THEORIES ABOUT cATARRH.
Peculiar Ideas Regarding a Common
Disease.

Mark Twain's cure for a cold in the
head was simple, but he claims very
effective in his own case; his plan was
to eat nothing whatever for twenty
four hours or presumably until the
trouble had disappeared.
Although not able to speak from per-
sonal experience as to the effective
ness of this treatment, it certainly has
the merit of extreme economy, but it
occurs to US that the application of it
, to a case of nasal catarrrh might be
attended with difficulties.
Catarrh. as everyone knows. is a
chronic cold in the head, and Mr..
Twain's treatment, if il should become
a fad. would make of us a nation of

achieved worldwide fame by fasting
forty days.

his voice as though exulting in his con-

cause of all evil. declaring he only at

because the latter was the highest rep

that he had intended going to Italy for
the purpose of making an attempt on
the life of the Italian monarch, but he
did not have sufficient funds.
During the prisoners examination it
developed that he left the Italian army
because his officers prosecuted him.
The prosecution included in the indict-

NO OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Rock Island Deal With Union Pacific
Not Yet Ratified.

New York, Feb. 6.-The principals n
the Rock Island-Union Pacific-Southe en-
Pacific deals have not yet issues an
official statement, nor is it likely that
they will do so until the agreement has
been ratified by their respective boards.
1t may be stated on the best authority
that an extension of community D
interests has been entered into. that
the Rock Island will share control OF
the Houston & Texts Central road
The terms include giving Rock Island
stock in part or whole payment for the
Houston & Texas Central stock bought
and this presumably means that the
Southern Pacific, which is controlled by
the Union Pacific. will take an equal
amount of Rock Island into the treas

INDIAN VOW MAKER.
He Had Things All His own way Un.
til the White Man began Maxi .s
ing Vows, Too. B

MANY anecdotes show that Indians
have not been wanting in calculation
and cunning in their dealings with
white people. Indeed, the paletace,
although superior in intelligence and
education, is often obliged to look very
sharp in order not to become the dupe
Of the crafty red man. In '"The Des-
arts Of North America" this anecdote
is related:
An Indian, after hearing a preacher
speak from the text: ''Make vows to
Heaven and keep them," went up to
the preacher after the sermon and
said: ssEs. ~ @ H
II have made vow to go to your
house"
The minister was little surprised,
but he smiled and said: SWELL, keep
your vow."
On arriving at the house the Indian
seated himself, and after q time re-
Marked 81 have made vow to sup
with you." This was also granted, but
when, after supper, the Indian an
nounced: 81 have made vow to sleep
IN your house," the minister began to
fear that there would be no end to
the VOWS of his attentive auditor.
"That is easy to do, and you should
keep your vow," he said. II will give
YOU bed. But" he added, II have
made vow that you shall leave to-
morrow morning" sEss
The Indian nodded. "Good!" he said.
ssYou make my vows come true; SO l
make your vow come true" And the
next morning he went away in good
humor. .a

IGNORANCE OF BIRDS.
1t IL Almost Universal, Although
More Noticeable in Some Varie-
=e4sg ties Than in Others.

Birds, with all their acuteness, often
groove. The chirpipg sparrows have
persisted in buildingStheir nests in the
roof cutters of the next house, ignor-
ing the fact that rain is not unknown
in this climate, and that heavy show
err will flood their tenements and
drown their offspring. Not only this,
but next year and the year after they
will do the same, failing to learn by
experience how to accommodate them
selves to British weather. Jackdaws,
when untainted by civilization dwell
in holes in the rocks, but quickly adapt
themselves to new circumstances The
writer has been almost slnothered by
smoke caused by nest which COM
pletely blocked his chimney, ten feet
from the top. As the chimney had only
been built few months, it is obvious
that as site it must have been unfs-
miliar to the troublesome birds. Now,
that time is far distant when first chim-
neys were invented and the first jack
DAVIS descended their blackened
depths; yet long experience, while it
has shown the birds the convenience
of chimneys for holding their. a bomin-
able sticks, has not taught them that
their premises cannot be insured
against fire. Perhaps, after all, the
brains of iaclsdaws are sharper than
is supposed. The nests are placed in
the chimneys just when the fires are
being given up for the summer, so that
the jackways enjoy the use of the
chimneys more than the man who pays
for their erection.-Bird Lore.

the efficiency Of the Cuticura Reme-
dies in what seems to me two some
what remarkable cases. I had q
number Of skin tumours : small
ones on my arms which had never
given me serious trouble but about
two years ago one came on my
throat. At first it was only about as
large as q pinhead, but, as it was in
position where my collar, If not
just right, would irritate it, it soon
became very sensitive and began to
grow rapidly. Last spring it was
as large, if not larger, than bean.
A little unusual irritation Of my
collar started it to swelling, and in
q day or two it was as large A.
half an orange. I was very much
alarmed, and was at a loss to de-
termine whether It was q carbuncle
