ELEPHANT FERRY.

One of the strangest ferries in
the world is to be found in India. a
Hindoo CHANGED to save the life of
a prince, and as a reward received
one Of the largest elephants in the
royal stables. But this honor caused
the recipient much anxiety, as the
animals appetite was too great for
the owner to satisfy. The Hindoo's
house stood near a turn in the river,
where many people crossed, and as
the stream was at times a raging
food, boats and men were often car
ried out of their course. On one
occasion when the elephant was in
bathing in the river, it suddenly oc-
CURED to the owner TO use the ami
NAL as a ferryboat. A harness was
made for the elephant with a long
rope as trace, which was fastened
to heavy boat. The latter, with
loaded passengers, was successfully
towed over the river, and since that
time the animal has been a source
of profit to his owner.

JAPAN'S SEAWEED CROP.

One would hardly suppose that a
person could get rich gathering sea-
weed. On the face, such an indus
try would seem as proftless as the
extraction of gold from sea water.
Yet the income of Japan for sea-
weed each year amounts to $2,0OO,-
600.
Entire towns upon the coast of
Japan are devoted to this queer in
dustry. Recently the government
took up the cultivation of sea
grasses, offering prizes for the best
method of increasing the yield and
for producing iodine from sea
plants.
The coarser varieties Of sea grass
are stewed in soups; other kinds are
used in the manufacture Of glue,
plaster and starch.
Farmers living near the coast use
the coarse, ropy kelp for fertiliz-
ing their land, with good results.

Brain Leaks.

AgnOsticism makes nocOnverts

Love laughs at locksmiths, but
not at goldsmiths.
Money talks, and cashiers
checks produce a lot of it.
In the midst of prosperity we
are in need of real money.
Friendship bought with money
is never an available asset
Salvation is free, but it costs
something to maintain it.
Joining a church does not
make a man a Christian, but it
helps.
1t is rather rubbing it in to adj
wise man with cold feet" to
keep cool.
We lose a lot of valuable time
worrying about the things that
never happen.
After all, would life be worth
while if everything happened
just as we wanted it to:
1t is easy to believe after eat
ing a hearty meal that everybody
in the world is well fed and happy.
Kind words are easily coined,
and there is never any need of
issuing cashiers checks to take
their place.
The longer a man works at
Job the more he knows about it,
and the less he thinks he knows
about it.
People who give lot can at
tract public attention. Some
men have given their all without
ever being known to fame.

CANNON BALLS OF STONE.

On either side of the entrance to
the naval asylum on Gray's ferry
road, is an immense stone sphere,
measuring about 25 inches in diam
eter, There is.a legend that these
were used or intended for use in a
Turkish mortar, "the largest piece
of ordnance in the world.
These balls were given to the in
stitution soon after its founding by
Commodore J. D, Elliott, who OBJ
tanned them during a cruise on the
frigate Constitution in European
waters. An inscription on one of
the balls relates that they were OBJ
tanned on the Asiatic side of the
Dardanellcs, and it is within the
realms of possibility that the Turks
may have intended them to serve
as shot in a mortar. 1t is also
more than probable that with suffi-
ciont power to project them the
stones would have been badly shat
tered.
Commodore Elliott presented
them in 1898, and ever since then
they have ornamented the entrance

WORLDS TAllEST WOMAN.

A charming and kindly DISPOSE
ton is hidden beneath the somewhat
impassive demeanor of Marie Fass-
nauer, the worlds tallest giantess.
Marie has lately arrived in London.
and is now appearing at a variety
hall in the West End. Standing
eight feet high, she claims to be
the tallest woman in the world.
She has expressed a desire to de-
vote large portion of her salary to
charity, and, being passionately
fond Of children, she employs near
ly all her spare time in knitting
stockings, gloves and mittens for
the little boys and girls of her ma
tive village in Tyrol.
Hereditary tendencies perhaps
account to some extent for the alb
normal growth of this Tyrolese
giantess. Her grandfather was a
giant, although her brothers and
sisters, on the other hand, are all
of normal proportions. Curiously
enough, Marie ceased to grow when
she was Is years of age; she is now
p, and is extremely intelligent.
The appetite of Marie is quite as
remarkable as her size. Her first
English breakfast consisted of IA
boiled eggs, three pints of tea, two
ounces of butter and half a dozen
rolls.

COSMETIC BATHS OF 1880
Years Ago Women Sought Aids to
Beauty as They Are Reputed to
Do To-Day.

The following rules for cosmetic
baths may be of interest to-day;
they are taken from a ladies maga-
zine published in Boston IS years
ago:
An aromatic bath-Takc one or
more of the following aromatic
herbs: Balm, sweet basil, marjor-
am. hysson, lavender, mint, or any
other herb that has an agreeable
scent; boil in a sufficient quantity
of rain or river water for the space
of three or four minutes; strain off
the. liquor, and add to it a little
brandy or camphorated spirits of
wine. This is said to be an excel
lent bath TO strengthen the limbs;
it removes pain, the consequence
Of cold, and promotes perspiration.
4 cosmetic bath-Take two
pourtls of barley or meal, eight
pounds Of bran and few handfuls
of borage leaves. Boil these ingre-
dients in a sufficient quantity of
spring water. This both cleanses
and softens the skin in a superior
degree.
An emollcnt bath for the feet
Boil in a sufficient quantity of wa
ter pound Of bran, with few
marsh-mallow roots, and two or
three handfuls of mallow leaves.

"And now about the sky" he said
as he put on the finishing touches !;

Amarillo Will Have
On January 9. 10 and II, 1908,

On January 9, 10 and II, 1908,
we will have in Amarillo a meet
ing of Commercial Clubs, real es-
tate firms and the principal land
owners of the entire Panhandle,
all of which will be organized
into one association; also the Palo
Duro National Park Association,
a Panhandle Farmers Congress,
Third District Medical Associa-
citation and we expect to have the
Northwest Texas Press ASsocia-
ton.
The consolidation of the com
mercial clubs. real estate and
land men is for the purpose of
advertising the entire Panhandle
country. This can be done by
keeping the country and its pos
sibilitieS we'll advertised in the
principal farm journals of The
North and East, and through ex,
hibitS kept AT the principal gate
ways of the Southwest, such as
Chicago, Minneapolis, Omaha,
Kansas City, Fort Worth, Den
yer, etc.
This organization is also to-
provide markets for the products
of our truck gardens, storage for
cabbage, potatoes, peanuts and
onions and to handle our canta-
loupes, tomatoes and small gar
den truck, and also to encourage
picking plants and canning fac
tories.
We have the assurance of a.
sugar beet factory, provided we
can thoroughly demonstrate next
year that beets can be grown in
this section successfully. For
the past few years the expert
ment has been made with sue
cess, the beet standing high
test, and it is our purpose to
have as many counties as posi- |
bic in the Panhandle grow them !
another year, and to this end, we
expect to raise from $4,000 to |
$1,000 to be offered in premiums |
for the best acre of sugar beets, !
wheat, corn, oats, cotton and !
fruit, grown in 1908, also dairy |
ing, hogs, cattle, etc.
There will be addresses on this
occasion from men of national
reputation, who are experts in
their various lines, as well as
from local men, and it is our de- !
sire to have just as many people |
present as possible, especially |
those Interested in agricultural |
pursuits.
