by skin grating n selected cock and

What Smnllnnx Gan Do.

At the time of the announcement Of
vaccination by Jenner smallpox caused
more than one-tenth of all the deaths
OF the human race. Fifty million peo-
pie died in Europe from smallpox dur.
ing the eighteenth century. In the
sixteenth century the disease appeared
in Mexico, and $500, 900 of the popu-
lOtion yielded up their lives in a few
years, leaving some provinces almost
depopulated. In 1907 in Iceland
$4,000 died IN opo year, the entire
population being but 80, 900. Seventy
per cent. OF the people of Greenland
died of smallpox in 1874. Smallpox
IS the most fearful disease with which
the human race has ever been scourged.

Takes a Wise Man to Know Butter

5. Harding, of st. Louis, at the Coch-

the use of butterine that many dealers
now advertise it openly, and their
patrons no longer try to keep their
purchases of it quiet. / reckon every
hotel and big boarding house in Wash
inSton uses it in their kitchens, Mt

ter in the cooking, and numbers of
Them doubtless serve it on their tables
as well. 1t is knocking the spots ont
of the dairy business in the North

come too general for its manufacture
and sale to be injured by any laws
that may be passed for its govern
ment. 1t is cheap; it does everything
that butter will do, and it doesn't
spoil or get strong like the genuine
stuff, and the way it is being made
now causes it to defy even the most
delicate expert to tell it from churned
butter when it is placed before his
plate. The factories are springing up
all over the country, too. for there's
big money in making butterine. -

A Remarkable Memnrr.

George w. McMillion, of Friar's
Hill, w. Va, is about forty years old
and has the gift of remembrance won
derfully developed. He remembers
everything he ever knew or read and
can perform the most remarkable
feats. He can, off hand, recite the
names, birthdays, hour of death, ma
lorities and the closest details of the
lives of all the Presidents in regular
order; can name all the horses in his
nelghborhood can reclte poems OF
5000 words without missing word :;
can recount the details Of every visit
he has made in his life; can name all
the people he has met in two weeks
and every word every one of them has
said can quote chapter after chapter
of the Bible and has a like penchant
for repeating history. He is hardly
human in many respects, sleeping III
the woods and often going for weeks
without washing his face One of his
most interesting feats is the repetition
of every word of a marriage ceremony
which he heard when he WAS twenty
one and which united girl who was
his sweetheart TO another man.
1t is said that this ceremony was
the first thing he ever tried to re-
member and that the circumstances
surrounding it are the cause for his
peculiar habits, having been very
promising young man before this girl
Tilted him. Since then he has given
no attention to his personal appear
ance and cares for nothing but read
ing and remembering things. Wash

demand Of Mexico received yesterday at

CONSTANTINOPLE, January 2G.-The
court of casa ton has confirmed the judg-
ment of the court Of Erzinghiam, rendered
on November Is, by which twenty-four
Armenians were condemned to death and
thirty-four others were sentenced to vari
Gus terms of Imprisonment. The decision
of the court. Of cessation has caused strong
feeling among the Armenians, especially as
it is reported that the condemned men will
be executed forthwith.
LONDON, January pa dispatch to the
Speaker from Constantinople says that the
work of prosecuting the Armenians in
Armenia and Asia Minor is proceeding as
vigorously as before, adding:
1.-The Turkish newspapers are evidently
under orders to keep up the excitement
and it is extremely difficult to get informa-
ton from the interior. Even consular dis
Patches have been opened in the past and
very few Armenians are allowed to come to
Constantinople. The sultan believes that
Europe will not actively Intervene.
"One contingency, however, gives the sui
tan anxiety. If the present crisis Is pro-
longed it is not improbable that there will
be troubles in Macedonia in the spring, and,
If they are serious, Bulgaria, Greece and
Servia will inevitably be involved and the
eastern question will be raised i'll it's most

1t has been a matter Of current report
for years among board Of trade men that
Phil Armour has no poor relations, says

a veteran of the board remarked by way
of explanation of this unusual good for

Armour remarked, with smile, when
one of his friends asked him about it the
other day. "But it's a mistake I havs
enough of them"
Then the big packer burst out in a
laugh, and his friends knew good
story was coming.
Zone of the poor kind-he lives down
Ia Illinois-is one of the most persist:
ent men ever knew. He keeps writing
and writing for money all the time. He
is not bad fellow, only improvident,
and if he displayed the same energy in
attending to business that he does in
writing to me he would have been rich
a long time ago. Well, he kept sending
one letter after another. saying that if
he only had $500 he would be all right.
He repeated this so often that one day
I told my secretary to send letter say
ting that if he would't bother me for a
year would send him $780,"
well, sir, and Mr.. Armour's sides
shook with laughter, 'as soon as the
mails could bring reply I got it. He
said, Make it 81, 900 and two years.,
and 1 thought it was such clever turn
that 1 sent the money"
''What happened nextP''
"In about three months he wrote
again, saying the agreement was off be-
cause his wife hadn't been included.
Mr.. Armour seemed to think the
whole thing was great joke and espe-
oially enjoyed the shrewdness Of his
