THE TOOTHPTCE.

All true Mos!ems when eating must
begin with salt and finish with vinegar
If they begin with salt they will escape
the contaglon of seventy diseases. IL
they finish with vinegar their worldly
prosperity will continue to increa Sc.
The host is in etiquette bound to be the
first to start eating and the last to
leave off. Toothpicking is considered
an act of grace in the true Moslem,
for Gabriel is reported to have brought
toothpick from heaven for the
prophet after every meal. The priests
recite certain passages of the Koran
before and after lunch and dinner and
also before drinking water at any hour
of the day.
The pious believer, before going to
bed, must perform his ablutions and
say his prayers.
Prayers are also said against mos
quitoes and other insects. This cleanses
the conscience of the true Moslem, if
it fail in preserving the skin. The
Eastern peoples in general and the
Mohammedans in particular are early
| risers. Sleep after morning prayers,
which are said before sunrise. is sure
TO cause folly; sleep In the middle OF
the day is regarded as necessary and
suitable to work; and sleep before even
ing prayers has the same effect as that
after the devotions of the early morn
ing. The Mohammedans believe that
the prophets slept on their backs, So
as to be able to converse with the
angels at any hour of the night; that
the faithful should sleep on their right
sides, and the Kafirs on their left, and
that the deyes take their rest on their
| stomachs.

Gowns For the street.

Street gowns for summer wear show
three or four quite diverse styles, all Of
which are attractive. The positive
rule for the everyday skirt is that it
must be short. Not short enough to
show the feet. but to clear the ground
1t must also have decided flare
around the foot and fit neatly over the
hips. The coat of quarter length
or short, with n short skirt, is IT,
favorite style at present.

rHURBER BRICK FoR PAVING.
All Cities in Texas Are Using This
Make Of Brick

The best paving brick now made is
called the Thurber brick Several
Texas cities are using this brick and
only last week Austin adopted IT,
Speaking OF the Thurber brick Jim
Lee said that his company had tested
six or seven specimens of standard
brick and found the Thurber brick to
be equal, If not superior, TO any brick
made. He said that the Thurber brick
usei in the city Of Houston gave uni
yersal satisfaction, especially on Craw-
ford street. where 1t had heen laid for
three years. In his opinion the use of
brick gave more satisfaction than any
other material which might be used.
From the exhaustive tests to which the
Thurber brick has been submitted Mr..
Lee said that it spoke well for Texas

the mater OF encouraging the build

There is a story told by Mr. Web

the short grass country. Mr.. Gould
was on tour of inspection over the
Missouri Pacific and had reached

Gould declared it the best milk he
ever drank, and so reported to the
department Of agriculture The Mis-
souri, Pacific offered inducements for
the building Of a creamery and also
gave an exceptionally low rate for the
transportation Of its products. Many

The Missouri, Kansas & Texas lost
four miles of grade near Guthrie last

Mr. Coyle and U. c. Guss, of Guth-

past year they have opened and christ
ened ten towns. Most Of these are on
the Eastern Oklahoma branch of the
Santa Fe. They all have business en-
terprises of various character already
established, and most of them have
banks and newsDaDars
1T is remarkable said MT. CoyIe,
how the new towns in Oklahoma all
grow and become important business
lcenters. It is due to the development
of the country contiguous to them and
the good crops that Oklahoma farm
ers are producing now with the saihe
Regularity that the old farming states
produce them"
