She chagned Color Every Year.

A remarkable freak of nature is oc
cassionally seen on the streets
Clou. h-Mac-Nal, Ireland, in the shape
OF woman who was born black in
Jamaica about As years ago. The wo-
man says that she remained with the
characteristic negro color to her skin
until she was 22 years of age, when she
began rapidly turning white, the COM
Plete transformation being made in less
than three months. She remained
white for about year and then turned
black again, but more slowly than the
white transformation had come upon
her. When this second change in skin
color took place she was sure that she
had returned to her original color and
would remain that hue during the bal
ance of her life, but it was only few
short months until she was again as
white as an albino. Since that time
he changes have yearly taken place,
he lady being black one summer and
1hite the next. She suffers no pain
whatever.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doc

scribed local remedies, and by constantly
failing TO cure with local treatments, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has proved
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and
therefore required constitutional treatment

Power of Growing Vegetation.


The power of growing vegetables.
plants, trees, etc, is something wonder
full. At Ceneriac, Honduras, a concrete
church, ISx26, and built of solid grant
told walls, three feet in thickness. has
been moved eighteen inches since 1870
by the growth of blue gum tree. The
Fungi Journal tells Of mushroom that
lifted London paving stone which
weighed 500 pounds, and which was
wedged in on all sides by other stones
and of common COW pumpkin which
almost overturned fence. When the
above instances of the wonderful power
Of growing vegetation were first pub.
lished, experts at the agricultural de-
partment's ground, Washington, d. c..
were directed to make experiments.
They did so and found that the force of
a growing pumpkin, of the yankee"
variety, was sufficient to lit az tons.
provided the weight is so placed as not
to interfere with the growth or natural
development of the vegetable.

The Ring Beeeher Gave to Ellen Terry.
Many persons in and out of Boston
know well the little shop under the mu-
scum Familiarity known as "Remick's. "
II has been the haunt in past wears of
many a prominent man and woman.
and the owner has been consulted by
little army of notorieties regarding rare
and costly gems. Some twenty years
ago the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
whose fondness for gems was almost a
passion, and who never visited Boston
without stepping into this little shop,
found here an uncommonly beautiful
aquamarine ring, which he bought and
wore fer some time. During the first
visit Of Miss Ellen Terry to this country
the actress lunched with Mr.. and Mrs.
Beecher. In the course of her stay
with them she caught sight of this ring
on Nir. Beccher's hand and asked to ex.
anime it. When it was handed herand
she displayed great enthusiasm over it,
she kissed it passionately several times.
~ Wv NRAt NQ AlANtt inquired NAT.
Beecher' simply because love these
gems So was the reply. "Weu, if you
care SO much for the ring as that" said
MIR. Beeeher, "please keep it and wear
/ for my sake"
Last spring, while Miss Terry was in
Boston, she hunted up this little shop
md spent some time in looking at the
.ems and talking with Mr. Remick about
hem. At length he asked her what
ecame of the ring that Mr. Beecher I
ave her. ~ wore it for years." she ,
nswered "After his death I became 7
lore attached to it than even. But on a
he day that Queen Victoria knighted v
.enry Irving, took the ring from my p
niger and gave it to him in honor of the t,
'easion. Sir Henry now wears Mr.. q
eeeher's ring, and will wear it as long
he lives"

"a Feather in His Cap"

The origin of "another feather in his
cap" is thus explained: In Hungary, in
the year 1899, it was decreed that only
he who had led a Turk should be
permitted to wear feathers, the number
of feathers thus worn to designate the
number of Turks the wearer had van
pushed. The law was finally repealed,
but not until it had become positive
reproach to a man not to be able to
wear one or more feathers.

Paris Is responsible for bringing out
the very latest fad OF the advertising
fend. We have heard of the American
who advertised his wares on the passing
clouds at night-time,by means of reflect
Ing written sentences extolling literally
to the skies his particular brand of mer-
chandise with powerful magic lantern.
We have heard too, of the enterprising
firm of patent medicine vendors who
painted an advertisement of their wares
on the rocks around Niagara, and of
those who painted them upon the road
way. II is development of this last
method which has just come out. 1t is
worked as follows: A tricycle. is built
with very broad tires, instead of being
smooth, are furnished with rubber type
of large pattern arranged so as to form
sentences. On the top of the wheel is
an ink-reservoir supplied with roller
which inks the type, and at the bottom
Is blower worked by the pedals, which
Is constantly blowing away the dust
from the roadway in front of the wheels |
80 that 1t has nice clean surface on |
which to impress It's advertisement. OF
course this novel tricycle. can only print
IN wood or asphalt; but as most streets
II Paris are so paved, there is plenty of
cope for IT, and the ink, being of bril-
liant color and very permanent, leaves
IS mark quite readable for days.

Weight Before ana After Meals.

Why Is Il that n man does not weigh a
pound more after eating pound of food
than he did before' A little reflection
will readily explain the apparent mys-
terry During the process of mastication
deglntition, etc, certain muscles are
brought into active play. 1t Is well
established fact in physiology that the
exercise of any muscle or set of muscles
necessitates a temporary waste of tissue
and that a certain amount of carbon Is
eliminated and passed off during the
course of meal. This loss, howeveris tri-
fling as compared with that of respiration
and Precipitation. both of which functions
are increased during the operation of
making meal. sThe length of time one
may take to consume a pound of food
makes but little difference In the losses

Increase of respiration or Precipitation.
Whereas, II 1t be hurried through both |

The Wonderful platom.

One of the most wonderful things in
vegetable life is beautiful and minute
class of sea weeds called diatoma. They
belong to the sea-weed family. Yet they
may be found by the thousands in any
roadside ditch, fresh or salt water lake,
or even in citerns, wells, springs, etc
Most species of plants are made up of
an Infinite number of cells, but with the
diatom it is otherwise Each represen-
tative of this wonderful family of plants
is formed in but a single cell. and this
so minute that it would require $500 of
the most common form, laid end to end,
to make a string one inch in length.
Some specie of diatoms have the pow
er of Independent motion, and on that ac-
count were for some time believed to
be animals.
