AUTO CRAZE is RAMPANT.
Horseless. vehicle Promises to Rule
During Coming Season-A Coun-
try Woman's Opinion.

This spring evidently bids fair to be
pre-eminently an automobne season
and the equine nose is more out of
joint than even in the days of the BIZ
cycle craze, when all the world went
h-wheeling, says the New York Tri-
bune. Despite the changes surround
ing this latest sport and the expense
attendant upon its enjoyment, the SUI
burban roads fairly swarm with pow
err vehicles Of every description, and
the man or woman who does not auto
mobile either in his own or her own
motor car or in that OF friend feels
very much out of the running.
1t is certainly a pleasant and novel
sensation to get into softly padded,
luxurious car at ones own door in the
city, on beautiful spring afternoon,
be whirled off 30 miles into the coun-
try for afternoon tea at some friends
house and be home again IN time to
dress comfortably for dinner.
1.-THE automobile fever is delightful
in some ways said a woman who
lives all the year round in the country,
end who loves to see her friends. 1t
brings one into such intimate touch
with one's acquaintance who own ma
chimes. With the telephone and the
motor cars one feels that distance is
eliminated, but. on the other hand, it
has completely spoiled people for COM
ing out to us in the ordinary way.

ADOPT CUSTOMS QUICKLY
Thrifty Icelanders Are Speedy in
Assimilating Civilization and
Make Good Farmers.

THE best element of Canadas for
eign population undoubtedly is the
Icelanders," says John T. Walterhouse.
Of Winnipeg, in the Washington Post.
"These hardy mortimer are in every
way an admirable people-thrifty, hon.
est, sober, everlastingly at work.
They are as good farmers as can
be found, and excel in the stock and
dairy business. Most Of them, on
first coming to Canada, are too poor
to buy more than one or two cows,
but before a year goes by they will own
FIVE or six, and perhaps a horse. In two
or three years they will have decent
and comfortable house and own piece
of land They are short in stature,
rather stocky, and mostly fair complex
toned have yet to see immigrants
from any other part Of the world who are
as quick to improve their condition, as
quick in learning the English language,
and as ready to assimilate our customs
and civilization as these Icelanders."

PracticabilitY of Airships.

The 1nists Of the future still hide the
airship that will be used as q convey
ance, making regular trips, carrying
people to and fro above the earth on
business and pleasure, but the coming
of the practical ship is inevitable, writes
Alberto Santos-Dumont, in Success.
will not venture to say how soon 1t will
arrive, but I know that many who are
now alive will move over the housetops
in airships, when most houses will have
entrances on their roofs. have no
faith in the idea that flying machines
may be devised for single individuals,
or that the correct principle may be
found by studying and copying the
fight of birds.

a South American Drink.

Millions Of Inhabitants of South Amer
lea who do not like mate make guarana
their staple drink. The beverage is pro-
duced from the seeds of climbing shrub
which is extensively cultivated. John
Claf1in, head of the great house of the
Claflin company, made acquaintance of
/. it on one of his tours of the South Amer
lean continent. 1t is twice as strong as
coffee and far more astringent than
tea as it contains high percentages of
caffeine and fannie acid Among New
Workers it has not yet found favor, prob
ably because no fair trial Of it has been
made. 1t is called gwah-rah-na Why

Are colored umbrellas really to make

that in it's present form the umbrella is
the ugliest and most inartistic dress

APoTHEcARIEs IN SWEDEN.
The Number Is Very Small in Proc
portion to the Population Of
That Country.

The number of apothecaries in Swe-
den is very small, and the number of
apothecary shops is strictly limited by
law. In the whole country, with a
population of over 100000, says a
consular report, there are less than $50
apothecary shops; and in the capital
city of Stockholm, numbering over
100000 people, the number of apothe-
cary shops is only 22-that is to say,
there is in Sweden, on an average, but
one apothecary shop to about $4,000
people
The apothecaries of Sweden form q
very select and highly educated corps
Of professional men. They consider
themselves public officers, and in some
sense the guardians of the public
health. 1t is practically the unani-
nous opinion among them that it is
unprofessional and improper, as well
as unlawful, for them to import or sell
any patent medicine, secret remedy or
arcanum. 1t is only upon the requisi-.
ton of such an apothecary that any
medicine whatever can be imported,
The United States minister at Stock
holm is of the opinion, therefore, after
a thorough investigation of the sub
ject, that under existing laws and reg
ulations and the construction placed
upon them by the Swedish authorities,
the importation of patent medicines
into Sweden, as well as their sale with
in the kingdom, is absolutely prohib
tied.

Tonato vine as TaIl as Tree.

The skyscraper stage has been
reached in the development OF the
tomato in southern California. One of
the latest prodigies in that succulent
vegetable is a group of three SO-foot
vines that have borne fruit at all sea-
sons and under all sorts of climatic con-
ditions. These remarkable growths are
In the gardens of F. G. Case, In Pasa-
dena. 1t is necessary to use an 18-foot
ladder to harvest the tomatoes, for the
vines have covered a trellis 20 feet in
height, where they have tangled them
selves into thick, compact mass CT
greenery. The seeds of these wonder
full plants were grown in May, 1903, and
have been growing and bearing fruit
ever since; in fact, the vines are always
filed with bloom and both green and
ripe fruit.-Los Angeles Times.

and healthy growth of hair. It is con-
tinuous poultics and a SWEET poultice at
that.
I'm passing. it may be remarked that
women do not wear hats around their
heads as do men, but upon them. Bald
ness among the fair sex is comparative
ly rare.
TT will be observed that badness is
rarely found below the rim of the hat.
Again the condition seems to be more
prevalent in the classically shaped oval
head (upon which, by the way, the pre-
vaiIing shape of the stiff hat appears to
be modeled), than in the irregular head,
owing, perhaps, to the fact that the con-
stricting band is not continuous with
the scalp but lies upon the bumps, thus
allowing some circulation Of blood to
the scalp and air to the hat chamber"
Celebrating upon these probable
causes, the physician has considered the
possibility of preventing, to some ex-
tent this distressing condition by the
application to the hatband of a series of
devices, the object being TO prevent rela-
lively absolute pressure upon the blood
supply, and at the same time to permit
free ingreSS and egress of air to and
from the hat chamber. These devices
consist of cork or other resilient ma
terial upon a backing of some metal, the
whole to be applied at intervals to the
hatband in juxtaposition to the head,
thereby combining the pressure to certain
parts or sections, leaving the interven-
ing space free for the purpose of venti-
lafi0n
