lifts! Triumph Which Came to the Dying
Funny Man.
The funny raan, whose business it
was to construct the weekly page of
jokes for tho Sunday Yell, lav on a
hospital oot swathed in bandages, re
lates the Cincinnati Enquirer.
He was not long for this earth.
Early that morning he had tried con
clusion with the front end of an elec
tric car, with the usual results. Tho
fuuny man's lips moved and he mut
tered incoherently. A hospital in
terne stepped softly to the side of the
sufferer's cot and bent his head for
ward to listen.
"X care not to live," murmured the
jokist. "The one light in my dreary
existence went out last week when
my preoious one passed away from
this earth."
"Yes?" said the young surgeon in
terrogatively.
"3he is dead," continued the dying
man. "During her lifetime we lived
together at the same hoarding house.
She did society for the Yell and wrote
poetry for the Sunday issuo, which
effusions sho signed lolanthe. I
called her Io for brevity."
"Indeed?" said the surgeon softly.
"Last week," went on the profes
sional jokist, "she nttended a wedding
in a cold, damp church, wrote an ac
oount of the ceremony for the Yell,
came home and was taken ill. Two
days later she died and left me in
despair. Ah! Swoet Iol"
The surgeon, visibly affected by the
sufferer's tale, could but restrain his
own emotion.
"Very sad," ho murmured in the
dying man's ear. "What did Io
die of?"
A light of triumph came for one
brief instant in the joltor's fast dim
ming eyes as he answered, "lodide
of potasium," and ho passed away be
fore the startled and enraged surgeon
could jump with both feet on his face.
The Lnnccn' Cliurgo ut Oiudiirmaii. j
A splendid charge of tho Twenty
first Lancers has been singled out for
speoial praise, by universal consent;
and with excellent reason, because, to
speak truth quite plainly, it was a
couspiouous demonstration of pure
bravery on a day which gave the hon
ors, so far as courage alone is con
sidered, aside from achievement and
organization and equipment, to the
barbarians. The Dervishes got twelve
or fifteen thousand of themselves
killed, and never fliuched; again and
again, from sunrise to high noon, thej
charged with mounting fervor; not
upon an enemy that they had a fair
prospect of routing—no, but upon
Death itself made visible. The Twen
ty-first Lancers, however, when they
were caught in a position for which
neither rule nor plan provided, did
develop nu instinctive joy in an un
equal fight for the fight's own sake—a
courage like Beowulf's. They also
could be savages at a pinch.
The orders to Colonel Martin, who
commanded the regiment, were to pre
vent the Dervishes from returning to
the city. Now, in their zeal, they
fixed their attention upon a small body
of the enemy, about three hundred,
and overlooked three thousand hidden
in a ravine. Biding ahead so intently,
they rode straight into the ambush.
It was not then a question of turning
the Dervishes: they must get back
themselves: they must go through.
And so they did, plunging, slashing,
thrusting till lances broke, shooting—
employing every trick of horseman
ship, using everyjweapou, laying about
them with bent sword or stump of
lance—until they got through.
And then they wanted to go back
and through once more.—Harper's
Weekly.
They Adopt Telegraphic Typewriter.
An invention recently exhibited at
a conversazione of the Boyal Sooiety
seems likely, so far as private house
to-house calls are][ooncerned, to su
persede the telephone. This contriv
ance is a telegraphic recorder, with
out a battery, invented by a Mr.
Stelges. It requires no skill, and
typewrites the messago on the desk of
the reoeivcr, while retaining an identi
cal copy in the hands of the sender.
It is such a revolution in telegraphy
that the Postofflce, on the advice of
Mr. W. H. Preece, lias adopted it, and
will install it wherever required by
the public at a Bmall cost. The Home
Secretary has just sanctioned its in
troduction to Sootland Yard.
The now telegraphy transmits a
message or signal, and makes a"per
manent and indisputable record of the
order sent, and the fact that it is inde
pendent of batteries will make it very
useful in warm olimates. For Mr,
Rhodes, in his Cape Town to Cairo
oouneotion, this should prove most
valuable, and it is understood that
Jameson's present visit to this coun
try is concerned with securing the
concession for Africa.—London Mail.
Mlßforlunes In Battalions.
Misfortunes have fallen very heavily
on a married couple at Midhurst,
whose family cau certainly lay claim
to an unenviable record for broken
legs, etc. Of the family, Emma
(eighteen years) broke her leg and arm
when ten; Harry J(tliirteen) diseased
hip-bone, obliged to use crutches;
Charles (ten) both legß broken; Nelly
(eight) leg broken, lame at the'preseut
time; and Annie (six) has broken her
right leg twice, her hip once, and her
left leg once. In respect to the last
named, an application was made to the
Midhurßt Board of Guardians at their
meeting yesterday for her to be sent
to hospital in London for further medi
cal treatment, and this request was
acceded to. This is not all, for when
but ten years of age it seems that the
mother broke her leg and collar-bone
at one nnd the same time. The bread
winner of the family earns $3.50 a
week, and, to his credit be it said, he
has never previously applied to the

FARMHOUSE INDUSTRIES
A LEACUE OF WOMEN TO CREATE A
MART FOR RURAL MANUFACTURES.
Tlie Great Object of the Organization Is
That Farmers' Wives anil Daughters
May Find Interesting Work For
Drenry Winter Duys and Nights.
Tho League of Farmhouse Industries
find Domestic Manufactures is a new
idea in America. It owes it origin
perhaps more to the work of the Irish
League of Industries than anything
else, and the success of which was so
wonderfully shown in Chicago at the
time of the world's fair. And even
now the outcome of it all can still be
seen in the beautiful things of Irish
domestic industry shown in the shop
ping district. The fondness of a cul
tured woman for Irish linen, Irish lace
or for anything distinctly French or
Italian is a twice told tale, and the
crnze of the Russian fashion is still
abroad in the land.
Why, then, in the face of all this
enthusiasm for foreign make, is there
nothing to show in return, for there
are American industries of a domestio
natnre. Hitherto these products of
the farmhouse and cottage are a source
of national wealth rather overlooked.
There is in the handiwork of indi
viduals an interest and attraotion not
found in mechanical manufactures. It
is this interest which induces the
traveler to buy the peasant carvings of
Switzerland, the scarfs of Rome, the
silk blankets of Italy and the home
spun and embroidered linens of Russia,
Sweden and Hungary. The farm
houses of this country are scattered
over a vast area, having every variety
f soil and climate, and the opportu
nities of varied and extensive domes
tie manufactures are very great. Natur
ally, therefore, the fostering and di
recting of such industries becomes of
interest and concern to every pro
gressive American woman.
Organizations will in time bo formed
lu eaoh city and oommunity of the dif
ferent States, whoso purposes will be
to create home industries adapted to
tho locality, as well as to perfect any
existing industry and cultivate its
scope. It is really making a practical
use of knowledge gained through travel
and self-culture.
The blue and white industry of
Deerfield, Mass., is on instance. This
is a reproduction upon homespun lineu
of the old crewel embroideries of col
onial times, and has given tho farm
er's wife there an occupation tor her
winter days. Much pleasure can be
derived from the such work, and it
brings in money where profits aro
Bmall and money hardly earned. Al
though the bine and white embroid
eries have not been forced upon the
attention of the publio, their sale is
constant and sustained. This enter
prise was started by a few intelligent
and sympathetic women for the bene
fit of a large and widely scattered com
munity, and has proved to be a sigual
success.
Just at this present time, if the
women members of every golf club,
whether in the East, West, North or
South, would nudertake to interest
the womon in the neighborhood near
or distant in the knitting of golf
waistcoats and stookings, a valuable
industry wonld be established, which
oould be made more valuable by
adopting for them distinctive colors
nnd giving them a distiotive name.
Immediately a specialty of golf knit
tings would be established for that
neighborhood, and if the wool could
be grown, spun and dyed in the same
locality, it would still further add to
the value of the industry. The goods
could be ordered through the women
promoting the work, and in this way
every center of demand would be put
in communication with a center of sup
ply. Experience, taste and art can
always be brought to bear upon inex
perienced work to make it more at
tractive to the public. This and
intercourse between the producers
and the buyers would create an evor
inoreasing demand for homemade
manufactures.
If Navajo blankets and Alaskan
grass weavings can hold a deserved
place in oommerce, it would seem that
the wider range of farmhouse produc
tions should easily engage the atten
tion of organized bodies of the women
in this country. In furtherance of
this projeot, such an organization has
been formed in the State of Illinois
and incorporated under the name of
the "League of Farmhouse Industries
and Domestio Manufactures," and is
located in Chicago, and success will
undoubtedly crown its efforts.
One other great object also of this
work is that farmers' daughters may
find interesting work at home and not
feel that they must go to the crowded
eity for employment. As soon as pos
sible rooms will be opened to provide
a market for the work, and merchants
have kindly offered to take any goods
for which there is a sale. In these
rooms will be posted the names and
addresses of those who do the differ
ent kinds of work, and there will be a
pamphlet of models of patterns for
quilts, rag carpets and suoh homely
work that all may copy. Subcommit
tees will be formed in every small
town in the State with a local chair
man, who will look to the forwarding'
of the work, and in due season teach
ers will be sent out from headquarters
to look after all those who need in
struction.
Two years ago this work was started
in New York by Mrs. Candaco Wheeler,
and last spring saw the beginning oi
the good work in Illinois. Tho an.
nnal dues for membership are sl, and
no initiation fee is required.—Chicago

BIG POWER IN LITTLE WATER.
A. Little Brook Can He Marie to Giro Up
Light anrl Power.
The ease with which small streams
of water can be turned to account for
supplying electric light and power i 3
well illustrated in an installation
whioh has been completed at a sani
tarium in the heart of the Suliivau
County Mountains, where a saving iu
fuel would naturally be of exception
able desirability. A brook which
flows through the property is part of
the headwaters of the Delaware Biver.
It has a fall of seventy feet on the es
tate, but it is at best an exceedingly
small stream. Iu order to get tho
water storage it was necessrry to build
a dam 250 feet across and twenty feet
high. This made a basin of a mile in
area, and holds water enough to run
the entire plant flfty-two days without
rain. The dam was- built entirely of
stone hewn on the site. The sanitar
ium consists of six large frame build
ings, built on various hills, and in
cluded in a radius of half a mile. Not
only are these buildings generously
lighted within, but the grounds and
works are studded with 100-hour long
burning arcs, and the tourist coming
suddenly on this distant mountain
nook could imagine himself in a city
suburb. The plant is running so suc
cessfully that it would seem worth the
while of any large institution or others
requiring light and power to investi
gate any water power—no matter how
unpretentious—in the vicinity. Such
an installation as that mentioned
Bhonld, with ordinary management,
very quickly pay for itself in the sav
ing of fuel and other advantages.
All Right Again.
"You can bet that times are im
proved in our place," answered the
man from an upper peninsula city in
reply to an inquiry made by a whole
saler with whom he was doing busi
ness in the city.
"A man who has sense and keeps
his eyes open can tell whether the
financial strain is loosening up or not.
When I see a woman buying two
dresses where she used to buy one,
and getting a little better material at
that, I know that things are easier at
her house, and when this greater lib
erality becomes general, it is plain
that the whole community is better
off. It is just as simple as watching
the flying straws to tell which way
the wind is blowing.
"Another leaf out of my philosophy
is to keep track of the amusements.
They are in the nature of luxuries,
and when they don't draw you need
not have the least hesitancy in man
aging your affairs as though money
was close and collections hard. But
we're all right on that score, too.

Had Fail With a Landsman.
The sailor man, when in deep
water, cannot conceal the feeling of
superiority with which he regards the
nntarred landlubber. Some of the
non-oombatants who sailed the Gulf
and the Oaribbean during the war
learned to keep an eye on the
mariners, and others gained painful
experience before they got their sea
legs.
An artist who boarded a grimy tug
boat clad in white linen found his
coat covered with coal dust when he
was a day from port and decided to
wash it. He filled a bucket with sea
water and fell to work. When he
had scrubbed the garment for twenty
minutes he was satisfied.
Then it ocourred to him to search
tho coat pockets. He did so, and
pulled out—his gold watch.
He was perturbed. The crew
laughed and he rebuked them. They
bided their time. Then one of them
told the artist that the proper way to
restore the coat to its normal color
was to tie a line to it, heave it over
board and tow it for a few hours. The
artist did so.
When he went below a deck hand
hauled the coat aboard, untied the
line and hiding the coat made fast a
ragged pieoe of white duck and threw
it overboard.
When the owner of the coat pulled
in his line he was the angriest man on
the tug. And he didn't know just
how to accept a deck hand's glibly
made explanation, which was that a
shark had seized the coat, until the
garment was restored to him.—New
York Herald.
Stitching: a Lion's Tail.
Some of the animals in the Zoo in
Glasgow have, it seems, recently had
mishaps and have had to be patched up.
During the settlement of certunn small
differences with one of his fellows a
lion had the misfortune to have his
tail badly torn, and Dr. J. McCall, of
the Royal Veterinary College, was
called |'-a. The legs of the lion were
secured, and the tail was put between
the bars of the cage, so that the sur
geon could perform tho necessary op
eration from the outside. Eight
stitches were put in, and the tail was
then bandaged. Dr. McCall has also
had to attend to the baby elephant,
who, in some mysterious fashion, had
broken its leg. The animal was put
- tn • sling, splints were applied to tha
broken limb and "Baby" is now on the
way to recovery.—New York Herald.

"It's no ufie talkln'," said Mr. Corn
tossel as he knocked the ashes out of
his pipe. "This gover'ment ain't run
right." "What's the matter?" asked
the neighbor. "There ain't enough peo
ple to do the work. They're tryin' to
put too much on to the war depart
ment. When It yas decided to have a
war the war department applied fur
men an' got 'em; It went ahead an*
licked the Spaniards an' wound tho
business up in a few months. War
was easy. But if they want to open up
an office that won't have anything but
buay days an' all kinds of trouble, let
'em make arrangements fur a peace
department."--Cleveland Leader.
Lazy Liver
11 1 have been troubled a great deal
with a torpid liver, which produces constipa
tion. I found CASCAKETS to be all you claim
for them, and secured such relief the first trial,
that I purchased another supply and was com
pletely cured. I shall only be too glad to rec
ommend Cascarets whenever tho opportunity
Is presented." J. A. SMITH.
