FOR HONEST WEIGHTS.

Mason City has passed an ordinance
providing for the appointment of City
weighmasters upon application in
writing to the city council, filing a
bond of $1,000, paying license fee of
$40 per annum, providing a reliable
set of scales, and operating them un-
der restrictions enumerated in the
ordinance. BY this method of con-
trolling all the stock scales in the
city no one is excluded from this bust
ness, the city secures revenue there
from, and patrons are guaranteed
honest weights. Persons violating
the ordinance are fined from five to
twenty dollars and are liable to the
injured party for damages sustained.
Why isn't this good thing for any
city?

A SCRIPTURAL INJUNCTION.

A Sunday school superintendent in
talking to his pupils about cruelty to
animals said: "Only coward would
arouse creature that has no way OF
protecting itself. Why, children, |
once knew little boy who cut off IA
calf's tail. Think of it-took knife
and cut the tail right off. Can any
one tell a verse in the Bible that
would have taught this cruel boy that
he should not have cut off the calf's
tail?" After a moments silence a
small boy held up his hand and when
asked to quote the verse ventured,
"What God hath joined together LEI
no man put asunder. Eek.

OBJECTS TO THE KIDS.

Only one Waukon merchant refused
to subscribe to $500 raised to defray
the expenses of the Woodmen Picnic
June A. and his objection was on the
ground that on such occasions the
mothers bring their babies and stay
about his store. making him more or
less trouble. He runs the Golden
Rule" store, but to be consistent with
himself should change its name at
once. He will doubtless not be
bothered with babies any more. as the
Waukon papers have given him some
free advertising for his foolishness.

DEAF-MUTES NEVER GIDDY.
Vertigo seems 10 he One OF the Ills
20 which They Are Never
Subject.

II Is a singular fact, vouched for by
those who have investigated the subject.
that a deaf can whirl around inter
minably without seeming to suffer in
any way from vertigo. Il have seen
them do 1t repeatedly" said a
physician long connected with a deaf
and dumb institute, "and their perform
ances bear out theory OF DR.,
William James, the Harvard psycholo-
gist-the brother, you know, of Henry
James, the novelist There is certain
tube, connecting with the ear, that is
the seat, according to William James
of our sense OF dizziness and vertigo.
In deaf-mutes this tube is deranged.
Therefore, according to James theory.
deaf-mutes should be incapable Of suf
fering vertigo.
"The psychologist experimental on this
matter at Harvard; he had hundreds OF
deaf and normal persons spinning round
like these children for him. And the
result of the experiment bore him out
Out of a large number Of mutes most
were proof against vertigo, and the bal
ance only suffered it slightly. OF 300
Harvard students submitted to the same
test, but one showed vertigo in very
marked form Thus James proved that
the deaf are immune to dizziness. The
boys at the Mount Airy institution prove
the same thing"

INDIAN BANK DEPOSITCRS.
Red Men OF Kansas Are Learning How
to Put Away Their Money
Like White Men.

The Lawton Enterprise states that
many Indians near its city have learned
how to take care of their money. Near
ly every bank in Lawton has several
Indian cash deposits, says the Kansas
City Journal.
A week ago withered squaw with
buckskin leggings and moccasins went
to the bank. From under leather
thong which she wore as a substitute for
a belt she produced leather pouch,
with fringe and beads. From out of
this receptacle she produced little
buckskin sack. After fumbling about in
it she secured small purse. Tucked
into the corner of it was wad of paper
twisted smaller than the end of your lit
tie finger. She began to untwist and
unfold the wad with the care of a spe-
cialist performing an operation on the
human eye.
Gradually the paper developed into a
crumpled deposit check She had some
difficulty in explaining to the teller how
much money she wanted. She signed
with her hand, grunted, held up her
brown fingers. Finally he understood,
grunted three times and she grunted
one and smiled-when the sum that she
asked for was handed over.

THE MEANING OF MUSIC.
Tones Have Their Specific Express
sions just ms Much as
spoken Words.

Music is a science more exact than
most people suppose" said violinist,
reports the Philadelphia Ledger. You
cant, for instance, say different things
with the same tones in music any more
than you can say different things with
the same words in English or French.
Black means black in English; never
under any circumstances can it mean
white In the same way, in music,
major third expresses an interrogation
or an appeal, never anything else, and
this appealing quality becomes exceed
ingly marked in the fourth descending,
While the fourth ascending advances
from interrogation to affirmation and
finally TO command. Major and minor
lifths travel by regular gradations from
prayer to desire, and from desire to
menace. SiXths express passion-all
love music is written in sixths. To
semi-tone higher. and this love. this
passion, becomes a painful, an en-
nous, an ill-starred one. Sevenths ex-
press grief, tragedy. Perhaps you think
| am exaggerating here, but assure
you | am not. What | claim you will
find claimed in many treatises on mu-
sic, and if you will study the works Of
the composers, you will find that they,
too, bear me out"

CHEESES OF ALL COUNTRIES.
Some Familiar Kinds That Have De-
come Well Liked in the
United States.

Each country has it's favorite cheese.
The Swiss make the gruyere cheese. 1t
Is made of goats milk, and is full Of
holes, caused by the gases in fermenta-
ton The typical English cheese is the
cheddar, first made in the English town
after which it is named.
Brie is a popular French soft cheese;
and camembert, originating in Nor
mandy, is another. These cheeses are
cured in caves, where the temperature
never rises above IL TO IA degrees.
Roquefort, celebrated French
cheese, is made from the mingled milk
of goats and sheep that browse on the
thyme-clad banks Of the Arno. These
cheeses are also ripened in caves, but
the temperature is kept at 40 degrees.
Akin to the roquefort cheese is that
called gorgonzola, made in Italy after
similar processes. 1t is milder than
roquefort, and not quite so good; but
1t sold much cheaper. Another Italian
cheese, the parmesan, is very hard, and
is usually grated.
Limburger cheese so beloved by the
Germans, originated in Belgium. It is
extraordinarily rich, being allowed tc
ripen by putrefaction, hence it's hor-
rifying odor to unaccustomed nostrils.
Some persons have saying: "Gor.
gonzola is cheese to swear by, lin,
| burger TO swear att"

TITLED MUTGR CAk AGENTS.
English Women who Are Doing a
Thriving business Introduce
Ing Automobiles.

The automobile craze has opened
new field for the impecunious woman in
high society, and many are making much
money acting as agents for the various
makes OF machines, says London re-
port. A certain woman Of title It known
TO have sold, within six months, five high
power cars and il smaller ones, aud
made in commissions about $4,000
There was no trouble in making the
transactions, for all she had to do was
to tell her wealthy friends that her car
was the best on the market, and give her
card to the intending purchaser, to be
presented to the maker.
To help his titled agent, the manufac-
turer places a car, sometimes two, at her
disposal, usually at her country house

She manages to get some wealthy
friends for a visit, and then talks mo-
tor from morning to night, and gives
them rides until they are fit subjects foi

tants are all afflicted with goitre or chick
neck. - Instead OF regarding this as a de.

Every woman suffers more or less from irrec.
alarity, liberation, debilitating drains, or
female weakness, and this suffering is so

accept 1t as a condition natural and necessary
| to their sex. But it is condition as un-
natural as it is unnecessary. The use of d.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription strengthens
the delicate womanly organs and regulates
the womanly urctons, so that women is
practically delivered from the pain and
misery which eat up ter years of her life
| between the ages Of fifteen and forty.iive.
"Favorite Prescription" makes weak women
strong and sick women well.
