SAMUEL PITCHER, M.D. French paupers are provided for bv fie funds arising from a ten per cent 1 on theater tickets. This tax aver- ieB $10,000,000 a year. A little thing happened down at the ,ine of Schilling's Best tea the other (jay that cost the firm a clean $200, Aid the most interesting feature of the tatter is that they could have got out k paying it if they wanted to because was a voluntary thing and no one npected them to do it. It seems that, in the earlier part of e missing word contest. A. Schilling Co. promised f 100 each to the two jereonswho sent in the largest number if Schilling's Best yellow tickets before line IS. It eecms fair that the consumers of fie tea should get those prizes. A tracer Iiiib a better opportunity for coli feting tickets; and then, too, he makes profit on the tea. But two grocers on the prizes, and A. Schilling & Co. iairl the money. Now comes the funny part they anted consumers to get f 200, and were 'termined they should. So they paid totlicr $200 to the two consumers who ad sent in the two largest numbers of ikets. That is handsome, to say the least. It is well known that continued dark ies has caused the vision nf nnimulu fc become partially destroyed. HOITT'S SCHOOL. M. Mr TO LOOK WELL A-WHEEL. fieo.ons Why Many Ri,,eP, Appear ara una Uncomfortable. I C Y CLE riding should make a woman look well Instead of ill. It Is all a matter of dross and the ad justment of the bicycle. All that Is necessary for t h e o r d i n a r y woman is to get a befitting cos tume and then ar range the various parts of her wheel so that the ma chine seems a part of her as she rides it. It is not a bit harder to have a bi cycle adjusted to tit than to have it adjusted so that it does not fit, and the difference In appearance is everything. In most cases the changes necessary to alter the position and appearance of a rider from hud to good can be made by raising or lowering the handle bars or the saddle, or moving the latter a little forward or a little back. In nine cases out of mu women who look nnd feel awkward 011 wheels do so because the seats and handle-bars of their machines are not properly adjusted. The aeeomimnying pictures show some of the mnny shades of difference between the right position, in which a woman may ride gracefully and easily, over the pedals, too, rather than behind them, and would have enough of her! weight on the handle bars to guide her machine easily and safely. There Is such 11 thing, however, as having the saddle too far forward and too high, as Is shown in figures :! and 4, which illustrate positions just the reverse of those in the figures explain ed above. In figure .'J tl' rider has the appearance of climbing a steep hill and of working very hard in the ascent, simply because her saddle is too low nnd too far forward. She has to push back on her pedals rather than down and has not room enough between the saddle and the pedals to give full swing to her knees. liaising the saddle and putting It lNick a little would give the rider a graceful and easy position. The dilliculty shown in figure 4 is the opposite of that In figure 1 the saddle Is too high. The rider has to tip for ward in order to reach the pedals when they are at their lowest point in mak ing a revolution. That attitude is. per haps, the most tiring that can be as sumed by a rider on a long journey, as It throws the entire Ixuly out of posi tion. The adjustment would be correct it the saddle were lowered so that t.ie pedals and haudlc-lMirs could lte reach ed easily and the lady would find cy cling much easier nnd more pleasurable than she can In the attitude In which Bhe is shown. All that Is necessary to make any of the changes suggested and to adjust wheels so that the riders can look and $1000" Who will get it ? ts Schillings Best tea is not only pure but it f because it is fresh-roasted. What is the missing v:ord ? Get Schilling's Best tea at your grocer's; take out the Yellow Ticket (there is one in every package); send it with your guess to address below before August 31st. One word allowed for every yellow ticket. If only one person finds the word, he gets one thousand dollars. II several find it, the money will be divided equally among them. Every one sending a yellow ticket will get a set of cardboard creeping babies at the end of the contest Those sending three or more in on envelope will receive a charming 1S98 calendar, no advertisement on it.

Many women may find In these pictures, too, hints that will help them to correct their styles of riding and enable theni to better enjoy an ex ercise which has been only half pleas urable In the past, because they did not know how to follow It. It Is easy to see what Is the difficulty with the woman shown In figure No. 1, what It is that makes her look as If she were working a sewing machine rather than riding a wheel. Her saddle Is too low. If it were raised to its proper height her knees would not pump up and down before her chin with every revolution like a pair of piston roos. lf It were raised she would have a de cidedly better appearance, her skirt would hang better, she would ride more easily and It would not be hard for her to guide her wheel, as it certainly Is In the position In which she Is shown. The awkward position shown In fig ure Xo. '2 Is the result of having the Middle too far hack from the handle bam, so that the rider can just reach the steering apparatus and no more and so that she has to push forward on the pedals almtwt as much as down In propelling her wheel. The position which that adjustment of the machine gives makes the rider look as If she were trying to keep her seat on a buck ing bronco from which she was expect ing to be thrown at any Instant. If the saddle were brought forward a little and raised slightly the position would be good. The lady would be sitting be comfortable rather than awkward and uncomfortable Is a monkey-wrench and a little common sense. With those nearly all the changes that are neces sary to put women's wheels in proper condition can be effected. A proper position lor a woman on a bicycle is shown in figure The rider there sits easily and gracefully, and the work of propelling her wheel Is not half the work exerted by any of the others. She not only looks well, but it is a posi tion lu which cycling exercise Is play rather than labor, and lxMiollcial rather than harmful. Stove Adapted Tor Hot Weather. Professor William M. Watts, of Still Pond, lias a novelty In the form of a cold stove. The stove Is for. use in the heated months of summer for reducing temperature, just as stoves lion ted by fire are used to raise the temperature In winter. Hy the use of salt, a small iiuantlty of ice mid a patented chem ical the most Intense degree of cold Is secured. So great Is the cold that it Is as dangerous to touch I his cold stove when lu operation as It would lie to place the hand 011 a tire stove at a high degree of heat. The skin Is instantly tn ten olT and painful injuries are the result of the slightest contact. Pro lessor Watts states that during the hot test weather the t em pent 1 11 re of a room inaylie run down and made pleasant by the use of this novel device. The new profess was discovered by a college male of the teacher of the Still Pond school. The cost of operating the stove Is very slight. Cbcstertown Transcript. Prtiaaln'a Amber Monopoly. The working of amber in Prussia is a monopoly in the hands of a firm which j owns the two best mines, the Palmnick i en and Kraxtepelle. For the concession ! it has, according to a report from the British consul atDantzig, to pay to the German government a royalty of 1150, 000 marks a year. It is reckoned, says the London News, that this firm has, up to now, paid no less than $1,000, 000 in royalties to the German govern ment. In addition to the output from the mines in 1895, a good deal of amber was picked up on the beach at the Pil lau, in the province of East Prussia, being washed up with the seawood dur ing the prevalence of northwesterly gales. The shore atPillau after a Btorm is sometimes covered witli a layer of seaweed three feet thick, among which the anilier is found entangled. Men, women and children find easy and lu crative employment in searching for the amber along this part of the amber coast. The people engaged in this pre carious work often earn fli a day or more. In 18115 about 100 tons of raw amber came to Dantzig to be worked up, as compared witli 140 tons in 181)4. It is nearly all melted to make lac and varnish. The larger pieces are also made into beads, whirh are sent all over the world. The beads known to the trade as the Leghorn corals, are in strong demand. tliMMiHii Itailroufla. Unssia, with over 4,875,000 square miles more than the United States, has 158,000 miles less of railroads, says the Boston Courier. Most of the en gines burn naphtha oil for fuel, witli excellent results. This oil is the ref use from the first refining and costs about 40 cents per barrel. This oil is bIbo used for general lubricating pur poses. None of the engines have bells, but instead they have two whistles. The engines are finely painted, the wheels red, the frame black, jacket and cab green, with a line black stripe; the inside of cabs nearly white, or cream color. The speed of freight trains is limited to 20 miles an hour, and the fast express is limited to 85 miles per hour. In switching and making np of trains all signals are given hy sound that if, the switctuiian has a tin horn which lie blows and the engine driver is obliged to repeat this signal by whistle before bo goes ahead. AVhen and engine stops the en gineer is required to give three short whistles. State Agricultural College... OF OREGON. SCIENTIFIC FQHIPMKNT TUB BUST IN Til F. STATK.
