A Curious Mineral.

Perhaps the most curious mineral

lite, otherwise known as the fairy
stone." This in an iron. aluminium
silicate found only in Virginia and
North Carolina. the reddish-brown
and brownish-black crystals occur
ring in well-defined single and dou-
BILE crosses. There is some CONNER
cial demand for the crosses as cur
los, which are worn as watch charms
or on chains in the manner of lock
ct or lavaliere-a demand perhaps
stimulated by the quaint legend
which is told of their origin; the
fairies living in the caves of the
mountains, on hearing the sad It'd
ings of the death of Christ, fashion
ed their crosses as mementos of Him.

REMEDY Is FOUND
FOR LIMBERNECK

A poultry raiser at La Belle, Mo,
has found treatment for Timber
neck" in fowls that has proved eff
fective. The cause of limberneck i,
the eating of putrid meats or other
decayed food. The maggots picked
up in this way are the real cause of
the trouble. They lodge in the
throat and crop and, if numerous
enough, will kill the bird by OBJ
structing the passages or by poison
ing the system, or both.
The treatment referred to is simp-
ly the use of turpentine, which kills
the maggots. A bit Of bread rolled
up into soft ball and two to four
drops Of turpentine are put on it.
This is then pushed down the bird
throat as far as possible, and this if
followed by more pellets of bread
without turpentine on them, given
in order to push down the first.
The symptoms of limberneck are
such that the disease is very easily
recognized. An infected bird seems
to lose all control of its neck muscles
and sometimes over its legs as well.
In very bad cases the birds will be
found squatting on the ground with
their necks and heads stretched out
before them on the ground entirely
| helpless.

NOISE IN PICTURE HOUSES.
Managers All Over the Country Are
Demanding Vocal Activities BE
Restrained During Perform
anceS.

Managers of motion picture hous-
es showing the better class of fea-
lures are a unit in demanding that
the pernicious vocal activities of GER
tain people be restrained during
the performances. Even audible
comment on the subject filmed is dis
concerning to the person VINO is try
ing to keep his or her attention con-
centrated on the action of the pho
toplay. But worse than this is the
idle, strident chatter of the un-
lstaunched speech dealing with the
fashions, dressmaking, social du-
ties and the myriad other sources of
small talk dear to some artless fem
mime souls, or the muttered under
tones of male offenders conversing
on politics or baseball or rafting a
sack of corn.
All of these topics are worthy of
discussion in fitting time and place.
But why choose a theater as a site
for holding talks warranted to
awaken homicidal impulses in the
breas.s of other citizens who are
presumably present for the purpose
of enjoying the entertainment offer
ed by the camera? Some offenders
are probably led astray by the no.
ton that having paid the price of adj
mission they are entitled to carry
on any sort of conversation they
please. But as a plain matter of
fact they are encroaching on the
rights of their neighbors to peaceful
appreciation of the screen.
In many houses patrons are re-
quested through the medium of the
screen to refrain from talking while
the pictures are being shown. Yet
this warning, though flashed into
brilliant prominence before the be-
ginning of each feature, is constant
ly disregarded OF late managers
have adopted more vigorous poll
cy by the sending of ushers TO the
members of the babling brigades
with a message to the effect that
they must comply with the rule of
the theater which demands suppress
sion of unnecessary conversation
during performances. Occasionally
the chided ones take umbrage and
make speedy exit, but more fire.
quently the warning has salutary
effect. A public admonition of this
kind is not likely to be quickly for
gotten.
