Novel Use of Handkerchiefs.
With the Jacobite revolution of 1745 In England Pelham, bethinking himself of an old device which had served the government so well in the most critical period of Anne’s reign, caused to be printed on several thousand handkerchiefs portraits of those of the young pretender’s adherents who had escaped and were in hiding. These portraits, sent all over the country and bung upon every blank wall, led to the capture and'execution of many fugitives.
Powers of Flying Lemur.
The flying lemur lives in the Indian archipelago. It is from two to three feet In length, and is furnished with a sort of membrane on each side of its body connecting its limbs with each other. This is extended and acts as a parachute while it takes its leaps, from a higher to a lower place. Sometimes it will soar from a distance of 800 feet, or about the length of a city block.
But Don't Tear His Shirt.
The woman advanced ominously. “Are you the teacher that tore Henry’s shirt?” “Yes.” “What did you do it for?” "Because Henry was naughty and wouldn’t behave. To make him listen to me I took him by the collar, and he broke away.” The woman swung the ball bat toward the teacher. “Next time he don’t behave,” she said, “you hit him with this.” —Newark News.
Solar Surface Temperature.
The latest estimate of the absolute temperature of the solar surface is that of F. Biscoe of Warsaw, whose computation is based upon the intensity of radiation for individual wave-length in the solar spectrum aS obtained with the spectro-bolometer at the Smithsopian astrophysical observatory. He gets an average of 7,300 degrees plus 100 degrees Centigrade.
Good Way to Test Diamonds.
Suspected diamonds are frequently tested by placing them between two coins and pressed hard with—the fingers. It is said to be impossible to make the smallest impression on a real diamond, but, in the case of a paste article, the edges may be crushed. The effect san be discerned by a critical examination with a lens.
Housewife's Wall.
“Dad, what was the labor of Sisyphus?” “Sisyphus rolled a stone up a hill, and as fast as he rolled It up It rolled down agai n. It was a mythological episode. Nothing like that today.” “Oh, I don’t know,” interposed ma; “Washing dishes is just like that”—Louisville Courier-Journal.
Has Supplied Pitch for Centuries.
An interesting natural phenomenon of the island of Zante in the lonian sea, is a shallow spring on the bay of Kerl, where both pitch and water bubble up. The pitch has been used by the natives In caulking their boats since the days of Herodotus.
Optimist.
An optimist is a woman whose daughter is engaged and whose son cares nothing for the girls. A pessimist is a mother whose son Is on the way to the altar and whose daughter hasn’t a beau. —Claude Callan in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
Unassailable Conclusion.
“I am coming to the conclusion,” observed the restaurant philosopher at luncheon tod:iy,~“tnat the fewer sons-ln-law and brothers-in-law a man in high political life has, the better off he is.” —
She Preferred the Son.
Mr. Goldrox—“So my son has proposed to you, and you’ve accepted him? I think you might have seen me first” Miss Steno—“l did, but I preferred your son.”

Cuttlefish Used as Food.
The sun-dried cuttlefish or devil fish of the Greek coast with suckers intact looks like a football. The shredded part is more tempting than the tentacles.

The most powerful Persian camel, the one humped kind from the province of Khorassan, can carry a 600pound load at a rate of 20 miles a day.

UPSALA CENTER OF SWEDEN
Country’s Most Ancient City, and Vastly Rich in the Nation's History and Tradition.
In all things save the most modern, Upsala is the center of Sweden. In point of education, of religion and of history and tradition, this little city overshadows Stockholm. It is so old that the old gods themselves are said to be buried there. ’ Old Upsala lies a mile or two from‘the more modern city; it is set upon the very ashes of other times. Digging In the earth underfoot brings to light the crude implements of people, our knowledge of whom is little more than theory, as well as the betterfashioned weapons that the Norsemen of the early centuries knew how to wield so well. There are three great mounds or barrows still left at old Upsala, and these are sometimes said to be the tombs of three of the old gods of Norse mythology. The present city of Upsala is cut in two by the River Fyris. On the sloping hill to the westward, surrounded by less important buildings, stand the greatest cathedral and the greatest university In Sweden. The other half of the city is given over to modest dwellings, but from any vantage point on the hillside they make a pretty sight with their characteristic northern neatness and clean lines. The life of the town is strongly colored by the university folk. The student is readily recognizable by his black-trimmed white velvet cap; and he is everywhere, of course, for he makes up about a tenth of the population. Your typical Swedish university man is an athlete and a songster, especially noted for his fine, full choruses. The distant singing of a dozen lusty young voices ofl' a moonlight winter night is one of the most characteristic sounds of Upsala, and one of the little things encountered here and there that stick In the memory. The great brick cathedral is the other striking Institution of Upsala. Here lie buried several of Sweden’s old warrior kings, and here, too, is the tomb of Linnaeus, the father of botany, who was a professor at the university. Before the tomb orLlnnAenrigW'Teeep-" taele filled deep with the cards of famous men who have visited his tomb. Indeed, for long it was something of a custom for European botanists to visit Upsala on the anniversary of the birth of Linnaeus. There is something singularly fitting and attractive in this idea of science making pilgrimages to the tombs of her prophets.
Fortunes to Servants.
Recently a woman who died In Buckinghamshire at the age of eighty-nine left her fortune of £BO,OOO to her coachman, and the' Tate "Lord Burton left £40,000 in annuities to his servants, while the proprietor of a Leicester square restaurant left his woman bookkeeper dose upon £IOO,OOO. The dowager duchess of Wilton left several large bequests to her servants, including the sum of £20,000 to her maid. A Hove surgeon left his fortune to his housekeeper and the very same year a lady in the North of England left her companion £40,000. A Liverpool shipowner left £1,000,000 and remembered in his will every person in his employ both at home and at the offices. His legacies ranged from £50,000 to his manager to £IOO to his office boy. Some years ago a British magnate, after leading his wife to believe herself sole legatee, left her one shilling and bequeathed £72,000 to others, Including £3,500 to a servant whom his wife specially disliked. Of all forms of petty spite the vindictive will is the meanest. Now and then someone gets good re war d for short service. A Sco ttlsh iron master who died recehtly had been entertained in his sickroom by a Scottish piper who played his favorite reel s and laments and strathspeys to his satisfaction. He left the sklrler of the pipes £IO,OOO. —London Mail.
Government Kept Down Prices.
The president of Guatemala has, to a considerable extent, solved the problem of the high cost of living, at least in so far as the poorer classes of Guatemala City and Quezaltenango, the two principal cities of the republic, are concerned. By bls supervision the price of bread is kept toa minimum, and there are government warehouses for the sale of rice, corn, potatoes and bananas, all at fixed prices, for the benefit of the poor people of the two cities named, according to a report from United States Consul James C. Beat. The peons or the poorer class of the inhabitants of the republic, represent fully 75 per cent of the total population. For their benefit the government of Guatemala in September, 1914, shortly following the. outbreak of the European war, Inaugurated a system of government purchase and distribution of flour at and below cost, which has been effective in checking the tendency of Increased prices.
Pisgah Forest a Sanctuary.
Pisgah federal game preserve—-the first of its kind east of the Mississippi river—has been created by a proclamation of the president. The Pisgah national forest, consisting mainly of the George W. Vanderbilt estate, in the western part of North Carolina, which has always been a sportsman’s paradise, will now become more than that—a sanctuary. Hereafter no hunting will be allowed within Its limits, and a mo verifentlsnowpafoot to place a herd of elk and one of buffalo in the preserve, to be perpetuated in the sanctuary thus provided for other game ytlmals t birds and fishes.—Recreation,

COULD NOT EXPECT MORE Two Years’ Illness Cured by Glando The Great Gland Tonls. Mrs. Susan B. Taylor/ 348 S. Williams St., Paulding, Ohio, said: “Two years ago I had a general breakdown. I was nervous, languid, and hardly able to drag around. My liver and kidneys were sluggish and my complexion sallow. I felt sleepy and drowsy most all day, yet I did not sleep well at night. My heart fluttered terribly at times. T was in this miserable condition two- years. A friend persuaded me to try Glando Tonic. The,first treatment helped me. I am taking the sixth treatment and am feeling so well that I gladly recommend Glando Tonic to any one who suffers as I did.” - Nearly every case of poor health is due to Inactivity of the liver, kidneys and other glands. There is enough poison produced in the body , every day to cause poor health if it is not eliminated. This poison can be re-< moved only by keeping the glands in a good working condition. Some of the most common symptoms of inactive glands are headache, dizziness Indigestion, constipation, . backache, pain ‘oh ache under the shoulder blade, biliousness, tonsilitis and quinsy. These conditions can be most quickly-relieved by using Glando the Great Gland Tonic. It restores the glands to action, removes the imparities and builds up the entire system. Sold only in 50-cent treatments and guaranteed to give satisfaction. Manufactured by the Gland Aid Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind, & B. F. Fendig.
J. Blaine Gwin Writes Interesting Article For “Survey.”
“The Survey,” a magazine nublished in New York, has in its March 3, 1917, issue a very interesting article from the pen of J. Blaine Gwin, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Gwin, of this city. The article is entitled “liking Friends of Invaders.” The gist of the article is given by The Survey as follows: “The safe side of the Rio Grande is the side the American troopers are on. So General Pershing and his men were followed home by a great cavalcade that might- have reminded Gibbon of the folk who followed the Asiatic invaders into the Roman empire. Sanitation and relief were looked after by the Red Cross, and admissibility by the immigration authorities. The story of it by Mr. Gwin, secretary of the Associated Charities at El Paso, who acted for the Red Cross and whose earlier article, Over the Bridge at the Border, will be recalled by readers of the Survey for July 8,1916.” One of the most interesting passages in Mr. Gwin’s atricle, as taken from the Survey, follows: “This remarkable exodus of almost the entire population from a rather extensive area, leaving empty casas and deserted villages to follow an invading army to the land of the invaders, has given students of Mexican conditions an opportunity to do some clear and constructive "thinking about the future of that little-understood country. The best, and moot stable people of Mexico have gone from their homes in order to preserve their lives, and what remains of of their property, to enter the land of the ‘hated gringos.’ They have crossed over the border line apparently without fear and without any indication of that hate and ill-feeling about which we have read so much. They have come because this country was at peace and their country was at war; because they did not want to join any Mexican force, but desired only to till their farms and run their mills in peace."

Charity Board to Give. Benefit Picture at Star.
The charity board has arranged with the Star theatre to give a benefit picture next Wednesday, March 21. “Sunshine Mollie” will be produced with Lois Weber as the star at 2:00, 3:15, 4:15, 7.-00, 8:16 and 9:15 p. m. The board has had less calls than any previous year and no long cases of illness. The H. C. L. makes the bills grow fast and we have been unable to help that. The Fi Fi fund with some donations of cash (which is the sweetest, purest charity) provided for our needs until early in February. A generous response to this benefit and a like one Some time in April at the Princess, we are hoping will bring us through the year without having to ask anyone tor money. With the county hospital, the factories coming our way, and ttie wisely generous gift of our late citizen, Benjamin Harris, the outlook for little use for a charity board seems good.

This Stops Hair From Failing Out Dr. Sangerbund, tne famous Paris specialist, first discovered that dandruff and falling hair are caused byza microbe. Then came the discovery of the value of the real Parisian Sage (liquid form) in destroying the dandruff germ and promtply preventing the further loss of hair. The effect of only three days’ use of Parisian Sage is simply marvelous, and the American people have now awakened to the fact that dandruff is just as unnecessary as it is unhealthy, and that, they can be quickly rid of it and save their hair by using a few ounces of Parisian Sage. Parisian Sage is sold for not more that 60 cents a largo bottle by B. f. Fendig. it is jm ideal, daintily P®rfumed liquid, free from grease and stickiness and will surely cause hair to grow soft, lustrous and really seem twice as abundant.
