TWO OF THE NEW SONGS.
Cheap Sentiment Seems to Be Still in
Demand for Ballads.

It is rather interesting to take note OF
just how foolish the song writers can be-
Two new popular affairs, or at least af-
fairs for which popularity is prayed, are
called The Altar of Friendship and
Down Where the Cocoanut Crows" The
first, a sentimental ballad, founded on
the story of the Nat Goodwin Offering OF
last season, has this chorus
We stood at the Altar of Friendship,
We vowed to be good and true,
I loved him with dearest devotion,
Better, perhaps, than I knew.
No ring has he placed on my finger;
Another will soon be his wife
The vows at the Altar of Friendship
I'll keep and will love all my life.
The other, evidently trying to get into
the Bamboo Tree" class, is still more
foolish:
You Is my cocoanut love.
Sweet as the milk we're slipping;
I want to kiss your ruby lips,
If YOU will love me only,
Then I'll be never lonely,
I'll kiss your lovely finger tips.
Wen eat our fruit together
In the fine or stormy weather.
You is the best gal that 1 knows!
My hut was built for two
Just me and only you
Down where the cocoanut groWs.

AN ARMY OF RODENTS.

A Traveller Had to Wait for Them TO
Cross the Road.
From Calhoun County, Mich, there
cpmes to the Smithsonian Institution
a sensational story of the invasion OF
that county by an army Of 5000 rats
in one pack. A big gray rat is said to
be leading the vast army of rodents
Michigan papers devote considerable
space to the peculiar occurrence, and
some Battle Creek citizens who have
become interested in the migration
have written TO the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition for an explanation. II possible.
The story of the rat raid as told In
Michigan papers is that about hum
dred large rats were crossing a high
way three miles east of Tekonsha VII
lage, Calhoun County. They are said
to have been under the leadership OF
a large gray rat of venerable and dig
nified aspect, and this leader seemed
to have some definite object In view,
for he marshaled his forces in most
authoritative manner. A few days
afterward a farmer in Clarendon
township. in the same county. was
aroused about 8 O'Clock In the morn
ing by a squealing noise Of great mag
nitude. such as might be made by
score of filters OF young pigs. AS the
sound continued to grow in volume
the farmer arose. hastily put on his
clothes and went outdoors. The air
seemed filed with the strange sounds,
and the man climbed his windmill to
see IL he could discover the cause. He
could see a dark wave rolling across
a field toward his barn. it is said, and
as il approached nearer he could see
that II was composed of hundreds OF
rats sauealing loudly as they ran. In
to the barnyard they came, hating In
front of the barn. Then a large gray
rat seemed. to select about twenty
husky rats from the bunch and led
them into the building. When they
emerged ten minutes later they were
ACCOMPANIED by about 100 of the Clar-
endon mans rats. They took their
places in the ranks and the procession
moved on again across the fields.
When last seen the horde is said to
have been crossing the highway east
of the village of Tekonsha. 1t is
claimed a traveller had to wait nearly
five minutes for them to cross the
road. and he estimated their number
to be not less than 5000. They were

MARCONI'S MACHINES.
Giant Transformer and DynamOs
Completed at Montreal for send.
ing Of wireless Messages.

One of the most interesting cleo
trical tests ever made in Canada was
performed at the workshops OF
Thompson d Co., Montreal, which firm
has built the dynamos and the two big
transformers for the Marconi station,
These are the highest voltage trans
formers ever constructed in this coun-
try. Aside from few long-distance
electrical systems in the western por.
ton of the United States no occasion
for the use of such powerful machines
has arisen anywhere.
The test was weird performance.
The transformer, which contains over
20 miles of wire, was built to have APP
proximately capacity for increasing
the voltage of an electric current hav-
ing voltage of 1900 and amperage
of 20 to a current with a voltage of
10000 with an amperage of one. When
the connection was made the trans
former was tested to 10000 volts,

SIXTEEN YEARS OF CATARRH
Well-Known Massachusetts, Woman Cured
bv Hyomei.

How to cure catarrh has been a
problem in medicine for many years
that was not solved until the discov-
cry of Hyomei. This remarkable treat
ment makes it possible for any one to
breathe an air at home which is al
most identical with that of the Adj
rondacks, the Carolinas or other
health resorts where the air is inn
pregnated with healing balsams from
health-giving trees and plants.
Mrs. Elvira K. A. Gibson, who holds
a responsible position in the great dry
goods store of Jordan, Marsh & Co.,
of Boston, wrote in April: 81 had ca
tarrh for twenty years, and the last
ten years (all of which time has been
passed in this great establishment

handkerchiefs per day would be used

ment."
Feldmeyer Brothers have sold hun.
dreds of Hyomei outfits, consisting OF
an inhaler, a medicine dropper, and q
bottle of Hyomei, and with every pur-
chase have given their personal guar.
antee to refund the money if Hyomei
did not cure. They win still sell the
treatment on that plan, and every ca.
tarrh sufferer ought to take advan.
tage of their fair proposition.
