The scientists make out a good case
against the house cat, who, with all her
charming and lovable qualities, is
shown to be an agent of disease, and
wholesale destroyer OF bird life. DR..
Caroline A. Osborne, who has been con-
Quoting experiments at Clark Univer-
sity, has found that cats have diph-
liberia, whooping cough, tuberculosis,
eczema and ring-worm. Even when
cats do not actually contract these
maladies they may carry the contagion
about with them. As nimrods they
are responsible for the death of about
fifty birds year, according to e. H.
Forbush, State Ornithologist for Mas
sachusetts, not including the suffering
they inflict by their mangling of birds,
squirrels and rabbits.-Philadelph

The use of Latin by physicians In
prescription writing Is commonly re.
garded as a harmless survival of me-
dievalism, says the Literary Digest
Occasionally lay writer suggests its
abandonment. In commenting on a re-

per, which advocates the compulsory
use Of English in prescriptions, the
Druggists Circular and Chemical Ga.

defense of the time-honored practice
Says this paper:
Suppose the sapient writer quoted
whose uttel ances may sound all right
to those who know no more of his sub
ject that he does, should fall sick and
his physician should decide that the
one thing needful to save his life was
geranium robertianium. If there were
a law preventing the doctor from pre-
scribing In Latin he would have to
choose one of the upward of a dozen
English names for this drug. Suppose
he chose 'redshanks and so wrote the
word in his prescription. When the
druggist went to prepare the medicine
he would find that 'redshanks' was the
English name of at least four entirely
different plants, namely, the one al.
ready mentioned, polygonium amphib-
ium, polygonium persicaria and rumex
acetosa.

the interested housekeeper stepped in

"Fifteena centa a doz," replied the

The readers Of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all Its
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known to the
m edical fraternity. Catarrh being q constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Hall Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving the pa
tent strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in its curative
powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list

A Late Edition.

Julius Kahn, representative from San
Francisco, was in Washington when the
earthquake came and was nearly fran
tic, because his wife and children, in
Guiding baby few days old, were d.
rectly in the path of the fire.
Kahn spent two days trying to tele-
graph and then took train and went
out, and finding his family safe, stayed
q week or SO in the ruined city.
On his return he found letter from
a constituent, written eight days after
the shock, which began:

surprised to learn from me that we
have had a terrible earthquake out

the GOODNESS, the courage and the dar-

into action. He made the attack in

an advantage over his rival.
His undaunted spirit, which had
enabled him to endure two years. i'm
prisonment in Spain in the previous
war, now bore him forward. In spite
of the apparently overwhelming OBJ
stacles that confronted him, he over
came the enemy, and by his action so
inspired his own men and even the men
in the other ships that he deservedly
won his reward of the praise of the
Congress of his country.

AMHERST SWIMMING RULE,
undergraduates Now Required to
| BecOme Adenfa In Tho S.o-4

Undergraduates Now Required tn
Become Adopts i'm the Sport.
The decree that has gone out from
Amherst College. now that the institu-
ton has a large and complete swim
ming equipment that all students of
that Institution must not only battle but
learn to swim, is arousing much inter-
est In the press, says the Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle.
Heretofore, swimming has not been
dlgnifed as an accomplishment to be
require Of college undergraduates. 1t
has either been ignored altogether, or,
If encouraged, left optional with the
students whether they should acquire
1t or not.
But Amherst has Initiated forward
movement in the matter and her exper-
iment will be watched with some curl
osity. 1t Is, at least, a pretty good ad-
verdsement for the college, and will no
doubt popularize the Institution in the
estimation of many-young men for In
this day Of athletics swimming should
be In favor with all who love manly
exercise or sport.
Strange as 1t may seem, 1t Is said
that a large percentage of college
youths have not acquired the art of
swimming. A sturdy, healthy boy
should take to the water with the
eagerness of young duck. In the old
days Of deep-creek or swimming hole
Indulgence there was much danger at
tending ones experiments In the water
but despite that the boys generally took
the risk and learned to swim. The
modern institutional swimming tanks Ia
much safer, and there Is no excuse for
natural youth, having access to these
or any other safe bathing places, re-
maining Incapable of taking care of
himself in the water. OF course there
are danger for even swimmers; but
the boy or girl, man or woman, who can
swim, on the whole, is better assured OF
escape in water accident than one
who can't
Moreover, there Is a lot of pleasure
and fun In swimming when the practice
Is judiciously INDUCED. So every en-
enlargement should be afforded to the
youth of our time to cultivate the art
OF swimming, even If 1t Is not made
compulsory in our schools, colleges and
universities.

Told by Their Buttons.

The minister's wife was busily en-
gagged one afternoon mending the fam
lily clothes when neighbor called for
a friendly chat. After few moments
of news and gossip the caller remarked,
as she began to inspect basket of
miscellaneous buttons:
"You seem to be unusually well sup
piled with buttons Of all kinds. Why,
there Is one like my husband had on his
last winters suit"
Indeed" said the minister's wife,
with a slight smile. "All these but

outlay for clothes exceeds even these
enormous figures. Miss Morosini does
not consider the sum at all large and
was surprised that the statement should
create any public interest, when a
newspaper writer interviewed her at
her fathers palatial home at Rlverdale
on the Hudson.
Many of the gowns in Miss MorosIni's
wardrobe cost from $4,000 to $1,000
each. Her lingerie alone costs $1,000
yearly.
