' Tobacco Is grown in several dis tinct districts in Kentucky, and thero, as elsewhere, each district has by reason of soil or climate a virtual monopoly of ita own type. Down in the southwestern corner, in the so called Black Patch, embracing sever al counties of Tennessee, a dark and heavy leaf is grown and fire-cured for the foreign trade. This is bought by government, or B'o-Btyled "regie" buyers. North of this Is a heavy leaf stemmed for the BritlBh trade. North and east of this is the region In which a dark air-cured leaf is grown for domestic uses. East of this, embracing all Blue Grass and extending to Maysville, Is the Burley district, In which is grown the famous red and white Burley tobaccos. Bur ley tobacco is a llsht, flne-fibered leaf, which has to a large degree the prop erty of absorbing licorice and other adulterants. It is, therefore, used for making sweet chewing tobaccos, plug, twist and fine-cut. Because of Its peculiar fitness for this the tobac co companies have for 40 or 60 years made use of It in this way, and the popular brands, which are assets of no mean value, are based upon the public taste for this manipulated Bur ley. J. L. Matthews, in Atlantic. 43 Gigantic Lemons. It is not regarded as a joke to be "handed a lemon" in some parts of Mexico, where this fruit growB to enormous Bize. To carry one of these monster lemons is no small task. These lemons do not bear shipment as well as those of the Smaller variety, but they are in much demand in the localities where they are grown. They are full of juice, and one of the larger size has been known to afford enough acid for a whole barrel of lemonade. These gigantic lemons are found growing wild in a remote part of Mexico sev eral years ago. Specimens of the tree were obtained and introduced in to other localities until the fruit is now becoming common. Experiments are now being made with the view of increasing the thickness of the rind and firmness of the fruit, with the view of giving the lemon more stable qualities for shipping purposes.

NOT A MIKACXE Just Tlaln Cause and Effect. There are some quite remarkable things happening every day, which seem almost miraculous. Some persons would not believe that a man could suffer from coffee drinking so severely as to cause spells of unconsciousness. And to find com plete relief In changing from coffee to Postum is well worth recording. "I used to be a great coffee drink er, so' much so that It was killing me by Inches. My heart became so weak I would fall and lie unconscious for an hour at a time. The spells caught me sometimes two or three times a day. "My friends, and even the doctor, told me It wag drinking coffee that caused the trouble. I would not be lieve it, and still drank coffee until I could not leave my room. "Then my doctor, who drinks Pos tum himself, persuaded me to stop coffee and try Postum. After much hesitation I concluded to try it. That was eight months ago. Since then I have had but few of those spells, none for more than four months. "I feel better, sleep better and am better every way. I now drink noth ing but Postum and touch no coffee, and as I am seventy yearB of ago all my friends think the Improvement quite remarkable." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. Ever reag the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They re genuine, true, and full of human Interest. The Flower Season. There is an invalid woman whose neighbor has for years, at Intervals of a few weeks, bought her a little pot of whatever growing flowers are in season. Watching flowers grow Is a constant joy to a sick person, and she says this choice of plant Is so much wiser than a bunch of cut flowers. Remember this the next time you are buying flowers for the sick. Indi anapolis News. A Gracious Queen. Just before Queen Alexandra left England on her recent continental trip she received a letter from Martha Mas sey, a servant girl who was lying 111 In St Luke's Hospital, London. The girl wrote that she was dying of con sumption, and the doctors had only given her a few weeks to live, and above all things she wanted to see the Queen before she died. Alexandra was so touched by the letter that she went to see her and took a present of fruit and flowers to her. Envelope Guards Against Meddlers. Thieves and "meddlers will have a hard time with a new envelope, made In Paris, if they try to seal it up again, after they have opened it, so that ifwill not have the appearance of having been tampered with. It Is really two envelopes. Each is of thin paper. One is a pronounced blue, the other lighter in color and different in texture. Each has a gummed flap. First the letter is placed in the dark blue envelope, which is slightly small"-" er than the other. This is not sealed, but is placed in the larger envelope and the inner flap brought outside and gummed down on the outside cover ing. The outer flap is much larger than the inner flap and reaches down to a good-sized star-shaped opening In the outer envelope through which shows the inner envelop. So, when the outer flap is sealed, it sticks not only to the outer envelope, but also, because of the opening, to the inner one. The letter is thus doubly sealed. New York Press. Women Swimmers. , Of the thirty-four starters in the life-saving corps endurance swim from the Brooklyn Bridge to Coney Island, the two women swimmers went the whole thirteen miles, though most of the men quit One of the women had never swum further than two miles be fore, but she finished fresh. Several of the men collapsed after finishing. Swimming is vigorous exercise. If the water is not too cold, it is the best kind of exercise. The chest mus cles are developed and their strength helps the lungs. The abdomen and back are strengthened. The support of the water lessens injurious Internal strains. Men have more strength than wom en, but women have more vitality than men. In swimming, the chill of the water tells more oh a man than on a woman. The same feminine quality that enables women to be superior to men in a dentist's chair helped Miss Gallup and Miss Hurst keep cheerful for five hours in the ocean. New York World. The Eldest Daughter. The taste laid upon the shoulders of the eldest daughter in homes where the children are many and the in come small, is sometimes an unduly hard one. The others' delinquencies are so of ten visited on her. She, while a little one herself, is blamed for not keeping the others out of mischief, and warn ed that she must always set a good example. The governess is shocked if a younger one docs bettej in any thing. And when she comes home from school people seem to expect, in spite of proverbs, an old head on young shoulders. Other girls are thinking of pleasure; there- are duties waiting for her du ties that are often difficult to do, be cause she has to tke mother's place without mother's authority. It is Alice here, Alice there, and Alice everywhere. "Oh, dear! Am I never to have any time of my own?" It's a difficult post, my dear, but it Is one of the finest in the world if you do your best to fill It properly. For, Bays Home Chat, with ajl these calls upon you, how can you help develop ing into a capable woman if you try? You have the -choice, you can chafe against it all and learn nothing, or you can put your back against it, and learn more than you ever learned at school of helpfulness and sympathy. Divinely Tall. Yesterday was marked by the num ber of tall individuals met in a brief stroll "downtown." Generally the average height Is maintained and ex tremes are too few to attract atten tion ; but it happened that giants were abroad, and the observing person took Dotes. Any man six feet tall with an Inch or two to spare Is- conspicuous, bpt when a woman towers to' that height she Is an object of comment, not only with her' own sex, but with the Other, gallant as it niayie. And yes terday there were three of her. At first It was 'imagined these three "di vinely tall" young women were the same, until chance brought two of them side by side at a silk counter, and then It was wondered If each was not consciously proud of her stature. for both carried their heads nigb. zsA both were beautifully dressed. But what pigmies they made of the crowd moving about them! No sooner had this lofty pair gone on than a third "six-footer" of the feminine gender was encountered. She was as hand some as she was tall, with splendid dark eyes, and her black draperies for she was not tailor-made bespoke foreign manufacture, and she, too, was head and shoulders above the men who passed her by. If one takes to counting his steps, or the people, short or tall, he meets, or doing any other silly thing after the manner of Dr. Johnson touching the Fleet street posts, he soon finds there is nothing peculiar in numbers, therefore giants may be only coming Into vogue, and we need not remark them any more. Boston Herald. She's A Don't Fretter. Is It not remarkable how unhappy are a lot of ought-to-be-happy persons? The women who get nervous prostra tion because they have nothing to do, and others who possess so much mon ey they become ill wondering what' they will do with it. That must be terrible. You and I and the woman next, who work Hike tinkers and who suppress a 6hriek at the sight of a postman for fear he has the ice bill, the rent bill, the water tax or the coal bill, we rath er" think we should like to fly our kites In that other atmosphere, just to see if it would make us also ill. Even the masses admit there are .many classes In the world: There aro the fretters and non-fretters; there are the thinkers, and non-thinkers; there are the dull wise and the happy fool ish. There are those who mount on Pe gasus and those who give him a nasty clip. There are the narrow minded who see ill in all things natural, and the broad-minded who go through life casting a beautiful radiance upon all persons within their circle. "Join the non-fretters, you won't re gret it," is the advice the anxious one needs. They are the only happy ones who "don't worry" about yesterday. Tiny have forgotten that It ever ex isted. Seldom do they fret about to morrow, because tomorrow may not reach them. Today they live. They may have their little annoyances; the world Is full of persons who won't sit still and hold their peace, but must be popping up and bursting, out with disturbing talk. The wise ones regard these as spring showers inconvenient, but of ten enjoyable because they make a change. The non-fretters do not stay awake nights for fear the cook will majte muf fins instead of corn bread for break 7ast. They are grateful for the muf fins. They don't get Into a stew and boil over because the yearly gown does not arrive in time for tho feast. The joy of trying It on is thus re served for the next day. We raise our brows and glance back ward at the horrible years when we carried all the world's worry on our shoulders and would not have Bmiled for a mansion and lot In heaven. What good did it do? The world waddled and toddled on at the same old gait, never changing step, and all we got for our trouble wa dyspepsia and falling hair. Just let the world and Its inhabitants take care of themselves. You look after little No. 1 and those who are near and dear to No. 1. ' Be just decent to your fellow beings. If you have a few lovely posies up your sleeve occasionally hand them out. Then be content calmly, respec tably content. New York Sun. Fashion Notes. High tan shoes will be fashionable this season. The vogue for Empire fashions- Is not confined wholly to gowns. The new shade of duck's w!ng and wistaria is expressed in many of this season's millinery designs. Linen and pique coat and ' skirt suits trimmed with wide bands of lace are among the smartest walking suits. Lace insertion borders the hem of the skirt as well as the edges of the coat and is seldom less than four inches wide. The classical Recamler scarf wound twice just below the bust and left to hang in loose "knotted ends at one side is one of the popular draperies. No longer Is plain stitching the prin cipal decoration of the tailor-made coat' Whether it be of cloth, linen, or silk. It is .trimmed either with braid or with straps or bands of different materials. With some of the handsomest lin gerie and lace robes seen at fashion able restaurants there have been di minutjve little bodices which seem to be made up of a draped sasb, veiled with white laco. Soutache braid enters into the com position of the new hats as a decora tion. Many of the latest models show a tam crown braided In rows, com pleted by a' brim of satin, and are to be had In black and colors. Of course, taupe. Is an unnatural color for flowers, but we have theru shaded In a single cluster from black to the lightest possible shade, and they blend beautifully with other flow ers and materials In the ' soft, old shades.

Sometimes It is a question whether the jury system furthers the opera tion of justice or hinders it. In an Ohio case recently the trial was halted because a juror announced from the box that he wouldn't believe the prosecuting, witness under oath because e was a drunkard. As this statement was said to prejudice the Jury it was excused, and the prisoner remanded to Jail to await a new trial. His attorneys are now trying to get the case dismissed on the ground that he has been placed once In Jeopardy and cannot be bo placed again. Thus, If the man is guilty, justice may be defeated, and If he is innocent, he is compelled to serve a term in prison which he does not deserve. Juror3 rarely recognize the importance of their acts, and, lacking the intelli gence to do this, it is sometimes ques tioned whether they possess enough Intelligence to be Intrusted with a man's life.
