A HEART PAIN.

Piercing the left side like a keen
edged knife, palpitation, choking in
the throat, usually accompanied by
retarded circulation, are sure signs of
heart disease. If neglected death is
the result, and if taken in time they
may be cured and the long line of dis
eases which follow in the wake of I'M
perfect heart action may be avoided.
DR.. Miles New Heart Cure is the only
safe and reliable medicine for diseased
hearts. 1t never fails to benefit when
taken in time.
II had spells when I would get ice
cold and my heart would stop beating;
then j would feel piercing pain which
seemed to go right through me, which
would be followed by palpitation and
l would clutch at my left breast in ag-
ony. From the time began taking DR..
Miles New Heart Cure these spells
grew less severe and finally disappear
ed altogether. / am well and strong
now and can do all my own work with
ease"

A Secret Sounder.

Nowadays nearly all high speed tel
egraphers transcribe their messages
direct upon typewriter. It has
been found that the noiso made by
the instrument greatly interferes with
the reading of the "Morse." This
difficulty has been overcome by the
invention of novel form Of secret
sounder, which is simply a key and
sounder mounted IN an ordinary poe
ket watch case. Although small in
size, and convenient for transporta-
ton, this instrument possesses 81 the
-pruct1cat operative qualities required
by the telegrapher in such an appar-
atus. The sound it transmits can be
adjusted instantly, from the loud
click of the ordinary telegraph sound
er down to tick so nearly inaudible
that the instrument has to be held in
contact with the car when the signals
are to BIO read. The outfit includes G
soft, flexible headband of mohair,
which enables TIE watch to be attached
to the ear for secret work, or for EN-.
ployment in locations so noisy that
the click of tho ordinary soundel
would be drowned. BY its silk con.
Quoting cord, equipped with suitable
terminals, it can be readily attached
to OF removed from telegraph line.
In brokers' Offices, where secrecy OF
telegraphic transmission is of the
highest Importance, this appliance
does the work in silence and defea
housekeeping. For military opera
tons the instrument can be used with
the field telegraph, in the tent or
upon outpost duty, without fear OF
giving information to lurking spies, or
betraying the position TO the enemy.
The outfit complete weighs only four
and one-half ounces, and can be car
ried in the vest pocket. Louis

purpose

The public school system, which
was once thought to be amply equipped
when it provided for instruction in
the three Rs, has now extended until
it takes in the kindergarten at one end
and the college at the other. And no
part of the whole course is more i'm
portant than that which takes the
child at the threshold of life and
moulds his character for his whole ex-
istence. The kindergarten works on
plastic maternal. It takes the slum
child before he has been degraded
and brutalized by his surroundings
and develops the better side of his ma
ture until it is strong enough to resist
the adverse influence about him. 1t
is more powerful force for good citi
zenship than thousand theoretical
lectures on civics delivered after tho
mind has been permanently bent in
the wrong direction.

VALUE OF OLD NEWSPAPERS.
DON'T Throw Them Away, For They Ars
in Thousand Ways Useful.

"Dear me-" sighed the perplexed
housewife, 'T don't know what to do
With the stacks and stacks of old news
papers which accumulate at our
house"
"Well, don't throw them away"
counseled her friend, "for they are Of
more value than one would think at
first glance. / have found so very
many uses to which ] can put them in
nv home that make the men folks
save every scrap.
'In the first place." she continued,
cold newspapers dipped in cold water
will clean windows almost as well as
hot water, soap and cloths, and will
not iniure the hands one-half as much.
Besides, for polishing mirrors there
is nothing better than u newspaper
which has been crumpled and rolled
about in the hands until it is as soft
as fine leather.
"After the cooking is over / make
our girl crush some old newspapers
in her hands and rub the top and
sides Of the range. This removes the
grease quickly and keeps the range in
excellent condition If done often.
"Every morning we rub our hair
brushes with 81 pad Of newspapers.
This removes the dust and keeps the
brushes clean and healthy. Also, it
-conduces to their long life and utility.
Tearing oldnewspapers into shreds
Of given length is an employment
[ find amuses my children greatly,
and keeps them out of mischief. What
possible use can I find for the shreds?
Why, a great many. They can be put
into washing ticks, and, if frequently
changed, make good comfortable
bed for a small child.
"They are also excellent for packing
fragile summer things away, as good
as excelsior and practically cost one
nothing. Perishable fruit is laid
away in boxes surrounded by sheet
after sheet of old newspaper will last
almost indefinitely.

covering of them on the floors as
one wishes, by simply saving up for a

"These are only a cew of the uses to
which I put our old newspapers. Tt
would require big book to tell of all
the things do with them, and Of the
many dollars manage to save every
year by simply pressing them into
service"

such scenes DIR. Barton first saw ar d
admired Addle Davis, Of Hannibal,

the way.
Strange she murmured, cit is
mine, also.'
"We will meet again one year from
tonight" said Barton, sat the Cen-
tenary Church"
They did not forget. One year later
Barton called for Miss Davis, and took
her to the service. Talking in whis-
pers, they listened not at all. Before
the exhorter had reached 'fourthlS

posal, she an acceptance. One year
later, only the other day, they were

"Ihey are so tame and seem to have
so much affection for you," said J,
'that it certainly must distress you to
part with them,h
"0h, you have no idea," she said,
''how much it grieves me; but I have

able to raise another flock next year.
There were 500 birds in the flock,

He seid that she had been raising 200
or 500 turkeys every year for the past
seven or eight years and that she got
cher start" as he put it, from a set
ting of wild turkeys eggs that she
found in in the woods. "rhe birds, "
he added, "are much larger and the
meat of better flavor than the ordin-
airy tame turkey" They certainly live
in region of country which is the ma
tural home of the wild turkey, for 1
do not believe there is another spot on
earth where these birds are as album
dant as they were few years ago in the
mountains on the headwaters Of the
Guadaloupes. Even at this time it is
doubtful if there is another locality in
the United States where big gobblers
are more plentiful, but from the fact
that the wild birds feed on cedar ber-
ries, there are only certain seasons
when their flesh is fit for the table.

There appears to be juse ~ 'ni'

method of accomplishing murder,
states the Boston Transcript. That
was fayorite expedient with the
murderously inclined in former cen
turtles, but II has not been resorted to
as much in this. The murders of re-
cent date, that have furnished the
sensational iourn; is with material for
daily grist of grewsome narrative
and illustration, show some variations
of method from the old style, but
prove, nevertheless, that depraved
human nature is the same now that it
always was. Perhaps the utilitarian
spirit enters into the new style of
poisoning. The Quick mails, rapid
transit and so forth facilitate murders
at distance. For instance, it is no
longer necessary to be in the presence
OF the person against whom destruc-
ton is contemplated. Mrs. Botkin, of
California, has just been convicted Of
the murder of two women in Della
ware. In these busy days it is fire.

zion as any other method; it is
scientific, and avoids fuss and bother. |

Why 1t Was Called Rubber.

A recent report from British con.
Sui in one Of the Central American
States gives tho following as tho origin
OF the name rubber, rs applied to
caoutchouc: An English artist discoy-
cred in ITO that the new gum was
admirably adapted for rubbing out
pencil marks. lie wrote q paper on
the subject, and informed his conto1n-
poraries that cubic inch of this sub
stance, costing only three shil!ings,
would last for years. 1t was used for
no other purpose in England than
effacing lead pencil marks for about
half a century after this discovery,
hence the namo rubber" After the
introduction Of the raw material and
the scientific description OF tho plant
by Frenchmen it was first manufac.
tured into waterproof clothing in
France toward tho end of the eight.
eenth century. Later on the firm OF
Mcintosh of Manchester greatly i'm.

featured waterprcofs on large scale,

which waterproofs have been known
