THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. WRITER'S THOUGHT CRAMP. Olatreaalnic l'rrlmla of Mrntnl Apnlhy When the llrnln Hefnapa to Work. If the Action writer ha hia delicious moments, when he tames ihe Joys which come with the excitement of creative composition and these he undoubtedly baa also he knows distressing periods of mental apathy, says the Header. II has been working away at top Speed, full of gladness in that subtle fabric which his pen weaves in the , warp and woof of paper and Ink. His head is packed with inspired ideas, like a gift box from the gods. His hopes ride high. His ambitions scrape the clouds. Then something happens. It Is not a snap, a break, a crash nothing so tangi ble. It is Just a ceasing. Abruptly, un expectedly, all his flue thoughts vanish. No longer is life a country of majestic, white-robed heights and alluring purple-toned valleys. All is flat and gray and bleak. Just about now, if the writer only knew It, is a most excellent tim to go fishing. At last, baffled, dtscouraged, heart tick, he sits with his head In Mb hands, contemplating with foolish self-pity the melancholy spectacle of himself. But, Ilk drought anil flood, war and pestilence, and all other Ills great and small. It passes. And he knows not how or when It goes. Days after he wakes p to find himself, pen in hand, hard at work again. Of its own accord, appar ently, the machine has set Itself in mo tion. . MISLAID EYEGLASSES. A Common Orrnrrfnrf In the llrnfed Seaann When People Drria LlKhtly. "Summer Is the time for mall order business in our trade," said an optician who has a large trade In the Wall street territory, relates the New York Times. "A man who is In the habit of carrying bis eyeglasses in his waistcoat pocket when It Is cool enough to wear a full suit of clothes Is more than likely to leave them around In restaurants, on hotel piazzas, or any other place he may happen to lay thfrro down when he begins to wear flannels and outing suits. A number of men won't wear coat-and-trousers suits simply because they can't get along without the waistcoat pock ets. To Jose a pair of eyeglasses or spectacles made to order from a pre scription and costing anywhere from $5 to $15 Is no trifling matter, to say nothing of having to get along with a cheap substitute for two or three days nntil we can make another pair. Op ticians keep these prescriptions In books, Just as druggists do medicinal prescrip tions. We are constantly getting or ders from customers away on their va cation to replace glasses that have been lost or broken. Sometimes they are In '3iich a hurry that they send us the num ber by telegraph." OUR FREAKISH NOTIONS. "Cmay Sortnl" n Yankee Men 'Which Glrea Londoners Something hay Alton la. That some English people believe Americans capable of any sort of freak ish notion under the guise of entertain ment Is attested by a paragraph, in a re cent Issue of an English weekly. The Triter, a woman, says an American friend tells her that "a new Yankee no lion Is a 'crazy social,' at which the idea Is that everybody and everything should look and act as insanely as might be. The costumes, the women aud the sen should be eccentricity personified, nd the food served must be arranged to natch." According to this chronicler, at a recent "orazy social" the meats were served in Jelly molds, Jam pots or just-pans; the vegetables In cake-baskets, the blanc-mange in a fire shovel, he Ice cream in a stew pan, the wine lasses were filled with mustard, the jellies trembled In a Baucepan ltd, the iream was in a pickle bottle, thesugarln the salt cellars and the salt In the sugar basins. The things which ought to have been roasted were boiled, and salt fla--ored the food which Is usually sweet. Attempts were made to eat clear soup vlth dessert forks, and Ice cream with '.-able knives. CHAMELEONS IN BATHING. lew Fml Which Summer Mrla at t lantlo City Have Made Much or. Taking chameleons In to bathe Is a new fad which Atlantic City has devel oped, says a recent report. BcoreB of girls have adopted It. The scheme was worked by a girl who vwoed a chameleon that had grown lazy. :ilHj tried various ways of arousing it row Its stupor, and at last hit upon the idea of taking it for a romp In the surf. She was rewarded with an instanta leous change In the little li.ard's de meanor. Just as soon as it heard the i11 of the first breaker its skin went hrough a whirl of color changes. And when she gave it a ducking it produced i new shade of pink verging into yel 'ow and green that she never knew it pos--tssed. Little time wasSost In making known ae discovery to others through the re port, and girls who had no chameleons Sought them right off to see the ocean's (fleet on them. "Oh, girls," cried one, as she held out Ver chameleon for Inspection, "some wa splashed Into his syes, and he looks tike a box of paint. I wonder If the dear thing's angry?" Dalilneaa from Meat Diet.

It (nmrrvm the Keiniirrpa of t Ii Farm Uy .Mnlntntntuw Fertility of the Soil. Trot. Curtlss at the recent dairy con vention lu Cedar Hupids, la., told why dairying maintains tiiu fertility of the farm. He said: "In selling fl.Ooo worth of wheat frtin an Iowa farm at present prices we sell with It about $3.10 worth of fertility. In selling $1,000 worth of corn we sell nliout $r0 worth of fertility or constituents which would cost the farmer this amount if he were obliged to buy commercial fertilizers to maintain the fertility of the farm. But wo can convert $1 .000 worth of corn Into beef, pork or mutton and sell it in that, form and not remove over $25 worth of fertility from the farm, or we can convert $l,0i0 worth of feed into but ter and not remove a single dollar's worth of fertility with it. Mutter is al most w holly pure fat or carbon, and It adds nothing to the value or productive capacity of the soil. "We probably shall never be obliged to pay out much money for commercial fertilizers In Iowa If we farm intelli gently, but we have already learned that we cannot grow wheat Indefinitely or j constantly draw upon even a bountiful store of plant food without diminished returns. The fact that this, lesson has been learned and Is coming tobetinlver j sally recognized is the main safeguard I and the strongest feature of Iowa afrrl j culture. We not only produce an aver- age of $l,000.ono worth of agricultural : products for every day of the year, but we know enough to feed over $250,00 worth of produce on the farms every day. No other state In the union approaches this amount, and there are only five other states that feed even half as much. Uy this means Iowa not only leads in agricultural products, but conserves her resources." Maritime Farmer. CALF CHOLERA REMEDY. t.lntf WntfP, Fo11mv1 by Corn MitrFlt, linn I'rYPl Kfllrnclnnn Trentment In Many CnNea. Last spring I was feeding my cows corn and my calves when first born seemed all right, but when one to three days old they began to show signs of cholera, I triad several remedies, but all failed; when, after losing five or six I made some strong lime water by putting a piece as large as your fist In a quart glass hottle and filed with good rain water (or any other clean water would do) and then after shaking well set It aside to settle. I took the calves, says the Stockman and Feeder, when first noticed sick, away from their mother a few days; took a little of her milk and put two tahlcspoonfuls of the llmo wa ter In It and fed them three times a day. After drinking it I gave each a dessert teaspoonful of cornstarch, moistened with the milk. The cornstarch Is cool and healing. This saved them. Another good remedy is laudanum. When the rest were born (some semed to be affected when born) I gave ten drops of laudanum In their milk twice a day till they were better. Two doses were generally enough, as It won't do to give too much. Thecalves should not be allowed to eat too much at a time. The sick ones should be kept from the well ones, and the laudanum away from the children. I have used lime water for hog cholera and found It very beneficial. This year we are feeding whole oats and stock food to the cows and one or two calves were affected a little with cholera. I gave one dose of laudanum as soon as noticed and let them run with mother, and they are all right now.

The proverbial Virginia hospitality Is again In evidence. That state has a new game law this year, of which one feature 13 a non-resident license exaction. As at first adopted, all non-residents other , than non-resident children of resident , landowners, were required to take out license, but the spirit of hospitality ! which Is linked with the name of Virginia recoiled from this. From a time be yond which the mind of man runneth not to the contrary, It has been a fashion 1 with Virginians to invite their friends . from other states to visit them for shoot ' lng, and It was perceived that the new law would put an end to this pleasant ' custom. A modification was thereupon , demanded and granted, says Forest and Stream. As It now stands, the non ; 'resident law expressly exempts the vis I Itor, the text reading that the non-resl-I dent guest of a resident landowner shall be allowed to hunt on the lands of his host, as though he were a resident of the state, when accompanied by the host ; or a member of his family, and pro- vided that the host receives no eomprn : satlon from the puest. This Is excellent I In so far as Virginia hospitality iscon- cerned; but we fail to appreciate the : logic which finds It reasonable to tax one sportsman who Is obliged to pay board in Virginia, while exempting him who Is so fortunate as to have friends there who may entertain him. HEROIC SELF-SACRIFICE. Conaplrnoaa Inatnnce That Came t'n- ' il.a . 1. ft lu ...... Xit- Oincer. "Speaking of heroism," said a navy of ficer at his club a few evenings ago, re ports the New York Tribune, "It Is rare that such an example is seen as that of an old associate at the naval acad emy, Hynson, who was a passed mid shipman at Vera Cruz, In 184G. It was really more than a bit of heroism; It was fortitude, passive courage, that con fronted a pecuJar danger, a self-sacri fice that was most conspicuous. "Our fleet was off the harbor on block ade duty when ono day a Spanish mer ' chant vessel managed to slip in without being discovered. Hynson conceived tho : Idea of capturing the vessel by a night at tack, and he succeeded in doing so. But as he could not take the vessel out of the harbor, for the reason that she was un der the close range of the enemy's guns and forts, Hyson set Are to the vessel. In doing so he burned both his arms so badly that he carried them In slings for several da"ys. While In this disabled 1 condition a terrific squall came up and ! played havoc with several of our little l vessels, and! the one on which Hynson was serving was capsized. Hynson and one of the other officers managed to get I hold on a floating spar, but as it was not I sufficient to keep them both afloat, Hyn son let go his hold, and In a few moments sank to his death." BREECH-LOADERS ARE OLD. , Bronae Cannon of That Blake Were In I'ae In Spain Some Cent nr lea Alio. That there is very little new under the sun has once more been proved at Tobermory bay, Mull, says a London paper, where Cept. Burns, of Glasgow, has, with the permission of the duke of Argyll, been searching for the relics of the Admiral of Florence, one of the ves sels of the Spanish Armada, known to have been blown up in 1588 in that tar away water. With the aid of an old chart the diver went down Into 12 fath oms and came across a bronze breech loading cannon four and one-half feet long, eight Inches in diameter at the breech and bearing the date 1563. The divers also discovered a pistol heavily lncrusted with lime, a sword blade and a kedge anchor. Breech loading in artillery and small arms Is popularly supposed to be an In vention of the middle of last century, but such Is by no means the case. In a Dublin gunsmith's shop at Cork Hill Is a breech-loading rifle, which was of fered to the British war office at the close of the eighteenth century and re jected, as it was considered to need too much ammunition. rnfeellnsr French Reporter. Immediately after the assassination of King Alexander of Servla In fact, on the very next day a French reporter went to the residence of the dead king's mother, Queen Natallo, and asked to Interview her. An attendant was sure that ehe could not be seen, but out of courtesy took the insistent message to the bereaved woman. In a moment the answer was brought back; "The queen pities anyone who could try to force his presence upon her at a moment such as this." The I'one'a Title.

Nothing la more curious than Its re semblance to a buffalo head, horns, eyes and nose. It Is an aquatic plant, with dissected submerged leaves and a tuft of aerial broad leaves. The nut contains a sweet edible kernel, and a species in Cashmere is a staple food. One species has been naturalized in our Concord river. These nuts are also known as water caltrops, In allusion to the spiked balls, formerly used to Impede cavalry. The imitative shape has no supposable use, except as the horns may hinder animals from swallowing It. Some seeds resemble Insects. Thus, the husk of blserrula peleclnus suggests a caterpillar or a centipede; the seed of the castor-oil plant a beetle, and, still more, a Jatropha would easily be mistaken for a beetle, showing thorax and two elytra with their lines of or namentation. A low leguminous plant of the Med iterranean region, scorplurus subvll losa, has a pod that resembles a worm or a serpent more than a scorpion's tall, which is the meaning of the generic name; but In scorplurus vermlcullata the likeness to a caterpillar is so strik ing that the pods are sometimes laid upon salads to test the nerves of guests; the latter is called the caterpillar plant POTATOES A GREAT CROP. Valne of the Tnhera Exceeila That of Any Other Slnicle Product of the Farm. The opinion generally prevails that wheat or corn In some regions one and in others the other constitute the crop of greatest value to the world. Such is not the fact. The potato leads all other staples, being produced at the rate of 4,000,000,000 bushels a year, while the wheat yield is only 2,500,000,000. Europe produces seven-eighths of th world's potatoes, but It Is little Ireland which eats most of them, averaging four pounds of potatoes a day per capita. The United States Is on record as the greatest meat-eating country In the world, 11, 000,000,000 pounds yearly being con sumed here. There are physiologists who ascribe to this her power on land and sea. Johnny Bull has the sweetest tooth among the world's children, headingthe list of sugar consumers at a yearly rate of 3,000,000,000 pounds of sugar. Of to bacco, however, the average In Belgium is 110 ounces per capita. In the United States only 43 ounces. But In the mat ter of beer the United States again takes the lead, showing a record of 30 gallons a year for each Inhabitant, distancing even Germany herself. MESSAGE ROUND THE WORLD.

Yesterday (Sunday) was observe! throughout' Notth America as liiblc Study Rally Day by The Young Mens' Christian Associations, and by their request, pastors spoke in very many of the chinches on Bible study. I; was found that last year over 47,003 men ol the City railroad and student Associations were enrolled in Bible classes. This is a tremen 'ous gam over previous years. Notwithstanding much that has been said as to the Bible losing its popularity, it is not shown to be so with the Associations. The college men alone will buy fully 40,000 copies of Bible study books through its International Committee this year. These Associations have nearly 2,000 classes in 300 Colleges and Universities. 319 of these Col lege Associations have undertaken to double the number of men enrolled in their classes. They are arranging to hold 53 Bible study institutes in 29 different States, with the help of the State and International and student secretaries. These men expect to secure Bible classes in every institu tion, both high and preparatory in North America. In one University a Bible study secretary is employed by the Association who has 290 students in 33 small group Bible classes. Strange as it may seem, the mot enthusiastic Bible students, and some of the best, are men employed in the operating force of the railroads, who study much between runs. From their number have come many men who spend much time in Bible teach ing and preaching in a manner that is effective with their colleagues. In Cleveland, Ohio, there are nearly 1,000 men meeting each week in the different shops to listen to Bible talks. But a small proportion of these are church men, and many arc foreigners. This Association has been organizing office Bible classes, one meeting in the directbrs' room of the Prudential Trust Company. Others meet at boarding housej and homes of mem bers. Several of the Associations are holding classes at midnight for the night workers at large industrr' plants. The Bible study hour in the 200 Summer Association camps, usually the first hour in the morning, is the most popular githering of the day. In many places business men come direct from business at night and spend an hour in lunch and Bible study. The Associations have en gaged many of the leading Bible students and pastors of the country, and publish text books of the highest character. In the Associations in some cities a dozen classes meet after a popular address on Sunday after noon, and after Bible study of an hour take lunch together and go from the Association building to the churches. One of the characteristic Bible training classes held by the Indian Association members at Car lisle Indian School, met at four o'clock in the morning, as one of the members said, " So that only men who are interested would come." A member delegated to call the mem bers each morning, would knock and say, " It is time to be about your Father s business. Besides the num ber of men enrolled in regular Bible classes, a number of thousand take a course in daily Bible reading. This is followed by a great many soldiers, sailors and bv railroad men.
