sousA AND THE CHILDREN.
VsE~r the Big Folks Had Gone He
Gsvo the Little Ones Treat.


Gsv9 the Little Ones "a Treat.
A pretty incident occurred at that
quaint old North Carolina town, Colds
boro, not long ago, which will not soon
pass from the minds Of those who saw
it. Everyone who knows John Philip
Sousa. the famous director of SOusa's
band, knows full well that he is a man
of the finest instincts and love for the
beautiful in all things, as well as in
music. His affection for children is
marked, probably arising in the devo-
ton he gives his own two beautiful lit
tie daughters and handsome and manly
son, now young student in an eastern
military school.
Sousa's band played matinee at
Goldsboro, and before it closed a
swarm of school children stormed the
opera house to the very door. To quiet
them was an impossibility, and to let
them in the house would have broken
up the concert. Sousa sent a messenger
to tell them that if they would keep
quiet he would let them all come into
the theater as soon as the big folks got
out, and he would have the band play
for them. Instantly they were still as
mice.
The big audience was very soon dis
missed, and then the little ones poured
in. They filled every inch of the lower
floor, and the band played as 1t has
seldom played before. Sousa never re-
ceived such vociferous applause, and
probably never any so genuine.
The special train that was to convey
the band to Wilmington drew up al
most in front of the door, and Sousa
and the band quietly disappeared
through the stage door and started for
the cars, but the children were too
quick for them, and when Sousa came
out they flew upon him like a flock Of
doves, took him prisoner and led him
slowly captive to his private car, with
screams of delight and laughter, while
half the town looked on and laughed as
heartily. Within the car the real siege
began. for the children swarmed there
too. Some brought flowers and myrtle
and holly, and Sousa was fairly sub
merged in the floral tidal wave. The
children ruled the hour, and when the
train drew out half an hour delayed
there was a cheer by the hundreds of
men which did not drown the piping
farewells of the little ones.-Boston

Physicians constantly see patients
who would be horror-stricken at the
idea of being devoted to the whisky or
brandy bottle, but who seem to- think
that there is no possible harm in re-
sorting to wines of cocoa or kola with
or without other ingredients. In many
instances these wines contain such a
large quantity of alcohol that in addi-
ton to the stimulating effect of their
medicinal ingredients they produce an
effect equivalent to that induced by
drink of whisky. They should, there
fore, be employed only under the direc-
ton of a physician, and should ply
stefan order them the prescription call
ing for them is not to be renewed in
definitely, excepting under his advice.
The same objections exist against the
employment of all those preparations
of bromide and caffeine which are uti-
lied under different combined names
in the treatment of headache, and very
much the same objection exists, too,
against many of the so-called headache
powders or tablets which are now
placed upon the market for the use OF
the unwary. 1t is true that they do re-
lieve headache in many cases, but they
should be used with caution. You
should remember that a headache is "A
symptom, not a disease, and that it is
a symptom of many diseases, ranging
all the way from so serious affections
as Bright's disease and brain tumor to
the headache. due to lack of sleep. The
removal of the symptom Headache" in
a person suffering from Bright's dis
ease may give such temporary relief
that the patient will ignore the condi-
ton of his kidneys and go to a ply
slcian only when his state is so serious
that his headache cannot be put aside
by these means. and when it is perhaps
too late for him to gain any benefit
from treatment. In many instances of
nervous headache, quiet, rest, suitable
amount of sleep and proper regula-
ton of the diet are what the patient
needs, and using headache powders is
simply postponing the evil day, with
compound interest to pay in the end

In southwestern Minnesota is cele-
DRAFTED quarry where the Indians have
for centuries obtained a soft red stone
cut of which they carve pipes. The
quarry belongs to the Sioux, to whom 1t
was ceded by the United States govern
ment 40 years ago. Mr.. A. II. Gotschan
says this is the only place in America,
and probably in the world, where this
particular kind of stone is found. Many
tribes of the red men formerly resorted
to the quarry, and the pipestone seems
to have been an article of commerce
among them, for it has been found in
Indian graves scattered all the way
from the great lakes to the Gulf of
Mexico. 1t has also been found as far
west as the Rocky mountains, and in
