Too aIkative.

{, The following story is told of the famous painter Makart: The artist was 8 very passionate chess player. but he did not like his adversary to utter a single word during the prog ress of game. A stranger who was very anxious to get on intimate terms with the famous artist thought to be able to achieve his object by means of Che royal game. After many tries he succeeded at last in getting an intro duction to Makart, and one day the latter consented to play game with him. Being we'll aware of the fact that his adversary was very much averse to any talk during the game, not word was spoken, and even the word ''check" was never spoken All the stranger dared to do was to touch his adversary's king when he put that piece in check. The game ended in Makart being mated, when the stran- ger quietly said ''checkmate" Makart rose very excitedly, threw the pieces off the board and. giving his opponent a fierce look, got off his chair, turned his back to the stranger and exclaimed ssPra tfIerp'

An unmanned Liqhtship.

There is stationed off the island of Islay, on the west coast of Scotland. at the Otter rock an interesting light ship. It is unnamed. yet it can be relied on to display the warning light to guide the mariner on this dangerous coast. It is a very ingeniously con- structed vessel and the only one of it's kind. In it's two steel tanks sufficient gas can be stored to supply the vessel for several months. Experiments have shown that the light may be depended upon to burn continuously for months at a time. The approximate duration of the light can always be predeter- mined. and there is no danger what ever of the light being extinguished by wind or spray. The light is visible at a distance of from eight to twelve miles. The lightshfp also has a bell. which is made to ring automatically by means of an ingenious device that utilizes the gas as it passes from the tanks to the lantern to work the bell clapper.-Harper's Weekly.

Curious Way of Cooling Water.

The average native woman in the in- terior of Nicaragua may appear ener- vated and listless, but her method of cooling water is strenuous indeed. She fills half gallon earthenware jar about two-thirds full The jar is made of baked clay and, not being glazed, is partially porous, so that it soon be- comes moist on the outside. By means of two leathern straps firmly attached to the neck of the jar the woman causes the same to rotate swiftly in the air. The mouth is wide open, but the centrifugal motion keeps the water from flying out. The endurance shown by the Nicaraguan women of the poor- CT class in this form of calisthenics is said to be marvellous. When, in the opinion of the operator, the water is

Say goodbye to your corns the very first time you use TIZ. You will never know you have a corn, bunion or callous, or sweaty, tired, swollen, aching feet any more. It's just won derfuI the way the pain vanishes. Rub the corn-ham1ner it with your fist if you wiSh-nO more pain after TIZ than if there had never been a blemish on your feet. Doesn't that sound good to you? Doesn't it? Then read this:
 ''The corns either of my toes were as large as the tablets you make to cure theM. Today there is no sign of corns on either foot and no sore ness. It's an up-to-date Godsend.' .''-. [. Sam. A. Hoover, Progress, N. c.

Powders and other remedies merely clog up the poTCS- gIrIZ cleans them out and keeps them clean. It works right off You will feel better tke very first time it's used.

The most common and widely used of all spices is pepper. It is native of the East Indies. but is now culti- vated in various parts of the tropical belt of this hemisphere The plant is a climber and has a smooth stem sometimes twelve feet long. The fruit is about the size of a pea and when ripe is of a bright red color. In culti- vation the plant is supported by poles. In some localities small trees are used instead of poles. forsthe best pepper is grown in a certain degree of shade.
