Shot Big Mountain Lion.

One of the biggest mountain lions seen
in Oklahoma for years, measuring over
8 feet from tip to tip and weighing 175
pounds, was killed in a cave in the gyp
hills, near here. by George Steubenville
of Okeene.
He came upon the lion unexpectedly,
while exploring the cave with a party of
friends, and was armed only with a %
caliber revolver. 1t had been known for
some weeks that a marauder of some
sort, presumably a mountain lion, was
playing havoc with poultry and calves.
it had been seen disappearing in the
darkness several times, but no one had
gone near enough to get shot at it.
Steubenville vas the only one of the
party who was armed at all when they
came upon the beast, which was evident
" prepared to put up a stiff fight. The
cave was dimly lighted by lantern car
ried by the exploring party, which made
good craftsmanship difficult, but Steu-

other glassware cannot be cleaned in a
dish washing machine, on account of the
liability to breakage. In the contrivance
shown here the glasses are placed inside
of a metal casing, the sides and bottom
of the latter being perforated with in
Vulnerable holes. Water is fed into an
inner lining of the casing, the water be
ing thus forced out through the holes in
tiny jets Obviously the glasses are
cleaned both inside and outside, by the
sprays from the bottom and sides respec-

can be placed over a small brush at the
side of the casing, the brush being oper-
ated by a treadle.
When in use the casing can be placed
advantageously over a sink. to winch a
drain pipe can be attached. Such an
apparatus would be found useful in bar
rooms. hotels, and other places where
a large number of glasses are used.

ODD FORM OF TREE GRATING.
row Mexlcans Have Secured Curious Eff
tects IN Wood Coloring.

Some owners Of forests of valuable
WOODS are trying experiments in the
southern part of Mexico with the walnut
trees. 1t is not generally known out
side the trade that there are many kinds
OF walnut woods and that only part of
them have so far been considered valu-
able from commercial point of view.
Now the scheme is to make these less
Valua bic or worthless walnuts CONNER
cially valuable. And the process is a
curious one.
1t consists of opening the roots of
the trees and inserting one or more nuts.
which are quite small from the best va
rletes OF walnut trees. 1t is said that
these nuts, which are carefully sealed in
with wax or a stiff, waterproof stopper,
lmpart new or closer grain and color
ing to the tree
The southern Indians of Mexico have
for centuries been in the habit of secur-
ing curious effects in coloring on fine
woods by inserting in the above manner
nuts of other trees into the roots of the
living tree. An enterprising planter in
Tabasco has been following out this In
dian idea with curious results. He men
toned this to other laciendados, and now
several of them are experimenting with
the coarser kinds of walnut trees with
encouraging results. = Pacific Fruit

Strange Cargo from the Amazon.

One of the strangest cargoes a vessel
could possibly have was unloaded at the
London docks toward the close of
March. 1t consisted of several sacks
filled with dried flies. consigned to a
large firm of grain merchants.
These flies, originating in Brazil. have
been purchased for use in the manufac-
ture of food for chickens, cage birds and
the like They We're caught on the river
Amazon by Brazilians, who travel up
the river in fiat bottomed boats and who
are provided with gauze nets, with which
they capture these insects in millions,
as flies hover in dense clouds over many
of the swampy reaches of the Amazon.
The flies thus caught are killed, dried
in the sun, and then placed in sacks
Upon arrival in London they are mixed
with millet and other grain and are sold
as chicken food, etc. Some time ago the
Brazil liam government, fearing that the
fish in the Amazon river would be
starved. forbade the expectation of flies;
hence the price of this strange commodi-
ty, which used to be Cd. per pound, has
now risen to Is Sd. per pound, and often
little more.-Scientific American.

Among this class the symptoms of
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is burden.
All these symptoms point to de-
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Miss Abby T. Barrows, jacksonville,
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham -

Lydia E. Pinkhanl's Vegetable Compound
and Blood Purifier have done for me. Before
I took them l was very nervous had dull
headaches, pains in back, and periods were

they did me no good

strong. I can do most any kind of work
without complaint, and my periods are all
right.
II am in better health than / ever was,
and know it is all due to your remedies. [

who suffer-"
It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink
ham holds out helping hand and ex-
tends cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is daughter-in-law of
Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five
years has been advising sick women
free of charge. Her long record of
success in treating woman's ills makes
her letters of advice of untold value to
every ailing working girl. Address,

AGAIN HANGING DOWN HER BACK.
Golden and Other Colored Hair to Be
Worn That Wav.

Three summers ago at Newport many
Of the young women when walking, driv-
ing, playing golf or tennis wore their
hair in two braids down the back
This fad was the subject of much dis
cussion among the other women, says
New Idea, but it was finally decided
that it was a good idea and extremely
beneficial to the hair and that there was
no reason why a young girl in her teens
or early twenties should not wear her
hair in braid if she wanted
At Palm Beach, Fla, this fad was
revived last winter and many of the
women were seen gong about in the
morning with their hair in braids. This
summer it seems that it will be even
more popular.
The braids are usually tied with bright
colored ribbon to match the color of the
gown; the hair is worn over a pompa-
dour in front and tied at the top with
bow of ribbon, so that this girlish way
of doing the hair can be made very be-
coming.
