Largest Automobile Carriage.

Australia claims the largest auto
mobile carriage ever constructed for
actual service. This car utilizes seventy
five horsepower, on unheard-of
amount for any such vehicle. The car
travels from Coolgardie to the coast
for the transportation of merchandise
to the mines. Besides the load on the
car itself, it drags two 'trnilers" over
a distance of 400 miles. A railroad
was too expensive a luxury to indulge
in that country, and so the idea of the
big motor was conceived. So scarce is
water along the route travelled that the
steam is not exhausted into air, but
saved, reconverted into water, and
thus used over and over again.

sary for masticating our food properly
and incorporating it thoroughly with
saliva, it would be better to take moth
ing but broths and similar foods. The
use of water and other liquids as
lubricators is not to be tolerated.
On the other hand. IL we bear in
mind the whole mechanism of diges-
ton, It will readily be seen that in
cases OF weakness or want Of tone ON
the part of the muscles Of the stomach,
when every part of the food cannot
be properly presented to the action of
the digestive juices, the introduction
into the stomach of n moderate amount
of water may be Of no slight benefit.
The mass of food will become more
pliable, and so more easily operated
upon by the weakened muscles.

the stomach must never be overlooked.
If this Is interfered with in any way
by the use of liquids. we must prompt
ly prohibit their indulgence.
Fluids may be taken ad libitum
during meals by those whose digestive
powers will allow it, but such persons
should keep in mind that the strongest
stomach may be abused too far, while
those whose stomachs are already I'M
equal to a severe strain should be es-
pecially careful as to the quantity Of
fluid imbibed with the food.
The saliva Is the best lubricator for
the food while 1t is In the mouth, both
because of its starch-digesting powers
and because its alkalinity serves to
stimulate copious flow Of the acid
secretion of the stomach.
Any habit, therefore, which permits
the entrance OF food into the stomach
before it is thoroughly incorporated
with saliva must be pronounced per-
nicious in the extreme.

Indians should be mustered out Of SER
vice when their time of enlistment ex-
pired, and be refused re-enlistment.

Thus one after another the Indian

New Idea In Eggs.

Thomas Hendricks, farmer resid-
ing at Lisle, N. Y, recently sold
quantity of eggs to family in Bing
hamton, who complained that they
were almost worthless, owing to a
strong taste of kerosene. He could
not account for this, but when bak-
cry that he had been supplying re-
fused to receive any m ore goods for
the same reason, he began an investi-
CATION. He found that the chickens
had eaten quantity of corn left lying
in the vicinity of two kerosene barrels,
This gave him an idea, and he began
to experiment. He confined three
hens in a coop and fed them on corn
that had been soaked over night in
water strongly tinctured with extract
of vanilla. The result was that the
eggs could not be eaten, but when used
in cooking impaired delicate flavor
to the cake or pastry, without the use
of other favoring. He took some OF
these eggs to the bakery, where they

GIRL SHIPS As 4 SAILOR.
Plan Of Couple to Save Enough fos
Start In Australia.

okaSt III Hueue'tas
Leaving comfortable situation in
home in an English provincial town,
woman puts on mans clothes and
ships as an able seamen, with her be-
trothed husband, for an Australian
colony, willingly undertaking the
hardships of six months voyage in
order to pass the remainder of her life
in Punishment with the man she loved,
because of memorable English law.
This is the strange story OF Nancy
Clifford, now Nancy Anderson, if all
be well with her. This romantic story
of the sea comes from George Cam,
mate of the British ship Hawkesdale,
which after making voyage from En-.
gland to Australia, put in to Portland,
Oregon, for return cargo of wheat.
Anderson married Nancy Clifford's
sister. They lived rather unhapily in
their English home. At last she died.
He did not then fall in love with his
ister-in-law. He had been in love
with her ever since he had saved her
from drowning. An English law is
that man cannot marry his deceased
Anderson had followed the coasting
and trading vessels. He hated to
leave his country, and SO did Nancy
Clifford. They were poor and Au-
stralia was many thousand of miles
away. TO that place or some other
land they must go. Thatlittle money
they had must be saved for abeginning
in the new world, so Nancy preferred
to become sailor rather than be left
behind, and then, if they never reached
port, they would perish together.
How Anderson managed to ship an
unframed, boyish-looking fellow as a
seaman on the Hawkesdale is matter
which can be explained only by him.
1t is sufficient to say that it was done,
and after the hardship of the long
voyage they landed in Australia and
secured their discharge from the re-
luctant captain. On the forward deck
of the ship Hawkesdale the crew used
to talk about the attachment of two
very ordinarylooking sailors for each
other. To satisfy them, Anderson
told them that when his mate was,
younger he had saved his life.-San
Francisco Chronicle.

When the last organization of Indian
soldiers was mustered out of service
the other day the end was reached of
what was once considered promising
'cheme to make the Indians Of real
use to the United States government.
The idea Of enlisting Indians originat-
ed with an officer who fell in the bat
tie of Wounded Knee. in 1891. He had
organized several companies of Indians
and these under his guidance had made
excellent cavalrymen. After his death
the Indians seemed discouraged and
deteriorated in the service. The idea
Of their enlistment, however, seemed
popular, and other companies were
formed. At first the Indians were
greatly pleased, but gradually deca-
dence appeared. The Indian began to
show decided disinclination to abide
by military discipline. The blare Of the

The people of Burmah believe that

rubies do not ripen simply because they
are not allowed to do so. If you want
to 'ripen" the ruby In your ring, ac-

Goods at Cornell Have n Crew Hard

The famous crew of girls who have
upheld the honor of Wellesley college
in rowing for years have a rival this
season. Cornell girls are hard at work
training, and this fall will probably
see an intercollegiate rowing match of
girl students, in which Ithaca hopes to
win.
For about three years rowing has
been somewhat of fad with the Cor
nell girls, but they never settled down
TO hard work until this year. Early

and Coxswain Colson, trainer of the
