chamois Skin Of Commerce.

Charles c. Druedling, OF Philadel.
phia, has written an article for the
American Journal Of Pharmacy on the
subject Of channels skins. What IL
known in the market as chamois skins,
he says, Is really an obtained sheep
or lamb skin lining. The supply OF
skins from the channels animal is very
limited-enough could not be obtained
in q year to supply the United States
for more than a single day. He made
special inquiry on a recent visit to
Switzerland about the annual crop OF
the channels skin and ascertained that
from 5000 to 5000 skins would be a
fair average yearly crop. This skin Is
heavier than the skin of the sheep or
lamb, also much coarser. Fol strength
and durability the chamois skin is pre-
ferable, but for ordinary use and ap-
the obtained sheep kin
lining would. in most instances, be
preferred.

He was awakened by a feeling OF

bound that he could make no sound.
As he became fully awake he realized
that something must be done or he
would choke. He grabbed frantically
for his throat and his hand slipped
over the scales of huge snake which
had coiled itself around his neck. He
srantically pulled the coils loose, the
reptile resisting him and biting him
in the cheek.
His two companions, awakened by
the noise, came to Feve's rescue. The
two pulled the snake away and threw
it to the floor, where 1t glided away

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whfrl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens OF thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases., quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds Of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-

The material to be used will be brick

Bank recently opened an institution
there. 1t has prospered, and there is
good reason to believe that. with an up

II will grow to even greater proportions.
This locality is a natural center for a
large volume Of the banking business of
the rural districts on that side of the
Capital. Farmers coming into the city
with produce pass through Anacostia
In large numbers often carrying con-
siderable sums back home with them be-
cause they have no bank accounts and
find IL inconvenient to deposit in the in
