YELLOWSTONE PARK.
Early 8toria of IU Amazing Sight
War Not Blivad.
The first recorded visit to Yellow
atone park was made by John Colter In
1810. He was a trapper and adven
turer who took refuge there from hos
tile Indian. His story of Its wonders
was discredited. The next recorded
visit was by a trapper named Joseph
Meek In 1829, who described It as "a
country smoking with vapor from boil
ing springs and burning wUh gases Is
suing from small craters." cYom some
of these craters, be said, "Issued blue
flame and molten brimstone," which.
of course, was not true, though doubt
less Meek fully believed It to be the
truth.
Between 1830 and 1840 Wan en An
gus Ferris, a clerk In the American
Fur company, wrote the first descrip
tion of the Flrebole Geyser basin, but
it was not until 1852 that the geyser
district was actually defined and the
geysers precisely located. This was
done by Father de Smet, the famous
Jesuit missionary. '
It remained for a government expe
dition, sent out In 1869 under command
of Captain W. F. Reynolds, to first
really explore and chart the region.
Several private explorers followed, but
so great was public incredulity as to
the marvels they described tbat they
did not dare tell their experiences be
fore any general audiences.
The large exploring expedition under
Governor Henry D. Washburn, sur
veyor general of Montana, In . 1870
finally established the facts to the pub
lic belief and led to the creation of the
Yellowstone National park. .
LANTERNS IN CHINA.
Of All 8ire, 8hapet and Prieet, Thy
Are In Common Uio.
Particularly gay and attractive are
the shops of tbe lantern venders In the
Chinese chles.
All varieties of lanterns are to be
seen the large silken ones three and
four feet high, gorgeously painted with
variegated colors, embroidered In gold
and silver or decorated with deep
fringe of the same material, costing
from $100 to $200 and used by the
wealthy mandarins and others, and
common small horn and paper lanterns,
used by the coolies, which cost one-
sixteenth of a dollar.
The mode of making horn lanterns Is
very ingenious; the horns are cut into
remarkably tbin slices which, by
means of heat and pressure, are Joined
together and formed Into various
shapes; round, square, hexagon, octa
gon, and some shaped to resemble an
hourglass.
It is usual for servants, after sunset,
to carry before their masters large
lanterns made either of horn or highly,
varnished paper, with the name, tlUe
and dignities painted in large letters
thereon.
At tbe feast of lanterns, which takes
place In the early part of the Chinese
New Year, these lantern shop pro
prietors reap a rich harvest, as it is
customary for parents to make pres
ents of lanterns to their children,
brother to sister, friend to friend, In
ferior to superior, and vice versa.
Harmony In the Leaves of a Tree.
One of the remarkable characteris
tics of a tree is tbe process of leafage,
and if we examine tbe bough upon
which tbe leaves grow tbe admiration
of tbe scientific agriculturist will be
come thoroughly aroused over the per
fect consistency and artistic skill man
ifested in tbe arrangement of each
spray and the exact number of leaves
arranged with the most exquisite art
and regularity. Every group of leaves
forms merely long lines, no two alike,
no two in the same position, yet all so
perfect and harmoniously blended that
there can be no antagonism, no same
ness and all those thousands and thou
sands of strange and delicate forms
grouped together, neither confused nor
ill arranged.
Man and th Carnal.
When man first saw the camel he
was so frightened at bis vast size that
he fled away. After a time, perceiving
the meekness and gentleness of his
temper, be summoned courage enough
to approach him. Soon afterward, ob
serving that be was an animal alto
gether deficient in spirit, be assumed
such boldness as to put a bridlo In his
mouth and to set a child to drive him.
Use serves to overcome dread. From
Aesop's Fables.

DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
It Mixed, with Sulphur It
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can TelL
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and fnded hair is grandmother's recipe,
and folks are again using it to keep their
Imlr a good, even color, which is quite
sensible, aa wo are living in an age when
a youthful appearance is of the greatest
advantage.
Nowadays, though, wo don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the (age
and the mussv mixing at home. AU
drug stores sell the ready-to-use product,
Improved by,the addition of other ingred
ients, called AVyct's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" foy abolt 60 contg a bottle.
It is very popoJar ecause nobody can
discover "it liasyeel applied, Simply
moisten your comlxot a soft brush with
it and draw this thnligh your hair, tak
ing one small strand lit a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after a
few applications, it also produces that
fioft lustre and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive, mis reaay-to-use
preparation is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful ap
pearance. It is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease. '
. How to Give Good Advice.
The best way to eive ood advice
is to set a good example. When , oth
ers see how quickly you get over your
cold by taking Chamberlain's Cough
remedy they are likely to follow your
example. This remedy has been in
use for many years and enjoys an ex
cellent reputation. Obtainable every
