HOW DIFFERENT NATIONS EAT
Idiosyncrasies Of Various People
While at the Table.

The English are admitted by all un-
prejudiced foreigners to be the most
refined eaters in the world. To see q
well bred Englishman go through the
various stages of his dinner is to have
a lesson in the art of graceful eating.
Very different is the behavior of the
Russian, who does not disdain to use
natures weapons when he considers
the latter more convenient than knife
and fork.
The Frenchman will use a piece of
bread in nearly all cases where he
should use a knife. The German, on
the other hand, plunges his knife into
his mouth in way that is terrifying.
The Swede cuts up all his food into
tiny pieces first of all, and then, having
laid aside his knife, proceeds to take
up piece by piece with his fork
The Italian uses a spoon quite as
often as a fork. He will employ the
former for vegetables, and sometimes
even for fish. The latter use of the
spoon is somewhat curious.
The Japanese diner uses chops stocks,
a form of implement somewhat difficult
to manipulate without considerable
practice, while the Chinaman tears his
food with his long nails in a manner
thoroughly repulsive
The Greek swallows his meat in huge
mouthfuls, and would probably devour
a steak weighing half a pound in half
a minute. Taking a very sharp knife,
he divides the meat into four or five
great sections, each of which he filings
into his mouth in rapid succession. It
is not to be wondered at that the
Greeks suffer much from indigestion
When all is said and done, the Eng
lish beat the other nations in the art
of refined eating. Bits
There are II ,00O, 900 Jews in the world
to-day, of whom nearly one-half are in

DR.. w. G.. Shaw, who is in charge of
the institution, was asked how it is
possible always to tell what is the mat
ter with the animals that have no Ian
guage in which to state their symptoms.
DR.. Shaw, who is student of dog ma
ture, said that while the animal cannot
state what is the matter with it in so
many words, it will always manifest its
malady by unmistakable signs. For in
stance, a dog with collie or other pains
in the stomach will proclaim it's malady
by bowling and by rubbing its abdomen
on the ground. Naturally. if dog has
skin disease it's hair will fall out. If
anything be the matter with any of its
limbs it will show that fact generally
by walking on the other three legs, or
/ by holding up the injured member
when standing. This part of the busi-
ness is quite a study, and the doctor
must nearly always depend on his OBJ
servation of the animal for guidance.
Although it has been reported at vari-
GUS times that glass eyes have been
worn by dogs and other animals, at
least none has been inserted in this
institution. Nor have any false legs,
wooden or otherwise, been put on ami
mails here Dogs with glasses are
freaks which have been heard of from
time to time, but they also do not come
within the recollection of the attend
/ ing physicians of this hospital. The
nearest approach to wooden legs seen
( in the hospital are the box splints worn
/ by dogs with broken legs.
! The hospital is not, so to speak, a
charitable affair. Dog owners must pay
fifty cents a day to have their pets
taken care of in the building. This fee,
/ however, includes all treatment ana
operations which may be necessary for
the animal to undergo. The dogs are
discharged as soon as the doctors con-
slider it safe to send them away. Some
of the animals remain but a few days;
others remain for months. The highest
/ bill on record was S43. In this case the
animal was found to be incurable, but
! its owner persisted in having it remain
there to be treated in the vain hope that
ultimately it might recover.

THAT BRASS FOUNDRY AGAIN
@. A. Hays Gets Another Letter
from the Promoters.

Secretary G. A. Hays received
another letter from c. W. Schul-
lenger, the gentleman who con-
trols a brass furnishing factory up
in Illinois, valued at sl5O,000, and
who is desirous of moving it here
or to some other place. His propo-
sition is just this: For the citizens
interested in an enterprise like the
one he proposes to bring here, which
he agrees to work at the start 25O
hands, to buy piece of ground, or
rather the company he represents
will buy tract of ground in or near
the city, and lay it off in lots after
the factory site is staked of, the
said lots to be 200 in number and
the price therefor to be 5000 each.
These lots to be purchased by the
citizens of our city, as an invest
ment, they to pay for them in
three equal payments as the work
advances on the foundry, not to
the company, but put in trust, to
be turned oyer to the company
when the buildings are completed
and the machinery is in place ready
to work.
The lots are drawn for by lots,
and no one man who takes stock in
this enterprise will have any ad-
vantage over others in making
selections for he gets his lot by
chance as plated upon the map o.
the site.
We have interviewed a gentle
man here, who saw a scheme of thi!
kind work at Portsmouth, Ohio, auC
he tells US that it doomed tha'
town as no other agency did and ht
belieYed so firmly in it that he him
self would take stock in a concerl
of this kind here, and he is plent,
able to do it, but did not want hi
name mentioned for causes bette
known to himself than to the re
porter.
We think the scheme a plausible
one, looks so to US, and we ask ou
property holders to think of tn,
proposition seriously and come t,
some conclusion quickly, as Texar
kama is not the only place this con
cern is corresponding with, for the,
have agents at several places offer
ing the same proposition, and i
will be first comes first served will
them.

Will Fatten Them Here.

Yesterday the reporter spent an
hour watching the unloading of
stock at the Pee Gee stock pen.
There we're fifteen car loads OF
mixed cattle, ranging in size from
the sue cking calf to the tough buck
ing bull The cattle belonged to
Mr.. 'Withers of Haldenville, l. T.,
and was shipped here to-be fatten-
ed on cotton seed hulls.
Mr.. L. H. Cramburgh, live stock
agent of the Pee Gee and its leased
lines was on the ground attending
to the handling of the cattle,
There were many of them down
and a few of the younger calve:
we're found killed.
The owner thought he had got.
ten thus far in good shape and sale
he was willing to set 'em up, if al
of his cars proved out as good a
the one, (six in number) we saw
unloaded.
When the reporter suggested
that the stock was poor, Mr.. Crum
burgh said no, that they were goo'
feeders and would fatten very fast
The Pee Gee has poor facilities fol
handling stock at this point, but
Mr.. Caumburgh said he had giyer
orders to extend the track on
which the pen is built, also to en-
large the pens. There will bt
other cattle shipped here to bt
fattened on cotton seed hulls anC
meal.

AN EARNEST APPEAL.

To the citizens of Texarkana
We have made a heroic effort tC
build our church without being
burdensome to any one. We have
succeeded in a marvellous degree
We have only asked a very few fol
aid, out side of the membership Of
our own church, but we are COM
PEELED to appeal to the generosity
and sympathy of the citizens Of
Texarkana to aid us. With moneys
already provided for, and material
kindly donated we can with the as
sistance of $500 build and occupy
the new church. The entire com.
munity is aware of the iminent
need of this building, and if ou1
friends will kindly aid us in raising
this amount they will take from
our hearts and shoulders a great
burden, and enable US to make a
speedy completion of the church.
With profound gratitude to those
who have already assisted us, and
in the full confidence that the
noble citizenship of Texarkana viii
generously recognize our earnest
effort to do a work to which all Car
point with Just pride, We COM
mend to your helpful consideration

on you for this favor.

The Wealth of Cuba.

If Uncle Sam should, in the inter.
est of humanity, add Cuba to his
domains, it would almost double his
wealth. With Cuba under a stable
government and fully cultivated,
Uncle Sam would soon control the
worlds markets for four great
staples-tobacco, sugar, coffee and
rice. 1t seems a shame to abandon
this rich island to an alien race. 1t
is a greater shame for a man to
abandon his stomach to the ravage'
of disease. To strengthen the
stomach take Harter's Stomach
Bitters. 1t is just the thing to
stimulate the appetite. 1t will
overcome dyspepsia, If there is
constipation it will establish reau-
larity of the bowels, 1t makes the
nerves strong and steady, and gives
restful slumbers, There is no sub.
stitute for It.

We are not in favor of any trust,
but where wealth is centralized, and
the power thus obtained is not
abused, there is no harm in it. We're
it not for some individuals, as well
as companies owning large amounts
we would have no railroads, large
manufactures, or any of the many
beneficial concerns which dot all OF
our states. Think of what We would
do if we all had our per capitas and
no more; the conduct of business
would be primitive indeed. Fol-
any great results there ought to be
union, and wealth is no exception
to this rule. Union is needed in al
things. Political parties, business
houses, communities, churches, ar.
mics, ETC., all require union, or lit
tie result is obtained. These lattel
concerns are sometimes abused a
much as wealth, and trouble is thu
direct result. But the abuse o
wealth is felt by the greatest mum
Der of people, and practically defe
all law. Courts, judges and GOV
ernors can't stop it. They can stol
an insignificant labor strike, bu
cannot touch the rich trust, which
is far more fragrant in open viola
tion of the law than most anything
else. A poor man may commi
murder, and be hung, almost with
out a show of justice; a railroad ma.
kill man and get off with simpl,
law suit. Verify justice is blind OF
the side which the rich appear. o.
