Faucies In China.

Much of the handsome china used
nowadays is marked with the mono
gram or crest of the owner. 1t is a
distinctive mark that differentiates the
china from all the other ware, and the
lettering is an ornament in itself. 1t
is usually the more simple china that
is ornamented in this way, and an at
tempt is made always to put the letter
ing upon the side or wing of a plate,
as the professional will say, to pre-
vent wear. Old-time china was fire.
uuently marked in the center of the
plate and the marking was worn away
by the knife and fork. In some in
stances entire sets of china for differ
ent courses are marked, and always
each piece of a dish-the cover, the
dish itself, and, if soup tureen, the
piece upon which it rests. The let
tiers for the marking are always the
initials Of the mistress of the house
and are put on in script in preference
to the black letters. The lettering Is
usually in gold, but occasionally one
letter will be put in color and the
others in gold. The gold may be fiat
or raised, and upon this will depend
largely the cost of the lettering.-Chi-
cago Journal.

Odd Breach Of Promise Case.

One Of the most remarkable breach
Of promise cases hat have eve been
brought before the courts is about to
be tried in Athens. Plaintiff, a young
woman from the village Of Marco
poulo, some 35 miles from Athens,
bases her claims upon an ancient GUS
tom Of the village, which, it is held,
will influence the jury in her favor.
The custom, which has the force of
law in the village, is as follows: On
certain fete days the villagers as
semble on the green, when dancing is
INDUCED in. Any girl wishing to
marry drops her handkerchief, and the
swain who picks it up is bound to
marry her. In the case in question
the young man, who picked up the
handkerchief by accident, had never
seen the girl before. When acclaimed
by the assembled villagers as the pros
pective husband of the girl. he &C.
INJURED, hence the action at law. The
young girl is decidedly good looking,
and his lack of taste in not taking
her for a bride is much commented on
in the village.

could select, and having been put on
his guard, might find q way to defeat
the watchfulness OF the officers Of the
Republic.
Salvarez, however, found that he
could not obey the commands of the
President without betraying to the en-
emies Of the Republic the fact that
their plot wal discovered.
In the first place, there was only
one gun al Bolivar, and it was nearly
worthless. Cannon had to be dragged
there from the castle. The infantry
would have to be withdrawn, surely
by the 18th, to march to Bolivar, for 1t
was at Bolivar, no doubt, that the first
act Of aggression was to take place.
So the General abandoned all
thoughts of secrecy, placed a garrison
Of thirty men in charge of the castle,
fondly kissed his wife and Jacinta
goodbye, and marched away to Boil
var. with his band playing merrily, his
hundred and sixty odd men marching
proudly, and his artillery, consisting
Of two guns numbering along in the
rear.
Reaching Bolivar, he SO placed his
guns as to command the river, and
calmly awaited the 18th and the Agos-
tura.
The 18th came, but no steamer came
in sight, General Salvarez smiled calm
ly to himself at this ve%rif1cation Of
his hopes. The gunboats had captured
the Agostura. The soldiers played
games and got drunk, for surely no
enemy was nea
The 10Th was a day of Impotence,
for, although it was plain that Agos-
tura need not be expected at Bolivar
and Salvarez was in a hurry to get
back to his plantation, it was not be-
coming in a general of the Republic
md a friend Of the President to put
his private affairs ahead of the safety
Of the Republic, so he remained at his
post.
On the Goth the steamer Ell Callao,
from New York, arrived at her dock,
and among her passengers were two
young Americans, named Arthur Med
worth and Jack Tempest.
Medworth was a tall, handsome
young fellow, about twenty-five
years of age; and Tempest was taller
still, and of a gigantic breadth of
shoulder, his development showing
great muscular strength.
These young men at once inquired
for General Salvarez, and, having
found him, placed in his hand two very
satisfactory letters of introduction
from the Venezuelan consul at New
York.
When General Salvarez had read the
letters of introduction and greeted the
young men warmly, he took them to
his headquarters.

they were comfortably seated, please

turning Smoke Into Light.

A Belgian engineer named Tobi-
ansky Of Aitorff is said to have just
discovered a means for turning smoke
into light. His apparatus collects the
smoke, no matter from what fire,
forces it into a filtered receiver, where
1t is saturated with "hydro-carbure'
and turned into a brilliant light. BY
means of this invention, which the
Belgian papers are all busy discussing

food accurately.


The people have allowed the slow
murder Of infants and adults by tricky
makers of food. drink and drugs to go
on about long enough. Duty to oneself,
family and nation demands that every
man and woman join in an organized
movement to clear our people from
this blight. You may not be able to go
personally to Washington to impress
your Congressman, but you can, in a
most effective way tell him by letter
how you desire him to represent you.
Remember the Congressman Is in
Congress to represent the people from
his district and If a goodly number of
citizens express their views to him, he
secures a very sure guide to duty. Re-
member also that the safety Of the
people is assured by insisting that the
will of the people be carried out. and
not the Vaccinations Of the few for
selfish interests.
This pure food legislation is a pure
movement of the people for public pro-
lection. 1t will be opposed only by
those who fatten their pockets by de.
ceiving and injuring the people. There,
fore. if your Representative in Con-
gress evades his patriotic duty hold
him to strict accountability, and if
necessary demand equitable and hon
est service. This is a very different
condition than when a faction demands
class legislation Of the Congressman.

of the country demanded legislation to

SeleCtlOn OF IOOQ.
Many pure food bills have been in.
PRODUCED and some passed by State leg
i%slatures; many have been offered to
Congress, but all thus far seem objec-
tionable.
1t has seemed. difficult for politicians
to formulate a satisfactory bill that
would protect the common people and
yet avoid harm to honest makers and
prevent endless trouble to retailers.
No govt commission or officer has the
right to fix food Standards" to define
what the people shall and shall not eat,
for what agrees with one may not
agree with another, and such act would
deprive the common citizen of his
personal liberty. The Postum Cereal
Co., Ltd, perhaps the largest makers
of prepared foods In the world, have
naturally a close knowledge of the
needs Of the people and the details of
the business Of the purveyors (the re-
tail grocer, and, guided by this expert.
ence have prepared a bill for submits
sion to Congress which is intended to
accomplish the desired ends, and mas
much as a citizen of the U. S. has a
right to food protection even when he
enters another State, it is deemed
proper that the govt take control of
this matter and provide a national
law to govern all the states. A copy
of the bill is herewith reproduced.
Sec. 1 governs the maker whether
the food is put up in small packages
sealed. or in barrels, boxes or other
wise.
Sec. 2 governs the retailer who may
open a barrel and sell the food in
small quantities. When he puts the
goods into a paper bag he must also
inclose a printed copy of the statement
of the maker which was affixed to the
original pkg, and inasmuch as the
retailer cannot undertake to guarantee
h statement of ingredients he must
publish the statement of the makers
and add his own name and address as
a guarantee Of his selling the food as it
Is represented to him, which relieves
the retailer of responsibility of the
truth OF the statement nj throws 1t
upon the maker, where it properly be-
longs.
The remaining sections explain them
selves.
The Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, for ex-
ample, have from the beginning of it's
existence printed on the outside of each
and every pkg. of Postum and Grape
Nuts food a truthful and exact state
ment Of what the contents were made
of in order that the consumer might
know precisely what he or she was
eating. A person desiring to buy, for
instance, strictly pure fruit jelly and
willing to pay the price has a right to
expect not only an equivalent for the
cost, but a further right to a certainty
as to what he eats. Or he may be will
ing to buy at less cost a jelly made
part of fruit juices, sugar and a por-
ton of glucose. But he must be sup
piled with truthful information of the
ingredients and be permitted to use
his personal liberty to select his own
food accurately.
