repeal OF duties on wheat, or print
paper and the material from which
it is made, and directing the at

MODERN MEANING OF GUN.
The Word Is More often Applied TO
the Great Engines
of Death.

"The evolution of the word gun
forms an interesting study in up-to-
date etymology," remarked one of a.
party of newspaper men, says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. IA dozen or
80 years ago we all understood gun to
mean fowling piece--a shotgun as dis
tinguished from rife or a musket.
Heavy and light ordnance, in fact all
pieces of artillery, without regard to
size, were known as cannon. That, OF
course, was where people made an ef-
fort to speak English. Out in the
frontier the word gun was applied ex-
clusiyely to pistols.
Nowadays the nomenclature has
curiously changed. BY degrees the
good old word gun has become monop-
olized by the long, slim, murderous ma
chimes that constitute our modern ar
tiliery. We speak of quick-fire guns,
eight-inch, ten-inch, twelve-inch guns,
and the word seems singularly apropos.
They are not cannon. Cannon ilnme-
diately suggests the big, numbering,
black-throated, smooth bores, of the
past. The word conjures up all sorts of
curious antique pictures ~ swabbers
naked to the waist, motionless men
holding lighted matches, frigates
lashed together and firing into each
others ports, Sepoys bound to the
muzzle, neat geometric pyramids OF
round shot in neat geometric forts, the
charge of the Light Brigade, and lots OF
other things too numerous to mens
tion."

MANY DIFFERENT COCKTAILS
The bartender Says There Is No Linn
1T to the Varieties That
Can BE Made.

"How many kinds of cocktails are
there, do you suppose?" said the bar
tender. One man said six, another ten,
while an Englishman hazarded thou
sand, but no one paid any attention to
him. Finally they all gave it up, and
the bartender had the chance he had
been waiting for, says the New York
Sun.
"How many, then?" they asked.
"I don't know" said the bartender.
81 have only been in the business ten
years, but there are very many. Some
years ago when / was in Frisco, man
told men 1 couldn't make one dozen
different cocktails. / told him could
make four times as many. Finally we
made bet. He used to come in every
mcgning, and guaranteed that /
would make him a different cocktail
every morning for 40 days. If failed l
was to foot the bill, otherwise he was to
pay. I got through all right. For 40
days 1 made different cocktail for
him every morning, and finally I threw
in eight more just as flourish.
"There was not, of course, much diff
ference between them, but quite enough
for an experienced man to be able to
distinguish them, and so won. The
truth is there is no limit to the varieties
of cocktail, and I should not be sur
prised TO see an experienced man reach
the hundred mark"

BIIiousnesa.

Biliousness is usually due to dilata-
ton Of the stomach. Use an exclusive
fruit diet for two or three days, fol-
lowed with fruit only for breakfast or
supper, or both, with the ordinary
wholesome food for dinner. Fruit is Of
great use in these cases. Milk, butter,
eggs, cream and coarse vegetables
should be avoided The diet should con-
sist of fruits and grains, with moder-
ate quantity of nuts or nut products.
Fermentation over the stomach atnight,
followed by wet girdle to be worn
during the nirht are hi0hlr beneficial

LEFT IN SLEEPING CARS.
Departing Passengers Are Found
and Returned.

The sleeping car is one of the con-
veniences of modern life. 1t permits
commercial travellers and others who
have to go from city to city to do their
business by day and their travelling by
night. Thus no time is lost; and to save
time seems to be the great American
idea.
But the sleeping car has some disad-
vantages, besides being for most people
very uncomfortable. 1t is great place
in which to lose things. When the
porter rouses the occupant of berth
who wants to get out at way station
in the early morning, the passenger, in
his hurry and sleepiness, often leaves
some article behind him. This is so
common that the railroads have adopt
ed a system for The collection and re-
turn Of such property. The porters, the
conductors and the strippers and the
cleaners each in turn search the cars,
and any articles tucked away in the
berths, under seats or carpets, or be-
hind steam pipes, are taken TO the near
est terminal station. If not called for
promptly they are forwarded TO head
quarters.
Near the Grand Central station in
New York is a lost article bureau. into
which things come from all points
from Seattle 10 Bangor. The list Of ar
ticles on hand awaiting owners usually
includes purses, jewelry. railroad tick
cts, wearing apparel and sleeping
gowns. Sets of false teeth are said to
be quite commonly left in the cars,
while on one occasion the porter found
a wooden leg. An excited nursemaid
once left baby behind in the sleeper;
the little fellow was well taken care Of
by the trainmen until restored TO his
parents.
Many things lost in the cars can never
be found. Sometimes an absent-mind-
cd man will wear off the wrong over
coat. but viii be so well satisfied with
the exchange that be win say nothing
about g. while the other man may be
clamoring loudly. but in vain. for his
own coat.-Youth'a Companion.

LET THERE BE LIGHT.

If there is one thing that is nec-
essary for the safety ofpedestrians
in Vinita, that one thing is light.
The writer ventured out to church
Sunday evening, and encountered
many difficulties on the way. The
night was very dark, and although
having listened to a good sermon,
the effects of which tended to dis
incline us to desecrate that day, 1t
was hard to keep from swearing.
When man walks over a step-off
OF about 12 inches and goes down
with "chug" that jerkes his col
lar clean over his head, and then
before he can get the collar adjust
ed walks off another and bites his
tongue half into, and the next step
strikes his only sore toe againstan
elevation in the walk and goes
down, scraping the bark off his
shins and ramming his hands into
the mud, we think he has suf-
fcient cause to swear. 1t seems
to us that if we are not going to
have electric lights right away il
would be good thing in the cause
Of humanity, for the city to put up
a few lamp posts around in the
bad places. Such nights as last
Sunday night, keeps many people
away from church, and makes
many who go, wish they had
stayed at bone. Let there be
light In Vinita.
