In some countries, notably in the
Russian provinces north of the Cau-
casus, the sunfioWer serves other pur-
poses besides ornamenting gardens
with its huge golden blossoms. The
seeds are used to make oil. which is
employed both in the manufacture of
soap and in cooking. The stems and
leaves are burned and the ashes used
to make potash. Last year the sun

There are four kinds of barriers OF
divisions set up by nature upon the
face of the earth-mountains forests,
deserts, rivers. The first, the noun
tains, man cannot remove, but he can
and does go through them TO save the
trouble and difficulty of going over
them. The second, the forests, he has
largely cleared away altogether. The
third, the deserts, he is beginning to
treat like the forests. The fourth, the
rivers, he is beginning to shift when it
suits bis purpose and to regulate their
flow at will.

When II Is Darkest.

By his own observations on thou
sands of nights w. F. Denning, the
English scientist, has proved that we
are scientifically correct when we say
that it is always darkest just before
dawn" He has found that before
dawn a great darkness invariably
seems TO drop down like mantle upon
the immediate surroundings. Objects
which were plainly observable during
the previous hours of the night are
blotted out, and a, nervous feeling is
sometimes induced by the dense opac-
ity Of the air

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the austachian tube. When this
tube is infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result, and unless this tube be
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give one hundred dol
lars for any case of deafness (caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

GARDEN HAS
ABUTTERFLY ORCHID
Novel Flower Bears a Striking Re-
semblance to the Living
Insect.

A butterfly" orchid Is the newest curl
osity in the floral line to be shown at the
Botanical Gardens. and Supt Hess. as
we'll as the employees Of the garden. are
proudly displaying the unique blossom.
As its name indicates, the new orchid
resembles nothing so much as butterfly.
The lower petals are glossy brown, dot
ted with yellow spots, and are exactly
the size, shape and color of the wings of
a large brown butterfly. The upper part
of the orchid bears a striking resemblance
to the head and body Of a butterfly. also
being brown, and having three slender
spikes of the same length and slender
ness Of the antennae Of the insect, the
"antennae'' being in the position they
would occupy on tho head Of living
butterfly.
The orchid was received about two
months ago from South America, and is
now in bloom for the first time. It is
the only one Of the kind in the Botanical
Gardens, though 1t is stated the orchid
is not uncommon in collections Of orchids
owned by private collectors and florists
In the United States.

VIRGINIA OYSTERS SAFE.
Few Beds Reported Germ Infected
and They Are Under Surveillance.

A recent sanitary survey made by
the Virginia health authorities Of the

of the state disclosed that less than
/ per cent of the total oyster area con-
tanned germs rendering the oysters
unfit for food. These sections. the Vir-
ginia authorities say. arc Monroe bay.
back Of Colonial Beach; small por-
ton of Urbanna creek. a tributary of
the Rappahannock river: the portion Of
Hampton roads abreast Of Newport
News and a small portion Of the James
river near the upper end Of White
shoals. oysters taken from any other
portion of Virginia waters are abso-
lutely healthful and can be eaten raw
or any other way desired.
The Virginia health authorities are
now exercising close supervision over
oyster packing houses in the state and
will see that proper sanitary precau-
lions are taken in the shucking and
ties have announced that the Virginia
fisheries navy will patrol the waters of
the infected sections and will see that
no oysters are taken from them for
food purposes.
Ag Washington draws the bulk Of its
oyster supply from the lower Potomac
beds, the action Of the Virginia authori-
ties gives assurance that the oysters
brought here from Virginia waters are
healthfui. The portion Of the Potomac
in Maryland does not come under the
patrol of the Virginia health authori-
ties and their guarantee only applies
to oysters taken from Virginia waters.
There is no reason, however, to belieye
that oysters from Maryland waters are
unhealthful

WAR INVENTIONS SWAMP
DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS.
Army and Navy Have Hard Task
Keeping Pace With American
Ingenuity.

Naval machinery for handling sugges-
lions from civilians has been literally
clogged to the breaking point since
the announcement Of Secretary Daniels
of the formation of his naval consult
ing board. So fast are the ideas flow
ing that it is difficult to take care of
them in the proper manner. The War
Department seems to face a similar
problem.
The War Department used to receive
on the average of about 200 inventions
year from civilians, who believed
they had a new idea in some death
dealing machine, but now these have
increased to about that number week,
according to estimates. with a range
and variety of subjects corresponding
to numerical product.
Inventors Grow Impatient.
It has become serious problem. 1t
is said, to handle these inventions in a
way which would give little occasion
for complaint, the impression prevail
ing evidently that on account Of Sec
new assurance exists for the favorable
Of Inventions.
Many of the communications, too. are
impatient protests against the delay In
action or remonstrances against the
failure to accept suggestions.
War Gas an Inspiration.
Some of the Inventions received by
the army relate to the protection
against the use Of gas in attacks. and
the devices are of all grades Of use
fitness and degrees of ingenuity, from
a simple cloth covering for the face to
an elaborate structure to be worn on

seems to be the periscope, consisting
