A
OF EVERYTHING
North Amorioa is credited with
twenty volcanoes. Central America
with twenty-five and South America
with thirty-eight. Many of these
are upon islands.
The case of eatangled marriage
relationship in Kansas hardly equals
the oase in Oregon, where the man
m rried the mother of his father's
wife and became the fathjr of his
own father, and the grandfather of
his father's ohildren.
Suicides of young women are the
order o( the day in southern China,
where in consequence of the famine
many girls have been sold into
slavery. To escape this many are
committing suicide. Over six hun
dred have done so. Recently eight
young girls tied themselves to
gether, walked into a river and were
drowned.
A New York judge has placed a
rational interpretation upon the
marriage laws by refusing to grant
a New York citizen a divorce from
his wife because she is extravagant
and even committed forgery to 'get
money. The judge says when a
man takes a wife for better or for
worse it is a pretty hard matter to
annul the contract.
Few people realize that Alaska
sends to the United States products
valued at 115,000,000 per annum.
They consist of gold to the amount
of $8,000,000. fish to the amount of
10,000,000, and furs to the amount
of $ 1,000,000. The total valne of
products brought from Alaska to
the United States since its purchase,
according to tbe Bureau of Statistics,
will exceed 150,000,000.
' Certain Cure for Dysentery and
Diarrhoea.
"Some years ago I wa one of a party
that Intended making a long bicycle
trip," says F. L. Taylor, of Now Albany,
Bradford County, Pa. "I waa taken
suddenly witb diarrhoea, and waa about
to eive up the trip, when Editor Ward,
of the Laceyville Messenger, suggested
that I take a dose of Chamberlain's
Col io, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
1 purchased a bottle and took two doses,
one before starting and one on the
route. 1 made the trip successfully and
never felt any ill effect. Again last
summer I was almost completely run
down with an attack of dysentery. I
bought a bottle, of. this same remedy
aud this time ooe dose cured Jme."

" - BEARDS AND GLASSES. "
ffwo Ornaments That Are Rarely
Found Upon Hotel Wnltern.
"Ever sec a wnlter wearing glasses?"
demanded the Inquisitor.
No one could remember, although
Just why a wnlter should not be seen
with glnse8 as well as any other man
wns uot apparent.
"It's Just like the wearing of beards,"
went on the Inquisitor. "The proprie
tors of our Important hotels, restau
rants nnd cafes will uot permit cither
beards or glasses to be worn by their
waiters. It Is possible that in some
old fashioned family or commercial
hotel tho servitors may be found with
their noses straddled by optical helps,
but you won't find 'cm along Broad
way. "Now, this Is a fact worthy of note
becauso In every other calling In life
the nnmber of persons wearing glusses
Is on the increase, nnd even in our
schools a considerable percentage of
very small children will be found
wearing glasses, nnd while', as 1 say,
hotel, restaurant and cafe proprietors
nre opposed to the glasses, still I hnve
seldom found a waiter whose eyes in
dicated that he was In the slightest
need of them.
"You may nrgtte that restaurant
wnlters arc generally young men.
Grant you that instantly, but all the
same thousands of men of similar nge
have to wear them in almost every
other occupation.
"The majority of those servitors
commence lu boyhood, nnd the demand
of their. vocation causes no Btrnin on
the eyesight Consequently thnt may
account In a measure for the absence
of any necessity for the use of specs.
Moreover, the steam from hot viands
would render thorn useless probably,"

rangements, will be represented In the

starts today. Characteristic floats will
be the chief features and all of the
unions and trades will be represented.
It Is said that the parade Will be much
larger than upon former occasions. At

England May Retaliate.
London, Sept 1. The approaching
expiration of the time limit for the
completion of the Atlantic shipping
combine is arousing the British presB
to all sorts of speculation regarding
J. Pierpont Morgan's ultimate plans.
The promised statement of the pre
mier, A. J. Balfour, on the reassem
bling of parliament is awaited with
intense interest. The statement has
been printed that the government
plans are complete and that the au
thorities are ready to make the effect
ive counter move against the Ameri
can syndicate. Inquiries in the best
Informed quarters indicate t.iat Oils
announcement Is not true.
Thore is no doubt that Mr. Balfour's
announcement will Include a scheme
for a direct, last service, in which the
Canadian Pacific railroad probably will
participate, but not, as originally plan
ned, as sole promoter and beneficiary.
The indications point more and more
to the drawing together of the Atlantic
lines outside of the Morgan combine.

"I want all the world to know,"
writes Kev. U. J. Budlong, of ASbaway,
U. I., "what a thoroughly good and re

liver troubles that had oaused me great

THE FEMININE MIND. '
Some Men Think Thr Fathom t.
bnt Thejr Are Mlataken.
A man can very seldom tell what is
passing In a woman's mind. He talks
with another man, and he can follow
bis processes; he gets bis point C
view; he can read between tbe llnec
he can make a shrewd guess as to
how be came to any that or why k
refrained from saying 'the other, says
the Watchman.
But a woman's mental processes ass
not those of a man. Her mental ma
chinery Is geared differently. You bear
what she tells you. You can make In
ferences from It. They will be wrong
because you do not know bow , an
came to say what she did; you do oat
have the clew. Try to guess what aba
will say next, and you will find tbat
you are all at sea.
.The man who sans that he under
stands woman is himself a womnm.
No man can understand a woman. Ba
may love her. There may exist be
tween his soul and hers that Inde
finable and celestial sympathy whack
Is the sweetest thing on earth, but ha
does not understand her.
Her mental operation, her ways C
thought her point of view, will always
be as inscrutable to bin) as the mental
processes of tm angel. Whether wom
en understand each other is not qnlto
certain. A greater part of the delight
that men find in the companionship of
women arises from their inscrutability.
You cannot measure or exhaust them.
Their charmiDg Inconsequence, ' aa
It seems to you, will never cease lev
puzzle you, and every fresh conversa
tion reveals a novelty of attitude r
opinion. '
SHREWD VICTOR HUGO.
The Qalet War In Which He BnllleJ
the Theatrical Managers.
Here are tbe methods which Duma -the
elder and Victor Hugo employe
when they had a new play to offer t
the theater. Dumas would write to the
director of the Porte St Martin:
My Dear Friend I shall brtna; you .on -
Monday a play In five acts. I shall neeA
Mile. Georges, Mme. Dorval, Bocag
Lockroy, Provost and five new scenes.
This extravagance would alarm the
director, who would put off the produc
tion of the play till better days.
.Then Victor Hugo would appear anat
shyly draw a manuscript out of bJa
pocket He would agree to everything.
Tbe stock company would play hla
piece admirably, since all he wanted
was a good ensemble; no new decora
tions would be needed nor any change)
at all.
So the piece would be read, and aa
the roles were distributed Hugo wouM
say musingly, "Dieu, how fine Freder
ick would be in that part!" "That Is
true," Horel would murmur, and a few
days after he would announce that
Frederick .. wa.s,en(ragcd. Hugo wophj
then remonstrate, that :this destroyed
the eqnlpose of the cast arid Uauoourt,
Laferrierc ami MHivUiotbch wonM be
o v.i ii" T:i-! : n;ro -would dttarstthe
si..e u. scenes, that the pok
11c had tired of, were almost an lnsdtt
to these great artists. If Horel showed
reluctance at this, Hugo would threat
en to withdraw his piece. And so the
game would go on, till, little by little.
Hugo bad obtained everything he
wanted, even to changing the paper
hangings in tbe stage boxes.
Josh Westhafer, of Loogootee, Ind
is a poor man, but he says he would not
be without Chamberlain's Pain Balm H
it cost five dollars a bottle, for it saved
him from being a cripple. No external
application is equal to tbiB liniment for
stiff and swollen joints, contracted
muscles, stiff neck, sprainB and rhe
matiu and muscular pains. It has alee
cured numerous cases of partial paraly
sis. It is for eale by Chas. Strang,
druggist. .
A crowd ' gathered on a vacant lot -In
the rear of Broad street Elizabeth.
Saturday, to witness the flight of a
newly designed airship, or aeroplane,
constructed by Paul J. Reid. As the
great vessel, which is set on wheels,
fluttered and tugged at the guy ropes, '
the crowd fled. In the boat's Btrnggla
it rose partly and fell on its side, snap
ping off the frail Bide arms. This
ended further efforts at Sight Despite)
this the craft continued to ascend.
