Moor Baths.

The moor baths, of which much is
now heard, and which are provided at
many Austrian and German health re-
sorts, were first used at Franzensbad. In
1928 DR.. Poschmann, a physician there,
believed that he had found in them a
new curative medium, and they have
since become popular. Some physicians
still question their efficacy, while others
in Austria and Germany rely upon them
to render good service in many maladies.
Though the bath is composed Of peat or
moor earth to which enough water has
been added to make thick paste of the
mass, yet the peat is different from that
which is extracted from bog in Ireland
or Scotland.
In both Ireland and Scotland the peat
is used as fuel; at Franzensbad the min
eralized peat will not serve such pur-
pose. The bog from which it is extract
ed has been saturated throughout count
less ages with mineral water, and the
product is strong chemical compound.
Thus moor bath is mineral bath in a
concentrated form, and effects are pro-
duced upon the system by taking q

Common Sense About tho Cigarette.

A tobacco dealer says: There has been
q great deal said about the harmfulness
of cigarettes, and certainly they are in
furious to young boys or to men if
smoked in excess; but most of those who
attack the cigarette habit have very lit
tie idea of what they are talking about.
1t should be remembered that the great
est smokers in the world--the Spaniards,
the Cubans, Spanish-Americans and the
Russians--use cigarettes far more freely
than cigars, and none of these nations
can be called unhealthy. People talk
about the righteousness Of the paper, but
any physician will tell you that it has no
effect worth mentioning.

light 1t scarcely, any residuum will re-

Chenn Fuel.

Among the latest attempted solutions
Of the cheap fuel problem is the method
of German inventor, who proposes to
manufacture gas by dropping stream
of crude petroleum through a blast of
cold air from force pump. The gas
thus obtained will be confined in regu-
lar cylinder open at one end, where it
will be lighted. This produces an in
tensely hot flame of several feet in
length. By means of this flame the in
ventor proposes to heat boilers, and he
maintains that the heating of large
blocks can thus be reduced very consid-
erahlY.-NeW York Telegram.

main, and man might smoke that pa
per indefinitely without experiencing the
smallest bad result. What makes cigar
cite smoking injurious is the fact that
the smoke is not retained in the mouth
and throat, but is taken into the lungs.
1t is because the cigar smoker does not
understand this that he denounces Gig.
arctic smoking as insipid. So it is if the
cigarette is smoked like a cigar, but
when the smoke is swallowed the effect
is far moro delicate than can be obtained
from any cigar, and you will find that a
confirmed cigarette smoker seldom en-
joys either cigar or a pipe.-St Louis

How Old Spiders Live.

Old spiders, which have neither web
nor the materials to make one, often
hunt about to find out the webs of other
spiders, younger and weaker than them
selves, with whom they venture battle.
The invader generally succeeds, and the
younger spider is driven out to make a
new web, and the old spider remains
in possession until a stronger spider in
vades the web and drives it out. When
thus dispossessed the spider seldom ven
lures another attack, but tries to subsist
upon the few insects that may fall acct
dentally into its clutches, and eventually
dies of hunger. Standard.

ON THE BEACH.
leet Atalauta, skimming the gray sands,

Fleet Atalanta, skimming the gray sands,
As runs the hurrying beach bird, airy light,
With radiant eyes and floating locks, and hands
outstretched, and futtering garments snowy
whitel
May never golden apple roll between
Thee and thy victoryl Keep steadfast on,
Reach thy far goal aud so be crowned a queen.
Thy race accomplished and thy triumph won.
Before thy feet the world is sure to cast
Its gilded fruit: DO faithful to the last,
And run thy race with Time, outstrip thy friends
Not for ambition, empty feverish, vain,
But shape thou thy life's course to nobler ends:
Strive to be foremost pure heart to gain
To win forbearance and sweet charity,
Truth, patience, faith, a conscience crystal
clear
For these press on, nor pause, and thou shalt be
Lifted into peace that knows no fear.
And thy sweet childhood's bliss be thine Away,
As on the breezy sands this summer day.

as well. They cannot unlimber their
shooting irons any quicker than New

many of them.-New York Sun.

1t is a mistake to suppose that the

on some species of forest trees are due to
insects, fungus, or accident, or are in
any way unnatural growths. They de-

disease of the tree. nor of such condi-

Mind Reading.

The feats of mind reading performed
by the late Irving Bishop were wonder
full and savored good deal of the super
natural, though he always claimed there
was nothing mysterious about it. John.
son. the phenomenal product of the
northwest, has given some wonderful
exhibitions, though skeptics have not
been wanting who denounced him as q
palpable fraud. There is another kind
OF mind-reading not so difficult as that
attempted by Bishop and Johnston
to read the mind of the public on sub
ject ofgreat interest. During the past five
weary, THE Burlington has carried to
all parts OF the country thousands and
thousands of the bright people of the
northwest, andif you ask any one what
he thinks of that line you can, before he
speaks, read his mind on that question
by noting how pleasant recollections of
speed, comfort and safety cause his face
to light up and a smile to break forth.
