The Troublesome Dust.
From Detroit Free Pres

From Detroit Free Press.
The bane of the ideal housekeeper's S
life is dust, and yet this seemingly insig-
nifcant, exasperating dust has been
study of scientists for century "When
a beam of sunlight enters a darkened
room, it can be seen along its whole
course, says one writer ''The light is
reflected to every side and made to reach
the eye by the dust in the air of the ROOM
We do not see the sunbeam, but the dust
which is illumined by it. AS unimportant
as this curious stuff seems, it plays a con
spicuous part in nature. 1t is what makes
the sky appear blue, and when we look at
the sky we see the dust illuminated by the
sun. Light goes through all the gases
the dust catches it, reflects it in every di-
rection, and SO causes the whole atmos-
phere to appear clear, in the same way
that it makes the sunbeam visible in the
dark room.
''Without this strange, wonderful dust
there would be no blue sky. 1t would be
as dark or darker than on moonless nights
The glowing disk of the sun would stand
Immediately against the black background,
thus producing binding light where the
suns rays fall and deep black shadows
where they do not. It is to dust that we
owe the moderately tempered daylight
adapted to our eyes, and it is dust that
contributes to the beauty of the scenery
The finest dust gives the blue tone to the
sky, while the coarser kind produces an
almost black appearance.
''The clouds consist of dust and vapor
If there be only little dust, all the vapor
is precipitated upon it, and so loads the
clouds with water that they sink in heavy
drops to the ground Without dust the
vapor would penetrate houses, making
everything mold with damp. We should
feel upon going out that our clothes were
becoming saturated and umbrellas would
be useless protection. 1t is hard, in
deed, to conceive how different everything
be if there were no dust. This trivial
common stuff has its considerable part in
the processes of nature, and there is much
Of the wonderful and mysterious concealed
in its flmy particles. -
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1898-06-18

wives know of their reckless waste of
money, however They inherit their an
cestors love for vodka. Their method of
tippling is to get five brethren together and
march to a saloon. Each produces 3
cents, and the barkeeper sets out one
glass. This the leader of the gang fills
just as full as the barkeeper (there are
such men still in Kansas, Notwithstanding
the prohibition laws) will allow him, and
then he drinks one-ffth of the whole.
While the Russian is smacking his lips the
next man takes his fifth, and so on. They
are very just and honorable people and
take pride in their integrity. The saloon
keeper at Hays City who procured grad
uated glass divided into iifths as a special
inducement to the Russian trade made
great mistake. The disciples of Memo
regarded the graduated glass as an insult,
and forever afterward Stunned the bar of
the unfortunate saloon keeper.

The Twin Maids of Kent.
From the London Telegraph.


Crowds of people from all parts of Kent
many even travelling from London by train
or cycle-visited the quiet, remote and
sleepy village of Biddenden, not far from
Tenterden, for the purpose of celebrating
the memory of the Two Maids of that
ancient hamlet, who were the original pre-
cursors of the Siamese twins. In life they
were joined together by mysterious cord
of flesh, and they died on the same day,
leaving their property to be distributed
among the poor of the parish, and among
all who care to apply for dole of bread
and cheese on Easter Day. This benefac-
ton has been in existence for six or seven
centuries, and at present its value is about
G200 year. Formerly the doles con-
sisted of bread and cheese and ale, but the
latter produced SO much hilarity in the
village that it was abolished, and the
charity is now limited to the first mentioned
nutritive articles The bread is made up
in the form of cakes, bearing a rude repre-
sentation of the Twin Maids of Biddenden,
and are generally preserved us curiosities
by the recipients, They are baked very
hard, and are admirably adapted to give
work to dentists by breaking the molars of
those who attempt to penetrate their mys-
teries. The poor of the parish as distin-
guished from the necessitous strangers, are
supplied with ordinary quartern loaves and
cheese.

Mexican Woodpecker's Queer Ways
From st. Nicholas.


Down in Mexico there lives a wood
pecker who stores his nuts and acorns in
the hollow stalks Of the yuccas and ma
gueys These hollow stalks are separated
by joints into several cavities, and the
sagacious bird has somehow found this out,
and bores Il hole at the upper end Of each
Joint, and another at the lower, through
which to extract the acorns when wanted
Then it fills up the stalks solidly and
leaves its stores there until needed, safe
from the depredations Of any other thiev-
ish bird or four-footed animal
The first place in which this curious
habit was observed was on hill in the
midst of desert The hill was covered
with yuccas and magueys, but the nearest
oak trees were thirty miles away, and SO,
it was calculated, these industrious birds
had to make flight of sixty miles for
each acorn slowed thus in the stalks.
An observer of birds remarks 'There
are several strange features to be noticed
in these facts-the provident instinct
which prompts this bird to lay by stores of
provisions for the winter, the great dis
tance traversed to collect kind of food so
unusual for its race and its seeking in a
place so remote from its natural abode
store house so remarkable.
Can instinct alone teach, or have ex-
perience and reason taught these birds
that, far better than the bark of trees or
crevices in rocks, or any other hiding place,
are these hidden cavities they make for
themselves with the hollow stems of dis
tant plants
This we cannot answer But we do
know that one of the most remarkable
birds in our country is this California
woodpecker, and that he is we'll entitled to
his Mexican name of El Carpintero-the
carpenter bird

Strange as it may seem, says the New
York Evening Post, baked potatoes are
still occasionally seen on the table in a
covered dish. Served in this way, they
become soggy almost at once. After
pricking them with fork, as they are
being taken from the oven, they should be
laid on folded napkin on platter, the
napkin folded so that one corner win cover
the potatoes, in order to preserve their
heat without condensing the steam from
them.

When we hear of what some people pay for
goods we can understand why we have such
big run of trade We never intend to stop
selling goods at low prices as long as we re-
main in business, and l will next say that, as
long as you pay big profits you will never be
able to save money, or be comfortably fixed
financially. So take advice and bny tor cash

NEVADA WAR CLAIMS.

If, as telegraphed, the Nevada
War Claims have been allowed by
both Houses of Congress, the PEG
ple of the State owe an everlasting
debt of gratitude to our Senators
and Representative. Especially to
Senator Stewart are the people OF
Nevada under obligations for the
passage of the War Claims bill. For
years with that untiring energy
which characterizes him he has
labored assiduously to get the bill
through Congress, and when it
passed the Senate and was defeated
in the House he did not lose cour-
age, but renewed the battle in the
succeeding Congress with increased
energy.
The allowance of these claims at
the present time will be of incalcu-
liable benefit to this State. Its bor-
rowing power, which is limited by
the Constitution to 100000, is
practically exhausted and increased
taxation would be the inevitable
result, as the present revenue of the
State from taxes on real and per-
sonal property is inadequate to sup
port the State Government. The
public schools are we'll provided for,
as the interest on the irreducible
school fund is sufficient to support
them, but the State University, the
Hospital for Mental Diseases, the
Orphans Home and the State Pris
on must be supported.
The few hundred thousand dol
lars due the State for War Claims
will be very acceptable at this par
ticular time and our Senators and
Representative deserve a vote of
thanks and the unanimous support
of every citizen of Nevada for get
ting the bill through Congress.
