    IT 13 A RCMARKABLE BOAT.
Can Sail Ag-slnst Any Wind and la
Six Inches of Water.
There is on Lake Blntin, In this
county, oue of the most peculiar boats
In the country. It will not do to call It
a sail'jo.it, says tue St. Paul Pioneer
Press, for, although it is driven by
the wind, It has no sails. The term
stern-wheeler is sonipwhat a misnomer,
foK that name indicates something by
steam, or gasoline, neither of which
this strange boat uses.
The machinery consists of a wind
mill, set up in the center of the boat,
the wheel of the mill being connected
with the shaft on which the wheel that
drives the boat Is hung at the stern,
and when the wind blows and drives
the (w!inlmill around the windmill
turns the paddle wheel at the back
of the boat and she moves forward
through the water.
The boat is made with a flat bottom
and Is quite wide, so that it draws
only a few inches' of water, and inas
much as there is no propeller to be
come tangled In weeds beneath the
surface, the boat can sail over the
water anywhere where It is six Inches
deep, and is therefore in great demand
when the season for gathering water
lilies arrives.
The windmill Is so adjusted that the
power it gives to turn the paddle
wheel Is far in excess of the resistance
the boat offers to the pressure of the
air upon it, and the boat therefore
moves easily forward, directly against
the wind, although driven by the pow
er of the wind alone.
This IiiulvLB il very convenient tn
use, for although It is, in reality, a sail
boat, there Is never any danger of its
getting caught against a lee shore
and being unable to get away. All
the helmsman has to do Is to turn the
prow directly into the wind and con
nect the power, and away she goes,
skipping over the water as lightly as a
bird upon the wing.
Theodore Pettinan, of Wheatley, Is
the maker and owner of the boat, and
he has had so many orders for dupli
cation of it that he is liable to go Into
the manufacture of others like It

"It Is Ignorance and race prejudice
that lead immigration restrictionists to
classify Jewish immigrants among th
undesirable," declared a Chicago
banker of the race. "There is no such
thing as a grave Jewish problem in
this country. Statistics show that the
accession of hundreds of thousands of
'ignorant' and 'Russian' Jews by im
migration In recent years has not bur
dened the rich Jews. On the contrary,
It has helped to make them and the
country as well richer and more pros
perous. As to the differences between
the liberal Americanized Jews and the
newly arrived orthodox Jew's there is
nothing to be exercised over. For
brethren to quarrel occasionally Is but
natural. But no matter how bitter
the attack of the orthodox Jew on the
liberalized Jew, the tenets of strict
orthodox Judaism "command that, all
differences between Jew and Jew
must be forgiven and forgotten on
the eve of Atonement day. No scene
can be more Impressive than that in
Jewish homes and in orthodox syna
gogues on the eve of Kol Xidre, when
those who have happened to quarrel
during the year tearfully extend the
hands to one another, earnestly pray
ing forgiveness."
An article published in a newspaper
of Hungary recently led to thirteen

oughly one and one-quarter pounds of
chopped pecaus, ot very fine. Line a
box on the bottom and sides, first
with ordinary blank paper, then with
paraffin paper, and pour in the candy,
pressing it down to form a smooth,
compact mass. Lay paraffin paper on
the top and set aside to become cold
and dry. The nougat may then be
readily slipped from the box and
sliced nicely with a sharp knife. The
slices should be wrapped in paraffin
paper.

How Many
Birthdays ?
You must have had sixty at
least! What? Only forty?
Then it must be your gray
hair. Ayer's Hair Vigor stops
these frequent birthdays. It
gives all the early, deep, rich
color to gray hair, and checks
falling hair. And it keeps the
scalp, clean and healthy.

school, and as this was an important
event In the district, the pupils had
been -Instructed to memorize a verse
or two to recite for the entertainment
of the visitor.
b During he delivery of his lines, one
small boy was especially noticeable
for the action with which he accom
panied his words; so much so that the
teacher, surprised at his efforts, com
niended him highly on the ease with
which he spoke and the apparent prac
tice which he must have put on the
piece.

as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play when in health
and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor
life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and
u ,Iesome diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health
should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of
every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature and if ar any time a
remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence
snould be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial
in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by
the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in
many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and
excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has also met; with the approval of physicians generally, be
cause they know it is wholesdme, simple and gentle in its action. We inform
all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained,
dv an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most benefici
ally and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian
blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret rem
edy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not
approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication.
rlease to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup
of Figs always has the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co.
plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in
bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty
cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not
accept it. It you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects,
