In the state of New Jersey some
two hundred and fifty or more cor
poratious or trusts have filed arti-
cIes of Incorporation, with a capital
ranging from one million to two
hundred million dollars capital.
Delaware begun to seek such busi-
ness last March, by passing favora-
BILE laws for same, and that state,
too, new has some fifty or more mil
lienaire corporations, of trust ma
ture. 1t is going to be next to i'm
possible to throttle all these trusts,
by law. Money is getting to be
more and more powerful, and the
question of controlling it is a very
hard one,

If congress does not very soon so
revise the pension laws as to make
possible a great reduction in the
number of pensions, it will never be
able to do so. At this time there is
a tendency to open wider the doors,
and then greater frauds will be per-
petrated. 1t is stated as a fact
that men who we're drawing pen
sions were permitted to enlist in the
war against Spain, Unless some
thing is done in a short time the
pension expenses will get larger
than ever known.

Cure for Small Pox,

To the Dallas News: l send the
following receipt from a California
correspondent, which is said to be
unfailing as a preventative anC
cure for the dreaded contagion,
smallpox;
"I herewith apend a recipe
which has been used to my knowl,
edge in hundreds of cases of small
poX. 1t will prevent, or cure,
though the pittings are filling.
When Jenner discovered the cowpoX
in England the world Of science
overwhelmed him with fame, but
when the most scientific school OF
medicine in the world, that Of Paris,
published this recipe, it passed un-
needed. 1t is as unfailiug as fate,
and conquers in every instance. It
will also cure scarlet fever, Here
is the recipe as l have used 1t TO
cure smallpox; SuIphate of zinc,
one grain; digitalis, one grain; su-
gar, one-half teaSpoonful, Dissolve
in a wine glass of soft water or wa
ter which has been boiled and cool
ed. Take a teaspoonful every hour.
Either smallpox or scarlet fever
will disappear in twelve hours. For
children the dose must be diminish
ed according to age, If countries
would compel their physicians to
use this treatment there would be
no need of pesthouses, If you val
ne your life use this recipe, "
If you think it wise to do so you
may give the above to your readers.
Hoping that it may achieve the
result predicted by my correspon-
dent, l am respectfully,
Mrs, Roy B. Scott,
Dallas, Texas,

The city editor was gwen bunch
Of keys some eight or ten months
ago to see if he could fud an owner,
and he carried them in his pocket
more as a void filler than any use
he could make of them, On Sun
day evening, being with Mayor
Hardin, and going with him to the
Beniaman Hardware store, noticed
him pull out his bunch of keys, and
recognizing the similarity of the
store key to the one we had on the
ring with the other keys, told him
we had a key that looked like the
one he was opening the door with,
aud pulling out the bunch found
that the several keys on the bunch
we had was identical with those Of
the Mayor, The Mayor said he lost
the bunch some time ago and had

husbands grumbling and scolding
were often only his way of beginning
a conversation. and he maintained that
if a man We're sulky the worse he was
the more cheerful his wife should be.
Certainly husband and wife should
bear and forbear he says, and the soft
answer turneth away wrath more eff
fectively by the domestic hearth than
elsewhere Then business is often wor-
rying. and the husband coming home
needs and usually deserves to find
there all soothing and calming intiu-
ences But surely 1t should be mutual
kindness. At times the man must take
his turn in meeting irritability or low
spirits with cheerfulness and kind,
gentle consideration. AS to the theory
that the wisest and best course is for
the wife of sulky tyrannical man al

the storm, he does not think that is Ell
ther good policy or real kindness ulti

The skin of a Moune.

One day a naturalist lay motionless
on fallen log in the forest and silent
| " watched an animal at play in the
grass near by. This was a large,
brown backed mouse, meadow
mouse, that had come out from his
home under the log and when tired of
| play had sat up to make his toilet.
| Using his forepaws as hands, the
mouse combed the white fur on his
breast and licked himself smooth and
sleek Satisfied at length with his APP
pearance he began to search for food.
He did not have far to go, for a few
stalks of wheat grew among the thick
weeds near at hand The mouse was
so large that he could probably have
bent the stalk down and brought the
grain within reach If not he could
certainly have climbed the stalk He
did not try either of these plans, how
ever, for these were not his ways.
Sitting up very straight, he bit through
the stalk as high up as he could reach.
The weeds were so thick that the
straw could not fall its full length. and
the freshly cut end settled down upon
the ground, with the straw still erect
and the grain out of reach. The mouse
again bit the straw in two, and again
the upper portion settled down. In
this way he bit off five lengths Of
straw before he could bring the grain
within reach of his paws. These fore
paws were very skillful little hands,
and he deftly husked a grain and ate
it, sitting erect and holding it to his
mouth as naturally as boy would
hold an apple. Our Animal Friends.
