THE WASH-RAG PLANT.
1t Grows on Vines Like Cucumbers

turaI Products.

tion of politicians, is also proud of it's

2 It grows on vines which closely re-
semble in appearance cucumber vines.
Each Of the vegetable rags grows in
side q case which looks like a green
gourd, 10 or 20 inches long. The rag
proper is primarily intended as a sup
port for the seeds of the plant. When
unfolded it is five inches wide by foot
long. It is of loose and somewhat
rough texture, more nearly resembling
crash than any other manufactured
fabric. The vegetable wash cloth is
said to possess the desirable property
Of making the skin smooth and soft.

e. His Eccentricity.

Robert Treat Paine, Jr., was an advo-
cate, of the freer coinage of silver long
before the Chicago platform was heard
of, but what was regarded by his friends
as a harmless eccentricity in 1894, when
he was an executive officer of the Young
Mems Democratic club, to which all
the swell young mugwumps of Massa-
chusctts at one time belonged, became
an unpard enable heresy in 1896. But
he remained silver democrat and was
the most energetic spirit in the Bryan
Sewall-Williams club of 1885, -E.
He is 33 years old, good-looking, pol

Honey Baths Tor Gems,

All precious stones are purified by a
bath in honey, according to an old idea.
Many curious notions are current in
regard to gems, as, for instance, that
the agate quenches thirst, and, il put
into the mouth, allays fever.

Cold water a stimu1ant.

According to a high authority, cold
water is a valuable stimulant to many,
if not all people. Its action on the heart
is more stimulating than brandy. It
has been known to raise the pulse from
76 to over hundred.

REAFFIRMED.

The Anderson law, taxing unused rail-
way lands, has been sustained by the su-
preme court once more. In the case of
st. Louis county against the Duluth &
Iron Range Railroad Company, the court
expresses the opinion that the legislature
cannot make an irrevocable contract ex-
empting private property from future
taxation.

LANDS IN GOOD DEMAND

State Auditor Dunn has found land
values in the southern part of the state
booming. He reports that at the sale in
Watonwan county all the land offered
was sold save two pieces. One tract sold
at s61.25 per acre, and several sold above
$50 per acre. In all about 900 acres were
sold. s--.-
A report from the sale in Wright coun-
ty also shows that $50 acres were sold at
prices ranging from IS to $40 per acre, the
average being 81. All of the tracts Of
fered save one were redeemed by the par
ties holding them. : ~-s'

SINGULAR DEATH OF A DRUNKEN
MAN .'

A most remarkable case of accidental
death occurred in Duluth hotel John
Gustafson, settler at Chicago bay, on
the north shore of Lake Superior, was
proving up on claim, and during the
DAY lmblbed too freely. He retired about
midnight. His partner, M. c. Harvig,
was already in the room and asleep.
In the morning Harvig awoke and
found Gustafson hanging to the hinge of
the door, cold and lifeless. He had fallen
forward head first from sitting position
on the edge of the bed. The back of his
collar caught on the small knob on the
top OF the lower hinge, and he was evil
IDENTIFY so drunk that he could not get up,
and he strangled there. When found his
mead was not more than few inches
from the floor, and he was bent double
How he ever hung there in that position
without slipping off is a mystery. His
face was so black from the strangulation
that it would be difficult to tell from it
alone whether he was white or black. He
was an unmarried man, and had no
relatives in this country
