An account Is given by Mr.. Thur
ston, In his handbook of the Kamela
dye of India, which produces gor-
geous flame color of varying shades
according to the process employed
The dye IS merely the powder which
coats the berries of tree which
grows wild In many parts of the
country. It Is brushed of into bas-
kets made for the purpose and re-
quires no further preparation. The
red powder is mixed with aIl1ali oh
tanned by the burning of plants, after
which it is allowed to stand in water
to extract the color. The silk to be
dyed is only to be soaked in the mix
ture to make it take up the color,
which is afterward fixed with alum.
The dye is pronounced to possess the
quality of insuring a fast and durable
color, the same result, however, being
claimed to be reached with the arti-
fetal product called aroflavina, and
more readily.

Foreign Grammars In Schools.

A little pamphlet entitled, 1.-THE
Caricature of German In English
Schools, published by certain Herr
Curt Abel Musgrave, deals with six
German grammars compiled by Eng
lish pedagogues, and now in use in
leading public schools, and in every
one of these the German critic finds
abundant food for mirth and ridicule
just as we should, no doubt, in Eng
ish grammars written in France by
Frenchmen or Germans. I wonder
whether we should hear similar crit.
cism if we could obtain the opinion
of an ancient Greek or Roman on
British Greek and Latin grammars.-

out, but L was too much for her, and
finally she owned up that she had
taken the pin"

Three and half miles west of
Aldie, Loudoun county, Va, is the
locally famous black swamp and
strange story has been current
thereabouts for the better part of
this century. Jesse McVeigh lived
long ago in an old stone house on
the edge of the swamp, and there
came to him once a stranger ask
ing shelter. The stranger was
taken in, and he lived there for five
years. He never went beyond the
swamp for exercise, and he took
elaborate precautions at night to
guard against surprise. When he
died stranger from a neighboring
village came and claimed the body
protesting to recognise the dead
man as an acquaintance. The
stranger who claimed the body was
the dead mans son and he after
ward became Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. The father a
wealthy and well educated Mary
lander, but man of ungovernable
temper, had slain a guest at his
own table by breaking his skull
with a decanter. The homicide's
place of hiding was hardly more
than fifty miles from the scene OF
his crime.

Senator Mcpherson, of New Jer-
sey is the kind Democrat that
will do to tie to. He is opposed to
the income tax and SO is his State.
His vote in the Finance Commit
tee could have eliminated the in
come provision from the tariff bill
but when the Republicans asked
him to vote with them and cut the
income feature out he replied that
while he is bitterly opposed to the
income tax, he could not vote with
the Republicans and against his
party on the measure.

George. W. Childs once said to q
girl from the west who went to him
with letters and the hope of getting
sufficient influence to do something
in the arabic field of journalism:
Little woman, if you can do
something, go ahead and do it.
The world is hungry for something
new. It is an omnivorus creature
but it wants a change constantly.
Keep as quiet as you can. Keep
out of mems ways as much as you
can, for it is trespassing to go on
private properly. Keep in good
health, good spirits and good cloth
es. and don't try to be good or one
of the boys. Save half of your
earnings. Go to church. Be agree
able but reserved, and if some hon.
orable man offers you his name and
his protection, give it all up, marry
him and devote your energies to
homemaking. The business world
is no place for a woman. 1t is a
rough place, and people have to get
rough to succeed in it. 1 know
hundreds of gentlewomen, in bust
ness, but they always seem to me
like going fishing in dress suit
and white glove. Exquisite fabrics
are not intended for rough and
ready wear"

AnUnseen Enemy

Is more to be dreaded than an open and
visible one. That subtitle and lurking
foe, which under the generic name of
malaria manifests itself, when it clutch
es us in its tenacious grasp, in the vari-
GUS forms OF chills and fever, bilious re-
mitten, dumb ague or ague cake, can
only be effectually guarded against by
fortifying the system against its inside
GUS attacks with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, thorough antidote to the pois-
on of miasma in the system, and safe
guard against it thoroughly to be relied
upon. In the event of malarious at
tack, avoid poisoning your system with
quinine, and use instead this wholesome
remedy, unobjectionable in taste and
far more effcacious than any drug.
Use the Bitters for dyspepsia, bilious
ness, constipation, kidney complaints
and rheumatism.

Three Queer Epitaphs.

Addison, the great English writer
whose biographies say was "man
of exquisite tase and refinement, 4"
and whose society possessed an
Undesirable CHARM" is said to
have ordered the following lines
inscribed upon his wife's tombstone:
Here lies my wife.
Here let her lie.
She's now at rest,
And so am 1.
Another tombstone in the same
cemetery bears this inscription:
Here lies our Mary Ann at rest,
PilIowed now on Abraham's breast.
It's rather nice for Mary Ann,
But somewhat rough on Abraham.
A Norman, whose three wives
were blown to atoms in a powder
explosion, inscribed the following
lines upon a board set up at the sim
gle grave in which the remains of
all three were buried:
Stranger pause and shed tear,
For Mary Ann lies buried here,
Mixed in some mysterious manner
With Nancy Jane and probably
Hammer.
