To touch or handle them quickly produces swelling ud inflammation with in tense itching and burning of the skin. The eruption soon disappears, the suf ferer hopes forever : but almost as soon as the little blisters and Sustules appeared the poison had reached ic blood, and will break out at regular Intervals and each time In a more aggra vated form. This poison will loiter in the system for years, and every atom of it must be forced out of the blood before you can expect a perfect, permanent cure. sss Natire's AilUttc FOR 'Nature's Hsm, b the only cure for Poison Oak, Foisos Ivy, and all noxious plants, it is com posed exclusively of roots and herbs. Now u the time to get the poison out of your system, ss delay makes yonr condition worse. Don't experiment longer with salves, washes and soaps they never cure. Mr. 8. M.

He took Sulphur, Arseaie and various Mbtr drugs, and applied caternaliy numerous lotions and salves with no beucfit. At times the swelling and inflammation waa ao severe be was almost blind.

But when It comes to downright abandon nnd perfect plctur csqucness In this there Is nobody who can excel the Italian laborer. "No cowboy with a broad-rlmtucd twcnty-flve-dollar felt hat wIiobo brim 11 1 os back against the side of the crown and stays there ns lie gallops acroBS the country can get a gayer twist on his hat than an Italian laborer wear lug a cheap, narrow-brimmed, ragged any maybe mortar-stalued, soft hat can get on his. "Not all Italians aro thus pictur esque, to be sure; but tho Italian that Is wears his slouch hat In the most fantastic forms with absolute uncon sciousness, with perfect naturalness of manner. It Is not something studied for effect, but his hat Is a picturesque and perfectly harmonious part of his attire. "lie can turn the brim at the front square back against his head, leaving fnee and forehead wholly exposed; or, ho can turn It up nt the side, dr for that matter up at the bnck, and his battered old lint will be jaunty and picturesque still and absolutely becom ing to him. "And wearing a lint In that way Is not tho only' thing ho can do plctur csqucsly. He can carry n shovel so; and maybe he Is the only mnu living that can do thnt. You will meet, going to their work, Italian laborers carrying their shovels by a cord tied ono end to the handle near the blndc, the other end to the grip end of tho handle. By this cord, passed over his shoulder, he carries his shovel suspended at his back, Just as ho would carry a carbine there by the strap attached to stock and bnrrel.

Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to n physician for examina tion : but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham's Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., and secure from a woman tho most efficient advice with out charge.

It Interrupts routine and dis organizes everything. The comparison cutis there and does not extend to vital statistics. Tho fog Is noisome; the Hood Is nn occasion for merryiunlclng. A Venice correspondent sends us n lit tle "Impression" of a recent Hood ex perienced there. When the bland wlnil to which Venice owes her mild winter Is persistent the tides are so affected ns to arrest the How of water from the unrrow canals to the lngoons. The wind brings rain, which, being contlnu ous, assists to raise the water level. In the recent Uood the halls of houses nnd entrance steps of palaces on thu Grand canal wero submerged; thu piazza was Inundated and lay like n mirror under St. Mark's, whoso alabas ter anil porphyry and golden, blue, and red mosaics shone ns If freshly washed. The atrium was tinder the Hood, which washed tho storied sarcophagi of the early doges. The black gotiodolns float ing on a level with the lower ranges of pointed whitlows were making a bar vest. Porters and street boy were turning nimble coppers by plnclng planks for foot passengers, and a great deal of amusement was got out of their behavior by the legion of loungers who were flooded out of work. Everybody wns out of doors enjoying the fun. It wan not long before the pliuzu was u scene of animation, with Its Improvised plank bridges and qulek-lllttlng bonis. To add to the scenic effect. It wns con firmation day nt St. Mark's. It was a pretty sight to watch thu little maids In long, white veils mid In white, pink, or blue dresses, each with a lighted taper, walking two and two over the 'tottering bridges. Hut tho wnter carnival went as soon as It came. Little whirls nnd ed'dlos, noticed by old boatmen, betokened that the Hood was falling, and In a few hours the huh was shining, nnd the Venetians wero gos siping on the dried stones of the square.

Twelve thousand dol lars for n two-homed rhinoceros, thu ugliest, lowest, least Intelligent, and ouo of the most ferocious of anliuals! Yet this Is what John Smith, director of tho Now York Zoo, has refused for her. Moreover. Hiigeuheck, the animal man, has said that Smiles Ih actually worth more than $IL',000; that tho value of the beast Is at least $15,000. As Smiles weighs 1,000 pounds, she Is worth $lfi u pound. Smiles' nlmost Incredible value lies In the fact that she Is ono of thu rarest animals In captivity, there being not more than eight two-horned rhinoce roses In bondage. The Central Park beast was named Smiles In an Ironical spirit, for nothing like a smile has ever been detected on her countenance. Ynunv Woman Farmer. Tho Hou.
