All Resources Needed.

Those who are anxious that the
boundaries Of knowledge should be en-
larged ought to be most eager that the
influence of women should be In
creased, in order that every source OF
the human mind may be at once and
quickly brought into play. For you
may rely upon 1t that the time ls
approaching when ali those resources
will be needed and will be taxed even
to the utmost. We shall soon have on
our hands work far more arduous than
any we have yet accomplished; and
we shall be encountered by difficulties
the removal Of which will require
every sort of help and every variety of
power.-Buckle.

aIaav Conc In Seven Minutes.

Dissipating Jag in seven minutes
lis the record that has been established
iby the preceding plant recently estab-
lished at San Benito, in the lower Rio
Grande valley.
While a car was being cooled pre-
paratory to loading it with fruits and
vegetables, the men having charge Of
the work found an intoxicated man ly-
ing in the gutter. Thinking to play a
joke on him, they placed him in the
car. He had been lying in the sun
with the temperature playing about
him in the neighborhood Of 100 de-
grees, and the sudden change to a
temperature only few degrees above
the freezing point was something Of
a shock.
! At the end of seven minutes he was
beating on the car door clamoring to
get out.-San Antonio Light.

Latest In Hosiery and Shoes.

New ideas in hosiery and in shoes
are constantly appearing. Despite
the protests of medical men, stockings
are still cobwebby. The latest idea
appears to be the netted silken hosi-
cry, which, when drawn on the foot,
have the appearance of a fish scale.
To throw the mesh into high relief, an
understanding of very fine silk Is worn
white if the upper hose be black,
black If the net fish scale be in white.

REMEDY FOR FLEAS.

We have SO many inquireIs regard
ing methods of getting rid of these
little pests that we are always glad to
give something new to ward off their
attacks.
A prominent English physician re-
cen tly gave his colleagues in conven-
ton his method of getting rid of
them.
His remedy is simple one-nothing
more or less than the use OF stick
sulphur in the drinking water.
He says that animals drinking the
water are immune from the bites and
that fowls will not suffer from mites.
In conclusion the doctor said that
he always drank freely OF water con
tanning sulphur or took sulphur
tablet before going into places infest-
ed with insects and that he never was
bothered.
am inclined to believe his state
ment. We have used the sulphur in
our own dog kennels and the long
haired English settlers are not attack
ed even in the warmest weather.

IF YOU HAVE A FRIEND WORTH
LOVING?

If you have a friend worth loving,
Love him. Yes, and let him know
That you love him, ere life's evening
Tinge his brow with sunset glow.
Why should good words ne'er be said
OF friend till he is dead?
If you hear an air that thrills you,
Sung by any child OF song,
Praise it. Do not let the singer
Wait deserved praises long.
Why should one that thrills your heart
Lack the JOY you may impartf
IF you hear a prayer that moves you
By its humble, pleading tone,
Join it. Do not let the seeker
Bow before his God alone.
Why should not your brother share
The strength of 1.-TWO or three" in
prayer?
Ii you see the hot tears falling
From brothers. weeping eyes,
Share them. And by kindly sharing
Own your kinship in the skies.
Why should any one be glad
When a brothers. heart is sad?
1t silvery laugh goes ripping
Through the sunshine on his face,
Share it. T'is the wise man IS saying
For both grief and joy place.
Health and goodness are in mirth
In which an honest laugh has birth.
If your work is made more easy
By friendly, helping hand,
Say so. Speak out brave and truly,
Ere the darkness veil the land.
Should a brother workman dear
Falter for a word of cheer?
Scatter thus your seeds of kindness
All enriching as you go
Leave them. Trust the Harvest Givel
He will make each seed to grow.
So, until the happy end.
Your life shall never lack friend.~
Alice Cary.

HELPFUL HINTS.

three parts boric acid; mix thorough

poor taste and a desire to conceal
odors.
Keeping the body clean and pores
of the feet open by frequent bathing
will do wonders for troubles of that
kind. Clean hose or socks are nee

perspiration which the fibre has alb
sorbed will aggravate the trouble

TO CLEAN PANAMA OR OTHER
STRAW HATS.

The straw of hats is made short liv-
ed more by being thrown around and
sticking the hat pins through in any
place, than the actual use.
Before the hats are put away for

Fraser took time to look over the
book.
Don't want it." the attorney said,
mo good to me. Wouldn't give you
10 cents for it."
In a few minutes the attorney
went out on the street and the agent
ret rning to the office. informed the
stenographer. who had not been pres
ent at the previous call, that he had
brought,the book Mr. Fraser had or
dered. The agent was in a hurry
would she hand him the 81 and col
lect it from Mr.. Fraser? She would
and she did
When Mr., Fraser heard of the
transaction he was mad all over and
spent several hours trying. to locate
he fellow. Meantime a client had
been hunting him on an important
matter and found the lawyer just as
| the latter had traced Brown to his
| hotel, where he had checked out a
few moments before to leave town
The attorney yielded to the represen-
tations of his client and returned to
his office with a good-bye-four-dollar
expression on his face.
When he reached the office. Mr.
Wedekin, who IS associated with him
was there and he asked him to go tc
the railroad station and get hold Of
Brown, whom he described. Tel
him." said Mr. Fraser, that he must
see me before leaving town, He will
understand" s-
Mr.. Wedekin found the book agent
at the station. "Mr. Fraser sent me
10 tell you that you must see him
before you leave town." said Wedekin
He stated you would know what It
was about"

leave and I can't go to his office
What he wants is one of these books
Now you can just as we'll take 1t to
him. Pay me the price 81 and collect
from him" ... j.
Believing that his associate was fe-
verishly anxious to get the book, Mr.
Wedekin forked over the 81 and re-
turned to the office.
When Mr.. Fraser saw book No. 2
and another 81 vanish he almost ex.
