ITS OUR EARNEST DESIRE

That people buying Lace Curtains, Chenille Curtains and all kinds of Dra- peries. know the truth relating to values. It's pretty hard work to tell the value of Curtains within a dollar or two pair We've found that out and profited by the experience even after years of buying. Our experience will cost you nothing. On the other hand it will save you dollars upon dollars if you will only listen to our money saving articles.

OVER NIAGARA IN A MILLION
YEARS

A Mathematician Estimate Of the
Volume Of Water in the Pacific.
The mathematicians figure on every
thing nowadays, from the number Of
leaves 81, Il given extent of forest to
the probable numbe: If molecules Of
matter that it takes to make up the
universe. One Of the most curious
calculations which we have met with
recently is one in which a German
professor gives figures to show the
number of gallons of water in the Pa
citic ocean. He first considers the av-
erage depth and then the average
length and breadth, aud then throws
the whole into square and the
square INTO globe. He finds that this
aqueous globe would be exactly 1876
miles in diameter. Next he considers
ocean water as weighing 10 pounds to
the gallon. and finds that his immense
sphere. were it a hollow metal globe,
would hold 2OOO0O.O00. 100000 two
hundred trillions) Of gallons: These
figures represent the number Of gal
Ions of water now IN the largest d.
vision of the worlds seas. 1t would
take that amount Of water more than
a million years to pour ever the preci-
pice at Niagara.-St. Louis Eepubilc.

A Wooden Leg That Brings Its own.
err a Good Income.
Alligatcrs are becoming somewhat
scarce in Florida, but few men still
make q good living hunting them,
their hides meeting with ready sale.
One Of the largest concerns In Jack
sonville engaged in dealing in alligat-
or hides has customer upon their
hooks named Tom Tucker, who brings
in more hides than any other three
men in the state. 1t was known that
the snurlans came from Dunn's creek,
q tributary Of the st. Johns river, but
beyond this fact nothing could he
learned concerning his methods Of
capturing the reptiles, until few days
ago. when buyer for the firm visited
Dunn's creek, and espied Tucker, lying
full-length on log. one end of which
was in the creek. Tucker had Il leg
thrown into the water, and just as the
buyer approached him he saw the alli-
gator hunter begin to scramble up the
bank, while huge saurian beat beat
the muddy water into foam. AS the
man reached the bank the alligator
came too, having swallowed portion
Of the leg that had hung over the log
into the water.
Tucker drew a long, sharp knife, and
soon killed the creature; then he UNI
screwed the leg and took it off to re-
move the gator. Then his scheme be-
came apparent. He has wooden leg,
and through it are driven sharp steel
spikes. He leaves the leg in the water
and it is swallowed by an alligator.
AS the reptile closes his jaws the steel
impales him, aud it Is impossible for
him to escape.-Washington Star.

Pho.phore.cent bill Boards.

The long suffering public is threat

hideous phase of bill board adver-
Using. Some German of misguided
genius has patented and is prepar-
Ing to put upon the market in this
country new kind Of phosphores-
cent paint for use in lettering all kinds
of advertisements on city boardings
and country fences. The letters show
in common black, white or other COL
ors during the day, but at night they
shine with smoky, lurid and alto
gether weird brilliancy. At present
there is at least some surcease of suf-
fering from the offended eye when
darkness covers up the horrors Of the
bill boards, but unless this foreigner
and his invention are suppressed the
streets will be a constant nightmare.
