Prices Easier for Poor.

Pity the poor millionaires! ex-
claims "Girard" in the Philadelphia
Ledger.
For the frugal wife, five cents now
buys as big a loaf as it did two years
ago; but $1,000 doesn't buy as
big a blue foxskin coat; no, not by
half
The boiled potatoes on the modest
dinner table are rather cheaper than
they were last winter; but when the
poor millionaires are driven by ne.
cessity to buy white fox furs, hubby
advances 65 per cent more money for
them than he would have done at this
time in 1918.
Beaver, another essential to pluto
cratic happiness, has risen much more
than sugar or lamb chops. Indeed,
Uncle Sam tells US that the whole fur
family is roosting on a higher limb
than ever before
Luxuries rise and fall rapidly with
the amount of loose change in million
aire bank accounts; but so far as
prices go, the poor mans dinner pail
can scarcely tell a financial feast from
a financial famine.

Ovens Are Capacious,

Since the Dyckman farmhouse at
Broadway and Two Hundred and For
ty-second street, New York, has been
turned over to the city, visitors are
fiocking there to view this old relic
of the old Dutch days and it's immense
Dutch ovens. In restoring the house
to the form and detail of the time
when the great t-grand-daddies of the
Holland society boys used to visit Jan
Dyckman, the architect had workmen
with pickaxes break through the wall
in the basement kitchen on either side
of the fireplace, and the ovens, black
with the bakings of centuries, were
disclosed. People who live the gay
kitchenette life have little idea of the
size of Dutch oven, and just no idea
at all of how many five-cent loaves Of
bread can be crowded into one of
them. About fifty loaves may be
slowed away in the ovens. All of
which shows that the good old Dutch
did not have stingy ideas about the
appearance of the baking.

Twisting a Message.

One of the methods of communicat-
ing from one officer to another in the
trenches of the present great war Is to
give the message to one Of the pri-
Yates and tell him to pass the word
along" the line until it reaches it's des-
tination, viz, the officer at the other
end. The following story will show
how serious message can be distort-
ed on it's journey from mouth to
mouth:
Lieutenant A., in charge of one end
of the British line, told the private in
front to pass the word along" to Lieu
tenant B.: 1--WE are going to advance;
can you send us re-enforcements?
When Lieutenant B. received the
message it was like this: 1--WE are
going to a dance; can you lend US
three and fourpence Pittsburgh

HE CAUGHT A TARTAR
BOOK AGENT MADE MISTAKE IN
TAcKLING LAWYER.
Now He Knows How It Feels to Have
to Listen to a Long, Prosy Har.
ranoue Delivered Much as
Parrot Talks.

Having succeeded in gaining access
to the lawyers private office without
disclosing the object of his call, the
agent for the greatest history of the
world ever compiled started in to gain
the favorable attention of his prospec-
tive customer.
Histories make men WISE Lord
Bacon said," began the salesman,
and
81 see," interrupted the lawyer, that
you have called to invite my attention
to the desirability of adding to my IL
brary a set of someone's superlatively
marvellous history of the world, bound,
no doubt, in cloth, in sheepskin and in
full morocco.
you have told me that Bacon says
histories make men wise," he con-
tinued, "and no doubt you will tell me,
also, that Bolingbroke said History Is
philosophy teaching by examples, that
Lamartine said History teaches every
thing, even the future, that Cicero
said Not to know what has been hap
pening in former times is to continue
always a child and that Carlyle said,
History is a mighty drama enacted
upon the theater of time, with suns for
lamps and eternity for background
when you have finished quoting
these more famous gentlemen you will
no doubt begin then to give me some
of your own reasons why l should no
longer deprive myself of the liberal
education to be gained by the mere
association with such a set of books as
you have done me the honor to intro
duce.
There are several reasons why / do
not care to subscribe" the lawyer pro-
ceeded, but l scorn to reply to the
eminent authorities you have quoted
by simply giving the opinions and rea-
sons of an obscure twentieth century
New York lawyer. Instead, permit me
to remind you that Napoleon said,
What is history but fable agreed
upon?' Also that Goethe said, Sin
writes history; goodness is silent
Likewise that Voltaire wrote History
is little else than picture Of human
crimes and misfortunes.' Further
more that Lord Chesterfield said, His
tory is only confused heap of facts
And, lastly, that Horace Walpole
wrote, Anything but history, for his
tory must be false
Il thank you for your kind atten-
tion," concluded the lawyer, ''and l
trust you will encounter no difficulty
in finding your way OUT

UGH! A DOSE Of
NASTY CALOMEL
it salivates! It makes you sick
and you may lose a
days work.

You're bilious, sluggish, constipated
and believe you need vile, dangerous
calomel to start your liver and clean
your bowels.
Here's my guarantee! Ask your drug
gist for 80 cent bottle of Dodson s
Liver Tone and take spoonful tonight.
If it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you right up better than
calomel and without gripping or making
you sick l want you to go back to the
store and get your moneys
Take calomel today and tomorrow
you will feel weak and sick and nau-
seated. Don't lose days work. Take
a spoonful of harmless, vegetable Dod-
son S Liver Tone tonight and wake up
feeling great. It's perfectly harmless,
so give it to your children any time.
1t can't salivate, so let them eat any
thing afterwards.-Adv.

Mirage Frequently Seen by Travellers
Through the Red River Valley
of Minnesota.

That phenomenon known as the MI
rage has always been of interest to
travellers. Sometimes even people on
the train can get a glimpse Of such
an Illusion. In the Red River valley
Of Minnesota are occasionally to be
seen some of its effects. In guide
book issued by the United States
Geological survey Warren Upham
says: ''The mirage, typical of plains,
country or the ocean, may be seen in
the Red River valley almost any SUM-
shiny day in spring, summer or au-
tumn. This queer phenomenon makes
the high land at the sides of the valley
and the tops of the distant trees and
houses appear to be raised a little
above the horizon, with narrow strip
and astonishing effect Of mirage may
be seen from the highland on either
side of the iake-bed floor. There, in
looking across the valley from one and
one-half to two hours after sunrise on
a hot morning following cool night,
the groves and houses, villages and
grain elevators loom up to two or
three times their true height and
places ordinarily hidden by the curva-
ture of the earth are brought into
view. Oftentimes, too, these objects
are seen double, being repeated in an
inverted image close above their real
position and separated from it by a
foglike belt. In it's most perfect de-
velopment che mirage shows the up
per and topsy-turvy portion Of the
view quite as distinctly as the lower
and true portion. These appearances
are due to refraction and reflection
from layers of air Of different densi-
ty such as are often formed above a
wide expanse of level country in
warm weather"

Turkish School Children.

Turkish children recite their les
sons all together in the old-fashioned
schools, and If you could hear them.
you would think that you had gone
into Wonderland with Alice, where
things wouldn't come straight. The
little girls go to school in groups. and
with them is always an old servant
who carries all their books on what
looks for all the world like a small
clothes-tree. The boys go and come
in two long lines attended by their
teacher. They carry their own books
and wear long trousers and fezzes ex-
actly like their fathers. Some of the
tiny girls carry their own little tables
and drawing boards. In the gypsy vii

Only a Collection.

Usually the holdup mans way OF
getting the coin from the belated
citizen is to put him to sleep with a
crack on the bean. But the other
night a New York journeyman high
wayman adopted different method.
He held up a preacher in Harlem
street and with the aid of repartee
and gun made him come across with
his roll. After the preacher had dug
down in his jeans and given his money
to the highwayman he rebuked the
man for adopting that way of earning
a living. Cant help it, brother" said
the strong-arm man; Il need the coin.
am only taking up collection; you
can do the same, you know. and get
away with it twice as easy as can.
Thanks for the favor.

.Iuduiru a Man Properly.

When you esteem man why should
you survey him all wrapped and en-
veloped? He then but showeth us
those parts which are no whit his
own, and hideth those from us by
which alone his worth is to be judged.
1t is the goodness of the sword you
seek after and not the worth of the
scabbard; for which peradventure
you would not give farthing If it
want it's lining man should be
Judged by himself and not by his
compliments. What mind hath he?
Is it fair, capable and unpolluted, and
happily provided with all her neces-
sary parts? Is she rich of her own
or of others goods? Hath fortune
