A Wheat hospital.

This wheat has been through the
hospital" said a miller. II can tell
by the fine polish on the grains. Wheat
that has been through the hospital for
smut disease comes out better than
well wheat"
The wheat grains, In truth shone so
that one could almost see ones face In
them.
"You can see your face in them,
can't youT said the miller, "And no
wonder. They've been through drastic
reatment-drastic. Smut is nasty
disease, a kind of mold, that changes
the starch and gluten In wheat to a
black powder When you see flour
full of black specks it is sign that
some of the wheat was smutted. The
cure is first to wash the wheat thor
oughly. Then you dry 1t. Then you
scour 1t. Then you dry 1t again.
Finally you brush it. Wheat hospitals
they are found in most grain ele-
vators nowadays-have big machines
for washing, drying, securing and
brushing the grain, and wheat on Its
very last legs comes out of those in.

An Astrologer's Letter.

An astrologer's letter to President
Van Buren forecasting the results OF
his election in 1910 is in the library
of congress and perhaps gives crude
idea of some Of the fallacies Of our
grandfathers. The following are some
extracts: "In this horoscope the as
cendant directed to the semisquare of
Mars would be In operation about the
middle Of the fourth year, October,
17S5, and might cause sickness, -
fux or hurt by wounds" etc.
81 have opened the horoscope for Cen
eral Harrison, which accords with the
chief events Of his past life and which
If right he will not Afn the office Of
president during the next term even
If elected. And the danger | appre-
hend to yourself is not from your pub
lie opponents, but from those on whom
you repose confidence Those who
are superstitious may be inclined to
credit this star gazer with some meas
ure Of wisdom. for Harrison, although
elected, died month after his inau-
guration.-New York Post

Home Loving Montenesrins.

Nowhere is love Of country more In
tense than among the Montenegrins,
to whom exile Is the greatest Of pun
ishments. When w. ]. Stillman was
there in the seventies all the free men
were away fighting, and he observed
that when a messenger was wanted
the official took a man out Of the pris-
on and sent him off, with no fear that
be would not return. One such mes
senger was sent to Cattaro, In Aus
trian territory, with large sum OF
money for the bank, and he duly came
back. Another asked Russian at
Cattaro to intercede with Prince Mich
olas for his release from prison. But
you are not in prison." said the Rus
sian. "Oh," said the man, Il have
only come down for n load Of skins
for So-and-so, but l must go into pris-
on again when get back to Cettinje." d"
One prison guard watched all the pris-
oners when they summed themselves
out of doors, and If he was called
away a prisoner would take his rifle
and act as sentry for the time.

LUMBER KING WILL
VISIT PORTLAND SOON

Portland.-Frederick Weyerhaeu-
ser, "the lumber king of America"
was in the city yesterday enroute to
his home in st. Paul after having
spent a few days taking in the A.-Y.-
p. exposition and looking over his
interests in the pacific northwest.
The Weyernaeuser syndicate holds
immense tracts Of timber in Oregon,
Idaho and Washington and is also
engaged in the operation of large log
ging camps under different names.
Mr. Weyerhaeuser's visit was very
brief, but as he is man finding time
to do a great deal in surprisingly
brief periods, it is supposed that he
got pretty well acquainted with con-
ditlons during the few hours he was
here.
The Weyerhaeusers own large
tract Of land on the east bank Of the
Willamette. near St. Johns, where
large sawmill will eventually be
built, and this project it is supposed
was given some consideration since
Mr.. Weyeraeuser believes that from
now on the lumber industry is going
10 show rapid improvement.
Mr.. WeyerhaeUser feels less pessi-
mistic regarding the future Of the
lumber business than most men and
is unable to see the danger Of exter-
mlnatlon Of the forests within the
next 20 years or so, even If operations
are carried on in a vigorous manner
He says the financial poise Of the
nation has been restored and tina
the lumber outlook is encouraging
Now that The tariff IS practically ad
justed on basis that will meet will
the wishes Of lumbermen, he said
a rapid revival Of business will fol
low.

Abroad.

Abroad is a locality entirely sur
rounded by saasickness. In another
view it is a bourne more or less mys-
terious, bounded on its farther side by
your income and on its hither side by
custom houses where you have to de-
clare everything you bring back with
you except a foreign accent and one
change Of hosiery.
Abroad is where
1. They put
a. Labels all over your luggage and
b. 1t all over you.
2. You are almost always going
down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and
the good Samaritan invariably wants
a tip.
Abroad is the stage of history, but
that is only because history made the
too common mistake Of not seeing
America first.-Puck.

Nicotine.

"If excessive smoking alone could
cause heart degeneration" writes cor
respondent Of the London Mail, such
cases would be common instead Of ex-
tremely rare. The fact Is that only an
almost infinltesimal amount of nicotine
Is absorbed in smoking. An ordinary
sized cigar or an ounce Of smoking to-
bacco contains enough Of this vlrulent
poison to kill two men. The only rea-
son all smokers are not killed at once
Is that the nicotine is destroyed in the
combustion Of the leaf"
