Aunt Jane is quite absent-minded,

once of ner safe arrival, and closed
with the following postscript:

Wine dealers who are fortunate
enough to get their products into the
kings household are we'll paid for it,
but he who drinks it must have an ex-
ceptionally acute taste to discover the
name of the bother. For it is a rule
in the kings household that not a bot
tie of wine shall appear upon the ia
BILE bearing the name of the grower
or distributor.
British merchants are prone to
make immense commercial capital tut
of their sale of goods or devotion to
services to the royal household. To
be kings tailor carries a prestige
that has made men rich. To have sup
piled the queens shoes has been the
financial uplifter for many a London
tradesman. And these functionaries
have not hesitated to make advertis-
ing capital out of their connection
with the royal family
One might easily imagine the pres
tige a certain wine would attain
among the rich and titled of nations
IL the label of the maker were con-
spicuously displayed upon the kings
tables. Therefore the buffers assist
ants remove the label from every bot
tie of liquor before it enters the din
ing-room. This custom dates from
the reign of George III.

Lefthandedness a Stain?

A German philosopher, DR.. Ewalo
Sitter, has set himself with true leu
tonic thoroughness to discover the in
wardness of being lefthanded, remarks
the New York Independent. Accord
ing to the modern fashion, he begins
far back, in fact, with the monkeys,
which, he says, are completely ambi-
dextrous, there being no signs of right
handed or lefthanded individuals
among them. The examination of
tools and implements Of the stone and
bronze ages leads Doctor Sitter to be-
lieve that, in prehistoric times, per-
haps one-half of the population was
lefthanded. Modern lefthanded people
he looks at askance, as kind of re-
version to stone age manners, as rem
nants of variety of homo sapiens In
process of extinction.
The characteristics of lefthanded
people as a whole gives them, in his
eyes, an unfavorable, even a. degen-
crate aspect. and he pours ridicule on
the attempt to revert to the ambidex
terry of monkey times, which is now at
tempted in our training schools.

ORE THAT CURES RHEUMATISM
At Least, It Is Said That Mineral
Known as Carnotite Has Per-
formed Wonders.

Radium mining in the Paradox Val.
ley of Colorado has developed a very
curious by-product in the shape of an
unlooked::for cure for rheumatism.
The government bureau of mines
has recently undertaken to supervise
the working of some 81 radium mines
in that valley, which contain the most
important deposits Of radium- bearing
ore in the world. The ore is a yell
lowish mineral known as "Carnotite,"
and occurs in pockets" associated
with uranium and vanadium.
1t has been found that the men en-
gagged in working these deposits, If
they happen to sufferers from rheu-
matism, are cured of the malady. Not
only that, but their general health
seems to be benefited in a remarkable
way
This is matter of no small inn
portance. While radium itself is the
most costly thing in the world, being
worth over $2,5O0,OOO an ounce, the
ore from which it is taken is by no
means so precious that anybody of
moderate means could not afford to
buy and keep on hand a considerable
quantity of it.
1t takes a ton of "carnotite" to pro-
duce bit of radium no bigger than
the head of pin; and the cost of the
radium is due mainly to the difficulty
of the processes involved in extract
ing it.
Perhaps if the sufferer from rheu-
matism were to keep few pounds of
"carnotite" by him he would expert
ence relief. The matter, of course, is
wholly one of speculation as yet
There is no question of the fact that
radium is good for rheumatism. It
has been used very successfully in the
treatment of this distressing trouble,
the method commonly adopted being
to allow the patient to breathe the
emanations of the mysterious mineral
through a rubber tube entering the
rostrils.

ECZEMA ON ENTIRE SCALP

was troubled with eczema. It began
with sore on the top Of the scalp,
broke out as pimple and grew larger
until it was a large red spot with a
crust or scab over it. This became
larger finally covering the entire scalp
and spread to different parts Of the
body, the limbs and back and in the
ears. These sores grew larger grad
ually until some were as large as a
quarter of a dollar. They would itch
and If scratched they would bleed and
smart. The clothing would irritate
them at night when it was being re.
moved causing them to itch and smart
so l could not sleep. A watery fluid
would run from them. My scalp be-
came covered with a scale and when
the hair was raised up it would raise
this scale; the hair was coming out
terribly.

no relief and after using Cuticura

This time the cook of the Centipeda

while the crowd took breath.
