the cork and I'll draw the water
from the flask" he would say. The
consequences TO the victim were OF n
decidedly unpleasant nature. The
trick in its modified form is not quite
so funny. but it is more good natured.

John Smiths Luck.

1t is generally known that in 1914
the Capt. John Smith of Pocahontas
fame made trip to what is now known
rs Gardiner Me-, but there was an
| incident that occurred during that visit
that is known by very few people. The
Cabassas were presided over by a chief
having headquarters At what is now
Gardiner, known as Cabassa, who had
daughter named Schools. famed
among her tribe for her beauty and
grace. She was unfortunately smitten
at once with gallant Captain. who
was by the way. the first white man
TO visit these parts, and who was re-
ceived with great cordiality. Smith
had with him Lieutenant named
Hunt. who was of rather quarrel
some disposition and prone to mutiny.
When the time came for the party of
whites TO depart Hunts mutinous
spirit showed itself. AMI with a small
party of followers he left Smith. going
in an opposite direction. His party
took with them rs captiyes several of
the tribe of Cabassas.
The chief. considering the whites
one party. by great mistake followed
Capt. Sluiln 10y W ouHu' winch
camped that night about four miles
from the present location of Gardiner,
in an easterly direction. Schools,
thinking to warn the Captain. hurried
on before the party of enraged lndi-
ans. but arrived too late. for as she
arrived at the camp the first yolley Of
arrows was delivered.
Thinking To save Smith. she fled TO
him, threw her arms about his neck,
aud in that position received an arrow
in the breast that caused instant death.
The chief was palsied ut the accident.
and ordered hostililies to be ceased.
This allowed Smith an opportunity TO
explain that il was the other party that
had perpetrated the Kidnapping.
After sorrowful return and the
burial of Schools near the Randolph
Church. the party Of red men went In
search of Hunt. He was overtaken
near Norridgwock, and his band exter-
minated to man. Capt. Smith had
the martyred Schools to thank for his
life, for the arrow that reached her
heart was meant for him. The grave
of Schools is unmarked; in fact its ex-
act location is uuknown.-Let0iston

Nav Jersey DISAPPEARING.
The Coast Line Recedlng n Rod or More
Every Year.

IL Is no news to the residents along
the New Jersey coast. who have seen
the strong efforts to maintain sea
wall at Sea Isle City and the board
walk at Atlantic City and to preserve
the bluffs at Long Branch. that the sea
is making constant inroads on the
coast and is gradually washing away
the eastern front of the state. says the
Philadelphia Inquirer, but they may
not be aware that the process is
systematic, continuous. and likely TO
be productive of serious results in the
near future. Already the courts have
been called upon to decide claims in
equity arising out of the sale of sea-
shore lands said. on the faith of old
surveys, to contain so many acres, but
found on remeasurement to have lost
acres by the encroachment of the sea
and the unprecedented high tides of
the last year have shown how the
whole coast line is gradually sub
merged.
Prof. w. j. MCGEE, writing in the
Forum, quotes the estimate of the New
Jersey state geologist, that the coast is
sinking ut the rate of two feet, perpen-
dicularly. per century, which he thinks
an exceedingly conservative estimate,
and shows that ut this rate leach CEN
tury's sinking would give third of a
mile, and each year a rod of lOwland
10 the ocean" This, however, he
says, "would appear to be below tho
rate OF epcroachment indicated by
comparison OF maps" III this is true,
aud nobody can study the evidence
presented without being convinced
that it is. the existence of the chain OF
summer cities strung along in front Of
the great tidewater Jersey meadows is
bound to be ephemeral.
Few of the towns below Point Pleas
ant stand two feet above mean high
tide. A change of so much in the
elevation of the land would flood their
streets and make them modern Venices;
while the meadows between them and
the main land, three miles wide ut At
! lantic City. would be converted into
lagoons, which for years would be a
little too deep to wade and little too
shallow to navigate; and even in those
places where the elevation is unusual
/ " high the washing of the waves on
the sandy soil must soon render the
| foundations of houses unstable aud the
| houses themselves insecure.
The worst of it is that there seems
to be no way to arrest either the sink
1 ing or its destructive effects. No
means have ever proved cliicacous to
withstand the storms of the open ocean
in its most furious moods. The stro r.
est timber sheathng is a mere play
thing for the waves, piling is quickly
washed out. and there are many in
stances on record in which the finest
granite structures have been wrecked
by storms. which tossed about huge
blocks weighing several tons as if they
were chips.
1t is we'll, therefore. for builders
along the coast to remember that they
are building for the present only and
not for posterity. Their children will
sail over the spots where their houses
now stand and catch weakfish in the
streets of their towns. There may
even come time when there will be
no longer II New Jersey and Puladel-
phia will be II seacOast city. but that
time is too remote to talk about now.

The Pot Cure.
Life.

Russian peasants have a peculiar
cure for collie; it is called the pot cure.
and in its nature it is hideous ampli.
fication of the operation of cupping.
The patient is stretched on a bench
and his abdomen is washed with hot
water and then covered with soap-suds.
While this is being done thin slices OF
birch bark are set on fire aud put into
an empty pot. When the vessel he
comes SO hot that it can hardly be
touched with the bare hand. the burn
ing bark is quickly thrown out and the
pot placed mouth downward on the
abdomen of the patient. One woman
holds the vessel steady. while another
one kneads the body of the sufferer, 50

cmptied OF air by the burning bark.
An old peasant on whom such an OBJ.

that he would not submit to 1t again.

he would rather endure them than thu

We've heard Of a woman
who said she'd walk five miles
to get a bottle of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription if she
couldn't get it without. That
won an had tried it. And it's
a medicine which makes itself
felt in toning up the system
ard correcting irregularities as
soon as its use is begun.
Go to your drug store, pay
a dollar, get a bottle and try
try a second, a third if
necessary. Before the third
ones been taken you'll know
that there's a remedy to help
you. Then you'll keep on
and a cure II come.
But if you shouldn't feel the
help, should be disappointed
in the results you'll find a
guarantee printed on the bot

money back for you.
