More Than They Asked.

The proprietors of lunch counters
in London railway stations date their
eggs. They mark on the she'll of a
boiled egg the date it was laid. The
evident purpose is to reassure doubt

few weeks ago arrived at station
shortly before midnight, and, following
the habit Of most travellers, made at
once for the lunch counter. They de-
manded eggs from the waitress and
asked that they might have some of
that days laying. Him sorry" she

In the old days Of sailing ships It
was a common thing for sea captain
to buy the wind for his voyage.

Icelanders. When a constant success

TANNER to pay visit to Iceland for
the sole purpose of purchasing wind

or two
In every port in Iceland one or more
wind wizards" were to be found, who
were ready to sell a favorable wind for
the next six months or year to any
sea captain willing to invest in some
thing he could not see. The sailor, hav-
ing found his way to the magiclan's
house, first proceeded to spread out
upon the floor the articles offered in
payment for the wind--tallow candles.
cloth. beads, knives. powder and lead.
After a good deal of haggling and
many times adding to or taking away
from the little pile of merchandise be-
tween them the price was finally
agreed upon. and the captain passed
over his handkerchief to the Icelander
The wind merchant muttered certain
words into 1t. tying n knot in the hand
kerchief at the end of each incanta-
ton. This was done to keep the magic
words from evaporating. When a GER
tain number of knots had been tied,
the handkerchief was returned to its
owner. with strict charge to keep it
knotted and guard it with extra rdi-
nary care until he arrived at the de-
sired port, and at each port knot was
to be taken out.
One old captain had been so bothered
with head winds that he kept CRYING
out to the lcelander to tie another knot
in the handkerchief and another and
another, so as to be sure of plenty Of
the wished for zephyrs. until finally
there was no room for any more knots
and three knives and thirty candles
had been added to the heap on the
floor. But when the wind greedy cap
tain was two days at sea terrific gale
began to hurl the ship ahead of it.

This is simple home recipe now

ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in a
battle. The dose is one teaspoonful
after each meal and at bedtime.
Recent experiments prove this sim

organs to filter from the bolod and

The Republican-Re Register or Gales
burg had the following to say of C. F.
Mcfarland and his address there last
Sunday:
Before an audience that almost com.
pletely filed the Gaiety Theatre Sun
day afternoon, c. F. Mcfarland Of
keokuk, Iowa, better known perhaps
as THE Keokuk Firebrand" applied
the light of the gospel to the hun
dreds in the audience and before the
meeting was concluded several souls
had been born into the kingdom of
God. She address was one of the most
inspiring and helpful ever delivered
in the city. Mr.. Mcfarland is a
straight out and out speaker, who
drives straight from the shoulder. yet
speaks with warmth and feeling that
wakes at times into an eloquence
SO absolutely irresistible that the
auditors were carried along by the
force of his words.
NH Mcfarland is not preacher.
He made that clear to his audience at
the start. He is a plain, every day
business man, but his soul was so
deeply stirred by Billy Sunday sew
eral years ago in Keokuk that he has
been going around the country ever
since, whenever the opportunity was
presented, and trying to life men to
the better life
A column synopsis of his address
was also given in the paper from
which the above is quoted.
