MOTHER OF PEARL WORKERS
Crude Methods Used by People of Beth
lehem

The chief industry of Bethlehem in
Judea is that Of the mother of pearl
workers. The shells are brought from
the Red sea and in the hands of native
artisans are polished and carved. the
larger into elaborate designs: the smaller
are cut up for rosaries and crosses.
The work is all done by hand, and the
methods are amazingly primitive to 4
spectator from the home of steam and
electric power. But the results are ex-
traordinary.
The largest shell we saw was carved
IN scenes from the birth of Christ, the
Agony in the Garden and the Crucifix-
ion, and had the general effect of delicate
frostwork. Under the magnifying glass
every detail was seen to be perfect in
outline and in finish 1t was executed
to order for an American and was to
cost $160.
About $50 persons make a living by
this industry, which is 500 years old.
In the shops the workmen sit upon the
tioor, their benches in front of them
the air is full of whitish dust, and the
hight admitted by the single window and
the open door, SO dim that the exquisite
tracery of the wrought shells is a mys-
terry even before the visitor notes how
few, simple and crude are the instru-
ments mployed.-Lippincott's Magazine

A Trite Saving.

1t IS a trite saying that no man is
stronger than his stomach. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery strengthens
the stomach-puts it in shape to make
pure, rich blood-helps the liver and
kidneys to expel the poisons from the
ney troubles. II you take this natural
blood purifier and tonic, you will assist
your system in manufacturing each daY
pint of rich, red blood, that is invigo-
rating to the brain and nerves. The
weak, nervous, run down, debilitated
condition which so many people suffer
from, is usually the effect of poisons in
the blood; it is often indicated by pimples
or boils appearing on the skin, the face
becomes thin and the feelings "blue"
DR.. Pierce's "Discovery" cures all blood
humors as we'll as being tonic that
makes one vigorous, strong and forceful.
1t is the only medicine put up for sale
through druggists for like purposes that
contains neither alcohol nor harmful

every ingredient of which has the profess
sional endorsement of the leading medical
writer's OF this country: Some of these
endorsements are published in a little

ton of the blade to strengthen the latter.
The corrugated portion of the blade IS
made of vertical angular ribs, the con-
struction being such that the sides of
each rib incline upwardly to form an
edge, the latter extending from the shank
to the lower edge of the blade Each rib
terminates in q point. The blade is
made from a fiat sheet of steel, the ribs
or corrugations being formed by press
ing them up in the well-known manner.
The points are made by either indenting
one end Of the sheet of steel before it is
pressed III such shape as to produce the
points, or by leaving the plate straight
and cutting or grinding the end of the
blade at an angle. This permits the
points to be easily and quickly ground
to sharp cutting edges.

Pearls Cost More Now.

1t was two years ago that a generous
husband after successful transaction in
business gave his wife pearl necklace.
He paid the Fifth avenue dealer $4,000.

transaction which had yielded him g
profit, the thought of a larger one ell

The remarkable wave Of temperance

" to the great change in public taste.

crease in the national drink bill" said
ohm T. Rae, secretary of the National
Temperance league, SIS the striking con-
demnation Of the use of alcohol by some
of the most influential medical authori-
ties.
Another important factor in the de-
creased consumption of wines and spirits
Is the fashion set by the large number
OF American visitors, who show a re-
markable preference for iced temperance
drinks.
The total abstinence Of the majority
OF the labor leaders is also beginning to
tell on the laboring classes and members
OF trade unions, many OF whom are now
beginning to realize that teetotalism is
an important stepping stone to their fu-

''There is no doubt" the manager of
one Of the largest firms of wine mer-
chants told an Express representative,
that the decrease in wine and spirit

NO REST NIGHT OR DAY.
With Irritating Skin Humor-Hair
Began to Fall Out-W Wonderful Re
suit from Cuticura Remedies.


About the latter part of July my
whole body began to itch. I did not
take much notice Of it at first, but it
began to get worse all the time, and
then | began to get uneasy and tried
all kinds of baths and other remedies
that were recommended for skin hu-
mors; but | became worse all the time
My hair began to fall out and my scalp
itched all the time. Especially at
night, just as soon as l would get in
bed and get warm, my whole body
would begin to itch, and my finger
nails would keep it irritated, and it
was not long before I could not rest
night or day. A friend asked me to
try the Cuticura Remedies, and I did,
and the first application helped me
wonderfully. For about four weeks l
would take a hot bath every night and
then apply the Cuticura Ointment to
my whole body; and kept getting bet
ter, and by the time 1 used four boxes
Of Cuticura l was entirely cured, and
my hair stopped falling out. D. E.
