Visiting cards difier in style accord- ing to latitude, and as an ezample a Paris contemporary recalls an incident in 1844 when M. de Lagrene was sent under Louis Philippe as minister ex- traordinary to China. The courtesy of the ambassador greatly impressed the Chinese statesmen, particularly their “doyen.” When the negotiations had been completed and M. de Lagrene was ready to embark a delegation brought him a great roll of paper. The ambas- sador seeing this parcel at once thought this was a present, knowing Chinese methods, but to his surprise they start- ed to unroll the cylinder, which extend- ed to about fifty meters of paper, over 162 feet. Then he learned that it was the visiting card of the ‘‘doyen.” In returning his modest little bristol board the humiliated ambassador add- ed a few words, which read, “The am- bassador of France regrets that he is able to offer only these simple words to your excellency.” The Building of Homes. Dwelling houses may be constructed of anything from paper to concrete. When built of paper they consist of ground plans, front elevations and mortgages. When “they progress to something more substantial they do not resemble in any way the front ele- vation or the ground plan of the paper stage and are therefore disappointing in these particulars. The mortgage, however, always comes up to expecta- tions. The houses of the elect may be distinguished by the butler’s pan- try, the middle classes by the recep- tion hall and those of the hoi polloi by the parlor. Houses are useful to eat in, sleep in, bathe in, dress in, hide in, be seen in, die in, store junk in, in- sure and burn down. Dignity in houses is typified by a parking in- closed English country place, romance by a southern planter’s mansion, poetry by a rose embowered cottage and hu- mor by a modern flat.—Life. Serpents and Music. Barnard concludes from his person- al observation of cobras in Ceylon, says the Scientific American, .that the serpent’s traditional love for music is a pure fable and that the only ef- fect of music is to arouse the reptile’s curiosity, which is excited by any loud and acute sound. The cobra protrudes its head from its burrow alike on hear- ing the snake charmer’s flute, the rat- tling of a chain and the sounds made by beating the ground with a switch. It appears to perceive only sounds of high pitch. for it pays no attention to the low notes of the flute or the beat- ing of the drum. Barnard also con- firmed, in Ceylon, the results of ob- servations made in the London zoolog- ical garden on the supposed power of fascination exerted by serpents upon birds, and he concludes that this pow- er of fascination is also purely imag- inary. Experience Teaches. She—Dearie, shall I learn to make biscuits the way your mother used to make them? He (with a shudder)— No, darling. She used to beat ’em, and my poor father always thought that was how she developed her mus- cle.—Exchange. When your feet are wet and cold, and your body chilled through and through from exposure, take a big dose of Chamberlain’s Cough Rem- edy, bathe your feet in hot water be- fore going to bed, and you are al- most certain to ward off a severe cold.

Thejextreme clumsiness and cruelty with :which operations were performed even ‘subsequent to the fifteenth cen- tury would scarcely be credited had we not authentic descriptions of them by the operators. Thus Fabricius of Aqua- pedents (1537-1619), the eminent pro- fessor at Padua and preceptor of the immortal Harvey, describes what he considered an improved and easy op- eration in the following terms: “If it be a movable tumor I cut it away with a redhot knife that sears as it cuts, but i 1t be:adhered to the chest I cut with- out. bleeding or pain with a wooden or horn knife soaked in aqua fortis, with which. having cut the skin, 1 dig out the rest with my fingers.” When the surgeons of Edinburgh were incor- pqmge‘d it was required as a prereg- uisite'that they should be able to read and write, “to know the anatomie, na- ture and complexion of everie mem- ber of humanis body and likeways to know all vaynes of the same, that he may make flewbothemie in due time.” Buying a Dog. Buying a dog is uot so easy as it looks, there is so much “faking.” A good Irish terrier, for instance, should have a stiff, wiry coat, a pronounced red color, a long, narrow head, small eyes and ears which hang down. The | ears of a bull terrier, an Aberdeen terrier or a Yorkshire “terrier should stick up. But be careful that the wily dealer has not produced this effect with ‘cardboard. A bulldog should have a shovel shaped mouth, with the under jaw protruding upward, and a wide chest. There are one or two things to look out for in buying a-dog. Some dealers try to palm off an old dog 4s a young one by scraping his yellow teeth, which show signs of age, Sekneider and painting his gray muzzle. Bright eyes are often produced by a smear of vaseline and a cold nose produced by Stockholm tar. But you can detect the presence of these aids by smell.— Chicago Record-Herald. A Battleship’s Eyes. In the design and equipment of Un- cle Sam’s newer battleships no feature is more noticeable than the facilities afforded for observation by the officers and men stationed on the bridge—ob- servations of the beacons. and other aids to navigation, but more especially observations of the movements of a supposed enemy. On the bridge and ou the “fire control” tower overhead are to be found artificial aids for the “eyes of the battleship,” ranging all the way from old fashioned glasses to the powerful telescopes and kindred annihilators of distance that are too large to be supported at arm’s length and manipulated after the fashion of the spyglasses of the ancient mariner. —Detroit Free Press. | They Were Picked. “Do you call this a band of picked musicians?”’ said the hotel manager to the leader of a band. . “Ach! Dot vos so. I bick ’em mine- sellef,” replied the bandmaster. “Well, then, you picked them before they were ripe.” | The quicker a cold is gotten rid of the less the danger from pneumonia and other serious diseases. Mr. B. W. L. Hall, of Waverly, Va., says: “I firmly believe Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy to be absolutely the best preparation on the market for colds. I have recommended it to my friends and they all agree with me.” |For sale by Barker’s Drug Store. Every family has need of a’ good, reliable liniment.
