Water Collects Poisonous Gas.

Here is something every one should
know. A peculiar property about ice
cold water is that it attracts to itself
a large quantity of the poisonous gases
which are eXhaled through our lungs
and pores. The colder the water the
greater It's capacity for holding lmpur-
tiles, and water which has stood during
the night in a close bedroom is highly
injurious to drink.
At normal temperature pitcher of
water will, under these circumstances,
probably contain Qn the morning. from
Il pint to pint and a half of carbonic
gas and larger proportion of am
monia; when nearly at freezing point
it's capacity for imbibing poisons is
doubled.

Short Name Got Him a Place.

N. l.. Chew, of Indiana, assistant
auditor of the treasury for the post
office department. obtained his posi-
>tion because of his name. The fact Is
that the assistant auditor of the treas
ury department for the postoffice de-
partment spends from 40 to so days
every quarter signing his name to war
rants. He signs at the rate OF 5000 or
5000 a day. 1t can readily be seen
that Mr.. Chew can earn more money
for the government by signing his
name than could Edgar D. Crumpack-
er, the Indiana congressman. He got
the job because he had short name.
He can save three or four days in the
month over A. l.. Lawshe, his prede-
cessor, although Mr.. Lawshe was a
very rapid writer.

digestion, continually subject to stomach
troubles, loss of flesh and general weakness,
can be made healthy and strong by the use
of Vogeler's Curative Compound Every
doctor who is at all up to date will say that
Vogeler's Curative Compound will make the
blood pure and rich, bring colour to the
cheeks, and put on flesh where health de-
mands it. Children who have been weak
and sickly since birth should be treated with
small doses OF Vogeler's Curative Compound,
from two to five drops, twice daily, most
satisfactory results will follow. 1t is the best
of all medicines, because it is made from tho
formula of great living physician.

Polyglot Newspapers.

Three curious polyglot periodicals are
now being published.
One is the China Times, which is
regularly printed in seven languages.
1t is published in the capital of China,
and the languages in which it appears
are the English, French, German, Ital.
ian, Russian, Japanese and Chinese.
Another polyglot paper is the Aus.

over the world, and the contributions

which they are sent. AS a result it

of the paper there are articles in TWEEN.
ty-fve or thirty languages.
The third polyglot paper is the Pan
tolodion Magazine, which is published
in st. Petersburg, and which contains
critical essays regarding the new books
published throughout the world. Each
of these essays is printed in the Ian
SuiS" OIL tHe couulfy where the new
book OF which the essay treats ap-
peared. Thus a review of an Ameri.
can book is printed in English. re-
view of a French book is printed in
French, and so on. One number of
this periodical has contained articles in
fifteen different languages, namely,
German, French, English. Italian,
Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, Swedish,
Danish, Hungarian, Roumanian, Rus
sian, Servian, Bohemian and Polish.

An Epidemic Among the Murrcs.

1t is stated that during the past sea.
son an epidemic has prevailed among
the murres of the Pribilof Islands, and
that the birds, which are found there
in vast numbers, have perished by
thousands. The first intimation Of
disease was the presence of birds about
the village of st. Paul, close in short,
so weak that they were readily taken
by the children. Later. dead birds
washed ashore in such numbers that
212 were counted in 100 yards, while
steamers from st. Michaers reported
passing through large quantities of
dead birds. This recalls the epidemic
which has twice prevailed among tho
cormorants Of the Commander Islands.

Telephone Gusts VentriIoquy.

Contrivances have been Invented
and patented for the production Of
ventriloquil sounds on the stage by
means of telephone. The receiver
is placed in the mouth of the dummy
figure and the voice heard is not that
of the performer Immediately be-
hind the footlights, but that of per-
son behind the scenes. VentriloQuists
have varied their performances OF lato
by the introduction of stuffed pigs,
horses, dogs and other animals, which
appear to join in the conversation"
In these instances the telephone
method greatly assists in producing
good effects.

Peculiar 20 Itself.

This applies to St. Jacobs Oil used for
fifty years. 1t contains ingredients that
are unknown to any one but the manu-
facturers and their trusted employees. Its
pain killing properties are marvellous, as
testified to by the thousands of once crippled
human beings now made well and free from
pain by its use. St. Jacobs Oil has record
of cures greater than all other medicines.
Its sales are larger than those of any other
proprietary medicine and ten times greater
than all other embrocations, oils and lini-
rnents combined, simply because it has been
proved to be the best.

Davy Crockett.

One of the most unique characters
in American history is that of David
Crockett. Rough, uncultured, and
uncouth. he was a diamond in the
rough. But his sterling nobility, his
dauntless courage, and his unswerv-
ing honesty made him hero in the
eyes of his fellows, and they sent
him to congress. He was a curiosity
in Washington, where his reputation
as bear hunter had preceded him,
but he stood the inspection and won
all hearts. It was while making his
first visit to Washington. that he met
his political idol, Andrew Jackson.
Upon his return home, be was aske d
by neighbors who had served under
Jackson, if he had seen "O)d
Hickory" When he replied that he
visited the old warrior at the White
House, he was asked what he thought
f him.
General jackson is the finest
gentleman I ever met replied Crock
cit. He knows how to treat a gentle
man when he meets him"
Chow did he treat you Davy?'
asked friend.
"When I went in, he said, Hello,
Davy,' and shook hands with me.
Then he handed me jug and turned
his head while ] took swig. I tell
you, boys; a man that'll hand you
the jug, and then turn his head, is a
gentleman from the ground up"
The part played by Crockett in
Texas war for independence will
never be forgotten while recorded
history lasts. The Alamo and the
name of Crockett are inseperably
liked together. Many plays founde
on his life have been presented to
the American people, but the best
version is that presented by Mr., Ed
Redmond and his capable company,
which appears at Opera House on
Tuesday evening Sept. %, with Mr..
Redmond in the title roe.
