The Health Of Your Family

Is matter of the first importance. To pro- mote that health, it is absolutely essential that food and drink be pure and wholesome.
 The season is here now when most families have bottled beer in the house, and there is nothing more conducive to good health in the summer season, provided the beer is pure.
 There can be no doubt whatever about the purity of the beer produced by this company. 1t has successfully passed the severest tests, and has been pronounced by the highest au- thorty in the world as ''the purest and best made in this country"
 As tonic to brace up the system during hot weather, our beer cannot be excelled.
 Try case of two dozen bottles and you'll find every claim we make fully justified.

An Augusta correspondent of the At
lanta Constitution writes: Augusta
has now a living example that mathe-
maticians are born with the gift OF
quickly and accurately handling fig
ures. He is a colored nan and a la
borer on the j. B. White building, by
the name of Robert Gardenheir, living
in Jones street, above Cumming. Rob-
ert is a middIe-aged, stalwart fellow,
having had very few, if any. education
al advantages during his life, but when
it ome to figures he is prompt and
quick in his mental calculations, and
rarely ever makes a mistake. Per-
haps his best gift is in multiplying.
AS quick as you can set down figures,
say, for instance. like rs times 81, or
321 times 525. Robert has the answer
for you. In several other tests he
showed a most remarkable aptitude for
the use of figures, using nothing but
his mind, and proved to be accurate.
When asked as to the principles or
rules by which he accomplished these
mental answers, he proved by his an
swers hat if he had any such to go by
they were beyond his explanation or
demonstration. In fact, it was evident
that he does not know how he does
the trick. He has possessed the gift
from his boyhood days. He cannot re-
member when he discovered his gift,
but it was evident that it was before
he had natured into a man.

How slate Pencils Are Made.

Slate pencils were formerly all cut
from slate just as it is dug from the
earth. Pencils SO made were objected
to on account Of the grit which they
contain. To overcome this difficulty,
says the London Engineer, Col. d. NJ.
Steward devised an ingenious process
by which the slate is ground to q very
fine powder, all grit and foreign SUB
stances removed and the powder bolt
ed through silk cloth much in the
same manner as -four is boltcd. The
powder is tSen made into a dough and
this dough is subjected to a very heavy
hydraulic pressure, which presses the
pencils out the required shape and di-
ameter, but in lengths of about three
feet. While yet soft the pencils are
cut into the desired lengths and set
out to dry in the open air. After they
are thoroughly dry the pencils are
placed in steam baking kilns, where
they receive the proper temper.

Interior Decorations Show the Most
Giaring Inharmonies.

Interior Decorations Show the Most
GiarinG Inharmonies.
In the October Ladies' Home Jour
nal Edward Box sharply criticises the
interior decorations of Pullman cars
as "A Riot of Bad Taste" that is abb
solutely in~excusable, for the Pullman
Company" he contends, sis a rich
corporation which can have what it
wills. If good taste does not exist in
its furnishing department, as indis-
putably seems to be the case, the COM
pany can and should buy it. For the
same amounts now expended on these
cars, effects of harmony and of truly
artistic drapery could be obtained
which would be a credit to the COM
pany. These cars could have an in
calculable influence on the community.
The new cars which the company con-
stantly builds could, better than an
other medium that l know of, be made
to reflect in a panoramic the
newest and most progressive steps
made in artistic decoration and fur
nishing. They could be made the most
effective travelling educators OF the
public. Instead, they are simply We
hicles Of the worst taste imaginable
in fact, of no taste whatever. As
amazing conglomerations of the most
glazing and grosssst inharmonies OF
color, they stand absolutely supreme.
They violate even the simple canons OF
good taste"

Mexico. The car was invented by Reau
Campbell, the Mexican traveller, and
came about as follows:
Some years ago when Mr.. Campbell
was travelling through the great Ta-
mosopo Canon, he had a seat on the
side of the car next to the mountain,
the rocks of the cliff were within two
feet of the window, and Of course he
could get not even a glimpse of the
canon, as all the windows on the other
side of the car were taken up by the
occupants of the adjoining seats. De-
termined to view the magniiicence of
the canon, Mr.. Campbell returned to
Las Canoas. and through the courtesy
of railway officials made the world
famous ride on board what the super
~Tniendent called his trolley" an open
4 car with seats for eight persons, and
with this ride came the idea that the

Catarrh Is the Continual Scourge
of ChTistsndom.

Catarrh hovers ~orinously over every
city. and nestIes treacheroasly in
every hamlet. 1t flies with vampire
wings from country to country and
casts a black shadow OF despair over
all lands. Its stealthy approach and
its lingering stay makes it a dread to
the physician and a pest to the patient.
1t changes the merry laugh of child
hood to the wheezy breathing of
Group. and the song OF the blushing
maiden to the hollow cough OF con-
sumption. In its whitening grasp the
rounded form OF the fond wife and
mother becomes gaunt and spectral,
and the healthy dush Of manhood
turns 10 the sallow, haggard visage OF
the invalid.
Cough takes the place Of conversa-
ton, speech gives way to splitting, the
repulsive odors OF chronic cztarrh
poison the kiss OF the fondest lovers,
and thickened membranes bedim
sight, impair hearing and destroy
taste.

a passenger car without a top was de-
cided on, and the Chililitli came

itself.
The Chililitli became famous,
and from an observation car went on
duty as a pavilion by the sea, and a
roof garden, for it is electric lighted,
and has an outfit Of Chinese lanterns.
But the ~favorite is also remembered
as a dining car of the tropics, attached
to n special train, that, during meal
hours, could stard still or run just
fast enough to secure a breeze, and not
raise a dust. The Chililitli is the

How "a Pigeon Escaped from an Eagle
which Pursued IL.

"3hC aE1oCu 1t
The f~erryboat Piedmont, from Oak
land. was about opposite Goat island
hen p. II. Schlotzhauer, a pigeon
fancier of Alameda, released five birds.
Among them was a famous flye-year-
old homer. Duke of Richmond, which
had proved its right to a title of no
bility in more than a score OF long
distance fights. 1t probably had never
had such incentive to quick flight as
was presented that day. The passen-
gers watched the pigeons rise in the
air and circle several times, says the
San Francisco Chronicle. Then four
OF them turned toward the east, but
the fifth, which proved to be the Duke
OF Richmond. was seen to 1irt and
drop toward the Piedmont. Presently
the passengers made out that it was
being pursued By a large bird. The
birds were at an elevation Of perhaps
a thousand feet when the chase began,
with the carrier in the lead. As if il
had calculated its chances, the pigeon
dropped straight for tho place where
its master had released it, and, land
ing upon the ladies' deck Of the Pied
mont, huttered through the cabin
door. The sea eagle was so confident
OF striking its prey that it did not
check its flight until within ten. feet
of the ferryboat. Then it wheeled
suddenly, and, lowering for a few min
utes over the stern of the boat, winged
its way back to Goat island. In the
meantime the frightened pigeon fut-
tered down the aisle Of the cabin until
it came to a passenger reading a news
paper. Then. as if asking for protec-
ton, it made up to his side and perch
ed on the arm of his seat. There its
owner found it and carried it back to
its cage. 1t was evident that the
pigeon was too wise to risk a long race
with the eagle, knowing only too well
that such a fight would be its last
