The pearl hunters of Borneo and the
adjacent islands have peculiar su-
perstition. When they open shells in
search of pearls they take every ninth
find, whether it be large or small, and
put 1t into a bottle. which is kept
corked with dead mans finger. The
pearls in the vial are known as seed
pearls or breeding pearls" and the
native Borneose firmly believes that
they will reproduce their kind. For
every pearl put into the vial two
grains of rice are thrown In for the
pearls to feed upon" Some whites
in Borneo believe as firmly in the su-
perstition as the natives do. and al
most every hut along the coast has its
"dead finger bottle. with from nine
to fifty seed pearls and twice that
number of rice grains carefully and
evenly slowed away among them
That no results follow does not dim
the superstition.

VECkSBUA1 MAY
GIT tNCaN2MtN
OF the United States and State Troops
as Matter Has Beer Taken Up by
Board Of Trade.
Special to The Ne1cs.

]
Jackson, Miss, July 15.-Vicksburg
may get the next encampment of
United States and State troops. The
Vicksburg board of trade took the
matter up some time ago, and it is be-
lieved if the matter is given the proper
impetus, the Mound City will be Sc
lected for the next encampment in
which the Mississippi troops will camp
with the regulars.
This would mean 10000 troops in
camp at Vicksburg, and Mayor Hays,
it is said, is working along this line
good and strong. Secretary of War
Dickinson intimated, some time ago.
that such move was possible.
I 1t is known the war department does
not like Chickamauga any too well,
but the encampment was held there
this year because of the lack of a bet.
| tCl pihIC.
The water at Chickamauga is any
thing but good. 1t is all polluted, ac.
cording to the war department, and
| if Vicksburg can show a supply of
pure water for 10000 men, that city
may get this big plum.
1t is understood a general move
ment will be started to secure the
next encampment for Vicksburg or
some other city in the state Vicks-
burg has one of the finest sites for
camp in the country. There is no
place that will compare with the Ma
! tional Park, in the opinion of soldiers
who have seen both Chickamauga
and the Vicksburg National Park.
The latter is, in their opinion, far
superior to anything in Georgia for
an encampment, and since Secretary
Dickinson is known to look upan the
matter with favor, it is believed
Vicksburg, with good supply of
pure water, will be able to land the
encampment

PROVED HIS WORDS.
Still, the Philosopher Didn't Like It
When Death Called.


When Death Called.
A certain philosopher was in the
habit of saying whenever he heard
that an old friend had passed away:
"Ah, well. death comes to us all. 1t is
no new thing 1t is what we must ex-
pect. Pass me the butter. my dear.
Yes. death comes to all. and my
friends time had come"
Now. Death overheard these philo-
sophical remarks at different times,
and one day he showed himself to the
philosopher.
Il am DEATH" said he simply.
"Go away. said the man in panic.
II am not ready for you"
Eyes, but it is one of your favorite
truisms that Death comes to all. and
am but proving your words"
go away. You are dreadfulr'
mo more dreadful than | always
am. But why have you changed so?
You have never feared the death that
has come to your friends. | never
heard you sigh when carried off your
old companions. You have always
said. 1T is the way of all flesh Shall
1 make an exception in favor of your
fiesh?'
Eyes. for l am not ready"
"But l am. Your time has come. Do
not repine. Your friends will go on
buttering their toast They will take
1t as philosophically as you have taken
every other death"
And the philosopher and Death de-
parted on a long journey together

HOW IT HAPPENED.
The Explanation Of the Automobile
Driver and a Climax.

After the victim of the accident was
carried to the sidewalk the automobile
driver turned his machine and came
back and explained how it happened
with considerable warmth.
This woman be volLoly remarked
to the policeman, was entirely to
blame. She ran around from ahead of
the street car and deliberately put her
self In my way After she had lodged
the coal cart it was too late for nae to
stop couldn't tell which way she
was going. and when / saw that she
was dazed and foolish / jammed on
the brakes and tried to pass to the
left, but of course she had to run the
same way, and the consequence was
that in endeavoring to avoid baby
carriage with twins in it and an old
man who was walking with Il crutch

wasn't going more than two miles an
hour and any woman who would
dodge around in that foolish way and
lose her head shouldn't be permitted
to 90 on the streets Without Il bunch

The policeman nodded.

HIS ONLY REGRET.
The Sorrow That Consumed Richat
When He Was Dying.

Over century ago died Xavier BIZ
chat, the famous physician and anat-
omist, author of ''LAnatomie Gen
erale." He probably dissected more
human corpses than any other man in
the worlds history. He established a
record when he opened 625 bodies dur
ing one winter.
OF his nerve tale is told When
he lay on his deathbed he called his
colleagues to him and said: Dear
friends, | am done, but what comforts
me is the fact that my case is a re-
markable one. have had unusual
symptoms for some days which have
analyzed. They have greatly sur
prised me-" The doctors sought to
reassure him. He answered that he
was under no illusion with regard to
himself. Il shall die fairly satisfied
with my life and go to the grave with
only one regret, one great sorrow"
"What is that?" he was asked. II
am distressed that after death | can
not dissect my own body. | could.
am certain. have made some beautiful
scientific discoveries" Then he sank
back, murmuring: Il must not think
about it. 1t won't bear thinking Of

Good Butter Making.

There are several reasons why far
mers get less for their butter than
the creamery does. 1 believe the old
fashioned milk pan is more to blame
for poor butter than any other one
thine. How can good butter he
made from cream that has been ex
posed to the air for from II to 80
hours, until 1T is as thick as batter
and tough enough to hold up mouse?
The less time cream is exposed to the
air the better, and the quicker it Is
oouled after ser aration the better.
Never mix cream warm from the
separator with the cold cream. Never
churn sweet cream mixed with sour,
or there will be loss from the sweet
cream. Keep IN cold water at spring
or we'll, not in the cellar. Churn
when not too sour and stop churning
when butter is the size of wheat
kernals. Drain of buttermilk and
pour in cold water, more than you
had buttermilk. wash twice In the
ehurn, and salt with about ! u ounces
Of salt to the pound. Churn at So to
90 degrees in summer and so to IS In
winter, And IL this butter does not
bring as n UGH or more money than
the creamery butter go to another
marhet. i have meyer failed to get
more than the regular price for such
huGter

Fires Cost All So. Per.

Ifone million five hludred Thousand
men should line I'D and march to some
prearranged spot every day for one
ear. aud, UPON arrival, each man
should throw one dollar into a hole
and depart, torepeat the performance
next day, it does not require much
imagination to picture the crowds
that would assemble over night to
get the pickings, and the U. 5. army
would have its hands full to check
The rioting. Immigration would ia
crease at startling rate and our
European friends would think we had
a gone stark mad.
But why imagine such a crazy
thing, you say. Well, 1t is only
another way OF calling to the atten-
tion of the reader a very deplorable
state of affairs ia this country that
the general public seems determined
to forget or ignore. The U. S. geo.
logical survey has just completed a
report which shows that the fire loss
ia this country is 81, 500, 900 per day,
excluding forest fires. This is a per
capita less Of 50 81 and the reader has
probably not realized the large
annual contribution he has been
making. You would hesitate some
tune before you Joined those 1 ,499, 999
other men who each threw dollar
day into hole, but really You would
save money by doing It,, if thereby,
you could avoid your contributions to
the National Ash Heap.
Yes, your comment at this point
that insurance remburses most losers,
Is anticipated, but you are entirely
mistaken. 1t does nothing of tn
kind. Insurance is merely q metho
Of distributing the loss of the indi-
vidual over the many. You never
heard of an insurance company pay
ing losses that did not collect prem-
iums, did you? Well, you paid some
OF those preiums. But here is tie
point. In Hutope the per capita loss
is only SO cents and The reason for
the enormous difference is In the su-
periority of building materials used,
the enforcement of wise laws and
most important Of all the attitude of
governments and individuals 10 look
ing down upon the firm or Individual
who has a Are. The U, s. Govern
ment experts say that the duty rests

stop this frightful waste and it I'M
questionably can be mplished,
So tomorrow morning on your way

will bring home this matter so
forcibly to you that when you reach

Don't Blame
Your Stomach
When Without Exertion or Cost
You Can Enjoy Meals and
Cure Dyspepsia.
A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Sent Free.


Don't blame your stomach or your
luck when your meals declare war on
your system.
When the stomach won't do it's work
1t is because 1T cannot.
When foul smelling doors come from
your stomach, when the head aches and
the sourness of mouth every morning
dreams and nightmare aSSail you, don't
give up the fight.
This is the appeal of nature, and it
should be heard.
Over-eating, late suppers, poorly
chewed food, too rich pastries and I'M
Ger-done cooking are some of the causes
of the stomach's i'll health.
When the stomach is busy, it presses
and churns all the liquid matter from
food and with it's juices dissolves into
liquid form or pulp everything which
comes into it.
If such food be poisonous it effects
the juices, attacks the stomach, goes
into the blood and weakens the entire
system.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di-
gest a full meal easily without mater
ial assistance from the stomach. They
will restock the gastric fluid with all
the elements needed. They build up the
blood, destroy sour taste, bad breath,
belching. stomach and bowel trouble
and quickly restore natural conditions.
One grain of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's will digest 5000 grains of food in
the stomach or in glass vial without
aid of the human digestive apparatus.
The method of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are the methods of Nature.
They contain every requisite for the
stomach and digestion. After a meal
one of these little tablets when it en-
tiers the stomach mingles with the
juices, attacks the food and digests il.
1t removes the ferTnented and decayed
mass, lying stagnant there and cases
the stomach at once
It is wholly a question for you to
solve. Your druggist will furnish Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets SOC the box,
or send us your name and address and
we will send you a trial package free.
