"The trouble with poor persons who
try to doctor themselves before coming
here" said a physician in public dis
pensary. lis that they do not know the
first thing about the simple remedies
as they call them, that they use. Of
tentimes they do themselves serious in
jury through sheer ignorance. l had q
man in here the other day who had
taken half an ounce of cholera mix
ture. Somebody had told him to take
half tcaspoonful. 1t is the same way
with paregoric, sweet inter. ammonia
and other well known household rene
dies. Persons who trust to their mem
DRY are likely to get mixed and either
take an overdose or use tile wrong
medicine. \ woman came in here suf-
fering from the effects of drug that
she should never have obtained except
on physician's prescription. 1t was
the big overdose and her prompt appli-
cation for relief that saved her. When
| scolded her she showed me clipping
from one of the magazines advising its
use. The dose prescribed was enough
to kill q horse. New York Times

The Menu Card In Its First Form.

In its old fashioned form the menu
was usually written large on cards Of
such imposing dimensions that room
for one only could be found at each
end OF the board. In the medieval
dinner this aid to selection must have
been an absolute necessity, for the
medieval dinner was a mine of sur
prises. 1t was divided into courses. as
are our own dainty meals, but whereas
nowadays the diner has general idea
that fish will follow soup and that en-
tree is succeeded by relieve. and can
conceive generally the sort Of demand
that each course viii make upon his
appetite and digestion, there was no
possible arguing as TO what was going
to happen at an early English dinner,
and close study fails to reveal the ex-
istence of any principle of arrange
ment

followed his example through force OF
habit, and now | have contracted it. If
YOU don't break the shells the fairies
can use them for boats and can cross
bodies Of water thus. In the north OF
ireland there are good fairies and bad
fairies. The bad fairies will play

You can hamper their movements by

AN INGENIOUS BURGLAR.
How He Opened Safe without Tools
or Explosives.

or Explosives.
An extraordinary account is given OF
how Il safe was opened by a roboer
who had at his disposal no instrument
of any kind. but operated merely with
his finger nail. The person who accom-
plished the feat revealed his Intention
of robbins the iron safe in hotel to
another young man. who happened to
be the cousin of the hotel proprietor.
AS matter of course the proposed
scheme to rob was revealed to the own
er IT the hotel, and a little before mid
night, when it was to be put into exc
cution, couple of detectives were con-
cealed behind the office counter.
A short time aftcrward the robber
entered the Office gently. without either
tools or explosives wherewith TO open
the massive iron receptacle the COM
bination of which ii was evident he did
not know He had. however, resorted
to an ingenious plan of his own.
He had pared the nail of his index
finger OH the right hand until the blood
vessels were exposed Then by placing
the sensitive wound on the combina
ton lock lie could distinguish the move
ments of the tumblers as they fell, For
more than an hour did he work. and at
last there came a sharp click, and he
swung back the doors of the safe.
He was in the act of filling his pock-
cts with the valuable papers ii con-
tanned when damper was thrown up
on his activity by the sudden grasp of
the detectives under whose escort Ne
was taken to prison. London Tit-Bits

AT this season of the year barns
are very liable to be struck and
burned by lightning for two reasons
First, being built high on account of
the invention of hay forks and car
riers, like churches they form eligi-
bic points for the discharge of cleo
tricity, which generally selects IA
prominent point. Second, being filled
with new hay, their liability to being
struck is vastly increased, which
will clearly appear from short cal
culation. Put forty tons of well
cured hay from the meadow into the
barn; next winter the same hay will
not weigh out over thirty tons, hav-
ing lost ten tons of moisture during
the curing process. Now this vapor
constantly rising from the barn, be-
ing good conductor of electricity,
causes the lightning from an over
hanging thunder cloud to take that
route and frequently to destroy the
barn.

III lgh aud Press: Sunday Carl
Nehl's boy found cap used in the
mines 10 explode dynamite or her
cules powder, and accompanied by
Leo CLANCY, youth of eight years,
he started out in the woods to make
the cap go off. The cap in question is
not dangerous looking as it is about
half an inch long and fits nicely over
a common penny lead pencil. Yet,
when one considers that it is iammed
full of gun cotton, one of the most
powerful explosives known to science
its looks is betraying to amateurs.
The Nehle boy placed the cap on u
large rock and struck it with IA
smaller one weighing perhaps four
or five pounds. 1t went off, and in
suc.l violent manner that the small
er rock was blown to smith. rens.
The CLANCY boy seemed to get the
worst OF the fun FOR his left eye was
badly cut, a piece of the rock cut a
hole in his neck, another piece OF
rock struck rib, another piece of
rock went through another rib and
lodged behind the same while
piece of the cap struck a third rib
and glanced along the same for two
inches. The Nehls boy was not ex-
amined by DR.. Lohrs, but from APP
pearances was severely cut in sever
al places.
