for sack and piece of sail cloth.
These having been provided Inc chief
juggler made snail, tent-lil,- stuc-

then placed his assistant in the sack and
allowed sailor to tic the knot which

chief carried the sack into an open space,
warning the people to stand back
some distance and then carried on an
animated conversation with his assist

heard coming from the sack. Sudden

the sack and dumped it overheard,
where, to the horror of the passengers
and crew, it sank out of sight.
Immediately the captain rushed for

full belief that he had murdered his
companion, but the ijuggier only smiled,
and pointing TO the canvas, asked that
it be raised. This was done, and the sup

A Glass ROlling.PIn.

The housewife who delights in tender,
daky pastry will hail with JOY the advent
of the glass rolling.pin. 1t is an ideal
adjunct to the piemakin9 outfit, not even
yielding first place to the marble slab,
which has been adopted by the house
keeper whokeeps abreast of the time, in
lieu of the old. fashioned wooden mold
ing board. By simply u~nscrewing the
handle of the glass rolling pin the re-
volving cylinder may be kept filled with
cracked ice, thereby insuring the re-
duced temperature necessary for making
puff paste or good pie crust of any kind.
1t may be a consolation also to the heart
Of the good housewife that the new roll
ling.pin-so easily kept sweet aud clean
and so desirable in every way-costs less
than half a dollar and may be obtained in
the house furnishing department of any
of the big stores. Chicago Herald.

Bleaching by Electricity.

A method of electrolytic bleaching re-
Gently introduced in Germany differs
from others in that the textile or other
materials to be bleached is passed be-
tween rolls serving as anode and cathode
respectively, the electrolyte being used
for tho purpose of saturating the fabric
itself. Thus several pairs of rollers may
be used, the anode and cathode being
alternately the upper, so that both sides
of the stuff are subjected to the action
of the products of electrolysis. Boston

A SUICIDE CLUB.

The principal suicide club in this
country came into existence in Connect
icut, but California has it's suicides,
A talk with a well informed gen.
tleman, the ephysician-in-chief of the Cos
mopolitan Dispensary, corner of Stock
ton, Ellis and Market streets, San Fran
cisco, shows that suicides are frequently
caused by catarrh.
We have specialist who devotes his
time to catarrh exclusively, he said.
Is 1T such serious disease?"
Bronchial catarrh is much more SER
iouS than many imagine When catarrh
has existed in the head and upper part
OF the throat for any length Of time it
extends slowly down the windpipe and
thus into the bronchial tubes. The swell
ing and accumulated mucus in the bron-
chial tubes produce bad cough. The
latter is not SO bad in warm weather.
At first there is raised little blush,
tough, tenacious mucus, which grad
ually increases in quantity and as
sumes a yellowish color, with such
violent cough as to frequently
cause vomiting. The mucus raised
conteins small particles of yellowish
matter, sometimes of cheesy consist
ency, which, when pressed between the
fingers, emit a bad odor. When this
disease is not controlled or cured by
scientific treatment the lung substance
itself undergoes changes, and we have
developed that worst of all diseases-con
sumption.
The Chicago Herald is authority for the
statement that the Cosmopolitan Dispen
sary is only exceeded by the huge dis
pensaries of Berlin and London, and as
to he beneficial results of their method
of treatment the patients themselves are
the best authorities.
The first one seen was Mr.. A. M. Mar
tin, who is a coppersmith in the employ
of Spreckels Brothers, with whom he
has been for fifteen years.
Yes. sir, am a patient at the Cos
mopolitan Dispensary. he said. "and
