The tea must be drawn from the well when the first ray of sun strikes it. a pot-pourri of materials specified by laws forms the staple dish. while at the finish a measure of sake from a red lacquer cup must be drained by whomsoever desires happiness dur ing the coming year. In the room is placed an "elysian stand" or red lac quer tray. covered with evergreen leaves and bearing a rice dumpling, a lobster. oranges, persimmons. chest nuts, dried sardines and herring roe. All these dishes have a special signifi- cation. The names of some are synony- nous with words of happy omen. The lobster's curved back and long claws typify life prolonged till the frame is bent and the beard is long: the sar- dimes, which always swim in pairs, ex- press conjugal bliss: the herring is sym bolical of fruitful progeny.

I conducted eleven weddings and off, ciated in twenty-two weddings. I bap- tized six converts here, four at Cairo and thirty-six for the pastor at Se- dalia.

MT. schoenfelt, Indian agent, says that there never has been a winter since he has been in office when the Indians were so poverty-stricken as at tAe present time. This is especially true in the Cherokee nation. MT. Schoen- felt says that the only reason he can assign is that the Indians believed they would have plenty of money by realiz- ing on their lands and the payment of the loyal Creek claim, and failed to put in as large crops as usual This, coupled with the short crop this year, has reduced the supplies to the poverty line even this early in the winter. None of the Indians have realized on their lands, and the loyal Creek claim will not be paid until the hardest part of the winter is passed.

Sir Oliver Lodge, the eminent scien- list who doubts whether the revela- tons of radium really hold out any promise of ultimate ability to change base metals into gold, is at work upon an idea which, if it is soundly based and can be carried out in practice, will be of much more value to man than a realization of the dream of the early alchemists. It is that dense fogs,. like those of London, can be dispelled by shooting currents of elec- tricity through them from tall masts.

Mi!lionaire's Poor Stomach.

The worn-out stomach of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in the

the evils attendant on the possession
of great wealth. But millionaires are
not the only ones who are afflicted with
bad stomachs. The proportion is far
greater among the toilers. Dyspepsia
and indigestion are rampant among
these people, and they suffer far worse
tortures than the millionaire unless
they avail themselves of standard
