MAY AVERT SUFFERING.
Presidents Order May Give More
Food to FiIipnos.

Presidents Order May Give More
Food to Filipinos.
Manila, Oct. 27.-It is believed here
th2t President Roosevelt's order per-
hitting foreign vessels to engage in
coastwise trade through the Philip
pine islands Will relieve immediately
the inter-iLsular freight situation, as
we'll as improve the supply and lessen
the cost Of rice, in which article q
famine is threatened. The civil COM
mission intends to act at once on the
presidents order, hoping thereby to
avert suffering among the poorer Fill
ipinos. 1t is expected that a number
Of British, German, Japanese and
Chinese vessels will engage in the
inter-island trade. Existing freight
rates from Manila to some ports in
the archipelago exceed the rates
from San Francisco to Manila.
Agriculture in the islands, already
impaired on account of the war,
rinder pest and the cholera, have
been further injured by the locusts.
These insects have appeared in many
tl2ces and are working serious il
jury to the crops. The advent Of To-
Gusts, together with the fall in the
price OF silver, renders the business
and industrial prospect in the Philip
pines gloomy.

Intestinal Troubles.

During last week there were ll6 deaths
in the District of Columbia representing
a death rate of 206 as against death
rate of 1871 the week previous, and 1856
the corresponding week of last year. OF
last weeks decedents Sc were white and
90 colored, the corresponding death
rates being 1913 and $40. The most
prominent feature of the death record
was the increase in diarrheal diseases.
The deaths during the previous week
from this cause numbered Is. A num-
Der of people in Alexandria have been
suffering from the same trouble during
the past week or two The ailment has
attacked the young, middle-aged and
old. While no fatalities have resulted
the young, who have been in the MAORI
ty among the sufferers, have caused an
xiety. Great care should be observed in
diet. Most of the vegetables used come
from far-of' southern points and they are

The Structure of Ferns.

When Towering plants usually make
seed, that is generally the last effort
for plant life. The seed is the beginning
Of the life of the new plant. Ferns,
however, only produce spores for re-
productive purposes. These spores ger
inmate and go through the same proc
ess subsequently that flowers go
through in the production of seeds. The
spores expand when the terminating
time comes and form fiat. green mem
brane. What are then really the flowers
appear on this membrane. AS a general
rule after these fern flowers have ma
tured the membrane dries up and dis
appears. In one family Of ferns, how
ever, natives Of New Holland, named
platycerium, this green blade Is perma-
nent and continues to enlarge, becom-
ing really portion Of the plant. Every
year new blade is formed which
spreads over the old ones. The large
plant is Of totally different character,
having the fronds Of ordinary ferns.

A great many persons are troubled

when they come, as they often do, on

New BiIIs For old Ones.

Not every one Is aware OF just what

for a person with soiled currency. II

how small quantity, and wishes to get
brand new bills, all he has to do Is 10

refuse certain bills on the plea that

An practice the government Is inclined

NV Of clean money on hand should
bappen to be temporarily short, the
clerk will without hesitation hand over
perfectly new and unfolded bills IN re-
turn for money which has been folded
possibly only a very few times.
AS a matter of fact a vast amount
Of money is turned In which could not
have circulated among more than half

n,ent Fear His Dead Patients.

There is doctor of the old school in
bne of the New England villages near
Randolph, Mass, whose house Is sur
rounded by a cemetery. The cemetery
is behind the house and comes up flush
with the road on either side, running
off TO east and west for an eighth of a
mile. Some people might find such
house lot doleful. and surely the neigh
bors are not lively. But that thought
never troubled the villagers so much as
the prospect of going home at night.
In the country towns Of New England
the graveyard at night is still thing
Of terror, an inherited terror. There
are still towns where all the graves are
dug on q line running due east and
west, with the footstones toward the
east SO that the dead may rise face to
face with the Judge on the last day. SO
the doctor is often asked the question,
care you not afraid to go home some
times at night"
And his answer is always the same:
mo. My neighbors will never trouble
me. They all owe me money. New

T,.7ainr and "rom Jone.s

Notwithstsnding the good prices he
raca,ved for his books, Fielding was
always more or less in difficulties from
his reckless mode of living. Tom
Zones" however, was nearly being sac
,IAced in one of his impecunious nus
for the sum of f25. The publisher for
tunately asked for a day to consider II
he could risk such sum, and Fielding
in the meantime met Thomson, the
noet. to whom he told the transaction.
Thomson scorned the idea of Fielding
narting with his brains for such a sum
and offered to get him better terms
but Fielding felt himself partly pledg-
ed. Never did author wait more anx-
iousy on a publisher hoping to be ac-
cepted than did Fielding hoping to be
refused. He was refusedl
Joyfully he carried his manuscript to
Thomson to fulfill his promise. The
poet introduced Fielding to Andrew
Miller. who handed the book over to
his wife to read. She discerned its
merits and advised her husband to
keep 1t. Over q pleasant dinner given
by Miller to Fielding and Thomson the
bargain was made which secured
Fielding, to his great delight, 1900 for
the story. Miller is said to have clear
ed $4,000 by TON Jones'" out OF
which he paid Fielding from time to
time various sums to the amount of
$4,000, beQueathing him also q hand
some legacy.

unhits of the wildcat.

To say that a dog can whip his
weight in wildcats" is to pay about the
highest tribute to his strength. courage
and activity, and there are very few
dogs that would care to earn such a
tribute if they understood all it implied
Not that wildcat is of specially az
grcssiye disposition. On the contrary
ne would sooner mind his own business
any time than fight. SO anxious Is he
as u rule to keep out Of trouble that he
has often been accused Of cowardice.
but he has on so many occasions given
evidence Of the most desperate cour
age that it is doubtful if the accusation
is a fur one. When wounded or at bay
he is perhaps as dangerous as any crea'
ture Of his size.

The ObedIent Child.

There was once q little girl who
found it very hard to wash her hands
lust before dinner. She meant TO be
clean for the table, but there was so
many things to think Of that 1t was
impossible to remember Her mother
reproved her very severely one day,
and she promised to do better. That
day at dinner her mother asked the
usual question, Have you washed
your hands, dear"
Eyes" came the satisfied reply.
Her mother looked smilingly down at
the little ones hands, and then she ut
tered an exclamation, for there was
no sign that soap or water had been
used on them. "Why, your hands are
black" she said. Didn't you say you
washed them?"
"Well, just did mamma, but was
afraid I'd forget, so l washed them
right after breakfast. New York
