The Sources Of COlOrs.

An interesting enumeration has been
made by somebody, and published in a
technical journal of the sources of color.
From this it appears that the cochineal
insects furnish the gorgeous carmine
crimson, scarlet carmine and purple
lakes; the cuttlefish gives sepia, that is,
the inky fluid which the fish discharges
in order to render the water opaque
when attacked; the India yellow comes
from the camel; the ivory chips pro-
duce The ivory black and bone black
the exquisite Prussian blue comes from
fusing horse hoofs and o ther refuse ami.
NAL matter with impure potassium
carbonate; various lakes are derived
from roots, barks and gums blue black
comes from the charcoal of the vine
stock; Turkey red is made from the
madder plant, which grows in Hind o.
stan; the yellow sap of Siam tree pro-
duces gamboge; raw sienna, is the
natural earth from the neighborhood
of Sienna, Italy; raw umber is an earth
found near Umbria and burned; India
ink is made from burned camphor
mastic is made from the gum of the
mastic tree, which grows in the Gre
clan Archipelago; blister is the SCOT OF
wood ashes; very little real ultramar-
inc. obtained from the precious lapis
lazuli, is found in the market; the
Chinese white is zinc, scarlet is iodide
of mercury, and vermillion is from the
quicksilver ore cinnabar.--New York

1t is business which keeps employ

A True Bill.

The greatest mistake any nation ever
made is to license a man to make
drunkards, when God has pronounced
such an awful curse on the sin of drum
kenness. Drunkenness is crime be-
fore God, but the greatest criminals
are the drunkard- makers and the vot
ers. 1t is impossible for a man to be a
Christian and lend his influence in any
manner to the accursed liquor business,
either by tippling or making excuses
for the infamous business on the street
corners, or by voting men into office
who would license the damnable traffic
in intoXicants.

The DEVILS Brew.

GA few clergymen," says DR.. Tai
mage" are hindered from taking part
in the Prohibition cause because Christ
turned water into wine. But two years
ago | was in Cana of Galilee, where
the miracle was performed, and saw
the very firkin that tradition says con-
tanned the wine that the Lord made,
and | have to report that there is not q
drop of it in all the world. The Lord
made that-the devil made the rest"

It is time that the intelligent people
should stop their swinging and sway
ing to and fro between the Democratic
and Republican machines, which are
both obviously corrupt, and commence
acting as though they were in fact as
well as in name intelligent, and mani
feat their intelligence by such action
as would really benefit themselves and
their country.

History i'm One Hundred Words.

The Washington Pathfinder recently
offered prize for the best original his
tory of the United States in one hun
dred words. Out of Oil contestants
the prize was awarded to w. T. Gooden
of Pana, Ill. for the following:
The revival of learning, commercial
rivalry, and religious zeal in Europe
led to Columbus discovery of America
in 1892. Conflicting territorial claims
and parental animesity involved En-
glish, French, and Spanish colonists
in wars, eliminating in English SUI
premacy, in 1853. England's oppres-
sion alienated colonial affection, in
duced revolution, hastened independ-
ence. Common cause and danger be-
gat colonial union; the weakness of the
confederation demanded federal re-
public. Party differences tempted
legislation. Negro slavery precipitated
civil strife, secession, emancipation.
Federal authority supreme, reorganiza-
ton succeeding. Religious freedom,
an unmuzzled press, inven tion, inter
nal improvement and universal educa-
ton have conspired to prosperity at
home and honor abroad.

Reader, did you eyer take SIMMoNs
LIVER REGULAToE, the "KING OF
LIVER MEDIcINEs?" Everybody needs
take liver remedy. It is sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid Of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
tenn. For laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
