CHOLERA ON THE vIsTULA.
Several battalions of pioneer troops,
who had been ordered out to practice
bridge building on the Vistula in August,
have been relieved of this service indef-
initely, owing to the spread of cholera in
the Vistula basin.
The cholera commission met on Friday
at the imperial health office, and decided
TO increase the frontier guard and the
physicians corps in East Prussia. IL is
impossible TO get a clear idea
of the spread OF the disease,
as the boatmcn conceal whenever possible
all deaths from cholera, and refuse even
to report cases of sickness. The Vistula
and its tributaries have been declared in

OUR DUTY ON SUGAR.
The sugar manufacturers have held sew

tariff of the United States They are al
most unanimous in begging the govern
ment TO retaliate in case the American
import tax on sugar be increased, but the
government treats the proposals coldly.
Under the treaty of 1891, Germany would
still be the most favored nation even
should the tariff be left al the figure fixed
in the German bill. Tie commercial
journals advise the government to in
crease the duty on American petroleum.

In all houses nowadays the window
stills can be turned to account if they
are broad and of good space in length.
If narrow, they may be rendered valu
able by being fitted with wide shelf
supported on brackets. This shelf should
be covered with suitable material. In a
library or sitting room this shelf will
form an admirable receptacle for light
literature and newspapers. For bed
rooms what is better than the broad

WHEN THE HAIR TURNS GRAY.
Many Theories For 1t, but None Salts
factory.

Many Theories For 1t, but None Salts
factory.
Concerning gray hair, there seems to
be no rational theory for change i'll the
color of the hair, except that of loss of
pigment color and presence Of gaseous
matter in the hair shaft This may be
the result of natural or artificial causes.
Probably among Americans the early
age at which the hair blanches is due
largely to nervous conditions. Mental
and physical disturbances, says a writer
in the Detroit Free Press undoubtedly
often affect the secreting apparatus Of
the hair, destroying coloring matter,
for history records instances Of the
change of hair from dark to white in a
single night through the cerebral ex-
citement of some great loss, bodily or
mental anguish Neither can coloring
matter, once entirely destroyed, be re-
stored. Do not believe the quacks who
pretend to restore gray hair to the
youthful color in any other way than
by dyeing, for science has not vet dis
covered method by which pigment,
once entirely exhausted, can be renew
ed. Dark HAIR may be bleachcd, but no
sane person could be deceived by the
dull lusterlcss yellow Of hair so treat
ed; neither does dyo deceive any one,
and a woman who would look charm
ing with head of white hair kept per-
fectly clean and fluffy with legitimate
treatment becomes disgusting when
she resorts to such fagrantly artificial
means for keeping the hair dark or
blond.
When ones hair turns gray, attention
should be directed toward keeping it
scrupulously clean, toward keeping the
complexion delicate and fine with color,
the eyes bright and the expression aui-
mated, for brilliant face framed by
snowy hair has peculiar charm if the
hair be abundant and becomingly ar
ranged.

PETERS LITTLE MISTAKE.
He Lost Big Money by His Purchase ot
Manhattan Island.

History tells us that in 1926 Peter Mi
mutt bought Manhattan Island from the
Indians and paid for it S24 in merchandise
1t has usually been thought that Peter
took advantage of the ignorance of the
untutored savage and made an excellent
bargain for himself.
No doubt but that Peter thought it
good trade, particularly when he consid
cred The value of lots after the streets
would be laid out Central park improv
cd, Brooklyn bridge built and the island
had a population Of 2,00O 600, for Peter
was d shrcwd real estate speculator and
looked n long way ahead, with a correct,
prophetic eye
Notwithstanding all of Peters shrewd
ness and foresight he made the mistake Of
his life and lost millions Of dollars by his
purchase IIo didn't stop to figure inter
est.
Since 1926 the rate of interest in this
country, where money has always been in
demand, has ranged from 6 per cent up to
highway robbery. 1t will be conservative
to say that per cent is fair average.
Now, if Peter had loaned his $24 at per
cent compound interest from then until
this date, what would its value be compar-
ed with the value of Manhattan Island?
At per cent compound interest money
will double once in about nine years.
Now, there have been 30 times years and
Z years more since Peter made his pur-
chase. Then if he had loaned his 1924 he
would have had nearly $ 400 900 at the end
of the first 100 years and more than $500,
| 000, 600 at the close of the second century
while in 1894 his principal of S24 wouli
have grown to be $50, 900, 600, GO0--th,
value of Manhattan Island many times
over.
So, in fact, the Indians got the best o
the bargain, and 10 doubt they chUcklct
