ARTIFICIAL COLORS USED.
Little Crushed Fruit That Has Not
Been Adulterated.

Nine times out of ten. the luscious
dishes of crushed fruit which are seen
at all soda fountains this kind Of
weather are artificially colored or
favored, or contain benzoate Of soda
for preservative. So announces the
state pure food department, and
along with this announcement comes
the warning to sellers of soda water
that if their crushed fruits and fruit
juices are either colored, favored or
chemically preserved. there must be
posted on the soda fountain a notice
to that effect.
1--WE have been pretty lenient with
the soda water people," said DR..
Crumbine, "by merely allowing
them to post a monumental notice on
their fountains concerning the char
acter of their f1avoring, instead of
requiring that each receptacle Of fruit
or flavor be thus labeled, as strictly
required by the law. All this crush
ed fruit, with possibly one or two ex-
ceptions, is preserved by the use of
benzoate of soda. The pure food
laws have not absolutely barred this
preservative, though they require
that notice of it's use be given to con-
sumers."

into operation whenever Excess

impossible for the car to move

The operating switch is so
arranged as automatically to

Smallest Birds the Bravest.

Birds fearless are the humming birds.
So unafraid are these charming crea-
lures that they readily will enter open
windows of houses If they see the
flowers within. They even have been
known to visit the artificial flowers
on a wOman's hat when she was walk
ing out, and other writer's speak of
their taking sugar from between a
persons lips. In room they become
confused and, being frail, are apt to
injure themselves by striking against
objects. 1t is of no use to try to
keep them in captivity unless possibly
1t were in greenhouse. where there
were plenty of flowers, for no artificial
food ever has been found which will
nourish them. Yet even in green
house they probably would kill them
selves by flying against the glass.

Love Told on Persian Cushions.

Certain sentimental young women
are embroidering Oriental cushions as
gifts for their best young men or

their best young men. Lines of Per.

lightful significance because he doesn't

One girl is weaving phrase to the eff.

and the young man of her affections

VALE MEN TAKE TO THE LAW.
The Bar Still Attracts One.Third Of the
Universlty's Graduates.

The statisticians at Yale have
drawn up table to show what occu-
pations the graduates of the institu.
ton have chosen in the last century.
From the table 1t appears that the
ministry has fallen off greatly as an
attraction.
When the century opened about 80
per cent. of Yale graduates were min
listers. Beginning with 1860 this num-
Der took a great fall Since 1865 the
average has been six per cent.
The averages for law and medicine
have remained about the same. AS a
rule ten per cent. of Yale's graduates
are doctors. In law the figures have
been steadily about 33 per cent.
In teaching and science the figures
have increased very gradually from
about two per cent. to IL per cent.
The strongest upward tendency has
been that of business. The farmers
have fallen off ever since the southern
planters ceased to enter Yale.
Business now attracts about one.

PUsLIc HAS RIGHT TO KNOW.
Truthful Labels on Canned Goods Is
a Requisite.

Determined effort is being made by
the manufacturers OF canned goods
throughout the country to induce the
secretary of agriculture to defer the
enforcement of the provision of the
pure food act which requires the label
on canned goods to state the sub
stance of the product and the place of
manufacture" The chief argument
used la making the appeal is that the
manufacturers have already had
printed labels. costing at least $780,
900, that would be lost by the enforce.

The argument of the Gamers will,
not hold. They have had ample NC
tice of the operation of the law and
all of its provisions. and it must be
their loss II they have not made prep.

Henry Starr, Cherokee Ex.Bandit,
Was Convicted in 1894.

Guthrie, Ok.-1he early history OF
Henry Starr, the Cherokee ex-bandit,
Is recalled by a request from the gov
ernor of Arkansas upon Governor
Haskell Of Oklahoma for the return
of Starr to Benton county, Ark,
where he was indicted for robbery,
alleged to have been committed
years ago. Attorney General West,
in passing upon the application, adj
vises the government not to honor
the requisition, stating that the al
legged crime was committed when
tribal government of the Cherokee
nation was in full force, and that the
authority of an Indian nation for a
crime committed when that nation
or territory was not a part OF the
state or territory of the ur ION may
be doubted. The opinion also states
that Starr was a mere boy of IA
when the crime was committed and
has for a number of years been a
good citizen.
Starr was sent to Sing Sing i'm

Floyd Wilson, and was convicted for
