Laconic Correflpondcnce.
It Is said that the celebi-iited Gorman
theologian, Hclilvlfrmurlicr, wis rather
Inclined to suve than to spend money,
lie was at out- time quite 111 and sent
for a renowned physician, Ir. Orafe,
who. was court physician at the time
und whose son became the great ocu
list. Schlelermacher recovered, and
when fully restored to health he sent
u polite note h Dr. (irafe, expressing
his gratitude and Inclosing 4 louls
il'or, begging the physician to accept
tills small sum as a toUeu of his ap
preciation of the services which had
been rendered him.
The following day ho received his
gold pieces again, accompanied by the
following laconic note from the great
physician: "The poor I cure for noth
ing. The well to do pay me according
to the regular 'medicine tax.' The
rich reward ine lavishly, according as
It suits their pleasure!"
Thereupon the clergyman sat down
and sent Dr. Orafe this still more la
conic answer: "The 4 louls d'or are
received back with gratitude. The
poor Schlelermacher!"

The most common forms of vertigo
are the gastric and the nervous, tias
trle vertigo Is sometimes induced by u
very slight disorder of the stomach.
The patient may feel a sudden swim
ming at the hi-ad; objects may seem to
revolve; he totters an, I perhaps falls.
There may be nausea, faintness, head
ache, visual hallucinations and buzz
ing in the ears, but there Is no deaf
ness nor any danger of a loss of con
Kcioiisnt'ss. Castile vortigj Is cured
by treatment directed to the cause.
Nervous vertigo may come from
nervous exhaustion resulting from va
rious causes Intellectual strain or an
Immoderate use of tobacco, alcohol or
tea. The symptoms are much the same
as In ga tric vertlg. They are felt
Ftrong'y In an elevated position by
the preacher in (lie pulpit or the speak
er on the platform. As In gastric- ver
tigo, the treatment must be directed
to the cause. Hut patients need not
fear nn attack of paralysis or of apo
plexy. I.nmpn Inert Ilofore Candlm.

the Mosaic candlestick held oil lamps,

It Is a foolish notion to suppose that
the ringing of bells or "tanging" of tin
pans will cause a swarm of bees to set
tle. The real origin of this custom
dated back to the reign of Alfred the
Great, who, In order to prevent dis
putes regarding the ownership of a
swarm, ordered that the owner should
always ring n bell when his bees
swarmed, nnd ever since then the good
fanner's wife has been rushing out
with ringing bells whenever the lM-es
swarmed, and the fact that they set
tled verified. In her own mind, the be
lief that the bell did It.

BEAUTIFUL CUT GLASS.
American Product is Gaining in Favor
and Prices Drop.
merican cut glass has become the
boa oracle In the market," said W,
1 luce of Corning, N. Y.
"The day Is coming, and Is almost
here now, when wo can all have cut
g'na on our tables, and It will no
loader be confined to the wealthy
cic.sscs as a luxury. The price Is tie
creasing all the time, and It is only
the handsomest and most Intricate
designs of cutting that demand fancy
prices In theso days. Imported glass
used to be the thing, hut the Ameri
can industry has made rapid strides
lu the last few years, and now the
coloring and tho stylo of domestic pro
duction surpasses that which is
brought In from foreign countries,
Thread Mother's Needless.
If your mother's sight has failed so
that threading a noedle is a task' al
most beyond her, and you see her dif
ficulty, help her over this little ob
stacle by threading her needlos for
her. Simply take the spool of thread
and paper of needles and without
breaking the thread thread the whole
paper of needles as one would string
beads. When a neodleful of thread
Is desired all that Is neoessary Is to
take the first needle, draw oil as long
a thread as desired, fasten the out
side needle to the spool aud leave It
ready fo next time.
Neatness is Always Attractive.
The plainest woman is a delight to
look upon If her toilet is one of ex
quisite neatness In every respect. Her
hair must be done up securely and
not look as if it were ready to tumble
around her shoulders at any moment
Her gloves must be always mended,
her boots in perfect condition and
never any tag ends at the bottoms of
her skirts. Most men know nothing
about fashion, but will notice whether
a woman is neat or not, and Is the
quality they most admire.
Russian Housework.
In Russia every housewife has par
ticular pride In her kitchen furnish
ings. Every mother provides her
daughter with these things at the time
of her marriage. Where it can bo
afforded the wine pots and goblets for
the far-famed wines of Bessarabia, In
which the Russians delight, as well
as other pieces of dining-room serv
ice, are of silver Instead of copper,
while copper is restricted to kitchen
use, though among the poorer classes
It Is all copper and brass.
Real German Potato Salad.
Cut one quarter of a pound of
bacon in small sliced and fry to a light
brown. Have ready cold boiled pota
toes which you will slice and mix
with two small chopped or sliced
onions, and a little chopped parsley.
Mix with a French dressing, and pour
Into the salad the fried bacon, fat
and all. Toss thoroughly, and serve
on lettuce leaves. Let It be well
chilled before serving.
Woman's Hard Lot.
The treason of a woman 'in Korea
Is punished by poisoning. If a man
commits theft his property is con
fiscated and hl3 wife is sold as a
slave. For the desecration of the
graves of ancestors the mother of a
culprM and all the female members
of his family are poisoned. Thus for
every offense of a man the innocent
female members of his family are
obliged to share the penalty with h'm.
Could any lot be more cruel than that
of being a woman In the far east?
Sleep Is a Beautifier.
A woman who leads an active life,
yet getn very little sleep, cannot hope
to retain her beauty or health for any
length of time. A complete rest for
from seven to eight hours nightly
must be cultivated until It becomes
a fixed habit. Have a regular hour
for rising and retiring, and do not
deviate from It unless forced to.
Polishing Brass Work.
All fine bras3 work s lacquered
nowadays with the exception of
pieces exposed to the weather or to
strong fire. Therefore, it cannot bo
scoured with roMenetone, vinegar or
the substances formerly used for
brass. Wash it in warm water, dry
It thoroughly and polish with chanio's
skin.
Smallpox Superstition.
In the outer islands of the He
brides smallpox Is still known as
bhean mhath ("the good wife"). This
politeness is due to the ancient super
stltHon that if one would escape-tho
dread disease one should- speak of it
respectfully.
Washing Chamois.
Chamois is one of the few things
which come out smooth and soft from
washing if wrung directly from the
soapsuds without rinsing in clear
water. The latter process tends to
harden It.

The principle ohmi--. in meiilcino as

the majority of tho people Bays Is right
must be right. Therefore tho certitude
of the verdict on Thompson's Dnrosmn,
Kidney and Liver Cure. It has been
used for ninny years by peorla all over
tho world. It has stood the ten of tlma,
and has the approbation of every ono
who lms ever used It. Not In one so I
tary Instance has Thompson's Unrosma
failed to accomplish what la claimed for
It tho nbsoluto cure for any nffcclio.i
of the liver nnd Kidneys. Most of
humnn physical Ills spring from de
rangement of those organs. The heart,
Hie stomach, the bladder, the nervous
system, the mind, all answer the dan
