NESTS OF SEAWEED.
Floating Homes For Flying Fish In the
Sargasso Sea.

Floating Homes For Flying Fish In the
sarsasso Sea.
Science is beginning to know a good
deal more than it formerly did about
that strange drowned meadow in
the Atlantic ocean southwest of the
Azores which is called the Sargasso
sea.
1t is. as is we'll understood, a vast
accumulation of kind of seaweed
which, upheld at the surface Of the
water by innumerable little air vessels
that act as floats, is continually re-
newed by the breaking up of it's fronds
and the growth of the broken parts.
Many fishes have established their
homes in it as we'll as numerous swim
ming crabs, small cuttlefish and quite
a variety of other creatures.
Most remarkable of all it's inhabit.
ants is the mouse fish, which has pee
toral fins developed in such a way as
resemble arms. By these it holds
on TO the fronds of the weed. crea-
ture of solitary habits. highly carnivo-
rous and always waiting for some
prey to come within reach. It is a
fish of very peculiar appearance, with
ever so many queer looking appen-
dages, and in color it initiates closely
the plant that affords it shelter, being
green with white spots.
The flying fishes that inhabit the
floating meadow make ball-ike nests
out of fronds of the weed as big as
two fists. Such balls are found float
ing and appear as if knit together
with elastic threads. They are filed
with. eggs. Professor Louis Agassiz
mistook them for nests of the mouse
fish. but DR.. Theodore Gill. an emf
nent authority. has proved this to have
been an error. Each one of these
nests is composed of a single frond.
which by commencing with the slen-
derest outer branchlets and peeling
them successfully off can be spread
out entire.-New York World.

Health is Worth Saving. and Some Prince
ton People Know How to Save 1t.
Many Princeton people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are respon-
sib]e for vast amount of suffering
and ill health, but there is no need to
suffer nor to remain in danger when
all diseases and aches and pains due
to weak kidneys can be quickly and
permanently cured by the use OF
Doan's Kidney Pills. Here is a
Princeton citizens recommendation.
David Whitcomb, of Princeton,
Mimi, says: 81 had attacks OF
kidney trouble and when I learned OF
Doan's Kidney Pills, I used them.
They helped me wonderfully. I know
OF other persons who have taken this
remedy and have received relief from
pain and lameness in the loins. feel
justified in advising anyone afflicted
with kidney trouble to give Doan's
Kidney Pills a trial."

Plum Puddlngs In Peril.

1t is reported from government head
quarters that the tariff on English
plum buildings may be increased 30
per cent. The present duty exacted on
these delicacies is 20 per cent. 1t will
be sad day for plum pudding devotees
when Uncle Sam puts up the tariff so
high. Some of us will be compelled to
cut our plum pudding allowance to one
or less per diem.
Which reminds one of a story that
carries a lesson. Once upon a time
group of Englishmen went far into
the interior of Australia to prospect for
gold. The men were to be utterly lost
to civilization for six months. They
ordered a plentiful supply of assorted
foods. When they reached their desti-
nation and opened the packing cases
they discovered that their goods had
gone astray and they had on hand only
large supply Of English plum pud-
dings, evidently intended for whole
sale merchant. Being British, the men
didn't worry, for the Britisher dearly
loves his plum pudding. So they be-
gan feasting on the buildings. They
cooked them in various ways. They
had plum pudding raw, plum pudding
boiled, plum pudding fricasseed, plum
pudding fried, plum pudding scram-
bled. After a few months they gave
up their task il the wilderness, went
back to civilization and gorged them
selves on plain ham, beans, potatoes
and the like. ~~-----s- ~--,--
Too much of a good thing is less than
not enough. A luxury is luxury only
because it is unusual or scarce. If dia-
monds were as common as pebbles
they wouldn't bring 2 cents a carat.
When the price Of diamonds or Of
plum buildings goes up it doesn't af-
feet most of us at all, for the simple
and satisfying reason that these are
luxuries which we do not need. So,
unless Uncle Sam does some tariff
tinkering that results in increasing the
price Of ham and eggs, butter, corned
beef hash or corn pone, most of us can
get along reasonably we'll, even though
plum buildings must pay duty of so
per cent.

PEAFoWL ETIQUETTE.

The Hens Formal Introduction Of Her
Brood to the World.
For bringing up their families pea
hens are model to every other feath-
cred fowl in existence The nest is
usually made Of quantity of dry
sticks, and when fairly set and on it
the difficulty is to find out where the
hen is. So beautifully does the ash
gray plumage assimilate with the sur
roundings that it is often possible to
tumble over the nest before recogniz-
ing it. In this nest are laid from three
to four large whitish eggs about the
size of those laid by the common do
nestle goose. 49, '.-.- ~.
When the chicks are Matched out they
are the most delightful little brown
birds imaginable. The color is a rich
deep brown, and they much resemble
young pheasants both in size and in
coloring. Many people have often
laughed at the curious etiquette notice
able in the behavior of bees toward
their queen. But the peafowl etiquette
in introducing young chicks to their
owner is at least as curious. AS soon
as the chicks are able to walk the
mother marshals them in a procession,
and, leading herself, she stalks to the
place where she and the others are
generally fed. Having formally intro
duced her brood, she takes them back
to the nest, and they are not seen any
more for some weeks. The hen will
come and be fed, but the chicks are
supposed to remain in retreat till they
are grown to the size of spring chick
ems, when they come out and join the
rest Of the fowls and learn to feed for

 ANOTHER OUTING Movement Under Way To Have Them Go in Body
 To Atlanta Friday

Montgomery, March 7.-(Special) )-Pros- poets tonight were that the two houses of the legislature would go in a body to Atlanta on Friday of this week in order to take part in the convention of the Southern Commercial Congress, which begins tomorrow. Resolution calling upon the house and senate to adjourn on that day was this afternoon presented in the house by representativ Huddles- ton of Elmore county and was referred to the committee on rules.
 A strong sentiment among the legisla- tors favors the trip, especially in view of the fact that the present session of the congress is expected to turn new mile stone in the further prosperity of the south
 Another resolution of much interest was likewise read in the house this after noon when Representative Pegram of Ma rengo county introduced an instrument calling upon the legislature to indorse Judson Harmon of Ohio as democratic candidate for President in the next race

WALKER HAS EYE ON REVENUE BILL Protest Against Exemption
 of Taxes ON BANK DEPOSITS Would Stimulate Banking But Make the Rich Richer and the Poor
 Poorer and Stop Cir
 culation
BY FRANK v. EVANS

Jasper, March 7.-(Special)-The eyes of the business men of Walker are turned tcward Montgomery-the revenue bill in- curing much interest. In fact Walker county people, ambitious for future growth and greatness, look with jealous eyes upon business Legislation. that legis- lation which affects industrial growth and development.
 One proposition of the pending bill, at least, is looked upon suspciously here and with degree of discomfort, and that is the proposition to exempt from tax ation money hoarded or kept on deposit in banks.
 The only excusable feature of that proposition seems to be that much wealth of that kind already escapes taxation by the dodges of the holders. Should such exemption be granted it Is feared that it will stop circulation of much needed money and thus paralyze the movement for industrial development.
 Deposits in savings banks yield about 1 per cent net in this section. Exempt from taxation this would equal about 6 per cent to the depositor and no worry about it. The banks would loan the money on mortgages to the owners of homes and farms at 8 per cent and these homes and farms would continue to bear all the burden of taxation. Of course this would prove wonderful stimulus to banking. It would make the rich richer and the poor poorer.
 Such exemption smacks much of bank arx,h; l. enough bank officials, directors and stockholders in the legislature to close their eyes to the iniquity of the proposi- tion, it is hoped that Governor O'Neai will, if necessary, call attention to the unjust distribution of the burden of tax ation proposed. tHN

All of the unpleasant sensations at- tendant upon eating too heartily are in stantly relieved by a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet Like sticking d pin into a rub ber balloon. The reason is simple anu easy to understand.
 When YOU take food into stomach that is tired and overtaxed the gastric juices do not form fast enough to digest it properly So the food becomes sour and at once begins to throw off gases. Your stomach becomes inflated just as surely as if you attached toy balloon to a gas jet Then the gases and foul odors issue forth and pollute your breath making you an object of nausea to your friends. Your tongue quickly becomes coated and you can taste the foulness that is within you.
 Now all this condition Is changed al- most instantly by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet. This little dgester gets busy at once-supplies all the digestive juices that were lacking-digests the food in jiffy and opens up the clogged stomach and bowels. It also sweetens and refreshes the mucous lining of the stomach and bowels and restores peace and content
 If you will give Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets chance they will not only sweeteu your stomach but also your disposition and you will never have another stom- Hach i'll.
 One grain of single ingredient in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 5000 grains of food. This saves your stomach and gives 1t the rest it need: All muscles require occasional rest I they are ever overtaxed. The stomaci is no exception to this rule.
 Try a box of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab lets and you will wonder how you ever got along without them. They are sold at 50 cents by all druggists everywhere A trial package will be sent free or request to F. A. Stuart Co.,, 1S0 Stuart Bldg, Marshall, Mich.
