Printing Without Ink.

A company has been formed to con-
troll the process of printing without
ink, by using electricity and chemically
prepared paper. In short time, it is
expected, this innovation will be COM
pletely introduced, and old methods
revolutionized. There is one thing
however that has resisted all innova-
tions; that is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters, which has many imitators, but no
equals as a cure for stomach, liver and
bowel troubles. This peerless remedy
has been the standard medicine of the
American people for the past fifty
years. 1t is wonderful medicine for
dyspepsia, indigestion, biliousness, in
somnia, constipation and nervousness.
1t also prevents malaria, fever and
ague. 1t keeps the stomach in good
condition, and the bowels regular.
Try it, and you will not be disap-
pointed.

Paradise Billed Down"

A tourist tells how he travelled with
a young couple evidently on their hon.
eymoon, and the passengers in that
particular carriage were on the grin
most of the time over their antics.
The bride had got the man she loved,
and she didn't care who saw her put
her head on his shoulder. The BRIDE
groom had got farm with his wife,
and if he wanted to feed her on sweets
or squeeze her hand whose business
was it?
A little old man sat directly opposite
the couple, and he looked at them so
often that the young husband finally
explained:
"We've just got married."
II knowed it all the time," chuckled
the other.
"And we can't help it, you know"
'No, you can't. I'll be blowed il
you camp
81 presume it all seems very silly to
an old man like you," continued the
husband.
docs it? Does it?' cackled the old
fellow. "Well, can tell you it does
not, then. Pve been there three times
over, and now Pm on my way te
marry fourth. Silly! Why, children,

THE NEVADA POTATO.
Bob Davis Considers the Tuber Should
be Classed as Fruit.

Bob Davis, formerly of Carson but
now a sojourner at Gotham, is home
on a visit for week or SO. When he
reached the parental roof few days
ago he wired ahead, says the Appeal,
and his fond mother prepared a meal
which was calculated to apply to man
of225 avordupois, who had breakfasted
in Reno.
The piece de resistance was some
spring chicken broiled in the most en-
ticing style. But when the tempting
foul was passed he waived it away
with his fork and remarked:
"Not just yet mother. I'll let you
know when want the chicken"
He had fallen aboard of some Ne
vada potatoes, and these snculent
spuds, to which his stomach had
been stranger for three years, were
more than a revelation to him. He was
carving them up and throwing them
into a large hole in his face which
could properly be classed as a true fis-
sure. One by cue they disappeared,
while he wore a smile of the most beau
tilted contentment. Occasionally when
his plate was empty, his mother would
make an attempt to get some chicken
within his reach but he said he could
get chicken in New York but not po-
tatoes.
mo such thing as decent potato in
New York. They get their spuds from
New Jersey and the miserable excuses
for potatoes won't suffla. They taste
like old sawdust and pine chips. They
are only fit for hogs to eat when they
can't get anything else, but these Ne
vada spuds, they simply melt in your
mouth and life takes on the irrideseent
hue that really belongs to it.n
"You don't expect to make an en-
tire meal of vegetables do you," en-
quired his mother.
vegetables" he shouted. "Don't
call these vegetables. These are fruit
ranking with Bartlett pears and ban
anas. There isn't a peach in all the
Atlantic sea board that compares with
the Nevada potato. II these spuds
ever hit New York they'd put 'em on
the fruit stands. 1t would be great
scheme to box 'em up and wrap them
in tissue paper and sell them on Broad
way at five cents apiece, that is, of
course, for the small ones. The Martin
Hotel is the only place in New York
where you can get potato that is
edible. He sends to France for his
spuds. am going to gather up sack
of these potatoes and ship to him. No
more French potatoes after that at
Martins"
care you ready for chicken now"
"No mother, Pve made meal on
these spuds and haven't room for an
other thing. Never enjoyed a meal so
much in years. You don't know how
to appreciate Nevada potatoes untilyou
get east of Ogden and then you begin
to realize the gifts of nature which
Providence lays at the feet of the in
habitants of this State.o
The first thing on rising in the morn
ing he grabs potato and starts in
sucking the juice as if it was an orange.

Dan Stuart, the fight promoter, has

The Horse Holds its Own.

That horseless age is at hand has
been the cry for several years both in
America and Europe. The frequent
and confident statement of academic
military men that cavalry could no
longer be counted useful arm in war,
owing to the great power of modern
artillery, hardly less than the success
of the electric street car, the extensive
use of the cycle, and the boom of the
automobile, have made this cry seem
plausible. But as yet, says the New
York Sun, the cry is not justified by
the facts. 1t is true that electricity is
rapidly monopolizins the urban trans
portation of passengers, and that pleas
ure carriages moved by. motors are
every day becoming more popular,
but nevertheless the horseless carriage
is still long way in the future. The
military sharps whose beliefs we're
based on theory instead of practice,
have discovered, through the expert
ence of the British in South Africa that
cavalry is by no means an obsolete
branch of the army. Indeed, lack of
horses has been by all odds the most
serious drawback Lord Roberts and the
British Generals have had to encounter.
At this moment British agents are
securing the world for remounts, and
often paying exorbitant prices for the
same, simply because the cry of COM
ing horseless age was taken too seri-
ously few years ago by the breeders.
But while the current military demand
for horses has much to do with the
present stiffening prices, it is only one
| of the causes responsible therefor. The
passing of the demand for car horses
which caused the ruthless slaughter OF
tens of thousands of animals of that
grade, inaugurated permanent con-
dition, but to-day in New York, Chi
cago, and other big cities of the United
States there is more pressing call for
horses of the better grades than has
been known for years. General pros
perity is responsible for this, and its in
fiuence on the horse market is twofold.
Unprecedented business activity calls
for great numbers of draft horses, and
an abundance of money, well distrib-
uted, naturally increases riding and
driving for pleasure, and the demand
for harness and saddle horses The
bicycle and the automobile have their
places and are certain to remain in
favor, but nevertheless there is large
and growing element that cannot be
satisfied with steeds of steel.

One hundred thousand farmers and
farm homes are now reached by the
system of rural mail delivery. From a
small beginning this system is growing
at rapid rate and has an immense
future before it. Some interesting re-
suits have followed its introduction
one that there has always been re-
markable increase in the amount of
mail matter handled on the routes; an
other that fewer farmers come to the
towns. or rather, they come less often;
another that tho field of the daily
paper is greatly enlarged.

A New York millinery house has hat

A New York millinery house has had
an inquiry for 'blushing bonnets."
Inasmuch as it was the first inquiry of
the kind, and as they did not know
what under the blue canopy ''blush-
ing bonnet was, they instituted a
careful search to find out. The result
is interesting, even from sordid COM
mercial standpoint. The 'blushing
bonnet is known in London, and it
may have its origin there, though a
London authority thinks the credit
ought to go to Paris. 1t is any kind
of bonnet with little spring and
metal clasp hidden behind flowers, and
when the head of the fair wearer of
the bonnet is bent forward with that
downcast movement so becoming to
modest maidens and matrons the clasp
presses on the temples and compels a
blush. There is no chance for failure.
