The great body of water which gave the name to Tarpon Nprings, Fla., is classed by all of the old citizens ax bottomles: The center appears to be a hole curbed with jagged rocks. Sometimes the weight has lodged and then dropped on to the extent of {he sounding line afterward. Many citi- zens say that they know the depth to be in es ol 700, 800 and 900 feet. Once when a depth of 200 feet was reached an obstruction was encounter- ed; then it was dislodged, dropped on farther, and the line broke. A very heavy weight has to be used on :e- count of the depth, and when divers are sent down in the springs, as (hey have been recently. they report the same great jagged hole, which, so far as they can find out withont bot tom. The spring is supposed to be the principal ontlet of that beantiful TLake Butler which lies a mile st of the town. Tidewater comes up into the spri and it has acquired the name because it was the play: ground of the silvered king of fish, the tarpon.—Manufacturers’ Record. Preferred to Be a Quack. A quack at a falr near Parls was | driving a roaring trade selling nos- trums, drawing teeth and beguiling the crowd in the usual ways, says the British Medical Journal. The letter of the French law against unqualified practice is very strong, though owing to the indifference of the magistrates it is mnot strictly carried out. This, however, was a particularly flagrant case, and the police felt compelled to intervene. The quack was therefore accosted by the guardians of the law. taken to a tent at the back of his stand and requested to show his diplo- ma. To the stupefaction of the gend- armes he exhibited a perfectly au- thentic degree of doctor of medicine of the University of Paris. They were profuse in their apologies, which the doctor cut short with an urgent en- treaty that they should say nothing about what they had seen, “for,” he said, “if the people know that T am a qualified doctor I shall have no more customers.” A Marvel of Insect Mechanism. The sting of a certain Indian fly of- fers as marked an example of design in nature as can well be imagined. When seen through a magnifying glass it is found to be composed of three sharp blades folded into one with their cutting edges outward and run- ning down to one fine point. When the fly inserts this up to the hilt in its victim the three blades fly apart, and then it is seen that each inner edge is a Dbeautiful saw, worked by six sep- arate muscles, so that when with- drawn the instrument rips its way out with a gush of blood. But now comes the most curlous provision of all. It would not do to fold up these blades with the blood adhering to them, so each blade is provided at its base with a fine brush of hairs growing out of an ofl gland, which provides an anti- septlc secretion to keep the blades clean. Deep Mourning. The manager of the theater racked his brain in vain. “We must do something,” he repeat- ed bitterly. *“People will expect us to do something to show respect to the proprietor now that he is dead.” “Shall we closé for the night of the funeral?” suggested the assistant stage manager. ' “With this business? You're a fool, laddie. a fool. No; put the chorus im black stockings.” And it was even so.—Sporting Times.

Silent Lawyers. It is almost & maxim nowadays that a lawyer's real importance at the bar s in Inverse ratio to his promincuce in the papers. The truth is that law-| yers of great importance seldom now-| adays appear in court. In the old days the great lawyer was the eloquent lawyer; today the great lawer is the | stlent one. Then bar reputations were made lterally at the bar. Today they are made in the offices of the sky serapers neighboring on Wall street In England a visit any day to the law courts will be repaid by the sight of some famous K. C. assisting the court | in a dramatization of the trial chapter from “Alice In Wonderland." But you might prowl for a month within the precincts of the New York courthouse without encountering a lawyer whose name would signify anything remsrk able to the historlan of the New York bar.—American Magazine. Curious Justice. A Parls contemporary gives us a glimpse of the administration of jus- { tice among the natives in the Lower | Niger territory, which for its efficacy | migh be compared with Swift's ac-| count of the means adopted by judi- cial authorities in Laputa, we believe, to discover conmspirators. If a native is accused of theft the heads of the village make a decoction of herbs and put into the essence about a grain of ground pepper. The lquid is then lightly applied to the eyelid. If the suspect weeps he is considereu guilty. But the murder test is an improve- ment upon that of theft. The “wise man” of the district draws a vessel of water, into which he puts some poison. Then he takes a cow's tail and “as-; perges” the eyes of the supposed as- sassin. If the man becomes blind he is pronounced a murderer. ! | For Testing Gold. The acid used hy jewelers for testing gold s extremely powerful and has to be very carefully handled. To pre- vent any considerable quantity of the acid being spilled a specially construct- ed bottle is employed. The stopper of this s made of glass and contains a long pointed glass rod which passes down the center of the bottle. When an article of jewelry is to be tested the stopper is simply removed, and the article is touched with the point of the “glass rod to which a very slight quantity of acid has adhered. Gold is not affected by the acld, but imitation metal turns green. | One Way to Arbitrate. Commodore Vanderbilt used often to | arbitrate his tenants’ disputes, and one day two farmers called on him in his function of arbitrator. The commo- dore before consenting to act put to the first tenant the necessary question: “Now, Henry, if I consent to arbi- trate will you abide by my decision?” The farmer, a hard headed old fel- low, answered thoughtfully: ““Well, commodore, I'd like to know what it is first.” 3 A Cruel Apologist. “Mr. Bliggins takes himself very se- rlously,” said the critical young wo- man. “Well,” replied Miss Cayenne, ‘you can’t blame him. To be thrown into a cruel world with no more bralns than he-possesses would be a serious mat- ter for anybody.”—Washington Star. Her Tact. Howard—Did she refuse you, old man? Coward—Well, in a dellcate, in- difect way. She told me she never wanted anything she could get easily How a Great Surgeon Disd.

When the World Was Drunk. Nowhere in all the world today éan be found as many confirmed drunk- ards as there were among the Thra- | the Celts or the | cians. the Iberians, Scythians. The man who didn't get drunk every day or two was regarded | as queer. The Greeks were moderate drinkers until they began to copy the luxury of the Persian feasts. The Ro mans imitated the Greeks.

E. Williams, Middleboro, Ky. “Two packages of Chamber- lain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets cured me.” For sale by Barker's Drug Store. Shekels and Half Sheke!s. The early Biblical reterences to pleces of silver do not in the original convey the idea of coins. but of weights. shekels. The Mosaic “obla- tion to God™ was a bhalf shekel. and the shekel 1s explained by Josephus as equal to four Athenian drachmae of the value of about {i5% cents in Amert can money. The first Jewish coinage under authority was, it is believed, struck by Simon, the Maccabee, about the year 140 B. C. It consisted of shekels and half shekels. This coin- age had its value signiied upon it. “Sheke! Israel,” in Samaritan charac- ters.

Speed. { Two wildwged horses, wearing dilap- itnted harness and drawing a battered dvulivery wagon, stopped at the stable door. “Just had.a runaway!" panted the driver. “Then, for. heaven’s sake, don't put those horses in with the other horses that will soon go out on a trip,” said the head hostler. “If you do they'lV run away too.

She was fashionably dressed and gave out the perfume/ of violets as the brakeman turned to help her up the steps of the train which was due to leave. Turning tor her maid, she said: “Oh, I must kiss: Ethel goodby!” “Oh, go on,” said the fresh brake- man. “T'll kiss Ethel goodby.” “No, you won’t, either,” came from the woman. “That preclous dog was never kissed by a stranger in her whole life!"—Yonkers Statesman. Sensible Course. “Why do you insist on that boy's studying music?” sald the man with respect for art. “You know very well | he can’t sing.” 5 “Yes,” replied the patient father; “I. know it. And I want him to learn: enough about music to realize it for] himself.”—Exchange. 1 Another Viewpoint. - | Clara—I overheard Mn Bimberly say¥ Shooting Stars. Astronomers estimate that about 150,000.000,000 of shooting stars reach this earth in the form of meteorites or dust every year.. Of course shooring stars in reality are not stars at all; they are little cosmic particles, often welghing much less than one ounce and composed mostly of ‘iron and car bon. Most of them travel around the sun in the same fashion that comeis do. following very flattened elliptical trajectories. . Sometimes it happens that the trajectory of some of these bodies cross the trajectory of our own earth. If the little meteorite and the earth get to that point at the same time they naturally collide. These planetoids -are not luminous in them- selves. ether (which is utter nothingness) there is no friction; therefore no heat and no light. But as soon as they enter the atmosphere with which our globe is surrounded their speed is so great that the friction against the air immediate- ly lights and volatilizes them.—New York World. Train, Your Breathing. “If one.learns to breathe properly when young he finds the benefit of it in middle and old age,” said a physi- cian. N “You will notice that when a middle aged man gets into a train he holds his breath and then grunts loudly as he sits down. This is a stupid practice. It throws a terrific strain on the heart and may even burst a blood vessel in the lungs or the brain. Many of those sudden deaths we hear of are due to holding the breath while making a vio- lent effort. Only the trained athlete is usually free from this fault. Athlete or not, every one should practice easy and regular breathing. If it cannot be managed with closed mouth then the mouth should be opened when per- forming such operations as lifting a ‘weight, running upstairs, stepping into a rajlway carriage, and the like. You may add years to your life by this lit- tle precaution.—London Globe. A Heartless Father. “I need some help with my house- hold duties,” announced a Malden wo- man when her husband came home the other night. “What's the matt~r with our daugh- ter?” the husband wanted to know. “Our daughter?

Modern “Dew Ponds.” The ancient “dew ponds” of Eng- land have their modern counterparts on’ the rock of Gibraltar, where drink- ing water 1s obtained by the conden- sation of the abundant dew in espe- clally prepared basins. The primitive process copsists In making a hollow in the ground and filling the bottom with dry straw, over which is placed a lay- er of clay. On a clear night the clay cools very rapidly, and the dew is con- densed. into water in the basin. The pond is improved by putting a layer of asphalt or portland cement under the straw. At Gibraltar the present prac- tice is to use wood instead of straw and sheet iron instead of clay. Electric Centipedes. Least attractive among the insects which give light are the so called “electric centipedes,’ black crawlers with many legs which have been liken- ed to serpents’ skeletons in miniature. They move in a snakelike fashion, for- ward or backward, leaving bebind them a bright track of phosphoric light. However, they are most accustomed to appear in the daytime, when the il- Jumination they afford is uot visible.— London Times. Made the Cannon Balls Fit. The first battle of the war of 1812 was fought at Sacketts Harbor, July 9, [ 1812, and consisted of an attack made upon the village. The inhabitants had but one gun of sufficient size and strength to inflict damage, a thirty-two pounder, for which they had mo shot. ‘This difficulty was overcome by the patriotism of the housewives, who tore up carpets from the floors and with strips wound the small balls to fit the cannon.

It was not always perfectly clear at first thought just what Ben Caldon meant when he spoke. The best a hearer could do was to guess at the most obvious meaning and let it go at that. In the matter of a captive moose, which belonged to Ben, the doctor fol- lowed this course. The moose was undoubtedly sick, and a veterinary had been summoned to attend him. Ben went out to the pen to assist the doe- tor. “Is he mortal, doc?’ asked Ben with extreme concern. b “Are you asking if he is sick?’ haz." arded the doctor. “Sure,” replied Ben, “only I meant 1s he goin’ to dle from 1t?” - “It's too soon to tell you yet,” re- plied the doctor, “but he has pneumo- nia pretty badly.” Ben’s eyes grew round. with surprise. Pneumonia in his experience had been confined to humankind. “Why, doc,” he burst out, “does a moose have features like a grown per- son?’—Youth’s Companion. Found a Way to Help. A worthy old Quaker who lived in a country town in England was rich and benevolent, and his means were put in frequent requisition for pur- poses of local charity or usefulness. The townspeople -wanted to rebuild their parish church, and a committee was appointed to raise funds. It was agreed that the Quaker could not be asked to subscribe toward an object 80 contrary to his principles; but then, on the other hand, so true a friend to the town might take it amiss if he was not at least consuited on a mat- ter of such general interest. So one of their number went and explained to him their project; the old church was to be removed and such and such steps taken toward the conmstruction of a new one. “Thee wast right,” the Quaker said, “n supposing that my principles would not allow me to assist in build Ing a church. But didst thee not say something about pulling down & church? Thee may'st put my name down for a hundred pounds.”—Meri- vale’s “Historical Studies.” First Aid. Speaking of the necessity for wide spread education fn first aid to tue injured, the St. Louis Times says: “Perhaps it will not be taken am if we call attention to the obvious fact that nine-tenths of all the trouble in the world is due to ignorance of cer tain simple things. It might even be said safely that all mishaps of what ever kind—me tal, physical and spirit ual—are due to a want of experience and training. Accidents of a thon sand varleties, from drowning to the taking of a dose from the wrong bot tle, are in a majority of cases fatai simply because there was not preseni some one who knew what to do. In juries which almost tear the body to pieces are curable If *he man of train ing and-experience is at band. The simplest injuries often prove fata! when they are pot properly attended ‘to, when the injured person does not get the benefit of a little simple help. The Horrors of Thirst. There is no horror like the horror of thirst—no physical suffering comparu- ble to it. A traveler over the desert in Egypt describes a man who had lost his way, wandered about for days without water and finally came stag- gering into his camp. The man's eyes were bloodshot, his lips swollen to twice their natural size; his tongue, blue, parched and swollen, hung out of his mouth. To allow such a man to drink water at will would be like pumping cold water into a redhot steam boiler. It would kill him. This man required to be held forcibly by four men in his eagerness to get at drinking water, while a fifth man al- lowed a few drops to trickle down the throat of the sufferer at long inter- vals. He had to be cooled off little by little, like an fverheated boiler. Some urnucrat - The -official undertaker of a small town was driving through the county on one of his regular missions. A wo- man came out to the gate of a farm yard and hailed. him. “I don't seem to recall your name madam,” he said. “That's funny,” she said. “It ain't been more'n a year and a half ago since you undertook my first hus- band.”—Saturday Evening Post. GRAY HAIR MAKES Y0U LooK 0D Use Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur and Your Gray Hair Will Quickly Vanish, Gray hair is a mark of age, and nothing that can be said as to its beauty will offset the disadvantages of this mark of age set upon your brow. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair|. Remedy darkens the hair and restores it to its youthful beauty. Our grand- mothers and their grandmothers be- fore them used sage and sulphur for darkening their hair.

It also stops the hair from falling out, and makes it beautiful. All druggists are authorized to re- fund the money if it fails to do ex- actly as represented.
