Founder of Antl-Treatlng League. Dr. W. H. Cocker, J. P- of Blackpool, who died recently, was tba founder of the Anti TreaUng League. "Pay for yoVr own drinks." was the doctor's motto In founding the AntlTreatlng League. "I believe," Dr. Cocker would say. "when men pay for their own drinks the consumption cf alcohol will greatly diminish. The treating evil Is greater than drink itself. because the man who is treated Is always expected to treat back. If we stamp out treating we shall have done something to make England sober.”—London Evening Standard-

Monster Gar in Ohio Creek. Thomas Q. Pringle while fishing with George Dohr in Deer Creek rear Mount Sterling recently pulled out a monster gar three feet long. Mr Pringle slashed off the heal from the long, snakt-llke body and preserved it, as it is a decided curiosity, a gar of that length not having been taken on a hook In that vicinity for years. The cruel jaws with the needlelike teeth are about four Inches long and the coloring of the head is most beautiful. It Is a light gray or silver and is handsomely tinted with purple elasbes throughout. Celluloid Collars for John Bull, White celluloid collars, shirt front* and stiffs, are selling well In Manchester, and Vice-Consul John W. Thomas thinks that the trade should prove sttraotive to American manufacturers. The English workingman with a fahlly finds in these articles a great saving both in washing and durability. The retail price averages 12 to 16 cents each, the manufacturer* having their own retail stores.—Daily Consular and Trade Reports. Killed Big Turkey In Kentucy. K. D. Polley, a farmer of the Lime Fork Creek section of the county, killed one of thtf largest wild turkey*, it gobbler, shot in the mountains in many years.

Any woman ought to be able to find a hat to suit her this season. She can be as freakish or a* conservative ns she will. She can wear a hat that is eoormous, medium or microscopic In elze. She can add cubits to her etature by her hat or don a shape as flat as a pancake. She can turn her tat up in the back or in front or at the sides or both front and back or not at all. She can choose feathers or flowers or ribbon for trimming.

Natural Straw.

She can select coarse straw or fine. She can pull her hat far down over ears and brow or pose it rationally. Yes, there are hats for all women, but there's a sfrong probability that a large percentage of the women will not find thedr own hats. A majority of the models are trying and demand either extreme smartness or decided prettiness of the woman who is to wear any of them successfully. Now w ith all due appreciation of the

Violet Straw and Velvet, good qualities of women It may be admitted that the extremely smart and the extremely pretty among them are rare excepUons, and when the very plain woman or the frumpy woman or even the nice average woman has tried on a score or more of models each more unbecoming than the last and has thoroughly demoralized her hair and has been snubbed or pab ronized by an impressive saleswoman until (her proud spirit is properly Chastened, Uie chances are that she will reach a point of profound discouragement concerning her personal appearance and her low tastes and will buy the least appalling thing the saleswoman insists upon selling to her. There are conscientious milliners who know what looks weU on a

White Tagal. woman and try hard to sell the tight thing, but they are few and the ordinary saleswoman'* tastes run to the extreme and the bizarre. She sees so many eccentricities In milllxtery that they cease to Impress her and ahe has an enormous respect for the great names with which milliners ccmjur*. If you venture to criticise a hat the looks pitying or acomful and says Tt Is a Georgette model' or Tt is on* of earlier's latest,' and that settles it You are relegated to outer darkness and If she shows you more hats she does tt wearily and with an air of one casting pearls.

Tapestry Hats. Tapestry-covered hats, the tapestry tn bold patterns of soft and old tint* on a light ground stretched tightly over the frame, come tn wide picture <hapes and close mushroom models. “•/ are untrirnmed.

was so liinily glued to his face iliat It would have stayed even had an old college chum tried to borrow money from him. In a daze of misery Ledeon walked from the station to the ( luh with Cousin Stella trotting along beside him chattering every inch of the way, and Mrs. Wicketts beaming placidly. Bitterness surged in his ))-*art as he secured clubs and joined his tormentors. Cousin Stella clapped her bands babyishly. "Oh. are these what you play with? ’ flie burbled. "How much does it count when you hit the ball? Why don't they make them bigger? My goodness! Isn’t there a net to play over o anything?” Like a man going to execution, Lcdeson stalked to the first tee. With ?. sigh he turned to give his first instructions. Then he stopped. Cousin Stella was making a neat lit I It mound of sand and placing her hall upon it. Then in a calm, cool, businesslike way she stepped back, screwed up her eyes and swung her club twice. There was a crack which ent the white sphere hurtling a marvelous 200 yards. She turned her innocent blue eyes upon Ledeson and there was a deep silence. Then in a strangled way he seemed to be trying to say something. Cousin Stella crumpled over her sticl^ in a spasm of hysterical laughter. "I couldn't help it,” she gasped. "No human girl could if she’d seen that look of rage and horror on your fsce when Mrs. Wicketts thrust me Upon jou" She didn’t know that we've a golf club down home and that I've won six cups! Now I’ll go and crochet with Mrs. Wicketts and leave jou in peace!’' "Indeed you won’t!” Ledeson explcded. It had dawned upon him that C'Diisin Stella was really a wonderful exception to all other girls. "You’re going to play golf with me all afterLOon for your sins!” A Job for Cupid. Penurious Papa—"Where Is Maybe lie?" Designing Mamma—"She took some photos a little while ago amt she and joung Muchcash are in the dark room." Penurious Papa—"Developing negatives?’’ Designing Mamma—"No; au affirmative. I hope."

The Wag’s Question. A wag one day asked his friend: "How many knaves do you suppose are ’n this street besides yourself?" "Besides myself?” replied the oilier, in a heat. "Do you mean to in-ult me?” "Well, then.” replied the first, "how many do you reckon including yoursell?"

A Missourian’s Curiosity Shop. J. M. White, residing near Pack, has in his possession a purse that is 104 years old, a chest which is 104 years old a bedspread eighty-eight years old. The bedstead on which he sleeps is ninety-eight years old and Is a massive piece of furniture. He lias a razor mug and a walking cane sixty years old, the wood of the cane Having been brought from Central America. One of the lamps he uses ho bought in 1867.—I'inevllle Herald.

The Test of a Man. Giving evidence at an inquest at 1 armouth, n market stall carrier deelenred he could take ten pints of beer before breakfast and/get home all l ight. The coroner told him he ought to he ashamed to say so and the witness replied that a man who could not take four or five pints was no man nt all— London Evening Standard. Only a Summer Deg. A little hoy was entertaining the r'tfiister until his mother could complete her toilet. The minister to make congenial conversation inquired: "Have you a dog?" "Yes, sir, a dachshund,” responded the lad. • Where is he?” questioned the dominie, knowing the way to a boy's heart. "Father sends him away for the winter. He rays it takes him so long to go in and out the door he cools the whole house off.”—Success. Easing a Conscience Mrs. A. T. Chenault last week re ceived & letter, postmarked Cincinnati containing a $10 bill and the follow Ing letter: "A long time ago I cheated you Now I am growing old and my con science hurts me for it. 1 am sending you $10. May Cod forgive me." Mrs. Chenault has no cine to the sender.—Richmond (Ky.) Register. Reade’s Appeal to Book Thieves. Charles Keade's copy of "London Labour and London Pool”' Is to be ■old. It contains the following note: “Charles Reade—Please steal somebody else's copy. I am weak enough to have a value for mine.”—Westminster Gazette. Shifting the Responslbilty. •I note that you employ a great many quotations from the poets in your speeches * “Yes,” replied the oratoi “Just now In my district It Is desirable to eay as little as possible for wTlch you can be held personally reup mslhie.”—Washington Star.

Bread Without Flour. The French have a way of making bread without flour. The grain is oeuverted directly Into dough.

WOMEN OYSTER GATHERERS.

Many Have Made Small Fortune* at the Work in France. The work of oyster collecting and culture is most unsuitable for women, but in France, owing to its tedious nature, it does not appeal to men. Often /rom an early hour in the morning till late into the evening the women are standing up to the knees In water, with a strong sun beating down on them. The result is that never a year passes without some of them going mad and having to he hurried away to the asylums. The work is well paid, as indeed it ought to be, while in the case of the few who own beds the profits are large and small fortunes are quickly amassed.—Woman s Life.

Care of the Hands. If you wish to keep your hands soft and white keep a jar of almond meal on the washstand. Oatmeal and even cornmeal will do just as well. After washing the hands in soap and warm water rub the meal on them generously. This will keep the hands wonderfully soft and white. For stains and obstinate spots keep a cake of toilet pumice stone on hand and rub the spots with this and they will quickly be removed. Dry every part of the hands on a soft towel and then rub In a good cream that you find agrees with your skin. Many people think that the winter time is the only time that one should apply cold cream to the hands, but this is a mistake, for one washes the hands so many times a day that most of the natural oil of the hands is removed, and this should be replaced by massaging them with cold cream. When the hands are wrinkled from long immersion in the water rub them with vinegar before washing them.

Cold Boiled Ham. A good slice of cold boiled ham is enough to animate the ribs of death, but how often it tastes of the rusty skin in which it was cooked. First scrub the ham, using plenty of borax water and a scrubbing brush. This will in no way injure the meat. Rinse it thoroughly and put whole into a kettle of lukewarm water. I-et it cook gently until the skin can be removed. Take it out and with a sharp knife remove the skin, then put the ham into fresh boiling water. Cook it until tender, but not enough so it will fall apart. Put it into a large dripping pan, sprinkle lightly with sugar and score the fat to resemble a checkerboard. Insert a few cloves. Frequently baste the ham and let it brown slowly. Remove from the oven and let it chill. A ham may be garnished and sent to the table whole, If one has a proficient carver, otherwise it is best to slice the meat in the kitchen before it is served.

To Sweeten Rancid Butter. Beat the butter in a sufficient quantity of water, into which has been mixed 23 or 30 drops of chloride of lime. It is not injurious and may safely be used. This is a sufficient amount for two pounds of butter. Leave for an hour, cover with fresh water and pat the butter to wash cut all rancid water. The butter will be fresh and sweet. To keep butter fresh place a hag of coarse salt on the bottom of a stone crock; put the butter into a cloth and lay it on the salt; cover the jar and keep in a dark, epol place.

Carmine Ink. A good carmine ink for drawing pictures on place ranis is made in this manner: Take a little carmine and mix with dissolved gum Arabic and add aqua ammonia. When too thick dilute with ammonia, it will flow freely while writing. Blue ink is made with ferrocyanide of iron, commonly called Chino(e blue, obtainable at any drug store. It is ground with binoxolate of potash and diluted with water. Usually gum arable'is added to all inks for decorative purposes.

Oven Shovel. A common shingle will he found a great convenience for taking hot pans from the oven. Cut the thin end six inches wide. From the end cut * handle six inches long by two wide. Bore a hole in the handle and hang it back of the stove where it will always be ready for use.

Get Rid of Mice. Use formaldehyde In the house freely. It will not hurt anything. Then shut the house up tight for half a dav. The mice will leave.

A Cruel Inquiry. "I'm *a*h.” said Chellle Softlelgh with • drawling lisp, "that I don't know what I shall do when I get out •f c*U*f*. Mothah want* us* to bs a ntnltbUh, hut I have a leaning toard lltratebah.” "Did you ever think of becoming an aetrees?” she asked cruelly.

He Was A Hero Lacking In Zip At a certain stage of the picture the hero became sick in a handsome bath robe, and though the matinee girls said he was a dear, they thought him glorious when he recovered his health and smashed the villain. The t moral is that no hero should be lacking in zip. Without zip a hero becomes zero.

The zip of life is health and to be in health, vigorous. enegetic, optimistic, requires that the nervous system delivers its power in equal portion to all parts of the body. Spinal adjusting removes nerve interference find health follows as a natural result.
