Maeterlinck is among those who have freed themselves from the bond- age of tobacco by means of a curious artifice. According to his biographer, M. Gerard Harry, "without the help of tobacco he seemed incapable of re ceiving inspiration or crystallizing it in words. If he has not overcome the need, he has outflanked it Smoking, he noticed, had lost its virtue as a stimulant, and instead of rousing the brain to activity, as at first, had come to disturb its functions; so now, in lieu of ordinary tobacco, he fills his bowl with a denicotinized preparation, tasteless indeed, bat harmless. His pipe is still always alight when the pen is busy, but it is hardly more now than a mere subterfuge intended to cheat and so satisfy an irresistible mechanical craving."

NO DOUBT THAT RESINOL DOES STOP ITCHING It Is a fact that the moment resinol ointment touches ltchine skins, the Itching stops and healing begins. With the aid of resinol soap, it almost al ways clears away all trace of eczema, Summer rashes, pimples, or similar tormenting, unsightly eruption Quick ly, leaving the skin clear and healthy And the best of it is you need never hesitate to use resinol soap and resi nol ointment. Resinol is a doctor's prescription which for twenty years has been used by careful physicians for many kinds of skin affections. They know that its soothing, healing action is brought about by medica tion so bland and gentle as to be suit ed to the most delicate or irritated skin. Resinol ointment and resinol soap are sold by all druggists. Adv. PUTS THE INTELLECT FIRS Educator Asserts That Its Train:! of Mora Importance Than la That of the Body. Commenting on the theory, bow so popular, that educators should concen Irate on the training of hands rather than the training of minds. If the young persons of our land are to grow Into useful men and women, Mary Leal Harkness, writing in the Atlan tic gives it as her opinion that It is a tremendous fallacy that the pos sessor of only the trained hand can hope with any well-founded confidence to bo included in that desirable com pany which Is both interesting and In- terested. - 'If you could persuade every wom an to sweep a floor properly, I doubt much it she could still be guaranteed an agreeable companion for a rainy Sunday," continues the writer. you could teach every whlte wing in any city to remove the dirt of the streets in the most duBtless and sani tary manner known to science, I still Question whether you would wish him to come to your library for an eve ting of uplifting conversation. And he would be equally lacking la re sources for self-entertainment to his unemployed hours. "It there is anything beneath the stars more pitiable than the elderly man or woman with no intellec tual resources from which to draw occupation and Interest, I have not yet seen it On the other hand, there Is nothing which so effectively robs the prospect of old age of its terrors as the sight of the scholarly wearer of whitened-hair which crowns a head still vigorous and young through the happy preservative agency of trained and much-used Intellect No mechanical process can guar antee to us an Interesting life, or Insure us against boredom. But just because It is something more than mechanical process a college educa tion of the right sort comes nearer doing this than any other agency we know certainly nearer than any drill In cow-milking or scientific cooking Its value to us and to the future ot our country is beyond estimation. U the time ever comes when 'vital' is taken to be synonymous with lucra tive;' when the life ot the mind and the training of the mind are set be low those of the body; when intelli gence, as a means to a full and sat isfying life, is superseded by prophy laxis and hygiene then we may well wish that we had listened to a wiser teacher."

"Spot!" in Gne Bcorn snorted the landlord of the Atlantic and Pa cific hotel at Rampage, Okla. "Say, looky yur!

Spot the devil!" Kansas City Star. - Costa Rican Industry. The decline of the banana Industry In Costa Rica for several years past has become very noticeable and its effects are strongly felt in the busi ness life of the country, for Costa Rica formerly led in the production of bananas. Plantations have become af fected by an incurable disease, and as a result the largest growing and ship ping company has found it more prof Habit to cultivate new plantations In other countries, building new wharves and constructing new railways, than to attempt to stamp out the disease. GAY COLORS BANNED UNIFORMS OP SOLDIERS ARB NO. LONGER CONSPICUOUS. Elaborate Costumes That Wen) Worn by Combatants of the Last Two Centuries Are No Longer 8ssn on the Battlefield. . The soldier's dress has been simpli fied to bare necessities. It was other wise in the old times. The military regulations of the eighteenth and the, greater part of the nineteenth centu ries furnish one long record, of altera tions of costume, "of solemn Injunc tions as to laces, loops, frogs, buttons,' facings, epaulets, "wings," and what not - The dressing of the soldier's hair was a special object of concern. Un til the end f the eighteenth century the hair was "an-elaborate arrange ment of grease .and powder.' Three shillings per man was the allowance in 1794 for these two toilet adjuncts. and the cost to the country four shil lings four pence for pipe-clay and whiting with which to furbish up bla white breeches and leather appur tenances. To make up for this out lay he was expected to make shift with the renewal of only halt of his waistcoat the fore part the hind part having to be made out of that' of the preceding year! 60 ran the' regulations of 1783. In 1795 powder was discontinued by the non-coms and the rank and file. but it was still the regulation tor officers. When the Twenty-ninth now the Worcestershire one of the trim mest regiments In the army, was sta tioned at Weymouth in 1797 an order was issued directing that the hair was to be dressed "with one curl on each side; the toupee turned and not too long; the club to be tied high and to. be more broad at the top than at the bottom; the rosette to be all ribband nnd not more than eight inches in di ameter, the ribband and rosette to be perfectly black and put on after pow dering." The Grenadlera and light Infantry officers were to have their hair dressed "the same as the men, excepting their side locks, which may come down so as to cover the open part of the ear, but never lower, and must be frizzed so as not to blow about" Queues were worn until 1808. The soldier's hat has been the sub ject of continual experiment and change, from the picturesque hat of 1686, with its broad brim turned up on one side and ornamented with' whits ribbon, to the mean looking Broderick cap. In 1751 the three- cornered cocked hat was in favor; then came the 'mposlng miter can.: converting the wearer Into a sort of miniature pope; and this was fol lowed by a bearskin of a similar shape. In 1778 light infantry wore leather caps almost as small as skull caps, with a large round peak. The officer's hat of 1798 was a most elabo rate and expensive affair, ornamented with the finest black ostrich, feathers, with a standup feather of red and black. The Bhako, the most hideous bat ever contrived, commenced Its long reign m law, when It supplanted the cocked hat Originally it was of lacquered felt with a peak, a lane brass p'ate in front and a red and black tuft on the crown rising from a small black cockade; and after many variations it disappeared In 18711 when the cork helmet became he regulation hat, in its turn to be su perseded by the khaki cap, which, all things considered, is about the best headgear yet devised London Globe.
