A Fact Worth Knowing

Someone has discovered that auto
lists travelling at night can avoid the
bright glare of the headlights of
approaching autos by the simple
process of tipping the windshield
backward at an angie of about 45
degrees. This causes the glare of
the oncoming lights to be reflected
upwards and allows the driver to
see his own side of the road.

Value of a Flesh Diet.

The wheat-eating Carthaginians were TO match for the pork-eating Ro. mans; the goat-eating Greeks easily overcame the herbivorous Persians. while the beef eaters of England and the sausage-fed German battalions have proved their bravery on a hun. dred stubbornly contested fields. Yet even this rule has it's exceptions, for the British army contains no better soldiers than those of the Scotch and Irish regiments, to whom meat was a
 luxury until they found it in their daily ration. So, after all, whatever the physiologists may say, a flesh diet
 may not be particularly conducive to
 ferocity of character.-Family Doctor.

To it belongs the bot tie tree of the west of Queensland Blacks eat the seeds of one of the species of the coast, and in the Phil ippines those of apparently a closely allied species are considered whole some when roasted or boiled, though eaten in large quantities.

When the fruit splits open 1t is a brilliant scarlet with an orange-tinted interior; along the parted edges are the seeds oval and black, covered with rich purple bloom. The fruit, being tough and leathery, remains on the tree a long time, forming a most eff fective display in the gloom of the jungle.--T. P.'s Weekly.

The students heard of this, and several hundreds of them marched to the of fees of the detective agency and broke all the windows. They then made a demonstration at the houae of the vice rector of the university, who had ap- proved of the scheme of monthly re- ports. The students state that they will not cease their protests until the vice-rector has resigned.

STOPPED AT THE WHISTLE
Hand-organ People obeyed Police mans Order, and AfterWard
 Led the Procession.

When the policeman at a Broad way crossing blew his whistle to hold up the traffic on the cross street for a minute or two and let the north and south streams flow it so hap happened that there was coming along the cross street, bound west, a piano organ on wheels drawn by a man and a woman.
 At the moment the policeman blew his whistle this hand organ had come just to the edge of the north and south sidewalk crossing on the east side of Broadway, and at the sound 1t held up of course, for the organ folks know and obey the traffic signals just as the drivers do.
 Then there the hand organ stood with vehicles of ali sorts banking up behind it. It seemed odd to see this hand organ standing there, heading long, halted procession of trucks and wagons.
 In a minute the policeman raised his whistle to his lips again, and in. stantly the organ folks, who had kept their eyes on him all the time just as the drivers do, tugged at the shafts of their outfit and started in rolling. They were off, with that long line of trucks and wagons, already in motion, following--New York Times.

Evidence of habit is sometimes use ful. Testimony of his habit of using due care to stop, look, and listen for approaching cars when crossing tracks has been introduced in the case of a man killed on the Crank Trunk rail- way. The New Hampshire supreme court, in considering the question, says that while it is not admissible to show general carefulness. yet "evidence of this character has been admitted to show whether the person did or did not do a particular act at the time in question upon the ground that per son is more apt to do a thing in the manner in which he was in the habit of doing it.'

Lakesiders Got Busu

E. T. Hatch of Taylor was a social caller at the Herald office Wednesday afternoon. He had just recently returned from a trip to Whiteriver and reports the road to that place in much better condition than it was in the early spring. MT. Hatch says the hustlers of Lakeside got together the other day and by using a drag and other imple- ments put the road in fine shape both ways from the town, and says that it was all gratis work. These people should be commended for their enterpris- ing spirit and citizens of other places should take the hint. A good highway makes travelling easy and benefits a country fi- nancially, too.

No Fresh Ar for Him.

No doctor would ever have made Lord Brampton-best remembered as Sir Henry Hawkins-subscribe to the new theory that it Is beneficial to sit in a draft. Few people had greater objection to fresh air than Hawkins" writes MT. J. A. Foote, K c. "At one time he had a sort of movable sentry box constructed for his use in court, in order to prevent any possibility of a draft. He once expressed his preference for suffoca- ton rather than chill on the ground that it was a slower death."-London Chronicle.

TIPS TOUCHING THE TEETH
Some Good Advice That VIII Tend to Save Many Extra Trips to
 the Dentist.

It is most unpleasant when teeth move because they are loose in the gum sockets, but if the mouth is well washed out three times a day with bicarbonate of soda dissolved in warm water the gums harden and the teeth become firm again.
 Finely-powdered charcoal is supreme for making the teeth a gleaming white, and keeping the mouth sweet. The charcoal, too, renders innocuous any decaying pieces of embedded food in the crevices.
 Teeth which from any cause-smok- ing, neglect, medicine, etc.-are in a very bad, black state should be cleaned with powdered cuttlefish, ob- tainable at chemists. This should be used three times daily until the teeth are clean, and then no more. After that, any good dentifrice.
 Few know that sage leaves are most excellent for the teeth. The leaf can be rubbed on, or chopped very fine and used with brush. The effect Is astonishing.
 A little lemon juice is another good tooth tonic, though 1t needs to be used but occasionally.
 In default of tooth powder, common salt mixed with fine soot-or either of these alone-is quite good. The soot makes the teeth wonderfully white, and the salt not only hardens the gums, but puts a glitter on the enamel of the teeth.

The Musee Carnavalet of Paris is ss seldom frequented by Americans, ye it is of vast interest. It is also knowI as the National museum, for it con tains objects pertaining to the histor, of France, and especially of the Frencl revolution. The sacredness of an tiquity clings to the building itself which was begun in 1544, and enlarged in 1860 by Mansart, the famous archi tect of Louis XIV. In 1877 it became the home of Mime. de Levigne, who lived there for IS years, and afte. whom the street is named that facei the principal entrance.

AdaptabIIItv of wIId RIrd LIfe.

One of the things that encourage the sportsman to hope that the new federal migratory bird law will resuf in an actual increase of water fowl anC other migratory game birds is the marvellous ability of wild bird life tG adapt itself to changed conditions.
 Ducks, for example, will quickly dis cover a sanctuary and flock to it witl confidence, deserting other more ia vorable feeding grounds. Where ptarmigan are strictly protected yol may walk around among them.
 On the other hand, the prairie chick en would have been exterminated long ago had it not changed its habits al conditions changed. It first deserted the stubble for the corn; then it wen for shelter to the windbreaks, anc finally to the timber. Now this prai rie bird sometimes alights in trees.

DRAGON ALWAYS A SYMBOL
In All Comparatively Modern History 1t Has Figured In Some Manner.

There has always been a good deal that is mythical about the dragon, though biologists tell us the skele- to the notion of flying serpents. Usually in literature the dragon is associated with the author of all evil, the devil. The ancient banner of the British kings bore the device of a dragon, and the leader of the others in war was termed the pendragon. Before the conversion of the Emperor Constantine, the old Labarum or standard of the Roman army bore bronze dragon and the bearer of the Roman standard, even after a cross replaced the dragon, was styled a "draconarius, or dragon bearer. Ac. cording to the teaching of the Greek Catholic church-Greece has the same national saint as Great Britain St. George is to be described as "tropaiophoros" or standard bearer Gin Creek. In old church windows and pictures St. George is commonly depicted with a standard. He would therefore bear the Latin title of dra, gon-man, or dragon-bearer, and the legend would easily spring into be ing. of his encounter with a dragon Still there is sir Bevis" and Spen ser's "laidly worm" to be reckoned with, and it might upset heraldry tc some extent if we altogether disposed of St. Georges dragon in so prosaic a manner as is here suggested.

Flour WeevII.

Sometimes weevils and so-callec bugs found by a housekeeper in her four are there because of carelessness in keeping the flour bins clean. Gen erally, however, these pests come from the mill from which the four or meal was purchased. To avoid criti- cism in this connection, millers should not only practise the greatest care in keeping the mills clean, but resort occasionally to fumigation. Hydro cyanic acid is the best agent for this purpose. since it in no way injures dry mill products of any kind, and the fact that 1t is extremely poisonous makes one very careful in handling it.
