A woman. Invention.

Nine. Zenowsky, who, although the
wife of Russian, is an American, has
made fortune by the invention Of Il
new material manufactured from lard
and valuable for use in making paper
flowers tissue paper and various other
purposes. The invention came about
from the fact that Nine. Zenowsky
was doing light housekeeping in two
rooms, and having placed paper Of
lard on the window sill she noticed
that a chemical change produced by
the weather had taken place In the
lard next the paper, making thin
substance like transparent paper. Ex-
perimenting. she was at last able to
produce this substance artificially.-

For your Protection.-catarrh ..cures" OF

For your Protectio -Catarrh "Cures" o.
TONES for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
1odide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, cars and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits Of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
Inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, 50cents.

Artichokes for swine

There is no crop probably regarding
which there is SO wide difference u
opinion as artichokes. Some farmers
are emphatic in condemnlng them as
nuisance and others are just as pro-
nounced in the opinion that it will pay
we'll to grow them for swine. In some
parts Of Michigan, for instance, arti-
chokes are not only grown regularly
by swine breeders, but they go to the
trouble of digging and storing them for
winter use. Where the winters are
short they will most unquestionably be
more useful than where the ground Is
frozen during nearly half the year, for
as long as the ground is open the
swine can dig them for themselves.
Their food value is considerable.
Pound for pound they are probably
worth as much as potatoes; Of course
when pigs are being fattened grain
must be added to the artichokes. They
are more valuable for store pigs and
brood sows than for pigs that are be-
ing fattened, since the latter should
not have to labor for their food when
they are being finished for the market.
II planted in a damp, mucky soil they
produce very large crops, and it. ID

nv Lady.s Looking Glass


Every girl who is dissatisfied with

better looking than the most kind of
looking glasses bid her believe. a
mirror, it is contended, cannot flatter
a face that is in its natural state; that
Is, not made up" Even the very hest
plate glass has pale green tinge,
which reflects a color tritle less clear
than the original; hair also has al
ways a more glossy sheen than the
glass shows.
If it is wavy, the glass never shows
the best Of the waves. and if it is
straight, the glass accentuates the
straightness. More important. and
still better to be remembered and care.

the face SO closely or so critically as

gray hairs that appear unfairly soon

Slate for Inside Decorator.
Slate is too much overlooked as q
material for inside decoration. 1t ex-
lists in many different shades. It IL
easy and inexpensive to quarry, and
by far the easiest stone to shape into
pleasing forms. These qualities render
it the cheapest of durable materials
for interior purposes. and the wonder
is that so little of it is in common use.
If large dealers would establish de-
pots of standard goods made up for
combination in house building in such
forms as would be available to archi-
tects, its use would be indefinitely ex-
tended. Hardly a cottage of any pre-
tensions would be built where 1t weula

How the Procession Formed

At midday all the preparations at
the grove had been completed. and the
people gathered at the church for the
| grand procession to the festival place.
A band composed of young men of
the village led the way, followed by
the three finest cuuipagrs to he had.
in which sat the aged Revolutionary
heroes. The 1912 veterans marched
neXr. and then came all kinds Of
vehicles, from the heavy farm wagon
to the light buggy. containing the
children and the very old folks. All
the others walked, and TO the mixed
time OF the band made fine showing.
| At the grove the minister offered a
prayer, and then the ambitious poll
tician read the Declaration of Inde-
pendence in his iiEest voice. Next
came the orator of the day. who. of
course. took as his theme patriotism
and the great and growing country.
| Here is an example of his style. 1t
refers to the sitlcls:
"Bchold those irOn-hearted men
armed with darntleSs valor, and en-
cased in a panoply that no human
force could Sllatter. and in readiness
for battle. stalk boldly forward. and
with one stroke of the pen cause

primeval chaos. Then listen. in i'm

continued huzzas that rent the welken,
to the boom of cannon and the uni

announced to an intensely interested
world the never to be forgotten fact
that independence of lingly and mon.
archical tyranny had been declared
with trumpet tongue, and would
henccfOrth prevail and conquer, till
every individual human being would,
and of right ought to be, forever
free"
This was considered magnificent,
and the long-llairod young man after
talking for three-quarters Of an hour
in this strain was deemed the hero
of the day. After the deluge of elo-
quence the joints of beef and other
delicacies were attacked. and it was
dusk when the feast was over. Back

which were considered magnificent,
but which would be sneered at by the

EVILS OF POSTAGE srAMP habit
Though Apparently Harmless 1t Hs
Led to Murder i'm France,

Though Apparently Harmless 1t Has
Led to Murder in France.
One Of the queerest eccentricities of
the human intellect is that which takes
the form Of collecting postage stamps.
Some people are unable to understand
what possible satisfaction there can
be in the ownership of, say, theoret-
ically complete collection of postage
stamps, or one which includes speci-
men of every kind of stamp ever is
sued by any country, race. tribe, COM
munity. Some people do, however, ell
joy collecting and exchanging the
sticky things and profess to find men-
tai peace and recreation in the con-
temptation Of q particularly rare or
ugly specimen.
The habit has always bee. supposed
to be quite harmless, and, from one
point of view, habit rather to be ell
couraged, as persons busted in collect
ing postage stamps are supposed to
have no time to spare for the commits
sion of crime, and moreover, the habit
has been deemed to be fosterer of
| mild and amiable qualities.
A recent murder in France has di-
rected the attention of alienists to the
postage stamp habit. The victim was
postage stamp collector, and the two
men arrested for his murder have con-
fessed that they killed him to obtain
possession Of his valuable collection Of
postage stamps. They make no other
explanation, and seem to regard this
as justification for their deed. This
illustrates the claim of the moral phil
osophers that habit perfectly harm
less per Sc may, if unrestrained by the
reason, lead to grave excesses.
The French court of equity will rig
idly examine the accused to see if they
are sincere in their morbid delusion
that the desire to obtain a valuable
collection of postage stamps as justlti-
cation for murder. If this be so 1t
should be warning to the reasonable
sane collectors of postage stamps IN
all countries. 1t may be necessary to
appoint guardians for collectors who

dency to feeble Misunderstanding
