Cure For a Cold.

A cure for influenza or a bad cold used by one English physician was complete rest in bed for forty-elght hours, giving the digestion rest by abstaining from all food except the juice of fresh fruit in water, taken as freely as desired. Apple juice or orange or grape juice was most commonly used. Of course the ab- solute bodily rest in bed is neces- sary. It would be very unwise to try to keep about as usual while fasting in this way. People who have tried it report excellent re- suits from this "cure." We have always found that careful dieting was necessary part of the treat ment for any cold or influenza Rural New Yorker.

When Trousers Were Barred.

The latest instances of a general enforcement of laws concerning dress occurred at the time of the French revolution, when some rul- CTS of German states forbade their subjects to wear trousers, these be- ing held to indicate revolutionary opinions. The e)ector of Hesse- Cassel, besides prohibiting the ob- hoxious garments, had the convicts employed on road sweeping dressed in trousers, so as to inspire disgust for sans-culotte fashions. No gen. eral prohibition of this kind was ls- sued in Prussia, but until 179o all Prussian officials were restricted to knee brooches for their neither gar ments. Trousers were held to be "unbecoming to the dignity and gravity of any holder of an official position n.''-London Chronicle.

BULLS THAT WIN THE RING.
These Fierce erutes Arc Tested Time
 and Aaain For Bravery.

A lurid description of bullfght concludes a recent American novel. the author of which, discussing bull. fights, said in New York the other day:
 ''The pluck of the bulls is the most impressive feature of these festivals. The bulls, up to the very last sword thrust, fight indomitably on. They face wounds and pain and death with the fierce and eager passion wherewith youth faces love.
 "Some people think that there is one certain race of bulls that inherit this incompatible bravery. Others think that the bulls are maddened just before the fight with alcohol and drugs. But these mo- tions are false. The bulls are so brave because each animal is the pick of q huge herd.
 "A herd of picked pedigree bulls at the age of two years is tested, one bull at time. This bull is overthrown by a man on horseback, and another man jabs it with a spear. If the bull fights it is mark ed o. K. If, however, it shows the least fear or if it sulks it is taken from the herd.
 "Thc bulls that have passed this two-ycar-old test are tested at four and again at five. Many at each age fail and are discarded. But few succeed. And these successful bulls are the ones that enter the bull ring the ones that for ten or twelve minutes in the blazing sunshine of Spain afford a spectacle of such in- domitablc, hopeless and pitiable bravery and then are dragged off dead by mule team, whose harness jingles gayly with innumcrable tiny bells. s."-Buffalo Express.

The Chinese Taxicab.

We have been told that the taxi cab is no new thing, being, in its general principles, thing known to the ancient Romans, but now an orientalist goes even further and assures us that mechanical carts capable of registering distances travelled, by counting and recording the revolutions of very large cart wheels, connected by cogs with oth- CT concentric or eccentric horizontal and perpendicular wheels of propor- tionate diameters, have been well known to the Chinese for seventeen or eighteen hundred years. On the top of the cart was the figure of a man holding drum, which he beat when one Ii, third of a mile, was travelled. Some carts had, in addi- tion, a figure holding a cymbal, which was struck when the drum had been beaten ten times.-Har- per's.

UGLY MEG MURRAY.
Or Walter seott's Ancestor Wooded Her Rather Than Be Hanged.

Visitors to the home of Sir Walter Scott at Abbotsford may still see on the walls of an inner room near the great novelist's study a picture which tells of a curious incident in the family history of the master of Elibank.
 A certain Sir William Scott, from whom Sir Walter was descended, was ill advised enough to plunder the estate of Sir Gordon Murray of Elibank. The marauder was seized and brought in letters to the castle of Elibank upon the Tweed. The Lady Murray, agreeably to the GUS tom of all women in ancient tales, was seated on the battlements and saw the return of her husband with his prisoner. She inquired what he meant to do with the young knight of Harden, as Sir William Scott was generally known.
 "Hang the robber, assuredly," was the answer of Sir Gideon.
 "What?" answered the lady. "Hang the handsome young knight of Harden when l have three ill favored daughters unmarried! No, no, Sir Gideon; we'll force him to marry our Meg"
 Now, tradition says that Meg Murray was the ugliest woman in the four counties and that she was called, in the homely dialect of the time, "Meikle Mouthed Meg." Sir Gideon, like a good husband and tender father, entered into his wife's sentiments and gave Sir Will liam the alternative of becoming his son-in-law or decorating with his body the 'Fkindly'' gallows of Elibank.
 The girl was so ugly that Sir William, the handsomest man of his time, positively refused the honor of her hand. Three days were al- lowed him to make up his mind, and it was not until he found one end of rope made fast to his neck and the other knotted to sturdy oak bough that his resolution gave way and he preferred an ugly wife.

Too Lonq Minded.

The inhabitants of the Canary isles, finding themselves oppressed by famine, sent to the governor of Galicia one of their head men as an ambassador. They advised him not to lose himself in long winded talk. He promised and kept his word. He took with him a large number of sacks, and, arriving at the town where the governor was on the cir cult, he opened one of them before him, saying only these words: 'lt is empty. Fill it."
 The governor ordered this sack and the rest to be filled with meal, but he said to the speaker: "4 ou had no need to tell us that the sack was empty nor that it was necessary to fill it. We should have readily guessed that. Another time be briefer in your talk"

 'Tired of you, darling?" said the latter. "Not the least bit in the world. But what made you think l could be ?"
 ''I thought, perhaps,'' said Miss Innocence, "that you might be tired of me, because Pm so very tired of you."

Jail seems to be good place in which to write books. Literary men surpass themselves there. John Bunyan wrote ''Pilgrim's Progress in jail. Cervantes wrote "Don Quixote'' in prison. Defoe laid the plans for "Robinson Crusoe" during a term of confinement imposed on him for the writing of pamphlet called "The Shortest"Way With the Dissenters." Leigh Hunt wrote "Rimini'' in jail.

John Henry Mears, special com
left New York July I'd on a trip
around the world, arrived in New
York again on the night of Wednes-
day, Aug. 6, with a record that beats
by 3 days, % hours, minutes and
81 seconds the best previous time for
such a journey. At exactly IS min
10 o'clock he crossed the finish line
in front of the Sun office, from which
ne made his getaway at 1913
o'clock on the morning of July I'd.
rhe former record, held by Andre
Jaeger-Schmidt of the Paris Excel
sior, was 80 days, 19 hours, AZ min
time was 35 days, 81 hours, 35 min
utes and As of second He fell be-
hind his schedule by four-ffths of
second. This time was lost in get
ting through the crowd of friends
and admirers that surrounded him as
he left the Grand Central terminal.
Mears' most critical connection at
st. Petersburg, with the Transsiber-
ian Express was made safely. Fears
had been entertained lest Mears
might miss this connection through
trouble with the authorities at the
Russian border, but his fame had
preceded him and the objections to
his camera which were anticipated
were not raised He left ST. Peters
burg ut 2:55 o'clock Saturday after
noon and until 1929 o'clock Monday
evening. July 21st, he was riding in
the same train on his way to Cladi-
vostok. An hour after he reached
that port the eastern terminus of the
Transsiberian railroad, he left by
boat from Tsuruga His schedule call
ed for him to be in Yokohama at
S:25 a. M, on July cath and to sail
thence for Victoria at D. M, of the
same day, this being his most crucial
remaining connection. He reached
Victoria at a. M, OH August 2d and
Seattle at 1;45 o'clock that after
noon. He reached Chicago on Au
gust 5th.
There have been some remarkable
developments since Nellie Bly, raced
Miss Elizabeth Bisland a quarter of

of these developments so far as
