Soldiers Like Sweet Things.

Nearly all the great armies Of the
civilized world recognize the value of
sweet things in the ration. The Ger
mans. ten years ago. introduced candy,
and particularly chocolate candy, in
the ration. and the British followed
the example of the Germans. It is
well remembered that Victoria's New
Years giftto her Tommies consisted
Of boxes of chocolates. Jam also is
regarded highly by the English war
Office, and / ,4O0, 0)O pounds Of it
have been sent to South Aftica as q
iour-month supply for 10000 sol.
diers. The same liking for sweet
things exists in a army, and it is said
that in the last year one New York
confectionery firm has sent a ton of
candy to our soldiers in the Philip
pines, and in Cuba and Porto Rico.
This is first quality candy, and con
sists of mixed chocolate creams, lemon
drops, cocoanut maroons and acidu-
lated fruit drops. These are packed
in tins especially designed to ft the
pocket of the blouse. The Americas
subsistence department is consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of providing the
soldiers with jam.

Authority attached in England

Authority attached in England to

better illustrated than in the fact
that, although the cabinet has existed
as the real executive power in the
government for more than a century

" unknown to the law. never having
been recognized by any act of parlia-

1t is claimed by an English writer
that the rose OF England has been mis-
taken, 10! these many moons, and is
not the ordinary rose. but the prim-
rose. The older poets, Chaucer, spen.

out. called it the Prfmeverolle. the
first rose. the rose Of spring. Prime

then to primrose. Certainly the flower
Is more essentially English Than the

THE RAISING or osTRicHFs.
Five Farms Now Carried on n the
 UnIted States.

UnIted States.
 There are now five ostrich farms in the United States-two in California. one in Texas, one in Florida, and ons in Arizona. The last named, although the youngest. is the largest and most 6ourishing in the country. It is To- cated near Phoenix. and the Salt river valley seems sell adapted to the Af- rican ostrich No protection whatever is required for the birds during the wiater. They graze the entire year in .he fields. the same as horses and cat tie, and are healthy and thrifty. The man in charge of the Arizona farm, who spent 15 years handling ostriehes h South Africa, says the birds do just as well in the Salt River valley as in Africa, and that the climatic and other conditions surrounding them here seem ss well adapted to their requirements IS those existing in their native home. After the birds attain the age of tour weeks there is little danger Of tSeir dying from natural causes for many years. lt is not positively known how iong an ostrich will live under normal conditions. but there arc birds on South African farms which are believed to have reached or passed the century mark. many Of them having been in captivity there over fifty years. Most people have the idea, obtained. prob ably. from their old geographites when trey were children. that the female ostrich. after laying her eggs n nest scooped out Of the desert sands, GOV CTS them up with the sand and leaves them. trusting to the heat of the sun to hatch them. This is not the fact. The birds always pair of during the breeding season, the male bird making the nest by resting his breastbone on sne sand and turning slowly round and ro4nd. scratching the sand away Witk his feet until a shallow hole is made. some three feet in diameter and about foot deep. The female then lays. usu- ally. 15 eggs. and the birds take turns sitting on them, the female sitting during the daytime and the male at night. except that the male allows tha female about an hour in the middle of the day to feed when he takes hei place on the nest.-.Bosten Herald.

Carea af stnrnmerins.

A very important operation was late ly reported to the French Academic de Medicine by Prof. Jonnesco (of Bu- ehareat1, who asserts that he has com pletely cured boy of thirteen of a confirmed stammer by craniotomy. Ills theory is that the cause of the impedt
 ment is often fiattening of the left side of the head, which prevents the proper development of the skull, and consequently a compression of the brain at the very place where Broca thought that he could localize the fac ulty of speech. He therefore cut away such portion of the tissues as appeared se cantine at that part the dura mater and found the experiment. completely successful. One wonders whether this. .oo, was known to neolithic man, Many neolithic skulls have been found from which small circular piece of the bone has been removed, evidently dur Ing life: and 1t has also puzzled an- thropolegists to assign a cause for this primitive kind of trephining. But if we assume it was done to cure stam- mering all difhcults would vanish.

Londoa.s Strange Fouutain.I

4 fountain of mercury is the most interesting sight in a big exhibition now being held in London, and it att tracts large crowds every day. Mer- sury, or quicksilver, is nearly fourteen times heavier than water, and it must seem strange to see flat irons and large chunks of rock floating around upon it's surface in the lower basin. The mer- eury falls in a constant shower of sil- yer spray from a basin seven feet above the one in which these heavy objects are floating, and it is raised back up into this upper basin by an endless chain" upon which are fastened twen- weight tiny buckets, which dip into the mercury and carry it up, one after she other. The entire fountain is paint ed black, and when it is lit up at night the silver rain sparkling in the electric light against a black background is very pretty. Two and half tons of mercury, costing S2,97o. is the amount used in this remarkable fountain.- Pittsburg Dispatch.

Delft weavors on the Old Sod Turn 0us
 a Perfect Imitation.
 Just year ago some manufacturere of artistic textiles touring in Donegal resolved on establishing place for the making of hand-tufted carpets ot the description generally known as Turkish" or Persian" The peculiar ity of this fabric IS that from it's na- eure it must be a hand production. The tufts are tied by the fingers in knots En longitudinal warps. which are stretched between two long parallel beams. The carpets are made to the size and shape of any room. The de- sign is placed in front and the girls from three to a dozen, according to the size of the carpet, select the eolors indicated row by row, which are tied, then bound down by shoots" of wool en weft drawn across the entire width and beaten firm by small iron-toothed hammers. There is interesting variety and pleasure in the work. and 1t Is such that individual skill and work manship come largely into play. Alto> gether, 1t is just such an industry as 1s suited to the rural districts of Ire land. No steam power is required and khere is therefore no handicap on the commercial side by the absence Of coal. The first years experiment with the Irish girls has proved that they are sd- nirably adapted for the work. The girls show nimbleness of fingers and sharpness Of eye for color and form that have quite astonished their teach CTS and they take to the work with g spirit and cheerfulness quite refresh ing. So convinced are the promoters of it's ultimate success that they have planned out broad scheme that will spread the work all over the west Of Ireland and give employment to many hundreds of girls and boys.-London Furniture Record.

 The first wig mentioned in history was made out Of a goats skin and was 9orn by the daughter of Saul. king of Israel. The first artistic wigs were made in the south of Italy for Gae Gapiniens. who lived in Apulia, ans were known for the luxuries of their toilet. These people were, they say. <he first who painted their faces; thig they did with the juice of straWberrlea- Xenophon relates that little Cyrus, when he visited Astyages, his grand father. whose eyes were framed tn blue paint and who wore an enormous wig, threw himself on his knees and cried 70, mother, what beautiful; grandfather I haye!9 The PhoenicfaK women, who were proud of their hair. having blsn ordered by their priesta to offer 1t up on tho altars dedicated to Venus after the death of Adonis, obeyed but with murmuring. Soon they were =c0nsoled by a Greek merchant who told them that he would give them the means of hiding their bald pateS under Iuxuriant curis. Tn his chariot he had hundreds of wigs Of all colors. Wigs were in vogue in Rome toward the end Of the republic, and so we'll made that, says Ovid, eNo man could know if his wife had any hair at all before she had given him an oppor- eunity of seizing her by the tresses.
