as "a member of the committee 20

court for McLennan county before the
legislature. He expressed himself as
well pleased with the favorable manner
in which the bill had been received,

not think it advisable to bring that
matter before the Legislature until the
other question had been decided by
both houses.

Perfumed Mists.

On certain parts of the coast of France, including the channel, mists occasional ly appear which are generally called ''perfumed mists." They come in the morning, especially during the spring, and strangely enough only when the wind is in the northeast. Sometimes they only last for few minutes; at, oth- CTS they hang about all day. They have a characteristic smell, similar to that of lime kiln.
 The origin of these mists is a mystery. In ono district the inhabitants thought the smell came from some lime hlns some miles to the northeast, and they may have been right. but that was not an explanation of the phenomenon, be- cause the smell from these kilns could not have been carried by northeast wind to all the other places where the mists were seen and the smell noticed.
 In one of these places the northeast wind comes from the sea; in another it comes overland. The smell does not therefore necessarily come from the ground. During the past few weeks the northeast wind has been very prevalent and the mist frequent.
 The best explanation given is that the blustering northeast and east winds sweep up the dust, gases and germs of the ground over which they pass and drive them toward the sea. When this wind is continued for some time, it con- tains such quantity of these things as to affect all our organs. That is the cause of the complaints which appear when the east wind blows, and it may be the cause of those ''perfuIned mists." Paris Petite Revue.

set in that direction. We want half the l prayers that way, half the sermons that way. We want to know how to get ashore from the tumult of this world into the land of everlasting peace. We do not want to stand doubting and shiv- ering when we go away from this world. We want our anticipations aroused to the highest pitch. We want to have the exhilaration of a dying child in England, the father tell ing me the story. When he said to her, "Is the path narrow2' she answered: |: "The path is narrow. It is so narrow that Icannot walk arm in arm with Christ, so Jesus goes ahead and he says, Mary, follow.'" Through these church gates set heavenward how many of your friends and mine have gone? The last time they were out of the house they came to church. The earthly pilgrimage ended at the pillar of public worship, and then they marched out to bigger and bright CT assemblage. Some of them were so old they could not walk without a cane or two crutches. Now they have eternal juvenescence. Or they were so young they could not walk except as the mater nal hand guided them. Now they bound with the hilarities celestial.
 The last time we saw them they were wasted with malarial or pulmonic dis order, but now they have no fatigue and no difficulty of respiration in the pure air of heaven. How I wonder when you and will cross over! Some of you have had about enough of the humping and failing of this life. A draft from the fountains of heaven would do you good. Complete release. you could stand very we'll. If you got on the other side and and had permission to come back, you would not come. Though you were in- vited to come back and join your friends on earth, you would say, 'tNo, let me tarry here until they come. shall not risk going back. If man reaches heaven, he had better stay there."

Ss Stopped the Cable.

William Damn and Joseph Mitten- dorf, strangers from St. Louis, were ses- ing the sights in the west bottoms last night. Not being used to the ways of Il big city, Mittendorf fell from cable car and was slightly bruised. He was taken to the Fifth street power house, Damn following. While the doctors were at tending to Mittendorf his companion with the swear word name wandered around the power house and fell into the cable conduit. He weighed 250 pounds and consequently knocked the rope from the drum and for few minutes stopped the whole Fifth street cable system. His escape from death was narrow, but as it was he was hardly hurt at all.-Kansas City Star.

HOW CATS OFTEN SPREAD DISEASE.
Mothers Should Teach Children Not to
 Handle Strange Animals.

Mothers Should Teach Children Not to Handle Strange Animals. Since have spoken in defense of the dog. let me say something more with | relation to that other favorite household | companion of man-the cat. 1 would call your attention to the fact that the cat is beast far more useful to mankind than the dog. Without the latter we could get along, but if we had no cats | we should have continual plague of rats and mice. which would overrun the cities and devour the crops and small live stock of the farmers.
 At tie, same time you may set it down l an indisputable truth that the domestic | cat is prolific source of a great variety of diseases. It breeds them and dis | seminates them-sl1n troubles partic- ularly. It carries about with it the con- tagion of diphtheria, one of the most fa- tai of human complaints, and 1t Is seri- ously suspected of helping to SOW the germs of consumption. A trouble akin | to ringworm which attacks the scalp and causes the hair to fall out is frequently conveyed by cats. Likewise it is with | scarlet fever, which, when it is in house, is always likely to be scattered abroad by the pet pussies of the estab- | ishment.
 The way of it is this: When there is | sickness in house, old cloths are apt to be used for various purposes. These are commonly thrown afterward into some out of the way place, like the corner of closet. Suppose that there is tabby about that is or the point of bringing into the world litter of kittens. Fe- male cats are constantly having kittens,
 as you know, being among the most pro | life of animals. She searches for se- | questered nook for her accouchement
 and is likely to make her bed of just I such lot of old rags as have described.
 As a natural consequence, not only is
 the mother cat infected as to her fur
 with the contagious disease, but all of
 her kittens are likewise. The latter are
 fondled by the children. Pathogenic
 germs seem to find most favorable
 breeding ground in the hair of cats As
 8 result the complaint is spread. Un-
 fortunately the infection is not limited
 to the house It Is spread abroad by the
 cats, which are notorious stragglers
 Thus before many days have passed
 there is an epidemic of scarlet fever or
 what not in the neighborhood. Nobody
 can imagine how it got about. Little
 Johnny dies of diphtheria, and nobody
 dreams that he contracted it by picking
 up a strange cat.
 | Children have a way of picking up
 cats and holding them to their faces to
 caress them. That accounts for many
 cases of that very disagreeable disease
 called ringworm. It is the same way
 with other skin troubles that are con-
 tagious. Cats as well as dogs are lia-
 ble to tuberculosis of the lungs. other
 wise known as consumption. That they
 communicate it to human beings is more than suspected Washington Star.
