Two Indiana Towns, Flftoen Kllaa Apart, Successfully Connected* An Anderson, Ind., correspondent writes: One of the most novel tele phone systems In the world Is the | "barbwlre" line, which connects the I towns of Anderson, Pendleton and In ! galls. It Is fifteen miles In length. Its | inventor, builder and sole owner, Cas- I sius Alley of Pendleton, Ind., now has ! six subscribers at SSO a year each. | The time is not far distant when there will be ten-fold this number. One [ clothing company at Anderson with branch stores at Pendleton, and the Wagner Glass Works, with offices at Anderson and factory at Ingalls, are using this barb-wire system in their business affairs exclusively. They use the line frequently. They can convert It Into a private line by plugs so ar ranged that when one party Is using the line he can cut out all others except In Mr. Alley's residence, which is used as a central station. It is no exag geration to say that this barb-wire telephone system is quite as satisfac tory as the copper circuit of the Bell. Ordinary phones are used with no special strength of battery and there Is very little trouble with tho linos. In constructing the lino Mr. Alley used tho top strand of the barb-wiro fence of tho Big Four railway, mak ing the connections with the offices of his subscribers with ordinary tele phono wire. In some instances where the posts had rotted it was necessary to paint the wire and posts with rub ber paint to Insulate the wire. The whole line of fifteen miles was built at a cost of about SIOO, and the outfit for each house, consisting of receiver, transmitter, battery, call, etc., costs not over $lO. The line has been in operation since December 22, and has not been out of order except for a few hours when a fast train on the rail way track struck a cow, threw her body against the fence and broke the wire. _ "How 110 Von rioT" The Germans say "Wie beflnden sie sieh?" (How do you find yourself?) or "Wie gehts?" (How goes it?); tho Dutch "Hoc vaart gij?" (How do you fare?); the Italians, "Come state (How do you stand?); the French "Comment vous portez-vous?" (How do you carry yourself?). In Spain, as in Germany, the usual greetings are "Como esta usted?" (How. are you) or "Que tal va?" (How goes it?). The Greeks say "Ti Kamete?" (What do you do?), while in China the expression is, "Have you eaten your rice?" In Rus sia. "Be well!" or "How do you live on?" and in Arabia, "May your morn ing be good!" or "God grant thee big favors." The Turk's greeting is, "Be under the care of God," and that of the Persians, "Is thy exalted condition good? May thy shadow never be less!" The briefest and at the same time most expressive salutation is the North American Indian's "How!"— Collier's Weeklyv Kissed Mr*. Cleveland'* Iland. "It has been my pleasure to meet newspaper reporters in all. the cities of America that I have visited since my residence In this country, and but once have I had any occasion to regret my contact with them," said Rt.

C., when, by somi chance that to me is still a dark and unfathomable mystery, a reporter learned that I was presented to Presi dent and Mrs. Cleveland, and that, ig norant of American customs, for it was the first time that I had been present ed to the executive of a republic, I went down on my knees before Mrs. Cleveland and kissed her hand. Imag ine my chagrin the next day, when, upon picking up the paper, my eye fell upon a headline reading. 'He Kissed Her Hand. A Titled Englishman Kneels Before Mrs. Cleveland.'

MAINE'S COSTLY CONFECTION IS SCARCE THIS SEASON. Hardship* of Gum fluitters—They lionm the Forest All Winter and Cut the Crop In Ounce Kits From High Krunclies—lt Pays Well For Some. THIS has been an off year for gum in Maine. Ordinarily the Maine supply of clear, pink, odorous and sweet spruce gum has been in the tons, and every ton of it is worth S2OOO at first hands. This year the supply of marketable gum will fall much below tlie average. This sad fact is not brought about by a dearth of gum so mneh as a lack of skillful harvesters. "Everybody is going into it," said a wholesale gum dealer in Bangor, Me., the chief gum market of the United States, "and the supply is not so good this year in consequence. They bring in all kinds of stuff, dirt and pitchy and full of black spots, and, of course, we can't buy it. We won't get the good, clear gum this winter we did last year on that account. "I remember," went on the gum dealer, as he leaned over the counter, "when gum gatherers came in here with from 400 to 500 pounds of gum to the man to sell after a winter in the woods. Every pound of it was worth a dollar, and that is just what I gave for it, right through. "This winter I haven't seen any of the kind of gnm we used to get; that is, not in quality. Last year I bought more than a ton of gum, and sent it out of the State. There is a good de mand for it, especially from the West, where there are Maine people in large numbers. I don't get a very big prof it out of it, for it retails at ten cents an ounce, all done up in a neat paste board box. Then, there is a shrink ago of ten per cent, on it, and the ad ditional loss from it becoming broken. After I have sold it to a middleman, say at $1.25 a pound, and ho sells it to tlie retailer, who can only get ten cents an ounce for it, you will see there is no great profit in it for any of us. IT IS IIARD TO COLLECT. "As for the man who gathers it," went on the gum dealer, "he earns his dollar a pound. I wouldn't clean tho stuff for that money. Every piece in it has to be handled, and most of it scraped with a knife to take off the rough outside. There is a good deal of waste in the cleaning. The best gum gatherers are those who know how to get clean gum, tho kind that does not require a lot of cleaning." Notwithstanding the difticulty in getting together 100 pounds of gnm, the dealer recalled that he bought on one occasion 998 pound?, of gum from two men, who had gathered it in a winter. They were Swede farmers from the vicinity of New Sweden, in northern Aroostook. Work is dull on the potato farms in winter, and tho thrifty .Swedes look around for a chance to make a dollar. Many of them go into the woods as lumber men. Some trap, while others gather gum. These two farmers netted $1 a pound for their gum. Only men of great patience and never-ceasing activity can gather near ly 500 pounds of gum in a winter. The task is one calling for almost incredi ble work. When one buys a little box of the pure, amber blood of the sprnce he little thinks of the patience that ha 3 been put into the work of gather ing it. The gnm gatherer begins his work in the fall, as soon ns the snow comes and makes traveling on foot in the forest easier than when the ground is bare, and he keeps at his task, day after day, in storm and shiue, until spring. now IT IE CATSERED. Living in a 1-ough camp, he walks forth M.to the trackless woods every at daylight, and keeps going until dark. He wears snowshoes, on ..'uich he skims the surface of the deep white carpet on the ground, making his way from tree to tree, his head up, scanning the brown trunks for the little drops of congealed sap that is known as spruce gum. An expert gum gatherer oan see gum on the trunk of a tree where the novice would see none. He UIBO knows at a glance whether a "teat" is worth taking off or not, and that when it is sometimes fifteen feet above his head. As it is impossible to reach most of the gum on forest spruces without some implement, the gum gatherer has a specially made gathering rod, with which he brings down the golden drops. This rod is generally in three sections, so that its length may be regulated to the height to be reached. On the end of the rod is a knife, and beneath it is n little pouoh, such as is used on a fruit picker, into which the piece of gum drops after being de tached from the tree by the knife. Aftor getting all tho gum on a tree, and there is seldom more than an ounce in the rough to be had from even the best gum trees, the gum gatherer goes on to the next tree yielding gum. Not all spruces yield gum. Many of tho trees have no gum on them at all until the bark becomes broken or there is some break around a limb, allowing the sap of the tree to exude and harden. Trees that have been trimmed of their lower branches are the best for yielding gum. Sections where lumbermen have "swamped" roads, or have been logging, are, therefore, better, as a rule, for the gum gatherer than the virgin forest, where the gum trees are farthest apart, and the gum hangs higher. WHERE THE BEST CROWS. There is a vast territory in Northern Maine from which gum comes, a region larger than the State of Massachusetts, covered by deep spruce forest, broken only by lakes and streams. Out of this region in the spring come many men beariug their packs of gum their backs. Others have combined with this work trapping fur bearing animals. A number of guides, who, in the fishing and hunting season traverse the woods with parties of sportsmen, devoto their winters to gathering gum. The life of the gum gatherer is necessarily a hard oue, as will be seen. It is also terribly lone&ome. All winter the man with the gum pack flits like a shadow from tree to tree, silently gathering gum, and having no com pany other than tho wild things in the forest, except, perhaps, at times when ho goes out to *OlllO settlement, walking twenty or thirty or forty miles on snow-shoes, to get provisions and perhaps get his mail from the little woodman's postofiice. But he sticks to it, does the guv man, and in the spring he "skuffs" down to Ban gor, there to market his gum, and perhaps indulge iu a few <?f tho fading joys of town. Such is tho story of gum, the kind of gum that makes the Yankee feel like going back borne whenever he smells it or takes a chow of it; the kind that puts to shame the sweetened confections made by machinery; in fact, the real spruce gum, that is as much a part of the resources of Maine as ice, or lumber, or granite, or pretty girls.—Boston Globe. A Solid Man. "Take a look at that man." Tho head ot the house hail just returned from the kitchen nnd was talking to an old friend whom he had left in the library. "Notice hiH carriage; head well back, step firm, shoulders squared and his whole air suggestive of important business. They just called me to see him. As a result he has a half dollar of my money, a hat nuil an overcoat that is yet good for a season or two." "Told a sad story, I suppose?" "Not specially sad, but it's his whole manner. He has the composite spirit of the warrior, philosopher and man of tho world. It is not oue man in twenty that gets better than a enrt dismissal from the woman in the kitchen. She declares that she can tell from a knock what kind of a ma:i is giving it. If it bo nervous, timid or vacillating, 'stammery,'as sho calls it, the applicant is sent about bis businesa before he can get his breath. AH the servants turn up their noses when they hear that weak aud flut tering request for au admission. "But this fellow swung around to the rear ns though he was going to storm the castle, gave a bold, auda cious knock as if with tho hilt of n sword, stepped inside as the door opened and asked in a commanding voice if the man of tho house was at home. 'Dou't disturb him till I get warm,'aud he pulled a chair to the side of the range, put his miserably shod feet into tho oveu aud asked if ho could glance over the morning paper. The pie smelted like tho pie he used to get at homo, aud they gave him a generous section to sample. He praised the roast till he got a slice, told the cook that she ought to set up ns au exclusive caterer aud the" asked for me. He did not whine o cringe, but talked just like a solid business man, looked me straight in the eves and captured the goods and chattels I've mentioned. That chap knows the world and can livo easier without work than you or I can with it."—Detroit Free Pross. Migratory lllrdg. The sole business of a migratory bird's sojourn in the land of us choice seems to be th" rearing of a family. This accom, isbed, the thoughts of the birds seem to turn immediately to the South—to the wnrm, fruitful, indolent latitude where harsh windn aud chilling rain* and fading leaves never benumb bright spirits. The conjugal ties break, fathers forsake mothers anil offspring, and the latter follow as fast ns strength pcrmitß. Thus again, as wave after wave sweeps down to us from Cauada, as if ou the wings of autumnal breezes, it is noticeable that old males are leading the hosts ot eaoh speoies, and that only later come females and young. I am careful tc make this matter of the succession of ages clear, because of noble signifi cance in the problem: How do birds find their way? The old answer was short and easy: Instinct tells them. This means, if it means anything, that a bird is born with an intuitive knowledge of a road he has never seen, perhaps crossing an oceau. Moreover, migration routes are rarely straight lines north and south, t which the little creatures might be kept by some mysterious "sense o: polar direction," but are usually some, what roundabout, often crooked an{ sometimes squarely east aud west fo; a large part of the course.—Ernest Ingersoll, in New Lippincott's. In Yorkuhlre. An English draper found a sixpencs on the floor of the shop. There waa nothing startling about this, but lilt* the shrewd man he was, he resolved to turn the incident to account, aud put a notice in his window to this ef feot: 1 A earn of money found in the ; shop on Tuesday last.

A touching incident, simple in its character, but invested with almost historical interest, marked the opening a couple of weeks ago of the first of the poor men's restaurants which the Prin cess of Wales has succeeded in estab lishing in London. No formal cere mony inaugurated the opening day's business at the establishment founded by the Alexandra Trust in the City road, London. Something much more telling than prosaic speeches, more Impressive than votes of thanlm, oc curred to draw attention to the cooked meals which are served at a cost be low anything previously attempted in London. One day the Prince and Prin cess of Wales, accompanied by the Hon. Sydney Greville, drove down tc the City-road on a surprise visit to the Alexandra restaurant. Luncheon tick ets were bought in the ordinary way at (9 cents) each. Whilst thou sands of toilers, workmen, factory girls, shop boys and needy clerks were consuming the luncheon provided in tho big dining halls, the royal visitors sat down to a similar meal in an ad joining room. There were six In the royal luncheon party. Three courses were served. The bill for the whole party came to 2s. 3d. (54 cents). Need less to say, the presence of the heir apparent and the princess in the res taurant was the occasion of a singular ly interesting demonstration on the part of the people. Alysterle* of • Toilet. Every man has a theory against and an apparent abhorrence of a woman's use of artificial means in the way of producing a bloomy complexion, and yet as surely as the needle to the mag net you will invariably find him gravi tating toward the girl or woman with a made complexion. The fact of the matter is men don't know face pow der and rouge when they see it, they are not prone to recognize it even on a face as near as that of their own wives. So despite that much is being said and more written about the lat ter day woman's frank use of rouge, powder and pencil, as long as one of her most appealing charms is vested in a rose and cream complexion, just so long will she make use of the means whereby to build it | 1900 | m There is every good Jk (j> reason why * I St. Jacobs Oil f jh should cure |j| | RHEUMATISM \ i NEURALGIA j I LUMBAGO I I SCIATICA | i|> for the rest of the "century.
