Don't be Too Modest.

1t is noticeable fact that many
items are lost TO newspapers every
week by the modesty Of the people
who hesitate to tell the reporters mat
tiers concerning themselves. The right
thing to do is to stop the newspaper
man on the street or any other place
where you happen to meet him and
tell him you have been ON IL visit,
have relatives visiting you, that your
wife, daughter or sister entertained
guests, or anything you may consider
IA matter of news If you have done
anything mean, of course keep that to
yourself, for there are always Others
to tell it.-Canon City Clipper.

A Party of Hoosiers Lay Claims to
Heart of City.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug go Dur
ing the coming week several score of
persons living in various parts of In

IN indianapolis to raise funds to send
legal representatives to Philadelphia
TO establish their claim to property in
the business district of that city, val
ned at millions of dollars, which they
claim is due them as descendants of
Daniel Pegg, the original owner of
the land
The heirs claim that Pegg owned
$3.50 acres of land in what is now the
heart of Philadelphia, on land grant
from the lieutenant governor OF the
colony of New York, which was later
confirmed by letters patent from the
first governor of Pennsylvania, Will
liam Penn. The heirs believe that

city of Philadelphia by Daniel Pegg,

gagged able counsel to represent them
aud to go to Philadelphia and search
the records for the proofs, In order
to prove the claim it will be first
necessary to secure plat of the
ground, very difficnlt thing, the
attorneys say, and ifS the proof is
obtainable, suit will be filed to re-
cover the property and moneys due
them for rental on the lease. The
clsimants have two or three times

claim, but have never had sufficient
funds. 1t is believed that at next

Did He Understand?

A well-known Edinburgh professor
often became SO interested in his sub
iect that when the noon bell rang ne
seemed quite oblivious of the fact,
and kept the class for several minutes.
Certain restless spirits among the stu
dents decided to give him a gentle mint
SO they bought an alarm cloek.-Ila-
Bits tells the result.
The clock set to alarm at precisely
IL o'clock, was placed on the pro
fessor's desk. AS was anticipated, ne
began his lecture without observing
the clock. But when the noon hour
struck. the. alarm went off with a start
ling crash.
Even those not In the secret appre
ciated the joke. There was a round Of
applause. The professor smilingis

Up to the present Iceland has been
without a Geographic communication
with the outer world, partly owing to
the poverty of the island itself and
partly owing to the disinclination OF
the Danish government to provide the
necessary funds. The Icelandic Al
thing has voted a sun of $4,000 for
the urpos but as the Northern Tele-
graph company refuses to lay q cable
with subsidies from foreign powers,

New wall Coverings,

For the merely pretty bedroom
nothing is more novel than the printed
tickings, got up in fancy stripes. y In
weave and in design they are really
more suggestive of chintz than of any
of the ordinary tickings. They come
chiefly in stripes, the floral designs al
ternating with plain ribbed effects
similar to the dimity and zephyr dress
goods. Quaint, small flowers mark the
patterns. They are especially suitable
for semi-C Colonial effects, and are best
employed when used from wainscoting
up to a low-hung moulding with drop
ceiling above. Again, they may be
used in combination with plain-toned
buckram, or with crepe fibre. Papers
exactly Initiating these printed tick
ings come at half the price; but these
may be matched in sateen draperies.
so that the entire room may be done
in chintz effects even to the window
and other hangings.-Harper's Bazaar.

ters to Treat Women Free During
the Summer Months.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women are
90 because they are suffering from some
form of female disease. By far the great
est number Of female troubles are caused
by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh de-
spair Of recovery. Female trouble is SO
as almost inevitable. The greatest obsta-
Gle in the way of recovery is that they do
not understand that it is catarrh which is
the source of their illness. In female com
plant, n~inety-nine cases out, OF one hun
dred are nothing but catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh wherever located.

oiloloth as a Floor Covering.

A woman who for years has used the
ordinary table oilcloth to owe her
bathroom and her summer cottage
floors says it is the cheapest and most
satisfactory covering she knows of.
She lays it with plenty Of paper under
meath to give it spring and body. Con-
trary to ones first impression, it wears
remarkably well, and is much easier
wiped off and kept clean than the bare
floors. If one has never investigated
table oilcloths they will be surprised

noted lately in a desert camp house.

aqua. AS this naturalist was walking
with his dog he was attracted by its
cries Of pain and terror, and fastening
to the rescue, found the animal held
by three black sticky bands, which had
chafed the. skin to bleeding. These
bands were the branches of a newly
found c%arnivorous plant, which has
been named by Dunstan the "land oc-
topus." The branches are described
as being flexible, polished black, with
out leaves, ~secreting a viscid fluid, and
furnished with a great number OF
suckers by which they attach them
selves to their victims. This uncanny
product Of the vegetable kingdom Is
known to the natives as "the devils
