Professor George W. Stevens. who
holds the chair OF biology in the North
western Normal school at Alva. Okla.
and regards the maidstone theory as
ignorant charatanism, has carefully
investigated the structure and history
Of number of the more celebrated
madstones in oklahoma. In writing
lately upon this subject he said:

as adhering is concerned,a piece of cork

think it was acting properly would be
satisfactory. The one and only argu-
ment for using Il maidstone is that per
SONS who believe in them get relief

horses and men. 1t does not occur III
any animal unless the animal is eX-
posed to the germs carried by some
other animal. That the disease Is nat
ural to some animals is a mistake
There is belief among the cattlemen
of the plains that the small species of
skunk so common about the prairie
dog towns will communicate rabies by
its bite. This is not true unless the
skunk has caught the disease from
some other animal. There is no more

When it is known that the germs

understand why Il person bitten by a
really rabid animal will not contract
the disease if bitten through clothes
or a glove. Under such circumstances
the saliva containing the germs Is
wiped from the animals teeth, and the
clean teeth will not communicate the
disease. But if any person so bitten
goes to q maidstone it is easy to see
how he will explain his escape from
rabies.
Madstones should be classed with
the buckeye. which was once carried

saw it up into regulation lengths and
widths impracticable.
The saw which makes this possible
is an ordinary circular saw fitted with
specially constructed teeth, these be-
ing fitted to the inner part of it's reg
ular teeth. The teeth are about one
and half inches long, with special
groove on the outer part and special
catch groove inside, so as to fit on to
the circular saw teeth. The cutting
end is fiat and sharp and is claimed to
cut through iron, whether it be nails,
spikes or bolts, as if it were wood.
The breaking of one tooth, should this
happen, only necessitates minutes
delay while another tooth is being put
in its place.

A PREFACE OF MARK TWAIN
Late HumorIst Says Customers Need
Not Expect to Find Hardware
In q Candy Store.

There is a characteristic bit of the
old-time Mark Twain in the volume,
"Mark Twain's Speeches." which
the Harpers have published. The
preface, scarcely half page long,
was written by Mark Twain himself
and is a confidential note to the
reader:
"If | were to sell the reader a
barrel Of molasses, and he, instead
OF sweetening his substantial dinner
with the same at judicious intervals,
should eat the entire barrel at one
sitting, and then abuse me for ma
king him sick, / would say that he
deserved to be made sick for not
knowing any better how to utilize
the blessings this world affords.
"And if | sell to the reader this
volume of nonsense, and he, instead
of seasoning his graver reading with
chapter of it now and then, when
his mind demands such relaxation,
unwisely overdoses himself with sew
eral chapters of it at single sitting,
he will deserve to be nauseated, and
he will have nobody to blame but
himself.
There is no more sin in publish
ing an entire volume Of nonsense
than there is in keeping a candy
store with no hardware in it. 1t lies
wholly with thN customer whether he
will derive from them the benefits
which they will afford him if he uses
their possibilities judiciously."

GIRL WITH A SLENDER WAIST
Can Wear a Flower Glrdls But Her
Stouter Sister Should Shun
This Adjournment

The girl with the slender waist
should make herself flower girdle.
These are attractive on the slim
young girl, but let her stouter sister
beware
Choose soft satin or messaline rib
bon, four inches wide, and cut of
enough to make a soft crush belt,
If you wish it to droop slightly in
front, cut it longer.
Make the rest of ribbon into q
huge many-looped resette like a full
blown rose, as large as a giant
chrysanthemum. The smaller flow
ers are six inches in diameter, the
others eight inches.
Make the loop 212 and three inch
es long, and make for the smaller
ones 16 to a flower, 20 for the
larger. There are also two ends, one
to the bottom and front and the
other quite short at back.
The loops are tied in double tiers
on each side of the center, which is
tightly tied with cross piece. They
are then turned back and curled to
resemble flower petals and made into
round shape.
A bunch Of yellow stamens, such
as are used in millinery, is tied
through the central piece, standing
out in both directions. A few sprays
of green leaves are added at the
back to peep from beneath the rib
bon.

DRINKS LIKED IN THE EAST
Ardent Spirits Evolved From Various
Plants All Have a Following Of
\ Their Own.

Arrack is an ardent spirit pro-
duced from toddy, the fermented
juice of the coco and other palms,
from rice, or from jaggery, coarse,
dark colored sugar obtained from
the sap of the jaggery palm. 1t is
made all over the Malay archipela-
go, varies greatly in strength, tastes
like sour beer and is distinctly
heady. 1t is the usual drink of
coolies.
Sake is the national beverage Of
Japan. 1t has a peculiar favor, not
comparable to any European drink,
is made from fermented rice by an
intricate process in winter time and
contains from II to IA per cent. al
cohol. 1t is a necessary constituent
Of every ceremonial Japanese din
ner, is served with much formality
from squat, earless sake cups con-
tanning approximately about two
ounces. To the European palate it
tastes sour at first, but preference
for it is readily acquired. Curiously
enough, it has more powerful eff
feet on the japanese than ON Eu-
ropeans. A stronger variety, shochu,
contains from 26 to 80 per cent. of
alcohol. Another form, mirin, is
more or less liquor.
The Chinese have two alcoholic
drinks-samshu and hocsh1. Sam
shu is simply another name for ar
rack, but hocshu is much more
aristocratic drink. We cannot de-
scribe it better than in the words Of
that inimitable old buccaneer,
Dampier; '0This is a strong liquor,
made of wheat, as / have been told.

Of beer made from wheat malt) and
tastes very much like it and is very

stores of jars of it home with then"
1t is put up in small squat white
jars, sealed with wooden plug, COW
cred with thick mass of prepared
clay, extending half way down the
neck. Connoisseurs are very care
full to examine this plug, as the
slightest crack allows the liquor to
become sour.

LIFE IN COLONIAL VIRGINIA
Where Social Distinctions Were as
Rlsldly Defined as Anywhere in
the World.

In no part of the world were So
cial distinctions more rigidly de-
fined than in colonial Virginia. The
founders of that colony stepped from
the brilliant court of Elizabeth into
the forests of Virginia. The lord
proprietor transported to his estate a
little army Of gentlemen and In
dented servants, and afterward came
the negro slave. Each formed a
class apart from the others, and al
most at once there was created a
quasi-system Of aristocracy. The
proprietor obligated himself to pro-
tect his tenants from the Indians ;
they in turn agreed to follow him to
hattle-precisely the system inaug-
urated by William the Conqueror for
the military defense Of his realm.
His environment naturally bred GER
tain habits of command, fostered a
capacity for directing the efforts OF
Others, and imposed a sense of re-
sponsibility upon the planter for the
lives that were in his keeping. Above
all else, the planter jealousy guard
ed his rights as an English freeman.
When liberty languished in Eng
land, the Virginian sturdily resist
ed every aggression of royal tyrants.
One husband, one wife, one home,
one king, one God-this was the
planters creed. But he reserved the
right to renounce a monarch who
violated the ancient compact between
king and people. No other people,
numerically as unimportant as that
group of Virginian settlers, has
given to humanity 30 many states
men, soldiers, orators, patriots and
philosophers. --Everybody's Maya
zine.
