Everybody Including tho priest nnd the presi dents Is plastered from head to foot with mud, nnd even the musical In struments are splashed, but every body Is happy, for the rice fields are saved. The locusts are dried, re duced to a fine flour nnd baked in crisp, brown cakes by the mnccabees, who consider them a great dainty.

In this rack there are lots and open ings of different sizes and shapes and adapted to reeeltc and hold any of the utensils used generally around the stove. This Includes the poker, etove-lld, lifter, shovel and grate fchakur. A Homely Remedy. A somewhat old-time but success ful remedy for swollen feet Is to batho them In water In which wood ashes have boon boiled. The water must be cooled and strained before the feet are placen in it. , Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im perfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out often are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Perjury, besides boln onx of the oldest offenses In the catalogue of crime, has always been very severely punished. With the advance of civ ilization, however, fiendish punish ments have been replaced with more humane, If still sexere penalties. In the days of the Homan empire any one who committed perjury was thrown from a precipice, whilst the Creeks branded their false swearers. It Is Interesting to note that when the latter embraced the Christian re ligion the punishment was altered to that of having the togue cut out, a sort of punishment wh.ch was con tldered to fit the crime In the early centuries. In the middle ages some coun tries adopted tho system of giving the perjurer the punishment for the crime he fals.-ly accused another of. Thus If he swore a neighbor had committed murder, and the charge was disproved, the perjurer would be sentenced to death, and the other penalties of tho penal code were ex ccted for the particular crime al leged. The two greatest perjurers In the history of the world were Titus Oates and Arthur Orton. the Tlch borne claimant. Oates. who had been dismissed from the ship he was serving on, turned lecturer, and, linding that It did not pay, conceived the notion of inventing a i.oplsh plot against the king, nnd reaping the rewards that were always on offer against traitors of the Roman relig ion In England. The story was believed for a time and eighteen Catholics of rank were arrested and executed. Meanwhile the court conferred a lavish sum of money on Oates, who quickly be came the terror of everybody, for he had merely to point the finger 0 suspicion at any one, to have that person arrested. However, he fell Into disfavor, was himself arrested, tried for per jury and sentenced to imprisonment for life. Before entering the dun geon he was put in th ? pillory and ifterwards puKIc whipped all th way from Newgate to Tyburn This extraordinary man, how ever, had not reached the end of Us career, for the accession of Wil liam of Orange, once more brought the rtoman Catholic religion Into dis favor, and tho perjurer was nut only released but a pension of $ 1 i a week for life was conferred upon him. The Tchborne case, is, of course, the best known In the history of English law, but sorce of Its marvel ous features have not been empha sized. How an uneducjteu man could have hoodwinked a nether to swear that he was her son, convlnea a firm of astute lawyers of the same fact, and.

The bachelor uncle had been left In charfce of his little niece and, al though he had accepted the charge In an easy, off hand manner, he soon realized that he had a contract on his hands. The first drink of water he car- lied up to her with the evening pa- : per in his other hand and his pipe in his mouth. On the third trip he laid his paper down with a sigh and j he. also put his pipe aside thinking that the smoke might be ..he cause of such loud Infantile distress. He sang dirges, laughed bitterly, pulled faces and performed all the antics that occur to bachelor uncles In such emergencies, but whenever he was In the room his little niece cried for him to go out, and whenever be went out she cried for him to come In. "Hang them anyway!" ho was heard to grumble as he fretfully played this exhausting game of peek-a-boo. "One or forty-one; they're FOR Neuralgia. Sciatica. .Rheumatism. Backache. Pain inchest.

"High-heeled shoes are the cause of more organic diseases among women than the tightly laced corset or any other one thing," said a large manufacturer not long ago. And the vainest, which means the brav est when the adjective Is applied to womankind, must admit that It Is true. They throw tho whole diaphragm out of line and place the foot In nn unnatural position, thus forcing the knees and head to maintain the eq'il llbrlum of the whole body. It does seem a strange desire on the part of women thus to cripple themselves, and yet they will persist In hoping that the curved heels decrease the size of the foot and add an extra Inch to the stature. A physician bus said: "I consider the high-heeled shoo I3 now the greatest contributing crisp for the necendUy of organic operations upon women. If Damn Fashion floeg not soon decree that high heels he dis carded for the fiat foot of the "suf fragette" the doctors will not hold themselves responsible for the health of the women of to-day, and espec ially to-morrow. Another authority hna remarked that "women may Imagine that they delude men Into thinking that their height Is greater and their feet smaller, but 1 do not believe that any man with sense enough to have opinions Is ever deceived nt hM. And when men realize how destruc tive to the health such exaggerated heels are and how Injurious to the organs, they will shun women who wear them, particularly when they are seeking wlveu," Still more dtsconragln;;! It reenis that a woman must choose between fashionable footgear and p husband. Yet they call them tho weaker sex even with such mighty matters rest ing upon their decision. Perhaps It Is true that high-heeled shoes are not so healthful as they might be but It seems hardly fair to cast them Into such utter oblivion. Women seldom walk on them, and for dancing they are perfectly con venient. But there are many youns girls and women who are much in jured by the excessive use of the Louis XV. heel, and they would find tlint a one-Inch heel Is quite suffic ient to support their weight nnd nt the same time be becoming and con venient. It Is a true fact that if Old Dame Fashion decreed high heels out-of-dato and unattractive many femi nine martyrs would ulsh with relief and tho uncomfortable slippers would be consigned to the fireplace.

When maklnt up flannel garments for a little child it is un excellent plan to first of all wash the piece of flannel before cutting out the gar ment. Nearly all flannel even the very best makes haB an unpleasant knack of shrinking, and it is exceed ingly unnoylng after the trouble of making up to find that the gar.nent has shrunk and has become too tUht. after a very few visits to tho wash tub. In any caso It Is wli;u to uy.: I;.- a tlunnel garment loose, to allow for any such contingency. Homo Chat .MBtLES'AMTTBDM IPo 0ry of the Little Tablets j $L 4 ' J AND THE PAIN IS GONE.

The vogue for figured materials has Invaded the province of lingerie, and although white holds Its pines of prominence in the best models, I delicate, tints such as pink, blue and lavender are also favored by smart women.

Is that ol Bitting with one leg swung over the knee of the other. Headaches, colj feet, varicose veins, ulcers and many other discomforts attendant on an liuperfcct circulation of the blood aro directly traceable to this habit. When the right leg Is swung over tho le.t knee the whole weight li sustained by this knee, placing till the pressure against the under purt of the right leg between the calf and the knee-cap. At this very plaoe are a great number of large velnj, ar teries and nerves; tho pressure on them crowds all the tissues together and materially Interferes with the circulation of tie blood, and the disturbance of nature's " p. acesses manifests Itself lu many bodily evils and Inconveniences. Many who would not be guilty of crossing the legs In public often surrender to tho temporary comfort of the position In the seclusion of their own rooms.
