He Cancelled the Date.

The famous orator starts for his
home, revolving in his mind the
groundwork of the grafton he is to
prepare. The title shall be "The Land
of the Free" and his talk shall be one
in which special stress Is laid upon
the great blessing of liberty, which
one and all enjoy. AS he hastens down
the street he is stopped by a police
man, who makes him go back and
pick up a crumpled envelope he has
thrown upon the sidewalk; farther
along another policeman orders him
to move on, when he is merely stand
ing in front of a show window trying
to decide upon a white vest; near his
home he is ordered to go around the
block by a third policeman who is
guarding the fire lines-a barn in an
alley is burning; at his gate he is met
by the tax assessor, and when he
enters the houses he is given a no.
tice from the health department to
cas- throwing rubbish in the alley.
Instead of writing his address he
writes a letter canceling the engage
ment.-Cleveland Leader.

SMILE THEIR STOCK IN TRADE.
French and Japanese Women Know
Value Of Parted Lips.

Sfs
The next of the French beauty Sc
crets relates to the smile. The French
mi smiles a great deal. 1t is a
queer little smile, and sometimes, like
her shrug. it looks artificial. But it
is her stock in trade. Without her
smile the Frenchwoman would be far
less attractive than she is.
The only other nation in the world
that understands the art Of smiling is
the Japanese, continues the Boston
Herald. The Japanese woman knows
all about the smile.
The Frenchwoman understands the
secret of the smile and the value of it.
At your first bon-mot she will smile.
At your second she will smile and
shrug her shoulders appreciatively.
She will smile at your witticisms and
fatter you into thinking they are good.
She is wonderful in her smile, is the
Frenchwoman. It is a wide, beautiful
smile, and she shows a fine row Of
perfectly kept teeth. Smile often and
show your teeth is one of the French
beauty p%recepts.
The Frenchwoman will bleach her
cheeks until they are clear and
creamy, but she will keep her lips red,
for she knows that red lips set off
white teeth and make the mouth win
ming.

hardships Of Farming.

Little Dick has been thinking for
some time that he would like to be q
farmer when he grows up. The other
evening he toddled to his fathers side
on the veranda and asked:
what do I have to do in the even.
ing when I hes a farmer?"
why" said his father. "you have
to sit on the porch of your farmhouse,
like this. with your feet up on the
rail-"
Dick watched his father put his feet
up and tried to do the same with his
very short and fat little legs. The
rail was SO high that he had to sit
nearly on the back of his head in or.
der to get his feet up, and before
many moments he slipped down and
landed on the veranda floor with a
bump.
He got up and rubbed himself. Then
he said:
Maybe I don't want to be a farmer
after all. I might change my mind
and be something else"

"Befo' de wah" all members were
clean shaver, wore black frocks and
high stocks, beavers, peg-top trousers,
and a solemn air of public Importance

their hearts that they were statesmen.
and the world acknowledged them as
such. Dignity was their chief quality.
pride their most cherished possession.

I said nothing further, and after
about ten minutes had passed, during
which time the farmer seemed to be
doing some thinking, he all at once
turned and said:

ALCOHOL N MOAB MaDic,hEs.

JNdiepensable Requisite In Compound.
ln0 Of oOno Prescriptions.
It ID Of course true that some pro-
prietary medicines contain alcohol and
nearly all liquid medicines prescribed
BY physicians contain It. No honest
man win defend the sale OF intoxi-
cants under the guise Of medicine: but
every honest man should protest
against Z system OF wholesale denun-
citation born of malice or ignorance
OF pharmaceutical principles and fos-
tered by selfish interests. 1t is as
sumed that alcohol Is the u OF in
temperance; but there is a great diff
ference between alcohol and whisky.
II q substitute for alcohol could be
found for 9 in the manufacture of
medicines its d~iscoverer would render
. great service to the profession of
pharmacy and the science Of medf-
cine, Ter alcohol lie a very expensive
ingredient and q cheaper substitute
wo1la-be, gladly accepted. Unfortun-
ately the word alcohol In the minds Of
many people is associated exclu-
sively with bar-rooms, drunkenness
and all forms Of degradation and vice.
This Is due to a lack of knowledge
By the general public Of the fact that
alcohol is an Indispensable requisite
IN drugs, ~tinctures and fluid extracts.
All duid extracts and tinctures on the
druggists shelves contain from 20 to
90 per cent Of alcohol; and Of all
liquid medicines prescribed by ply
siciaas more than rs per cent contain
It in large proportions.
Alcohol Is required to preserve or.
ganic substances from deterioration
and from freezing, and it is also re
Quired to dissolve substances not solu.
Bile In water, while 1t contributes to
their preservation, when dissolved,
Diluted alcohol Is largely employed in
MUD extracts: and whenever a greater
strength Of alcohol Is required as q
solvent (for extracting medicinal prin.
ciplee) the medicine is of such a char
acter as to preclude a large dosage:
and for this reason preparations. ever
IS containing SO per cent or more OF
alcohol are practically less intoxicat.
ing than beer. In such cases the
character OF the medicinal constituents
- such as to absolutely forbid the
taking of the medicine In any way
except in very small doses and at
stated intervals only. To assume that
any great number of proprietary med
lcines are used as beverages is the
yeriest MISUNDERSTANDING.

A Kick About Kids.

scant yard from his house
Attired In q patent leather belt and q
much beruffled blouse;
And as for kids Will sandals, whee! what
deep, unmeasured JOY
One look at him would ave aroused In

According to law, there must be two

JNTY, MISS, FRIDAY, APRIL %, 1905


Washington. -On April l, in esti-
mating the value Of foreign coins for
custom purposes, the Secretary of the
Treasury proclaimed the value Of the
Mexican silver dollar for the quarter
commencing on that day at All cents
for the month of April, and 49.S cents
after May l. In commenting on the
reason for this action, Assistant Sec
retary Keep said:
'sThe change in value on May / Is
iue to the fact that Mexico adopts the
gold standard on that date and the
value Of the Mexico dollar passes
from bullion basis, which fuctuates
with the price of silver to fixed
value based on the agreement of the
Mexican Government to redeem III
gold. This redemption in gold by the
Mexican Government is, however, con-
fined to Mexican dollars circulating
in Mexico. Such dollars circulate in
other countries, particularly in China
The Department has decided that fol
customs purposes where invoices are
expressed in Mexican dollars the value
Of such dollars after May shall be
computed as follows:
"0n goods imported from Mexico

A black iron monster, with re-
versible front and corridor extend
ing from end to end and communicate
ing with the cars it draws-such is
the general appearance of the famous
electric locomotive.
In nontechnical language, says a
writer in the Review of Reviews, it
consists of ninety-five-ton engine on
four driving axles, the motive power
being produced directly without inter-
mediate gearing, from powerful elec-
trio motor, developing capacity of
1000 horsepower, which can be in
creased to 5000. The method is by
the third rail, section of six miles
in the open country west of Schen-
ectady having been equipped espe-
sally for this trial by the General
Electric company, which also furn-
ished the power for the tests. The
third rail was protected by wooden
hood, so that no one could reach it
unless he tried.
At crossings or other places where
the third rail was interrupted the
motive power was supplied by con.
nection with an overhead wire, troll.
ley from the locomotive meeting at
these points by means of a pneu
matte device controlled by the engi
neer The frame of the locomotive
is of steel, which acts also as part
of the magnetic circuit for the motors

The notorious M. l.. Reddoch, who

al Yazco City, has been indicted in
the Fede.a al court at st. Louis for per-
jury growing out Of a letter he had
written charging that member of Con-
gress from North Carolina had accept
ed money to secure the release of a
Federal prisoner. Reddoch says he
will have no trouble in giving bail
as he has plenty Of influential friends
in Mississippi. The investigation was
made at the request of President
Roosevelt, however, Mr.. Reddoch
does not seem to be the least worried
about the indictment and arrest, and
Is disposed to regard it in a jocular
manner. He says he has been in
tight places before and has always sue
ceeded in getting out, and that he will
get out of this scrape without going tc
the penitentiary. He says he knows 9
great deal and will tell it when he is
placed on trial. Reddock is smart,
careless, happy-go-devil of fellow
and does not seem the least annoyed
He laughs and jokes with reporters as
though he was the hero in some thrill
ing adventure that was destined tc
make him famous. He appears rath-
er pleased and happy, than detected
and worried, his manner being just
the opposite of most prisoners.
