Beauty Never Dies.

Nothing of beauty dies without hav-
ing purified something, nor can aught
of beauty be lost Let US not be afraid
Of sowing it along the road. 1t may
remain there for weeks or years, but
like the diamond it cannot dissolve.
and finally there will pass some one
whom It's glitter will attract. He will
pick 1t up and go his way rejoicing.
Then why keep back a lofty. beautiful
word. for that you doubt others will
understa nd? An instant of higher good
ness was impending over you. Why
hinder its coming even though you be-
lieve not that those about you will
profit thereby? What If you are among
the men Of the valley. Is that sufficient
reason for checking the instructive
movement of your soul toward the
mountain peaks ?-Maurice Maeterlinck

Herculaneum has not been excavated
to the same extent as Pompeii is owing
to the fact that it was covered with a
much harder material than was Pom
peii: the dust predominating in Pom
peii. while the lava prevailed over Her
cuIaneum. There Is not much doubt
about the eventual opening up of both
cities. Human curiosity. together with
the demands of history and science.

How Soap Cleanses.

"A Belgian chemist who has studied
the action Of soap on various soiling
substances Of different colors has ar
rived at the conclusion that the cleans
Ing Of an object consists in process
Of substitution. There is brought
about q colloidal combination of the
soap and the soiling substance, which.
by reason of It's constitution. no longer
has the power of fixing itself by alb
sorpuon on to the solid body, with the
result that 1t Is easily carried away by
the water. Thus in washing with soap
one puts 1t in contact with ones soil
ing substances, these latter having a
greater affinity for the former than for
ones skin. Soap has even a greater
affinity for ones skin than for the sub
stances. which it proceeds to replace
and to set free to be taken up by the
water and removed.

- Much interest is being manifest
ed in the forthcoming production of
"An American Citizen" by local
amateurs, at the Auditorium Thurs
day evening, Nov. 81. The play
itself is delightfully."- refreshing and
attractive, and the players will IL
terpret the various characters with
an insight and grasp rarely noted
among amateurs.
The stage setting will add great
~ to the enjoyment of the occasion.
The second act especially will be a
vision to inger in the memory
pleasantly; the scene is that of
confetti day at a flower carnival
In Nice.
Absolutely true and faultless in
detail, it transforms the audience
at once to the Riviera, where flow
ers. music and mirth abound, and
joy and revelery reign supreme.
Myriads of softly shaded lights, tall
palms, beautiful flowers, faultlessly
attired men, radient girls, in spe-
cially designed carnival frocks COM
plete this gorgeous spectacle.
These, however, are not the only
interesting features of the play.
From the moment the curtain rises
until its final fall, the interest is
unceasing. A play that delighted
New York audiences for a whole
season is sure to be appreciated

BANKING the Fire.

Banking the fire is very simple
process. 1t is easier to bank a fire
than to bank anything else we know
of. We have not been able to bank
anything excepting a fire for several
years. Place the ashes in the dour
sitter and thus sprinkle them careful
ly over the coals-three teacupfuls
for small furnace. the kind that

leave all of them open. as you choose.
turn out the gas in the basement. lock
the kitchen door. take your dose Of
family tea. wind the clock, put out
the cat and go to bed. If these direc-
tons are followed faithfully you will
in the morning find one of two condi-
tions-the fire will be going or 1t will
be out.-Boston Globe.

She Paid the Duty.

An English traveller. leaving Alex

large cake, and received 1t with what
enthusiasm. she couln. but landed at
Venice with the cake entire. The eyes
of the dogana spied it DUTY is due
for the design on white sugar that dec
crates the top Of that cake" The trav-
eler answered that as the duty seemed
quite heavy she would prefer to sink
the cake into the waters Of the Adri-
attic. But" said the official, you can
not do that inasmuch as the design In
sugar aforesaid on the top of the cake
ts the property Of the king Of Italy"
The traveller then courageously Of
fered to consume the sugar and drown
the cake; but not SO might she escape,
nor did she.

Our Wonderful Eyes,

1s there anything SO wonderful as
the eye? No matter how cold the
weather may be. the eye never fails,
In the widest of billiards, when the
Thermometer registers many degrees
below zero. when the feet and fingers
freeze, when the throat freezes. when
even the torso. swathed. in sweaters
and chamois skin vesungs. freezes;
when the nose and ears are frost bit
ten. when the hair even crackles In the
blast-when all is lost apparently. the
eyes suffer no pain. but continue to per
form their normal functions. The peo-
pie of the most Indictment, most frig1d
regions of the extreme north bundle up
everything but their eyes. The eyes
are never frostbitten. They seem to
suffer only in a strong wind which car
ries In its current some irritating sub
stance. And yet. Notwithstanding this,
the eyes are the most sensitive of our
several organs.

Beauty of the Zebra.

The zebra is perhaps of all quadru-
peds the best made and most beaut1-
fully clad by the hand Of nature. To
the figure and graces Of the horse 1t
adds the elegance OF the stag. and the
black and white bands with which its
body Is ornamented are arranged with
such wonderful symmetry that we
might almost be disposed to imagine
that rule and compass had been en-
ployed In their formation. These al
ternate bands are narrow. parallel and
exactly separated. They extend not
only over the body, but the head, thigh
and legs and even over the ears and
TAIL They follow so exactly the con-
tour of the different forms that they
exhibit the entire figure in the most
advantageous point of view. In the
female these bands are alternately
black and white, In the male they
are black and yellow. but always Of
a lively and brilliant tint They also
rest upon a ground of short, fine and
copious hairs, whose luster considera-
bly, augments the general beauty Of the
colors.-Exchange.

A GREAT EXHIBIT.
Display of County Farm Products
at the Armory Surprises Every
one. Apples, Corn, Potatoes,
ETC., Are Unusually Fine.

The medical men of Maryland
were predominant in Cambridge and
the county on Tuesday, and had
everything their own way, but they
are simply not in 1t with the great
display of agricultural products to
be seen on exhibition at the Arm
DRY today. The farmers have again
demonstrated that we are all de-
pendent upon II EN-. Not only does
the exhibition today show this fact.
but it shows even more: namely,
that Dorchester county cannot be
beat at any stage Of the game.
There were exhibits there that
simply took the people right Oft OF
their feet; for instance. in the ap-
pie exhibition, were to be found
the finest specimens of this fruit
that are grown, apples that would
not only compare most favorably
with the products of Oregon and
Washington in appearance, but
which have them both surpassed in
flavor, possessing that full, rich
flavor which can only be found ON
the Eastern Shore of Maryland and
which seems to have reached it's
highest development in Dorchester
county.
1t is simply impossible to de-
scribe the character of the exhibits;
time and space will not permit 1T.
There were two classes of exhibits.
the first, those for prizes offered
by Pomona Grange and Mr.. Earl
W. Orem, and the second. those
of the merchants of Cambridge.
In the first class were to be
found some of the finest corn that
it is possible to find. The expert
from the Maryland Agricultural
College, who came to Cambridge
for the purpose of judging it, stat
ed to a representative of this pa
per that the exhibit was one OF the
finest he had ever seen. 1t con-

corn, yellow corn. red corn. hominy
corn and pop corn. The hominy
corn, which Is but little raised in
this section attracted a great deal
of attention, as it was, highly pol
ished and very hard; 1t Is said to
be as prolific in this section as In
the country further north, much of
It being raised in the New Eng
land States.
There were.- too, very fine ex-
hibits of wheat white and sweet
potatoes. turnips, pumpkins. sugar
sbeets. onions. peanuts, cucumbers,
radieshes. one variety-Black Span
ish4 attracting much attention; red,
green and yellow peppers. apples.
pears, celery, radishes, lettuce.ca
bage, celery, and then there were
a lot of canned goods, in which the
good housewives of the county had
simply outdone themselves. These
included peaches, apples, pears.
Strawberries, cherries, asparagus.
and also jelly and honey.
Too much cannot be said for
the fine dinner served by the ladies
of the Grange. The tables were
simply laden down with good thinga
and that those dining with them
did justice to these good things
goes without saying. Our hats
are off to the ladies of the Grange;
we were among those who partook
of their hospitality, and we feel
that words fail to do justice ade-
quately to the results of their Gull
nary efforts.
