When people find an article much
superior 10 any thing Of the kind they
have ever before used, they are almost
sure to tell their friends about it, and
especially If they know Of some friends
needing such an article. Dealers also
soon learn the true value Of their goods,
and when they have an article Of I'M
usual merit they will almost invariably
mention the fact to their customers.
This accounts in a great measure for
the large sale of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. Here is an instance: w. l..
Needham, a prominent citizen and
business man Of Orrsburg, Mo-, has
been selling Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for several years and recon-
mends 1t to his customers, because in
his experience 1t has proved to be the
best for colds, Group and whooping
cough. He says it is the most popular
medicine that he handles, and gives
the best satifaction. Fifty cent bottles

whats the use of fixing up the road?i'
said "pathmaster" in the country, who
had been reproaehed because he did not
cause the proper amount of work to be done
on the highway. when the track gets so
bad that we can't travel on it we can dodge
out and start another track. The road
ways wide enough"
The results of this practice were seen on
nearly all the highways thereabout. The
space, many rods wide, which lay between
the road fences was cut by a series of deep
ruts, each one representinga track in which
vehicles had gone in order to dodge" what
had once been supposed to be the established
roadway.
The original provision of very wide
roadway which had been intended in the in
terest of good roads had led to a result
quite different from that which was in
tended. Instead of one good broad road
way lined on either side with lawn there
was no true roadway at all.
So long as "A general level, grassy surface
enabled wagon travellers to dodge the
road when it was in bad condition they
lodged it, and as a result the track was
never in good condition.
If the roadway had been one-quarter as
wide necessity might have constrained the
people to take better care of it. A roadway
only sufficiently wide to allow two wagons
to meet and pass, but well kept, is GER
tainly worth more than road which is an
eighth of a mile wide, but scarcely passable
anywhere. Youth's Companion.

Gymnastics at Yale.

More attention is paid to gymnastics
at Yale since the erection of the new
gymnasium than ever before. Under
the system of practical gymnastics now
in use here two plans are offered-the in
dividual work and the class work. The
individual work may be described briefly
as follows: Every student who takes
gymnastic exercise is examined by Dr..
Seaver, the medical examiner of the uni
versity, who fills out for him card con-
tanning data as to his physical condition.
etc. This card is taken to DR.. w. G..
Anderson, or his brother. Mr.. H. S. An
derson. the gymnastic instructors, who
indicate thereon exercises suitable for
the individual.
The following list of special apparatus
is used: Intercostal machine, abdominal
mat. quarter circle. nautical wheel.
wrestling machine. neck harness. waist
machine, finger machine. machines for
legs and ankles. rowing machine, ropes,
ladders. rings. parallel bars and medi-
cine balls. Upon receiving the card the
man Is set to work to correct any phys
ical defect he may have and to strength
En- his weak points.
The system Of class work is new at
Yale and Is the result of careful study
of the Swedish and German methods.
All exercises are invariably given ac-
cording to a certain method. Leg exer-
cises are given first to draw the blood
from the brain, after which come mo-
tons for the neck, for the carriage of
the head. for the arms. for round shout
ders, for widening and deepening the
chest and for the muscles of the waist
and abdomen. Precipitant work is given
for strengthening the action of the
heart and lungs, together with slow leg
work and breathing exercises.-Cor.

A Novel Diving Bell.

Archibald Price, one of the pioheer
settlers of Kanawha valley. West Vir-
ginia, was making maple sugar in a
grove across the river from his house,
when he caught sight of three Indians
skulking in the vicinity. 1.-THE var
mintsr he said to himself. $50 they
mean to pounce on me when I've two
pals o. sap aboard"
He was just starting for some of the
more distant trees. OF course he changed
his purpose on the instant, but he was
quick witted enough to give no sign Of
the fact, and for few moments busted
himself about the boiling place, whistling
merrily.
If he set off across the river in his
canoe, the Indians would pursue and
shoot him. He had brother who was
sea diver. From him he had learned
something about diving bells, and he
now took a sudden resolve to make his
kettle serve him in that capacity. He
emptied it, but in such a way that an
observer at little distance would have
supposed he was filling it from tub
standing near.
AS soon as 1t was emptied he lifted it
quickly, and hurried down the river
bank, where he raised it, in an inverted
position, over his head, the rim resting
on his shoulders, and walked into the
water. The bank was steep, and the
water was soon up to his shoulders.
Keeping firm hold of the kettle, he
proceeded. The water got deeper and
deeper until it was several feet over the
top of the kettle.
The improvised diving bell answered
its purpose excellently, supplying air for
him to breathe until he emerged on the
home side of the river.
So Mr.. Price saved himself and his
iron kettle from falling into the hands
of the savages.-Y Companion.

Marriage Among the Wend..

A parlor talk recently on the Wends,
who, it seems, were originally Slavs, but
conquered 400 years ago by the Teutons
and therefore ancient dependents of Ger
many, reveals the fact that some curious
customs originated with these little known
folk. 1t was always leap year, in limited
principle, at least, with these people, for
the maids selected their husbands. Then
the mans mother took hand in the trans
action, declining or accepting, as she
thought best. If the marriage took place
the groom donned a green velvet jacket
with a heart embroidered in gold thread on
its sleeve; hence the expression to wear
ones heart on ones sleeve. At the end of
six months the young husband resumed
his usual garb. While he was thus pub
fishing abroad his joy his bride was IN
black over her sorrow at having left the
home roof
1t Is probable the Wends did not dis
cuss rs Marriage a Failurep" With the
husband willing TO proclaim his joyful
captivity to the world for half a year and
the wife approaching that to leave the
parent nest was a critical step, the matri-
monial conditions must have been of the
best.-Her Point Of View in New York
Times

A New Photographic Process,

An effective and greatly simplified
method of producing a Photographic
representation in the form of an intaglio
engraving, or, as it is generally called, a
"photogravure," is being introduced
The new method is intended to reduce
the time occupied in the process, which
usually takes many days to few hours,
and to dispense entirely with the supple
mentary aid of the skillful engraver
Its essential feature lies in the fact that
the picture, instead of being obtained
from graduated depth of the engraving,
is produced from a sunken surface Of
uniform depth, the gradations of light,
half tone and shade being effected by
minute lines and stipples of varying
thickness, but of uniform distance apart
from center to center.
The picture is made up Of equidistant
stipples, varying from a microscopic
point up to size where they coalesce in
a solid black, the half tones consisting of
stipples about 1-400th of an inch in di-
ameter. If coarse stipple is used the
effect varies from that of mezzotint and
approaches more nearly that of line Of
engraving. the light shades being made
up of perceptible lines and stipples, like
the effects of steel or copper plate en-
craving of equal texture. -Pittsburg

WHEN CRIME WAS A SERIOUS THING
Punishment Inflicted Upon the Lawless
in Ancient Pennsylvania.

The unhappy people who are being sent
TO Jail or have costs to pay at edia this
week can thank their stars t.; they did
not live in the early days of the colony of
Pennsylvania.
| The assembly that convened at Chester
Dec T. 1889, enacted a code of laws that
made the people of the new colony live up
to the mark, and while many of the several
penalties of the Duke of York's code were
softened yet the unfortunate deemed them
harsh enough. The man or woman who
used profane language was punished by fine
or imprisonment, and more than one per
son had reason for regret for expressing
their feelings in public with too much en-
phasis.
The severest punishment was melted out
for licentious conduct. A public whipping
and one years imprisonment was the pen
atty for the graver degrees of this crime,
while second offense was punishable by
imprisonment for life This law was
amended in 1905 the first offense being pun
ishable by the infliction of twenty-one
lashes and imprisonment for one year or a
fine of fifty pounds. A second conviction
subjected the culprit to seven years impris-
onment and the letter "A" was branded on
his forehead.
The man that had more than one wife,
instead of being an object of commisera-
ton, was liable to be sent to Jail for life,
while the man who broke into a house and
stole was sent TO Jail for four months He
had to work like beaver, however and
unless he restored fourfold to the party the
court sent him up for seven years to give
him time for reflection.
Murder was punished with death and the
forfeiture of half the estate of the felon.
Theft was punished with public whipping
and various terms of imprisonment, while
restitution had to be made from three to
fourfold.
The minor regulations prohibited all per
sons from taking part in stage plays, revels,
Mosques and kindred worldly pursuits, sc
that any troupe that had Glanced TO drop
into Pennsylvania with the Tara ra Boom
decay" would have been sent higher than
Gilderoy's kite.
Drinking of health was punishable by Il
fine OF five shillings or five days imprison-
ment, and horse racing, shooting matches
and sports OF like character were inter.
dicted. If the offenders happened to be
slaves they were whipped and imprisoned
instead of fined Chester (Pa.) News.

Effects of Impnre Air.

The baneful effect of impure air was
recently felt in remarkable way in a
London courtroom. When the Judge
entered his court in the morning he
found the jurors and counsel already
exhausted, and soon began to experience
similar feeling.
On ordering an investigation he was
informed that "the engine was out of
order and could only pump into the
courtroom the stale air that had been
used two days ago" The windows were
so constructed as 20 prevent any proper
ventilation of the premises, so that no
assistance could be obtained to expel the
two days old atmosphere which the
pumps persisted in sending into the
court. The result was that when the
jury list was disposed of the Judge, in
stead of sending for more cases, sent the
jurors home and quickly followed their
example. -Chicago News-Record.

The Rise and FAN of Families.

A family, like race or a nation, does
indeed bud, flower and run to seed, and
the seed must be transplanted to new
soil in order to bud and flower again.
Now part of the foolish ancestorship
of the past resulted in the creation of
missionaries built on the foundation
of an illustrious ancestor. We are get
ting wiser and better. We are putting
our aristocracies closer to the primal
source. We are learning no longer to
respect man because his ancestor was
better than himself, but because he him
self is an ancestor The farce of royalty
is played out; the farce of rank and
caste is in a moribund condition. All
men will soon learn to laugh at the
claims of long descent. Many men
laugh at them now. And this in itself
is an immense step in advance.
Snobbery, vulgarity. pretension-these
hideous traits will soon be of the past.

After the smoke has been exhaled a
distinct brown stain will be seen on
the linen, and it emits strong odor
like that of an old pipe. This is nico-
tine, the poisonous principle of tobacco,
and more or less of it Is absorbed
through the mucous membrane every
time that cigar, cigarette or pipe is
smoked or tobacco is chewed. How far
1t is injurious and how far it is bene-
