TWO WAYS OF LOOKING ATT.
Wife's Sneering Comment Met with
 Sharp Answer.

Gelett Burgess at the recent dinner of the American Booksellers associa- tion of New York said: T once knew San Franciscan who married a girl for her money. She was not a pretty girl, and as time passed and love cooled, she developed a rather tart tongue.
 "One day her husband bought with his quarters allowance 20-horse- power automobile. He took the car home gayly and brought his wife out to the front door to look at it. She gave one sneering glance. and then said:
 It's very fine, but if it hadn't been for my money, it wouldn't be here
 "'Well, Mamie,' said the husband, quickly, If 1t hadn't been for your money you wouldn't be here your. self"

Inventor of the Roomerano.

The boomerang is rather puzzle One might think that the highest laws of mathematics had been laid under contribution in the perfecting of it The convexity on one side, the fiat ness on the other, and the sharp, knife like edge on the inside of the con vexity have the air of having been carefully thought out.
 Yet the people who invented this singular weapon cannot count higher than five and are destitute of all the arts and amenities of life. Theirs is perhaps the lowest plane of human life
 Some people have assumed that the boomerang was the creation of an old CT and higher civilization, but for this there is no evidence. It must be the product of one age long empirical usS of throwing weapons,

SETTING THE BRIDE AT EASE.
"Widder's" Sympathy Went Out to
 Fellow Passenger.

A couple recently married had just entered the train that was to bear them to the mountains on their honey moon, when they became aware of the close scrutiny of them by female pas senger, who had evidently spotted" a bride and groom. The young wife, on opening her handbag, let fall some rice on the floor, and the woman smiled. The other passengers regard ed the couple with interest. Seeing that the bride was every moment be- coming more flushed and uncomfort- able by reason of their scrutiny, the woman in the goodness of her heart, leaned across the carriage.
 Never mind, my dear!" she said. 'Im a widder now, but by this time next week I'll be in the same fix mys self"

USED BY THE DOCTORS.
Ninety Per Cent of the Drugs Pre- scribed Are Patent Medicines.

Despite the opposition of physicians, especially of those whose experience has been neither far reaching nor profitable, to patent" medicines, nine ty per cent of all drugs that physi- clans use are put up and compounded by manufacturing concerns,-are, ln fact, patent" medicines just as truly as if they were advertised in the newspapers.
 The average doctor knows little or nothing of pharmacy and is, there fore, glad to depend on the very medi- cines, which in public he condemns. just as he is obliged in many cases to depend on the diagnosis of the >pa- tient himself, even while publicly de- crying what he calls "self-diagnosis." !" How rapid has been the growth of the professional use of patent" or pro prietary" medicines is shown in an article written for the Journal of the American Medical Association for September 29, 1906, by A. Jacobi, M. D., IL. D. He relates that 50,000 pre- scriptions, compounded in several drug stores were carefully examined. From 1850 to 1870 no prescription was found for patent" or "proprietary" medicines. In 1874 but one prescrip- tion in 1,500 called for ready-to-use remedies. Between 1875 and 1880 the number calling for patent" or pro prietary" medicines equalled two per cent of the total. This increased to per cent in the period between 1880 and 1890. In 1895 it was 12 per cent, in 1898 it was 15 per cent, and in 1902 1903 was from 20 to 25 per cent.
 Dr. Jacobi says that in a large store he was assured that 70 per cent of the prescriptions were for patent or proprietary" medicines, and this probably is approximately the correct proportion at the present time. From this it would seem that if the patent and proprietary" medicines are good enough for physicians to prescribe in seven cases out of ten they are good enough for family use in cases of necessity and where the symptoms are well known and as easily under stood by the people as by the doc | tors

BLOW FOR THE INSPECTOR.
Chinaman Was Different from Any He
 Had Had Dealings With.

When former Minister Wu Ting Fang left this country he was accom- panied by an extensive retinue and at- tended to the steamer by delegation Of local Chinese merchants.
 The customs officials, who then were also immigration inspectors, carefully took the names and count of the local Chinese as they went on board. This precaution was to prevent some de- ported or otherwise not welcome celes- tial from effecting landing by joining the merchants as they came ashore after taking a ceremonious farewell of their distinguished countryman. Half an hour or so after Wu and his friends had gone on board one of Wu's secretaries arrived on the dock and was hurrying up the gangplank when customs inspector seized him by the arm and pulled him back on the wharf.
 "Washamalla you, John, no takee name, you no can come back. Who you belong?" said the inspector, smil- ing at some girls with whom he had been talking.
 The Chinese shook loose the inspec- tors hold on the loose sleeve of his silk robe and with quiet dignity remarked:
 This violence is unnecessary, sir, and my name is matter of no inter est to you I am a member of his ex- cellency's suite. I go on board this steamer to leave this country, never again, I hope, to return"
 That customs inspector is still on the force, but never since has he tried to be funny with a Chinese gentleman San Francisco Call.

The response was immediate, though a slight departure from the original, for in voice that was distinctly heard in all parts of the room there came the following modification:

Little Rock.-About 50 ex-Confed-
 crate veterans and sons and grandsons of eX-Confederate veterans enjoyed the
 watermelon feast provided by Com
 missioner Guy B. Tucker Saturday af-
 ternoon in commemoration of the bat tie of Oak Hills. A number of large
 sized watermelons were carved and
 served to the party at o'clock. The
 fruit was red and ripe, and was much
 enjoyed by all of MT. Fuckers guests.
 who rendered him a vote of thanks at
 the conclusion of the feast. The GUS
 tom of eating watermelon on the Oak
 Hills battle anniversary at the state
 house originated in 1886. A few
 days before the anniversary that year it was suggested that banquet be given in honor of the event. This was found to be impracticable, and it was finally decided to have a watermelon feast. which has been given every year since on August 10. The first was given while Elias B. Moore was secre- tary of state. Among those who par took of the juicy melon on that occa- sion were Gen. T. J. Churchill, Maj. w. E. Woodruff, Maj. w. P. Campbell,
 Col Feb Ward, Capt. James R. Miller,
 Grandson D. Royston, Prof. James Mitchell Maj. John D. Adams, Charles
 E. Penzel and many others. The GUS tom was kept up by every succeeding secretary of state, B. B. Chism, Ii. b. Armistead, Alex Hull, J. w. Crockett
 and o. c. Ludwig. On account of the absence from the city of MT. Ludwlg' Commissioner Guy B. Tucker gave the feast Saturday and entertained the veterans in the corridor of the state house adjoining the agricultural de- partment.

I tried all the physicians in the town and some in the surround ing towns, and I also tried all the pat ent remedies that I heard of, besides all the cures advised by old women and quacks, and found no relief what ever until I commenced using the Gu ticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, e2a Cuticura Resolvent.
