The many, who live better than others and enjoy life more, with less expenditure, by more promptly adapting the World’s best products to the'neeas of physical being, will attest the value to health of the pure, liquid laxative principles embraced in the remedy, Syrup of Figs. Its excellence is due to its presenting in the form most acceptable and pleasant to the taste, the refreshing and truly beneficial properties of a perfect laxative ; effectually cleansing the system, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers ana permanently curing constipation. It has given satisfaction to millions and met with the approval of the medical profession, because it acts on the Kidneys, Liver and Bowels without weakening them and it is perfectly free from every objectionable substance.

THE ELUSIVE COCKROACH. The Fro* Pre*. Telle of a Companionable Fellow. The flea which you’ve got when you haven’t bun is fairly nimble and active, but be is nothing In the line of agility compared to the cockroach. The latter Is so elusive that you wonder If he is real or fanciful. A certain cockroach bus annoyed the writer for a long time. It must be the same one, for he has an individuality there is no mistaking. There are all kinds of cockroaches just as there are all kinds of people. This cockroach Is always de trop. He always appears at an Inopportune moment. Right in the climax of an article be presents himself and of course distracts attention by his presence. It is remarkable how obnoxious he makes himself. He appears on the corner of the desk and looks at you In his horrible familiar fashion. He does not present himself modestly and apologize for coming, or resentment, might not be to strong. But he deliberately sits In front of you and glares at you in the most insulting manner, almost as though be were sneezing at the magnificent thoughts which are being placed on paper. He is such an oldtimer and he has seen so many magnificent thoughts! He has been coming like this so long! He has seen others sitting at that desk and also penning magnificent thoughts. He is a most arrant cynic. The most tender pathos that causes the tears of the writer to fall and blot the pages do not move him. He never changes countenance. He has seen other occupants seated there and is not moved by any kind of emotion. He has no patriotism and will look at the most fervid utterances unmoved. He doesn’t care whether the country is saved or not Even a charming poem is not solace for his soul. As he sits there you resent his presence and aim at him a swift blow, but iiban instant he is gone. He is accustomed to dodging. He has been doing that for many generations. Poetry is his especial aversion, although he dislikes pathos exceedingly. Once it is ou record tnat he disappeared of his own free will The writer at the moment of his noiseless entrance was about to write a poem in keeping with the season: "0. snow, anew, beautiful snow, Watch the whlrlluj flakes as they go, 0, the auow the beautiful snow." Then for the first time he left the scene without dodging. He disappeared as fast as be could scud and did not come again for a week. It was feared that he had expired behind the debris above the desk, but one night he came and perched himself as usual on the corner of the desk. He looked rather thin and worn, but otherwise he seemed In good health. It takes a good deal to kill a cockroach. Some of the former occupants say that they have really hit him before he could get away, but he always got off and recovered in his lair. His sense of humor is dead or sleeping. A writer about ten years ago, however, wrote a joke that scintillated. It pleased him so much that be read it aloud and roared. The cockroach heard it and even he could not resist it. At first it merely tickled him, and then the more he thought about it, the better he liked it He shook all over and finally got up on his hind legs and waved his arms and shouted. At least so the writer of the joke said and he was a truthful man! The cockroach quite approves of the introduction of the typewriter on the editorial and local staff of this paper. In the beginning he wondered a great deal, but now he has become reconciled to the change. He doesn’t stay on the corner |of the desk any longer, but clambers right up ou the machine. He appears first on one side and then on another. He likes to watch the copy evolved by this means His face expresses real interest. It is not what is written that pleases him, for he is still a cynic in that respect, but the clatter and noise are amusing. He is very careful to dodee the blows of the type and so far ho has escaped with hislife. Whether fortune will favor hltn'in the future is, of course, a matter of mere conjecture. However, he had better look out or he will get hurt some of these days Siam’s Heal Ruler. Her Majesty the Queen Consort of the King of Siam bears the distinction of possssSing less beautiful features and more sound intelligence than any of the women that surround the Siamese Court. Thdugh officially unproclaimed as the Royal Consort, Her Majesty is nevertheless practically supreme in influence, if not in authority. The King has been her constant companion since boyhood, and there is absolutely nothing he would deny her in order to complete the happiness of his clever wife; in fact, it is said that, were she to desire it, he would without hesitation abolish the time-honored custom of his country by casting aside the other wives of his harem. 0 King Chulalonkorn often relies on her wisdom and sound judgment in affairs of the Empire rather than on the advice of the Privy Councillors, although supposed to be well versed in the subtle arts of diplomacy and itatecraft. The Queen possesses the smallest stet of any grown woman in the world. Her boots have very low heels, and are heavily embroidered with pearls and paste diamonds A large Parisian house supplies the majority of Her Majesty’s shoes, and charge her on an average two guineas a pair for them. The Coat or Extra Speed at Sea. Atlantic speed has risen to an average of twenty knots at sea, to be beaten this year, it is confidently expected, by the twenty-one to twentytwo knots of the new Gunarders To secure this extra speed an enormous increase in size Is required; the necessity for this Increase is easily seen from simple calculations on the laws so clearly laid down by Mr. Froude. To put these laws into popular language, one per cent, Increase speed over a given vovage requires two per cent increase in length, six percent. increase in tonnage and fuel, and seven per cent increase in horsepower. Because a torpedo boat has been constructed to run-the measured mile at twenty-five knots it is generally J*.-. A- a-- fi

supposed that a mere Increase of size sufficient for seaworthiness would produce a vessel which could cross the Altantlc at the same speed. So It could, provided we could re-coal every twenty-four hours or (JOO miles; but it is the necessity of carrying the fuel requisite for five days’ steam, or 3,000 miles, which Imposes such gigantic dimensions on fast Atlantic steamers, Insomuch that It will be found that no one of our fast men-of-war could cross the Atlantic at ful* speed. Exact Hospitality. Siberian hospitality is extremely matter-of-fact. The peasants like to visit and treat each other, especially , on high days and holidays; but this hospitality is the result of calculation. When a man is going to visit his neighbor, he never goes straight to his house, but walks along the road, ’ and stops as if by chance at the window and begins a conversation; then, if the master or mistress wishes to see him, they Invite him in. When the “samavar" is ready, they drink tea out of saucers, now and then tak- ’ ing a bite of a piece of sugar. In this way they consume about three cups and then turn the cups upside down, placing on the bottom the remains of the sugar they have been nibbling at As soon as tea is over, the guest 1 rises to go, and then the following ' dialogue invariably takes place:— ' “Why are you in such a hurry?” ’ says tne hostess. “It is time to go home,” answers the guest 1 “Stay a little longer.” “Thank you; you have given me ' plenty to eat and drink. ’’ “There was but little.” 1 “No, there was quite enough; Ihad ’ plenty. ” • This conversation, which always ’ takes place, and is almost mechanically repeated, being ended, the ’ guest approaches the host, and, tak--1 ing his hands, says, “I thank you for the ‘vodka,’ the tea, the sugar, the cake, ” etc. It is indispensable, when returning ‘ thanks to the host, to enumerate ’ everything the guest has consumed ’ during his visit At the end of this 1 catalouge the visitor humbly begs his host to come and see him, which, after a time, he does, and things go on in exactly the same way. Care ! must be taken that viands provided ■ are of equal quantity and quality. 1 If, at any time a man eats or drinks ' more than his host when a guest, on ’ a former occasion, did, quarrels, up- ' braidings, or sarcastic ramarks are ■ the result “I gate them tea and ’ sugar, and they gave me nothing but I tea,” or “I gave them cake, and had 1 nothing but bread in return.” i _ • Wasting Time. ' An old farmer died in a little vll lage In the neighborhood of Paris. 1 His fortune, the fruit of years of patient toil, was invested in a nice, ’ compact little farm. A nephew, believing himself to be heir, called a ■ few days later on the lawyer, and be- ! fore saying a word about the sucees- • sion thought it only right and proper 1 to shed a few tears. 1 “Poor uncle,” he murmured; “so ' kind, so affectionate! To think that 1 1 shall never see him again!” 1 The notary allowed the young man ■ to give full vent to his sorrowful ■ | emotions, after which he quietly ob--1 served, — “I suppose you are aware that your ancle has left you nothing?” “What!” exclaimed the nephew, 1 suddenly changing his tone. “I’m not down in my uncle’s will?” 1 “No.” ' “Then why on earth did you let me stand here weeping and making a 1 fool of myself for a good half hour?” How a Snake Swallows a Frog. 1 The method of swallowing is a very simple one, although if the frog be 1 large more than half an hour may be consumed in the process. The two bones of the lower jaw are seperato I ■ and capable of independent move- '; meat; so the reptile loosens Its hold ’; upon one side of its jaw, and pushing I I that side forward as far as possible, •! it drives the teeth in again and : i then draws the jaw back to its orig. 1 inal position. The result is that the pray is drawn down by the movement. The process is then repeated . by the other half of the jaw, thus inevitably forcing the victim inward. The snake’s skin stretches enorm- ’ ously, and the jaw is of course dislocated, but the extensible ligaments hold the bones together.—Popular Science Monthly. Cattle on Board Ship. Cattle are carried on the spar, main and steerage decks. A large ; steamship like those now used carries I from 1,000 to 1,500 head. The comI partments lire just large enough to let the animals lie down or roll about a little. The beasts are tied in these immediately they are driven aboard. A stodt rope is afterwards put about the animals’ horns then passed through a hole in a three-inch board at the head of the stall and knotted on the other side. Fresh straw is put into the stalls every day, and the animals are well fed and watered during the voyage. Just the Tiling. A wag was on a visit to a lunatic ' asylum, says the Buffalo Express, and as the physician in charge was taking him about, it happened that several of the wilder patients were screaming I in cbwus. “One of the hardest problems I have to deal with,” said, the doctor, “is to find employment for those in my charge. They are so much better off, you know, if they are occupied in some way.” .“Doctor," said the visitor, after a moment’s thought, “why don’t you set them to inheriting college yells?” To Render Wood Uninflammable. th An expert chemist says that a paint or wash made of skiin milk, thoroughly skimmed, and water brine, will render wood uninflammable, and he proved it by experiment He said this paint or whitewash, is durable, very cheap, impervious to water, of agreeable color, and, as it will prevent wood irom taking fire, urged its use, particularly on roofs, outbuildings, barns, etc. If the salary is large enough, there is no position so difficult that the average man isn’t sure he can fill it w •- ' ■ u

Aa Empress’ Whims. Tbe Emprese Josephine had C. 00,000 francs for her personal expense*, but thia sum was not sufficient, and her tiehta increased to an appalling degree. Notwithstanding the position of her husband, she could never submit to either order or etiquette in her private life. She rose at 9 o’clock. Her toilet consulted much time, and she lavished unwearied efforts on the preservation and embellishment of her person. She changed her linen three times a day, and never wore any stockings that were not new. Huge baskets were brought to her containing different dresses, shawls and hats. From these she selected her costume for the day. Sh* possessed between 800 and 400 shawls, and always wore one in the morning, which she draped about her shoulders with unequaled grace. She purchased all that were brought to her, no matter at what price. The evening toilet was as careful as that of the morning; then she appeared with flowers, pearls or precious stones in her hair. The smallest assembly was always an occasion for her to order a new coetume, in spite of the hoards of dresses in the various palaces. Bonaparte was irritated by these expenditures; he would fly into a passion, and his wife would weep and promise to be more prudent, after which she would go on in the same way. It is almost incredible that this passion for dress should never have exhausted itself. After the divorce she arrayed herself with the same care, even when she saw no one. She died covered with ribbons and pale rosecolored satin. H*g Against Rattlesnake, A friend tells us of a fight he wit Cessed, last week, between a rattle snake and a hog. To use his own language: “I had just started up the steep hill beyond Toms creek, going to Roans creek, when my attention was attracted to a hog near the road, •champing and walking around with bristles erect, with two smaller hogs some few fedtaway looking on. Reining to a better view I saw a good-sized rattlesnake coiled, head erect, and his rattles sounding the note of anger. The sow, with head down and bristles erect, was slowly walking around the snake, champing her teeth together and the foam running from her mouth. Presently the snake struck at her but missed his aim, the sow springing to one side at the moment -the snake struck. Instantly the snake was again coiled and his rattle ringing. The sow renewed her circling, the snake following, with Iris head always facing the hog. Soon he struck again and fastened his fangs on her jaw below the ear. She raised her head and the cnake was fastened to her. Instantly she caught the snake in her mouth, put her feet on his tail and stripped the skin up. Renewing her foot-hold on the body of the snake, she took another pul and tore the snake in two, and then, tearing off a part of the quivering snake, she complacently set to eating it up. The other two hogs now advanced, but the old sow took up the pieces of the snake and walked off a few steps, and set to finishing the feast. I had seen enough and rode on.”— Linden (Tenn.) Times. The Sunflower’s Fidelity to the Sun. That the sunflower follows the sun in its westward journey is well known, but when does it turn its face back again to the east to greet the morning sun ? Mr. C. A. White, of Washington, in a letter to Nature, relates an incident which throws some light upon the subject. Ore evening, he says, during a short stay at a village in Colorado, in the summer of 1881, I took a walk along the banka of a long irrigating ditch just as the sun was setting. The wild variety of Helianthus annus grew abundantly there, and I observed that th* broad faces of all the flowers were, as usual in the clear sunset, turned to th* west. Returning by the same path less than an hour afterward, and immediately after the daylight was gone, I found to my surprise that much the greater part of those flowers had already turned their faces full to the east in anticipation, as it were, of the sun’s rising. They had in that short time retraced the semicircle, in the traversing of which, with the sun, they had spent the whole day. Both the day and night were cloudless, and apparently no unusual conditions existed that might have exceptionally k affeeted the. movements of the flowers. Ice-Bergs. The following apparatus indicates automatically the presence of blocks of ice or icebergs about ships. A case is suspended from the side of the ship enclosing a bimetallic thermometer with a small rod attached to the helix, which moves right or left accordingas the temperature of the latter rises or tails. Wben the temperature falls the rod comes against a small metallic knob and thus closes a circuit ringing a bell placed near the officer on watch. s /// 6 I ( mi Profoundly Grateful For Help Derived from Hood’s Sarsaparilla "I am profoundly Impressed with the medical Virtues of Hood’s Sat eapartlla.

Reault of a Woman’* Pluck. One of the most striking ingtancei of what a woman can do in this era of woman'* emancipation Is the energetic and brainy action of Mrs. H. W. R. Strong, a pampas grower near th* town of Whittier, CAI. Mra Strong has a ranch of 320 acres on the southern slopeof the Pnente hifls. At one time a treeless mesa. It Is now a lovely so tn I-tropical estate covered with orange, walnut, fig, olive, and other fruit trees, its cottage embowered in foliage and surrounded by choice flowers. Four years ago Mrs. Strong decided to plant pampas grass between her rows of young walnut trees and procured choice stock from Mr. Stewart of Los Angeles. In 1890 she marketed 134,000 plumes In Philadelphia, at from »30 to SOS a thousand. Last year her crop amounted to nearly 300,000 plumes.— Californian. Balloon Mlgnala. A method of signalling from bdloons has been devised by an Englishman, which consists In connecting a number oLelectric lamps In a balloon to the earth by moans of a special form of flexible cable. Current can then be supplied the lamps from the ground through the cable and they can be lighted or extinguished by a switch located on the ground. Th* advantage of this system over the older forms *f war signalling balloons is that a small and readily portable balloon can be used, as it carries no car and all it is called upon to raise is simply th* weight of the lamps and the .ttached cable. Into the Trap. Most of the people at the table were men, says Drake's Magazine, and they were making merry over the subject of feminine vanity. At last one of the few women present felt moved to Say a word. “Os course women are vain,” she remarked, “and equally, of course, men are not vain. Why,” she added, with a glance around the table, “at this very moment the necktie of the handsomest man in the room Is up the back of his collar.” Then she smiled, for every man present had put his band behind his neck. Japanese Names. Many of the pretty and suggestive little words that serve as names for Japanese girls are as charming in English as in Japanese. It is notuncommon for a Jap girl to bear the name of a flower.- On the other hand, however, many girls in Japan bear the names of some domestic utensil, as frying pan or dust brush. Doubtless this results from the custom among some peoples of naming a child for the first object that strikes the eye after the little one bas come into the world. A Charitable View. In the case of the feminine doctor of West Virginia accused of alienating the affections of Mrs. Brewer’s husband, it appears that the husband visited the doctor, not the doctor the husband. Possibly his object was to lighten the bills by going to the doctor’s for treatment —St Louis Post-Dispatch.

Toagtaened Olae*. From the result* of a large number of experiments Itts found that the elasticity of toughened glase Is more than double that of ordinary glaas, and that toughened sheets bend much more readily than ordinary aheets. Single toughened glass has a re&lstanco 2 5 times, and deml doubl* toughened glass a resistance 3.1 times that of ordinary double glass. Polished toughened sheets, of thickness varying from O.OOG meter to G. 013 meter, have a resistance 3.07 times as great as that of ordinary sheets of the same thickness, and the resistance of rough toughened sheets Is 5.33 times that of ordinary rough sheets.
