Men In PetticOats.

1t will probably be a matter of sur
prise TO the general reader to learn
that the petticoat was first worn ex
clusively by men. In the reign Of King
Henry VII. the dress of the English
was so fantastic and absurd that it was
difficult to distinguish one sex from the
other. In the inventory Of Henry V
appears "petticoat of red damasE
with open sleeves" There is no men
ton of woman's petticOat before the
Tudor period. -

LETTER TOE. MITCHELL.
BELFAST, MAINE.


Dear Sir: The cheapest thing in the
way of sending anything over the world is
q postage stamp; and the cheapest way to
shed water is paint.
Not whitewash; paint. Do you happen
to know-it don't belong to your business to
know about paint, you knOw-dO you hap
pen to know that most of the makers Of
paint stuff it out with lime and clay and
sand and water and air?
They do stuff it out in the can but not on
the house. They make more gallons to sell
or to. buy; more money to pay for paint /;
more money to pay for putting it on !;
but no more beauty; more rust; decay dis
appointment; loss.
Devoe is your paint, because it's all paint,
no sham, and full measure.
Yours truly
F. W. Devoe & Co.
P. S. Mason q Hall sell our paint.

it did not cause, his death. The de-
ceased was born in Philadelphia, Pa,
and had travelled in many parts of the
world, had been gold seeker in Cal
ifornia in 40, having made the voy-
age around the ''Horn.' At an age
when most men are settling down to
live at their ease, he came to Kansas
and took up the homestead one mile
east of what is now Fellsburg, being
one of the pioneers in this locality.
He was man of vigorous intellect
and scrupulOus honesty, and possessed
a rugged strength of character that
won him the respect of all who knew
him. Mr.. Fell survived mis- wife a
little over one year. The funeral SER
vices were held from the old home
stead and the interment took place at
the Trotter cemetery. Among the
large crowd that attended. the funeral
the large number of pioneer settlers
was especially noticeable. The sym
pathy of the community is extended to
the relatives of the deceased in their
hour of affection.

THE RESULT OF ACCIDENT.
Unexpected Discoveries from Which
Meath Was Made.

1t often happens that an ignorant
man will stumble upon an invention
which clever men have been working
over for years. At one time all the
gum used in England was made from
gum arabic and cost no end OF money.
1t happened one night that a big
starch factory on the banks of the
Liffey, near Dublin, took fire and
great puddles of starch and water
were found outside.
Some calico printers who had been
making an evening of it came by. and.
being very tipsy, one of them tum-
bled into the sticky mess. Next morn
ing. when he tried to dress, all his
clothes were stuck tight together as
if they had been dipped in glue, and
the wretched man was obliged to stay
in bed till his wife had soaked them
In clean water.
The man, from his trade, knew how
valuable this gum was, and taking the
rest of the party into his confidence
they experimental by scorching
starch on fire shovel. They found 1t
made excellent gum when mixed with
water, and it was this invention which
enabled postage stamps to be pro-
Guced in an adhesive form.

The republican congressional con-
vention was held in Wichita Tuesday
and resulted in the denomination of
Victor Murdoch. The delegation
from this county was on hand and did
their part-hollere6. That's all there
was to do. The republican state con-
vention was held the following day
and resulted in the nomination of
Mr.. HOch for governor and the rest
of the slate. There were no contests
worth mentioning. There was a very
decided Discrimination on the part of
the delegates to vote for Kelly but no
one had been in the field against him
and he was easily renominated. The
delegation from this county could not
agree on Kelly and so refused to vote.
The commercial interests of the state,
through their organizations, asked
for a voice in naming candidates for
railroad commissioners but seemed
not to have received the consideration
they thought they deserved and were
disappointed. The Kelly delegates
from Miami county had to be seated
because of the fact that Kelly was to
be nominated although it was general
Iy believed that they had no rights in
the convention. Had the contests
been decided differently it would have
made trouble for Mr.. Bowersock in
his fight for the congressional nomi-
nation in the second district. The
new machine which is operating and
directing the republican ranks seems
to have all of the evils of the old one
with lot OF new tangled notions
thrown in. The machine is dead,
long live the machine.

OLIVE OF ANCIENT LINEAGE.
Trees 1000 Years Old Are Still Bear
inc Fruit.

Trees 1000 Years Old Are Stiit oedr
ing Fruit.
The olive that the bartender drops
into the popular cocktail is an old
campaigner. Wine drinkers thousands
of years ago liked it, and for centuries
no banquet has been considered COM
plete without it.
The tree, olea Europea, is not only
one of the oldest trees known to natu-
ralists, but its longevity and produc-
tivity are astounding. Several OF
these trees over twenty feet in cir
conference, according to the scien-
tifc calculation of foot for GEN.
fury, must have been bearing fruit be-
fore the Savior walked and talked on
the mount of Olives.
The olive has been symbol in
more than one mythology. The dove
bringing the branch to the ark gave
it to the Imagination of the Orient as
an emblem of peace or confidence re-
stored. Among the Greeks it was the
sign of peace and the placid power Of
wisdom.
Though a native of Syria, and pos
sibly Of southern Greece, the olive
fourishes anywhere in a mild climate.
Western Asia, southern Europe, north
ern Africa, southern England. South
America, Mexico-in all these places
the olive grows readily. taking on an
average seven years before bearing
fruit.
Two hundred years ago it was in
troduced into California by priests
from Mexico, and there it has thriven
nightly. In South Carolina it is
hardy and fruitful. but unfortunately
the crop natures there just when all
labor is needed in the cotton fields.
THE fruit is too bitter to eat unless
picked. Ranging in size from an
acorn to a large plum, it is gathered
green and placed in a strong solution
of potash or I've of wood ashes. When
the olives change color this denotes
that the potash has struck through
the stone and they are placed in wat
er, renewed several times a day, for
| five days.-New York Herald.

who paid this money in, in addition
to the sum necessary to liquidate the
