VIII q Hsre Again One Week, June
s4th to a7d.

The imperial organ Of the human
system is the eye. All through the
Bible God eulogizes; 534 times
does that book speak of the eye.
The eye is one OF the organs most
liable to render life miserable
failure, loathsome burden. Loss
Of sight is the very king of terrors.
While any impairment of vision is
q source of CHASTITY anxiety, of con-
slant dread, of sickening mental
worry, to say never word Of acute
physical anguish.
The defective eye always makes
itselfmanifestin one way or another.
Headache, blurring, dizziness. in
fiammation, granulation, winking,
trembling, smarting, all of which,
and many other symptoms, should
be taken as a warning Of approach
ing untold misery. If you have
any disease of the eye. ear or nose,
throat and catarrh, or if you need
glasses do not fail to take this rare
opportunity to call on DR.. Kalem
c. Sapero. the eminent physician
and surgeon, who is one OF the
most successful men Of the age in
the treatment of his specialties, the
eye, ear, nose, throat and catarrh.
For years past he has devoted his
entire time to the diseases Of these
organs and his fame has spread
from coast to coast as a most able
practitioner. Nor do patients need
to be referred to strangers,to learn
the truth Of his ability, for right in
our own town and vicinity hum
dreds have been benefited by his
treatment. He will again be in

The maiden aunt of San Francisco
official has gradually cultivated fondl
ness for sensationalism until love OF
reading horrible descriptions in the
newspapers and morbid imaginings in
books has gained complete ascendency
over her. An old friend of the family
inquired n few days ago of the nephew
concerning the health of his aunt. 1--WE
are rather anxious about her." was the
perfectly serious reply. "She is not
exactly ailing, but her spirits seem de-
pressed. She does not seem to be en-
joying her murders and lynchings as
much as usual"

by England, but the South is now un-
derbidding the manufacturers of that
country in many lines. In one week
5000 tons OF iron were shipped from
Alabama to Japan alone. The iron
was sold at the furnaces in Alabama at
S4 ton less than was asked at the fur
naces In England, and the freight is
about the same from both points.

The remark that famous general
made upon being asked how he liked
TeXas-that if he owned Texas and
tophct he would rent out Texas and
live in tophet-is familiar to many, but
III the matter of nicety of point the
reply of an innkeeper near Dallas, Tex.
to about the same question, deserves
even more attention than the famous
utterance referred to. The innkeeper
had moved several times from state tc
state and had finally located in Texas
where he had met reNerses, and had
about made up his mind to decamr
once more when he was asked by a
chance customer if he liked the place
His reply was in the form of q story
"There was once a man who moved
from Kentucky to Nebraska, from Ne
braska to Arizona, from Arizona to
Texas, and then he died and went ia
hades, but the change was so gradual
that he never noticed it,"

Ottawa county people are having a
nice time OF it with their county seat
war Port Clinton seeks to retain the
seat of justice, while Oak Harbor
desires TO become the new hub of the
county. The county seat was estab-
lished at Port Clinton IN 1910 by COM
missloners appointed by the legislature
for that purpose and it has been the
county seat now for 81 years. In 1868
an effort was made by the citizens OF
Oak Harbor, through u petition 10 the
legislature, for an enabling act grant.
ing permission to vote on the removal
of the county seat from Port Clinton to
Oak Harbor. The act was passed, the
election was he'd and the project
dictated, and it would seem that the
legislature would do no good for the
people lof that coutny, by grant No
another chance for contest.

Peculiar Design of n Dancing Mas
teF's Monument.

One OF the best-known dancing mas
ters in eastern Connecticut few years
ago was Gurdon Cady. He was one of
the best fddlers and prompters in the
state. No festive occasion where dane
ing was feature could be carried out
In fashion without Mr.. Cady to superin-
tend the figures. he lived in Central
village, In Plainfield, all his life,
and accumulated considerable proper
ty, says the New York Times.
Before Gurdon Cady died he had n
monument built under his own imme-
diate instructions. This stands over
his burial place in the pretty village
cemetery in Central. He gave the
sculptor the directions for marking the
stone, and sat and played his faNorite
airs in the graveyard while the men
were at work. Day after day, as the
lettering and figures were being chis-
eled into the granite, Cady would ap-
pear, and, after chatting with the men,
take out his violin, tune up. and then
play Arkansas Traveller" Money
Musk" "McClond's Reel" or "The Dew
lis Dream" as his fancy prompted.
The stone, when completed, was of
unique design. On one side is pictured
COW. above and beneath which are
the words: my First Jersey Cow.
Record Lbs. and y of Butter from
13 Quarts Of Milk" On the reverse side
OF the stone Mr.. Cady's favorite violin
Is delineated on the granite. Over the
picture are the words; "An ready, Mr..
Cadyl" The violin Ia then represented,
with the words: "At Rest" beneath.
The other sides of the stone pillar
hear the family obituaries, in the usual
farm.

Honest Hoosicrs.

Indiana is fast establishing a reputa-
tion of having honest men. This is at
least proving the case regarding PEN
sions. Three months ago a Morgan
county man named Frank Graves re-
turned to the government 5000 which
had been allowed him as pension and
notified the pension officers to stop pay
ment on his regular pension. He gave
as his grounds for returning the money
and stopping the pay that he was not
worthy of receiving it, inasmuch as he
was not disabled at the time, though
when he made application he was suf-
feriug with diseases contracted in the
war. Now Thomas j. Keith, of Vincen-
mes, comes forward and returns $4o5 to
the government pension department,
stating that he cannot accept it and rest
with an easy conscience. His grounds
for returning the money and stopping
his pension are practically the same as
Graves. 1t was granted under the "dis-
ability clause" and he writes that after
ponderiug over the matter he finds that
he is not disabled He thinks that he is
entitled to small pension, innsmuch as
he is not able to make n good living.
His income is less than $500 year, but
it is, he says, sufficient to keep soul and
body together without getting money
under false pretenses. Postal authori-
ties are having their attention attracted
to strange case at Alexandria. Quar-
terly for the past year $50 remittances
have been made from that point. The
money is inclosed without name or any
word indicating the cause. 1t is sup
posed that some one is easing his con,
science by returning money to which
he is not entitled. 1t is being credited
to the general fund.

WALRUS LEATHER.
Used for Making Wheels for Polish
inE-Other Polishing Lenthers.

Walrus leather is used for making
buffer wheels, for polishing brass, steel
and silver. 1t has a peculiar, coarse
grain that holds the emery or polishing
powder well. 1t takes about five years
to tan a walrus hide. Some walrus
leather is made in this country, but the
bulk of it is imported from England
Leather made from the hide of n cub
walrus would be about half an inch
thick. The hide of an old bull might be
two inches thick. The value of the
leather depends upon it's thickness.
Half-inch would sell for about so cents
pound; one-and7a-half-inch would be
worth $1.40 a pound; and walrus leath-
er, from one-and-fve-eighths to one
and three-quarters-inch thick, smooth
and well trimmed, would be worth two
dollars pound, and side of such leath-
er would cost about $500.
Walrus wheels are made in a va
riety of shapes, depending upon the
work on which they are used. They are
made with fiat face, grooved, cone
shaped, or of any shape that may be
desired, and by cementing layers of
leather together wheels of any desired
thickness are made. Walrus leather is
also used for valve packings.
Bull necks are used, also, for polish
ing purposes. Three-quarter-inch bull
nccks sell at about so cents pound
Leather made from the hide of the
sea lion is used for polishing purposes,
This is smoother and softer leather,
used for softer metals. Sea lion leather
of an average thickness costs about so
cents pound. Built-up wheels of any
thickness are also made of sea lion and

Maine is again to enter the list of cop.
per mining states. The deposits, which
are numerous and valuable, were
worked more than 25 years ago, but a
sudden and great decline in the price
of copper made them Improbable; i'm
proved and cheapened methods of pro-
duction is the cause of resumption OF
work. Copper is a metal with which the
market never is overstocked; although
consumption increases rapidly from
year to year, good copper mine is more
valuable than gold mine.
