OF SAME ORIGIN AS COAL
Wood Believed to Be Basis of Jet, Sub stance Long Used for Various
 Ornaments.

Jet is. sort of Ignite or anthracite. often cut and polished, which has the peculiarities in weight and texture of the hardest kind of anthracite. It has been used in Britain since before hiss toric times, and was common in the bronze age, from which times have come jet beads. buttons, rings, armlets and other ornaments.
 Julius Caesar alludes to the abund- ance of jet in Britain. and jet orna- ments are found with Roman relics in them. The monks used jet for TO- sary beads at Whitby Abbey. and at Whitney, where it was found in the greatest abundance. It occurs in ir- regular masses in hard shale known as jet rock.
 Often microscopic examination dis closes coniferous wood in the compo- sition of jet It is probable that jet was developed when masses of wood drifted down river, rotted or became water logged and sank out at sea, be- coming gradually buried in deposit of fine mud which hardened eventually into shale Sometimes drops of bi- tumin are found in jet cavities which seems to confirm the suspicion of it's wood Origin.-Detroit News

Swiss "Mourninn urn.n

At the death of person in Swftzer- land the family inserts a formal. black-edge announcement in the pa pers asking for sympathy, and stating that the mourning urn" will be ex- hibited during certain hours on a spe- cial day. In front of the house where the person died there is placed little black table covered with black cloth the friends of the family drop little visiting cards, some times with a few words of sympathy on them. The urn is put on the table on the day of the funeral Only men ever go to the churchyard, and then generally follow the hearse on foot.

A Feeling of Security

You naturally feel secure when you know that the medicine you are about to take is absolutely pure and contains no harmful or habit producing drugs.
 Such medicine is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
 The same standard of purity, strength and excellence is maintained in every bottle of Swamp-Root.
 It is scientifically compounded from vegetable herbs.
 It is not a stimulant and is taken in teaspoonful doses.
 1t is not recommended for everything.
 It is natures great helper in relieving and overcoming kidney, liver and blad- der troubles.
 A sworn statement of purity is with every bottle of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
 If you need medicine, you should have the best. On sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
 However. if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer < Co.,, Binghamton, N. r., for sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

HAS EYE. ONLY FOR DEFECTS
Chronic dKnocker" Blind to Any Good Qualities Prominent In Either
 Friend or Enemy.

The knocker is a common wild an- imal you have all met. He is known by the loud noise which he makes all the time, which sounds like the strokes of a hammer on an anvil. I never knew of place which did not have at least one confirmed knocker. One is enough to go around.
 The knocker seems to be afraid of dying from shame if he should ever be caught saying something good about person. He knocks the folks he works with. If you mention a good thing about a man. he is always ready with his "Yes, but" and then he starts in with long string of defects to offset the good qualities.
 This animal has very keen eyes when he is looking for defects. but for good qualities he is stone blind. In nine cases out of ten he is envious or jealous. and when one has feeling of inferiority, it Is much easier to "run down" other people than to lift ones self up.
 Many men do 1t who do not mean to do the harm they cause, but it is habit they easily get into, and it not only does harm to other people, but if robs a man himself of the pleasure he might get out of the good things in other men.

.DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur
Darkens So Naturally
that Nobody can tell.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when II fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up q mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and be,rat.R1l,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrAc-
tive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle Of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen q
sponge or soft brush with IL and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at q time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound Is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after q few applications, It also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.-Advt.

WHERE PEDDLER is SUPREME
In Lithuania People Almost Every
where Are Dependent on the
Travelling "Merchant."

The peddler, who has almost dis
appeared entirely in American farm
ing communities. is still a very impor-
tant institution in Lithuania. His out
fit there is q veritable department
store. His customers are dependent
upon him for nearly everything they
do not raise or make upon their own
farms. There are not even any mail
order houses to encrOach upon his
wide domain.
Everything the peasant home in
Lithuania is lot able to produce must
be brought many miles. Railroads
are few. And so, through the ped
dlers, with their surprisingly varied
stock in trade, Lithuanian mothers do
their own shopping at their w door
steps. These peddlers come to the
peasants cottage with linen goods.
fancy cloth for dresses, handker-
chiefs, aprons, combs and brushes,
stationery, trinkets, hardware, house
hold utensils. sugar, salt, soap and
even shoe backing.
If cash is to be had, the peddlers
accept it readily, but they are just
as ready to barter soap for some
homemade linen, or sugar for native
needlewurk.
