Nurses ana tne v.ergy.

A prominent London clergyman, in
referring to the fact that the tendency
to encourage the visitation by the cler-
gy of the sick in acute cases is less than
it was, remarked that this is probably
one of the results of the more careful
system of modern nursing, which lays
stress on the Importance of keeping the
sickroom quiet. The old idea was that
the friends of the sick person should
be allowed to crowd into the room.
Now the nurse shuts them out, with
good results in the main. The nurse
has. therefore, become an exceedingly
powerful force in regulating the ar
rangements of the modern household
when there is illness in the home, and
it often practically rests with her, more
than with the doctor, to determine
whether the patient shall be visited by
the parish priest"

Ocean Liner Delayed
5arnacles Impeded Her Progress
Across the Atlantic,

This was the excuse recently given by
the officers of big ocean liner which
reached her destination three days ovea-
duer The power was there, but her
progress WAS retarded by the barnaclee
which had gathered on the bottom ana
sides of this great vessel. :,
In re rerrjng to the matter our local
druggist, j. &. DodsOn remarked,
.'Phis instance has parallel case IN the
field of medicine. 1t is old-fashioned
God liver oil, which contains medicinal
properties capable of tsplendid work
as a Bodybuilding, strengthening
medicine, yet on account of the System
c'ogging greasy oil which 1t contains
its medicinal powers Ia impeded and It's
value lost.
Yet we know the power Is there, and
it has remained for two great French
chemists to fnd way to separate thet Q
medicinal, health producing elements
from the oil and give us Vinol. Vinol
actually contains all the medicinal cura-
tive and strength-creating properties OF
cod liver oil, but contains not drop OF
oil, to upset the stomach and retard its
work In other words, the barnacles
have been removed from this famous
meoicine by US.
We ask every rundown, nervous, de~
bilitated aged or weak person in Ameri-
cue. and every person suffering from
stubborn colds, hanging on, coughs,
bronchitis or incipient consumption I'd
Try Vinol on our guaraT tee to return
money if it fails" j. q. Dodson,
Druggist

QUEER MARRIAGE CUSTOM.
The Malay Bride Has to Have Her
Teeth Filed Away.

The Malay Bride Has to Have Her
Teeth Filed Away.
Some of the national marriage Gus
toms of other countries are distinctly
quaint and interesting and to us appear
curious enough. Our conventional white
satin and orange blossoms are certainly
traditional, but otherwise we indulge IN
no real madness apart from the throw
ing of rice and old shoes.
An instance of a curious marriage
custom is that Of lower Ceylon. where
a cocoanut, which is regarded as a sort
of oracle, is sacrificed to the deities and
devils as a solemn Offering.
In Japan the symbolic girdle, so much
more expressive than our simple wed.
ding ring. is the outward sign of mar
riage, while i'll Burma the piercing of
the ears is the prelude to matrimonial
considerations.
In Malay, however, the poor bride
experiences a bad quarter of an hour
before her marriage, inasmuch as she
has to have her teeth filed down almost
to the level of her gums, a process
piteously painful as well as disfguring
In spite of this pain, however,, she is
expected to participate in the wedding
dance and festivities generally-Lon.

Curious Chinese Playing Cards

A pack of Chinese playing cards is q
genuine curiosity. They are generally
printed in black ON thin cardboard, the
average width and breadth being about
that of the finger of human being In
some cases they are only half an inch
broad and about three and half inch
es in length. The length, no odds what
the size, is always at least six times
that of the width. Some of the packs
have queer representations Of our
kings" queens" and "knaves" stamp
ed upon them in black Others are dec
grated with the figures of animals,
birds and fishes. Those used by man
darins and high officials bear only fig
ures of NEUROLOGICAL creatures.

CONCEIT OF TIE SOMALl.
He Feels lie Is About the Most Per-

He Feels lie Is About the Most Per-
feet Man In the World.
Perhaps the most remarkable charac-
terIstic Of the natives of Somaiiland is
their unbounded, preposterous conce.t.
Englishmen who know their language
have been appalled, by it. When wa
tering his camel or his horse the Som2H
encourages the animal to drink by
chanting to it in monotone. 1t is at
such moments Of eXtempOrary etfusion
that the man shines in all his glory.
The subject matter may be the expert
ences of the days march, the virtues
Of the animal beside him, the charms
of his latest wife or his own prowess in
some bloOdiess tribal raid. Be- great
good fortune the following literal trans
lation Of one of these chants or songs
came into my possession, and 1 insert
1t without any comment:
'Will you see a man? Then behold
me! am a Somali, as perfect in size
and form as Adam WAS after God had
breathed into him his immortal soul.
Look how beautiful my curly hair is
and how majestic look when wrapped
from head to foot in my snow white
or jungle colored tobe, although there
be sometimes only one pie Ga small
piece OF money! tied To it. My house
is the desert, and l am born free
man, free as the windl l know nei-
ther king nor master. l am as Adam
Was-my own master and king. In the
jungle | tend my camels and sheep
My only labor is to watch them feed
In my kerrier my wife, my dear slave
does all the manual work, while tend
Ing my offspring, and woe to her if she
Iofgets to prepare my evening meal
Inc Jedal whip shall then have its
turn TO make her remember for next
day. In such state is any man hap
pier than I"-Golden Penny.

SlAMESE BELIEFS.
some Peculiar Notions of Il Very Su
perstitiOuS People.

some Peculiar Notions of a Very SUI
perstitiOus People.
The Siamese are a very supersti-
Ious people" says Ernest Young, au-
thor of the Kingdom of the Yellow
Rule" "They have many peculiar ex-
plantations of natural phenomena,
Thunder, for instance, Is the sky cry
ing They believe that in the realms
above is a horrible giant whose wife
has a violent and uncertain temper.
When they quarrel the echo of his
voice comes in long, rolling notes from
the clouds. If he is very angry he
throws his Ratchet at his unruly spouse,
and when this ponderous weapon
strikes the floor of heaven the thunder
bolt falls through and comes to earth.
Failing stars are accounted for by
the fact that the angels occasionally
indulge in torch throwing at one an
other. When these same beings all in
sist upon getting into the bath at once
the water splashes over the side ana
If rains. The winds that sigh in the
night are the voices of babies that have
lost their way in their travels to the
land beyond the grave.
"When Siamese dies he is not
buried, but his corpse, fully dressed
and then wrapped in a winding sheet,
is placed in a sitting posture in cop
per urn. A tube is placed in his mouth,
and through this a mixture of quick
silver and honey is poured into the
body. In this way it is kept for a
long time, often for years. Eventual
" it is burned, and the ashes are care
fully preserved. The souls of those
whose bones at least are not burned
are supposed to become slaves OF q
borrid taskmaster with head like a
dog. a human body and the temper OF
n fiend. He sits for all time with his
| feet in the fires of hell, and it is the
duty of his slaves to keep these fires
/, from growing too hot. To do this they
must carry water in open wicker bas
kets through all eternity"

LIST OF DEAD WILL
NOT Be SO LARGE.
But Destruction of Property
Heavy.
TWO COVERED THE FATALITIES
Further Details of the Cyclone at Al
bany-Two Negroes Killed Outright.
Queer Freaks of the Storm az it
Swept Over the City.

Americas received further details
yesterday OF the hurricane which swept
over portion of Albany the afternoon
before, killing and in!uring number
of people and demolishing buildings,
the property loss alone probably far
exceeding 100000.
Viewing the wreckage left by the
tornado, it seems q miracle that scores
were not killed outright, the tribute
claimed in the way of human lives be-
ing astonishingIy small.
The known dead are: Ben Jones, a
negro machinist in the employ of the
Virginia Carolina Chemical Company
Jake Jackson, a year-old negro boy.
Among those whose injuries will in

They Once Thought White Men to he
Submarine Monsters.
There is a passage in one of the an
cient Arab histories to the effect that
1.-THE white people come from the other
side of the sea-" This statement has
become so distorted among certain
tribes Of natives of the Sudan that
they believe that the white men come
from the bottom of the sea A willy
Arab leader in this district once in
formed his followers that they had
nothing to fear from the white men,
as they could not live aw.& from the
water. The fact that high official
took his bath daily was further con-
sidered cOnfirmatory evidence of the
submarine origin of the white man.

fiuence over the natives, spread broad
cast the report that the white men
were cannibals. The fact that they did
not eat black men was explained as
due to their devilish cunning They
wanted to make themselves strong in
the country before beginning their hor
rid practices, but as they could not al
together do without this kind of food
they brought human flesh with them i'll
cans. In west Africa a French eXpedi-
ton had the unfortunate experience of
finding a portion of human finger
cut off, no doubt, by some accident--in
can of meat. Here was fresh and
conclusive confirmation of the story
in which the people had almost ceased
to believe, and it was only after con-
was at length eradicated. = Chicago
