What to DO Until the Doctor


It is very hard to stand idly by and see
our dear ones suffer while awaiting the
arrival Of the doctor. An Albany IN. Y.)
dairyman called at drug store there for
a doctor to come and see his child, then
very sick with Group. Not finding the
doctor in, he left word for him to come at
once on his return. He also bought o
bottle of Chamberlsin's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give SOD. relief
until the doctor should arrive. IN few
hours he returned, saying the doctor need
not come, as the child was much better.
The druggist, Mr.. Otto Scholz, says the
family has since recommended Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy to their neighbors
and friends until he has constant de-
mand for it from that part Of the country.

SOUTH AFRICAN WAR HORSES.
The Colonial Breed Better Adapted
for Service Than the English.

During the present campaign. as in the
Zulu war of 1879. considered attention
has been directed to the difference be-
tween English and colonial horses,
whether as mounts or carriers Of Light
loads. The coloniaI-bred horse is a much
thinner animal, with apparently much less
stamina than the English one. He has
hardly any shoulder and very little
haunch. and the absence OF the former
necessitates the use Of crupper. other-
wise the saddle is on his neck in no time.
There is no doubt, however, that they are
superior to the English horse for the
work that has TO be done in South Africa.
They can stand TIE climate and food bet
ter and are free from tendency to
stampede when grazing that characterizes
the imported animal.
The average height Of the colonial
mount is 14.2 hands. and the price during
war time is S125, but the usual figure Is
about $50. Very few colonial horses are
shod. and in the towns shoes OF only the
lightest weight are used. They are never
used for heavy draught purposes. AID
rarely for light loads while their dieting
gives very little trouble when compared
with the English animal. The ordinary
ration for a South African horse is eight
pounds Of mealies, crushed for preference.
and about eight or ten pounds OF what
is locally known as forage" consisting
of oat hay, grown in the country. Colonial
horses rarely can be induced to eat Eng
Iish hay or oats II the grass is in good
condition very little il any. forage is re-
CURED and they can thrive on six
pounds Of mealies a day.
The colonial horse. the best specimens
Of which are bred in the Orange Free
State. has great staying powers. and u.s. as

acquaintance with the surface OF the COM
try enables him to avoid the snares and
pitfalls Of the veldt. such as ant bear
holes which. with overgrOwn grass as they
generally are. prove disastrous TO the I'M
initiated horse from England. During the
Zulu war it was found that the English
cavalry horses failed to thrive on ire
veldt grass of Southern ZuZuland however
liberal ratiOns of grain were given with
il. and they lost flesh very quickly if they
received mealies unaccompanied b. o-ts

A NEW METHOD OF sWINDLING.
StyIiShIy Dressed Men CleVcrly
PuncO IL Hotel Clerk.


A story that comes from private 6e-
tective agency now engaged on swim
ding case has caused many a good laugh
at the expense Of the too trusting hotel
clerk who was made the victim. As the
tale runs il appears that two weeks aEO
a couple of young men. stylishly dressed
and having large rolls Of money, put up at
the hotel registering from New York City.
They were evidently on pleasure bent. and
nightly daubed the city a lurid crimson.
The clerk referred to became chummy
with the boys and on more than one oc-
casion caught a glimpse Of the fat wads
of currency they carried.
One night a week ago the two staggered
into the hotel One of them. Harry. by
name. insisted on further decorating the
city. while his friend and cOmrade pleaded
that a good nights rest would be about
the right thing.
IN not go to bed" hiccoughed Harry.
II want to paint a whole lot more, ard l
am going to do it,
We'll if you insist on making another
tour. Harry" said his comrdde. ''you
must leave your money here with the
clerk. You will be robbed sure II you go
out with that roll
I'm not leave my money with anybody"
said Harry Pm old enough to care for
it myself Come on"
No; | insist that you leave it with the
clerk"
Yes that's right Harry" kindly vol
unteered the clerk. Leave it here; I'll
put it in the sofa and tomorrow you'll be
that much better of"
Give me an envelope" said Harry. at
the same time taking his roll out of his
pocket Slowly and in drunken manner
he counted out $3.50. Folding up the mon
ev. he put it in the envelope sealed it,
and wrote his name On the back
Suddenly changing his mind, ne put the
envelope in his pocket and reitered his
remark that he would care for the money
himself. More coaXing and persuasion fol
lowed. Finally Harry threw the envelope
to the clerk. and in a fretful irritated
manner babe his companion Come on
As ne neared the door Harry bethOught
himself Of the fact that he had given the
clerk all Of his money.
Here. old man." he yelled to the clerk.
how am l going to have any fun when l
amt got any cash? Gimme back my
money"
No don't do it," said his companion
He'll spend every cent OF it il you do.
Give him a hundred out Of the drawer,
but don't give him the envelope.
That's right. Harry" said the clerk.
you don't want all that $3.50. You'll lose
it. sure"
We'll. give me a hundred then"
He got it and the pair left. They did TO,
turn up the next day nor the next. The
third day the clerk looked in the safe
took out the envelope and opened it. He
found a neatly folded bit Of newspaper.
but no money Harry had thrown the
clerk a counterfeit envelope which he
had stored in his pocket all the time.

country that does not regard its postal
service as a source OF profit. BY extending
its routes and improving its facilities. the
Postofhce Department occasionally operates
at small loss. This fact may be &C
counted for by the great distances to which
many packages and letters must be car
ried. and the large number of employees re-
CURED to conduct the service on so vast
a scale.
In 1865 the United States Government
adopted the device known as the grill"
to prevent the cleaning and reuse OF post
tage stamps The "grilr'-au embossed
rectangle with square points-bTOke the
fibre. and caused the ink to penetrate the
stamp. Four years later a new ink. which
could not be removed. was invented and
adopted.
The issue OF 1869 was a square stamp
in ten denominations. each printed in two
colors. illustrating the progress Of the
postal service The 1-cent stamp bore in
bronze the head Of Franklin, our first
great postal official; the 2-cent, in bronze.
the post-horse and rider; the 3-cent. which
had the largest use. the locomotive in
ultramaTine. and the I2-cent. in green. the
ocean steamer The reduction OF postage
for ordinary letters from 3 to 2 cents was
made in 1888
The Columbian stamps. both in coloring
and design. were the most artistic the
world has ever seen. The Omaha stamps
were scarcely inferior in appearance. Both
issues were called in for redemption De-
cember 81. 1899. The Postoffice Depart
ment will issue stamps commemorative OF
the Pan-Ameriean Exposition to be held
next year in Buffalo. They will be Of the
same size as those now issued. and will be
in the denominations of 1, ?, 1, 5, s, and 10
cents.
The first and second issues Of United
States postage stamps were made by pri-
vate firms in New York City. The issues
Of 1861. 1869. and 1870 were made by the
National Bank Note Company. From 1873
to 1879 the Continental Bank Note Com
pany executed the engraving and printed
the stamps, except the Taylor head Of 1910.
which was made by the United States Blu
reau OF Engraving and Printing. The
American Bank Note Company furnished
the engraving and stamps from 1879 to
1894. when the work was given 20 the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing. In this
establishment. each day. are printed from
"a. GOO 600 to Il. 600, 600 postage stamps OF
the various denominations. They are sent
to the Postoffice Department. from which
they are forwarded. in registered packages,
to all pOstOfIices in the United States.
The printing Of postage stamps is a secret
process. which cannot be witnessed except
by special permission Of the Superintend-
ent of the Bureau, and he is very sparing
of the privilege.
