 The chicken hawk of the west is a savage and dangerous enemy, but once one of these air pirates got worsted. l was sitting in front of the doctors of fee when a hawk shot down with won derful rapidity of wing-so fast that It's shadow seemed hardly to reach the earth before its body. It bounced upon the doctors favorite kitten, which lay asleep on the grass. and made off with 1t. At an elevation of about fifty feet puss recovered from it's surprise and went to work for liberty. It's feline mind was exercised to astonishment and wrath. Twisting like a weasel. it's claws came uppermost, and to my straining gaze sight presented itself much like feather bed being ripped open in midair. The amazed hawk received new light on the subject of prey. let % and made off like a badly plucked goose but the cat came safely to earth-on it's feet.

Medicine In Ancient Egypt.

There is much evidence in inscrip- tions and manuscripts that the ancient Egyptians practiced medicine and sur gery extensively. Probably their prac- tice was based on little knowledge of anatomy. Each physician treated only one or two diseases. The sick were exposed in public places so that others who had suffered similarly might tell them of helpful remedies. Diseases of the eye were best understood and re- ceived both medical and surgical treat ment. The most important medical manuscript found in Egypt Is the Uapyrus Ebers, written 5000 B. c. and discovered in Memphis. Disease, ac- cording to the Egyptians, was due to the anger of some deity, the result of the triumph of evil in Its struggle with good an idea which is still very gen. eral throughout Africa and Asia and which at some time has been prevalent in modified forms in almost every race -"Records of the Past"

In a Fec.

Nothing has such a bewildering ef- feet as fog. Only animals which find their way by scent can get about in it with any certainty. Birds are entirely confused by it. Tame pigeons remain all day motionless and half asleep, hud- dled up. either in or just outside their pigeon houses. Chickens remain mo tionless for hours during heavy fogs. No bird sings or utters call, perhaps because it fears to betray it's where abouts to an unseen foe. During one very thick fog blind man was found wandering about a certain district of London. This man was in the habit of coming up every day from a suburb carrying notes and parcels, and had scarcely ever lost his way before. Ask
 ed why he had gone astray (for he was quite blind. and it was supposed that weather would have made no differ
 ence), he said that in fog the ground ''sounded quite differently. y.'-Chums.

Uls> oeieie ef . Great lnventiec,

On one of the daily trips of young Westinghouse from Schenectady to the foundry at Troy his train was held up by bad wreck. Two frcichs had come together in q hcad-on collision on a piece of straight track. The engi- peers had seen the danger plainly. but by the time the hand brakes were brought into play it was too late The young man allowed these facts to sink into his mind. Then he said to one of the train hands:
 If tie engineers had been able tu control their trains from the cabs. the wreck could have been prevented. couldn't it:~
 Control 'em Eow!''
 Brake them.'
 Yes. They had lots of time''
 That was enough. The air brake was conceived. Amid the piled up wreck age the thing that was to make the name of Westinghouse familiar to ev- cry schoolboy the world over was call ed into being. It did not come in it's perfected form, but the idea itself had germina ted.-Paul Latzke in Every. body's

A young man engaged board and lodging in a private family who were extremely devout. Before each meal . long grace was said. To their dis may and horror the new boarder sat bolt upright while the others at table reverently bowed their heads.

Ants the Ideal Communists.

It would perhaps be pushing meta phors to an unwarranted extreme to speak of dignity of labor" i'll connec. tion with the occupations of ants. But if by the phrase we mean that labor is the honora ble lot of all citizens. and that all labors of whatever sort are upon the same level of responsibility then we might venture to apply the saying even to the labors of an ant hill. For therein all are workers. from the newly fedged callow to the veteran of second summer.-Henry McCoo': in Harper's.

This, however, gives only superficial coloring. and when the edges wear off the light colored wood shows. The other method is tn wash three or four times any dense wood with boiling concoction of log wood. allowing it to dry between eacii application. Then wash with solu, ton of acetate of iron. which is made by dissolving iron filings in vinegar. This stain is very black and penetra tes into the wood so that ordinary wear and chipping will not show the original color.

A UNIQUE BARGAIN sale.
Two Firms In Lake City Combine Stocks
and Sell al Cost.

A unique sale has been inaug-
urated by Messrs ]. F. Ricken-
baker g. Go. and J. P. Mat
thews &5Co. of Lake City. They
have combined their stocks OF
merchandise and for the next
twel :e days offer any article in
either stock at cost prices. They
claim that theirs is not a sal
wage sale, but owing to prevail
ing conditions both stores are
over-stocked and to convert
their superauous goods into
cash they have determined to
give their patrons the benefit OF
their ordinary margin of profit.
There have been a number OF
such sales recently, but these
firms have made new departure
in cutting out the middle man
the so.called "Salvage compa-
ry''-and are making their
prices lower than they could have
afforded had they employed a
man to do their advertising and
"hot air stunts"
The stores. of Rickenbaker &
Co. and Matthews & Go are ad'
joining each other and during
this sale the two stocks will be
practically thrown into one and
any article in either store may
be had at astonishingly low
prices.
Both these young men are
we'll known in Lake City and
vicinity as conservative busi-
ness men and are able and will
ing t, back up any statement
that they may make in their ad'
vertisement. For twelve days
they are giving unparalleled
barS gains in the line of merchan-
disc they carry and those who
fail to visit their stores will miss
an opportunity. that will not
soon come again.

IMPORTANT TRADE
MARK DECISION,

LYNcHBURG, Va, February 4th,
1904 decision of Importance
to all manufacturers of trade mark
goods has been awarded by Judge
Pritchard in the United States Cir
cult Court of this district.
The question involved was wheth-
er the Allen Brothers Tobacco Co. i,
of Lynchburg, Va, has the legal
right to use on its "Traveler'' brand
of plug tobacco tag similar in size,
shape, color, and slant of lettering,
hut different as to wording, from
that used by the R. j. Reynolds
Tobacco Co., of Winston-Salem, N.
c. on its "Schnapps" Plug Tobac-
co. o..
In the argument, on motion of
the plaintiff, the R. j. Reynolds
Tobacco Co. that a restraining
order be issued forbidding the de-
fendant company from further I'M
itating its tag, many affidavits were
submitted tending to show that
owing to the similarity of the tags,
the "Traveler" tobacco, purchased
by dealers at a lower price, was
sold to uneducated chewers fol
"Schnapps."
In decree signed ~ Judge Pritch'
aid, the Allen Brothers Tobacco
Company is enjoined from manufac'
turing, putting up, advertising, sell
ing, or offering for sale plug tobac'
co bearing a tag identical with OF
like the said tag OF the complain
ant known as the "Schnapps' tag
According to thiS decision, nc
manufacturer can initiate even in
color, shape or style of lettering
the trade mark of another manufac
turer, even though the wording bt
entirely different.
