Naval Reinforcements.

Secretary Long shows how the navy is re-
spending to the call for reinforcements in
China by ordering 800 marines to be
sembled from the several navy yards and
hurried across the Pacific. 1t is significant
that these are the first military forces to be
sent directly from the United States to
China without instructions to stop at Nag
asaki for orders. The marines will make
up force of $50 men, as the department
already has given orders for the equipment
of 80 marines for similar service. They
will be sent out on the first army transport
available for the service.

Red Nose Caused By Wells.

Few things, says the PhiIsdelphiA
Medical Journal, are more annoying to
a sensitive woman than persistent red
ness Of the tip Of the nose. This cry
throrhina, as We may call il, IS particu-
larry frequent among women with a
delicate complexion, and Is not often
seen among the pessantry. A Berlin
physician, DR.. Rosenbaeh, believes that
be has fathOmed the cause Of the con-
ditiOn, and is convinced thai the veil
Is responsible. He found that the red
ness was most marked where the veil
pressed most closely against the nose,
and that when the wearing Of the veil
was abandoned the condition, in a ma
iority Of Instances, disappeared. Al
though wells are very soft 10 the touch,
the threads soon become rough with
use, and are then capable Of exerting a
decided irritation upon the sensitive
skin Of the nose and cheek, against
which the veil rubs. The evaporation
from the nose is apt to moisten the veil,
especially in winter, aud then the veil
acts almost like moist compress. The
shape Of the nose is also slightly alter
ed by the veil. The nose is depressed,
fattened, and, in DR.. Rosenbach's opin-
ion, tends to lose its graceful form.
With time this alteration becomes per-
manent.

Knew the Voice.

A dear old lady who lived up on
Marshall street died suddenly, the
other day. Her death was completely
unexpected-in fact, the evening before
she died she had been persuaded TO
speak into the receiver Of a phOnOgraph
owned by her son-in-law. 1t turned
out TO be remarkably good record, for
the old lady had a peculiarly shrill
voice, and as she sang her favorite
hymn into the phonOgrsph the repro
ductiOu was perfect
Now, there is 4 eolOred girl in the
family who possesses all the supersti-
tiOns of her race A couple of days
after the funeral she was dusting the
furniture in the sitting room when she
inadvertently turned the switch that
started the photograph. As luck
would have it, the cylinder was the one
containing the old lady's hymn, and it
rang out with startling distinctness.
The colored girl stood rooted to the
spot, gasping for breath. II was fully
a minute before she quite recovered her
faculties, and then, with yell of Fob
d. good Lawd's sake! Miss 'Liza's

amount Of explaining could convince
her that there was nothing supernatur-
al about it, so she took her clothes and
went. -Philadelphla Record.

another was taking down the curtains
when Polly spoke up.

The burglars stopped as if they had
been shot Polly repeated the ques-

key. The noise OF the parrot awak en-

a revolver, which he had bought only
a few days before, and kept under his
pillow, and made for the head Of the
stairs He pressed the electric button
on the wall and lit the lights in the
hall room, when he saw three men
struggling to open the front door. He
promptly opened fire, bat they sue

then went down stairs, where he found
the parrot in her cage under the piano.

lifted her frightened head from under
her wing and asked;

he could eonscientiOusly.
The recruits were for the most part
volunteers from patriotism or for the
love Of adventure Therefore, when a
tail, stolid, sturdy-Iooking young farm

not surprised to hear him ask:
''Say, mister, are you sure there's go

Lots of it-sure thing" answered
the corporal; and he believed it.
''Goin' TO have the 'leaden hair that
