NEARLY WEEDS WRONG TWIN

Because Miss Dolly Quinn OF Hege-
wisch, ILL.,, was one OF the very few
who could tell William McKernan and
John McKeTnan. twins. apart, she es-
capped the fate of being married to the
wrong one
When the McKernan-Qulnn wedding
party went to st. Columba's church.
in Hammond, Ind, where Father Hill
larry was TO make William McKernan
and Miss Quinn man and wife. John
McKernan went along in the capacity
OF best man. The twins as usual were
dressed alike
Father Hillary called the prospec-
tive bride and bridegroom to the al
tar for final instructions. William
McKernan became confused. John
stepped into his place. The bride to
be supposed this was a part of tho
ceremony.
When the clergyman began the wed.

She whispered:

Ancient Asbestos.

There was a winding sheet of amian-
thus in the Vatican library, soft and
pilabIe in the hand, and showing indi-
cations of ignition upon one corner
The cloth however, did not suffer
This burning is taken as showing
that some combustible fiber had been
intermingled. Marco Polo, in the
thirteenth century, reported a cloth
which the natives Of territory now
included in Russian Siberia claimed
as having been made Of salamander
skin. Marco Polo satisfied himself,
SO it seems, that he had to do with
mineral substance. In fact, he found
out something as to its manufacture.
In this same general region of coun-
try asbestos is today known to exist.
We are not to regard asbestos as a
single. definite mineral Nor are we
to understand that there is a fixed
chemical constitution. Certain forms
of hornblende and serpentine, If fb-
rous, are regarded as asbestos.--Cas-

WHITE PIMPLES ON HEAD

Ransom, Ill.-"The trouble started
On our baby when he was only about
two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an old scab
Of blood and matter His whole head
was covered for few months, then II
went to his ear, shoulders, and his
whole body. 1t seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while
on the other parts Of his body It was
more like water coming out Of the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
tion would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed, spread and Itch. Never had q
full nights sleep, restless all night.
THE sores were horrid to look at.
It lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use --, but 1t did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura Oint.
ment on thick at bed time and put
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores. Then We washed It clean
with Cuticura Soap and warm water
twice day, and he, was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Sulzber.

MASCOTS OF THE AvlATORS

to Carrying an amulet or mascot, in
the shape Of a golden swastlka draws

very common nowadays. Motorists
especially utilize such luck-brlngers.
which range from miniature aeroplane
engines to Teddy bears, and from vel
vet cats to toy figures of policemen.
Aviators have adopted the same su.
perstition, and they also confess to
variety of mascots. from brown vel
vet monkeys to a shirt The latter, It
may be explained, is always taken
with him in his aeroplane by a Ger

able height without injury Another
aviator consistently refuses to fly

OLD TIME TABLE CUSTOMS

Even at so late a period as the Res
toration in England. It was the custom
for guests to take their own knives
and forks to a banquet. Pepys rec
ords that he did this when he went to
the lord mayors feast in the Guild
hall.
In the previous reign the lord cham
berlain had found it necessary to is
sue regulations for the benefit of Of
hcers invited to dine at the royal ia
Bile. The we're required to wear clean
boots, not to be half,drunk on their
arrival not to drink more than one
goblet to every two dishes, not to
throw the bones under the table. nor
to lick their fingers.
The Stuarts undoubtedly did much
to refine English table manners, for
it was one Of the points admired in
Mary Queen OF Scots that the custom
she introduced from France made her
courts and royal banquets more ex-
quislte and gentle than those Of her
rival, Queen Elizabeth.

NEVADA TRAVELLING" STONES

Travelling stones" from the size of
a pea to six inches in diameter, are
found in Nevada. When distributed
on a floor or other level surface. with.
in two or three feet Of one another.
they Immediately begin to travel to-
wards a common center and there
lie huddled like a clutch OF eggs in a
nest A single stone removed to a
distance Of three and a half feet up
on being released, at once started
with wonderful and somewhat conf
cal celebrity to Join its fellows
These queer stones are found in
region that IS comparatively level and
little more than bare rock. Scattered
over this barren region are little ba-
sins, from a few feet to a rod or two
in diameter. and it is in the bottom
of these that the rolling stones are
found.
The cause for the strange conduct
of these stones is doubtless to be
found in the material of which they
are composed, which appears to be
loadstone, or magnetic iron ore.

FLAT FEET IN PITTSBURG

There are more hat-footed males,
or men with kidney feet, in Pittsburg.
than in any other American city, says
DR.. d. E. Sable, surgeon to the civil
service commission. More than 80
per cent. of the men there have bro
ken arches, the doctor says. About
the women's feet he will say nothing.
Asked to explain the cause, DR.. Sable
said he supposed it was because of
the hilly topography of Pittsburg, the
effort Of walking uphill, and the Jar
coming down, that breaks the arch
and makes the kidney feet Another
reason, he says, is that men do not
realize the Importance of the foot,
and do not give it enough attention.

HOBO'S CLOSE SHAVE

Had His Hat Not Blown on at Just
That Moment He Would Have
Gone to Death With His
Fellow Wanderer.

u have had some very narrow es,
capes In my life" said the reformed
hobo, but none Of them can hold a
candle to one that happened down in
Texas.
1T was the endup Of a very strenu.
Gus week which began with fire In a
lodging house In San Antonio. where
| had TO get out with less than halt
of my then very scanty wardrobe. /

fourth floor at that, and the fire lad
der was a trine short. | had TO hang
by my hands from the window sill, and
as dropped a fireman caught me be-
tween the ladder and the building and
then half carried me down 10 safety
Two days later / was one Of the
last they dug out from under the
trucks and debris OF a baggage car
and with no bones broken and fow
bruises worth mentioning The next
day [ got arrested for walking across
a railroad bridge. but they let me &c

avoid paying toll on the highway

after being released / started out
on foot until | came to a water tank
There | was hailed by another hobo
who happened TO be a big black fel
low, bigger I imagine than Jack John
son. He said he was waiting for the
10 p. m. express, was going to ride the
blind baggage and wanted. me to 90
with him for company. II was full
co miles before the next stop, he said
and l would be a fool to walk.
'It had cleared up a little from a
very heavy rain, but there were still
some very black clouds on the hori
zon and 1t looked like another storm
to come later consented to wait for
the express, and shortly before 1t ar
rived at the tank the wind began to
blow terribly. The express arrived
and the black fellow made it all right
but my hat blew off in my rush to
make the blind baggage and it was a
case of losing the hat or the train and
chose the latter.
The storm that broke loose few
minutes later was the worst | ever
saw, and it lasted for half an hour
The water tank was no protection, SO
got soaked through, and after the
storm was over l started to walk the
track. | was wet and cold and had |
to do It to keep from becoming com
pletely numbed The moon came up |
a little later in a clear sky.
After had walked about five miles
in the moonlight my foottripped over
something that gave me the horrors
1t was the negro's body. He had un
doubtedly been unable to retain his
hold and had been blown off the train
in the midst of that terrible storm. II
my hat hadn't blown off as it did when
was about to joir the negro on the
blind baggage I certainly would have
been blown to Kingdom Come, too

"a young lady after searching the
card catalogue, went to the desk and
said:
