No appetite, loss of strength, nervous
ness, headache, constipation, bad breath,
general debility, sour risings, and catarrh
of the stomach are all due to Indigestion.

The Making of Diamonds.
It is quilt- possibles to manufacture
diamonds. Indeed a famous French
man of science, Moissan, made very
large numbers by means of his elec
tric furnace. 11 is process was to dis
solve lumps of sugar in molten iron,
subjecting the solution to enormous
pressure. Lump sugar may be said tc
consist simply of water and diamond.
It is the case that the diamond is mere
ly crystallized carbon. There are throe
kinds of carbon plumbago, graphite
and diamond—the composition of all ot
which is identical. When charcoal is
dissolved in molten iron, graphite is
formed. All the diamonds found in
Borneo, Itrazll, India and South Africa
are made in much the same manner—
that is, by the action of great heat and
enormous pressure. Charcoal formed
from wood has been baked into dia
monds, (lie enormous heat and pres
sure of the earth's interior causing the
beautiful white stone to crystallize out.
Although artificial (distinct from imi
tation) diamonds have been made for
some time, the cost has been prohib
itive, while the stones have been of but
insignificant size and value.
Fastidious Smokers.
'"Did you know," asked one member
of a group in the hotel lobby, "that an
Indian is much more fastidious than a
white man in the matter of smoking?
I saw when I was in Montana several
of their war dances and (he councils
afterward. You know, they sit in a
circle on the ground and pass the pipe
of good fellowship around in silence.
Each man takes two or three putt's
and then hands the pipe to his next
neighbor. liut if you notice you will
see that in the whole circuit which it
makes the mouthpiece is never wet.
The red man merely lays the end of
the stem against his lower lip and.
keeping his mouth partly open, draws
a deep breath. Removing the pipe, he
exhales the smoke and then perhaps
repeats the process, but he never puts
the mouthpiece into his mouth in the
common 'paleface' fashion. If he is
asked to smoke a peace pipe after a
white man, he first wipes off the end
of the pipestem where it has been in
the previous smoker's mouth."—New
York Times.
The Lecturer's Subject.
"I call my lecture 'Class,' " said the
lecturer, "not because it says anything
about that subject, but because of the
nature of it. To begin with, it is the
sort of lecture that anybody can see
through. Then I am liable to make a
number of breaks in its delivery, after
which it will be full of funny cracks.
In addition, it requires a lot of sand
to produce it, to say nothing of the
hot air employed. The agents have
blown it pretty much to the commit
tees.
"Another point of resemblance be
tween my lecture and glass is that
when cut it is much more valuable. I
shan't refer to the subject any more,
though it is not a safe one to drop.
The principal reason for my selection
of this name anyway is my knowledge
of the fascination foreign titles have
for the American people."
liut noticing that the audience had
hurried away the lecturer desisted.—
Chicago News.
Every One of Them a Bird.
A current newspaper item is as fol
lows: "The wife of a Methodist minis
ter in West Virginia has been married
three times. Her maiden name was
Partridge; her first husband was
named Uobin, her second Sparrow, and
the present one's name is Quayle.
There are now two young Robins, one
Sparrow and three little Quayles in the
family. One grandfather was a Swann,
and another was a Jay, but he's dead
and now a bird of Paradise. They live
on Ilawk avenue, Eagleville, Canary
islands, and the fellow who wrote this
article is a lyre bird and an interesting
relative of the family."—St. Louis Re
public.
Proving a Rumor.
During one of the Mardi Gras festiv
ities at New Orleans a couple evidently
from the provinces wandered into one
of the numerous little French restau
rants. The lady scanned the menu.
"Here's entree," she said. "What is
it? Shall I order it?"
"Good heavens, 110!" replied her com
panion. "I've always heard that the
French eat it, but not for us. You'd
better order ham and eggs. An entry's
a race horse."—Harper's.
Too Many Weddings.
"What brought you here, my poor
man?" inquired the prison visitor.
"Well, lady," replied the prisoner, "I
guess my trouble started in attendin'
too many weddin's."
"Ah! You learned to drink there, or
steal perhaps?"
"No, lady, I was always the bride
groom."
No Odors In His Cab.
An old lady about to hire a cab in
London asked the cabman if he could
take her to Trafalgar square. The cab
man replied, "No, mum, 1 can't, and I
wouldn't if I could, and the next time
you want to eat onions bile 'em!"

Church—What's that piece of cord
tied around your finger for? Gotham—
My wife put it there to remind me to

mail it? Gotham—No. She forgot to
give it to me!—Congregationalist.
His Ears.
"If Smithers undertakes to pull my
ears," said a fellow at a street corner,
"he will have his hands full."
The crowd looked at the man's ears
and smiled.—London Telegraph.
Some people make the mistake of
thinking they are sure just because
they are slow.—Puck.
A Boomerang.
"I know a German editor," said a
newspaper man, "who found himself
one night when the paper was about
togo to press without any editorials.
What was he to do? It was too late
to write any himself, too late to have
any written. Like a Hash an inspira
tion came to him, and, dipping his pen,
lie wrote hurriedly:
" 'After carefully reading the edi
torials written for the morning's issue
by four of the ablest and most bril
liant members of our staff we have
come to the conclusion that they might
be misinterpreted by the authorities
and regarded as an attack on the gov
ernment. We ourselves consider them
perfectly innocent, but as we have no
desire to see our newspaper confiscated
we have very unwillingly, though, as
we think, prudently, resolved to with
hold the articles in question. This
must serve as 1111 apology to our read
ers for a blank editorial page.'
"Imagine f his editor's shock when his
secretary telephoned him the next

Pet Poisoning a Trade.
"Every town has its pet poisoner if
you know where to find him," said a
druggist. "These men keep my stock
of alkaloids 011 the move. There is a
demand for (lie pet poisoner. Suppose
your favorite dog breaks his back.
What a relief, then, to summon the pet
poisoner and have the animal slain
without pain. Cats and birds, dogs
and even fish come within the prov
ince of the pet poisoner. lie charges
usually a dollar a case, but if you are
rich he won't object to charging you .S5
or .$lO. Som'? folks in their wills leave
directions that their pet dogs or cats be
poisoned, fearing that the animals
would find life too harsh and sad after
their loving owners' decease. Some
folks, too, if they are going away for a
long time—making a tour of the world,
say—have their pets poisoned rather
than trust ihem to servants possibly
careless. Mistaken kindness I call such
doings, and that, I bet, is what the pets
call it too."—Cincinnati Enquirer.
"Either" and "Neither."
There are two or three things about
these two words that one should re
member. In the first place, they should
never be used in connection with more
than two things—as: "It was either
Tuesday or Wednesday," not "either
Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday;" "it
was neither Tuesday nor Wednesday,"
not "neither Tuesday, Wednesday nor
Thursday." Then, either should not bo
used in the sense of each, as "they
walked on, one on either side of the
road." It should be one 011 "each"
side of the road. The third caution Is
about the pronunciation. Some per
sons insist that they should be pro
nounced "i-ther" and "ni-ther," with
the"i" long. But this is more an af
fectation perhaps than anything else.
The best authorities agree that the
right pronunciation is "e-ther" and
"ne-ther."—New York World.
"Pinched."
The humor of school and college ex
aminations is# perennial. One speci
men was contributed by one of the
high schools where a girl in the de
partment of history was required to
write a brief sketch of Queen Eliza
beth. Her r>aper when turned in was
found to contain the following sen
tence: "Elizabeth was so dishonest that
she stole her soldiers' food." The
teacher who conducted these examina
tions was puzzled to know just whence
this particular information had perco
lated into the girl's mind. So, calling
her up, she asked the question.
Why," was the ready answer, "that's
just what it says in the history."
The book was sent for and the pas
sage examined. It was found to read,
"Elizabeth was so parsimonious that
she pinched her soldiers' ration."—

A Curious Rescue.
Two officers hunting wolves 011 the
Dry mountain, in central Servia, lost
their way in a fog. After wandering
for fourteen hours one of them lay
down in the snow and speedily became
unconscious. Ilis comrade bound him
with cords, placed him in a sitting po
sition and then rolled him down the
mountain. He glided down the slope at
terrific speed and reached the bottom
safely, being found an hour later in an
exhausted condition by a peasant.
Man and Plants.
M. Caniille Saint-Saens says:"l do
not pretend to adduce Irrefragable evi
dence in support of my theory that
man began his earthly career as a
plant. Ido maintain, however, that an
impartial examination of my theory
must allow that my assumption and
hypotheses are sufficiently plausible to
be considered justifiable."

"The manager always keeps back a
portion of the villain's salary."
