Beatty's Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
so as to sell so far, nearly 10000 OF
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearteI.
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisements
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200,-
600 more of his make; that means a
business of $50, ,OOO, 1000, if we average
them at 500 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
Beatty, Washington, New Jersey, for

AS TO RAPID EATING
II Is All Right II You Chew Your Food
We'll.

Professor Norton says there is a
prevalent idea that slow eating is IA
vorale to digestion, but this Is often fall
lacious. The important point is not
that we eat slowly or fast. but that
when We do eat we chew with energy
OF course. where the haste is due to
some mental anxiety, this may injur-
iousy inhibt the secretions. Slow eat
ing hegets a habit of simply mumbling
the food without really masticating It,
whilst the hurried eater is inclined to
swallow his food before proper masti-
cation.
Hence. hurried eating Ia bad, but
rapid mastication may be advantage
Gus. 1t concentrates our energies on
the act in question. and hence nnre
thoroughly accomplishes It, Moreover,
energetic chewing stimulates the secre-
tlon Of saliva in the most favorable
manner.

BUG THAT CUTS METAL.
One Species Of American Beetle That Has
sharp Horns.

From Popular Science.
The Zopherus melican'ls Is the only
known species of American beetle that
has strength enough in it's mandibles
to cut metal. This curious faculty was
accidentally discovered by r. w. De
voc. some years ago. A friend had
sent him some specimens Of this queer
insect from South America. He was
busily engaged when the insects ar
rived. and simply provided temporary
quarters for them in a glass jar having
a'pewter top.
Within less than forty eight hours
they had cut holes in the metal suf-
ficient to get their heads through. and
would soon have escaped had their
operations remained undetected.

The Father of the Cocktail.

The cocktail was the invention of
Colonel Carter of Culpeper Court House,
Va. Many years ago in that locality
there was a wayside inn named the
Cock and Bottle, the semblance of an
old English tavern, and which bore upon
its swinging sign a cock and bottle,
meaning thereby that draft and bottled
ale could be had within-the "cock, in
old vernacular, meaning the tap. He,
therefore, who got the last and muddy
portion of the tap was said to have re-
ceived the Cocktail.
Upon one occasion, when Colonel Car
ter was subjected to the indignity of
having this muddy beverage put before
him, he threw it angrily upon the floor
and exclaimed, Hereafter 1 will drink
cocktails of my own brewing, and then
and there, inspired evidently by the
spirit of Ganymede, he dashed together
bitters, sugar, the oil of lemon peel and
some old Holland gin, and thus and then
and there was the original cocktail con

EARLY LIFE OF JOSEPHINE,
EMPRESS OF THE FRENCH.

and applied unsucoessfully for divorce.
When Hortonse Eugene, the second child,
was born, the vicomte announced that he
was not the girls father, as he had not
lived with his wife for nearly two years
before its birth.
1t Is now agreed among historians that,
no matter how mean Bcauharnais was, his
wife gave him ample reason for his charge
and that in this at least he told the truth,
but not the whole truth, for her violations
Of the marriage pledge were not only nu-
merous but of character that indicated
passion in its most vulgar and disgusting
form. Left in want by her husbands
abandonment, Josephine took her two chill
dren and went back to Martinique.
At this time she was only % and Napo-
leon was yet cadet at Brienne.
That her husband loved her Is shown by
the fact that after she had been away for
two years he pleaded with her to return
and live quiet country life with him. To
this she agreed, not because of her love for
the vicomte, but because of her yearning
for the life of the gay metropolis, and then
she had the education of her son and
daughter in mind.
She returned to Paris in 1890, but the
second venture with her husband was
brief. The revolution broke out soon after,
and DE Beauharnais was among its earliest
victims. 1t was case where the sins Of
the fathers were visited on the children
with vengeance He belonged to the
class who had been cruel masters for 500
years and who were to be extirpated for
the crime in FIVE
De Beauharnais was executed early in
the revolution, and we can almost overlook
the errors of his life in the heroism of his
death. Not even the fictitious Sidney Car
ton of Dickens assembled the scaffold and
took the steel passport to eternity with q

"Follow truth wherever it leads" has
become the motto Of science. History can
only have value where it adheres to scien-
tific methods.
"The truth, the whole truth and moth
ing but the TRUTH" should be the one pur-
pose of culture. The historian of today is
an iconoclast. His drills and picks of in
vestigation have shattered and un dermined
many of our high ideals, and before the
pitiless searchlight Of truth we see that
many of the idols worshiped in the days
when life was q grand romance have now
fronts of brass and feet of clay.
Josephine, wife and empress of the first
Napoleon, may be in truth what nearly
all the young people of the generation just
past and many of the present generation
believe her. And Barras may be defamer
of the great and pure and good, but it Is
to be feared that she, "the empress of ro-
nance" and the most graceful woman OF
her day, must be classed with the "his-
toric adventuresses" who, meteorlike,
have dazzled the world and influenced the
destinies of nations.
But here are the facts. 1t is ours to OK
ercise reason, while not forgetting the
beauty of charity.
Josephine de la Pagerie, or Josephine
Tascher, was the Oldest of the three chill
dren, all daughters, of Joseph Tascher dc
la Pagerie, lieutenant of artillery in the
service of France.
Josephine was born at Trois Glets, Mar
Unique, in the French West Indies, june
23, 1868. Her mother, whose nader
name was Rose Claire Les Vergers dC
Sannvis, was of good family, but poor.
Josephine's education ceased soon after
her fourteenth year At this time she was
