EARLIEST USES OF TOBACCO
cnn Frinr I'm 1d04 In the Form
of SNUFF.

Tobacco was first used in Europe
as kind of rude antiseptic and pre-.
yenter of infection, and in the West
Indies, northern America and Africa
the inbaling of the dried and pow.
dered tobacco leaf was practiced long
before the herb was known in Eu-
rope, according to a writer in the De-
troit News-Tribune. The same is
probably true of smoking. The use
of tobacco was introduced into Eu-
rope by IA Franciscan friar named
Ramon Pane, who accompanied Co.
hmbus on his second voyage to the
West Indies in 1894. lie was sent
ploring expedition, and reported on
his return that he had found the
satives snufiing this powdered herb,
which they did through short, hol-
bow cane. He introduced the practice
into Europe, but it was not until
i560 that the plant was cultivated in
Europe.
Jean Nicot, who had been British
ambassador at Lisbon, began tobac-
so growing in France in that year,
and through this circumstance the
} herb got it's name nicotine. Snuff
vas first used as relief from ca
tarrh and stoppages of the nasal pas
sages, and the first parsonage to
make the use of it popular was the
famous Catherine de Medici, and her
son, Charles ~, also used it as a
relief from chronic headache. The
great GATHERINGS patronage caused
snuff to be called "IIerbe a la RENE"
1t became enormously popular as a
preventive in England after the great
plague of 1860.

Gan Direct the Vaccination Of Teachers

The recent decision of Judge
Rice of the superior court, relating
to vaccination, will be read with
special interest. The case is one
against the board of education of
Philadelphia and declares that
school authorities have the right
to order teachers as we'll as pupils
in the public schools to be vacci-
mated. A high school teacher in
Philadelphia refused to submit to
vaccination and was removed. She
applied to the courts of Philadel-
phia for an injunction restraining
the board from removing her, but
the courts refused to interfere.
Then an appeal was taken to the
superior court. Judge Rice says
that if the school authorities in this
state have the right to order the
vaccination of the pupils, which
they undoubtedly have, it appears
clear that they have an equal right
to direct the vaccination Of their
teachers.

After Another Railroad.

A meeting was held Wednesday af.
ternoon In the directors room at the
First National Bank attended by
our leading business men Tor the pur-
pose of securing the extension of Sus-
quehanna, Berwick & Bloomsburg
railroad from Berwick to this place.
Resolutions were adopted pledging
the support of the business and ship
ping interests to the new road pro-
vded it will run line to town. Peti-
tions will be prepared for circulation
and presentation to the officials for
action. This road is said to have
the Pennsylvania back of it and if ex-
tended to this place would give the
line an eastern as we'll as a western
connection. Owing to the elevation
crossing at Berwick would be very
expensive and a point farther up the
river must be selected if connection
with the North & West Branch is
made. AS the Pennsylvania practi-
cally owns the old tow path the right
of way and grade awaits the laying of
the rails.-Shckshinny EcAo.

Lives on Milk Alone.

Thcs F. Laubach, a justice of the
peace at Hazleton, Pa, has spent
$2,z36 in twenty years for sweet milk
and he has consumed all of 1t himself
Twenty years ago his stomach gave
out. He liked to eat, wanted to eat,
but when he did eat he suffered
finally the physicians gave up his
case. Then Laubach went on an ab-
solute milk diet. He is on one yet.
AT the age of 10 years he boasts of
being one of the healthiest and sound
est men in Hazleton he has got out
of the way of sitting down to his
meals. When he is hungry he calls
for drink of his favorite beverage,
and he sips as he works. Laubach
has lost all desire for water, coffee or
other drink than milk. OF that he
consumes about four quarts every
day. This he has figured would
represent aga barrels of milk In the
20 years that he has been using it.

An exchange says: A young man
down east bought 1000 fine cigars
and had them insured for their full
value, smoked them up and then de-
manded the insurance, claiming they
had been destroyed by fire. The case
was taken to court and decided In
favor of the young man. The insur-
ance company then had the young
man arrested for setting fire to his
own property, and the same judge
ordered him to pay fine or go to Jail
for three months.

Old Fashioned Fruit Cake.

An excellent rule for an old fash
ioned fruit cake, which comes from
an experienced housekeeper in Ohio,
calls for two rounds of sweet Malaga
raisins, seeded; two pounds of cur
rants, carefully cleaned; twelve eggs,
one pound Of brown sugar, one pound
OF butter, one fourth Of pound Of
candied lemon peel, onefourth Of a
pound of citron, one fourth of pound
of canded orange peel, one nutmeg,
one teaspoonfu of cloves, one table
spoonful of allspice, one tablespoon
full of cinnamon, one pound of flour.
Cream the butter and sugar, add the
yolks of the eggs, well beaten, and
the whites whipped to stiff froth.
After this mix the flour, sifted, with
the fruit and spices, and STIR thorough
ly. Bake the cake in slow oven for
three and half hours. Put pan OF
hot water on the CRATE of the oven if
it is too hot. The cake scorches
easily, therefore, it Is best to place an
asbestos mat under it. A gill of
brandy and Of Jamaica rum are usual
ly added to this cake for havoring.
The cake should be perfectly black
when it is taken out of the oven. Let
it cool in the pan for four hours, then
ice it with thin icing made by beat
ing the white Of an egg in bowl with
a quarter of a pound of powdered
sugar. Let the cake dry for two hours
more after this. Then beat four
ounces of sugar with another white OF
an egg for ten minutes to make a
second icing for the cake. Let this
dry for two hours longer, when the
cake may be covered with decora
tive icing, put on with fancy tubes
Fruit cake should always be heavily
iced.

him out. To accommodate him the

Good Things To Let Alone.

In places where rural free mail de-
livery has been established many con-
plants are made that hunters take
pleasure in using the mail boxes as
targets. 1t may not be out of place
10 call attention to the fact that the
law provides heavy penalty for the
destruction of mail boxes, and that
the safest way is to let them alone.
The fine is up to $1,000 or lmprison-
nient up to seven years for the de.
struction of mail box.
