Rush PAPER,

Very little paper has been made OF
late years from rags. Vegetable sub
stances are employed, as alta, wood
and straw; the idea has not prevailed
that the wild or cultivated rush can be
employed for this purpose. But an in
ventor has ascertained that when suit
ably treated, the plant will produce q
very white and consistent paper pulp
by means of the following treatment:
One thousand kilogrammes of the
green rush, cut up as fine as possible
is mingled with a caustic I've of 30 de-
grees b., and boiled In an autoclave for
five or six hours under pressure OF
six kilogrammes at 10 degrees c. The
pulp is washed with water, sulphuriC
acid in suitable quantity added, then
bleached with chloride of lime and
washed energeticaily. 1t is then suit.

IMMUNITY FROM PNEUMONIA
May Be Ensured by Healthy Living
and Attention to Sanitary
Conditions.


Though modern medical science has
decided that pneumonia Is an infec-
Gous disease that fact need not ter
rify If one take little trouble to
learn something about tie diesase. 1t
is produced by special microbe the
existence of which is SO common in
the mouth of even healthy individuals
that II is considered almost as nor
NAL inhabitant OF the upper part OF
the digestive tract. One reason why
the saliva of human being Is likely
to prove fatal to animals If injected
simultaneously is because the special
property Of the germ Is to produce pus
whenever II gains entrance directly
under the tissues. II does not pro-
duce a purulent inflammation in pneu-
monia, because II lies on the mucous
membrane of the lungs. but does not
gain an entrance into the tissues.
Sometimes 1t finds its way into the
blood, but does not produce serious re-
suits unless the patient is much run
down.
From these facts II can be seen that
pneumonia Is contracted is exceeding
ly difficult. The presence of the germ
Is not sufficient alone to produce the
disease, but there must be certain
predisposition on the part of the pa!
tient, followed by the deposition OF
this germ on mucous membrane.
Though the method of the distribu.
ton of the disease is not known def.
fnitely 1t Is acquired by mingling with
crowds at time when one is extreme
ly tired. or when, for some reason or
other, the interval since taking food
has been longer than usual.
DR.. Anders, who Is an authority on
climatology, says in an article on lobar
pneumonia: "The coincidence of ex-
listing low temperatures. high baro-
metric pressure, the direction and ve-
locity of the wind and maximum NOR
tality from pneumonia is so uniformly
constant as to suggest close and d.
rect relation between their combined
influence and the progress of mortal
ity from pneumonia But" he adds
the major influence by the seasons,
however. is probably not direct, that
is, by a lowering of the bodily tenn
perature resistance due to the low
temperature. high barometric pressure
direction and velocity of the wind
etc. but indirect, namely, by bringing
about that effective element in the
causation, concentration and increased
virulence of the specific poison in con.
sequence OF closed doors and windows
and lack of free ventilation"
From these facts we see that we
may procure immunity from pneu.
monia by healthy living, and that san.
itary conditions are needed rather
than protective serums The japanese
give us lesson in this, for they are
essentially people who live in fresh
air and sunshine. Personal cleanliness.
Is another factor in the prevention oil
tuberculosis and pneumonia, which are
house diseases.

Unless early and correct treatment Is
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease is fastened upon
her. We believe Lydia T.. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is the most eff
cicnt treatment for chronic kidney
troubles of women, and is the only med
icine especially prepared for this
purpose.
When woman is troubled with pain
or weight in loins, baclache, frequent,
painful or scalding urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys or notices a
sediment in the urine, she should
lose no time in commencing treatment
with Lydia Il. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound, as it may be the means of
saving her life.

FISH ROE IN GREAT DEMAND
Good Prices offered in France for I'm
portant Product of Atlantic
Coast Fisheries.

There Is now offered to the fisher
men of the New England coast q ready
and profitable market in France for
product Of the cod, hake and pollock
fisheries.
"The sardine fishery, valuable in
dustry of France" says Consul Gen.
eral Mason. us confined principally to
the $50 mile stretch of the Atlantic
coast from Lorient to the mouth OF the
Gironde, the principal mart Of the sar-
dine fisherman being at Les Sables
d'Olonne. The sardine spawns In
deep water and comes about five
months of the year to shallow waters
along the coast In search of food. The
different minute marine growths
which form the natural food of the
sardine have become depleted, and In
order to attract and retain the i'm.
mense shoals Of that fish on the
French coast the fishermen have been
Obliged for years to feed or bait the
sardines with some material as similar
as possible to their natural food. For
this purpose the main recourse OF the
fisherman has been to the roe or eggs
OF goldfish and mackerel, derived from
the fisheries of Norway, picked In salt
brine, packed in wooden barrels and
imported to France under the name
of roe or Goldfish and mackerel, dutia.
BILE at 16 cents per long ton.
"There are engaged In the French
sardine fishery about 1000 boats, each
of which uses under ordinary condi.
lions about 25 barrels of roe during
the fishing season of each year. or
this vast quantity about 10000 bar
rels per anr have been derived from
the Scanda ian fisheries, some from
the French cod fisheries N the coast
of Newfoundland and a small guam
tity from the United States. The
price, delivered in France, has ranged
from s12 to $40 per barrel, but this
year for some reason the supply from
Norway has been abnormally small,
and the price has advanced to nearly
$50 per barrel"

"Tar" for Sailor,

Why is the word tar" synonym
for ''sailor?" Some Dictionaries say
that the allusion is to the seaman's
tarry hands and clothes-the "savor of
tar" of Stephano's song in "The Tenn
pest" Burns uses "tarrybreeks" as
equivalent to sailor" But It is re.
garded as much more probable that
tar" is short for "tarpaulin," since
Clarendon and other writer's col
loquilly use "tarpaulin" to signify a
seaman. or course, this ultimately
gets back to tar, tarpaulin being a
tarred "palling," or covering (the
same word as "pall").

OLD PED STARTS Weston on a Walk from Philadelphia to New YoTk---The Dis-
 tance to be made
 in 24 Hours.

New York, May 23,----A special to the Tribune from Philadelphia says: Full of confidence in his ability to break his own record of twenty-five years ago. Edward Payson Weston, the veteran pedestrian, who is 6S years old, started from the north ter race of the city hall at 12:O5 o'clock this morning to walk to the New York city hall in twenty-four con- secutive hours. The distance is ninety-two miles.
 Accompanying the walker are two physicians, who will cover the dis tance in carriage and keep close watch upon the pedestrians, making observations in the interest of sci ence. In the carriage is supply of liquid food, which will be Weston's sole sustenance on the trip, although he will have all the water he wants to drink.
 Weston wears the shoes in which he won the noted Astley belt many years ago. Thirty-f1ve years ago Weston was the object of study by physicians in walk of 320 miles in five days. The records taken by the physicians at that time will be of use for comparison in the present trip.

GIRGENTl THE BEAUTIFUL.
No Place Of Ruins in the Whole World More Beautiful
 Than This.

Writes William Sharpe in "The Gar den of the Sun," in Century: Every one has heard of Girgenti, as of Syra. cuse, before coming to Sicily. The most beautiful city of antiquity has left an enduring name, and if the Cir genti of to-day be far from the Agri- gentum of Roman splendor, and still further from the Acragas of Green beauty and magnificence, it is still nobly worth seeing. Even the least responsive imagination can hardly fail to apprehend some idea of what this town must have been of old, when Acragas, with its vast extent and over 100000 inhabitants. looked out across the dark-blue waters of the Greek sea, or Mare Africano, from a lordly will derness of supreb temples and magnif- cent buildings of all kinds. To-day it is worth pilgrimage from the ends of the earth There is perhaps no place of ruin in the whole world more beautiful than this To see it, as the present writer last saw it, in gold en sunset glow, with the great temples gleaming like yellow ivory, and the town itself of dusky gold, and the sea beyond. and uplands and noun tains behind, irridated with serene glory of light, is to see what will be for life an unforgettable impression, an ever deeply moving remembrance
 To localize the three loveliest views in Sicily (and fancy that most tray. elers would agree with mel. should specify that from the terrace of the Hotel Timeo at Taormina, that from the monastery-hostelry of Madonna del Tindaro over Tyndaris and the Aeoiian isles. and that from the ter race of the Hotel Belvidere on the south wall of Girgenti,. looking ont on the lovely otemplesSithe beautiful tip. lands and slopes, and the blue sea washing Porto Empedocle below.

BELL" STEERING BACK
He Won the Marathon Race, Beating fift-Eight of the Worlds Best
 Runners -H His Mother Said He'd Win.

When Bill Sperring left Hamilton, Ontario. for New York, to take the boat which would land him at Athens for the Olympic games, he was plain, everyday Bill, clerk employed by the Grand Trunk railway. He rode in an ordinary day coach and carried a lunch in a large napkin.
 Bill won the Marathon race, beat ing fifty-eight runners from all over the world. Saturday William J. Sperring landed from the steamship Campania on the return trip. A DOT ter carried his grip, containing one pair of trunks, Turkish towel, a pair of running shoes, some collars and cuffs and an extra shirt, along with bottle of rub-down liniment, from the first cabin apartments which Mir Sperring was able to engage with a part of the SIC. 900 cabled him by wildly enthusiastic Canadians when the news of his great victory was flashed over the cable to the lit tie town in Ontario.
 A delegation of Canadians did not see Bill Sperring off when he left for Athens. But Saturday band of men from over the line rushed up 'the gang plank to shake the hands of William ]. Sperring and tell him that they knew he'd win.
 Bill Sperring never bragged in his life. When he left the little Cana dian town his loving mother threw her hands around his sturdy neck and with tears streaming down her kindly looking face told him that she was certain he would take the cup. Bill hugged his dearest and closest friend to his heart, kissed her again and again and started in the day coach.
 To-day William J. Sperring, the world famous runner and athlete, the man who was entertained by the king of England and the king of Greece. took parlor car for Buffalo. There the Grand Trunk railway will have a special Pullman coach with a delegation of the most influential men in Canada waiting for Mir Sper- ring, and he will be the hero of the men who live under Britain's blood stained Union Jack.
 Saturday night Canadians in New
 
 York entertained Mir Sperring. They gloried in his deeds and the fame he had brought the mother land.
 But there is one thing Sperring wants to hear above all others on this earth. He longs for the moment he will step from the luxurious pal ace car at Hamilton. Ontario. feel the slender arms of woman around his neck and hear through her sobs of welcome that one magic sound, My boyH
 For William ]. Sperring thinks lit tie of fame. He knows that all the display and pomp and the s10,oOO which Canada subscribed for him is due to the fact that he beat fifty eight of the greatest long distance runners on earth in the heart-break- ing twenty-six miles of road which constitutes the Marathon race.
 But he knows the love of that mother in Canada is enduring. not because of his worldwide fame. but simply because he is-her boy.
