THE EVOLUTION OF KHAKI!
Discovery of the Proper Dye
Result of an Accident.

From the Scientific American.
a 'ncky accident led to the
%inYcntlon of khaki, that olive
colOred cloth that is worn by
>oldiers.
For years the British troops in
India wore a cotton cloth of a
greeniSh brown, but it always
faded when washed with soap.
While discussing this defect
with some British officers a bus
mess man from England care
leSsIy observed that the manu-
tacturer first to discover the
means whereby a cotton drill
could be made that would not
fade would certainly make his
fortune. One of the officers, a
young man, took the hint. When
he got home he employed a
skilful dyer, and the two began
a systematic search for an olive
dye that when used on cotton
cloth would not yield to soap or
They spent years in ex-
periments along this line but to
no avail. The thing seemed
hopeless.
One day, however, they found
among numerous scraps of dyed
cloth one that retained its color
under the most severe tests.
The puzzling part of it all was
that this scrap had been derived
from a piece of cloth that had
been derived from a piece of
cloth that had been subjected to
the same processes. For a long
time the experimenters tried to
so've this riddle. The one bit
of cloth of khaki mentioned was
the only piece that kept its color
against all attacks.
FINALLY by the merest chance
they hit upon the secret. The
dye in which this scrap had been
dipped had remained for a time

made the experiment with
pieces; the dye held, and
their fortunes were made.

WHY FINE MUSIC.

Every one considers folk songs to
be of a fine kind of music. Even
the greatest musicians, like Bach,
Beethoven and Chopin, have greatly
admired them because they are so
simple and touching and sincere. OF
course some are much more beauti-
full than others, yet all of them have
qualities that make them last. Folk
songs are the finest kind of music
boys and girls to sing, because
are SO simple and yet good mu-
sic. 1t is best to learn first the sim
forms and in hat way to lay
foundation of sound musical
taste.-St. Nicholas.

When you suffer from any form of
Indigestion it is always we'll to take
something for the liver, as usually the
trouble lies there. If you are bilious,
have a bloated feeling after eating, if
you belch, if your skin is yellowish
you may be sure it is liver trouble.
What you need is something to stir
up the liver, to arouse the gastric
juices so that they will aid in the di-
g%estion of your food. A very good
remedy for this, and n highly rec
commended by those who have used
it, is DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin,
which you can obtain of any druggist
at fifty cents or one dollar bottle.
But if you have any doubt about its
merits, and would prefer to try it
first, send your address to DR.. Cald-
well and he will promptly send you a
free sample bottle.

OF this remarkable cure for stomach
liver and bowel troubles through a
free sample. Mrs. Frank Lilly OF
Plainview, ILL.,, sent for one and il
cured her and she is open in saying
that she will never take pills or strong
cathartics again, as Syrup Pepsin acts
so mildly. Mr.. w. L. Bryant, the
Postmaster at Sardis, Tenn, says he
will never be without it again. No
sick person can afford to ignore a
remedy so highly endorsed as this.
1t is good for all the family from
infancy to old age, because it is mild,
free from gripping and yet promptly
effective. Furthermore, results are
absolutely guaranteed or money will

off each woman in this city," said
a London clergyman, quoted in the
Weekend, "who cuddles and cares
for a little lapdog would take one
child and give it the same care and
love, think how many little lives
would be made happy" He went
on to tell Of a woman who had dogs
as attendants at her wedding. Many
women, he said, have maids to at
tend their pets. And plenty Of these
.dog-crazed females call their dogs
their babies and themselves the dogs
mother. DR.. Reisner says he thinks
there is no harm in human beings
being fond Of animals, but the harm
lies in the whole affection being CEN
tered or the animal. We rise or
sink, says this divine, to the level
Of our love. So the woman who
dogs or cats is exactly on a
level with these creatures.

Our Washington Letter.
By Tavenner.


That reactionary republicans
in the Senate are lying in waite
for the farmers free list bill
and other progressive legislation
passed by the Democratic House,
is becoming more evident every
day. The motive is twO-fold, to
protect the profits of the tar
iff trusts, and to prevent, if
possible, the Democrats from
carrying out promises made to
the people in the last campaign.
The group of Senate Tories
Is still able to exert a tremen-
dous Influence upon legislation.
Having packed the important
committees with men who take
the corporation attitude toward
the particular legislation to come
before those committees, the
reactionaries are in a position
to continue serving special priv
ilege by obstructing, and per-
haps preventing, the passage of
legislation desired by the peo-
pie.
Among those whom the pub
lie may safely rely upon to OPP
pose most Of the progressive
House measures are Gallinger.
Smoot, Lorimer, Guggcnheim.
Stephenson, Lodge, Oliver, War
rem, Perkins and a dozen others,
who will at all times have
the hearty cooperation of Vice
President Sherman.
Back of this group of reaction
aries are arrayed the tariff trusts
the railroads, Wall street, Stan
dard Oil and the balance of the
organized wealth of the country.
The Democrats and Progressive
Republicans are pitted against
this combination. The two
forces will, when necessary, COM
bne to prevent the passage of a
bad bill, but they will be help
less at times to prevent the
Tories from obstructing the pas
sage of Democratic legislation
such as the free list bill.
About the only thing the
average citizen can do is to keep
tab on the votes of his individual
representative in both House
and Senate, noting particularly
whether they vote for or against
measures desired by the people.
