This rebellion, which has convuls-

Gets 2,740 Pennies.

Mason City, Ia.-An express pack age containing 2,74O pennies is just now disturbing Merchant Liebsohn of Bancroft. The pennies came from by sart, iowa, but there is no way of find ing out who the sender was. He paid 43 cents express charges and then put the pail on the floor.
 When Liebsohn broke the cover, out rolled the pennies in every direction. Clerks and assistants went to work counting them, and found the above number. No one owes him conscience money, he is not given to tricks of any kind, and he, is very anxious now to get soothsayer to explain this mys- tery.
 The pennies have been deposited and will be held until further develop ments.

MILKMEN SAVE OHIO BABIES
Defy City Ordinance for the Purpose of AIlayins Suffering Among
 Children.

Lorain, O.-For the purpose of al laying any suffering due to the scar city of milk and to save any infants whose lives may be dependent upon fresh milk, the law and the milk famine were partially broken here by the milk dealers.
 Mayor King declared that he would arrest any dealer who delivered milk without a license. To obtain a li- cense it was necessary for the dealers to obtain their milk from dairymen whose cows had passed the tubercu- lin test. This the milkmen refused to do, and when it was made com pulsory by a city ordinance the deal CTS decided to boycott the city. As result the 30,0OO residents of this city were without milk. About so per cent. of the usual supply is now being delivered

Campaign Started in England to
 Prevent Premature Burial.
Appointment of a Professional Veri fer of Deaths in Each Coroner's District Suggested in Report
 to Home Secretary.
Copyright by Waldon Fawcett.

London.-The appointment of pro fessional verifier of deaths in every coroner's district to remove the haunt ing fear of being buried alive eXper- fenced by many nervous and aged peo- pie was one of the interesting sugges- tions made by Dr. Walter Hadwen in his evidence before the departmental committee appointed by the home sec retary to inquire into the law relating to coroners' inquests. :"
 The establishment of waiting niortu- aries where the professional veritier would watch for positive proof of death was another of Dr. Hadwen' s propositions. These would be pleas ing places, with ornaments and flow CTS, like those in Munich and Berlin.
 The evidence he had collected went to show that there was no definite, undeniable proof of death apart from incipient putrefaction. There were in stances, Dr. Hadwen told the commit
 tee, of persons who had come to life

TREATS SICK BABY ON CAR
Father of Eighteen, Familiar with Chldren's Ailments, Saves
 Infants Life.

New York-James Maher is the ia ther of IS children and what he doesn't know about convulsions, measles, humps, whooping cough, and such things wouldn't take a doctor long to learn. Maher also is inspector for the Coney Island & Brooklyn rail way.
 A young mother had young baby in a street car the other afternoon and the infant got convulsions and the mother got mysteries, and the other women in the car got into the street The motorman stopped the car.
 Here" yelled Maher as he got aboard and took in the situation, "get to that drug store on the corner quick and bring back some mustard and a dishpan of hot water"
 The motQrman soon was back with them.
 Maher swiftly took the baby's clothes off and had it's feet in a hot mustard bath, while the women gath, cred about and wondered why none of them had thought of it.
 You've saved the kids life," said a surgeon from Seney hospital.

SMART STOCK EASY TO MAKE
One of the Prettest of the Season Calls for Comparatively
 Small Outlay.

One of the smartest of the new stocks is so easily copied that almost any girl can make herself one at small cost.
 The collar and long strip reach ing to the bust line is of semi-trans- parent Japanese linen. Both sides of the collar and strip are finished in m irregular scallop buttonholed in deep tone of old blue This also runs around the bottom of the strip, which forms a semi-circle.
 The center of collar and strip arc worked in detached yepetaled flowers interspersed with dots of diff ferent sizes.
 Surrounding the strip and making the ruching for the top of the collar is footing or fine net. This is turned in narrow hem an eighth of an inch deep, which is run with the three shades used in embroidery. This stitching may either be outlining or, as the ruffie is plaited and takes quite a length of material, it can be done on the machine if you have one which makes a chain stitch
 The plating around the long tab is about three-quarters of an inch wide, while that used as ruching in narrow enough to be becoming.

FORGETTING ART OF WALKING
destrian Exercise a Discovery of Recent Hygiene.

Walking is going out Of fashion; if something is not done 1t will soon become lost exercise de clared a physician who, supporting the Lancets contention, affirms that the ill effects arising from a lack. of healthful eXercise-due to laziness and to the motor car, tube, and other con veniences of travel nowaday-form one of the greatest problems of the moment as regards public health.
 Young men are forgetting how to walk,7' he added Yet walking is un- doubtedly the exercise for city men. However busy they are they can find the short time daily which is the only demand this exercise makes. It's very simplicity makes some people dis count it and turn to elaborate eXer- cises. Yet it is natures exercise,
 "One of the most striking discover ies of quite recent physiology is con nected with the therapeutic effect of walking. The action of walking-not to use too technical terms-pumps energy through the frame as does no other means known to science. The walkers are the health winners, and it may be said that walking has a moral effect not less destinct than its physical effect
 "A great employer of labor has said that all his foremen over a long sue cession of years Were country bred men, and he attributed their success solely to the fact that they walked to their work, with the result that they arrived beyond comparison more fit and vigorous, not to add more punctu- ally than the 'trammers.'
 Bouts of a most praiseworthy zeal for exercise-Swedish exercises, Jap ansese exercises, American exercises come over people, and these play their part. But they are rarely regu- larly practiced, largely because they are dull, and at the best they are no proper substitute for the natural, and, 1t is now discovered, the irreplacable, exercise of walking"

SETTING OFF DINING TABLE
New Patterns in Cut Glass Are Formed In imitation of Beautiful
 Flowers.

It is not usual for new patterns in cut glass to come in very plentifully. but the designers and manufacturers CTS have united in a recent effort and we are shown three beautiful flowers in the newest glass dishes for our dining tables We have the daisy, with a butterfly lowering above 1t in a most graceful and perfect design, made in various-shaped vessels. both tall and flat.
 Then we have the Scotch thistle. which is unique in cut glass. and the clover leaf and blossom so perfect in the cutting that we wonder there Is not a more persistent effort to re- produce every available flower.
 Another and a greater wonder is that so many housewives are given to sheltering all of these beautiful dishes -perchance from the careless hands of servants-until the "mere posses. sion" of them has got to be mania. It is really better to get the good out of things than to drift gradually into what is known as "a slave to your possessions"
 Cut glass should be cleansed in soapsuds and then polished with saw dust and chamois skin

STOP BURNING ALIVE

after they had been placed in the waiting mortuaries.
 Curious cases of death counterfeits were narrated by Dr. Hadwen from his own experience. During the Gloucester smallpox epidemic of 1896 a child believed to be dead of con fluent smallpox was removed from hos pital to the mortuary. Next day a gardener passing by the window of the mortuary heard the cries of the child The little one was carried back to the ward and recovered.
 In another case Dr. Hadwen had been attending a child of three suffer ing from convulsions with subsequent exhaustion. There seemed no hope of recovery, and he left the little patient one night thinking he had seen him for the last time.
 Next day when the doctor reached the cottage the blinds were drawn and the broken-hearted parents were weep .ing by the side of the little body, which lay covered with a white sheet, and the undertaken was expected to bring the coffin in a few minutes r Looking down at the supposed dead child, the doctor fancied he could de. tect the slightest movement of the chest. He tried the pulse, but failed to detect beat. A stethoscope re- vealed a heart beat, and after hot fiannels had been applied and the body massaged for three hours the child was able to take nourishment.

NEW CUSTOMS LAWS
Amended to Conform to Require ments of Payne Law, Issued
 by Treasury.
Acting Secretary Reynolds Sends Out Regulations Governing Free Entry of Domestic Exported, and Then
 Brought Back Here.

Washington, D. C-The customs regulations governing the free entry of domestic products exported and afterwards brought back to this coun- try, amended to conform to the re- ouirements of the Payne law, have been issued by Acting Secretary of the Treasury Reynolds.
 AS a result of a recommendation made by the attorney general about a year ago, exporters of domestic whisky will have to produce a sworn certificate declaring the whisky to be in the same condition as when eX- ported in order to obtain entry or the goods free of duty.
 = The new law exempts domestic an imals from the duty-free provisions when returned to this country. They will have to pay the same duty when reimported as foreign animals. me regulation permitting the entry free of duty of domestic animals exported for racing and exhibition purposes is not affected by the other provision.
 Moving picture films of American manufacture are entitled to free i'm portation, after having been exported, only if they are damaged or light struck, so as to be unsuitable for any other purpose than the recovery of the constituent materials.
 The new regulations also provide for the entry duty free of iron or steel drums used for the shipment of acids, of either domestic or foreign manu- facture, which shall have been actual ly exported from the United States. Preparatory to the collection of the tax placed upon foreign built yachts by the Payne tariff law, Acting Secre. tary of the Treasury Reynolds for warded instructions to the collector of customs at New York to inquire of owners of such yachts whether | they desire to pay the tonnage tax of s7 ton annually or the ad .valor- em duty of 35 per cent. of the ap- 1 praised value of the yachts at the time the duty is collected.

The next tax is to be collected on the 1st of September and l the customs officials are now prepar' 1 ing a list of the foreign built pleasure boats owned or chartered by Ameri- cans.
 Internal revenue collectors have been instructed to canvass their re spective districts and obtain for the treasury department a list of the cor porations which will be subject to the new corporation tax embodied in the Payne tariff law. Included in the list will be information regarding the amount of the capital stock of the corporations and their places of busi- ness. The corporations are divided into five classes-fnancial and com mercial. industrial and manufacturing public service, mercantile, and miscel- laneous. This information is to be gathered preliminary to the determin' ation of the regulations of the collec- tion of the corporation tax.

Claims Million Acres.

Marietta Obligation has been started here by an heir of John Paul Jones, the famous American naval hero. for about 100000 acres of land near this city. Mrs. Combault of Paris, France, an heir of Admiral Jones, asserts she has deed of trust for the land given her by other heirs of the naval officer and Attorney A. Dewey Follett has started proceedings to gain possession of the property. The records of this county show that Ad- mirai Jones once owned the land in question and there seems to be noth- ing to indicate that it does not now belong to his heirs.
