SPOOK IS HUNGRY

“Hant” Makes Announcement, but Can’t Be Located. Providence (Rhode Island) Clthrena Have a Real Sensation In •Manifestation*” Which Hav* Baffled Elucidation. Residents of Pond street, in Providence, R~ L are *ll on edge, for the house at 207. they assert, is undoubtedly “haunted.” For a week “manifestation*” have been going on there, and when it camo to the point where the cellar was Jammed Ml of curiou* people and * Une was waiting out through th* yard into the street, the police took hold. Tenants said they would move If they could only find a place to move to, and both up and down the street dwellers said if someone did not do something pretty soon they would think of' moving.

It all came about through a “strange voice” which, the neighbors say. emanates from the cellar. A week ago, quoting one of the Pond Streeters, a tenant went Into the cellar and was startled by the voice saying: “Give me something to eat, I’m starving. The tenant upset his coal scuttle, but was not nervous about It He did not want to worry the other tenants, *O he said nothing until someone else, entering the cellar, heard distinctly. •Take me out o’ here.” There was a consultation; tenants laughed when they looked at each other, but they listened when they passed the cellar stairs. A neighboring marketman was called Into consultation. Ha went downstair* “to be shown” and with amazing promptness an eerie voice from behind the confines of the cellar announced: “I know you; you’re the butcher.” Comparison of notes led to the observations that the voice was heard most frequently at 12 noon and at 9 a. m. Noises In the night and the report that a gas range Jazzed across the kitchen floor and back have all been orally chronicled to prove that there is something the matter. Patrolman McLaughlin, the man on the beat, was called in. He heard noises and went In the second day. Then he took the matter up with Captain Higgins. They went down in the cellar together, explored the walls for pipe ends, but found no improvised speaking tubes. They looked the house over outside and discovered no rosincoated twine attached to it, as juveiine telephones are sometimes contrived, and then they shook their heads. Between thirty and forty persons at * time visited the cellar each day. hoping to obtain direct evidence of the “manifestations.” Everybody who went away after waiting In vain heard meanings but, of course, had not expected -anything Intelligible from the “haunted” house with such a big crowd on hand. —Boston Herald..

Queer Plant

“Tul-Tul," as the natives call it, is the most wonderful vegetable plant .tn the world. It grows on certain South Pacific Islands and in appearance is like a jiant turnip, but blood-red in color. To the white man, it is a very tough and tasteless vegetable. To the natives, however, it Is a main item of their diet. They cook it and mix it with their coconut and breadfrnit, for it is supposed to be very nourishing. They cultivate the plant in a rough »ort of fashion in large ditches or swamps. Its most peculiar feature is that It has to be fed, and for this purpose the native children go over the island collecting all decayed vegetable matter. Phis is soaked in plenty of salt water and is then taken in armfuls to the plants and put in the center of the leafitems or on the short, thick stem from which the leaves spread out on every lide. Slowly, but surely, the decayed mat-, ter disappears, the leaves stiffen and’ ipread out erect—signs, apparently, that the plant has dined heartily, for It really is a case of feeding a plant There is no opening of the stem or leaves; the food Is slowly and gradually absorbed to a silent and wonderful manner.—Btoston Post

“Beating the Bounds” by Air.

Port Melbourne has improved on the ancient British custom of “beating the bounds" of a municipality. Instead of a solemn peregrination, the mayor. Councilor Page, and a colleague flew over Port Melbourne in an airplane and then visited South Melbourne. Whether this airy way of performing * solemn duty will be the cause of civic revolution has yet to be determined and the fact that the Inspection was made on a Sunday may bring down more wrath. There is of course a distinct advantage in viewing rutty roads from the air, but Port Melbourne has no reason to fear a more minute inspection of her highway* and byways.

GAMBLED WITH GRIM DEATH

Adventurera Who Sought Wealth In the Klondike Left a Qhaatly Trail of Tragedies. The old overland -journey from Edmonton, Alta., to the Klondike was a trail of tragedies. A weather-beaten skeleton of an old wagon of the prairie schooner type, the woodwork rotted and only fragments of the wheels remaining, recently was found in the rugged Liard river country. On a piece of tattered canvas that once had been th* wagon cover, printed In black paint in letters a foot high half effaced by the rain* and snows of years, were the word* “Klondike or Bush” Many stories are told by old-timers of the argonauts who found tragedy instead of gold on the north trail which began at Edmonton. Thousands of men from all parts of the world flocked to the town in 1896 during the Klondike rush. They outfitted at the Hudson Bay company two-story frame store which then was considered the greatest store in western Canada. Today, when the company has thrown open all its lands to farm settlement and is centering its energies on the fur trade and general merchandising, a big modern department store rise® on the site of this ancient emporium in the heart Edmonton. Turning their faces toward the Yukon, the gold seekers struck out on a perilous journey of 2,000 miles across an untracked wilderness of forests, muskegs, mountains and mighty rivers. Of the thousands who started, only a few ever reached their destination. Many turned back disheartened to Edmonton. Many beat back to civilization by way of the British Columbia coast. Still greater numbers were swallowed up in vast unknown northern land never to be heard of agHfn. Thev gambled with death who traveled that trail. From time to time in succeeding years the bleachlne bones of the adventurers who followed their dreams over the rim of the world, the battered relics of old camp outfits and the wrecks of wagons and pack saddles have been found in lonely northern places, grim reminders of the old days when men went mad for gold.

Omen* of Good Luck. It has been explained that we need to be prepared for bad luck, but that good fortune does not require to be guarded against. All the same, it would certainly add to the cheerfulness of life in general if lucky omens were more widely known, says a writer in London TitBits. How much brighter things look to us if we have reason to hope that something good is coming to us! Everybody, of course, knows that it is lucky to pick up a bit of iron or coal. So it is to pick up a pin if Its head is toward you; if not, let it He. It is a sign of good fortune to put on some garment Inside out, but only If It is done by accident and the garment is allowed to remain reversed during the day. William the Conqueror put on his mall shirt back to front on the morning of the battle of Hastings, and we all know what luck he had on that occasion. If you find your keys or other steel articles rusting, do not be annoyed about it; it only shows that somebody is putting money by for you. It Is luck to be followed home by a stray dog. Still better 18 it if a strange cat comes to stay at the house. Speaking of cats, pessimists, of course, assert that when it tears the furniture with its claws it is a sigp of rain; but others hold that she is “scratching luck” to her master*.

Female Trees.

After nearly twenty-five years of argument and discussion about the abatement of the cotton nuisance, thecity' commission Of Albuquerque, New Mexico, has ordered the cutting down of all female or cotton-bearing cottonwood trees within the city limits. A large proportion of the shade trees of many western cities are cottonwoods, writes Aldo Leopold in the American Forestry Magazine of Wash ington. The individual trees are of two sexes and the female trees bear annually a most prolific crop of cotton, which acts as a mechanical irritant to sufferers from hay fever, and which during the months of June and July litters the streets, screen doors and plastering with unsightly masses of soiled cotton.

Seek American Rule.

The people of the Virgin islands are begging to be Americanized. Now that they are under the American flag, they have a right to be dissatisfied with the old Danish laws and customs.

Important to all Women Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it. Women’s complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and may be despondent; it makes any one so. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y„ you may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.—Adv.

THE HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES AGREE

All eminent physicians agree with Dr. Hare, Caspari and Rusby, who say in their excellent book, “The National Standard Dispensatory”: “Cascara sagrada is considered to be the best drug we have for habitual constipation. It not only imJreases the secretions of the gastro-intestinal canal, but because of its bitterness acts as a tohlc, improves the appetite and digestion, and prevents the constipation which usually follows the use of similar drugs.” Cascara (the bark of the California Buckthorn) is the principal Ingredient of Triner’s American Elixir of Bitter Wine. The other ingredients make Triner’s remedy still more perfect and that explains sufficiently why T’Hnef’s American Elixir of Bitter .Wine enjoys the renown of being thte best remedy for all stomach disorders. Your dealer at whom you buy medicines has also Triner’s Angelica Bitter Tonic, Triner’s Cough Sedative, Triner’s Liniment and other ’ Triner’s highly dependable remedies In stock. —Joseph Triner Company, 1333-43 S.
