1t is reported that the great
Pabst brewery at Milwaukee,
which used to run seven days
and seven nights in the week, is
now only running three days a
week. The AnheuSer Busch
brewery at ST. Louis has acres of
space filed with returned fxtur-
es from closed saloons. The
brewers storehouses in Milwau-
kee are overlooking with these
returned saloon fixtures, hun
dreds of carloads of them, and
as no insurance can be obtained
on them and the rental of more
storage space is expensive, the
brewers have begun to burn
them. When asked why his
company would not insure stored
saloon fixtures, an insurance
man replied: We are not writ
ing insurance on worthless
goods" Prohibition seems to
prohibit to some extent; and the
temperance wave evidently is

When a man is through with
match, he throws it on the floor,
and few hours later his wife
comes along, stoops over and
picks it up. He knows when he
throws it there that his wife will
have to pick it up. but that makes
no difference. At a recent gath
ering of Spins, it was voted that
this little incident Of married
life alone was enough to make a
Suffragette of woman. 1t
seems" said one, as if a man
still regarded woman as slave;
he won't let her pick up her
handkerchief before marriage,
but afterward he throws matches
on the floor on purpose for her
to pick up" One woman sput
tered so fiercely IN her indigna-
ton that all the WON en- standing
near had to raise umbrellas.

Only One African Rhino.
Theodore Roosevelt In Scribner.


For years most South African hunt
ers, and most naturalists, believed in
the existence Of two species of pre-
hensile Tipped, Oh so-called black"
rhinoceros; m with the front horn
much the longer, one with the rear
horn at least equal to the front. It
was selous, a s~ingularly clear sighted
and keen observer, who first proved
conclusively that the difference was
purely imaginary. Now, the curious
thing Is that these experienced hunt
ers usually attributed entirely different
temperaments to these two Imaginary
species. The first kind, that with the
long front horn, they described as a
miracle Of dangerous ferocity, and the
second as comparatively mild and in
offensive; and these veterans Drum
mond is an instance) persuaded them
selves that this was true, although
they were writing in each case of iden-
tically the same animal.

Show Your Spunk.

There never was a gutter but who blamed
the world at large
who couldn't ird a lame excuse for any
sort Of charge
Whoever owned up to the truth-that he
was all to blame,
Instead of realizing that he'd simply quit
the game.
Men who achieve will never stop so long
as there's a chance.
You can't defeat EN- with a blow-with
jeer or sneering glance.
They're right at start-they're right at
heart-and fight through to the finish;
No matter what befalls them, grit nor
courage will diminish,
Stop sniveling and driveling and crawl
from out your funk,
Start in and grow a ~spine-chirk up and
show a little spunk;
Erase despair from off your face-clear
doubt out of you soul,
So long as you have health, you've wealth
you still are sound and whole.

CRYSTALS OF cELLULoiD.
Will Not Break as Easily as Glass
Used in Cheaper Time Pieces.

Celluloid watch crystals have ap-
peared in the Maiden Lane district and
are sold with the guarantee that they
will not break as easily as the ordinary
crystals made Of glass. They are
placed in some of the cheap open face
and hunting case watches.
Several objections to the innovation
are urged. Dealers say that in the thin
watches the lids are elastic to some
extent, and Il the crystals may also be
bent, as is the case when celluloid is
used, then there is likely to be inter
ference with the hands of the time
piece. Another objection is that cellu-
lOid contains traces OF acid which are
likely to rust steel parts of the watch.
A third objection is that celluloid is
iniammable.
The new crystals cost a little more
than glass.

MISCHIEF
A Surprise in Brooklyn.

An adults food that can save a
baby proves itself to be nourishing
and easily digested and good for big
and little folks. A Brooklyn man
says:
When baby was about eleven
months old he began to grow thin and
pale. This was, at first, attributed to
the heat and the fact that his teeth
were coming, but, in reality, the poor
little thing was starving, his mothers
milk not being sufficient nourishment.
"One day after he had cried bitterly
for an hour, l suggested that my wife
try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked
two ~teaspoonfuls in a saucer with a
little sugar and warm milk. This
baby ate so ravenously that she fixed
a second which he likewise finished.
ut was not many days before he
forgot all about being nursed, and has
since lived almost exclusively on
GrapeNuts. To-day the boy Is strong
and robust, and as cute a mischief
maker as a thirteen months old baby
is expected to be.
we nave put before him other
foods, but he will have none Of them,
evidently preferring to stick to that
which did him so much good-his old
friend, Grape-Nuts.
use this letter any way you wish,
for my wife and / can never praise
Grape-Nuts enough after the bright
ness it has brought to our house

food, but experience with thousands of
babies shows 1t to be among the best.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear. There Is
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness IA
caused by an lnfamed condition OF the mu.
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is indamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t ID
entirely closed, Deafness IL the result. and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca.
tarrh, which is nothing but an nfamed con-
dition OF the mucous surfaces.

Smoking Through Hole in Head.

During the South African war, says
a writer in the Strand, a Boer soldier
named Frank Brown was shot in the
forehead with a rife bullet. Strangely
enough it did not kill him, and after
the war he secured employment on
n of the transatlantic steamers.
When fully a year had passed, he COM
planned of trouble in his head, and
after a thorough examination the sur
geOn Of the ship decided that the bull
let, which had never been removed,
must be extracted. This was done,
and afterwards, for the amusement Of
his friends. the wounded soldier placed
a lighted cigaret in the hole from
which the bullet was extracted, and
drew the smoke through his nose.

Useful Spripas.

In certain favored portions Of the
globe, says a writer in the Wide World
Magazine, nature seems to have gone
out OF her way to produce phenomena
which are of distinct use to mankind.
In the vicinity of Reykjavik, Iceland,
for instance, there are some springs the
water of which is scalding hot. The
springs, however, rise close to a stream,
which is thus made warm, thereby ena
bling the Icelandic women to wash
clothes in ii very effectually and eco
nomicauy; whilst a short distance
away, where the water is cooler, a
ready made warm bath can be INDUCED
In. The springs, of course, are of vol
canic origin, and a strong smell of sui
phuretted hydrogen pervades the att
mOsphere in the neighborhood.
