EDWARD O. LAPKY Gen. Pass. Agt., Rochester, N. Y. SDR. CALDWELL'S Q| YRUP PEPSFIFJ CURES IKDIOESTION. 8 J CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1901. "For Way* That Arc Dnrk," I3te. "Some years ago," says the advertis ing agent of a tobacco firm quoted by the Philadelphia Record, "I wished to introduce among the Chinese a two for five cigar that my people were heavily interested in, and I decided to draw up a little card extolling this cigar in Chi nese characters. "I sought out Lo Hen W'ong in San Francisco, a very intelligent fellow, and got him to write me a few sen tences in praise of iny article. I had what he wrote lithographed and dis tributed the cards by thousands in all the Chinatowns of the United States. They were inscribed with a picture of the cigar, and below were the words: 'Smoke this cigar. It is the best oil the market, and two for five is its price.' "That, at least, is what I thought was the meaning of the Chinese.' char acters. I found out. some six months later, my mistake. The words Lo Hen W'ong had written and which I had had lithographed were: 'Don't smoke this cigar, it is not good. Hut the Gong company's cigarettes, for sale in every Chinatown at 3 cents a package, are excellent.' "Lo Hen Wong had got $lO from me for his work, and I don't know how much he got from the (Jong company. We distributed many thousands of the cards before we got onto the trick that had been played on us." <>1«1 XnmpN In London. If London street names are not al ways what they seem, the names of the great parishes usually are. Take Lam beth, for instance. That vast district lias retained its name practically unal tered since the days of Edward the Confessor, who granted a charter in which it is styled Lambehrth. Some illiterate scribe, who helped in the mak ing of "Domesday," did, indeed, make an effort to obliterate its real name by calling it Lanchei, but his efforts were, fortunately, in vain. William Itufus in another charter named it Lambeth, since when it has kept its title unsul lied. In the old days Lambeliith (from lilthe, a haven) was the great river port whence agricultural produce was fer ried across the Thames to the more populous country opposite. There are still many "liithes" left us, such as Queenliitlie and Uotherhithe, and, al though their original functions have gone, there still remains a shadow to remind us of their departed glory.— London Chronicle. How to Muko Chop Sni'j'. For those who like or who think they would like the famous Chinese dish, chop suey, the following recipe, which any intelligent housewife can follow, was given by W. E. S. Fales, for sever al years vice consul at Anioy: "For four persons two chickens' liv ers, two chickens' gizzards, one pound young, clean pork cut into small pieces, half an ounce of green root ginger and two stalks yf celery. Saute this in a frying pan over a hot fire, adding four tablespoonfuls of olive oil, one table spoonful of vinegar, half a cupful of boiling water, one teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce, half a teaspoon ful of salt, black and red pepper to taste and a dash of cloves and cinna mon. When nearly done, add a small can of mushrooms, half a cupful of ei ther bean sprouts or French green peas or string beans chopped tine or aspara gus tips. The see-yu sauce which is eaten with this delectable dish can be procured at any Chinese grocery." Il«* Prepared. Daniel Webster once told a friend that his great speech in reply to Hayne, which is the high water mark of modern eloquence, but which at the time was supposed to have been deliv ered without preparation, had been substantially prepared long before. When called upon suddenly to reply to the fiery Carolinian's attacks, which so alarmed the New Englanders at the capital, he was entirely at ease and ready for the fray, for, as lie said, ho had "only to turn to ills notes tucked away in a pigeonhole," and refresh his recollection. "If Ilayne," he said, "had tried to make a speech to fit my notes, he could not have hit them better. No man is Inspired by the occasion. I never was." Left and nijglit Limbs. Physiologists and scientists in gen eral have been making some curious experiments with a view to determine the relative length and strength of "right and left limbs." Fifty and nine tenths per cent of the men examined had the right arm stronger than the left, 1(5.4 per cent had the two arms of equal length and strength, and 32.7 per cent had the left arm stronger than tlie right. Of women, 40.9 per cent had the right arm stronger than the left, and 24.5 per cent had the left stronger than the right.—London Fam ily Doctor. Where Smoking: Inn Crime. There is one country in the world where it is considered a crime to smoke. Abyssinia is ri.gion, and the law forbidding tobacco dates from the year 1(542. It was at first merely intended to prevent priests from smok ing in the churches, but it was taken too literally, and nowadays even for eigners have to be careful not to be seen smoking. An I'nuNUiil Rnee. An unusual race was advertised to be run at llipon, In Yorkshire, in 1725: "The Latin's Plate, of £ls value, by any horse that was no more than five years old the last grass. Women to be the riders. Each to pay a guinea en trance. Three heats and twice round the common for a heat." Ireland has 408 uhlebodicd persons to 1,000 inhabitants, Scotland 424 and England 432.

Satitley** Advpiitnre Wltli n Band of Mcxlciiii Hniiditft Homo Experl encew of the Tenor Mario— lloiv Ln blnohe I*ut n Renr to Flight. Many yearn Hlnpp, when traveling with some friends in Mexico, Charles Santley was captured by halfbrced bandits and, being unable to pay the large ransom demanded, carried off to the mountains. Over supper the sing er, by no means weighed down by his mishap, chanced to break into song, which so delighted the brigand chief that he demanded an encore. Santley saw his chance and ex pressed liLs willingness to comply on condition that he and his companions were granted their release. The sug gestion was accepted, aud for over two hours was the singer's voice raised in such exquisite melody that the bandits, true to their word, allowed him and those with him to depart. The late Joseph Maas had a some what similar experience. Years back, when with a companion buffalo hunt ing on the? American prairies, he was captured by Indians and carried to tlieir camp. When at his wits' end how to extricate himself from the dilemma, his friend suggested the pow er of song. Forthwith he commenced an operatic selection that so delighted his captors that they loosened his bonds and urged him, at the point of their spears, to continue. Luckily his voice had a soporific ef fect upon the Indians, who one by one dropped asleep until, just as he was on the point of stopping from exhaus tion. the last passed into the realms of dreams. Then he and his compan ion quietly stole away. His wonderful voice on one occasion placed the great tenor Mario in a some what invidious position. When travel ing with some companions in Spain, he fell into the hands of a party of ma rauding gypsies, who demanded the customary ransom. Mario, tickled at the situation, answered their request In impromptu song, which he delivered with such exquisite mock dignity that his captors with unanimous acclama tion elected him captain of their band. The singer diplomatically acquiesced in their decision, but in the course of the following day contrived to make his escape with his friends. On another occasion in Madrid the same singer, as he was returning late one night from the theater where he was engaged, was arrested by the po lice in mistake for a political discon tent. In vain lie asserted his identity. He was carried before their chief, who likewise smiled incredulously at the captive's asseverations.

When within a few feet, it halted as though to gather itself together for a final rush, when Lablaelie stepped for ward and from the lowest depths of his immense chest sent forth such a thunderous roar that the terrified ani mal turned and fled.
