One of the results of the investiga-
ton OF special committee of the So
ciety of Arts into the question of book
binding goes to show that sheepskin
is often used by bookbinders under
very different names. They found
books bound nominally in Levant mo

grain morocco, pigskin, ealfskin, croco-
ollie and alligator feathers, NIL OF which
on close microscopic examination We're
found to be the ordinary common

TIE POINT OF TAEl JOKE.

buf He Finally Saw 1t.

max re fInAhy SaW At
A party of Englishmen were In Chi.
cago Sightseeing some time ago. They
were entertained at dinner by some
Chicago EngRehmen who have lived In
America long enough TO have keen
appreciation of the American idea OF a
Joke. During the evening all the mem
bers of the party told stories or sung
songs and entertained according to
their several abilities.
One of the English visitors could see
nothing funny in the stories told by tho
Chicago Englishmen. Every time one
of them would tell good American
story at which most Of the party would
laugh uproariously this particular Eng
lishman would adjust bis monocle to
his eye and, looking wonderlngly
around the table. would remark, But,
I say, l don't see anything In that TO
laugh at, y knaw."
One of the Chicago men finally re-
cited an original poem. The poem told
of an Englishman who had come to
America and after being In this coun-
try only q short time had died and gone
to another and much warmer country
Ten years passed, and one day an imp
passing that way heard the English
man laughing uproarlously.

"Oh, oh. oh, such funny story as

"a story you heard! Why, you've
heard no story" said the imp. you've
been dead ten years"
Eyes, yea, / know. know" cried the
man. but I've Just seen the Joke"
This poem set the table In roar.
Amid all the laughing and shouting
the obtuse visitor adjusted his monocle
and drawied out, But. / say. l don't
see anything funny in that, y knaw."

the poem as quick as fash. "Of

RICE WATER NUTRITIOUS.
Curious Way Some British Ofloers
Dsacoyered This Fact.

Curious Way Some British Ofloers
Discovered This Fact.
II is probable that few occidental
cooks who prepare rice in various
forms for diet are aware that In dis
carding the water in which 1t Is boiled
they are wasting what is regarded by
the oriental as the most nutritious part
of the food. This fact was curiously
proved some years since when de-
tachment of Europeans and native
troops In India found themselves be-
leaguered in fort with insufficient ra-
lions, even Of rice. to enable them to
hold out until force could march to
their relief.
1t was when the officers were serl-
ously debating this problem that the
natives approached them with what
was regarded as a curious solution Of
the difficulty. If, proposed the latter,
the Europeans took all the rice, they,
the natives, would be quite content
with the water In which 1t was boiled.
The suggestion, In place of any better,
was adopted, when 1t was remarked
that while the Europeans found 1t dlf-
flcult to maintain their strength on full
ratlons Of rice the natives lost none of
their stamina by several weeks diet on
tho water When the proposal was
made, the action of the natives was
praised as one of great devotion to
their superlors, but the sentiment was
somewhat Modified when the discov-
cry was made that the natives were
quite aware that the principal nourlsh-
ment lay in the water.
Since that time Europeans in the 0ri-
ent, following the custom Of the ma
tiyes, have given rice water to pa
tlents, particularly in cases of cholera,
as n last resort when no other food can
be retained In the stomach and usually
with coed results. But the natives al
ways value this water so highly that 1t
IL never thrown away.
In fact. 1t would surprise many cooks
to discover how much may be done
with this apparently worthless stock.
If the rice Is cooked in the oriental
fashion-that IS, boiled only so long
that each grain comes out Of the pan
separate and not as sodden mass
the water when strained Off and per-
mltted to cool will become Jelly ap-
proaching the consistency of blanc
mango TO suit the occidental palate
the water should be favored with an
extract or otherwise the Jelly may
have rather an insipid taste.

THE GRIP EPIDEMIC.

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either fatal onset of
pneumonia, or a complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is preven-
ton. By wearing a Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary care) You are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer-
ing from grip, or from the usual win
ter coughsand colds, Benson,.s Plasters
are sure and speedy relief and cure.
Highly medicinal and scientific.
Refuse limitations and substitutes.
