Aren't they darlings! May I hold them a mouieutT I should Just love to; they are so cute." The speaker was a comely, matronly looking woman, well, though some what showily, dressed. She was one of a motley crowd tht stood before an exhibition platform In a dime museum. On the platform sat a garish young woman, who, on the show bills, was "the peerless Circassian beauty." She wore very short skirts, as real Circas sian beautiva always do, and her high heeled satin slippers aud crimson silk en hose were undoubtedly Imported from the wilds of Circa sal a. Her hair stood up lu a great mass, like the boll of a ripened daudellou. It was proba bly a wig. but it was the orthodox style of beauty for the dime museum "Cir caah." At the feet of the beauty lay the "dar lings" which had evoked tbe woman visitor's admiring' exclamation. They were not tmuir, ui a iu vi u.B wond-baokiil rattlers, tint deadlitet of the rattlesnake tribe, fcatvlj- cagea lu a den of wire and glass, they couid do no harm, but at earn of the hourly ex hibitions given In the museum the Cir cassian beauty would take the veuom ous reptiles from their den, fondle them and, as tbe museum patrons ex pressed it. "do stunts" w ith them. The beauty looked somewhat suspiciously at the woman who had made the re quest. "Don't," -she exclaimed. "They're the most poisouuus of all snakes and their bite means almost certain death. The managers would not allow you to touch them and it might cost you your life. ' "lluh! 1 ain't afraid," was the re ply. "I was ie the business before you was born and handled snakes that was a deal trickier than rattlers. Water moccasins, black and puff adders and venomous reptiles from all parts of the world. Once." she added proud ly. "I owned a cobra." The woman on the platform Incontinently surrendered and allowed the visitor to take her pets. which the stranger fondled as a fond mother would a baby. "Oo wouldn't hurt mamma, would oo?" she cooed as the ugly, flat head of the rattler lay against her cheek. The snake darted out its forked tongue, but it did not spring Its rattles. The glitter of Its beady eyes showed that It was fully conscious of what was taking place but it evidently enjoyed being caressed by the veteran. "Even the most venomous snakes are harmless as long as they sre treated right," said the woman. "They love to be petted and stroked, just as a cat does. If they are tormented, they are likely to strike. Battlerare tbe easiest of all snakes to handle, for they won't bite without giving warning. Nearly always they will coll for a strike, and invariably they will spring their rattles. "I was in the business nearly fifteen years. In that time I was Ditten more than a score of times, but It was al ways because of my own carelessness. I always kept antidotes at band and never suffered from a bite more than most persons would from the sting of a bee, snakes- nave always oeen one of tbe best cards In museums and side shows. In nine cases out of ten the reptiles are handled by women. The act proves more attractive tS the public than when they are handled by men. Besides, women take to snakes more readily than men. Perhaps they in herited that from old Mother Eve," and the speaker laughed at the suggestion. New York Sun. WESTERN MONEY IS DIRTY. Eastern Cities Grab tbe New Currency Xasned by Treasury Department. The bulk of the paper currency In cir culation throughout the West is well worn and often exceedingly filthy by reason of Its long use. A crisp new bill ls a curiosity In most Western communities. The currency is kept In circulation so long that it will hardly bold together, while it is redolent of . the foulest of smells. That which is , returned to the Treasury Department ! from Chicago for replacement la said j to be the worst of alL It is so bad that rency Is handled. Those who have ta bles where New York, Boston, Phila delphia or Washington money is han dled are considered very fortunate. From these towns come money for re demption which la practically new. Many banks In the East make It a rule to never put out old money. Many of the bills from Washington have never been folded. The chief of the redemption division explains that a New York bank which would pay out such money as Is handed over the Chicago bank counters could not do business. Its customers would not have the soiled and ragged money. Many go further and say the filthy money ls dangerous. The facts do not bear this out There never has been a case of contagious sickness in the de partment which could be traced to con taminated bills. The reason why the West gets dirty money and tbe East gets clean money rests entirely witn the banks. The Eastern banks supply new currency because their customers refuse to ban die the other kind. The Western banks give out dirty currency because their customers do not protest It costs the banks extra to get new money. It costs 20 cents per fl.000 to send old money to the department for redemp tion and Its costs the same amount to get the new bills, a total cost of 40 cents. The Government pays the ex pressage on stiver. The banks say that they would be glad to furnish new bills If the Government would pay the ex pressage. Unquestionably they would. But the Eastern banks find it no bard ship and are glad to pay the express age to keep the new currency on hand. If all the banks In the country would suddenly decide to use only new bills over their counters the bureau of en graving and printing would be unable to anpply the extra demand. This Is the one department of the Ooverumeut that runs day and night with three different shifts all day except Sundays and holidays. But If tie bankers should ask for clean money Congress would be glad to furnish the extra printing. The reform for clean money proceeds slowly. On bank nearly always be gins. Sometimes the Kinks let It be known that In their woman's depart ments only new currency will be paid out The Innovation Is usually Infec tious The department knows that when one bank starts others .will fol low. FORTUNE FROM COMIC SONG. Popularity of the Composition Means Money to Composer. The actors who have made their fame on one play, the authors whose reputation rests upon one book, or the orators whose celebrity ls connected with one speech, are not nearly so nu merous as tbe singers who have be come known through one song. The recent death' of "The Great McDer mott," who will go down to posterity as the singer of "By Jingo, We Will," the song which made the term "jingo ism" a familiar term lu the English language, recalls the story of many of these one-achieved Individuals. "The most fickle and difficult to un derstand people In the world," said a theatrical manager a few days ago, "are the comic-song public. Sometimes a song, with absolutely no merit to rec ommend It will go like wildfire, white, on the other hand, some of the moat clever and catchy songs ever written fall as flat as a smoothing Iron. "A song will sometimes be sung by a mu8lu-hall singer which will seem to have In It no more of the elements of popularity than any other song. Yet suddenly It will become all the rage, and will le bummed and whistled by thousands of people all over thecountry who never beard the name of the sing er, aud perhaps never put their foot In the music hall, rrobably, then, a year or two later the same singer will ap pear with a song quite as taking, ap parently, as the first one, yet It will fail to create the slightest stir, and will be a dead letter, except to those who hare heart! It In music balls." Instances of the accuracy of thts gen eralization abound. It was Miss Lot tie Collins who first sang "Ta-ra-boom-de-ay" in a London music ball. Few thought It was a song out of the ordi nary, even those who heard it yet within a . few days all London was humming it, and It was not long before It had become as familiar as "God Save the Queen." It Is said that there are at least a dozen singers of comic songs who are known In the profession as "one-song men." The meaning of tbe title Is, of course, that they have sung one song which completely eclipsed all of their other performances. For lustance, Charles Co born, the man who sung "The Man That Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo." made more money out of other songs, but for one person who knows one of his other songs probably a hundred know this one. ; j Other familiar Instances of the one song success are Anna Held's "Won't Yon Come and Play With Mer and Ernest Hogan's "Who Said Chicken in This Crowd?" Both of these have sung many another song, but none of the others has had such extreme pop ularity. The authors of "Little Annie . Kooney," "After the Ball Is Over" and j other equally well-known songs are almost unknown, yet In many cases j their one song carried them to tempo rary fame. New York Times. NEW KIND OF RAILROAD TIES. South American Mora Timber to lie Tried by Pennsylvania Uoad. The Pennsylvania Railroad is soon to begin an experiment with a new kind of wood for ties. Orders have been placed and several consignments of tbe material are now on tbe way from Sooth America, says the Philadelphia Ledger. As soon as tbe vessels arrive preparations will be made for placing the ties at points along tbe main Hue and ii and around Philadelphia. The ties are of Mora wood, and come from British Guiana. It Is claimed for them that they will last fifty years, the tim ber being exceedingly bard and pos sessing the quality of durability. The present ties last from three to ten years. Tbe purchasing price alone for each tie of the Mora wood Is $1, and the delivery price about $1.50. Tbe cost of the white oak ties, which the road has been using, is about 75 cents each. There have been many experiments made during the last twenty-five years to procure some material for ties that will stand tbe severe tests from heavy and fast traffic, but thus far no suc cessful results have been attained. Many patent preservative processes have been resorted to, such as cneml cals to preserve the wood, cement en cased In steel and steel plates bent into oval or semi-half moon shape. Just now tre Lake hbore and Michigan Southern Railway is experimenting on its main line, near Sandusky. Ohio. with a design of steel ties constructed from old worn out slxty-flve-pound steel rails. About $00,000,000 is now spent annu ally by the railroads of the country for renewing worn-out ties, It being esti mated that 112,000,000 new ties are needed each year. The total number of ties now In nse on the railroads of the country is calculated at 780,000,000. This demand Is so great and the here tofore sources of supply are so nearly exhausted, says tbe Black Diamond, that the International Society of Arbo riculture has undertaken to encourage the growing of catalpa trees, with spe cial reference to the need of crosstles for American railways. White oak, canerack, white cedar, chestnut pine and redwood, which have np to this time been used for ties, are' becoming too costly, If not too scarce, to supply the demand from this source. The so ciety suggests that the catalpa be planted along the right of way of rail road lines, not only as a future source of supply, but as a means of adding to the pleasure and comfort of travelers. Ties from this wood, it Is claimed, will last thirty-five years. Nine people out of ten, when they cannot think of anything else for a Christmas present buy two handker chiefs.

Sjv eral years ago I was taken with neural gia and sutlered untold misery. I tried a great many doctors and several remedies with the result that I found temporary relief but I was not cured and began to fear that I never would be. "Then Policeman Keilly, who is a neighbor of ours, recommeuded that I try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and I did so. I thought that tho first box gave mo some relief, and my husband insiMtod that I keep on taking them. I did and I can truly say that these pills are tho ouly medi cine that ever permanently benefited me. "I used to have to give up entirely j and lie down when the pain camo on. My face would swell up so that my eyes would close. The pills have cured all I this and I have had no return of it for the last three years. I keep tho pills constantly on hand as I believe they are a wonderful household remedy. . "To Dr. Williams' rink Pills for Pale Peoplo I owe all the comfort I have enjoyed for the pact three years in being free from neuralgia and I am glad to tie able to recommend them." Many who are now tortured with neuralgia will read w ith interest the above statement which is beyond doubt . as it was given over the signature of j Mrs. William Cotter, whose husband has been Democratic regis-tcr of elec tions in Hartford, Conn., for over 10 years, and wh6 is well known through out the state.

PORTLAND MEED OO., laa W Distinctive Value of Syrup of Figs is due to its pleasant form and perfect freedom from every objectionable quality or substance and to the fact that it acts gently and truly as a laxative, without in any way disturbing the natural functions. The requisite knowledge of what a laxative should be and of the best means for it9 production enable the California Fig Syrup Co. to supply the general demand for a laxative, simple and wholesome in its nature and truly beneficial in its effects; a laxative which acts pleasantly and leaves the internal organs in a naturally healthy condition and which does not weaken them. To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of known value and Syrup of Figs possesses this great advantage overall other remedies, nhat it docs not weaken the organs on which it acts and therefore it promotes a healthful con dition of the bowels and assists one in forming regular habits. Among its many excellent qualities may be mentioned its perfect safety, in all cases requiring a laxative, even for the babe, or its mother, the maiden, or the wife, the invalid, or the robust man. Syrup of Figs is well known to be a combination of the laxative principles of plants, which act most beneficially, with pleasant aromatic liquids and the juice of figs, agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system, when its gentle cleansing is desired. The quality of Syrup of Figs is due not only to the excellence of the combination, but also to the original method of manufacture which ensures perfect purity and uniformity of product and it is therefore all important, in buying, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of every package. , San Francisco, Co.
