Directions To Prepare Simple Home
Mixture.
Tells You How To Overcome
Rheumatism With Simple
kecipe.

A we'll known authority on Rheu-
matism gives the readers of a large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simple and harmless
prescription, which any one can
easily prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon. one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparrila,
three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in bottle,
and take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients
can be obtained from any prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and,
being OF vegetable extraction, are
harmless to take.
This pleasant mixture, If taken
regularly for few days, is said TO
overcome almost any Case OF Rhe-
matism. The pain and swelling, if
any, diminishes with each dose, UNI
til permanent results are obtained,
and without iniuring the stomach.
While there are many so-called
Rheumatism remedies. patent
medicines ETC., some of which do
give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will. me-
doubt. be greatly appreciated by
many sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neig hborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and
can be bought separately. or the
druggists here will mix the prescrip-
ton for our readers if asked to.

A correspondent sends the following
anecdote, or, as he calls it, ease of
thought transference, which was told
him by an eminent engineer, whose
name we withhold: This well known
engineer had been to Bulawayo on the
occasion of the opening of the railway
to that place. A friend who accompa-
MED him on the occasion contracted
enteric fever and died on the home
ward voyage. Half an hour before he
died his hair turned perfectly white.
On arriving In England the engineer
went to break the news to the young
mans sister He found that not only
did the lady know of the death of her
brother, but she knew the time and
the circumstance of the hair turning
white. The engineer was requested to
break the news to the father and moth
er as gently as possible, but to say
nothing of the hair turning white Aft
er journey of 100 miles he found that
both father and mother, whom he saw
separately, not only knew of the death
of their son, but knew of his hair turn
ing white at the time of his death.
Each had had dream, a vivid dream,
at the moment of the death taking
place, and each had kept his and her
own counsel, and they had not spoken
to each other of the dream.-London

ana holes IN me grounu. Juere mus.
often have been a conflict between the !
immeasurably old. primitive habit Of |
roosting under the open sky and the |
modern innovation of taking shelter |
from the weather The sense of con |
finement must have been very irksome.
We may be sure that there was no sud !
den revolution in the mode of life The |
new habit was adopted very gradual
ly. Only in some very violent storm
would the first indwellers creep into a
hole for shelter. and they would soon
find their circumscribed quarters intol !
cradle and brave the elements as soon
as the weather began to moderate.
Perhaps the new instinct was first
implanted i'll the young by the parents
bestowing their tender offspring i'll
holes during their own absence or
when cold and rain became severe. 1t
is not easy to teach an old dog new
tricks, but young wild rabbit or
squirrel taken at a very early age
from the nest never acquires the I'M
tamable Witness that is so conspicu-
GUS a feature in the character of the
old. In any case the habit of taking
shelter in more or less closed spaces
was a habit of slow and gradual ac-
quirement. and we may be sure that 1t
was not acquired without many re-
lapse and many a backsliding. We can
almost hear the jeers and SCOTS of the
stout old Tory anthropoids at the eff
feminacy of their degenerate juniors,
who should seek shelter that their
forefathers would have scorned. The
habit has not yet been fully acquired
by all our race, for we see even at this
late day many persons of human status
to whom the shelter of roof is abhor-
rent and who prefer in the worst of
weather to lie out under a hedge side
rather than submit to the restraint of
roof and walls.
1t is to the imperfect acquisition of
this later instinct to seek shelter in
confined spaces, or, rather, it is to the
| reassertion over it of the more remote
and earlier instinct of craving for the
open sky and irksomeness of confine-
ment, that the malady of Catastrophe
| bia seems to me to be due In the sub
| ject of this malady is revived in its
| original strength that craving for open
sky and open air, for possibility of
movement in every direction, which
were ingrained in our ancestors by
their free arboreal lives and which
were overcome with such difficulty
when first they descended to inhabit
terra frma. Like the sufferer from
agoraphobia. he who suffers from
claustrophobia experiences the revival
of an ancestral instinct that has been
obsolete for untold generations, but
that has been lost more recently than
that revived in agoraphobia. Since it
existed down to a later date since it
has been more recently lost, 1t is more
easily revived, and this is the reason,
I think, that claustrophobia is so much
less rare than agoraphobia.
| Whatever their origin, the two mala-
dies are equally inveterate. They are
refractory to remedies. They are re-
calcitrant to treatment They endure
for years and often for lifetime

The Left Hand.

1t is strange that 50 strong a preju
dice against the left hand has lived and
increased for centuries when there is
no natural or physiological reason for
1t. Examination of the skeleton Of 8
person who was strong, healthy and
well formed in life shows that the
bones of the left hand and arm are Just
as large and capable as those of the
right. The study of physiology shows
too, that the muscles and ligaments
and carriages that fastened that per.
sons arms to his body and gave them
the power of motion were made to dc
their work just as well on one side OF
the body as on the other If the left
side was the weaker, it was because OF
the failure to exercise it as freely as
the other. Scrap Book

Lees Eavorite War Horse.

General Lees favorite war horse,
Traveller, was almost as we'll known
to the soldiers Of the Army of Northern
Virginia as the majestic form of the
great commander himself Captain
Robert E. Lee, Jr, youngest son of
the general, in his "Recollections and
Letters of General Robert E. Lee" has
much to say of Traveller. To an artist
who wanted to paint the horse General
Lee wrote:
IF were an artist like you would
draw a true picture of Traveller, repre-
senting his fine proportions, muscular
figure, deep chest and short back,
strong launches, fat legs, small head,
broad forehead, delicate ears, quick
eye, small feet and black name and
tail. Such picture would inspire a
poet, whose genius could then depict
his worth and describe his endurance
of toll, hunger, thirst, heat, cold and
the dangers and sufferings through
which he passed. He could dilate upon
his sagacity and affection and his in
variable response to every wish of his
rider. He might even imagine his
thoughts through the long night march
es and days of battle through which
he has passed. But I am no artist; 1
can only lay he is a Confederate gray"

SOME USES OF TEA.
Many Ways In Which the Leaves Are
Employed In China.

Many Ways In Which the Leaves Are
Employed In China.
In China tea leaves from the cup are
used in sweeping floors, as they are
sometimes used in the United States,
but this does not end their utilitarian
purposes. In regions where fuel Is
scarce the refuse leaves are pressed
into bricks, dried and used in the same
manner as blocks of peat This fuel
is particularly priced for pork curing,
and the tea cured or tea smoked meat
is to the Chinese what beechnut and
sugar cured bacon and ham are to the
American. The ashes from the fuel
are used as a fertilizer. But even be-
fore its use as fuel the refuse tea serves
orously stewed or allowed to steep in
cold water in order to recover the tan
mic acid which they contain, about IL
per cent.
This Is used in tanning leather and
in dyeing textiles. 1t gives fine, per-
manent nut brown color, requires no
mordant and is unaffected by sunlight,
bleaching or washing. Sometimes the
refuse tea leaves are used as fodder
for farm stock, at least providing bulk
If not much nutrition. Again, they
may be dried, mixed with the low
grade, factitiously scented teas of COM
merce and are then known as ''lie tea
The decoction resulting from such tea
cannot be far superior to one made
from hay.
Brick tea even serves as money. 1t
is still in circulation as medium of
exchange in the far inland Chinese
towns and central Asiatic marts and
bazaars. Between the Monaghan town
of Urgas and the Siberian town of
Kiakta e. there is usually as much as
100000 taels ($s5,0O0) of this money in
circulation. At the latter place it
ceases to be used as currency and en-
tiers into the regular brick tea trade of
Siberia and Russia. As brick tea it Is
largely used in the Russian army, by
survey engineers, tourists and hunters.

WASHINGTON Monuments Can.

The first practical use ever made of
aluminium was in fitting cap on the
peak of the Washington monument In
1884. Although aluminium was discov-
cred in 1927 by Professor Wohler of
Gottingen university, Germany, at that
time it was practically an unknown
metal, the cost and difficulty of it's pro-
duction having prevented its develop
ment until the general use of electric
ity made it easy and economical. The
cap on the top of the monument is a
square pyramid in shape, weighing 100
ounces, and Is SO inches In height and
SO inches in width at the base. Gen
eral George W. Davis was in immedi-
ate charge of the completion of the
monument under General Casey and
has the distinction of being the first
man to handle aluminium In prac-
teal way. Until that time it had been
used only for toys, for "freak" pur-
poses. and small samples had been
utilized in making models for the pat
ent office.--Boston Globe.

the day. But how rarely this is so. Most
people rise still unrefreshed, and dreading
