A Mexican Egg Test.
It is a common sight In the plaza
to behold a tall woman, who is selling
two reals' worth of eggs, pick them
up one by one. put on end and then
the othrr to her lips and hand them
over to the customer, who repeats the
same Identical operation.
To the Inexperienced onlooker It
seems as if they were tasting the ex
tremities of the egg. As a matter of
fact, they ncwr touch the egg with
the tongue.
The Idea, of the pcrfornnrice is
that when an egg is fresh one end
will be riislnctly colder than the
other. The end which has the air
chamber Is the warmer of the two.
The human lips are exceedingly sen
sitive to heat and cold, and even the
novice at this form of egg testing
promptly becomes a capable judge. If
both ends of the egg reveal the same
temperature that egg may be count
ed as bad, as It Is a fairly good sign
that the air chamber Is broken and
the contents spread equally within the
shell. Mexican Herald.

TWO OFEN LETTER:
IMPORTANT TO MARRIED WOMEN
Mrs. Mary Dlmmick of Washington telle
How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Made Her Well.
It Is with great pleasure we publish
the following letters, as they convinc
ingly prove the claim we have so many
times made in our columns that Mrs.
Ptnkham, of Lynn, Mass., is fully quali
fied to give helpful advice to sick women.
Bead Mrs. Dimmick's letter'
Her first letter:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :
" I have been a sufferer for the past eight
years with a trouble which first originated
from painful ironstnintioii the pains were,
excruciating, with inflammation and ulcera
tion of the womb. The doctor nays I mart
have an operation or I cannot live. I do not
want to submit to an operation if I can possi
bly avoid it Please help me," Mrs. Mary
Dimmick, Washington, D. C.
Her second letter ;
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :
"You will remember my condition when I
last wrote you, and that the doctor said I
must have an operation or I could not lire.
I received your kind letter and followed your
advice very carefully and am now entirely
well. As my case was go serious it seems a
miracle that I am cure1 - I know that I owe
not only my health bu ty life to Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and to your
advice. I can walk miles without an ache or
a pain, and I wish every suffering woman
would road this letter and realire what you
can do for them." Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 59th
and East Capitol Streets, Washington, D. C.
How easy it was for Mrs. Dimmick to
write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass.,
and how little it cost her a two-cent
stamp. Yet how valuable was the reply!
As Mrs. Dimmick says it saved her life.
Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands
of just such letters as the above, and
offers ailing women helpful advice.

MILKING RUBBER TREES.
The first tapping of the cultivated
rubber trees on the east coast of Nic
aragua occurred during the present
year, the trees having attained the
age of seven years. The novel exper
iment was tried of making slight in
cisions at intervals of a fortnight. In
stead of exhausting the sap at once
with a Inrge tapping. Although the
quantity obtained at one time was
thus relatively small, it was found
that the trees yielded as well at the
second tapping as at the first, and it
Is believed that by this method they
can be Induced to form the "milk hab
it." to the advantage both of them
selves and their owners. The rubber
obtained Is nlso better than that sup
plied by the old unscientific method
practiced by the natives.
NEW WAY TO TLAX BLIXDMAN
This is a simple little game, but it
makes lots of fun. One advantage
about it is that it requires no think
ing;, no knowledge of books, no prepa
ration of any kind; it is just a Jolly
game, to make boys and girls of any
age roar with laughter.
One of the players is to be blind
folded and the others stand about the
room as they please. The blindfolded
one then walks or gropes around until
he touches a player, and the player
touched must then stand still and make
a noise in imitation of some animal;
say a cat, a dog, a cow, a pig, or a
horse.
If the blindfolded player chooses he
can have the sound made three times,
and if he then guesses the name of
the person the person takes his place.
If he does not guess correctly he re
leases the player and tries again.

. WHY WE FLAXT TREES.
The pupilr were discussing tree
planting In a West Philadelphia school
the other day.
"Why do we plant trees?" asked the
teacher. Two scholars stood ready to
put down answers. The replies came
thick and fast, and here are some of
them:
Because they arc beautiful.
Because they give us shade.
They break the force of winds.
They help to make us healthy by
equalising the temperature and moist
ure in the woods.
Because they provide us with India
rubber, gum, resin, spices, dyestuffs,
medicines, seeds and nuts.
They furnish us with timber for
building houses, ships, railways cars,
etc.
Because without them we could not
have spools, matches, shoe pegs, tooth
picks and lots of other useful things.
Because trees are the most valuable
crop the ground can produce.
The value of our trees is fifteen per
cent, more each year than our produc
tion of all our wheat, corn, oats, rye,
barley and buckwheat put together.
AX ELEPHANT YARN.
In the jungles of India there lived
on elephant who showed a wonderful
6i'c-.city and mother love for its off
spring. One day, relates the Indianapolis
News, the baby elephant wnndercd
away from its mother, who showed
her uneasiness at its absence. Reach
ing the top of a hill, she saw her darl
ing quietly browsing at the foot, while
stealing along, at no great distance,
was an enormous lion. The mother
was at her wit's ends. .She realized
that the baby would not have a ghost
of a chance against the hunger of the
lion, who every moment was draw
ing nearer to its desired end. The lion
baited a moment directly beneath the
place where the helpless mother stood.
More quickly than it can be told the
elephant rolled herself Into a huge
ball and rolled down the hill. The
lion never knew what struck him.
His feelings were completely crushed,
while the baby elephant was led home,
where he no doubt got a severe scold
ing for going away from home with
out his mother's permission.
A FRIEND OF . ICE CREAM.
Every boy and girl is familiar with
the vanilla which comes in a bottle,
and which mother used to flavor the
puddings and ice cream of which they
were so fond. Few of them would
recognize their favorite If they met It
In Its own country. The vanilla plant
Is a climbing Tine, thirty feet in higbt,
and about the thickness of one's little
finger. The vine is round, knotted and
covered frith dark green pear-shaped
leaves.
DEPARTMENT;
The vines blossom profusely in the
spring; the strange delicate flowers,
with their pale yellow petals springing
from the angles where the leaves
branch off. After a few days' exist
ence, the flowers wither and fall, leav
ing but few of the blossoms to be fol
lowed by fruit. This takes the form
of a large pod, and, strange to say,
nit hough the pods attain their full
growth within the fifty days from the
fall of the petals, they take seven
months more to vlpen.
The pods vary from five to twelve
inches in length and are about one
inch across. In shape they are some
thing like a banana. They are better
described as rcs.'mblng a knife
sheath, hence the name vanilla, which
is i corruption of the Spanish word
vainilla a small scabbard. Each pod
contains a quantity of small black
granules, surrounded by a pulp, whose
peculiar combination of oil and acid
imparts to the pods that delicious flav
or and powerful iiroma, which is es
teemed by both young and old. Indi

A SIMPLE EXPERIMENT.
If you possess a magnet there are
more way of amusement and in
struction open to you than you have
any idea of. For instance, the follow-
HOW THB FILINGS WIIiTj GATHER.
Ing experiment with iron filings' will
prove most interesting, and will im
part a bit of useful knowledge.
Iron filings are procurable for the
asking in any machine shop or place
where there is an ironworker's lathe.
They are the minute particles of iron
that fall when the iron is being cut
or ground into shape, and possess the
same relation to iron as sawdust does
to wood. '
A bar magnet Is necessary for what
you nre to show. Lay it on a table or
any flat surface and then cover it over
with a piece of stiff cardboard. Now
sprinkle the iron filings over the sur
face of the cardboard, and then a very
jurious thing will happen.
The filings arrange themselves ns
shown in the accompanying illustra
tion, each particle forming n part of
the various curves which radiate from
the two magnetic centres, which indi
cate where the ends of the bar mag
not nre.
These lines have a scientific applica
tion, for you have made a very
learned demonstration with the iron
(ilings and the magnet you have
shown most clearly what is generally
called in science "the lines of magnetic
force." New York Mall.
THE TURTLE AND TUB STAIRS.
Two small boys brought a turtle
homo one day and put it in their nur
sery closet, hoping to frighten their
nurse when she opened the door to
hang up their clothes.
They went out for a romp on the
lawn, and when they came in the
nursery closet door 6tood ajar, but Mr.
Turtle was nowhere to be seen. They
asked the nurse if she had "seen- any
thing," but she "looked them in the
eye" and said "no;" so they knew she
was telling the truth. They searched
the hall and every room on that floor,
without finding a trace of the missing
creature.
Just as they were about to give up
a screech from the region of the kit
chen sent them belt skelter in that
direction. There stood the indignant
cook, who had Just come in fFom a
tete-a-tete with the next door waitress.
The butcher bay bad set the market
basket on the kitchen floor. In the
corner of the basket a small hole ex
posed nn inviting bit of steak, and
there stood the turtle nibbling like a
toothless bid man.
No one in the house could tell how
tht turtle got into the kitchen, so, in
search of nn explanation, the boys car
ried it up and set it at the top of the
stairs. The turtle walked to the edge
of the step, crept part way over the
brink, then, quickly drawing in Its
head, feet and tail, tumbled down to
the step below. Here it walked to the
edge, as before, then bumped down to
the next.
The boys shrieked in delight, and
when the turtle reached the bottom it
crawled off toward the kitchen, none
the worse for wear. Philadelphia

RATE AT WHICH MANY
CREATURES TRAVEL.
A European Engineer Has Recently
Measured the Speeds of the World's
Moving Inhabitants.
A European engineer, Joseph Olshau
sen, began about fifteen years ago to
measure the speeds of all creatures
that he could study.
A good pedestrian's speed over good
roads, he says, is a sixteenth of a mile
in twelve seconds. The German soldier
cover's a little more than three miles an
hour during an ordinary march that
does not last too long.
The maximum speed acquired by the
average person In swimming comforta
bly is thirty-nine inches a second.
Oarsmen in nn eight-oared barge ac
quired a speed of 197 inches in a
second.
Skaters average from nine to ten
yards a second, while runners on skids
have made as much as twenty-four
yards in the snme time, and the Jumper
on skids has developed almost forty
yards velocity in a second. The man
who made this record Jumped 120 feet
Ice boats skim over the ice at veloci
ties that have reached thirty-six yards
a second, or more than n mile a minute.
The fastest that has been done ou a
bicycle is the record of sixty-six feet a
second.
The horse can gallop six miles In an
hour for a considerable length of time.
The swiftest dog in the world, the
borzoi, or Russian wolfhound, has
made record runs that show seventy
five feet in a second, while the gazelle
lias shown measured speed of more
than eighty feet a second.
The gazelle, however, swift as she Is,
is not as swift as the ostrich, for that
homely but swift bird can run ninety
eight feet to the second when he really
gets down to It. But then he helps
himself along with his wings.
The whale, struck by a harpoon and
sounding in terror, lias been known to
dive at the rate of 300 yards in a
minute.
The Virginia ralnplper has made
measured flight's of 7500 yards a min
ute, and the European swallow has at
tained speeds of more than 8000 yards.
A species of falcon, known as the
wandering falcon, flies from Nortl
Africa to Northern Germany in one
unbroken flight, making the distance in

1 WISE WORDS.
It is not necessary for a man to be all
ice to avoid being nothing but steam.
Men who stop to review their benefits
get a good preview of coming blessings.
Some men fear they are losing their
religion because they are growing out
of their small clothes.
It Is not strange that the man who
makes his faith depend on his knowl
edge frequently exhibits innocence of
both.
The most successful man is not the
one that gets richest, but the one that
overcomes the most difficulties and suc
ceeds. Some people with smart clothes will
look worse off than the veriest beggars
when they have to stand out in the
clothes of character.
Every man is the architect of his
own fortune to the extent only that he
uses rightly those faculties with which
nature has endowed him.
The grentest hindrance to any reform
movement are the mossbacks within it
who can not be made to understand
that times change and we change with
them.
Look for things to be glad about In.
1st on being hnppy. It is your duty;
it costs effort but it pays. Happiness
comes only through making those
around you happy. Get the happiness
habit- without delay.
Then you think the Judge will be sat
isfied if you say: "Lord, I had so many
names in my visiting book, and so
many invitations I could no refuse,
that it was impossible for me to attend
to those things." George Macdonnld.
Happiness, after all, is a matter of
temperament. Schopenhauer says that
life is a mistake, and he proves it. Sir
John Lubbock says that life is a beau
tiful gift, and ho proves it All de
pends upon the temperament of the ob
server, and not upon the facts of the
environment
Just to be good, to keep life pure
from degrading elements, to make it
constantly helpful in little, ways to
those vho are touched by it, to keep
one's spirit always sweet and avoid all
manner of petty anger and irritability
that is an idea as noble as it is di Hi
cult. Edward Howard Griggs.
Return of the Crinoline.
Every now and then, ever since the
crinoline of the fifties and sixties of
the last century disappeared into the
limbo of lost fashions, a mysterious
whisper runs round the world of wom
an to the effect that crinolines arc
"coming in" again.
It has long been the fashion to re
gard those -curious cages as too un
speakably ugly to have any real chance
of resurrection. Nevertheless, the ru
mor is again going about that they nro
to be Imposed once more upon the fe
male form divine.
Mine. Sarah Bernhardt has been
speaking her mind thereupon, as was
only to be expected, for the great ac
tress is second only to the German Em
peror in her capacity for enunciating
an opinion upon anything and every
thing under the sun. Sarah does not
love crinoline, nor does Celine Cbnu
mont, who goes so far as to call it a
"disorganlzer of social life." On the
other hand. Mile. Sorel rather likes it,
and a to its being ugly, she remarks

ugly fashions for those who know how
to wear them." rail Mall Gazette,

At the biennial convention of the
Order of Railway Conductors, recently
held at Portland, Oregon, resolutions
were unanimously alopted voicing
their sentiments as to tt e effect of pro
posed railway rate legislation on life
1,300,000 railroad employes, whom they
in part represented. These resolutions
"Indorse t lie attitude of President
Roosevelt in condemning secret rebates
and other illegalities, and commend the
attitude of the heads of American rail
ways, who, with practical unanimity,
have Joined with the President on this
question." Tlr.y then respectfully
point out to Congress the "inadvlsabil
lty of legislation resting In the hands
of a commission power over railway
rates, now lower by far in the United
States than in any other country," be
cause such regulation would "result In
litigation and confusion and Inevitably
tend to an enforced reduction In rates,
irrespective of the question of the abil
ity of the railroads to (land the reduc
tion, especially in view of (lie Increased
cost of their supplies and materials."
They further protestci against such
power being given to the present Inter
state Commission because "the pro
posed legislation is not in harmony
wilh our Idea of American Juris
prudence, Inasmuch ns it contemplates
that a single body shall have the right
to investigate, indict, try, condemn and
then enforce its decisions at the cost
of the carriers, pending appeal, which
is manifestly inequitable."
The conductors base their demand
for only such legislation, if any, as
would "secure and insure justice and
equity and preserve equal rights to all
parties concerned" on the ground that
the low cost of transportation "is the
result of the efficiency of American
railway management and operation
which have built up the country
through constant improvement and de
velopment of territory, while at the
same time recognition has been given
to the value of intelligence among em
ployes in contrast to foreign methods,
where high freight rates and lowest
nages to employes obtain."
In pressing their claim against legis
lation adverse to their Interests, they
point out the fact that "the freight
rates of this country average only two
per cent, of the cost of tftleles to the
consumer, thus making tbn freight rate
so lusignlUcaut a factor In the selliig
price that numerous standard articles
are sold at the same price in all parts
of the country."
Farmers No Longer Lonely.
Conditions have changed In relation
to the farmer. No longer is he segre
gated from his fellows. His is not
now a condition of lrremedlnble lone
liness or Isolation. With the advent
of the Interurban trolley car, the tele
phone and the rural mall delivery the
entire condition of his existence has
changed. Today the farmer has his
dally newspaper, his added facilities
for correspondence, and his telephone
that brings him within speaking dis
tance of his neighbors ad the great
outside world. The nature of the farm
er has changed with the changed con
ditions that surround him. He has
become a business man who Is in con
stant touch with his markets and is
well versed In the varying circum
stances of trade in the commodities
that he produces. The old days of
loneliness are gone forever. The man
with the hoe hris triumphed at last.
He has come into his own. Kansas

To Prevent Emigration.
A bill has been Introduced In the
Hungarian diet the enactment of
which would do a great deal to keep
emigration within decent bounds. It
prohibits steamship companies from
employing emigration agents, abol
ishes emigration agencies and pun
ishes those who hold out inducements
to emigrate. If Immigration to this
country were confined to those who
come of their own enterprise it would
be desirable, as It would be a selec
