The New York physician who has been , offering $5,000 for an ear last Thursday night selected the man whose ear be con- sidered the most suitable for grafting. The subject is a German, and, unless he backs out or some one interferes, the doctor says that the operation of transferring his right ear to the head of the Westerner who wants it will begin on Tuesday. 3 The number of candidates was narrowed down to seven Thursday, and last Thurs- day night when the reporters got around the doctor announced that he was ready to make his final selection. The ears of the first five were either too Jarge or too small or not of the right shape. The sixth man to be examined was the one selected for the operation. He is 40 years old, married and bas one child, a boy of 4. He said that he bad kept a restaurant, but had failed about a year ago. He was told to come back at 11 o’clock Tuesday morn- ing to be prepared for the operation. One The doctor says he will he assisted by another surgeon, aud that before the operation the subject will have to sign a bill of sale for his ear, transferring ail his right, title and interest in it. Florida’s Big Orange Crop. W. R. Faller, one of the best-posted men in Florida on orange crops, states that this year’s crop will be about 1,600,000 boxes, compared to 750,000 boxes last season. This year’s crop was first estimated at 2,000,000, but with damage done by storms and red spiders it will be brought to the figures named. In 1884 the crop was 600,000 boxes, and inereased steadily until the year before the great freeze, when it was 6,000,000. That year it was reduced to 75,000 boxes. Hickory Scarce. The Supply is Being Rapidly Exhausted by Buggy and Handle Makers. The rapidly diminishing supply of hick- ory, which has recently caused alarm among manufacturers of hickory products, | was the subject under discussion at the meeting of the Hickory Handle Manufac- turers’ association recently in St. Louis, Mo. ; There were present at that meeting 6! persons, representing hickory handle manu- facturers who produce 90 per cent. of the product that supplies not only the United States, but England, Germany, Chiba, Austria, South Africa and the South Amer- ican countries. These representatives were from all over the United States, and the early part of the meeting was consumed in listening to reports regarding the supply of hickory from the different sections. These reports brought out the fact that practical- ly the entire supply north of the Ohio river has been exhausted. In this territory, it was said, the supply is confined to a few States in the South and Southeast. The association believes that if the situa- tion i¢ impressed upon the public the slaughter and waste of hickory will be stopped. There is nothing yet suggested that will take the place satisfactorily of hickory. The manufacture of buggies, which has been greatly increased within the past few years, has made great inroads on the supply. According to the state- ments made by the several representatives, though the plants have the capacity, the manufacturers have not been able to meet the demand on the market on account of inability to secure the raw producét. The market price of green sawed hickory is $30 per 1,000 feet. Manufacturers buy it, however, in any form that it can be se- cured, and various prices are paid. Dar- ing the past seven months the price of bickory products has advanced 100 per cent., and there are vague intimations that the price will go up higher during the next few months. It was positively stated, though, that a uniform raise in the price of hickory baund- les bad not been discussed, and that no such proposition was contemplated when the call for this special session was made. Millionaire’s Housekeeper Recognized as His Widow to $1,000,000 Tune. Philadelphia telegrams announce that the suit of Mary Comey, who was house- keeper for the late John Lucas, the mil- lionaire paint manufacturer, to recover a widow’s share of the estate, has been set- tled out of court. She will receive $1,- 000,000. Lucas died in 1901. The wom- ‘an demanded a dower right, or one-third of the estate. The case was taken to court, and Mary Comey presented testimony to show that Mr. Lucas had recognized her as his wife. Counsel for both sides reach- ed an agreement by which the woman se- cures virtually all she asked. Sweetness by the Ton. The Galeton Dispatch says that J. F. Biglow, of Corbett and E. E. Turner, of Gaines, two enterprising and prosperous farmers. were shipping the product of their bee farms from Galeton Monday. Mr. Big- low, from 160 swarms, shipped 5,000 pounds of honey to Philadelphia and Mr. Tarner, from 130 swarms made a shipment of 4,500 pounds. This is their fifth year in the business. The second year Mr. Tur- ner got 9,000 pounds of honey from 90 swarms, netting him about $1,300 in New York. Mottled Butter. : The Maryland experiment station, in its investigations as to the cause of mottles in butter, came to the following conclusions: 1. The uneven distribution of salt is the cause of anevenly colored butter spoken of as motted butter. 2. Washing the butter with water be- low 40 degrees does not cause mottles. It does however, make a little more working necessary to thoroughly distribute the salt. 3. The light colored streaks or portions of mottled butter are not cansed by an ex- cess of casein, but mottles are evidently caused hy some physical action of salt on the butter fat which causes it to admit more light. 4. Mottles can be prevented by work- ing the butter sufficiently to thoroughly distribute the salt. 5. Butter washed with water at 40 de- gress and under and worked immediately shows a better grain when sufficiently worked to insure its being evenly colored than with any other treatment. 6. Washing butter with water at 40 de- gress and under does not injure its firm- ness when subjected to high temperature. Soothing Cough Candy. An excellent cough candy is made of slippery elm, flaxseed and sugar. Soak a gill of whole flaxseed in a cup of hoiling water. In another cup put broken bits of slippery elm bark until it is full. Cover this also with half a pint of boiling water, and let it stand for two hours. Strain the flaxseed and slippery elm both through a thin muslin cloth and save the liquor. Add a pound and a half of granulated sug- ar to it. Boil the syrup for ten minutes. Add the juice of two lemons and boil it to a candy. Test it from time to time by dropping a little in cold water. The mo- ment it is done pour it out on papers, spread in busenit tins and let it harden. As soon as it begins to cool, before it bard- ens, crease it with a knife, so that it may be easily broken in lozenge shaped can- ies. ——When one observes small boys on almost every street corner smoking the deadly cigarette it becomes evident that the good people who secured the passage of the act prohibiting the sale of cigarettes to minors have not been as successful as they hoped to be. This is another illustra- tion of the fact that it is comparatively easy to secure the enactment of laws against evil things but extremely difficult to pro- cure their enforcement. Yet the world contains a great many excellent persons who appear to imagine that the essential thing to procure the passage of a law against the wrong and then leave it to en- force itself.

Jt gets tired easily, and what it fails to digest is wasted. Among, the signs of a weak stomach are uneasi- ness after eating, fits of nervous headache, and disagreeable belching. “I have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla at different times for stomach (roubles, and a run down condition of the system, aud have been greatly benefited by its use.
