Home Remedy for Weed Poison.
While working in my hay field I
contracted weed poison on my hands,
neck and face which almost set me
wild with the itching pain. I was ad
vised to mash to a pulp a hand full
of green Spanish needle stalks, then
stir the pulp Into a cup of buttermilk
and bathe the afflicted parts with the
mixture. I followed instructions and
found it gave almost instant relief
and two or three applications com
pletely killed the poison.

ed the magistrate. "You look like a
respectable man, and ought to be
ashamed to stand there."
"I am Verra
sorry.sir, but I cam' up In bad com
pany fra Glasgow," humbly replied
the prisoner. "What sort of com
pany?" "A lot of teetotalers!" jivas
j the startling response. "Do you moan
to say teetotalers are bad company?"
thundered the magistrate. "I think
they are the best of company for such
as you." "Beggin' yer pardon, sir,"
j answered the prisoner, "ye're wrong;
for I had a bottle of whuskey an' I had
'to drink it all myself!"
I RIDGLEY'S
REPRISAL. !
Hy Edna JCcr.
tVp)ritihtil,lWr,by M. M.Omnioghnn.
Herbert Morrow, bent and careworn,
passed the parlor door. His daughter
Daisy smiled up at him ns he gUmed
at her lu passing, but the smite turned
Into a sigh as tho bowed figure van
ished. "Is the run on the bunk serious?"
asked Degnon. "Your father kok
very bad."
"I am afraid that it Is serious," she
answered. Site was engaged to Dg
non and trusted Ida discretion.
"I saw the cveulug papers," ho aald,
"but I thought that It was just a sen
sational playing up of nn Ineldout May
I go In and see Mr. Morrow)"
"I wish you would," she sard. "I
seem so helpless. I think he would
like to talk It over with a man."
The bunker looked up wearily as
Degnon entered the library. He liked
this clean cut young chap, who had
couio to Mid vale to take charge of the
electric plant, Degnon went directly
to the matter ut Issue.
"I have come to see If I can tn of
any service," he began. "I have loute
fSO.CXH) (hat I can get hold of tf to I
morrow."
"Too little, but I thank you, my boy,"
said the president of the Union br.nX
"Is there no way out?" pertlUtml
Degnon. "just how does the oatter
stand?"
"It Is a plot of ltldgley's," began ttr
hanker. "It cannot be proven, Irtft he
practically owns the Irovldent SafUJjs
bank as Well as the First NatioulL"
"That la news to me." suld Degttou.
"Aud to most others. For soma rea
son Uldgley does not want his cotuiwr
tlon with tho Provident Imiik known.
Now, Just at present there Is a hoary
demand fcr money on short time loan.

the Provident and my own luna tlw

city banks. Ridgley see his chance fb

enough money In either bank to meet
a run, but the First National will help
the Fro v I dim t. I shall have to sus
pend until I can recall the money ou
deposit In the city."
"1 think I see," mused Depion.
"Both bank need money. The Provi
dent can get it from Its sister bunk.
Your Union will have to admit Its In
ability to py depositors. They turn
shaky about your bank nnd go to the
rival institution."
"That's part of the scheme. The rest
is this: Next week the Interest accrues.
If thore Is a run and the money It
withdrawn, this interest is lost to the
doposltor. The First National will gut
the use of the money until the scare Is
over. They announced tonight that
tholr Interest would bo paid. When
the scare Is over they will cut oft the
Interest und send the money back to
their savings brink, while lu the mean
time the standing of my bank Is lost."
"There li Just one thing to be done,"
said Degnon, producing a blank form.
"Put electrktty Into your bauk."
"How will that help?" asked tho
banker. "It. is a sign of enterprise,
but I am n.'iald In a few days I shall
have no bauk to light."
Degnon smiled.
"I have, aft Idea," he explained. "I
think It Is a gotsl one."
iWllh trembling bund Morrow signed
the contract, and Degnon rose to go.
In the hall be stopped to say good
night 1o Daisy and explain that ho had
to see some one on business on his
way home; hnce his haste.

I inff .l, lht M.rvlcn In the Union Imnk
Already a little knot of depositors
fcnd gathered In front of the two sav
ings Lnnks when the construction gang
put In an appearance. The First Na
tional, in which' Uldgley was silently
Interested, occupied a corner building,
and tho T'nh.'j, Morrow's bank, ndjoln
Ml It. Uldgley's savings blink, tha
Provident, stood diagonally opposite,
nnd It was In front of tho Provident
that the men began to dig to tup the
main feeder. The nien worked stolidly
on, unmindful of the excitement around
them. At the Union, Morrow was pay-
UW off slowly to defer the announce
mont of sUHpeiiMlou, lu the hope that
help might come, At the Provident, ou
the other hand, im extra force kept the
line moving briskly, paying olT s rap
idly as the money could bu counted
out.
Clerks were busy bringing up money
from tho vaults downstairs, and over in
the First Natlonul oilier clerks were re
ceiving the money and opening new ue
couuts. Uldgley had devised the scheme
as rcprlNnl against Morrow. Ills son
had been Daisy's favored suitor until
Degnon hud stepped In mid cut him
out. Ridgley had not forgiven the
hunker for the funded slight and, with
his usunl business instinct, was making
his revenge profitable,
It was nearly noon when a clerk
dashed out of thu Provident and hur
ried Into the First National. In a mo
ment he came out again, accompanied
by Ridgley himself. They were making
their way to the Provident through the
crowd when suddenly Ridgley stopped
at the edge of the excavatlou.
One of tho laborers, an Itallun, was
working with a crowbar at tho bottom
of the pit, set-king to dislodge the bar
from some obstruction It had encoun
tered. Ridgley shouted excitedly to the
man, who smiled pleasantly Into Ills
face and began to climb out of the pit.
The crowd left the line and crowded
around the opening. The Italian was
waving his permit, blandly confident
of his lights, and lu his excitement
Uldgley could uot mnkc himself un
derstood. At Inst the Italian seemed
to comprehend and, dropping back In
to the pit, seized a pickax aud smashed
through tlu obstruction, proudly hand
ing out a bulky cylinder, now gaping
wide to show Its load of crisp bills.
"No tnku da uioii'," explained the
Italian. "Hones' iniiii. Ver" bomV
man. No tnka da mou'."
In a Gash thu crowd understood. The
Provident was meeting the ni by
paying out money sent under the aUeet
from the First Natlonul. The wuiej
was making au endless chain, being
paid out over and over again. Half a
dojifu men In the crowd began to ex
plaiu htiW the bauk was pruuttug by
the evasion of interest, and RLlgle
retired hurriedly. With the crowd In

The Round Robin.
The "round robin" had its origin sev

It was uned (hero by ollicera of the
army as a method of expressing their
dissatisfaction with the course of the
king or his ministers. Ily signing In a
circular form tho leaders of the move

The first Instance on record of the
uso of this form of protest In the navy
occurred In bK.'i. At the Instigation of
the Duko of Buckingham, the klng'a
favorite, an English fleet, under Ad
miral Hennlngton, was dispatched to
Xtochelle to ai;Hlt In the coercion of the
Protestant subjects of Louis XIII. of
France. But the English tars, In com
mon with their fellow countrymen,
looked with favor upon the resistance
of their coreligionists against the pros
elyting mil of the French king, and
they signed a "round robin" express
ing their determination not to lire a
shot against them, and without wait
ing for a reyly they weighed anchor
and brought their ships back to Eng
land. The admiral, however, received
a peremptoiy order to return to
Dieppe, whereupon tho whole of tho
crews quitted the shjps without fur
