Is a RELIC or THE PAST.
Blind Veteran Of the Palnny Days o
the Circus.

II IL not often that one may have
his dinner cooked by q woman who
can at the same time give reminis-
cences Of the stage dating back for
hall. q century. She who possesses
this remarkable memory Is the pro-
prietor of an inn of odd construction
which Is not far from Greenwood Lake,
in New Jersey. She has been identi-
ned with practically every phase. not
only OF the stage, but OF the circus.
She IL now blind, but her mind is so
filed with images OF the past that she
is never depressed. She remembers
p T. Barnum, James A. Bailey and
all the old-time kings OF the tented
field, for in her younger days she was
performer in the ring The palmy
days of minstrelsy she can talk about
for the hour, recalling anecdotes OF
Wambold and Backus and old Billy
Emerson. Then by quick transition
she will 60 to the drama and talk
entertainingly of Florence and Jeffer
son and the elder Sothern. In the
meantime she Is busy about the de
tails of the dinner and is carrying on
the complicated operations as easily
~ though her sight was as keen and
strong as it was in the days of her tri,
umphs of ring and stage.

EGG A CONCEALED WEAPON.
Decision Of a New Jersey Justice
Seems to Convey That Impression.

Newark, N. J.--Prof. William Kleg-
er, instructor for colony of physical
culturists at Spotswood, N. j., whose
rational dress vagaries have caused
much comment, was held for the
grand jury by Justice Bovine for ma.
licious mischief.
At minstrel show given in Odd
Fellows hall the physical culturists
were ridiculed and some of them
thereupon threw lemons and eggs at
the performers, breaking up the show.
Justice Bovine was standing at the
door of the hall when an egg which
had seen better days changed the
color of his brand new hat. Professor
kleger was arrested as being the lead.
er of the disturbers. YEA
AT the hearing Mr.. Schenck pro-
duced an egg which he swore he took
from Kleger's hand. 1t was made ex-
hibit A. The quality Of the egg was
not ascertained.
Arthur Clark. counsel for Professor
kleger. argued that his client could
not be held for the grand jury. III
isn't malicious mischief to carry an
egg" he said, "and 1t isn't concealed
weapons, either"
Justice Bovine, however, considered
that Kleger's egg was calculated ia
stir up mischief and responsible for
the disturbance which broke up the
spirit of peace which had always hov
cred over the village Of Sp0tswood
until the physical culturists appeared

VOLCANO USES TELEPHONE.
The Crater Of Kilauea Connects with
Hotel.

Honolulu.--Song writer's have talked
of telephoning to heaven and fiction
writer's have sought to make use Of
the, telephone in other plots, but nqne
thus far has been SO bold as to sug
gest telephoning to the Internal fires
of the worlds most gigantic active
volcano. But this is the daring plot
which has been undertaken by George
Lycurgus, the manager of the Volcano
house, on the island of Hawaii. He Is
having telephone line strung from
the Kilanea Volcano house down into
the mighty crater of Kilauea, across
the floor of this wonderful place to
the very brink of the Halemaumau,
the Pit of Fire, where the flames and
smoke and steam and fiery lava Of
Nine. Pele's dwelling place are, con-
stantly in activity. The idea Is to
have the telephone strung from the
Volcano house to the edge Of the Pit
of Fire, distance Of between two
and three miles, so that constant COM
munication between the outside world
and the dwelling place Of Mme. Peie,
the Hawaiian goddess of nre, can be

EATS $500 EGGS AND DIES.
consumptive Makes Heroic Effort te
Cure HimseH by Dieting.

Marion, Ind--After eating more
than $500 raw eggs and drinking 273
gallons of fresh milk in year, in an
effort to cure himself of tuberculosis,
Amos Bell, citizen of Fairmount,
sickened of his diet, which became
nauseating, and declined rapidly until
death occurred
His experience with the use of raw
eggs and milk in an effort to cure con.
sumption has been watched with in.
terest by physicians. He began the
experiment more than year ago. He
adopted diet of three raw eggs and
three quarts of milk for days
ratlons. He gained flesh from the first
and finally reached his normal weight
Of 150 pounds. = ~
He kept account of the eggs he had
eaten, and after eating more than 3. 600
the diet became nauseatihg and he
was compelled to discontinue the use
of 1t. He was feeling very well at the
time he quit eating the raw eggs,
although he still had cough. That
was three months ago. He then began
to lose weight rapidly. Mr.. Bell was
33 years old and Is survived by hia
widow and one child.

THE CAT THAT REASONED.
Family Pet Made the Best Of Unfa
miiiar Situation.


"Talking about the ability of ami
mails to reason" said citizen. you
ought to see my wife's cat. He Is 9
spoiled beast, and in the evening
when the family is sitting about the
lamp no objection Is made to his
jumping up on the table and walking
around to be petted. But one thing
he has learned by dint of several good
whippings is that he must never gel
up on the table when II 10 spread for
. meal. Well, one night recently when
We came home from the theater We
decided to have little supper, and
my wife spread q cloth over the end
OF the table. The cat just then en-
tered the room. Walking to the table
he was about to jump up when he
caught sight of the white cloth over
one end. Il was plain that he was
puzsled. First he went to the end
that had no cloth. hesitated. and then
returned to look at the end that con.
tanned the cloth. My wife and l stood
still to watch him, and we had no
doubt that he was assuring himself
that the cloth was really there. At
length he jumped up on a chair by
the table so as to survey its top. The
half of the table at which he sat was
free from the cloth, and finally he
very cautiously climbed up on the
table and slowly crossing over to the
half which contained the cloth, sal
down at the very edge"

COMPLEXION SECRETS
Only One Way to Secure a Clear
Skin.

In most instances a bad complex
ion is due to neglect Of the little
things in life that are essential to
natural beauty. All manner Of sug-
IgestiOns have been offered by skin
specialists, but all agree that the
only sure way to secure clear,
healthy complexion is To conform
closely as possible to the laws of
nature. To preserve your fresh
mes and beauty, you should live sim
Iply, take plenty of outdoor exercise,
drink quantities Of water and be
careful of your diet. Remember,
too, that beauty is good deal more
than skin deep. 1t is blood deep,
amt depends also upon your liver,
iy0ur kidneys and the activity of your
/, bowels. For nearly two years now,
they have been telling the ladies of
the beneficial effects that Laxakola
Tonic Tablets have ON the skin.
The principal ingredients in them
are cascarin and dandelion and ev-
lery doctor knows that these rem
ledies start the liver going, drive
out impurities, encourage the ac-
tion Of the bowels and help clear
up the complexion. $500

WILL HONOR ROBERT FULTON.
America to Make Display at Bordeaux
Maritime Exposition.

Washington There is every indica-
ton, in the opinion Of the state de-
partment, that congress will answer

Many of the great nations. includ-
Ing Russia, Great Britain, Japan. Italy,
Belgium and Mexico, will send exhib-
Its and in some cases men-of-war.
This government has in mind the
construction Of a pavilion. It will be
very Simple and not cost more than
$4,000 or $4,000, which is regarded
Sufficient for the purpose. AS soon
as congress has made the desired ap-
preparation commission will proba-
bly, be appointed to gather from mu.
seums and other places relics worth
