Bradycrotine cured Headaches for Darius
Waterhouse, of Chattanooga, Tenn.



She unfolded the newspaper very delib-
erately and patted it out fat in a thor
ouehly feminine way. The two newspaper
men in the seat behind were interested in
her for two reasons-she was pretty and
she was reading, or about to read, the
paper to which they were attached She
was looking over the first page when the
city editor whispered to his companion,
Wonder what she'll read first"
Society gossip, perhaps, " was the others
reply.
She was evidently looking for something
particular, for after glancing hurriedly
over the first page she turned it over and
ran her eye down the second. She didn't
find what she wantr6 and she said to the
man beside her, Il Can't find it, but know
it's here"
Newspaper men are only human, and
. their curiosity was aroused. They watched
the hunt for ''it' with great interest. She
had reached the fourth page this time and
had paused for a moment
"She's after poem or an editorial" said
the city editor, thoroughly disgusted.
But she wasn't for she turned the paper
clean over and began barking back from
the eighth page. Whatever she sought
was not on the eighth page; it was not
among the markets on the seventh, or the
baseball and sporting on the sixth. The
interested spectators in the rear grew eX-
cited. AS she reached the seventh page
she gave little scream and exclaimed as
she put gloved finger on the paper:

Agriculture in Ancient China.

In 100 b. c. the prime minister Of the
Emperor Wou-Weng, Tcheou-Kung, con
structed norias, or hydraulic machines OF
simple design and working, by which
water was raised to a height to which it
had never been carried before, and made
reservoirs and canals for irrigation. Water
was conducted by means of machinery
from the wells to the dry hill tops, and
water provision was assured for times OF
drought. Agriculture, in consequence.

Other measures of Tcheou-Kung com
prised the PRONUNCIATION of laws respecting
the boundaries of properties and the preven-
ton of trespasses. The fields were divided
into squares called wells, from their re-
semblance TO the Chinese character signi-
flying well, surrounded and furrowed by
bitches so arranged that eight farmers,
each tilling his own tract, united in culti-
waiting the ninth, interior tract, which be-
longsd to the state, and the produce of
which paid their rent.
The system succeeded to a marvel Each

acres, the whole product Of which be

COSTUMES FOR YOUNG GIRLS.
Dress Them in White If You Want t.
Make Them Doubly Attractive.

Dress Them in White IL You Want to
Make Them Doubly Attractive.
'White is for brides" runs that very
plaintive song concerning the woes OF
''Miss July Anne Jo," and it's also the
thing for girl to wear during her baby
hood and childhood, and all along through
those intervening years when school claims
her attention, and she is net ready yet for
the glory of her white tulle debut frock.
always dress young girl in white" says
a dressmaker. Here is an entire costume
in which girl, whether she be pretty or
ugly, short or tall, is sure to look more
fresh and girlish than in any color know
Of"
1t was cashmere flannel of a warm cream
white that brings out che faintest tint OF
peachy pink cheeks and shiny lights in
youthful tresses. The skirt was laid in
fan box plaits, narrow and fiat at the
waist, and widening and standing slightly
out at the hem, that just reached the ankles
Though the waist fitted snugly all stiff,
straight lines were relieved by having the
front laid from the shoulders down across
the bust in soft plaits, folding kerchiCt
wise over tiny white surah vest.
similar folds trimmed the back, drawing
to narrow point at the waist, where full
flannel sash, finished in knotted silk fringe,
was fastened in double bow over the
waist tails and fell in draperies to the heels.
Leg o. mutton sleeves and high collar
gave this little frock dressy effect that
made it suitable for dinners at home, but
the wearer should arrange her locks in a
full braid to hang down her back, and with
black silk stockings and black buckle slip
pers she is as pretty and gracious figure
as her elder sisters in all the frills and fur
bellows of full toilet.
Now for study hour and for morning
gown ''my pretty maid" will wear white
basket flannel suit, made with gathered
skirt that must not be too full, and above
the bottom hem, not over an inch deep,
should run at least ten rows of very narrow
silk braid laid little over half an inch
apart. Blue gray is pretty color for the
braid; it does not fade or run if the dress is
washed. The waist should be loose one
gathered into belt that slips under the
skirt band, and in place of high collar
broad directoire plating of blue-gray china
silk forms soft finish about the throat.
Under this runs wide scarf of the silk
to knot under mademoiselle's pretty white
chin, so that long floating loops and ends
will half conceal the closely set, tiny bullet
pearl buttons up the front. Have the
sleeves very full to the elbow, where long
flannel cuff, trimmed with a turn back
plating Of silk, frames the round blue
veined wrist, and belt Of blue-gray rib
bon with long bow at the back will COM
plete this inexpensive costume.-New York

The Greatest Diving Feat.

The greatest diving feat ever achieved
was in moving the cargo of the ship Cape
Horn, wrecked off the coast of South
America, when a diver named Hooper
made seven descents TO depth of POI feet,
remaining at one time forty-two minutes
under the water. Siebe states that the
greatest depth to which a man has been
known to descend will not exceed 210 feet,
which would be equivalent to pressure of
eighty-eight and half pounds per square
inch.-St. Louis Republic
