The Bashi.1azovk's Costume,


Like each of the various clans of
the Kurds, the Bashi- Bazouk can cas-
lily be distinguished by his costume.
His shoes or "yemenys" (meaning

like stockings, which leave the knee
exposed, are deliberately embroidered
in black. his short Turkish trousers
are homespun, while about his waist
is q short sash of wool or silk, sur
mounted by leather belt in rich COL
ors and embossed in red. This is d.
vided into three or four sections. in
which he keeps his revolver, his CHI
bouk, or pipe, and his yataghan, al
ways kept sharp. The Bashi-Bazouks
never carry daggers, as the Circas-
SLAMS do; "A cartridge box hangs from
his side. as alsopa small silver SNUFF
box. They wear two Jackets, the un-
der one with short sleeves and the
outside with long. At the elbow is an
opening, in which they carry in a

Plea For the Wooden Shoe,

1--WE have wisely taken to wearing
Sandals" SAYS Philadelphia physi-
clan. Il hope that before long we will
learn the advantage of the wooden
shoe, or sabot. Do you know that
great many diseases are due to leather
shoes, due to the wearing all day long
of tight leather that is often, in bad
weather, water soaked? And do you
know that by the wearing of wooden
shoes. which keep the feet dry and
which do not draw all those diseases
might be avoided? have several
pairs of sabots, and so have my wife
and children. They cost about 30
cents pair and keep the feet dry.
without cramping them or making
them unhealthy tender. believe that
the wisest thing Americans could do
would be to take up the sandal and
the sabot, discarding altogether the
shoe of leather"

THE COOKBOOK.

To prevent eggs from cracking when
they are boiling, place pin in the
saucepan.
If you get too much salt in the gravy.
a pinch of brown sugar will remedy the
sadness without hurting the gravy in
the least.
When onions are Of too strong flavor
to be pleasant for sauce, boil turnip
with them, but remove it before using
the onions.
Never fry mere than six oysters at
once unless you have very large ket-
tie of fat If more are cooked they will
soak grease and take long time to
brown.
Don't forget that mineemeat is q
great deal better to be made a week or
ten days before it is to be used. The
spices and cider, ETC., have thus time to
percolate the apple and meat.
Peanut salad is an excellent accom-
paniment for roast duck. Soak cupful
of peanut meats in olive OIL drain and
mix lightly with two cupfuls of finely
cut celery and dozen pitted olives.
Serve with mayonnaise dressing on let
tuce leaves.

ElOquence That Quelled a Riot In .
Military Hospital.
In the Memories of a Hospital Ma
tron'' writer in the Atlantic Monthly,
who was head of Confederate hos
pital during the war, relates this ex-
citing incident:
"Our steward, q meek little man,
came to me one day, pale with fright,
and said that the convalescents had
etormed the bakery, taken out the half
cooked bread and scattered it about
the yard, beaten the baker and threat
ened to hang the steward. l hurried
to the scene to throw myself into the
breach before the surgeon should ar
rive with the guard and arrest the Of
tenders. 1 found the new bakery lev
eled to the ground and 200 excited
men clamoring for the bread which,
they declared, the steward withheld
from them from meanness or stole for
his own benefit.
"'And what do you say of the ma.
from: asked, rushing among them.
DO you think that she, through whose
hands the bread must pass, is party
to the theft? Do you accuse me, who
have nursed you through months of
illness, making you chicken soup when
we had not seen chicken for year,
forcing an old breastbone to do duty
for months for those unreasonable fell
lows who wanted to see the chicken;
me, who gave you greater variety In
peas than was ever known before and
who lately stewed your rats when the
cook refused to touch them? And this
is your gratitude! You tear down my
bakehouse, beat my baker and want
to hang my steward!
ITO my surprise the angry men
laughed and cheered. A few days later
there came to me committee of
| two sheepish looking fellows to ask
my acceptance Of ring. Each of the
poor men had subscribed something
from his pittance, and their old enc
my, the steward, had been sent to town
to make the purchase. Accompanying
the ring was bit Of dirty paper on
which was written, For our chief ma
iron, in honor of her brave conduct on
the day of the bread riot"

SUCCESSFUL USE OF FORMALIN
By Two MissouIa Physicians ir
Blood Poisoning Case.

Formaline as a cure for blood poi
soning has been successfully admin
istered in Missoula. So sudden was
the remedy in it's effect that an arm
badly swollen Thursday was almost
we'll next day. The patient, Otis
Worden, brother of former State Sen
ator Tyler Worden of Missoula, cut
his wrist with a rusty hay hook.
Blood poisoning set in and Thursday
night, Mr.. Worden called at the Par
sons & Brown hospital for treatment.
DR.. w. B. Parsons examined the
wound and found it to be badly in
fected. The arm was swollen almost
to the shoulder. The doctor gave
the patient an injection of formalin
and dressed the wound. Mr.. Worden
returned to his home and when he
awoke yesterday morning he says he
felt no pain whatever. Not only had
the soreness left, but the swelling
had gone down and the arm was OF
natural size. Mr.. Worden was able
to resume his duties at the store yes
terday, with only a small bandage
about the wounded wrist.
So far as cases where fOrmalin has
been used for blood poisoning are
known through published accounts
this is the fourth case successfully
treated in the United States. Bott
Drs. Parsons and Brown became in
terested in formalin, having read the
account of it's first successful use by
a New York doctor in case of chile
birth, and two cases since then. Mr.
Worden's case was the first that ha:
come under their care, and having
been successfully treated they are
naturally elated. Formalin is Ger
tainly a wonderful anti-toXine.
