IN CLOUD OF DRAGON FLIES
Remarkable Experience in the China
Sea Which Sailor Admits He Is
Unable to Explain.

Hurrying north from Hongkong to-
ward Shanghai, in 1858, Admiral, then
lieutenant, Fitzgerald's ship had a pc
cullar experience, which he describes
in Memories of the Sea-" The winds
were very light and battling, with a
great deal of calm, and they made lit
tie Roadway.
One afternoon when we were lying
at anchor out of sight of land, the
weather being very close and sultry.
we saw a great cloud approaching the
ship from the direction of the shore,
which was about fifty miles off. The
cloud came slowly nearer and nearer.
1t did not look like rain, and presently,
as 1t enveloped the ship, we found it
was composed Of dragon flies. No,
they were not ~locusts; they were in
sects known in England as dragon
flies, and very big ones. They evil
IDENTIFY made for the ship to get a rest
ing place for the soles of their feet;
but many missed, and fell exhausted
in the calm sea.
The masts, the yards, the rigging
and every rope in the ship were lit
orally incrusted with them. It was a
very sultry evening, and about six
O'Clock we all bathed. remember the
strange experience of diving into a sea
of dragon flies, which stuck to u
arms and shoulders, got into our hair,
and quite spoiled our swim. A light
air then came off from the land, so we
weighed anchor, and made sail to the
southwark; and at midnight, just as
the watch was changing, we we're
struck by a terrific squat, which laid
the old ship nearly on her beam ends.
We wondered whether the visitation
of dragon flies was connected in any
way with the squall. But if they were
blown so miles off the land. where
they certainly did not want to go, why
did we not get the wind for six hours
afterward?-Youth's Companion.

RosabeIIe's "Favah."

Never was there a blacker daughter
OF Africa than was Rosabelle Jackson
when, as a girl of but thirteen years,
she was taken into the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Deene, a childless couple
who purposed training Rosabelle into
a maid of all work. This they sue
eeeded in doing, and so many admir-
able traits of character were devel-
oped in Rosabelle that they became
much attached to the girl, and her af-
lection for them was pronounced. One
day when she was nearly thirty years
old she came to Mrs. Deene to ask a
"favah" of somewhat startling char
acter.
Il wants to ask jess one favah. Mis-
Deene," she said. Dis is de favah.
If l do dies befo' yo' does / want de

INCESSANT ITCHING Rash

Oneida, N. Y.-"About seventeen

SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT
Newspaper Men With Warning Armies
Would Accelerate the Course Of
History in Europe.

A conscientious news editor Of u
acquaintance is much embarrassed and
annoyed by the fact that the meager
news from the seat of wal in Europe
supplies very unsatisfactory material
for emphatic, clear-cut head lines. He
boldly couples the dearth of decisive
developments in the field with the
rigid exclusion of newspaper CORE
spondents from the immediate area of
hostilities, and cites as precedent and
authority the following a%necdote re-
lated as happening in the Office Of a
certain newspaper in Berlin: A mem
Der of the staff had been directed by
the chief to go to Dinkelsbuhl and act
as correspondent there. He objected
stoutly t the assignment on the
ground that nothing ever happened in
Dinkelsbuhl. The chief rebuked him
sharply.
Are you not aware, my young
friend" he said, that nothing rel
does happen anywhere unless there is
a newspaper man on the ground?"
The editor urgently submits that the
course of history in Europe would be
greatly accelerated and the world nota-
bly, advantaged If the ban on CORE
spondents at the front were lifted.

LEARNING THINGS
We Are All in the Apprentice Class.

When a simple change of diet brings
back health and happiness the story is
briefly told. A lady of Springfield, ILL.,,
says:
After being afflicted for years with
nervousness and heart trouble, / re-
ceived a shock four years ago that left
me in such a condition that my life
was despaired of.
Il got no relief from doctors nor
from the numberless heart and nerve
remedies | tried, because l didn't know
that coffee was daily putting me back
more than the doctors could put me
ahead.
Finally at the suggestion of a friend
l left off coffee and began the use of
Postum, and against my expectations l
gradually improved in health until for
the past 6 or 8 months l have been
entirely free from nervousness and
those terrible sinking, weakening
spells Of heart trouble.
MY troubles all came from the use
of coffee which I had drunk from
childhood and yet they disappeared
when l quit coffee and took up the use
of Postum" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Many people marvel at the effects Of
leaving off coffee and drinking Postum,
but there is nothing marvellous about
it-only common sense.
Coffee is a destroyer-Postum is a
rebuilder. That's the reason.
Look in pkgs. for the famous nttle
book, "The Road to MELVILLE"
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well boil
ed. 15c and Csc packages.
instant Postum-is a soluble pow
der. A ~teaspoonful dissolves quickly
in a cup of hot water and, with cream
and sugar, makes a delicious beverage
instantly. goo and SOC tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is
about the same.
There's a Reason for Postum.
