Jewels form a magnet OF mighty power

ruined in the strenuous efforts to make

RAISED AMERICAN FLAG.
Venezuelan Warship Does This to
Avoid Suspicion.

Port Of Spain, Island of Trinidad
who recently escaped from Ciudad
Bolivar, Venezuela, arrived here yes
terday and established a statement,
under oath, before the officials here.
setting forth that on August 20th, the
Venezuelan warship Restaurador, when
second time, in order to again bonn
bard Ciudad Bolivar, hoisted the Amer
lean flag in order to be able to reach
that city without arousing the sus-
piciOns Of the inhabitants as to her
identity, and that by this strategsm,
the ReStaurador reached the custom
house at Ciudad, Bolivar, and Iinmed-
lately opened fire on the center of the
city, causing loss of life and damage
to property in the quarters inhabitated
by foreigners. The merchant also
stated that the foreign consuls and all
the population in Ciudad. Bolivar, pro-
tested against the actions Of the
Restaurador
Apology Demanded.
Washington, Sept. 24.-The singular
circumst ance reported by the German
merchant in the above cablegram was
explained by the reception of two
cablegrams from United States Minis
ter Bowen at Caracas at the depart
ment Of state this afternoon. The first
dispatch stated that the Venezuelan
gunboat, Restaurador had approached
Ciudad, Bolivar. flying the American
flag. She did not lower the flag until
she was very close to the shore. when
she opened fire upon the insurgents
from her position there, creating great
CONSERVATION.
When the Restaurador returned to
LaGuayara the fact was reported to
Minister Bowen, who Indignantly de-
manded complete apology from the
Venezuelan government and also that
the flag OF the United States be saluted
by the offending ship.
The second cablegram from Mr..
Bowen reports that the Venezuelan
government promptly acceded to these
terms, made a suitable apology, and
the commander of the Restaurador
hoisted the American flag and fired a
national salute.
The matter is still under considera-
ton between the state and navy de-
partments.

FnttenInE For Marriage.

The marriageable girl in Tunis has a
trying ordeal TO go through after her
betrothal to the man not of her choice,
but whose choice she is. She has to be
fattened to the required size before the
ceremony can take place.
As soon as the betrothal takes place
she is taken to a room and there coop
ed up till the fattening process is CON
cludcd. Silver shackles are fastened
round her wrists and ankles, and the
task Of her parents and future hus'
band is to increase her bulk till her
wrists and ankles fill up the shackles.
II the husband is a widower or has
discharged" his first wife, the girl has
the shackles of the first spouse placed
on her, and she must fill them out.
II takes long time to do this. as a
rule, and sometimes it cannot be ac-
compllshed in spite of all efforts 1t is
then open to the future husband to cry
off the bargain or waive the condition.
In the case of a bachelor he takes care
to see that the bracelets and anklets
are not too large-that is, II he is fond
of the glrl-but II he is being forced
into the marriage by his parents he is
a great sticliler for custom. Stout girls
are the more quickly snapped up in
Tunis.

A Mark TWIN story.

Two Englishmen were discussing
with Mark Twain the old topic OF
American humor as not appreciated by
foreigners.
But are the English really so OBJ
tuse?" asked one of them.
"Obtuse! You can't get an idea into
an Englishman's head with a surgical
operation" declared Mark Twain.
The questioner remained in solemn
thought for a moment. Then he broke
into hearty laugh.
"Quite a delicious Joke" he exclaim'
ed. Though of course If you were
to open the Englishmans skull you
would kill him, would you not?"
Mark Twain turned to the second
Englishman. what did | tell you?
He wants to know whether 1t wouldn't
kill him.
The countenance OF the second Eng
lishman was like blank wall.

THE ROAD TO DYSPEPSIA.
why So Many Persons suncr From
This Distressing Trouble.


1t requires about five hours for the
stomach to worl, on an ordinary meal
and pass it out of itself. when it falls
into state of repOsc; hence if man
eats three times a day his stomach
must work fifteen hours out Of the
twcnty-four. After nights sleep we
wake up with certain amount of bod
fly yigor which is faithfully portioned
out TO every muscle Of the system and
every set of muscles, each its rightful
share the stomach among others.
When the external body gets weary
after n long days work, the stomach
bears its share of the fatigue. but II,
when the body is weary with the days
toll we put it to bed, giving the stom-
ach meanwhile a five hours task which
must be performed, we impose upon
the very best friend we have-the one
that gives us one of the largest amounts
of earthly enjoyment-and if this over
taxing is continued it must as certain
ly wear out prematurely as the body
itself will If it is overworked every
day.
And. IL persons eat between meals,
then the stomach has no rest from
breakfast in the morning until l, ., 3
or o'clock next day; hence it is that
so many persons have dyspepsia. The
stomach is worked so much and so
constantly that it becomes too weak TO
work mt all.-London Family Doctor.
