They Got the Bingham.

From the Detroit Free Press.
A man stood loafing idly in front Of crowded
store where it was bargain day. when two
women stopped before him. They were al
ready so laden with bundles that it seemed i'm
possible that they could carry any more. One
woman was wheeling baby carriage.
There's that checked gingham," the man
heard her say; Its the prettiest I've seen yet
for babys summer dresses"
swell, let's go in"
"How can i take the carriage through that
crowd? It's no use irving to get anything if
you've got to drag baby around with YOU
The man loafing at the door took his hands
out Of his pocket.
Guess might as well tend baby as do any
thing else" be drawled; leave the baby with
me and I'll take care of it while YOU shop"
The women both looked at him curiously.
then the mother of the baby eyed the gingham
in the window and that helped her 10 accept
his offer.
You can leave your bundles in the cab with
the kid" said the man, as he took the tongue
of the perambulator and began to wheel the
baby back and forth.
But neither Of the women relinquished O
single bundle. Indeed, the mother of the
youngster at once took every package out of
the little carriage and added it to the mass in
her arms.
The man smiled grimly as he heard her say
to her friend:
HE won't be likely to steal the baby, but
won't take any chances with the dry goods,
would you?'

They were in the store a long time. When

A COCKLEBUR IN HIS THROAT.
An Indian Boy Who Met With . Curiou
Mishap While Driving Cattle.

An Indian Boy Who Met With q Curious
Mishap While Driving Cattle.
An Indian territory ''cocklebur" is a little
thing. but creates great deal Of disturbance
when lodged in ones throat Henry Roebuck
of South Canadian, l. T., carried one about in
this manner for exactly a week before getting
rid of 1t. During that week he did not get ten
minutes solid sleep. Every movement Of his
mouth gave him excruciating pain, and what
food he ate would scarcely have kept kitten
alive. DIR. William c. Glasgow. the St. Louis
throat specialist, succeeded in getting the
cocklebur out Of young Roebuck's larynx, but
only after many unsuccessful attempts and
spending upward OF three-quarters Of an hour
in the operation.
'The bur hurt worse than the operation -
whispered Henry to Globe Democrat reporter,
but I'm getting along pretty we'll now.'
Young Roebuck and his father occupied a
room on the third floor of the Missouri Meti-
cal College. The patient is boy of eighteen
years, tall and thin, and his father, a sun
Drowned rancher. is thinner yet ''He got the
bur stuck in his larvnx week ago Monday
explained the elder Roebuck. while we were
driving cattle. He was running after 'em to
beat the wind, for they were pointing wrong.
The dog we had didn't seem to know exactly
what to do, and as he chasing along Henry
began to holler at the cur He was plunging
through lot OF the bur bushes at the time and
as he opened his mouth for about the third
holler one of the measly things flew into his
throat. OF course, he sort of gasped, and that
pulled the thing down deeper The more he
gulped and coughed the deeper the bur got.
BY the time We got home where we had
something to pull it out with, it was out of
sight completely. Well, sir, do believe that
the last seven days have made the worst week
of my life. I've been with him ever since it
happened and haven't got as much sleep as he
has. You see, had to watch him so. Every
time he'd fall asleep he'd breathe through his
mouth and begin to strangle. ia have to wake
him up right off and make him breathe through
his nose. Eve had terrible time finding any.

The ''cockle" is prckly bur two thirds of an
inch in length, longer than it is through and
taperlng towards the ends. 1t is soaked red
with blood, and few of its "9uills' have beer
broken by the operation.

At the Scented Court.

The preseat craze for sweet scents, like all
the other elegances. dates back to the days of
courtly luxury in France. Nine. de Pompa-
dour spent 100000 for this part of her toilet
each year, and the court of Louis XIV was
known as the scented court" Hostesses of
the grand entertainments informed their
guests what particular perfume was to be en-
ployed for seeming tho rooms. that no other
odors might be used by the guests. And at
court different perfume was prescribed for
every day in the week. In the meantime the
gospel of soap and water was unknown to the
finest ladies. and the gorgeous palace Of Yer
sailes did not contain single bath room until

CASSAVA FOR GLUCOSE.
A Valuable Tropical Plant to BE Introdus
to This Country.

A Valuable Tropical Plant to BE Introdu ced
to This Country.
The cassavs plant is to be introduced into
Florida and California. Experts in such mat
ters assert that it will take the place Of Indian
corn as source Of starch for the manufacture
Of glucose. In tropical South America, where
it is native to the soil, 1t is utilized to great
extent for food. Long ago it was transplanted
to the East Indies for the sake of its feshy
roots, which furnish the product called tap
ioca.
The cassava is q struggling, crooked-growing
shrub, which attains a height OF six to eight
feet. The roots are bitter and contain poison
Gus substance, which is said to produce hydro
cyanic acid By rasping the roots to pulp.
placing them in coarse bags and subjecting
them to heavy pressure, this poisonous juice is
expelled. 1t has been used by the South Ameri-
can Indians for poisoning their arrows.
What remains Of the poison in the pulp after
it has been pressed is got rid of by baking the
pulp on heated iron plates 1t ia then broken
into small pieces and stored for use. So vola-
tile is the poisonous principle that, when the
fresh root has been cut into slices and exposed
for u few hours to the direct RAYS of the sun,
cattle eat it with perfect safety. The Indians
also partake Of it after roasting it in hot ashes
without any previous preparation.
The starch is separated and prepared by
heating on iron plates. Thus treated the grains
burst and aggiomerate in gum-iike masses
This is called tapioca. Brazilian arrowroot is
the starch deposited from the expressed Juice
when the latter il allowed to SETTLE It is
known as cassava -four or "mandioca meal
An intoxicating beverage termed .piwarrie' is
made by chewing the dried cassava pulp and
placing the masticated material in a vessel to
ferment, after which it is boiled for use.
A forthcoming report Of the Department Of
Agriculture states that the boiling process dis
pels the poisonous properties Of the plant The
boiled juice forms the basis of West Indian
dish called pepperpot. 1t is highly antiseptic,
and meat which has been boiled in it is pre-
served for q much longer time than is practi-
cable by any other culinary process. In South
America sauce called "arube' is made by
boiling down the fresh Juice before the starch
is precipitated. This is concentrated to a yell
lowish paste and seasoned with peppers. 1t is
kept in stone jars and used as a relish with fish.
"Tucupi sauce is prepared from the juice
after the starch has been separated. boiled and
seasoned with peppers and small fishes. 1t is
used in liquid form and tastes like an essence

iOafed around for another week. and the land

ment of his board, went out and found him an

mine was not timbered properly, and that he
would not work 1t. Now the board bill for three

hum the Job and he came back to DAILY He
swore at DAILY upon his return. telling him he
was too d-n particular about his work and
too d-n easy about his eating. He said
that he had got him another job and that he
wanted him to take it and stick to it. As DAILY
heard him say that the work WAS in the Alice
mine his heart must have jumped but there
was not change in his features and he only
said:
''Well, I will go and look at it
1t was the opportunity he had waited for and
he took his place as an ordinary miner in the

the property as he dug and mined. and at the
end of this time he threw up the job and left

after running down 100 feet the lead developed
into one OF the biggest copper veins on record
Up to this time not much attention was paid To
