The First Gas Tubes,

William Murdock, a Scottish mining engineer employed in the Redruth mines. Cornwall, appears to have been the first to suggest that gas might be conveyed ill tubes and used instead of lamps and candles. He made very iI 2ious gas lantern for himself, with w...eh he used to light his way over the Cornish moors at night. This Ian tern consisted of bag filed with gas and fitted with tube, at the end of which the gas could be lighted. Carry ing the bag under his arm, Murdock used to light his way home at night On meeting any one it is said that he v;Du' give the bag squeeze and thu: send vut long tongue of flame. This led to his being looked upon as the demon of the Cornish moors.-Londor Telegraph.

British Army's First Trousers.

Perhaps the army revolution of deep est interest to the soldier himself was that effected in 1923, when for the first time he was put in trousers. The an nouncement from the horse guards took the following remarkable form: His majesty has been pleased to ap- prove of the discontinuance of breech- es, leggings and shoes as part of the clothing of the infantry soldiers and of blue gray cloth trousers and half boots being substituted" In order to inden,- nifty the clothing colonels' for any hardship which the new order might cause it was decided that these gentle men should no longer be called upon to provide the waistcoat of Tommy but that Tommy should himself supply 1t out of his shilling a day. To reas- sure him it was pointed out that he was in a position to do so with com
 fort, because he would no longer have to buy gaiters-London Chronicle.

A PecuIiarity of Criminals.

Policemen. ill spite of their trouble in solving what appear to be ls.-ra or less simple problems, are fond Of as serting that the ordinary criminal be- trays an amazing lack or originality In support of this they point out that when criminal is arrested after do- ing one stretch the second charge against him is generally for the same sort of crime. They explain this by saying that each failure or each loss shows the "crook" some point of which hc had been ignorant, and it is easy for him to convince himself that next time he will avoid that mistake and be successful. When he fails and is ar- rested the law shows him just where he bunsled and the gamblers love of taking 1ance urge him to try his luck at .e old game once more. Then there also always to be. considered the unconscious and gritty determi- nation to make a success of the thing anyhow.-New York Tribune.

GOD SAVE THE KING. J

London, June 2S.-The birthday of His Majesty, Edward VII, King of Great Britain and the British do minions beyond the sea, and emper- or of India, was officially celebrated throughout the empire today. On Laffan's plain, Aldershot, King Ed ward held d military review at which 25,000 troops were present. The occasion was honored by the presence of several princes and prin- cesses of the royal family and many distinguished foreign guests.
 King Edward was born November 3, 1S41, so that he will not enter upon his sixty-sixth year for several months. The official date for the celebration was changed, owing to the fact that the month of Novem Der offers bad time of the year for observing a public holiday.
 All over England today, and par ticularly in London, there are many manifestations of loyalty and the holiday spirit prevails to a greater extent than ever before. Edward enjoys an extraordinary popularity among his subjects, due largely, to his love of sport and his independent spirit. Even religious folks of the most pronounced opinions on racing admit that EEdward is the best ex- ecutive the nation could have, even were the succession of the throne decided by popular vote. It is not extravagent to say that millions of people in all parts of the world are today joining heartily in the prayer of the national anthem: "God save the King"

FLuE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE
 ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
Fue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
 Found in schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Hundreds of imitation brands are on sale that l00k like Schnapps: the outside of the imitation plugs of to. bacco is hue cured, but the inside is filled with cheap, 1imsy, heavily sweetened air cured tobacco; one chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger longer than two cheWs of such tobacco.
 Expert tests prove that this fIue cured tobacco, grown in the famous Piedmont region, requires and takes less sweetening than any other k.nd and has a wholesome, stimulating satisfying effect on chewers. If the kind of tobacco yoW are chewing don't satisfy, more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
 Schnapps is like the tobacco chew CTS formerly bought costing from 75c. to $I:oop per pound; Schnapps is sold at soc. per pound in SC, cuts, strictly To and l5 cent plugs.

There are three ways used by far mers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely, sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The old and cheap way is called air cured; the later discovery and improved way is called fue cured. In fue-curing the tobacco is taken from the field and suspended over intensely hot fues in houses especially built to re- tain the heat, and there kept in the proper temperature until this curing process developes in the tobacco the stimulating taste and fragrant aroma found in Schnapps tobacco, just as green coffee is made fragrant and stimulating by the roasting process. Only choice selections of this ripe, juicy fue cured leaf grown in the famous Piedmont country, where the best tobacco grows, are used in SchnapPs and other Reynolds brands of high grade, Aue cured tobaccos.
