Herbert Spencer's Painted Carpet.
Herbert Spencer once had a carpet
which began to fade when 1t had only
been down few months. 1t consisted
or. rather. had consisted, of clusters OF
blue flowers on a drabbsh ground
Now, with the principal color gone, il
had become far too dull for the taste
of that lover of brightness, He there
fore conceived the unique idea of hav
ing each flower stamped over with RED
Ink For this purpose he invented q
small tin tray, which WAS made so that
1t stood quite fiat on the floor TO pre-
vent any possibility of the ink being
spilled or dropped about Bent in II
were little wells about as large round
and twice as thick as a halfpenny
These depressions were filled with the
LIQUID. The whom he was
always glad of an excuse to employ
because she was SO Woodworking and
so poor-was soon set to carry out his
plan. Down on her knees she had &c
go, and as she was decidedly stout II
was no light task. With cork cut the
exact size and dipped in ink she press
ed firmly down on each flower, thus
leaving ii as If covered with red cher.
ries No wonder it took her over q
week, working all day, for the carpet
WAS from twenty to thirty feet
long and proportionately wide.-Har

One of the vaRaries of Memory.

A child Of American parents was
born in Spain, and, although the Ian
guage of the family was English, sht
learned to speak Spanish fuently. She
then removed to America and went
into a boarding school where French
was the only language spoken. OF
course, hearing no Spanish, the chic
gradually seemed 10 forget II. Hell
knowledge of French was perfect, and
that she used as well as English.
When she became an elderly lady her
health failed her, and she sank into
a condition Of physical and mental
weakness After time her attendants
observed that she seemed not TO under
stand anything that WAS spoken in
English, but cOnversed in French with
ease. At last she lapsed into long
interval Of semiconsclousness, during
which she understood nothing. During
the last days of her life she suddenly
rallied and her command of Spanish
came back to her so that she talked
duently in it and thoroughly under
stood IT. AS a case of mental lapse
and popularity OF memory this is con
sidered quite worthy of note.

A Valuable Agent.

The glycerine employed In Dr. Pierce's
medicines greatly enhances the medi-
cinal properties which it extracts and
holds In solution much better than alco-
hol would. 1t also possesses medicinal
properties OF It's own, being valuable
demulcent, nutritive, antiseptic and anti
ferment 1t adds greatly to the efficacy
of the Black Cherry bark, Golden Seal
root. Stone root and Queens root, con-
tanned in Golden Medical Discovery" in
subduing chronic, or lingering coughs

for all of which these agents are recon-
mended by standard medical authorities
In all cases where there is wasting
away of flesh, loss of appetite. with
weak stomach, as in the early stages OF
consumption, there can be no doubt that
gycerine acts as valuable nutritive and
aids the Golden Seal root, Stone root,
Queens root and Black Cherrybark in
promoting digestion and building up the
flesh and strength, controlling the cough
and bringing about a healthy condition
of the whole system. OF course, II must
not be expected to work miracles. 1t Will

geal troubles, ard chronic sore throat

VIII Abolish All Passes,

There Is a well-defined rumor that
some member OF the state railroad
commission has advised railroad offic-
ials that the commission proposes to
absolutely prohibit free passes in this
state, except to railway employees,
covered by the exemption clause of the
law, is the report that comes from
Olympia, says a Seattle dispatch. 1t
is stated that at the present time
passes are honored in this state where
the trip originates outside the state
and the trip thus becomes an inter-
state one. Thus, 1t is claimed, passes
are issued good from Portland to Sc
attic and the pass is accepted AMI
honored for the ride in this state in
spite of the fact that the holder is not
railroad employe.
