lor dwells at length on this point, show
ing how easy it would he to inform the
public of the difference between the:
packages If it were not their object to
mislead the consumer. He says in
part: Every one of the packages put
in evidence by the defendant show a
persistent adoption of the size of the
bottle and the label of the complain
ant. All these manufacturers knew,
just as the. defendant knew, that if the
remedy was put up in round bottles or
in bottles distinctively larger or small
er, or if the bottles were so differently
wrapped, as to at once arrest the at
tention of the casual purchaser, the sale
of the remedy in such packages would
at once become substantially reduced"
Citing numerous cases in line with this
opinion, he gave Mr.. Charles H.
Fletcher the injunction asked for and
the G. w. Link Drug Company must
seek new Observation-Disclosures Inquirer.

The Cicada's Drum.

1t is in July that the cicada asserts
itself. 1t crawls out of the ground after
sol ourn Of two years therein, as a grub;
climbs tree trunk, cracks it's shell down
the back, takes a sun bath, flies to an
other tree, and, life's burden resting
lightly on it's shoulders now, as I have
said, asserts itself. It means that the
world shall know Of it, by making a
great noise. The method may be original
with it, but is not it's own exclusively,
any more. The world over the cicada is
copied.
Tucked out Of sight, on either side, the
cicada has ''kettle drum" of intricate
construction and means of playing it of
infinite complexity. The result is rap
id, shrill, whizzing sound that sets July's
moons all a-tremble! Not that they are
done with all their noise in this month,
for they are more numerous and active
in August, but it is in July that they
commence, what for poetry's sake we
will call their celebrating of Queen Sum-

MR.. ROOSEVELT'S CHICKENS.
Under the Shade at the Mckinley Tree
at the White House.

The white house grounds at Washing
ton are noted for their large and beau
tiful trees. One Of the prettiest Of the
younger trees is the little white oak
planted by President Mckinley on the
morning of the first day of November,
1898.
Norris, the old gardener who held the
tree while the President shoveled on the
earth, said that at the time it was plant
ed he did not expect it to live month,
but at present it looks as though it were
good for century. The little tree stands
just in front of the old conservatory,
now being torn down to make room for
the new Office building of the present chief
executive. During the heat of the day
one generally can see the Presidents
two game chickens resting peacefully in
it's shade. ~ -:
Just to the right as one enters the
white house grounds is fourishing
chestnut oak that was planted by Mrs.
Cleveland during her husbands last ad-
ministration.

Blackberries thrive more luxuriantly
in Australia than in Europe or America,
their growth being so rapid that in many
places they are regarded as an agri-
cultural pest. Like the first rabbits, the
original blackberry vines have grown
and multiplied until they bid. fair to

The stove exploded and DR.. Wilkins rush
ed in to find his wife enveloped in the
flames He caught up a blanket, extin-
guished the fire in his wife's clothing
and carried her to the street. AS he was
standing in front of the burning house
he saw face at window on the fourth
floor He knew that his wifes maid had
left the house early in the day and did
not believe there was another person IN
the burning building.
Dr. Wilkins dashed up the stairway
and brought down the woman. Then he
discovered that she was Jeanette Lowe,
maid to Viola Allen, the actress. She had
been visiting her sister, Mrs. wilkins
maid Mrs. Wilkins is the mother of
Odette Tyler, the actress, and her house
hold was made up of actors and at
taches of theatres.
After the occupants were out it occur
red to some one that ex-Alderman Gold

licemen got over the roof from the ada
cent house and brought him out. When
they found him he protested against be-
ing disturbed.
