WALL PAPERS IN CHINA.
Chance for American Manufacturers
to Build Up Trade.

The use of colored papers for house
decoration, which was scarcely known
in China until quite recently, is now
becoming general
1t is believed that these papers
would find good opening in the coun-
try, because in certain towns, like
Shanhai, Hankow and Tientsin, they
would be used not only in the houses
built for Europeans but also in those
of the Chinese of the wealthy class
who follow European customs and
habits. The papers used in China are
varied in colors, qualities, patterns
and prices. 1t is therefore advisable
to send the greatest possible variety
of samples, and paper representing
landscapes, scenes and pictures of
Teniers, tapestry, ETC., would probably
sell best
The frieze, which is placed imme-
diately below the cornice, is generally
of greater depth than that common
in European countries and often meas
ures as much as Is or 16 inches. The
best papers represent in these friezes
landscapes, seascapes, borders of flow
ers, garlands, etc. The ceilings of
houses are also covered with paper
with simple pattern on light colored
ground.

sour little girl. one year and half

what the doctor said II was. We called
ia the family doctor and he gave some
tablets and said she would be all right
In few days. The eczema grew worse
and we called In doctor No. 2. He
said she was teething, as soon as the
teeth were through She would be all
right, But she still grew worse. Doc
tor No. 3 said II was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but yellow,
grecnish sore. Well. he said he could
help her. so we let him try Il about
a week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one Of her
eyes. OF course We phoned for doctor
No. 3. He came over and looked her
over and said that he could not do any,
thing more for her. that we had better
take her 10 some eye specialist, since il
was an ulcer. So we went TO Oswego
10 doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could help IL.
We thought we would try doctor No. 8.
Well, that proved the same, only he
charged $40 more than doctor No. 4.
We were nearly discouraged. / saw

the Cutieura Treatment, so | went and
purchased a set Of Cuticura Remedies,
which cost me 81, and in three days
our daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment. and in one week all sores had dis
appeared. OF course Il could not re-

/ other word set about the task which
she had assigned him.
Tearing club from the hands OF
one Of the assistants. he plunged into
the crowd like an avalanche lie
welded his weapon With ruthless
Indifference To the heads and shout
ders which came In his way, and IN
thirty seconds had won his way TO
the cage He was not a moment too
soon, Francesca was down and the
bear was tearing furiously al his
shoulder when he iinng himself be-
tween them.
And now commenced mighty
struggle over the body OF the uneon'
seions man. The bears fury was
doubled at finding himself confronted
by an opponent who. instead of dodg'
Ing and running away. stood up and
buifeted him with awful blows that
stunned and blinded him. The man
was Irresistible In the first encounter
and the bear reiterated sullenly, otto
grasped the insensihle man and
dragged him toward the door OF the
cage, but before he reached II the
grizzly attacked him with renewea
ferocity, Four times the angry beast
tore Francesca from his grasp and
four times the man beat him back
from his prey.
Al length when he had almost
~.
probable, the trainer recovered his
senses and dragged himself weakly to
his feet. He bestowed single glance
upon the struggling pair before him;
then he turned and slipping from the
cage slammed the door behind him.
The door was equipped with spring
lock and the man who had risked his
life 10 save him was prisoner with
the bear.
His club was broken OF short and
he was bleeding from dozen wounds.
but he still presented an undaunted
front TO his brute antagonist But the
limit OF his powers was finally reached
and he sank to the floor.
Sidonia's shrek rang above the
cries Of the people, and she was about
to close her eyes to the awful spec
tacle, when suddenly a long pole was
thrust between the bear and his vic
tim; then another and another, and
with gasp of relief she realized that
the long delayed help had arrived at
last.
When she had in a measure recov-
cred her composure she arose and
slowly made her way through the ex-
cited crowd. There was but one
thought in her mind and that was of
atonement. Then the face of Fran
cesco appeared in the crowd in front
of her; face that was bloody from
the rought handling of angry men.
But she gave no sign of recognition
Her dream was over and she could
never regard him with friendly eyes
again.
Then the face Of Otto appeared;
bloody also. but with wounds received
in another's defense. Their eyes met
and in hers was look that asked for
giyeness. His answering look told
her that it was granted.

The Pure Food Roll of Honor

Good Housekeeping, well
known househoN rational magazine
voluntarily made thorough examina-
ton and test of None-Such Mince
Meat, and placed it without reserva-
ton upon its roll Of honor.
In the March number Of Good
Housekeeping in the department OF
Pure Food Assurance, we find:
''None-Such Mince Meat, Merrill
Soule Co., Syracuse, semi-moist
condensed compound of beef, apples,
spices, sugar, raisins, currants, boiled
cider, and salt, without otter preserv-
atives or adulterants, no artificial
coloring, produced under conditions
as near to sanitary perfection as pos
sible.''
This guarantee, which could not be
bought at any price, ought to satisfy
the most particular house wife. The
sale of one million packages mouth
seems to prove the statement to be
true. Your grocer sells None-Such.
Try it, and satisfy yourself. You are

OFFICER WAITED TOO LONG
Judge Belden Holds That While Maaske
Was Properly Elected to Office
He Slept on His Rights and
Mandamus Is Refused

The opposition to the construction
Of the Dutch Gap in the town of
Bristol has won~the first round Of the
legal battle over the building of the
big ditch as late Thursday afternoon
Judge Belden filed his opinion with
the clerk of the Circuit Court in
which he declines to issue a writ of
mandamus to seat August Maaske as
member of the Town Board of
Bristol The Court in a we'll written
decision holds that Maaske is not en-
titled to a writ Of maudamus to force
Henry Adams, the town clerk, to
qualify him for the Office and that the
man julius Remus, who was elected
by the board, was properly elected and
may hold the office. Ia his decisions
the Court reviews the facts Of the
case at length and his decision IS
based largely on the testimony given
by Maaske himself at the trial of the
case. The Court holds that there is
no doubt but that Maaske was proper
ly elected to the Office and that he
was eligible to sit as side supervisor
Of the town Of Bristol.
Continuing he shows that Maaske
should have not been satisfied with
the opinion of the town clerk that ne
was not eligible to hold the Office and
should have prosecuted his fight at
once and not waited for several
months or until his right to qualify
for the office had expired. The judge
holds that Maaske did not seek the
remedy which ne had at hand as Il
would have been possible for him to
have gone before any Notary Public
in the county and subscribed to the
oath of Office, but Maaske took no
steps to get Office save to ask the town
clerk to qualify him and when the
clerk informed him that in his opinion
Maaske was not eligible to Office the
contending supervisor had accepted
this as law and had declared that he
did not want the Office if he was not
legally entitled to it. The Court made
no statement in regard to the actions
of the clerk IN making this statement
more than to say that the clerk had
no choice in the matter save to
qualify Maaske if he filed an oath
and that his opinion of the eligibility
Of the supervisor had nothing to do
with thescase.
1t is thought that the decision of
the Court will be the end of the fight
SO far as Maaske is concerned but it
is pretty certain that the fight Of
Maaskes will 9 be taken up by his
friends when the town meeting Is
held in the spring of 1908 and some
people declare that there will be re.
volution in the political affairs of the
town ofsBristol.
AS result of the decision Of the
Court the Town Board will remain I'M
favorable to the completion Of the
ditch. The next step ia the fight will
be the hearing Of the suit of George
A. Shields against the Town Board
to force the completion of the ditch
and this suit will probably be taken
up as soon as the jury calendar is
disposed of.

RIVER OF SALT WATER.
Flows Inland In a Greek Island and
Then Disappears.

Flows Inland In Greek Island and
Then Disappears.
One of the most curious phenomena
of geography is found on the southern
coast Of the island of Cephalonia, near
Greece 1t is a stream OF salt water
which for an unknown period has left
the almost tideless sea and flowed in
land with considerable volume.
The sea enters the land at four
points where the coast is practically on
a level with the salt water surface.
The four initial streams unite to form
the little river that flows inland in a
broken rocky channel until it finally
disappears in the limestone rock and
sinks into the earth.
This inland flow has continued al
most certainly for several centuries.
It is far too great for removal by evap-
Grafton, chemical combination or even
physical absorption by Iores or cav
ems in the rocks. What becomes of
the water that is constantly flowing
inland and disappears finally in the
assures that have opened in the lime
stone?
The question has been the subject of
much study, but no conclusive answer
has been given. It is probable that
there is an underground channel which
carries the water. back into the sea at
no great depth below the surface. The
constant influx of salt water at Cepha-
lonia is duplicated as far as is known
at no other point of the world.-New
