Recently there has been organized a
large lodge of the order in Havana.
Cuba, and from last reports 1t promises
to be a success.
Two strong lodges have been organized
in ~Alaska-one, Alaska lodge No. ], at
Juneau, n the second. at Douglas ISL
and, called North Star lodge Nc. 2-the
later gives promise of great success, be-
ing in the vicinity Of the great Tread
we'll mines that operate $50 stamps, run
day and night, and employ about LOCO
men.
Though like all fraternal orders, the
Knights of Pythias made slow progress
during the long period of business de-
preston following 1898. yet it quickly re-
sponded to improved conditions. The
net gain for the last two years was 3d.
500. thus bringing the total membership
up to sos, 500, not including fifteen grand
lodges yet to be heard from-everything
now points to a large increase during
1900.
At the recent convention of the
supreme lodge there vas a large delega-
ton in Detroit from California. 1t came
with a view to secure the holding Of the
1902 convention at the city of San Fran
cisco. 1t opened a splendid room for
headquarters, n dispensed it's hospi-
tality with a generous hand. The prop
osition to meet at the Golden Gate in
1902 was adopted by a unanimous vote.
The committee having charge of the
funds contributed by the order at large
for the relief of the widows and orphans
of the brothers who were killed in the
terrible mine explosion at Scofeld,
Utah, report the receipt of SO. 400. 50.
The endowment rank of the order has
made splendid progress during the BIZ
ennial term just closed. During that
period it has added 755 new sections. in
creased the membership by 21,576. bring
ing THE total roster of that department up
to 64,515. During the two years ending
June 80, 1900. it has paid to the widows
and orphans of our brethren the sum Of
2,420, 91S, which, added to the amount
previously paid since it's establishment,
twenty-three years ago., brings the total
amount of relief thus furnished up to
$14, S65, 1888. Beginning in a very small
way, in 1877, it has steadily grown to the
position it now holds in the forefront of
kindred organizations, a model for
others to pattern by.
The project for the establishment Of a
Pythian sanitarium at Hot Springs,
Ark, received a strong push in the direc-
ton of success at the recent supreme
lodge meeting-it received a we'll
merited endorsement, thus enabling it's
projectors successfully to appeal to the
general membership.

THE GLASS EYE INDUSTRY.

Germany and Switzerland produce over
1000, 900 glass eyes in a year, and a Paris
manufacturer, with a reputation for finer
work, some 800, 1000. They are made in thel
shape of a hollow hemisphere, and thel
utmost skill is required IN forming the
pupil out Of the colored glass. The great
majority of artificial eyes are used bY
workmen, especially those in iron founJ

sparks. 1t is seldom that a woman has
a glass eye. !

"a certain well known Mobile law

Of reputation as a fighter" said a
southern gentleman was at one time
attorney in suit that caused much i'll
feeling. He won the suit for his client,
and the loser vowed vengeance. In
pursuance of that same in the Ian
guage of Truthful James, he one day
went into the lawyers Office and sub
jected him to a TRADE of abuse that
would have caused salt water cap
tain to die from pure envy, such was
his talent in vituperation.
"The lawyer answered him nothing,
to the surprise of two or three men
who were present, but, getting out Of
his chair, began to hobble backward.
His enemy, thinking he was retreating,
followed him up, with more abuse and
threatening gestures.
"The lawyers foot finally struck
against the wall. when he suddenly

shot his opponent.
"At the trial he was acquitted, his
witnesses being the men present at the
time Of the killing, who testified to the
lawyers having retreated as far as
possible."-New York Tribune.

A Cold Might In Cam da

The sky at night Is deep dark blue,
and the stars are like dropping balls Of
fire. so close they seem to be almost
within reach. The northern lights look
as If II titanic paint brush had been
dipped In phosphorescent flame and
drawn In great. bold strokes across
the heavens.
AS you pass the electric lamps you
see very fine particles Of snow. caught
up by the wind and glittering high In
the air like diamonds. But 1t Is cold
night. and You are not sorry to get into
your room. First Of all. you take
blanket or so from the bed, for there
are people in Canada who sleep all the
year round with only a sheet over
them. to such pitch of perfection
have they brought the heating of their
rooms.
After you have tucked yourself in
the stiffness of the night Is broken Oc-
casionally by report like cannon.
Have you ever been inside a bathing
machine when mischievous boy
threw a stone at it? And, II 80, do you
remember how you jumped? When the
walls Of a wooden house crack In the
bitter cold, the effect Is similar. only
magnified. But you know what 1t
means here, so you only draw the
clothes closer round you, thankful that
you are snug and warm. And 80 good
night.-Blackwood's.

Always Face the Engine.

In his prime the late Mr.. John Cook,
the great tourist agent. was a man OF
iron frame. But when years OF rail.
way travelling. which averaged annual
ly some 10000 miles. produced certain
alarming symptoms. he made n dis
covery that may be- worth giving to
the public. He found that tho threat
ened trouble. something spinal. dis
appeared when he no longer sat with
his back TO the engine. He always
thereafter faced 1t, and that the prin-
ciple Is sound will be borne out by
others whom he advised to do the
same. All who are called upon to do
much railway travelling will be wise to
sit facing the horses"

What does 1t profit woman II she gain
the whole world Of KNOWLEDGE and lose her
healthp Young women students, and school
teachers, eager ambitious, and full of en-
ergy, very often neglect their health In the
struggle to gain education. They eat in
sufficient food, and ut irregular hours, they
allow irregularty of the womanly functions
TO be established, and the result is that they
become chronic invalids with all their edu-
cation practically worthless. There Is
plain road back to health for such as these,
marked by the feet of thousands. 1t is the
use Of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery for diseases of the stomach and di.
gestiye and nutritive organs, and DIR.
Pierce's FayOrite Prescription for diseases
of the delicate organs of womanhood. A
cure so certainly follows the use of these
remedies that out of hundreds of thousands
who have tried the treatment, ninety-eight
In every hundred have been perfectly and
pernenantly cured. Constipation, with its
calamitous consequences, which is COM
mon ailment of students, can be entirely
cured by the use of Dr. Plerce's Pleasant

The Future of Our Legs.

Professor Yung of the University OF
Guef. Switzerland, entertains great
fears concerning the future OF our
lower limbs. This sage is of the opin-
lon that within the next thousand
years human beings will have forgot
ten how to use their legs, and that
these limbs, II evolution will not do
away with them, will serve as mere
ornaments to the rest Of the body.
Professor Yung states that at the
present age human beings show de-
cided aversion to personal or physical
locomotion, and this is more manifest
every time a new automatic travelling
instrument Is invented and rendered
practical. Steam, electricity, cable
power and the different velocipede ma
chimes all bear an influence over us
and create n dislike for walking, and
the future generations will likely have
the convenience of Siderable airships
at their windows and electric auto
mobiles at their doors, and these con-
veyances Will be so cheap that almost
every one can own them, and this
means the doom of our legs.
The latter will be regarded as super
fuous appendages, no use will be made
Of them. and who knows but that they
may disappear altogether? But so
much more will our arms develop In
length and strength. These are the
cruel laws of evolution, and 1t will be
due to their FRANKS that future gen.
erations will again resemble the apes.
There will come another epoch Of short
legs and long arms.

SHIAWASSEE COUNTY ENTITLED
TO THE HONOR
Of Naming the Next Senator From the
18th District-Honorable e J Cook
Win be Named.
From the Corunna Journal

From the Corunna Journal.
Itappears. that if precedent be follow
ed, Shiawassee county will be given the
honor of naming the candidate for sena.
tor from the 14th district comprising the
counties of Shiawassee and Ingham.
Senator Collingwood having announced
that he would not be candidate, leaves
the way open for Shiawassee county
man. The policy of the party has been
to give the senator two terms If he de-
sired 1t, II not the nomination would 90
to the other county or If nomination
was made and the candidate failed in
the election, then the next nomination
would go to the other county. This ar
rangement Is manifestly just and equit-
able. AS for instance il the nomination
should 60 to Ingham county this year
to new candidate and he was elected,
which would surely be the fate of any
candidate nominated, why then two
years from now he would be entitled
to denomination and that would give
Ingnam the senator for three terms.
We. however, have no doubt but that
Ingham will cheerfully concede the
nomination to Shiawassee county.
This is indeed fortunate state Of af.
fairs as our county has a candidate that
Is particularly adapted to make the run
and fortunately just the kind of man
that Is needed In the next legislature.
We refer to the Hon. E. j. Cook, of
Shiawassee township. One of the most
important questions to come before the
next legislature will be the one relating
to equal taxation. Mr.. Cook has made
q careful study Of his subject and we
doubt il there is a man in either county
that is better posted on the matter or
one that understands the wishes of the
taxpayers in the district better than
does Mr.. Cook.
Besides being an intelligent man he Is
likewise the personification of honor.
A gentleman that commands the respect
of every man whether he be republic
can or democrat. He has not sought
the Office, being of a retiring DISPOSE
ton, but the Office in this instance, at
least, has sought the man His nomina.
ton would be equivalent to an election
as his manly worth would win many
democratic votes.
The senatorial convention will soon
be held and our delegation should stand
in solid phalanx for his nomination.
And further we would not only have an
ideal senator but his nomination would
add strength to the already strong re-
publican ticket.
