Origin of "Cad."
"Cad," it Is pointed out by a writer
a a word furnishing "a pathetic in
stance of verbal degeneration." Ho
t&ys: "Its grandfather 'cadet' and its
ather 'caddie' are still alive in the
anguago, though the relationship la
recognized by few. 'Cadet,' signifying
y derivation from the Latin a 'little
toad,' or 'little chief," was a eufllcient
y honorable word for the youngvr son
if a noble family, and acquired its
modern army sente from the fact that
Jie army was often the destiny of
younger sons. Hut It also begat
'cadie' or 'caddie,' a junior or sulordi

rsslstant or the familiar golf caddie.
Then 'caddie' or 'cad' came to mean an
odd Jobman, and from calling the
men who hung about to pick up Jobs
by this name, Oxford undergraduates
presently applied It to 'town In gen
eral, as contrasted with 'gown.' As
no compliment was thereby intended,
its final degradation Is obvious
Roses That Change Color.

SINGING MICE IN LONDON.
Strange Melody Similar to That of
Canaries,
A resident of Ixjndon writes as fol
lows about singing mice: "We had
never heard of their existence until
a fortnight ago. when we arrived from
the continent and went into lodgings
in an old house Just off Oxford circus.
The first night we were awakened by
loud singing, as of a number of birds,
and our first Impression was that
some one kept nightingales In cages.
The next morning the Hndlady In
formed us they were singing mice we
had heard, and sho had read of thorn

Disposing of Seized Tobacco.
English customs officers for years
I ers' luggage for contraband tobacco,
j The early practice was to bury it when
confiscated. This penseless waste was
I suspended for a time by the happy
Idea of distributing the tobacco am:ng

and next the contraband was smoked
in the "queen's pipe," a huge recep

the authorities, and they took to re-

mat luxury seems to have been cut
off once more, although the criminal
lunatics still enjoy their pipes and

this caused an outcry from the tobacco
trade.
Bedroom Suite In Solid Silver.
One's thoughts turn to the Arabian
Nights when mention is made of a
bedroom suite In solid silver, but such
Is the character of an order Just
placed at Fheffield. The name of the
customer Is so far secret, and the
only information which can be obtain
ed is that the Instructions have come
from the Far East, and that the ques
tion of price is only a minor consider
ation. The designs are of oriental
character, and of & most elaborate de
scription. The suite, which Is in solid
silver throughout, Includes a bedstead,
a cabinet, a dressing table, a dozen
chairs, three foot baths, and three hot
water cans. The bedstead is of the
most ornate character. Each of the
four pillars will be surmounted by
gracefully modelled female figures
nearly three feet in height. The
moulding of the room and other deco
rations will also be of sterling silver.
London Tit-iUts.
A Touching Tribute.
In a tiny country village In New
England a woman died recently and
her relatives, friends and neighbors
decided that a woman who had been
so popular In life deserved something
out. of the ordinary In the way of a
funeral.
The village did not boast of a band,
but It had a drum corps, which was
hired to do honor to the occasion.
Solemnly it played on the way to the
ceniotery, but on the return It was
asked to play something livelier as ft
tort of quickstep home.
Hut the drum corps had made a
specialty of serious music and knew
only one lively air. However, It was
perfectly willing to play the only
cheerful bit of music it knew, and the
funeral procession went cheerily home
to the strains of "The Girl I Left Be
hind Me."
Long Live of Birds.
Why do birds live so much longer
than mammals, which are often a
hundred times their size? Possibly,
among other things, because they have
beaks instead of teeth. All carnivorous
beasts become weak and liable to star
ration as their teeth drop out or break.
Neither are the herbivorous animals
In much better case. Old horses
would probably die of starvation if
wild, for their tepth would fall them;
Indeed, in some stony countries old
horses have to bo killed because t-elr
teeth are worn away by cropping grass
close to the rock. Rodents constantly
die from Injuries to teeth. But a
bird's beak neither wears out nor
drops off, and as It constantly swal
lows fresh grit to aid in grinding food
in the gizzard that needs no repairing
either.

THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG,
How They Can Discover the
Work of Criminals.
DEEP STUDY REQUIRED
Knowledge of Handwriting Essential
to Anyone Who Would Make De
tection of Forgery a Business.
Minute Details Tell Tales.
"I am not an expert In chlrography,
but have at h.-ast made enough of u
study of handwriting to tell why It Is
often easy to detect tho forgery of a
name, though wen the man whose
name has eeti forged may declare
the handwriting a perfect replica of
his own," Air. Arnold 'Keating says:
"Of course, you know everybody
knows, for that matter that a man or
woman never writes his name twice
exactly in tho same way. There Is
always a slight difference, and where
two signatures of the same name ap
pear Identically alike it is safe to
assume that one or both Is a forg'-ry.
But. suppose the signal uro has b-eii
forged but once, purpose the uandwrit
ins of which it Is an exact copy has
b"-n destroyed or Is not obtainable,
of what avail Is the nimMiiv.
method then? Tho exact comparison
iw.iiioi no employed, but other almost
juiaiume comparisons are still avail
able. "When a child Is taught how to
write, at first Its penmanUiip Is severe
ly stiff and cramped; then It becomes
very much like that In the copy book,
but after this Is discarded the child's
character begins to creep Into its
handwriting. There are little idiosyn
crasies apparent that are not to be
found in the chlrography of other
children, and this manifestation of
character continues to change it with
development until about the age of
twenty-five, when a person's character
Is fixed, and the handwriting from that
time on continues about the same.
The forger's copy of the signature or
writing will nppear to be exactly like
that of the man, but when examined
under a powerful microscope the tiny
evidences of character that appear In
every loop and line will be found to
be largely missing, for the same char
acter Is not behind the pen. It is In
the minute details that the forgery Is
discovered.
"Then, again, a man's mental con
dition will Impress Itself upon his
writing. If he is nervous, bubbling
over with joy or depressed, tho fact
will be apparent to the expert in writ
ing. If the alleged handwriting doesn't
show traces of the mental condition
the man was really In at the time he
was supposed to have written or
signed a cot-tain letter, the signature
or the writing is a forgery. These are
some of the ways In which an expert
detects even the most successful for
ery." St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Cobra Hunting.
, Tales of tigor shooting in India are
common enough, but one does not hear
much about king cobra hunting. A.
Mervyn Smith tolls how, accompanied
by two natives, he went to a spot
where a pair of king cobras were
known to be. On arrival at the place
he was made to get under a basket,
the meshes of which were too small
for a king cobra to put its head
through. WJjile he was beneath this
basket one of the snakes came out
and was shot with arrows by natives.
The other cobra then appeared and en
deavored to overturn the coop. De
scribing the incident, the writer says:
"The terror of that moment I cannot
express. What if it should overturn
the basket! The strength of thirteen
feet of muscle must be enormous, and
if used in. the right direction would
soon overcome my pull at the cord.
What would then happen? Certain
death for me, I felt sure. Again the
whiz of an arrow and I saw a gaping
wound along the neck of the fierce
brute as it quitted its hold to look for
this new foe. Fixing my knee on tho
cord, I now placed the muzzle of my
gun Ju.t through one of the square
openings in the basket, and aiming at
the hood, fired both barrels In rapid
succession, and had the satisfaction of
seeing the horrid brute fling up the
leaves and dust in its death throes."
The Beds of Royalty.
Though the brxls of the royal per
sonages of England were elaborately
carved and hung with rich curtains,
even so late as the Tudor period it Is
recorded that King Henry VIII.'s bed
contained only straw beneath all Its
finery. A curious order exists a to
precautions to be taken against the
possibility of Intended mischief to the
royal person In the making of the
bed, for the usher was to search the
straw through with a dagger, "that
there be none untruth therein, and to
ti'mble over on the down bed for the
bettor search thereof." The bed of
Henry VIII. was nearly eleven feet
square and of even more generous di
mensions is th9 great bed to w' Ich
Shakespeare refers In a well-known
passage in "Twelfth Night," which was
twelve feet square. This "groat bed
of Ware" has been a marvel for cen
turies. Cattle That Never Drink.
There are said to be hundreds of
horses and thousands of cattle in the
(Hawaiian Islands which never take a
Idrlnk of water. On all the Islands the
upper altitudes of the mountains are
given up to cattle ranges. Except pos
sibly two or three months in the rainy
season there are no streams or pools
of water in any part where the cattle
roam, but everywhere there grows a
recumbent, jointed grass known by
thi native name of "maninla." This
is both food and drink.
' ANGRY AROANUMirtS-
Oppose New Rates Deipilo tho Firm Stand
of Their Officers.
New York newspapers say tli.it
plans are being perfected to have a
great mass meeting to take place in
that city the latter part of this week
or early next week to emphasize the
protest of many members of the
Royal Arcanum, as recently stated
in these columns asiinst the- new
rates adopted by the Supreme
Council at Atlantic City in May.
Although officers of the organiza
tion assert that the agitation will
blow over, the opposition appears
to be growing.
In the "Royal Arcanum Bullet
in," the official organ of the organi
zation, which has just appeared,
members arc told that in no circum
stances will there be any t evocation
or even modification of the decision
of the Supreme Council. It is as
serted that unless such a decided
increase in the preniiun rate as was
ordered had been made it would be
only a short time before the order
would have to go out of business.
Most serious of the objections is
that old men who have for many
years been paying assessments will
after October i, when the new rates
become effective, have to pay great
ly increased premiums or lorfeit
their policies. It is argued against '
this that in most cases policies on
the lives of men more thau 6s years
old, of whom there are about 10.000
iu the order, are held by outsiders
or relatives on speculation.
While it is true the older mem
bers are doing most of the protest
ing, they are supported by the
younger men, who take the stand
that if the old men are now depriv
ed of the protection they paid for
for more than 20 years, no guaran
tee can be extended the young men
that the same thing will not happen
them.
The membership of the order is
now estimated to be more than 316
000, scattered through every state
in the Union and throughout
Canada.
Don't Violate tne Laws-
The Government is entailing a
very heavy expense in establishing
and maintaining rural free delivery
of our mails, and it is proving such
a convenience to the people that
very few who have experienced its
advantages would be willing to do
without it.
But the Government expects to
be reimbursed for its great outlay,
by an increased amount of mail to
be carried, on which postage is to
be paid, and it expects everybody
to play fair iu this matter. It is,
therefore, required that all mail
matter dropped into a box must
have the requisite amount of post
age stamps on it or a sufficient a
mount of money in the box to pay
the postage, and anything found in
the box, which is not thus stamped
or has not enough cash with it to
pay the postage, is to be lifted by
the carrier and brought to the post
office where it will be "held for
postage" according to law.
We have published the fact be
fore, but there are some who, it
seems, have not learned the iact or
else think they can slip iu a letter
to a friend by dropping it into his
letter box, their line ot reasoning
probably being that as the letter
need not be handled by any govern
ment official, there need be no post
age paid on it. But those boxts
are erected under the protecting
care ot government and thus form
part of the post office department,
although paid for by the individual
and, therefore, nothing can be per
mitted to pass through them with
out postage being paid thereon.
Carriers, who are expected to be
obliging and accommodating, have
no choice in the matter, as their in
structions are imperative, to lift
every piece 01 mailable matter found
in a box, for which there is not pro
vision for postage, and if the post
age is not forth-coming in a speci
fied time the missive is sent to the
Dead Letter Office.
Let everybody play fair, there
fore, with the government, and
there will be no cause for complaiut
if intended notes dropped into letter
boxes fail to reach their destination.
More Belief Associations-
One of the results of the four
counties firemen's convention will
be the organization of relief associa
tions in towns and boroughs where
such do not exist, These associa
tions are entitled to a pro rata share
of the tax paid to the state by for
eign insurance companies doing
business in the Commonwealth.
The money is used for the benefit
of firemen injured while on duty or
for the relief of their families in
rase of death while fighting fires.

The American Girl.
WHAT MAKES HHR POPULAR.
OMir American Ri'rl Is admired nnd likrd
t home and abrond because ulie Is the
happiest, usually the lifmltliipHt and friend
liest of girls. She la fond of life anil is
alive to everything; beautiful and good in
existence. Jlrs. Uangtry has said that the
Ameriean woman has little to learn from
her Knfrllsh sister.
Dr. Fierce, the specialist in women's dis
eases, of rtuflalo, N. Y., advises simple ex
ercises for women, preferably in the out
door air. But many women are confined
to the house and their household duties or
their business confines them to poorly ven
tilated rooms.
If a woman suffers from a headache, a
backache, a sensation of irritability or
twitching and uncontrollable nervousness,
something must be wrong with the head or
back, she naturally says, but all the time
the real trouble very often centers in the
womanly organs. In 98 per cent, of cases
the seat of the difficulty is here, and a
woman shnnld take rational treatment for
its cure. The local disorder and inflamma
tion of the delicate special organs of the
sex should be treated steadily and system
atically. Hacked up by over a third of a. century of
remarkable and uniform cures, a record
such as no other remedy for the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women ever
attained, the proprietors and makers of Dr,
Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully
warranted in offering to pay $500 for any
case of Leurorrhea, Female Weakness, Pro
lapsus, or Falling of Womb which they
oannot cure. All they ask is a fair and
reasonable trial of their means of cure.
3,500,000 Eggs in Storage
Accumulation Held Until Prices go up
Next Winter
A York dispatch tny.s: The buy
ing and storing of eggs in York
county by agents for York and
Baltimore cold storage houses has
come to a close for the year. The
prices at present asked by the farm
ers and poultry raisers are too high
to render buying profitable. In
one cold storage warehouse there
are packed 2,"oo,ooo eggs, which
will be held until next winter,
when they will be put upon the
market.
In addition to the 200,000 dozen
in this particular warehouse sever
al country dealers have large hold
ings in cold storage houses in Bal
timore and Philadelphia. These
will aggregate over 1,000,000 eggs,
so that at the present time there
are about 3.500,000 York county
eggs in storage.
Peach Drop do Failure
With the recurrence of the peach
season its utter failure is yearly
prophesied. This prophesy is made
as regularly as the advent of the
season. Indeed it has come to be
recognized as one of the yearly pre
dictions, and the people look for,
expect and are propared for it when
tne time tor it arrives. It has come
to be such a fixture that they would
be disappointed were it not made.
This year, however, the indications
are that despite the predictions the
peach crop will be unusually heavy
and it is with pleasure and surprise
that one reads news like the follow
ing:
"On the 10,000 little three-year-
old trees on Col. W. F. Reynolds'
farm near Bellefonte, there are so
many peaches that workmen are
pruuing them off to prevent break
ing down the trees; yet there will
be 5000 bushels."
The followiHtr letters are held at
the Bloomsburg, Pa., postoffice, and
will be sent to the dead letter office
July ii, 1905. Persons calling for
these letters, will please say that
tiiey were advertised June 29,
