BERRIES FOR RHEUMATISM.
Despite the Tradition, Some Say That
They Are Curative.

Despite the Tradition, Some Say That
They Are Curative.
That Strawberries are injurious to
rheumatic persons" is as old a tradi-
ton as that tomatoes Glove apples)
are conducive to love. But against
science no tradition is safe. 1t is now
asserted that strawberries are really
the real thing" in food for rheumat-
les. Linnaeus, it is said, kept himself
free from rheumatism by eating straw
berries. Fontenelli, another naturalist,
attributed his longevity to strawber-
ries. He resorted to them as a medi-
cine and would frequently say: IF
can but reach the season of strawber
ries!"
BOrheave is said to have classed the
strawberry with the principal red fruit
remedies, containing iron as we'll as
PHOSPHORUS, salt, sulphur and sugar.
1t has long been tradition that the
chief demand for horse chestnuts has
come from persons who believe in
their efficacy as cure for rheumatism,
or at least a palliative in rheumatic
affections. Strawberries have hereto
fore been barred, but if they now have
all the merits claimed for them, or
indeed any of the merits, the bars will
be down and stay down permanently.

looked at it for long time without a

imagine. The whole awful, awful bus
mess came back to him. The mad

president. Still, without word, he
put it back in it's place, and it seemed
to me as he did SO that he kissed 1T
with his fingers. I have seen him in
that room look at it silently over his
pipe many and many time. But ne

The late Samuel Colcord Bartlett,
when president of Dartmouth college,
was not exactly enthusiastic over ath-
letics, but was, nevertheless, often
pretty we'll informed when the stu
dents thought him Indifferent.
At the time when the following incl
dent is said to have occurred, the
baseball team was composed of hard
hitting but rather slow and clumsy
nIayers, who had lost several close
games at home by slow and stupid
base running.
One night, the president, nervous
and tired, finding himself unable to
sleep. quietly drew on his clothes and
started for a short walk across the
campus, in the hope of quoting his
nerves. Now it happened that about
the same time a couple of students
who had been assisting classmate in
celebrating his birthday started to re-
turn to their rooms.

Since he was two years old he has
eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He
demands and gets this fod three
times a day. This may seem rather
unusual, but he does not care for any
thing else after he has eaten his
Grape Nuts, which he uses with milk
Or cream, and then he is through with
his meal Even on Thanksgiving day
he refused turkey and all the good
things that make up that great din
ner, and ate his dish of Grape Nuts
and cream with the best results and
none of the evils that the other fool

Niagara Falls, August THE
volume of water being diverted
from the historic Niagara Falls is
reaching such proportions that the
people of the State are trying to pass
laws which will prevent the possibil-
ity of a practical wiping out Of this
sublime natural spectacle
Water sufficient to develop nearly
five hundred thousand horsepower
continuously, twenty-four hours per
day, for industrial purposes, is now
being taken from the river above the
Falls, and further developments re-
curing more water are contemplated.
, Probably the largest user of the
electricity produced by the waters of
the mighty river is the concern which
by the five or six thousand degree
heat of the electric furnace brings
lime and coke into unwilling union,
thereby producing what is known as
Calcium Carbide.
Dry calcium carbide is lifeless as
so much broken rock, but in contact
with water it springs into activity and
begets abundantly the gas Acetylene.
The light resulting from the ignition
Of acetylene is the nearest approach
to sunlight known.
These facts, though of compare
lively recent discovery, were soon
seized by men with an eye to the COM
mercial possibilities and today cal
cium carbide is being shipped every
where and used for dispelling dark
ness in buildings of all descriptions,
from the ordinary barn Of the farmer
to the country villa of the wealthy. as
well as for lighting the streets of a
large number of towns. Acetylene
can be easily and cheaply installed,
and the manufacture and sale Of
acetylene generators has become a
business of recognized standing, has
assumed large proportions and is
steadily growing.

In Laurence Hutton's Talks in a
Library he tells of dinner he gave
to Sir Henry Irving: can unexpected
guest at that dinner was Mr.. Clemens.
He would certainly have been invited
had his presence in the city been
known. He had arrived from Hart
ford late in the afternoon, had discov
cred from the gossip at the club that
the Huttons were having "a rather I'M
usual dinner party was told, who were
to be present, and decided that it was
too good thing to lose. So he dressed
hurriedly, walked in without ceremony
just as the feast began, drew up a
chair by the side of his hostess, helped
himself to her oysters and for the rest

Hutton and Edwin Booth were the
closest of friends. Hutton possessed
one of the best collections in exist
ence of death masks, and it was while
Booth was examining this that most
impressive incident occurred. Says
Hutton: 81 shall never forget the first
time he saw the lincoln mask. He
asked, innocently enough, whose it

Ii HUNG CHANCES TREES.
Those He Planted at Grants Tomb in
1897 Did Not Thrive.


The trees planted on the lawn at the
north side of Grants tomb in May,
1897, by Ii Hung Chang have not
thrived as they should. Ever since the
trees were planted the souvenir hunt
ers have been plucking twigs from
them, preventing their growth to a
great degree, 1t is no uncommon thing
to see a couple of women approach the
&rees, glance furtively around and then
snatch twigs from the trees and put
them quickly out of sight. 1t has al
Ways been expected that the park de-
partment, which controls the surround
ings of the tomb, would place railing
around the trees, but it has never been
done. When Gen. Grant planted trees
at Toxic, Japan, not only where they
protected by railing, but guard Of
soldiers was kept constantly on duty
around them.-New York Sun.

upon the grotesque. The idea of elm
mating every man whose teeth do not
satisfy an exacting dentist might also
have been borrowed from Gideon. One
