A Strange Suit.

According to the Pittsburg Journal,
Peter Gruber, the Rattlesnake King OF
Venango county, has made the most
unique costume any man ever wore. 1t
consists of coat, vest, trousers, nat,
shoes, and shirt, and is made entirely OF
the skins OF rattlesnakes. Seven hum
bred snakes, all caught and skinned by
Gruber during the past FIVE years, pro-
vided the material forthis novel costume.
To preserve the brilliancy and the tiexi-
bility of the skins in the greatest possible
degree, the snakes were skinned alive,
first being made unconscious by chloro-
form. They were then tanned by a
method peculiar to Gruber, and are as
soft and elastic as wooden goods. The
different articles for this outfit were
made by Oil City tailors, shoemaker'
and hatters, and the costume is valued al
81 ,000.-[ Harper's Round Table.

Interesting Statistics.

According to the New York Medical
Record the 70 races inhabiting the world
communicate with each other in 1904 dit
ferent tongues, and confess to about 1000
religions. The number ofmen and women
is very nearly equal. The average lon
gevitv of both sexes is only 3S years
About one-third of the population die be-
fore the age of II. According to the most
careful computation, only one person in
100000 of both sexes attains the age OF
100 years and only six to seven in 100
the age of 60. The total population OF
the earth is estimated at about 1900
100000 souls, OF whom 32,214,000 die
annually. e., an average OF 9S,S4S

Vermont Farms and Forests.

When farm is deserted it is common
for the owner who does not live on the
land to "skin"it awbile-to cut the grass
and haul it off and use the field for pas
lures. In such cases the mowings soon
become pastures, and the pastures con-
stantly tend to become forests. The
stock which tends strongest to check
forest growth by eating the leaves OF
Young trees is sheep, but even where
they are pastured evergreens or some
deciduous growth with bitter leaves
cherry and the like-come in here and
there, and once any kind of tree gets a
foothold heavy forest is sure to follow.
The most common transition is from
grass to briers, and thence to poplar and
white birch and cherry, and finally to
maple and beech and the heavy timber
each in turn killing out it's predecessors
as it rises above them.
The farms are abandoned, as thu

Food, undigested, is poison. Digested,
it is lie and strength. Millions of us
suffer from indigestion, but we often
don't know it. We think it is something
else. Even doctors ofeen mistake the
symptoms.
Pale, thin people, who are overworked,
who need strength, who seem in want OF
proper food, should take Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial. 1t is astonishing what
food will do, when properly digested.
1t will make you strong, revive you,
refresh you, sustain you, make you tat

Thackcray on John Paul Jones.

Paul Jones. aftorward knight of his
most Christian majesty's Order of Mer-
it. but a Drawer traitor v wore n
sword"
Such were almost the last words
traced by tho hand of Thackeray, and
they show tho astonishing misconcep-
tion of Paul Jones which prevailed in
the mind of II of the ~justcst men that
ever lived. Washington was q hero even
to his enemies. yet Washington had nc
tually held u commission in the Brit.
ish army, while Paul Jones could say
to tho American congress at the close of
the war: 81 havo never borne arms under
any but tho American flag, nor have /
ever borno or acted under any commits
sion but that of the congress Of Amer
lea" This singular distinction against
Paul Jones extended tt the whole of the
foeble naval forco of the colonies. Sol
diers wero treated from the beginning
as prisoners of war, while until Paul
Jones forced an exchange of prisoners
upon equal terms American sailors wero
formally declared to BIO TRAITORS, pi-
rates and felons. paul JONES'" by
