Poor Im Spelling.
Charles Steckler and a friend were
driving along a country road on the
Canadian shore of Lake Ontario when
this alga, nailed to a gatepost, attract
ed their attention:
LAM.
SHEAP.
"Now, what does that fellow mean?"
mused Mr. Steckler. "Is his name
Lamb, and has he got sheep for sole,
or Is his name Sheap, and has he got
Jamb for sale?"
Hailing a native, Mr. Steckler re
peated the question. The native
grinned and drawled:
, "'TIs a leetle bit eomplex, come to
look at it, ain't It? Farmer Towle there
ain't much on spelling, but he's pow
' erful strong at trading. What he's try
ing to let people know by that sign is
that be has lamb for sale and that he'll
sell it cheap."
This Is Miraculous.
Manhattan, Kansas, March 14.
One of the Btrangest cases that has
ever been heard of in Kiley county is
that of the three year old daughter of
Mr. Jonas Brubaker of this place.
Sometime ago the little girl took
whooping cough, which was followed
by pneumonia When the pneumonia
left her, she was taken down with ma
laria fever with at times symptoms of
Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safely
through these troubles, but after the
fever Bright's Disease set in, and the
doctors gave her up. Her father tells
the rest of the stoiy:
"We began to give her Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and aft;r she had taken about
three and a half boxes, she was entire
ly cured. Now she is well as any child,
rum ing and playing aa if nothing had
ever 1 eeu the matter. The doctors
said she was beyond the reach of medi
cine. Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly
saved our little girl's life, when she
was so far into the chronic stage of
Bright's Disease that we thought noth
ing could save her."

MAKING OF PATENT LEATHER.
Each Manufacturer Has Hie Own Pro
cess. All manufacturers of patent leather
have their own tanning processes,
much like those of the calfskin tanner,
though some patent leather is given a
bark tanning. Horsehlde and colt
skins are the chief leathers made with
a patent finish.
The patent or enamel finish is really
painted and baked on, as the bicycle
manufacturer paints and bakes enamel
onto a frame. Tanners are very par
ticular about keeping their processes
secret, and nobody but workmen Is
ever allowed into the finishing rooms.
The hide or skin, having been
stretched and dried as much as possi
ble, is first given a coating of a mix
ture of linseed oil litharge, white lead
or similar materials boiled, together
until they make a pasty mixture.
This Is daubed on the surface with
a steel tool and well rubbed in, so that
the pores of the leather will be filled
up. Then the leather Is put Into the
oven; Its surface being exposed to
steam pipes at a temperature of about
ICO degrees.
Next the surface is rubbed down
with pumice stone, and then it is cov
ered with linseed oil and Ivory black,
about six layers applied, each layer
being dried and rubbed down. Finally
a varnish is applied, and then the sur
face is rubbed down and finished off as
nicely aa a painter finishes a fine car
riage. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Something About Canals.
The Suez canal is usually considered
the most important example of ship
canals, though the number of vessels
passing through it annually does not
equal that passing through the canals
connecting Lake Superior with the
chain of great lakes at the south. In
length, however, it exceeds any of the
other great ship canals, its total
length being 00 miles, of which about
two-thirds is through shallow lakes,
says Harper's Weekly.
The canal connecting the Bay of.
Cronstadt with St. Petersburg is a
work of great strategic and commer
cial importance to Russia. The canal
and sailing course in the bay are
about 10 miles long, the canal proper
being about six miles and the bay
channel about 10 miles, and they to
gether extend from Cronstadt, on the
Gulf of Finland, to St. Petersburg.
The next of the great ship canals
connecting bodies of salt water in the
order of date of construction is the
Corinth canal, which connects the Gulf
of Corinth with the Gulf of Aeglna.
The canal reduces the distance from
Adriatic ports about 175 miles, and
from Mediterranean ports about 100
miles. Its length is about four miles.
Remarkable Bridges.
Perhaps the most remarkable bridges
in the world are the kettle bridges In
Hussla and Siberia, of which Cossack
soldiers are expert builders. They are
built up on the soldiers' lances and
cooking kettles. Seven or eight lances
are placed under the handles of a num
ber of kettles and fastened by means
of ropes to form a raft Each of these
rafts will bear the weight of half a
ton. "

RHEUMATISM
AN INDESCRIBABLE TORTURE
Because Rheumatism sometimes comes on suddenly it doesn't
prove that it is a chance disease or one due to accidental causes. It
takes time for it to develop, and is at work in the system long before
any symptoms are felt The blood is the first point of attack, and
the poisonous acids that cause the aches and pains are then distrib
uted through the circulation to different parts of the system, and
settle in joints, muscles and nerves ; and when the system is in this
condition it needs only some exciting cause like exposure to night air,
damp, chilly weather, or the cold, bleak winds of winter, to arouse
the slumbering poisons and bring on Rheumatism. The severity
of the attack depends upon the amount of acid in the blood and the
CUantitv of acrid mat(r in tins
joints and muscles. Some peo
ple are almost helpless from the
