"Dew Ponds.'* Amont: the nioit singulnr archooTopical remains found in Great Hritain are the ancient “dew ponds,” the conetruction of which is ascribed to people of the Neolithic age. The purpose of these ponds was to furnish drinktng water for cattle. An exposed position, where springs were absent, was selected and a broad, hollowed aurface was formed, and covered over with straw, or some other non-conduct-ing material. Above was spread a thick layer of clay strewn with stones. During the night the cold surface of the clay caused an abundance of moisture to condense from the lower layers of the air Some of these ancient kew ponds are still In working order. The Praetorian Guard. The Praetorian Guard was a select body of troops instituted by the Emperor Augustus to protect his person, and consisted of ten cohorts, each of one thousand men, chosen from Italy. They had peculiar privileges, and ■wlnn they had served sixteen years were retired on a pension of about |500. Each member of the Guard had the rank of a captain In the regular army. Like the bodyguard of I.ouia the Fourteenth, they were ail gentlemen. and formed gradually a great power, like the Janizaries at Conetanttnople, and frequently deposed or •levated the very Emperors themselves.
Protection for Miners.
Workers in certain mines, as well as in glass and mirror factories, are subject to injurious effects from th<s Inhalation of mercury vapors. An Italian savant, Signor Tarugi, believes that the property of aluminum to absorb mercuric vapors may be utilized for protection against this danger, and he has devised for the purpose a mask of aluminum wire to be worn •rer the fac*. His idea is that the air breathed will be freed from the Injurious vapors through their ao-
•orption by the aluminum.
A School Army Enlisting to Savs the Guardians of Crops. On the millions of school children in this country linal hope of averting the extinction of the valuable insects Ivorous birds has been rested. What the Federal Government, the State Legislatures, and even the granges, women’s clubs or national commercial organizations hate failed to accomplish completely, Che National Association of Audubon societies have announced will be now giv. en to the children of the laud to bring about. To organize every body of pupils from the largest New York public school to the most remote district school on the Pacific ooust. inw u general movement for housing, feeding and protecting the wild birds that save the country’s crops is the object of the Audubon workers. Old kettles, boxes, or milk, *n- < mato and kerosene cans, are being | used by the children as emergency j bird shelters. Elaborate houses, rus- | tic imitations of hollow limbs, and l neatly furnished apartments are also * being planned. All must be made * cat-proof, and should face to the - south or west if i>ossible. The feathI ered pair who will seek quarters for ? rearing their families in the spring | * will he particular In their tastes. If they find no promising spot for a home In any locality, they will pass cm and leaves its fields and gardens at the mercy of the Insect*. The children are urged to the Immediate building of houses for this season s bird families, because seasoned and weather-beaten structures most quickly tempt the birds when spring
moving day comes.
Ornithologists declare that the march of civilization has robbed millions of useful, as well as sightly and tuneful, birds of their old-time facilL ties for home making. Sheltering tree trunks are being laid low every year over hundreds of acres. The old-fashioned structures, where birds might flock under open eaves, are being replaced by modern roofs that shut out bird life. Whole races, like the chimney swifts, are being deprived of their shelter in the big,
old-style chimnles.
Such conditions, combined with lux laws for spring shooting and pothunting, may drive the valuable inseut eaters to extinction. It will be the children's work to house thi evicted birds at the time when they not only rear their young, but eat

Music in Mexico. According to the American consul at Monterey Mexico everybody iu that sunny laud has a love of music, says "Musical America.” The common laborer who works all day paving the streets, may be found In the evening taking a leading part in an orchestra playing classic music. It is a poor house, indeed, that has not some sort of a musical instrument. Cotton goods, nails, steel rails, and various others articles of commerce are manufactured in Monterey, but as yet the consul is quoted as saying, that nobody has ever made a guitar there, except, perhaps, some lone genius who manufactured one for his own u»e Guitars and mandolins are almost exclusively imported from the Tinlted States, though some come from France and Spain. Germany Is supposed to be the home of the violin, aud nearly all these instruments used in this part of Mexico, come from that country, though an insignificant number come from the United States. In pianos, of which quite a number are sold there, the United states has the best of the trade, the balance going to Germany. In or* gans the United States Is practically unrivaled In this country, very few of these Instruments in any grade coming from Europe. But there Is one general class of instruments in which the United States might do a good business, hut as yet does practically none, and that Is the Instruments which go to the furnishing of a brass band.*

OOOOODOOOOOOODOOOOOOOOOOOO Had Bronson been the ordinary type of man the incident would never have happened. But Bronson was not ordinary In any sense of the word. His greatest hobby was odd philanthropies. At the jewel counter of one of the department stores Bronson heard a girl’s voice lamenting the fact incidentally that she could not have the dainty pendant at which she was gazing longingly. "They are my birthstones," she told the clerk, “and I need the luck they would bring me. No,” she shook her head and handed back the velvet case. "1 would have to go without lunches for three years in order to pay for it** Bronson was uncomfortably susceptible to the timbre of a voice. Had this girl’s voice asked him for a limousine with satin upholstering he would have given It to her on the moment of asking There was a wistful appeal In the rich tones. "I will have you send me those cuff links when the engraving is finished,” she was saying to the clerk. A moment later she had given her name and address and turned from the counter. Bronson did not look after her. He was not Interested In her ae a woman. He knew not that her well worn suit had come from one of the lesser stores and that her battered music roll held all that was dear to her. Bronson only knew he was going to purchase the pendant and send it to her. His ear had been acutely sensitive to the girl’s name and ad-
dress.
"Show me that opal and diamond pendant?" he asked of another clerk who had not served Avis Brayton— for such was the girl’s name. He looked carefully at the dainty pendant. It was a charming mingling of small opals, diamonds aud pearls, though not of costly extravagance. "Send this to Miss Arts Brayton.** he told the clerk and gave her the address. He scribbled a line on a blank card, paid her bill and went hie way rejoicing that he was able to satisfy a small craving of a human being less fortunate than himself In material means. While delight glowed In the eyes of Avis when she got the package, she would have returned It had she known or been able to learn from whom it came. She put the warm, life-reflecting stones about her neck. “Ah'” she said, "I already feel they are bringing me luck.”
* •
It was two years later that Bronson entered tbs Van Wilde’s spacious drawing room. The affair was a (Tinixer-musloaU', otherwise Bronson might not have been there; his fondness for the good music Mrs. Van Wilde usually offered had been the bait. He was more or lees attracted to a girl to whom he had not been presented. She was extraordinarily beautiful, and evidently one of the song birds She was even then muk lag her way to the side of the grand piano. Bronson sighed Surely a girl so krvvly could not be possessed of very great musical ability That would be such an abundance of gifts seldom given to one being. The girl had not sung a single pftiraae boifore Bronsons heart gave an uacecnferuble bemud. The voice was rich and rarely wistful Ha could not remember haring heard any voice, the timbre of which so deeply moved him. He sat hack and absorbed each lovely note. . Later he met the wonderful girl, and realized he had lost his heart to her. Mrs Wflde asked him to lead her into dinner. At the dinner table It was Jimmy Rodgers who made this startling suggestion. "I want you to disabuse our minds a* to one matter, Mies Brayton," he said with a laugh. “All famous people, are supposed at one time to have gone about barefooted and all that sort of thing. Tgll us the true story of yonr life.” A general laugh fol-
lowed.
Avia Brayton milled, and while Bias said It - ^ a long story, and a true onb »be would go no further back than to admit that she was very poor once, when some one anonymously sent her the necklace then around her neok. "I have never known who sent It,” she said, "but It brought me luck from the hour I got it, and I

A company of Gypsies, who have been using the pasture, south of the home of Emmett Green, on South Jackson street, as a camping ground for the past several days were ordered off by Deputy Sheriff Sam Ham, Friday morning. The band had a menace to the residents of that territory and were ordered off by individuals several times but they did not heed the orders. Horses belonging to the band had been turned out in the pasture and had confiscated the ground to the extent that damage to the grass had been done. They readily moved on seeing that the sheriff meant business.

Many people are very skeptical that there can be anything that will relieve them of their rheumatism, but we tell you that Nerv-Worth will do it for you or you can have your money back after you use th<‘ first bottle if you are not satisfied with the benefit it gives. Most first class drug, gists have it at one defiar a bottle and you will always find it for sab in this city at the R. P. Mullins drug store. There is a man over in Richmond, Ind., by the name of Geo. Williams who told one of our traveling men that he had been bothered with rheumatism for a long time and had tried a number of remedies but found no relief until he used Nerv Worth. It drove out his rheumatism and stopped all of his stomach trouble It was the stomach and bowel trouble that gave him rheumatism. NervWorth is the greatest stomach and bowel remedy known and is just a? good for women and children as it is for strong men.
