PLAN TO UTILIZE NOISES.
Have Them All Properly Attuned to
Each Other.

AAdfC AhCA0 all IIOPClly AbluuGu W
Each Other.
The proposition of Mrs Amelia Hol-
brook before the Professional Wo-
mems league that children should be
taught not to scream off the key, but
that mothers should carry a tuning
fork and give them the proper note, or
if there are several of them, they
should be taught to cry in unison, is
not, to acoustic experts, preposterous
proposition. N
I'VE know little of the laws and
properties of sound and what might be
done with discordant and unrelated
noises" says Mr. Kitchings, who makes
acoustic apparatus for instruction in
physics. Take a tuning fork OF large
size and set it vibrating, and one in
the same key across the room will
soon give out the same sound. The
disagreeable noises of city-the roar
of wagons, street cars, the II road, the
cries of peddlers-might, if properly
attuned to each other, be rendered
agreeable instead of discordant and a
nuisance. A municipal league of har-
mony. like the one for art, might in
time bring it about. There is consid-
cradle waste energy in noise that
might be utilized For example, it
would be possible to arrange the COM
bfnation of q safe lock so as to open
it by singing a certain melody. The
notes would set the corresponding
metals vibrating; these would commu-
nicate with electric power, which in
turn would move the tumbrils of the
lock and the bolts would turn back.
"A set Of whistles on board ship
might be arranged to stand for the diff
ferent points of the compass In fog
the whistle corresponding to the al
rection in which the vessel was sailing
would De blown. On board OF other
ships there would be a set of reverbera-
tors indicating in the same way the
points of the compass. BY running
over these the one in harmony with
the whistle would be picked out, and
at once inform the second vessel the
direction of the first and SO collision
would be avoided. A war ship might
communicate with it's consorts and the
enemy be unable to read the signals"

PUT UP HIS GUN.
Farmer Made Up His Mind That the
Birds Were His Friends.

Birds Were His Friends.
One of our best practical farmers,
says an exchange, related to us the
other day how he came to change his
mind about killing birds He said he
formerly took a great deal of pleasure
with his gun and dogs. About six
months after coming to the territory
he told his wife he would go out and
kill few quail Tt was about 4 O'Clock,
SO calling his dogs he started out on lis
own farm. He soon shot three quail
and his wife. knowing that il he got
thoroughly interested In the pursuit of
game he would be out till long after
supper time, persuaded him to come
back to the house and they would have
supper, when he could go again. All
right" said the farmer; 81 will dress
these and we'll have them for supper"
His wife remarked on the fullness of
the craws of the birds, and on opening
one it was found packed full of chinch
bugs. Out of curiosity they counted
and found over 400 chinch bugs in the
craw of one quail. Said the farmer in
relating the circumstance to us: Il just
cleaned up the gun and have not shot
bird since, and If you'll come down to
my place of morning or evening and
see the birds coming to my farm you'll
think they know their friends"

POTATO WATER HAIR TONIC
Other Remedies Suggested as a Cure
for Badness.

Other Remedies Suggested as Cure
for Badness.
sTake a half dozen white potatoes y
said the barber, land pare them length
wise from end to end, instead Of cross
wise, as is usual. Boil them in a
quart of water. Drain the water off
into bottle and add "a little salt. This
liquid, this simple compound Of boiled
potato water and salt, will, If rubbed
into the scalp three times week
change a thin, moth eaten head of hair
into a thick and vigorous crop"
The bald listener laughed.
Potato water is a new one," he
said scornfully.
New and fine," said the barber.
do you see how good my hair is?''
Well, was nearly as bald as you are
once. I used potato water three times
a week for three months. Look at the
result
''I'll tell you some of the tonics that
have been recommended to me-" said
the bald head.
"First-coaI oil-coal oil rubbed into
the scalp every night before retiring.
Can you imagine any man sinking a
coal-oil-drenched head among his pure
white pillows!
Usage tea. / made some sage tea
once, and the mixture had SO vile and
forbidding look that I could not ap-
ply it.
Onion juice. That no doubt is q
good tonic. But what would my
friends say If I should always be
thrusting under their noses a head
scented with onions?
''Black molasses. A Kentuclzian &C
tually advised me last year to try
black molasses.
"Hemlock soap and vinegar-that is
tonic that Maine barber swears by.
Seaweed and appleseeds boiled in sea
water is a sailors recipe. Dandelion
tea, plantain tea, and tea made Of
honeysuckles are the tonics that a
Boston masseur suggested to me"

Duties of Japanege wives.

In Japan, says the Philadelphia Press
the good wife is always dressed before
her husband in the morning. Then, i'm
maculate in attire and smiling in coun-
tenance, she must, If there are not the
necessary servants, perform the part OF
valet. First, she brings a tray with pipe
tobacco and matches; then later, still
smiling, cup Of tea and the morning
paper to solace her lord till time for him
to dress for breakfast At his toilet she
also assists, and when breakfast is over
she speeds him, with more smiles, on his
way to Office or shop.

9 The BeSt Ale
Ever Drew

That's the exact expression used by
a well known local cafe proprietor a
few days ago, referring to our popular
"Alpha Ale" He had tried all the
other kinds, too, and knew what he
was talking about. What better adj
vertisement can be asked than such
voluntary words of praise? And what
a compensation for our untiring efforts
to produce the best ale on the market!
Needless to tell about our "Paiiida"
Lager. That established its great re-
putation years ago. Telephone for

These Remedies Do Not Reach tho

that state for two terms. In re-

"Ican recommend Peruns for dys-

The only rational way to cure dyspep.
sin Is to remove the catarrh. PcrunA

artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in natural way. This Is vastly better
and safer than resorting to artificial
methods or narcotics.
Peruna has cured more cases Of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies com

Peruna cures IL, as well in this location
