Animals ms Jewel Models.

In London the fad for wearing repre-
sensations of animals for personal
adornment is cultivated by sufficient
number of women to make an impress
sion on the displays in shop windows
and showcases. Bracelets that clasp
with carved heads of sheep. oxen. goats,
dogs and even snakes are frequently
to be seen.
Bond street jeweler was recently
commissioned to make a necklace of
decidedly original design for a we'll
known society woman 1t is to be made
OF fine gold links from which depend
the heads of her fayorite pets carved
in gold. There are three dogs, two
cats, pony's and a parrots head
The clasp is copy of a pet lizard, ex-
ecuted in gold, with jeweled eyes.
Following the same freakish fashion
there are two London women who,
contrary to the tendency of their sex,
invariably wear small white mice fixed
on the lapels of their coats. These
mice. which are most lifelike, are made
of plaster and sharp hooks are attach
ed TO their feet to hold them in posi-
tion.-New York Times.

"Paris is the home Of the great book
that city to a German paper. 1T is
just sixty years since Count Libri, IL
brarian Of the National library, fed
to England taking with him books to
the value of 100000 francs belonging
to the library. He was sentenced in
contumaciam' to ten years imprison-
ment, but never served day and new
er returned a book. The directors had
to purchase them from people to whom
they had been sold, and paid large
prices for them. a similar theft has
recently been discovered in the library
of the Ecole des Beaux Arts. Here
also the thief remains unpublished be-
cause he died before his crime became
known. A good name covers much, and
the thief, who was NJ. Thomas, an Of
ficer of the Legion of Honor, architect
of the Grand Palais and recipient of
the Roman prize, was at liberty to
plumber the library at will. He was
an enthusiast ON the subject of old en-
cravings and photographic curiosities.
and could satisfy his desires in that
direction without molestation on the
part of custodians. His method was
to tear engravings from books or to
carry away the whole work. In this
manner he acquired books and pictures
to the value of about 100000 francs.
The Thomas thefts brought to light the
fact that no inventory had ever been
made of the Beaux Arts library, and
that instead of modern catalogue an
tique slips and memoranda furnished
all the information as to the valuable
collection

1t has been popular belief that iron
was little known to the ancients: but
Lepsius believes that the Egyptians
used it for hard instruments, and that
1t was prepared in smelling furnaces
1900 3. c.
An iron band was found in an inner
part of the Pyramid of Chepos. where
the ancient architect had placed it not
later than $500 B. c.
In the tombs of Thebes and Memphis
tools and other articles OF iron have
been found, some of which are among
the treasures of the New York Histori-
cal Society.
Iron was so valued that it was seized
as plumber by victorious soldiers. An
iron sickle was found beneath one Of
the sphinxes at Karnak, and iron was
used for the door frames of the temple
of Ptah A piece of pure iron was
found beneath the obelisk that now
stands in Central Park, New York,
when it was taken from its original po-
s!tion on the banks of the Nile.
The relics found show that the art
of tempering was known at an early
date. The Egyptians worked mines in
the desert region of the south between
the Nile and the Red Sea. and also
near Mount Sinai in Palestine. The
ruins of extensive iron works were
found in 1873 near the Wells of Moses.

The Peculiar Frigate Bird.

The frigate bird Is native of tropl-
ca; seas and rarely comes to land ex-
cept during the breeding season. 1t
has the habit, unusual among sea birds,
of Nesting in trees, large companies of
them building together in the tops Of
the tal'est mangroves Like the CIR
norant and the albatross, the frigate
bird lays but one egg. 1t lives by fish
ing and also by robbing other fishers of
what they have caught. In plumage the
frigate bird is brownish black. with me-
tallic green and purple reflections. The
dilatable throat sac in the male is of
bright scarlet, while the female, of
duller general hue, has white patch
OH the breast. 1t is beautiful sight to
watch one or more floating overhead
against the deep blue sky, the long
forked tail alternately onening and
shutting like pair of scissors and the
head. which is, of course, kept to wind
ward, inclined from side to side, while
the wings are to all appearance fixedly
extended. though the breeze may be
constantly varying in strength and d.

Circular Undcrpctticoat.

~O~~~-~-~~~~

A very serviceable under petticoat is
shown here and one that has also the
advantage of requiring little work in
the making 1t is cut in one piece. in
circular shape. with habit back-the
opening being at the left side in front.
This precludes any possibility of draw
ing apart in the back. 1t fits very
smoothly over the hips but flares st
the bottom, where it is finished with i
ruffie of narrow embroidery. For the
cold weather. these short petticoats are
usually made of flannel but the design
is equally we'll adapted for flannel or
muslin. When close-fitting gowas are
worn, it is absolutely necessary that
the underclothing should fit well, as
every wrinkle can be seen. and the ap-
pearance of many pretty gown has
been ruined by ill-ftting underwear.

STOMACH ON STRIKE
SUCCESSFUL TONIC TREATMENT
Fer INDIGESTION.
Or. Williams Pink Pills Cured This
Woman and Have Cured Many
Hundreds of Other Cases OF
Common Ailments

Common Ailments
Loss of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth, heavy dull headache
and a dull, sluggish feeling-these are
the symptoms of stomach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach is on strike;
that it is no longer furnishing to the
blood the full quota Of nourishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
suffers.
There are two methods of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach is
humored by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach is toned up to do
the work which nature intended of it.
A recent cure by the tonic treatment is
that of Mrs. Mary Stackpole, of 81
Liberty street, Lowell, Mass. She says:
Il suffered constantly for years from
stomach trouble aud terrible backaches
and was confined to my bed the greater
part of three years. l was under the
care of our family physician most of the
time, but did not seem to get better.
II was completely rundown and was
not able TO do my work about the house.
My blood was impure and my complex
ion pale. / suffered from flashes of
heat, followed suddenly by chills. l
had awful headaches, which lasted from
three to four days. could get but little
rest at night, as my sleep was broken
and fitful. As q result / lost several
pounds in weight and became very ner-
vous.
Il was in wretched condition when
/ heard about DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
/ started to take the pills at once and
began to gain in weight and health. /
was encouraged by this to keep on until
/ was cured. My friends and neighbors
often remark what a changed woman l
am and l owe it all to DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
These wonderful pills are useful in a
wide range of diseases such as anamia,
rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
headaches, and even locomotor ataxia
and partial paralysis.
The great value of DIR. Williams Pink
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health
and strength TO every portion of the
body The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened, every organ is
stimulated to do its work.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on receipt
of price, 80 cents per box, six boxes for
$3.50, by the DR.. Williams Medicine

parents twenty years ago. When the
news of Couture's fortune reached him
a month ago he refused to accept the
urgent invitation to go east and aid in
settling the estate He had become en-
amored OF the work insthe woods, but
finally finding that proof of his inheri-
lance was indisputable. consented to

If Lion Pulls and Horse Pulls.

If lion and strong horse were to
pull in opposite directions. the horse
would pull the lion backward with COM
parative ease. But if the lion were
hitched behind the horse and facing in
the same direction and were allowed to
exert his strength in backing he could
easily pull the horse down upon his
launches or drag him across the ring,
so much greater is his strength when ex-
in forward pulling.-Chambers' Jour-
