; Microscopic Laberatery is Estab- | Mshed im Comsection with ine Department of Agriculture. For the purpose of insurizs gure food for the people of this country Wilson has established a microscopic laboratory in connection with the chem- foal division of the department of agri- culture. Already it has been demon- part of an inch; is one of the new equipments. Arrange- ments are made for photographing these minute wafers while under the micro- scope, and from the enlarged sections are made transparencies for throwing gon the screen. A test was made recently of spruce and linen pulp for the manufacture of Paper in this country, and it was found the manufacturers were being imposed upon by the importers, and through the determination of the microscopist thou- sands of dollars were saved. In import- ing sumac into this country fraud was constantly practised on dealers and manufactures. This was stopped through this department. This ap- paratus is also used for getting at the disease of wheat and other grain, and also the adaptability of certain varieties of wheat to different climates, besides ascertaining the amount of starch and other nutritive qualities devloped under certain soil and climatic conditions, NO CHILDREN AS BEARERS. New York Undertaker Protests Against Yout eting at Funerals Says It Affects Their: Nerves, “My patrons usually find me very accommodating,” said a New York un- dertaker, “but there is one arrange- ment they frequently make that I fight against religiously. That is the im- Pressment of children into service as pallbearers. To my mind it is a rep- rehensible practice. From the purely sentimental standpoint it probably looks pretty to see a little child car- ried to the grave by its playmates. Doctors and undertakers, however, are seldom sentimentalists, and as they look at the thing from a strictly pro- fessional point of view they see harm in the custom rather than beauty. “It is harmful to the children. This thing of serving as pallbearers is not a Pleasant duty for ahybody not inured to the business, and naturally it is par- ticularly trying on the tierves of chil- dren. Many a time I have seen the lit- tle tots shaking in their boots as it came time for them to lift the coffin, and on a few occasions I have seen one of them keel right over. By the friends that sudden weakness was at- tribtited to grief, but it was nothing of the kind. Probably the child did feel badly over the loss of its compan- fon, but sorrow would never affilct it so sorely. It was pure nervousness that caused the collapse. I have known an exceedingly sensitive child to be all unstrung for weeks after such an ordeal. “Fortunately parents do not insist upon the practice so much as former- ly Even if they do incline to the idea at first I general find it possible to talk them out of the notion unless the child has been précocious in such mat- ters and has requested that certain little friends act as pallbearers, which sometimes happens. In that case I find all arguments unavailing and much a I dislike the custom I am obliged to conduct a funeral with youthful poll- bearers.” BACK AFTER NINETEEN YEARS Man Who Mysteriously Disappeared Almost Two Decades Ago Re- turns with a Fortune. Jesse Dixon has returned to his wife and seven children at Stephens, Ark., after a mysterious absence of 19 years. At the time he left here he was one of the most prominent farmers in the community, a leading Methodist, de- voted to his family, and highly respect- ed. He had no eccentricities. One day he told his wife he was go- ing to feed the hogs, took a few ears of corn, and went away. That was the last seen of him until to-day, when, _@ bent and aged man, he got off a train at the station. His eldest son met him, the family having been informed of his coming. His wife suffered much hardship after the desertion, but the children grew up and the family pros- pered. Dixon had made a small fortune in the west. He was very ill when he notified his family of his whereabouts. He has not explained his absence. Servia’s Time Up. The Chicago Daily News remarks that Bulgaria is thinking of having @ war.

Fermer Servian Ruler Fereed te Seek Assistance from German Kaiser Before Queen Natalie Gives Up Alexander. The bloody events in Belgrade re cently call to mind an interesting Ger- man episode in the history of the house of Obrenowitsch. ‘ This was the giving up of the late King Alexander, then crown prince, to ‘his father, King Milan, It was in July, |. , 1888, when the divorce of King Milan | from his wife, Natalie, had been decided upon. The queen, with the little prince, was ; In Wiesbaden. Milan demanded the de- . livery of his son, and he decided, in case Natalie refused, to call on the Prussian | officials for ald, The quéen catégorically | declined to gtve up the prince. | ‘ In connection with this sensational affair the most fantastic stories were told. : Tt was said that the young prince would be abducted by night by the Serv- fan Gen. Protisch, who, as the represen- tative of King Milan, had arrived fw Wiesbaden. He, however, relieved the fear of the queen by declaring that he never would take refuge in such méthods. Then Natalie appealed to the German kaiser, but his majesty answered in a telegram that King Milan merely made use of his right as a ruler and father and that international law prohibited inter- ference, He therefore strongly advised her to give up her son. However, the queen re- fused, and thereupon the Prussian offi- clals peremptorily demanded com- pliance with Milan's request. But again the queen refused, and took steps to prevent the taking away of Alexander by force. She armed her servants with weapons. The Prussian government had no desire to see a Servian matter fought out in its own territory, and so Natalie was made to understand that if she opposed the officials she would be expelled from Ger- many. Then she sent her aunt, Princess Ma- Tussi, to Berlin on a mission to secure help, but the aunt returned to Wies- baden without accomplishing anything. and after Natalie had telegraphed in vain to the katser she finally consented to give up her son. The painful episode, of course, had at- tracted the widest attention, and very early in the morning of July 12 a large concourse of people had gathered before the villa of the queen. About nine o'clock two Servian off- cers, Col. Bajalowitsch and Maj. Chi- nitsch, came to the villa to be the crown prince's adjutants. An hour later the police president of Wiesbaden, dressed in full uniform, drove bfore the villa, followed by two police inspectors, two commissioners and 12 policemen. The nevotiations in the villa lasted for five minute Then Alexander csme out of the house. He laughed. but his mother, from an upper window, bade him a tear- ful farewell. INDIAN EDITS DAILY PAPER.

Miss. Simpkins was a housewife of the old school, staid and particu- las. Hee habits were the develop- ment of many generations, dating back to the good old days of Puritan custom. It is tewe that Mrs. Simpkins had long age abandoned the spinning wheel and so longer burned tallow dips, but in many things she still lung to the old fashioned notions of her mother and her mother’s mother. She made her own soap for the same reason that she still bought her seda crackers in a brown paper bag: because it was the habit of her ancestors, and what was good enough for them must be good enough for her. The Simpkins household had always been conducted on this good principle, and it is possible that nothing would ever have changed the precise routine of affairs, but for the beginning of another generation in the person of Jonathan, Jr., better known to the neighbors as plain Johnnie Simpkins. At thirteen, it was evident that Johnnie had been born into the wrong family. There was none of the real Simpkins about John. He was all that was progressive—some- times he was more. Johnnie’s first indication of the strenuous character was to convince his mother that it was more desir- able to buy trousers to fit him than to abbreviate those previously worn by Simpkins the elder. After that, fendants. lainti by eight, tow: Order of Publication, { a8.

The greatest victory in John’s life was when he rebelled against eating soda crackers that had ab- sorbed too much of the grocery store atmosphere, and gave ¢vi- dence of familiar association with the mackerel barrel and kerosene can. Mrs. Simpkins said they tasted exactly like the crackers they had been cating all their lives, to which Johnnie agreed, but he further said they were not in it with the biscuit Willie Smith brought to school, all sealed up in an airtight box. Here the matter was dropped, because Johnnie discovered the danger signal in time, and side- tracked the subject. The next day while Mrs. Simp- kins was talking to a neighbor, a close observer would have seen Johnnie cautiously slipping into the back door with a mysterious pur- ple package tucked under one arm. This was carefully opened and part of the contents neatly piled on one of the large blue plates which his mother usually used to serve such things. When Mrs. Simpkins came in, she picked up one of the new biscuit as a matter of habit and started to munch it. “Why, John,” she exclaimed,“ I don’t see anything waong in that; NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY County of Bates.

I think Pil make a cup of tea and get some jam. The idea of your saying these crackers taste fishy.

Uneeda Biscuit don’t come in no paper bag, they come all sealed up in a package like this.” And Johnnie disclosed his treasure. Slowly Mrs. Simpkins took the package and looked at it inside and out, spelled out the mystic word “In-er-seal” on the end, sampled another of the biscuit, and asked Jonathan, “where did you get these?” “Oh, I spent that nickel you gave me for school. Ain’t. they bully, ma?” “Well, I always thought « cracker was a cracker, but I must say, these beat anything I ever tasted,” and then Mrs. Simpkins made the tea and got out the jam.
