something burrowing under the collar
of his shirt, and some one hit it with
marlin spike without thinking that Zeb
was there. too. 1t fetched the bug
anyhow, and so we beat Zeb on the
soles of the feet with the spike, which
is good for concussion of the brain
Before he came to we found the bug
wasn't scorpion, but a locust, and in
five minutes more a whole cloud of
them came from the west and settled
over everything. They had hardly got

continued Whimple, ignoring the insin-

There were enough birds there to
have towed this bark in a calm. They

aside, and made themselves as COM

Tuesdays New York Herald contain
ed an interesting little story of the
holding of 100000 worth of gems and
jewels belonging to Odette Tyler, the
actress, by the customs officials. Miss
Tyler, it seems, had just returned
from abroad on the steamer Lorraine.
and the officials were a little astonish-
ed at the amount of jewelry she had
with her and asked her to deposit it in
the appraisers office until she could
demonstrate that it was not dutiable
There seems to be no suspicion of any
purpose to evade the law. Miss Tyler
says she carried all of the Jewels
abroad with her and has merely
brought them back home again. She
was, naturally, somewhat surprised
and annoyed at the action of the Of
ficials.

Santos-Dumont is not in the least
appalled, by the fate of de Bradsky
and his engineer, who fell from a bal
Icon in Paris the other day and were
killed. 1t is all in knowing how, says
Santos-Dumont, and de Bradsky didn't
know how. If he had, the accident
would never have happened. If any
body would like to see him, Santos-D..
fly from Paris to London, all that per-
son has to do is to put up a $4,000
prize and he VIII fly for it. In view
of his bluffs in New York, most peo-
pie have become inclined to write San
tos-Dumont into the category with
Nikola Tesla-a very promising"
young man.

A triumph in wireless biography
was achieved on the Canadian Grand
Trunk Railroad few days ago. Wire
less communication was established
between a training running at the rate
of sixty miles an hour and a certain
station. Messages were exchanged
eight miles before the station was
reached and eight miles after it had
been passed. This is said to be the
first time that wireless telegraphy was
ever attempted from a fast moving
train. The development of this feat
<means, of course. that engineers and
conductors viii be kept in constant
touch with the train dispatchers by
the wireless system. thereby greatly
reducing the danger of collisions.

Some Of the friends of Bird S. Coler.
the Democratic candidate for Governor
of New York, are beginning to indulge
in day dreams respecting his political
future. They recall that Grover
Cleveland was a comparatively un-
known man when he was nominated
for President and swept the country.
They recall. further that what local
reputation Mr.. Cleveland had he
made, in connection with city admins
tration. Mr.. Bryan. too. had hardly
been heard of outside Of his congress
sional district when he captured the
nomination. Furthermore, Seymour,
Tilden and Cleveland found the gov
ernorship of New York to be a step
ping stone to the presidential nominal
ton, and Roosevelt went from Albany
to Washington. Why should not Coler
be the Democratic candidate for Pres
ident? these dreamers ask. And they
are apparently so full of the subject
that they are already selecting 'Presi-
dent" Coler's cabinet, in which David
b. Hill is to be given the seat of pre-
mier.

In New York the other day the Siam
csc prince was pointed out to an old
lady. After gazing upon the little yell
low man for a half minute with much
interest the old lady turned to her
companion and asked earnestly, 'Why,
where is the other one of him?' Since
the visit of the famous Siamese twins
to this country some years ago, the
word ''Siamese" has had peculiar sig
nificance. We have "Siamese" fire
hose nozzles, and "Siamese" engines,
and "Siamese" bottles, and the like,
meaning that the MOBILES, the engines
and the bottles are duplicates joined
together. The old lady in New York
had this meaning of the word fixed in
her mind, and couldn't understand how
there could be a Siamese prince unless
there were a duplicate hitched on
somewhere.

Taking the factory to the raw ma
terial instead of bringing the material
to the factory, is an innovation just
put in operation on the Mississippi
river by button factory, and it is a
plan that has many practical advan-
tages.
This factory is about forty-two feet
long and twelve feet wide, fitted with
all the necessary machinery for the
manufacture of buttons, and provided
with three-horse-power engine for
its work.
The principal material used by this
factory is mussel shells, which are
found at nearly all points along the
river, and one of the great expenses
in conducting the business heretofore
has been the cost Of transporting the
shells. Now the factory has reversed
the operation and will go to the mus
sells.
When a bed Of shells is found the
boat will drop its anchor and go to
work. When the bed is exhausted 1t
will move on to a new location. In
this fashion it will go from state to
state, from Minnesota to Louisiana,
passing along with the seasons, and
always enjoying the most desirable
weather of the Mississippi valley.

Birth-marks which mark and
mar the outside of the body are a
grief to every mother whose chill
dren may bear them. But tor every
child who bears a birth-mark on
the skin there are many who bear
an indelible b;rth-mark on the
mind. Nervous mothers have ner
vous children, and many a man
and woman owes an irritable and
Respondent temperament to those
days of dread when the mother
waited the hour of her maternity.
The use Of DR.. Pierce's Favorite

comes a buoyancy of spirits and
quietness Of mind, which is one of
the happiest gifts mother can be-
