4 TrnGe Trick.

All cigar ilavors do not come from
cigars. There are tricks in all trades.
y certain chemist in Cleveland does a
large business in selling extract of cigars.
To look at the fluid in a bottle it might
be taken for extract of vanilla or any
brown colored medicine But such an

hghtfully fragrant in Havana tobacco.

There's not bit of tobacco in it,"
said the chemist. Il make it of other
materials. sell it to tobacco manufac-
tuners and there my interest ends"
The interest of the manufacturers does
not end there, however, for they buy
cheap tobacco, make it into cigars flavor
them with the Havana smell and sell
them at higher price than they would
bring without the use of the chemists

Long Hair and Ncryousne.s

The man who runs a certain bathhouse
is full of theories about difficult diseases.
and some of his theories are at least in
teresting. Speaking to a patron who had
very thick hair. he said:
Il see YOU are one of those nervous
people. You had better take pine needle
baths"
What made you conclude | was nerv-
ous?" inquired the gentleman.
II knew it from your hair" was the
reply
How SOP
Because all thick, coarse haired people
are nervous"
"WhyY
"Well. it stands TO reason. doesn't it.
If you overplant a snail patch of ground
you will deplete the soil? It's the same
way With mans head. When a man
las big crop of coarse hair, his nerves
pay the penalty. Badheaded men are
seldom nervous. New York Times.

Parents Rights over Chtldrcn

A father has the right to the service
and earnings of his child while the child
lives with him and is maintained by him
"A right. says Harper's Bazaar resting
upon the parental duty of maintenance,
and furnishing some compensation for
the service he renders the child. How
long this right may continue is open ia
question, but certainly until the chill
reaches the age Of II. and usually durin.
the entire period of minority But
where father refuses or ncglects to
support the child or compes him to sup.
port himself the right to his earnings
ceases. AT common law a mother had
no implied right to the services and
earnings of her child. as she was not
bound, like the father, for its mainte-
nance. The tendency of the United
States. however, is to treat a mothers
rights with liberaIity. especially If she
be widow and has borne the burden OF
the chid's support.

If you do not accustom yourself to
drink water regularly, you are liable to
have the waste products Of the tissues
of the body form faster than they are
removed says the PHILADELPHIA Tele-
graph. Great weakness and langhor on
rising IN the morning are generally due to
large secretion of these waste products
and the remedy is to drink tumblcrfuI
of watcr-either hot or cold-just before
retiring. This materially assists in the
process during the night and leaves the
tissues fresh and strong. ready for the
active work of the next day.

For stomach worms in child mix one
teaspoonful Of powdered sage in two TIA
