CrystaIlized Bean.

Make saturated solution of com.
mon soda in water. When the crys.
tails stop dissolving, although the
water is stirred repeatedly, the fluid
is ready for use. Pour the clear fluid
in another glass in which you are
going to try the experiment. Fasten
lima bean to piece of cord and the
other end of it to a match or small
piece of wood. Tie a non-porous OBJ
ject (for instance glass balD to the
same stick and immerse both bean
and glass ball in the solution. Let
the solution stand, and in a little
while peculiar crystallization will
form. Needlelike sticks of soda ap-
pear on the bean and cover it com.
pletely, giving 1t the appearance of a
porcupine. The bean has completely
disappeared, while the other object,
the glass ball. has not changed at all.
The cause of the crystallization is in
the porousness of the bean; that is, 1t
absorbs the water. and the soda con-
tanned in the solution, not being able
to soak into the bean, settles on the
outside of it. forming the crystal
needles described above, while the
glass ball, not being porous, does not
take up any water. and therefore
causes no crystallization.

Remedy for Hiccoughs
Simple and Effective

"Yawning is about the best cure
Know of for tie hiccoughs," said an
observant man in the New Orleans
Times-Democrat. "and ! have STUN
bled on the truth quite by ac-
cident. 1t was proved in my case a
sure cure, and by reflection l am con-
WINGED that it is a perfectly logical re-
suit, result explainable, too, en- phys
fcal grounds.
All kinds of remedies are resorted
to by men who suffer periodically with
hiccoughs. like stopping the ears and
drinking a glass of water slowly and
without stop, or by holding the
breath, or counting, or thinking in
tently on some subject, and in many
other ways. have tried all of these
remedies, and at times have been fair
ly successful in checking the hic-
coughs. Again, | have seen each one
OF these remedies fail. In my own ex-
perience, so far as these remedies are
concerned. drinking a glass of water
slowly and without breathing is the
most satisfactory. But it is torturing
enough. On the other hand, the yawn
Is not only efiicacious. but it is abso-
lutely without any of the torturing
features. There is. as said before,
probably a good physical reason for
the yawn being good remedy for
the hiccoughs. The hiccoughs is de-
scribed as being a modified respira-

tory movement. a spasmodic inspira-
ton. consisting of a contraction of the
diaphragm, accompanied with closure
of the CLOTHS, so that further entrance
of air is prevented. The impulse OF
the column of air entering and strik-
ing upon the closed glottis produces
the sound peculiar to tie ailment. 1t
is reasonable to assume that anything
that would relieve the contracted
state of the diaphragm, and would re-
open the closed CLOTHS, or partially
open it, SO the air could enter in nor
NAL way, would completely relieve the
situation. 1t would seem that the
yown, which is nothing more than a
deep. long breath. would bring about
this result. While the yawn Is sup
posed to be an involuntary movement,
due to drowsiness, it is yet fact that
man can yawn at pleasure. This
being true, it is easily within mans
power to cure the hiccoughs by resort
ing to the very simple practice of
yawning. OF course | cannot say that
in all cases of hiccoughs the yawn
will prove good rem edy. But l be-
lieve in all ordinary cases, where the
annoyance is net aggravated, the
yawn will do the work. At any rate,
my own experience has convinced me
of the fact, and. besides, there are the
physical conditions to which have re-

How NaVieS of the World
Will Compare in Year 1906

From the German naval year book
for 1902, commonly called THE Nauti-
cus," is taken the following summary
of the navies of the world according
to the latest statistics. To enable the
reader to draw proper comparison
between England and the other pow
ers the year 1906 is selected, when the
French and Russian programs will be
carried out, as well as the new addi-
tions voted in other states this year.
Only battle-ships and large cruisers
of over 5000 tons which were not
launched prior to 1882 and 1884 re-
spectively are taken into considera-
tion. According to this reckoning. in
1906 England will have fifty-seven
battleships. fifty-two Of them over 10.-
0OU tons, with an aggregate displace-
ment 765.65O tons, and seventy
large cruisers. twenty-nine protected.
with an aggregate displacement of
648, ,440 tons. France will have thirty
two battleships, twenty-three over 10,-
OUO tons. totaling 349,720 tons, and
twenty-eight cruisers. twenty-three
protected, of 243,171 tons. Russia
will have twenty-five battleships, nine

AN ANTl.TREAT LEAGUE.
irish Organization Looks for Recruits
In This Country.

irish Organization Looks for Recruits
In This Country.
In Ireland an anti-treating league
has been formed. 1t has taken st.
Patrick for its patron, and it induced
the last convention Of the Gaelic
league held in Dublin to indorse its
efforts as tending to eradicate zone
of the most prolific sources of intern
perance and q national evil"
The league does not attempt to
hinder anybody from taking drink
himself IL he pays for 1t, though it
qualities this by making its members
promise mot to be guilty Of the sin
of intemperance." But the chief pledge
that would-be members must take is
mot to take treat from another. nor
to give one himself in any place
where drink is sold, whether public
house, bar, hotel, or sheebeen."
The pledge does not hinder mem
ber from offering drink to friends In
his own house nor from taking one
himself at the house Of friend. 1t
does not prevent him from buying a
drink for himself. 1t only bars buy
ing drinks for others.
In token of these principles mem
bers are requested to wear the badge
Of the league, shamrock leaf In green
enamel with three small shields bear
ing the three initials Of the Celtic
title Of the league. Total abstainers
may wear cream-colored shields. AL

Children of the West.

The children of the frontier to-day
live a much more civilized life than
formerly. but still more rough than
the city-bred child can fancy. In
many of the small towns of the south
west frontier the whites and the In
dlans are on friendly terms, and
schools have been established, yet
miniature wars are often on between
the youngsters which keep the village
police busy. These battles are usually
the outcome OF games, which are
rough and wild. writes the Detroit
News-Tribune. Pony-riding races and
races of all kinds are leading feat
nres for the boys. while the girls play
marbles and similar games with
them. Picnics are every-week events
during the summer The boys are
taught to swim at six or seven years
Of age. and they spend good portion
OF their time on the creek and river
banks during vacation.
But the children as they are grow
ing up are infused with the spirit Of
the frontier. They are taught un-
knowingly how to hustle" and it
seems a part of their nature to be
brave and honest. The boys either
go into business or farming, few of
them ever going East or entering the
professions.

instance. in this way: One shirt, two
collars, two pairs of cuffs. He will go
into saloon when there is rush on
in order to further minimize the pos
sibilities of the barkeepers detecting
the scribbling on the bill, and will call
for drink.
"The money is put in the drawer. the
man gets his drink and his change,
and walks out. Directly his partner
tenders 81 bill in payment. The bar
keeper throws out 95 cents in change.
You made a mistake, old man. the
purchaser will say. I gave you. IS
bill" A polite wrangle follows. The
fellow is insistent, says he only had
one piece of money and that was S.
bill, and he remembers to have
the back of it. He calls for the boss,
tells him of the dispute and asks him
to see if he has a S. bill with 'one
shirt, two collars, two pairs cuffs
written on 1t in pencil. Sure enough
the bill is found, and the man gets
his $4.95 in change. This is the scheme
they worked on the man downtown,
swindled until he thought over it for
some time, and then the whole plot
dawned on him. 1t is clever scheme,
but one that will not last, as bar
keepers are awfully quick to get on to
tricks of this sort."-New Orleans

Latest Flim-Flam Scheme

the criminal classes are quite as ac-

worked with paper money. A 81 and a

but the two men who worked the

Neatne., in YOUNG cjrJ.,

Neatness is good thing for . girl.
and II she does not learn it when
young she never will. 1t takes great
deal more neatness to make a girl
look well than 1t does to make q boy
look passable. Not because boy, to
start with. is better looking than a
girl. but his clothes are of different
sort, not SO many colors in them, and
people do not expect q boy to look as
pretty as a girl. A girl that is not
neatly dressed is called sloven. and
no one likes to look at her. Her face
may be pretty, and her eyes bright,
but If there is spot of dirt on her
cheek, and her finger ends are black
with ink, and her shoes are not laced
or buttoned. and her skirt is torn. she
cannot be liked. Learn to be neat.
