AS TO ORIGIN Of THE SPOON.
Shells Probably First Used for Pur
pose in Prehistoric Times.

The suggestion is offered by a cor
respondent that the domestic spoon
probably owes its origin to the shell.
Shells of the mussel. scallop, and oy-
ster, it is believed, were used in pre-
historic times as spoons and ladies',
the handle being formed Of a piece
Of wood split at one end to hold the
shell firmly. Some savage nations
make similar spoons up to the present
day. and the old Highland custom OF
offering whisky in shell has been
probably handed down from genera.
ton to generation for untold ages.
Westman In his History of the
Spoon" gives Roman specimens. which
are very simple in design-something
like silver caddy spoons-and are
much shorter in the handle than those
from Egypt. Those for common. use
were generally made Of bronze, iron
or brass. They clearly show how the
shell shape was retained. and their
marine origin Is also preserved in the
name Of spoon-cochlea
from cochlea. shell or cookie. The
Celtic spoon also closely resembled
the shell in form. though made Of
bronze. The horns Of various animals,
such as the OK. bison and ram, were
often used as drinking cups. and as
the material was found suitable. 1t
was sometimes used with wood, ivory.
metal, ETC., for spoon making. Hence
the ancient expression: ITO spoil .

Not Their Fault,

A broad-minded dominic, whose par
ish was near the headwaters of the
Susquehanna, had among his parish
toner's character who was more
punctual at the fishing-hole down the
river than he was at the church on
Sundays. Bright and early one Mon
day morning this Sabbath fisherman
called the preacher to the door and
presented him with very fine and
tempting string of pickerel The dom
tnie was very profuse with his thanks
for gift that was indeed welcome.

Made Sure Pair Was There.

A through train stopped few mo.
ments at small station the other
day., A passenger got off to walk
around a little. AS the train began
to move again the passenger jumped
aboard. but just then he discovered
that he had but one overshoe. Think
ing that he dropped the other some
where on the platform, and as the
train was going too fast for him to
jump OFF and recover it, he pulled off
the remaining shoe and threw 1t on
the platform, excfaiming: There.
that makes good pair of overshoes
for somebody" Entering the car, he
proceeded to his seat There, to his
great establishment, was his overshoe.
A look of intense disgust came over
his face. but he did not hesitate.
Quickly picking up the lone arctic, he
hurried to the platform. threw the
shoe as far as he could back toward
the other one. and shouted: "By
jimminy. there is a pair of overshoes
for somebody"

He spoke both English and French ad-

him. His courage, fidelity and dis
erection l had tested more than once.
He lay quite still on the pier, gazing
out upon the lake, and l knew that
something unusual had attracted his
attention. He spoke to me in a mo-
ment, but without turning his head.
"A man has been rowing up and
down the shore for an hour. When
he came in close here l asked him
what he wanted and he rowed away
without answering. He is now OF

the habit of gazing at the rafters in
his dining-room when saying grace.
One day while SO engaged he for

something like this: 1--WE thank thee

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid Of Coffee Heart"

The injurious action Of Coffee on the
heart of many persons is well known
by physicians to be caused by CAT
feline. This is the drug found by chem.
lists in coffee and tea.
A woman suffered long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cof-
fee. as that was the principal cause
OF the trouble. She writes:
My heart was so weak 1t could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table, and it would seem that
would never breathe again.
The doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness Of my heart. He
said must stop it, but 1t seemed I
could not give 1t up until 1 was down
In bed with nervous prostration.
For eleven weeks lay there and
suffered. Finally Husband brought
home some Postum and / quit coffee
and started new and right. Slowly I
got well. Now l do not have any head
aches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it is Postum that
helped me. The DR.. said the other day.
I never thought you would be what
you are. used to weigh 90 pounds
and now weigh 1853.

conduct had occurred in every precinct
to the detriment of Mushet, and cited
the reported fact that 500 ballots had
been cast out for various reasons, and
that in one precinct alone 38 ballots had
been cast out. He declared that Mu-
shetS contest was not as candidate
but as an elector, and that for that
reason the proceedings were legal. lie
declared also that the primary was an
election to ali intents and purposes
within the meaning of the law. He
argued that to keep the ballots sealed
and not to make most comprehensive
investigation into the case was to al
low frauds to go unnoticed and dis
franchise voters. Judge Works argued
along the same line, declaring that he
as an individual was more interested
than he is as a lawyer, for he feels
that in the present contest the primary
law is being tested in its real efficacy
for expressing the will of the people.
Scarcely a point made by Mr.. MeserVe
was overlooked by Mushets attorneys,
who cited dozens of authorities in line
with their arguments. The one main
point made by the Mushet forces was
that the primary contest Is an election
to all intents and purposes of the law,
and that inquiries into it should be
made in the same manner as in a reg
ular election for the selection of candi-
dates to hold office.

AERO CLUBMEN
WILL Be FETED
THOMAS WALSH PLANS FEAST
FOR AVIAT0RS
WANTS INTERNATIONAL MEET
FOR NEXT YEAR
Washington and Baltimore in Field
for Big Contest-DenVer and
Los Angeles Leading
Bidders

NEW YORK, Nov. 2O-Thomas f.
Walsh, the western mining millionaire,
will entertain the directors of the Aero
Club of America at dinner at the
Metropolitan club next Tuesday even
ing, and at the same time he will pre-
sent the claims of the Aero club of
Washington and Baltimore for the in
ternational aviation meet of 1910.
The two cities have named no special
amount which they are willing to give,
but it is understood that it will be $780,
600 or more.
William Il. Metzger of Detroit will be
here in a few days to make an offer
on behalf of that city.
Among the bids which have been
made for the aerial contests are those
from Oakland, Cal, and Portland, ore,
both of which have offered $4,000
each.
Denver and Los Angeles are strong
bidders. No effort has been made yet
TO secure the contests for the Hemp
stead Plains on Long Island. but some
members of the Aero club are agitating
the matter.
There seems to be little doubt now
that st. Louis will get the international
balloon races to be held next year, as
it has offered a considerable sum OF
money, but principally because of The
splendid facilities IL affords.
Decision on the place of holding the
two contests is expected soon.
