EARLY TOBACCO HISTORY.
Passage in an Ancient Book Describes
the Weed in Quaint
Fashion.

The antiquary took down a little
brown book dated 1873.
This little book" he said, describes
English life in Shakespeares youth. 1t
has a passage on tobacco that should
interest you. A pipe, in this passage,
is said to resemble in form ladle. 1t
does resemble ladle, doesn't it?"
The passage in the old book ran:
I'm these daies the taking in of the
smoke of the Indian herbe called To-
bacco by an instrument formed like a
little ladele, whereby it passeth from
the mouth into the he'd and stomach, is
gretlie taken vp and vsed in England
against Rewmes and some other dis
eases ingendered in the lunges and
other parts. and not without effect.
1.-THE herbe Tobacco is commonly Of
the height of a man. with CRETE long
leaves; the COLOUR of the fioure is car
nation. resembling that of the lennon
in form, the roote yellow with many
fillettes.
1.-The first taste of Tobacco smoke is
vile. but aromatick and swete enough
it becomes with usuage, so as to make
men it's slaves 1t is best taken with
wine or beere."

st. Louis, Sept. S.-Attorney Gen.
eral Hadley and his assistants, Mes
srs. Lake and Kennish, appeared be-
fore Special Commissioner Schofield
Friday in the Missouri maximum
freight rate case. The statement of
the Burlington showing the roads
earnings in 1904 and 1905, and the
estimated reduced earnings under
the new law was up for consideration.
AS Mr. Hadley desired to investigate
the Burlingtons books the hearing
was adjourned until September II in
Chicago, where the roads headquar'
tiers are located.
In April an understanding was
reached for the preparation of COM
parative statements by five OF the
eighteen roads operating in Missouri.
The Santa Fe declined to furnish a
report or to permit the attorney gen.
eral to investigate it's books. Mr..
Hadley announced that he will apply
to the special commissioner for au'
thority to demand the statement and
investigate the books.
The Wabash and the Missouri Paci-
fic and Iron Mountain systems hear
ings will be conducted in st. Louis.

Santa Fe hearings will be conducted

Three Great conversationalists.


The three greatest conversational
lists with whom it has been my good
fortune to come into touch were MAJ
zini, DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Bismark.
Of these, DR.. Holmes was the most
spirited in the bel esprit sense;
Bismarck the most imposing and at
the same time the most entertaining
in point Of wit, sarcasm, anecdote and
narrative of historical interest,
brought out with rushing vivacity and
with lightning-like illumination OF
conditions, facts and men.
In Mazzini words there breathed
such a warmth and depth of convic-
ton, such enthusiasm of faith in the
sacredness of the principles pro-
fessed and of the aims pursued by
him, that it was difficult to resist such
a power of fascination.-Carl Schurz'
In McClure's Magazine.

ture late in carving, love was IN
Winslow's mind an unwelcome guest;
an intruder whose visit was to be de-
ferred as long as possible. But there
were signs of it's coming; as Winslow
watched northumberland her ten
der thoughtfulness toward her mother
her regard for the welfare of all
He remembered the picture she made
when seated in the wood with the In
dams head on her lap. Bare-headed
her hood the wounded mans pillow,
the dying sun tipping her hair with
arrow-points of bronze, she had
seemed a wrath of daylight in the
gathering shades. This revelation of
the softer side of the girls nature,
of her ministrant care and dauntless-
ness in danger, touched him where
ballroom Establishments or mere
blithe maidenhood had failed.
She rode in advance, often turning
for word or smile. Often there
were scarlet berries at her throat, or
leaves twisted in hooking imitation
Winslow's pleasure in the sight
his growing joy in her company, was
dampened by self-reproach. Had all
his hopes, his ambition for career in
the land of promise, come to this
That he could find content and salts
flying happiness in the mere presence
of a woman?
At last they came in sight of the
Mississippi; dark, silent, the waters
rolled, a vast moat; beyond it, steep
and sheer, wall of rock. To the trav-
elers, ignorant of all that lay behind,
that rocky wall might have been the
fortress of the setting sun.
The spring was early, and ice drift
ed helplessly under its torn cerements
of snow They were not far from the
settlement of New Madrid, and it was
determined to follow the course of
the river until the town was reached.
Slowly northward, for the spring
rains had begun, and the fens and
marshes were Shiny underfoot and
foggy overhead.
The river, bearing its icy burden
away to the south, served them in
guidance grim, but true.
At last they reached the point di-
rectly opposite New Madrid. The
squat stone cabins of the settlement
were huddled together on the farther
bank like great cakes of ice thrown
from the river
The day was gloomy; the clustering
wind, hag-ridden, hurled snow and
rain in their faces with alternate spite.
This is not exactly welcome,
warm and heartfelt, is it," laughed

With wondering anxiety the woman
scanned each face, then timidly ap'
preached the gamester: William, mas
ter, speak to me-what is it,"
A groan was the only response; then
roughly Finer spoke: 1--WE played until
he lost everything he had-but you.
Then, well, then he staked-and lost
again"
The woman stood rigid. Over her
eyes horrid comprehension grew,
darkening them like film shutting out
the light.
Finch grasped her with half scowl
half leer on his cruel face. Zone mans
meat is another mans pizen, you
know, my girl
With shrek she turned from him
to sink at the feet of her master mot
me? You have not sold me?" and she
murmured broken words of anguish,
groveling on the floor, her head on his
knee.
1--WE are intruding, senor."
1t was the third player who spoke
tall, heavy-browed Spaniard, his
massive head covered with black curls
on which was carelessly tilted wide
brimmed hat. This he pulled lower,
as if to hide the womanish pity in his
eyes,
LET us CO." he said, this is not
the first time men have fought for a
woman" and he turned away.
Winslow was tempted to follow
both from personal unwillingness to
witness the narrowing scene, and
from innate respect for the Ganctity of
sorrow. But just then he met the
agonized gaze of the octoroon. All
a woman's soul flashed from the eyes
of this helpless chattel.
Rapidly his mind searched every
avenue of escape for her. There was
a wayne would try it.
will you tarry a moment?" and he
closed the door as he spoke, Il have a
suggestion to make.
There was compelling power in his
quiet words which made the crushed
man raise his head with sudden hun
cry hope in the bloodshot eyes. The
woman staggered to her feet. Capt.
Finch rewarded the speaker with a
glare of malignant questioning.

relief of the distress caused by the
recent earthquake that destroyed Val

"Cut out hot cream of tartar bis
cult" used to be common, everyday
remark among physicians when dis
cussing items of diet for their pa
tents. But alum baking powder bis
cults are never mentioned in this re-

of tartar that is Objectionable and in
furious, and yet there are some people
who to-day continue to use the old

wonder why they are always ailing.

thing for your wife. I've written the di-

try it faithfully for fortnight. Then,

Chewing
Of Food
the Cause Of
Dyspepsia

If your teeth are fit, chew, chew,
chew, until the food is liquid and
insists on being swallowed.
If teeth are faulty, soften Grape
Nuts with hot milk or cream, or
allow to stand a minute soaking in
cold cream.
There's a reason" as follows:
Grape-Nuts food is in the form
of hard and brittle granules,
intended to be ground up by the
teeth; that work not only preserves
the teeth but brings down the saliva
from the gums so necessary in the
primary work of digestion.

that when they eat Grape-Nuts they
seem able to digest not only that
food but other kinds which formerly
made trouble when eaten without
