Had Faith In His Watch.

The pride which a man takes in a
good watch rarely is carried to the limit
reached by Chicagoan who has come
to the notice of the Record. He was a
man who had faith in his watch. This
was partly because he had paid large
sum for it and partly because he was a
man who believed that things which
belonged to him must be good because
they did belong to him. His friends
joked him about his faith, but he re-
manned firm. When he went to take
the train from his suburban home in
the morning he did it by his watch, and
when he left the big station downtown
in the morning he compared it with
the great clock in the tower to see if
the tower clock was right. When the
train pulled into the station one morn
ing the other passengers got up to
leave the car, but the man remained
seated whats the matter, Mason?''
said one of his friends. ''Aren't you
going to get off?'' mo, SIR said Ma
son, consulting his timepiece. ''Im
not-not until we arrive, at least. This
train doesn't get into the city until
SIG, and by my watch it's only s:12."

PAPER CARPETS ARE COMING.
They VIII Be Welcome in a Land Where
Dust and Moth Prevail.

1ney VIII be welcome In a Land WneE0
Dust and Moth Prevail.
We have had great variety of car
pet materials, first and last, and good
many uses have been made of paper,
but the two have never before been
identified. Now, however, we are in
formed that carpets are being made of
paper, and the following description of
the process is made public:
The stock used must be of long fiber,
says the Paper World, in order to give
strength to the paper. All such as are
to be colored must be dyed in the pulp
to obtain uniform color throughout.
Colors must be fast.
Every lot of the same color must
match to shade, as it cannot be
changed when once done. The paper
must be of uniform thickness thr ough-
out the width and length of the oil, for
though color may be right, coarse yarn
will not shade alike. AS the
yarn is twisted on a long frame,
the utmost cleanliness must be OBJ
served not to stain the warn
with oil or dirty fingers, for, un-
like the other yarn, it is not cleansed,
hence, if dirty and not discovered by
subsequent handling, it goes into the
carpet and to the consumer. When
the rolls of cut paper are the desired
height, the shaft is taken out, the
nut removed and the shaft drawn
out, leaving the paper, each strip with
its ring to be separated from the other
by a knife for that purpose. After
separation these little rolls are soaked
in water until thoroughly impreg-
mated, then taken out and left to drain,
when it is ready for the spinning
frame, and it is twisted like any other
yarn. The yarn is then dried, wound
into cops, and is then ready for the
loom.

PLENTY OF CABS IN LONDON.

The Withdrawal of Five Thousand of
Them Makes No Disturbance.
The recent withdrawal of five thou
sand cabs from the streets of London
on account of strike of the cabmen
against the owners of the vehicles was
talked about with apprehension before
it occurred. When the cabmen finally
struck, it was found that the vast pas
senger traffic of London could be
handled easily by the cabs still in serv-
ice. These figures give some idea of
the enormous number of cabs in the
English metropolis.
Pat Sheedy once remarked that there
were more cabs in London than there
were men in New York. The cabs and
horses are nearly all owned by the big
stables, and the cabmen pay about
three dollars and seventy-five cents
day for the use of cab and one horse.
The driver must feed his horse three
times a'day, and it is by no means easy
for the cabmen to make profit, since
one may travel two miles in any direc-
ton in a cab in London for shilling.
The public does not bother much about
elevated or underground roads in Lon
don. 1t is claimed there that they have
solved the rapid transit problem by
having perfect pavements throughout
the city, so that the cabs run easily,
and the fares have been brought down
to minimum.

An ALL-NIGHT TOWN.
The Stores of Hamburg Are Open Every
Hour In the Twenty Four.

Hour In the TwentytFour
Hamburg may be suitably described
as an all-night town. The cafes and
beer saloons do not shut until two in
the morning, while some of them, by
paying an additional license, are al
lowed to remain open all day and all
night. Many of the shops never close.
At three a. m. the tobacconists are still
open, and at this hour there are several
shops at which you can procure hot re-
freshments-s -sausageS, so dear to the
German inner man, and the like. At
various points men station themselves
throughout the night with the little
stoves on which they fry pork sausages
One may often see swell folk, ladies
included, chatting with these itinerant
vendors, and regaling themselves with
a somewhat odoriferous sausage at
three o'clock in the morning. The
bakers shops seem to be always open,
saysra writer in Pearson's Weekly. I
visited one of the largest cafes at Ham
burg at the unearthly hour of three
thirty in the morning and there found
about three hundred respectable peo-
pie calmly drinking their coffee as if
it were broad daylight. There was not
a single vacant table. Remember, it
was not night club, but an orderly
cafe, where no unseemly scenes are
permitted. There are some curious re-
strictions regarding the opening of
shops on Sundays in Hamburg. After
two-thirty o'clock tobacconist may
only sell one cigar to one person;
should you require half dozen smokes
you have to visit half a dozen shops or
take five friends with you to one estab-
ishment and each of you buy one ci-
gar. There is a heavy penalty for
breaking this rule. With the excep-
tion of the restaurants and tobaccon-
lists, only the dried fish shops are to be
seen open afterutwo-thirty o'clock. AS
the clock strikes midnight on Sunday
hundreds of shops are Immediately
opened, and brisk trade ensues. Be
tween midnight on Sunday and two
o'clock on Monday morning many
tradesmen do their best business of the
week, Notwithstanding the fact that at
this hour nothing that cannot be
bought at any other time is really re-
Ouired.

THE MATURE GIRLS DAY.
At Last the InteIlieenee Of Thirty Charms

At Last the Intelligence OF Thirty Charms
Men.
There was time-our mothers day
when a girl over twenty-five was
looked upon as passe and unattractive.
She hated to tell her age, and it was
only under pressure that she could be
forced to admit that the twenties had
been left behind and the more ad-
vanced period of life entered upon
This was at time when physical at
traction-the bloom of youth-was the
sole magnet that drew men to her
shrine, according to the Philadelphia
Times. As days have passed and men
tality has taken precedence over the
more evanescent qualities, it is discov-
cred that the ripper mind, the richer in
teHigence that belongs to the woman
of thirty is far more attractive than
the coy grace of the girl of eighteen or
twenty.
The charm of youth cannot be gain
said; the freshness, the naive, undevel-
oped quality of experience still to be
gained is an attraction that will hold
sway as long as the world stands, but
its stronger and more definite foe is to
be found in the experience, the mental
quality and ripe understanding of a
woman who has passed through the
period when ingenious simplicity is
the charm, and a new, warmer and
richer element has taken possession of
her personality.

The Speedy MOOSE.

To one who knows nothing of big
game, it is amazing to see how fast a
moose can run, his stride being much
longer than horse. A light freight
train was running on the Northern
Pacific, in the upper part of Minnesota,
when the engineer saw big moose
standing directly on the track, and as
soon as the animal saw the engine he
took to his heels down the track.
There was a perfectly straight run for
four miles, and the engineer deter
mined to test the speed of the moose,
of which he had frequently heard. At
first the gait of the moose was sort of
trot, and even when the engine gained
speed the animal did not seem to exert
itself. Faster and faster sped the
engine, but still the moose trotted
ahead, and all the power of steam
could not prevail over this monarch of
the forest. At last, after covering
four miles and turning a curve, they
came upon a gang of section hands,
and the victorious moose leaped the
tracks and was lost to view in the
forest.

DEAFNESS Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
5dnfamed you have rumbling sound or
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result. and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and
! this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; !;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
,catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucous surfaces.
