The plaintiffs al lege that they had options on prac tically all the minority stock. Counsel for Mr. Schwab said to day that neither Mr. Schwab nor any of those interested with him were disturbed by the suit, but that Mr. Schwab's answer would be filed in due time. ---- OOO------ EMBROIDERY HOOPS. Th» Best Covering 1» Tape an Inch Wide. If rings or embroidery hoops are used, they should be frequently re wrapped. It Is not unusual to see hoops In the hands of apparently daln ty women so dirty they are a disgrace to her cleanliness, not to speak of the ruinously black lines they leave on the work. The best covering for hoops is a very thin tape aliout an inch wide, wound •o that one edge just barely laps over the other. As a whole bolt of tape may be bought for a few cents, there Is absolutely no excuse for dingy cov •rings The silver rings in vogue several years ago are really uot very practical. If wrapped they had much ts-tter be wood, and if unwrapped the Inevitable tarnishing, unless the greatest care la exercised. will leave ugly stains on delicate materials The two parts of the embroidery hoops should flt so tightly that a cer tain amount of pressure must be •» •rted to flt them together after ths work is spread on them Fit the work smoothly over the lower ring before getting on the top.

"So you are like your ctdebrated an cestor, a doctor?” remarked Tisdale. “I follow his footsteps,” replied GuU lotin The doctor seemed to prefer Mlle. Mlcbeau and became her escort for the evening. It was 1 o'clock before the party bfluuglit up In a cafe on one of the boulevards for supper. “I shall have to leave you very soon.” said tbe stranger. “Having ac cepted your hospitality thus far, J grant that you will drink a bottle with me?” “Certainly. But why leave us?" "Tbe «iteration I spoke of.” “An operation! So early In tbe mom- Ingl” exclaimed Mlle, de Four. "You’ll kill the patient,” said Mil*. Mlcheau. "Better wait for daylight.” “I do not expect the patient will sur vive," said the doctor. There was a certain chill in bls voice that summunlcated itself to tbe others. There was something uncanny In the fact of a man's leaving a gay supper party to perform an operation on a person tbe result of which be expected would be fatal. Tisdale, to banish tbe disagreeable feeling, seized a glass of wine and, clluklng It with the others, drank success to tbe doctor's operation. “It will be successful,” said the sur geon. “It Is an operation I have per formed often, and I uever fall." “But I thought you said the patient would not survive it,” said Mlle. ML "He will not, but bls death has noth ing to do with my skill In operating That is another matter.” As be spoke a waiter uncorked a bot tle of champagne, the wine spouting and deluging the glasses Tbe doctor took up hla glass, bowed affably to th« three, touched his li(>a to It set It down and offered his hand to each. Thera was a coldness lu It that added to th* chill. Then he was gone “M. de Parle is looking very well this morning." said a gentleman sit ting near "He goes to attend to th* case of Gavltz, tbe wife murderer." Tbe girls with Tisdale turned pale. “Who Is M. de Paris?” asked Tisdale. “Our companion for the evening the public executioner!” gasped Mlle. Ml cheau.

SUNSET MAGAZINE SAM FRANCISCO. CALIFORNIA LUMBAGO. Diet and Treatment For Thie Distreee- ing Affection. This distressingly painful affec tion is muscular rheumatism located in the large muscles of the loin. The attack usually comes on quite suddenly, sometimes seizing the suf ferer in the middle of a walk with out the slightest premonition. The pain is intense and is increased by th*» slightest motion of the body. The victim of lumbago or any other form of muscular rheumatism becomes painfully aware of the fact, which perhaps he had not before realized, <li the great flexibility of the body am! of the intimate rela tion between the different parts of the body, for it seems impossible for him to make any motion what ever of the head or of the arms without feeling a sharp twinge in the back. He dare not turn in bed, Lift his head or even raise his arms, for every movement seems to be originated and performed by the sore back muscles. There may be a little swelling of the affected region, but usually there is no external sign of the great well of misery lying just be neath the skin. The pain lasts a few days or a week and may then disappear as rapidly as it came, al though there is often considerable soreness or an occasional twinge for a day or two. Lumbago may be distinguished from pain in the back due to other causes by the fact that the agony is extreme whenever the slightest movement is made and is absent or at least bearable when the patient lies perfectly quiet in bed, and also that the muscles are tender when gently squeezed. The affection is more common in men than in wom en and attacks adults chiefly, the muscular rheumatism of children taking the form usually of wryneck. Why this should lie so it is difficult to say. Lumbago occurs more frequently in gouty persons, although that i> no explanation, since we do not know why the loins should suffer in gouty individuals more than the muscles of the neck. In mild cases the drinking of an abundance of water to which some baking soda is added may give a measure of relief. Gentle rubbing of the parts with a cloth dipped in ammonia and hot water will often mitigate the suffering, Hnd after the rubbing a cloth wet with this solution may be laid on the parts and covered with a hot water bottle. The diet should be light, without meat or highly seasoned food and especially without beef tea or meat broths of any kind The bowels should be kept open. One who is subject to lumbago should be careful to avoid a chill and should live frugally, drinking only plain water or milk. Sometimes the attacks are pre vented or made less frequent by the wearing of a broad flannel belt ovei the underclothing, v \ BULL EXERCISER. A Devioe That Hardens Muscle and Tonee Down Temper. The necessity of some form of exer cise for the stock bull has long been recognized, and many devices have been experimented with. Mr. F. E. Dawley In Country Gentleman pro nounces the pole and sweep shown lu tbe cut the most satisfactory device that he has ever used. Mr. Dawley describee the device as follows, and tbe arrangement Is easily understood, although one of the chains alluded to to uot discernible In the cut: It is made by setting a heavy post deeply in the ground, letting It extend up about six feet. A band is placed on the top, and a section of an old steel wagon axle with the box attach ed is driven Into the end. This post should not be less than ten inches if F.

A hardwood sweep Is cut and the center of gravity de termined by balancing It over a saw horse. A hole Is then bored through this sweep at the center of gravity and the box securely fastened Into it. It Is then set back en the axle, thff Sweep swinging on the axletree. Two short v chains are attached to the small end of the sweep. To the lower end ot one of these a swivel bar clevis Is at tached. To the other a very heavy snap is fastened. A piece ot old two inch tug or a strong leather collar la placed on tbe bull’s neck, being held tn place by two short flat head bolts, which are far better than a buckle, And a ring is placed on this collar. When the bull is led out before liber ating him ft>m the staff the large snap on one of the chains Is snapped Into this ring. The bar clevis Is then screw ed Into the ring in the bull’s nose, when he is ready to take his exercise. The first time uu animal Is hitched It may be necessary to drive him around und to work the sweep for him in order to get him accustomed to it. The chains should be so adjusted that the one attached to the strap on hla neck will swing the sweep It should be long enough ao he enn reach the ground. By the use of this device I have kept a bull until he was four teen years old In such condition that his muscles were hard anti firm and he was vigorous and virile. One great advantage In exercising the animal« In thia way is that they become Ac customed to being handled and are very giuch more tractable than when kept tied tn the pens or when simply led out anil put In a tread power once or twice a day for half an hour.
