Extending Their Business.
One of the best and most reliable drug
stores in the city is that of E. Hewitt &
Co. This enterprising and we'll known
firm has recently secured as an addition to
their premises the store on State street
formerly occupied by G. Whittlesey & Co.
and which connects in the rear with the
firms present store, 744 Chapel. They
have just added extensively to their al
ready large and complete stock of drugs,
chemicals and patent medicines of all
kinds and now have facilities for catering
to the wants of the public second to none
in the state. The reliability of this firm in
their prescription department is we'll
known, and it will in the future be kept
fully up to the high standard maintained
in the past. Hewitt & Co. are also the
local agents of the Huyler's candies and
the largest depot in the city for mineral
and medicinal waters of all kinds.

The Reign of the Turquoise.

The decree of the leaders of fashion and
the fact that the Princess of Wales wore
turquoise jewelry at the splendid garden
party at Marlborough House last summer,
intimates a revival of the old-time popular
ity of that pretty gem or mineral as one
chooses to call it. Again, perhaps the
prevalence of epidemics may have suggested
the wearing of stone, which in ancient
times was considered q certain preventive
against contagion of all kinds, to say moth
ing of its ability to strengthen the sight
and spirits The best specimens of tur-
quoise are found in Persia, Thibet,
China, Arabia and one or two
other parts of the world. There
is also a very excellent artificial tur-
quoise, in fact, the imitation is so perfect
that an expert is required to tell one from
the other, but it is not likely it will take
the place of the other, as it is made from the
teeth of the mastodon, colored with copper.
AS the molars of the prehistoric animal
named are really as rare and valuable as the
precious stone itself, the value of the artif-
cial gem is nearly, if not quite, as great as
the bona ide. Another fairly good imita-
tion is made in porcelain. WLKIE.

A Fine Place to Fight.

They are still harping on Pamir. Russia
growls ominously at England on account of
the latter's interference, and the British
ers, alive to the fact that the Russians are
up to something" are clamoring for q
check on the northern invaders ere they
usurp a goodly slice of Chinese soil. And
they do say that, If there are TO be any war
like operations in this matter, they will
more than likely take place on the 'Roof of
the World"-Pamir.
IF this be true, may Heaven have pity on
the soldiery of both countries. The hor-
rible fatalities of the first Napoleon's
arr1v on the retreat from Moscow will no
doubt be repeated, only under different
conditions and new horror What other
result can be expected from campaign

Titles of the Worlds Rulers.

Often enough we hear through the news
journals of the Sublime Porte" How
many ask the meaning of the term9 In an
cient times, and especially in oriental coun-
tries, it was the custom to make the gates of
the cities and kings palaces places of as
sembly, where the affairs of government
were to be discussed In time the term was
transferred to the government that exer-
cised authority, the ruler of Turkey, for in
stance, being called the 'Ottoman Porte, ="
which has been gradually changed among
European nations to Sublime Porte" Lofty
Gate), the rendering of the expression by
the French in their language, which is the
official tongue of European diplomacy.
The Sublime Porte" is not the official
title of the Sultan. Inordinate vanity has
caused him to adopt it to himself, in the
same spirit that prompts the monarchs of
Germany, Russia, Austria and England to
call them emperors and empreses; titles
which they have no more right to bear than
Xerxes, the ambitious Persian of antiquity
to term himself 'fKing of kings and
finally, when his conceit had reached the
limit, ''the supporter of the world.
1t is an amusing experience to run down
the worlds rulers and note tn ridiculous
titles applied to men and women, who
ought to realize that their piled up "nick-
names" really lowers them in the estima-
tion of intelligent people. Victoria of Eng
land is the defender of the faith," the
Mikado (Royal Gate) of Japan is known at
home as ''Ten-o" (Heavens Highest) the
ruler of Siam is ''the Lord of the White
Elephant" and the King of China, is
Brother to the Sun and Moon" etc., etc.
There is almost an endless list of titles and
of individuals who have adopted them; any
good encyclopedia viii give them all, but,
space will not permit recapitulstion here.

The Color of a War Vessel.

The French war vessels of the feet that
visited England recently rather surprised
the people of the latter country by stealing
close in shore before they were sighted.
Immediately the matter was made the
theme of considerable discussion, it being
discovered that the French method of paint
iug the vessels peculiar blue-gray hue has
had the effect of rendering them practically
Invisible under certain conditions, especial
" those existing in foggy or thick weather.
In fact, it is claimed that in any sort of
Weather the black painted ships can be
sighted at far greater distance than those
vessels covered with the peculiar color
adopted by the Frenchmen. As the United
States is trying to create navy of her own,
and desires that navy to be the most perfect
in the world, would it not be good idea to
investigate the new ''color effect" of the
French mariners; adopting it if found to be
an exceptionally good thing.

''Not at all aristocratic," he said. "Just

is all, and ifyou could see how little style
they put on, and how much fun they have

M. Pullman and Marshall Field being fish

a story of luxurious sporting with the 6nny
tribe which will read like an unreal story to
the bulk of humanity.
PEIEE IS A CANADIAN ISLAND.
There is group of five Canadian islands
toward the northern shore of Lake Erie, and
Pelee, with its II, 900 acres of fertile lands,
is the largest. 1t is a curious patch in the
water, and peopled by that strange Canadian
population which is more than half mys-
tery in its customs and manners to the aver
age American. Many of them live by fish
ing, and others till the soil; but they are
quaint, shiftless sort Of humanity that seem
never to have felt the touch of American
spirit.
Point Sheridan is queer little jut into
the lake, which shoots out of the m ainland
of this big speck in the water. It seems so
singular to be writing about neck Of soil
named Sheridan on a Canadian island. But
it is properly named, for as I said, General
Sheridan was one of the founders of the
strange and wonderful institution of which
am speaking, and this was his pet place
for recreation. Millionaires from New
York and Chicago are here now in the
party which are fishing from the LIST to the
18th of October But there is not so much
interest in the mere act of taking the gamest
and most intelligent fish that runs, but in
