After this net two or three more layers

ncnutirui vIennese women.

Vienna, the capital of Austria, is
chiefly noted for producing three things
-ccffee, music and women. The word
'lolly' describes the temper of the
Niennese woman most aptly. She lives
only for today and lets the morrow take
care of itself. She is as good house
keeper as her German sister, but not
quite SO particular. She is quite as eco
numical, but dresses herself more urtis-
tically She is just as good mother.
but more loving wife She is some
what nervous, and the quarrel with her
husband is ms regular AS the amen in
her prayer. The truest and prettiest
type of the beautiful Viennese woman
is that which comes from the south In
common with the majority of her Euro
pean sisters the Viennese makes mar
riage her goal. hut retains her girlish
ways, her Jolly spirit and much of her
beauty, and even to guess at her age is
not only a crime, but an absurdity -

Poison HcniIocIx.

Water hemlock is deadly plant com
mon In most country neigbborhoods.
Its roots are eaten often in spring by
mistake for some edible root, and death
frequently results. Cattle are often poi
soned by drinking water in marshes
where it grows
The poison hemlock from which the
Greeks made poisons is near relative
to the water hemlock. 1t stands from
two to seven feet high and has clusters
of small white flowers and large, pars-
leylike leaves. The stalk, being hollow.
Is often made into whistles by country
boys, and many children are poisoned in

ACCORDING to the New York
Tribune in Burmah a man has just
been fined twenty-five rupees and
sent to Jail for month for cruelty
to animals, his oirense being the
mutilation of herons to secure "es-
preys" for the adornment of wo-
mems hats. In that half pagan
country they have II curious preju-
dice against sowing shut the eyes
and pouring melted wax into the
ears of live birds used us decoys,
and also against leaving tledging
herops to starve to death for fash-

ments make haste to give money

Mysterious Ways of Advertisers.

There's nothing on earth so
mysteriously funny rs an advertise
ment. The prime, first and last,
all-the-time object of an ad is to
draw custom. 1t was not, and
never will be, designed lor any
other purpose. SO the merchant
waits till the busy season comes,
and his store is so full of custom
ers that he can't get his hat Off, and
then he rushes of to the printer
and goes in for advertising. When
the Gull season gets along and there
is no buying, and he wants to sell
his goods so bad he cannot pay
his rent, he stops advertising.
That is some of them do; but oc-
casionully II level-headed merchant
does more of it and scoops in the
business, while his neighbors are
making mortgages to pay the gas
bills.
There are times when you
couldn't stop people from buying
everything in the store if you
planted cannon behind the door,
aud that's the time when the ad is
sent on its holy mission. 1t makes
light work for advertising, for the
chalk sign on the sidewalk would
do all that was needed, and have
rs--h9lf holiday every day in the
week. But who wants 10 favor nm
ADJ II is to build hard work. and
should be sent out on dull days,
when a customer has to be knocked
down with hard facts. and kicked
insensible with bankrupt reduct-
ions, and dragged in with irresisti-
bic slaughter of prices, before he
will spend a cent, That's the aim
and end of advertising, and if you
ever open store don't try to get
them to come when they are stick
ing out of the windows, but give
them your ad right between the
eyes in the dull season, and you
will wax rich, and own fast horse,
and perhaps be able to smoke
cigar once or twice ayear.
Write this down where you'll
fall over it every day. The time
to draw business is when you want
business, and not when you have
more business than you can attend
to. Exchange.

Our Consul at Chemnitz, Ger
many, Mr.. Monaghan, in a repor
to the state department, sounds
q note of alarm as to the pros
pect of Siberia becoming form
liable competitor of the United
States in the wheat markets Of
the world, on the completian OF
the trans-A static railroad.
Mr.. Monaghan's station is a
long way from Siberia and he
probably writes from hearsay.
John w. Bookwalter of Ohio re-
Gently made tour over the Sib-
erian railway, carefully examin-
cd the country, people, means of
transportation, movements of
population, government projects
for improvements, etc. He found
that the government is disposed
to shield the older districts of
the empire from the too violent
competition of new Siberian
lands which willrestrain the rap

possess the Tartars who hold
much of the steppes for pastoral
purposes and will resist agricul-
tural settlement. The Russian
race is increasing at the rate of
2O0,O0O a year; the cultivable
lands of European Russia are
pretty closely worked up, and it
will require an annual increase
of from 5000, to $4,000. 900
acres to meet the advance in
population. He therefore con- |
cludes that for many years to
come the Siberian wheat crop
can have no sensible effect upon
prices in the worlds markets.
And to this the fact that the
rapid Increase of the United
States in urban population and
varied industries will from year
to year enlarge the domestic

wheat farmers need not worry
much about the futu-
re OF their industry, despite con

The real issue in the Anglo

The real issue in the Anglo
Boer question is not the franchise
or redress of Outlander grievan-
ces but England's suzerainty.
President Kruger has suspected
that all along and has sought to
couple with his proffered conces-
sions the remuneration OF suzer-
ainty or at least stipulation of
non-interference in the internal
affairs of the republic. That is
deemed by Great Britain utterly
inadmissable. If war comes
therefore it will be struggle for
Boer independence and British
supremacy in South Africa.
1t is clearly indicated that such
is the real nature of the contest
however disguised by bubbles
over minor issues. The map of
Africa is the best evidence to
that effect. 1t shows the sphere
of British influence extending
from the mouth of the Nile on
the north to the great lake re-
gion and from the Cape on the
south to Lake Tanganyika. Only
the length of that lake and lit
tie corner of Germany's ill-defin-
ed sphere of influence separates
these British territories, except
for the wedge of the Transvaal
driven in across the line. Great
Britain will insist on a clear
course from end 10 end of the
continent. She will fight the
Beers, If they will not yield, to
accomplish what she considers
her manifest destiny. Some day
she may fight Germany for a
narrow right of way from Lake
Tanganyika to Albert Edward
Nyanza. But that is not pres
emit issue.
