From Czenstochowa. the Mecca of
Polish pilgrims, comes an amazing
story of condolences. A pilgrim went

that some thief had stolen his purse
while he was in church, and asked for
money. The priest replied that he
had nc money and that the best thing
for the pilgrim to do was to try to
find the thief II shall go into the
church and steal money from some

have nothing to go home with" He
went into the church and seeing a

pulled out his own stolen purse, with
the exact sum he had left in 1t. He
was so glad to find his money that he

Shift Of undersklrs Fashion.

Time was when gingham under.
skirts were not good form for street
wear. and the petticoats were service.
able but not at all pretty. This year
there are fine percales that wash and
look like new until they are worn out.
They are seen in small black and
white shepherd checks, stripes OF
white and some pretty color, and dash
ing broken plaids. In French ging.
ham are seen Scotch plaids, and it is
almost impossible to- tell these ging-
hams from silk. The petticoats are
easy to make and require but little
time. They are made with ruflle,
which reaches to the knee, while un-
der this ruflle, on the foundation of
the skirt, is little three or four inch

USED POISON OF RArrLesnAks
Preparation That Made War Arrows Of
Cherokee Indians Deadly.

An old Cherokee Indian recently
gave away the secret how the Indians
Of olden times used ia poison their ar.
row heads for war purposes or for
killing bears. according to the Denver
Field and Farm. They took a fresh
deer liver, fastened il TO Q long pole,
and then went to certain places where
they knew they would find rattln.
snakes in abundance. About midday
the rattlcrs are all out Of their deus
coiled up in the cooking sun The
bucks would poke the first rattler
they found with the liver on the Ions
pole. A rattler, unlike common snakes
always shows fight in preference to
escaping. The snake would thus re
pSatedly strike at the liver with it's
fangs until its poison was all used IN
whereupon II would quit striking and
try slowly 10 move en-. The bucks
would then hunt up another rattler
aud repeat the performance, kocplng
up the work until the liver was well
soaked with snake poison. Then the
pole was carried home and fastened
somewhere in an upward position until
the liver became as dry as bone.
The liver was then pounded to fine
powder and placed in buckskin bag,
to be used as needed for their arrows.
This powder would stick like glue to
any moistened surface and was death
to any creature which 1t entered on
arrows.

Best Effect.

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is a solid colored wall. IL fur.
nishes perfect background for all
kinds of pictures. it throws them out
in their correct proportions. and does
not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall is also much
better as d background for furniture.
and harmonizes much more artistical
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method of wall treatment. The
less breaking up of color on a wall
the more artistic ii is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall is an aIabastined
wall. There is as much difference be
tween tinted walls, as there il be-
tween shoddy and Atwood gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for a few
days, while the Atwood keeps its color
to the very last thread. so also in solid
colored walls. there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle. The ideal wall coating
never rubs off. never fakes nor chipsl

wall with your tinting material.
Be sure your man uses a tinting ma.
terial mixed with cold water. II he
comes to you and asks for warm wa
ter, you can make up your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall, and you
can be certain that you are going to
have a shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that 1t will hold
Its color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water. Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have a perma-

that will be a thing of beauty and a
