HIS FIRST WATERSPOUT.
Green Sailor Boy Wanted to See One and He Was Quickly Ac-
 commodated.

A waterspout is one of the first things a green sailor boy wants to see. He has read about it as one of the wonders Of the sea, and it rouses his keenest curi- osity. He gets the old sailors to promise to call him when one is sighted. They promise, winking stealthily at each oth- CT, relates an exchange.
 The ship gets down into tropical wa ters, and the boy is told that water spout may come along almost at any time.
 One night he is awakened suddenly. An old sailor shakes him.
 Come on! Hurry up, young feller: there's a waterspout on the starboard bow bearing right down on us."
 The boy hastens up the companions way without waiting to dTess, and aa he darts out on decK ne IS thrown down by a mass of water descending on him like a wet mountain. He struggles to his feet, gasping, sputtering:
 "Wa-a-s that-t wa-a-a-ter spout?"
 The sailors are around him roaring. Then he looks up above the companion way and sees an empty hogshead. Having seen and felt the waterspout, he descends to his bunk, wipes himself dry and turns in. Next time waterspouts in great num- bers may be reported on both bows, but he will have no particular desire to ob- serve them.

CURIOUS WORMS OF NORWAY
They Gather in Great Numbers Form. ing a Serpent-Like Mass
 When Migrating.

The Sciaras, of the genus Tiplux, tiny wormlike creature which is found in the forests of Norway and Hungary dur ing the month of July or early in August gather in huge numbers preparatory to migrating in search of food or for . change of conditions. When setting out on this journey says Nature, they stick themselves together by means of some glutinous matter, and form huge ser pentlike mass, often reaching length of between 40 and 50 feet and several inches in thickness. As the scaria is only on an average of about three thir- ty-seconds of an inch in length, with no appreciable breadth whatever, the num- Der required to form a continuous line of the size above mentioned is incal- culable.
 Their pace is, of course, very slow. and upon meeting an obstacle, such as . stick or stone, they either writhe over or around it. sometimes breaking into two bodies for the purpose. A celebrated French naturalist says that if the rear portion of this snakelike procession be brought into contact with the front part the insects will keep moving round in that circle for hours. never seeming to realize that they are getting no further on their journey. If the portions be broken in two the procession will unite In short time. When the peasant meets one of these processions he will lay some obstacle In front of it. If it passes over 1t 1t is a good omen.

Postal Gard Too Small Mrs. A. T. Neal, of Maryvills, To.
 Says:

"A postal card is to small to begin my praise of your wonderful preparation, Par. acamph. My first experience with Para. camph was about one year ago; my little girlwas very badly burned with hot grease One of my kind neighbors recommended Paracamph and gave me what she had on hand, as we live in the country and could notimrnediate1y get it from town. The first application gave relief. We used about three bottles and the burns were healed up nicely, although they were very bad burns.
 My little girl was playing and fell knock ing the grease in her lap; she was burned on both legs from the knees almost to her hips, and in removing her clothing great deal of the skin came off, leaving her legs perfectly raw. have used Paracamph for great many things since then, and never like to be without it in my house. I have quite family and find it great task to write, but hope my letter will reach you in time. as am great friend of Para carnph. I could tell you more of its good works but guess this will be enough for this time. am always willing to sound the praise of a valuable remedy"
 This letter should convince all mothers ofthe necessity for keeping in their homes bottle of Paracamph. This wonderful remedy is needed almost every day in the year. It not only relieves pain quickly but 1t heals all manner of wounds without leaving ugly scars. Get bottle of Para camph today, and if it fails to do what we claim for it and if you don't find it is the most useful remedy you have ever had in your home, wewill refund your money.

The Leopard of the Shows.

When we look at the leopards in a menagerie our minds instinctively turn to pictures of the hot tropics and the tor rid lands of the equator. But there are leopards that love the snow, and never willingly descend below the levels where snowstorms occur in summer as we'll as in winter. The New York Zoo logical park possesses, at present. a beautiful specimen of the "snow leop- ard" whose home is among the lofty mountains about Thibet. Thousands Of tanned skins of the snow leopard ars carried to Shanghai for sale, but the iiy- ing animalis rarely seen away from his cool mountain home.-Youth's 8 Compan- lon.

Baby's Eyelashes.

Some mothers clip the lbaby's eye- lashes to make them grow long. This may be all right for the baby, but after maturity has been reached it is perhaps betetr to rub little pure ointment or plain vaseline into the lashes rather than to clip the ends.-Medical Talk.

ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX
He viii Retire From the Cabinet in a
Few Days.

Washington, June 15.-Although At
tOrney General Knox refuses either to
deny or to affirm the statement, it IS
learned from a high source that it is
his intention to retire from the cabinet
within the next few days, or as soon
as his appointment as a United States
senator from the state of PennsyIva-
MIA shall be received from Gov. Penny
packer He will be succeeded by Mr..
Moody, the present secretary Of the
navy. 1t is said that after a confer
ence with the president, Attorney Gen
eral Knox conciUded that his action in
retiring at once from the department
of justice would be in accordance with
the spirit of the constitution, which
provides that each state shall have
two senators and empowers the gov
ernor to appoint in case of vacancy.

HAS TRIED BOTH.
Travel for Health VS.. Dieting.

A man who was sent to Europe fol
his health and finally found cure in a
little change in his diet says:
Il was troubled with dyspepsia for
nosha that treated me for over year
both told me there was no help for
me. Then I had an expert from Chi
cago, but still received no relief; then
followed another expert from Chicago
who came to our house two times a
month for four months. He gave me
up like all the others and told me to
take a trip across the ocean, which |
did in the year 1899 and came home
about as bad as when l started. The
doctors told me my stomach lining was
full of sores. Then l began to study
my own case and learned of the diet
recommended by the Postum Cereal
Co. so 1 gave up coffee, pork and all
greasy foods and began using Postum
Food Coffee. Gradually l got better and
better until l am we'll now as l ever
was in my younger days, have Nd trou-
Bile and eat anything fit to eat
Sometimes away from home l am
persuaded to drink coffee, but l only
take a sip of it, for it tastes bitter and
disagreeable to me, but the longer use
Postum the better l like it and the
better I feel. l could say great deal
more of my experience with Postum
but think this will give everyone
good idea of what leaving off coffee
and using Postum can do" Name
