Beer Stems.

New York Times: Some beer stems are
made in this country, but they do not cut
any figure in the trade. Germans, who
arc the principal buyers OF stems, know
an imported from a domestic article as
a gardener knows his flowers. A man
who has spent his youth in Germany,
especially if he knows anything of the
student life, can tell by merely glancing
at a stein, in what part of the fatherland
IL was manufactured.
The largest stems imported hold about
light pints Of beer. In Germany they are
used in beer halls patronized by univer-
sity students at Heidelberk and else
where. In this country the Germans buy
them for presents. The greatest compli-
ment one German can pay another is to
present him with one of these highly dec,
Grated stems, on which is implanted a
familiar picture in colored clay Of his boy
hood home, the home of his ancestors, or
some incident in German history.
Anywhere from $50 to $50 may be spent
on a stein of this sort, and The manufac-
turers in Germany give such a wide va
riety OF their native scenery that a very
few stems are made to order.
The smallest stein holds exactly one
eighth of a pint. These are seldom seen
in barrooms or rathskellers, even for ex-
hibition purposes. They are presented to
children in families, just as the English
and Americans present china and porce-
lain cups, with the name of the baby
printed thereon in ornate colored letters
These small stems. like the large ones
generally record some incident In Ger.
man literature, and sometimes cost al
most as much as the big ones. Two dol
lars for a small stein of this description
is a very moderate price to pay.
All imported stems are porcelain lined
The cheapest sort. such as are ordinarily
kept on bars In ice packed tubs durl,y
the summer, cost Is cents each. There a.
q heavy duty on them.

Questions Hard TO. Answer.
From the Philadelphia Enquirer.

Can you understand
Why a man who has to pay his wife's
dressmaking and cleaning bills will sit in
a street car with one foot across his knee.
so that every woman who passes him
must brush her frock against the dirty
sole OF his shoe?
Why any woman who has ever watched
a newsboy or an Italian peanut vender
max change win slip a dime or nickel into
her mouth while she is using both hands
TO investigate her purse or bag?
Why a man who in bearing and dress
is to all intents a gentleman can sit in
q crowded street car with a half-cold or
smouldering cigar in his hand until the
odor from that stub will sicken all the
women and most of the men In his yicin-
ity?
Why a pretty girl who talks in a loud
voice in public places imagines that all
men who are watching her furtively or
openly are lost in admiration?
Why a man In q ovid street car
woulc rather open and shut the front door
for twenty women than move down two
feet and hang on a strap?
Why a woman will walk seven blocks
to save two cents a yard on n piece of
silk and then fail to observe that the
pubLhN ~ AoluiiS OUT TIE DOflSS anu tTlnl-
mings of her Sunday roast, and the iceman
is occasionally adding an extra five cents
TO his bill?
Why a man Will dodge trolleys, drays
and policemen I'm a mad rush 60 reach
his office and then line up with messenger
boys. tourists and other men presumably
as busy as himself TO watch a fire company
turn a stream of water on a twopenny
blaze?
Why a woman will rush recklessly In
front of a moving trolley car to greet a
friend and then threaten to sue the motor
company because its man almost ran her
down?

FEvER'S AFTER EFFECTS

fever the nerves are always profoundly
disturbed, and when it is over they are
left SO sensitive that the patient has ia

tonic treatment then demanded, regard
must be paid not only to building up flesh
but also to strengthening the nerves. A
remedy that will do both, make sound
flesh to repair waste aud give new vigor
to feeble nerves, is the most convenient
and economical. Such q remedy is DR..

Presidential Postmasters Will Not Come

Presidential Postmasters Will Not Come
 Under Civil Service.
 Washington Special to Indianapolis
 Star.
 Tn the matter of extending civil ser vice over presidential postmasters. 1t seems to have been a case of marching bravely up the hill and then marching down again. At first it was announced on the authority of the Postmaster General himself that no postmaster would be removed except for cause.
 That announcement aroused Con- gressmen from one ocean to the other. Hurry-up letters and telegrams have been pouring in at the Department. and Congressman who live within easy reach of Washington have hastened to come in person to raise their voices in protest.
 The latest indication is that some- body has capitulated and that that sonre- body is not the Congressmen. The Postmaster Generals determination to extend the merit system to presidential postmasters. as well as fourth -class officials, has suffered a severe strain. The new policy. after being in vogue only few days. has been modified. In fact, it has given place to another rule. W HUH ID tO Luc SiItCt WucH6NcT d presidential postmaster's term expires he will step down and out, unless he can secure the indorsement of his Com gressman for reappointment.
 Merit System Abandoned.
 The effect of the latest policy is to abandon the undertaking of extending the merit system to cover presidential postmasters. It will be applied, how ever. with great rigldity, it is said, to fourthclass postmasters. of whom there are about 75.000 in the country who are assured of continuous tenure dur ing good behavior.
 Several members of Congress who called on the Postmaster GeneraIrw assured that the administration would not encroach on their old-time prerog- ative of recommending presidential postmasters. but that they will have no more to say about the removal of fourth class officials
 This Is a direct face-about, as far as presidential appointments are con- cerned, from the policy laid down by the Postmaster General only a few days ago.

SPIDERS WONDERFUL SILK.
Withstands Heat That Cracks Lense of
 MlcrOmeter.


 The astronomer after the experience of many years has found that the spi- der furnishes the only thread which can be successfully used in carrying on his work.
 The spider lines mostly used are from one-fifth to ten seventh of a thou sandth of an inch in diameter, and, in addition to their strength and elasti- city, they have the peculiar property of withstanding great changes of temper ature, and often when measuring the sun spots, although the heat is so in- tense as to crack the lense of the mi crometer eyepiece, yet the spider lines are not in the least injured. The threads of the silkworm, all product. are so coarse and rough com pared with the silk of the spider that | they can not be used Tn such instru- ments.
 Spider lines, although but fraction of a thousandth of an inch in diame- l ter. are made up of several thousands of microscopic streams of fluid, which unite and form a single line, and it is | because of this that they remain true and round under the highest magnify | ing power.
 | An instance of the durability of the spider lines is found at the Alleghany observatory. where the same set of | lines in the micrometer of the transit instrument has been in use since 1Q50

This story Is making the rounds of the press in Europe: The story was told me by a Nilhist who declared 1t to be true. An eminent German spec ialist was recently consulted by the czar about the health of his heir. The German made an examination pursed up his mouth and seemed dissatisfied. L"Well." said the emperor, what Is ,the matter? I insist upon knowing" "In that case" quoth the blunt Teuton, "I shall tell you.

E. G. Fowler Has Simple Remedy That
 Is Guaranteed to Cure the Trouble.

Is Guaranteed to Cure the Trouble.
 No one word better expresses ths condition of the sufferer from weak stomach or indigestion than "mis- cry" The stomach Is weak and can not digest the food, so that there is no appetite, there are pains and griping in the stomach and bowels. the head and back ache. and the misery goes to ev- cry organ.
 Strengthen the stomach and the di- gestive system by the use of Mi-o-na. This is the only stomach remedy known that gives relief by strengthening the stomach and digestive organs. It is this principle that makes 1t a certain cure for indigestion. Other medicines may give temporary relief by helping digest the food but they do not strengthen the stomach. and that or gan gets weaker and weaker all the time.
 E. G. Fowler. the reliable retail druggist, has so much confidence in this remarkable remedy that he guar antees a cure, or the money will be re- funded. Mi-o-na costs but 50 cents a box Ask to see the strong guarantee given with every box.
 Mi-o-na Is in tablet form and should be taken before each meal Other rem edies for stomach troubles and indi- Eestion are taken after the meal, and decompose the good food you eat. but Mi-o-na used before eating strength ems the stomach, soothes and heals all irritation and inflammation, enriches the blood, and puts the stomach in such healthy condition that 1t will take care of the food itself and there will be no pain and suffering Mch 16-27-Apr 6.
