Birds as They Fly.

No bird can fly for any appreciable
distance tail first. The nearest ap-
proach to such movement is shown in
the tumbler pigeon when that bird
slews his wings forward and, suddenly
turning back his head, throws a somer-
sault, but this is not true backward
flight.
When a bird wishes to reverse its
motion it tits it's body literally, as a
railway carriage would be tilted in
taking a curve, or increases the number
OF beats given by one wing as COM
pared with the other or keeps one wing
extended while the other Is partially
fiexed. But bird can no more fly
backward than a ship can sail astern.
Some birds, however, and particular
" the albatrOss, can fly half upside
dOwn-that is, with the wings pointed
in a direction nearly perpendicular to
the sea-and when turning quickly in
this position the appearance is some
times almost as though the bird were
using its wings in a backward direc-
| ton. though their structure is not really
adapted to any such movement, and
! when poised, facing a strong wind,
! birds may seem to move astern.

BIT OF FRENCH HISTORY.
An Empire Lost For Want of the
Right Sort of Riding Habit.

An Empire Lost For Want of the
Right Sort of Riding Habit.
An old legend which makes no pre-
tense to truth tells how a kingdom was
lost for want Of a horseshoe nail But
a volume Of sober historical and bio
graphical purpose, written by Count
dHerrisOn, makes it appear that the
Empress Eugenie, after the battle OF
Sedan, lost the chance to preserve the
empire of her husband by not possess
ing exactly the right sort of riding
habit. 1t was the evening of Sept. 8,
1870.
The news of the surrender of the
French army and of the Emperor Ma
poleOn at Sedan had spread about Par
Is. The city was excited, and there
was talk of a revolution and the ban
Ishment of the imperial family. At
this juncture Emile de Girardin, a man
who was trusted by the empress and
who had had no little experience dur
Ing the previous changes of govern
ment, arrived at the palace of the Tui-
leries. IF your majesty were to appear
on horseback in the midst of the peO-
ple," Girardin said, land announce the
abdicatiOn Of the emperor in favor Of
the prince imperial, your own assump-
ton of the title Of empress regent and
the appointment of Theirs as prime
minister, the empire might be saved.
Something must be done to turn the
tide"
The empress accepted the advice. But

THE,
new YORK WORLD
THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.
THE,
Read wherever the English Language
il spoken.

The Thrice-a-Week World was brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of ap-
proval on the Thrice-a-Week World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritory of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1903, will make
its news service, if possible, more eXten-
sive than ever All events of Importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns,
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular sub
scrption price is only $1.0O per year and
this pays for 1856 papers. We offer this un
equaled newspaper and THE SMYRNA TINES
together one year for $1.75. The regular
subscription price of the two papers is $500

Rnssetti and whistIer.

Dante Gabriel ROssetti once showed
Whistler a sketch for a painting and
asked him how he liked it. 1T has
good points," said Whistler. Go
ahead with it by all means"
A few weeks later he asked how the
work was progressing. "All right"
answered ROssetti cheerfully. I've
ordered stunning frame for it."
Happening in at ROssetti's in Cheyne
Walk, Whistler asked to see the can
vas, which was brought out beauti-
fully framed.
you've done nothing to it since
saw 1t, have yeu?' said Whistler.
NO" replied Rossetti, "but I've writ
ten a sonnet on the subject if you
would like to hear it,"
The former of course assented, and
the poet-painter thereupOn recited some
lines of peculiar tenderness and mel
ody. They were barely ended when
| Whistler broke in with:
"Rossetti, put the sonnet in the

Indian Tribes Of the South.

The Cherokees, as far back as the
whites have any knowledge of them,
occupied portions of northeast Ala
bama, southeast Tennessee, western
North Carolina and a portion Of north
west Georgia. They were essentially
a hill people and their homes were
among the mountain ranges. The
Choctaws, on the contrary, occupied the
comparatively level regions of middle
west Alabama and eastern Mississippi.
Between them and the Cherokees were
the Creeks on the northwest and the
Chickasaws on the north. The Chero-
KEGS and ChOctaws were widely sepa-
rated and were never neighbOrs, at
least in historic times.-MOntgomer

AFTER mature consultation in per-
son and by mail with members of both
the senate and the house of representa-
tives President Roosevelt has abandon
ed the suggestion that congress be
called into extraordinary session in
October. The extraordinary session,
which he announced many months ago
would be held in this fall, will be cal
led, according to present plans, to
meet on November 8, which was the
date tentatively fixed some time ago.
1t is not expected that the formal call
for the session will be issued until af
ter the president shall have returned
to Washington.
No definite agreement yet has been
reached as to the character of the
financial legislation which may be
enacted at the approaching session OF
congress. Indeed it is not certain that
an agreement can be reached between
the two branches of congress which by
any special legislation can be enacted.
1t may be that solution of the prob
lem, which is alike complex and per
sion, but even that is by no means

EAT LETTUCE DAILY.
Then You VIII Be In No Danger of
Catching Smallpox.

Then You VIII Be In No Danger of
Catching Smallpox.
Lettuce Is an absolute preventive Of
smallpox. No one is in the least par
ticle of danger of catching smallpox
who eats a little lettuce every day.
Smallpox belongs to the scOrbutic
class of diseases. Sailors at sea, de-
prived of fresh vegetables, get scurvy.
Scurvy is a typical scOrbutic disease.
Smallpox is another. Smallpox always
RACES during the winter season, when
the poor people are deprived of fresh
vegetable foods.
Celery and onions are good for this
purpose, but there is such long inter
val between their being gathered and
being eaten that they lose most of
their antiscorbutic properties. Lettuce
is served shortly after it is picked,
and hence contains the valuable prop
critics which will prevent smallpox.
We say without the least hesitation
or reserve that lettuce will prevent
smallpox. 1t is a thousand times bet
ter than vaccination. 1t has no liabil-
tiles, like vaccination, to produce other
diseases. We are willing to stake our
professional reputation on the broad
statement that any one who eats let
tuce daily will not catch smallpox
whether he be vaccinated or not

THERE has been much talk over the

Union would have kicked up so much
fuss over a petty appointment. While
the press everywhere has taken up
more or less space with the twaddle, it
is refreshing to here the statement of
facts given out at headquarters: 'When
