VETERAN FIGHTER , LAYS DOWN SWORD Cen. Brush, Retired Today, Only General Dating Service Back to War.

(National Newt Association) WASHINGTON, D. C, May 9. The only General whose service dated back 'to the days of the civil war was removed from the active list of the army today, when, by reason of the fact that :thlg was the sixtyfourth anniversary of his birth. Brigadier General Daniel lH. Brush was retired from active service. Until recently General Brush was in command of the Department of California, with headquarters at San Francisco. A service of 45 years in the army and 41 years as a commissioned officer is the record he leaves behind Wm. J ffgfXi General Brush is a veteran of the Civil, Indian and Spanish wars. He is a native of Illinois and served in the Civil war as a private in the 145th Illinois Volunteer Infantry. He enlisted at the age of sixteen and served with credit until the end of the war, when he received an appointment to West Point. Upon his graduation from 'the military academy in 1867 he was appointed second lientenant of the 17th Infantry. For twenty-three years he was stationed in the far West, and took an active part in several Indian campaigns. He was with eGn. Stanley in the Yellowstone expedition in 1872 and took part in the fight at the mouth of the Powder river. He commanded a company of Indian scouts in the Yellowstone expedition, under Gen. Custer, in the following year and was in the fights of the Yellowstone and Tongue river. I When the Spanish war broke out General Brush, serving as a professor of military science at the University of Illinois, applied for leave, and went to Cuba with the 17th Infantry and participated in the fight at El Caney and at Santiago. The next year he went to the Philippines and was in the field constantly in the operations against the insurgents, being especially active in the engagements at San Fernando, in Luzon. He was promited colonel of the 24th Infantry in-May, 1907, and held that command until February, 1908, when he was appointed brigadier general.

A newspaper man of Washington was approached one morning by a friend who wanted to borrow $5. The newspaper man, assuming an expression of great sorrow, pulled 20 cents out of his pocket and remarked: fl'm sorry, old man, but you've struck me just before pay day, and I'm broke." Having made this crafty excuse, he, mentally speaking, pinned a gold medal on himself for having evaded the profcpeetive borrower. "When Is your pay day?" asked the friend. "Tomorrow afternoon," replied the newspaper man. "All right," said the friend. "I'll come around then." And he did. Popular Magazine. Merely a Test Case. A burly negro came to the doctor of a West African missionary settlement, dragging bis reluctant wife with him. "Doctor, pull one of my wife's teeth out," said he. The doctor examined the woman's mouth and found only sound teeth. "Oh, that makes no difference," said the Interested negro. "Pull one anyway. If it doesn't hurt her too much then you can pull my tooth that Is aching." Success Magazine. CRITICAL TIME OF WO MAN'S LIFE jFrom 40 to 50 Years of Age. How It May Be Passed in Safety. Odd, Va.: "I am enjoying better health than I have for 20 years, and I believe I can safely say now that I am a well woman. I was reared on a farm and had all kinds of heavy work to do which caused the troubles that came on me later. For five years during the Change of Life I was not able to lift a pail of water. I had hemor rhages which would last for weeks and I was not able to sit up in bed.

The Modern Head Dress

Causes Baldness We Cannot Change the Head Dress, But We Can Prevent Baldness. Up to the time we began to civilize him a bald headed Indian was a thing unknown. Wearing nothing on his head except the covering furnished by nature and being a stranger to the use of a hair brush, especially the public one, the scalp and hair had plenty of ventilation, much sunlight and, hence a condition favorable to a luxuriant growth of hair existed at all times. It was the adoption of air and light excluding head gears and artificial head decorations generally, together with the occasional use of a community hair brush, which gave the dandruff germs its opportunity. Since this parasite has multiplied to an alarming degree until now there is hardly a person who is not troubled more or less with dandruff and falling hair. Many, to be sure, have passed the worrying stag.e Having become chronically bald they realize that nothing is capable of producing natural hair for them. Let these be a warning to all who are experiencing the significant annoyance of dandruff and falling hair. Dandruff, which is due to a germ, and falling hair can both be overcome by the regular use of Newbro's Herpicide. This wonderful scalp remedy kills the vicious germ which causes dandruff, cleanses the scalp and stops the hair from coming out. The destruction of the germ permits the hair to grow naturally and luxuriantly as nature intends. Herpicide makes the hair bright, snappy, light and fluffy. One dollar size bottles guaranteed.

At the Murray. Any one liking girls, lots of girls, good looking girls, will find their Mecca at the Murray this week where the Daffydill Girls are the attraction. A minature musical comedy is the act of the Daffydill Girla, with the comedians, the songs, danceand electrical effects of the larger shows. Harry Steppe, the comedian, is one of the best that could be had for the part, and the quaint and original sayings of the Jew are one of the biggest hits of the show. The song numbers are catchy and well rendered while the dancing of the aggregation is graceful and many new and difficult steps are shown. Some beautiful costumes are worn by the girls which adds materially to the success of the act. Taken as a whole the show is one of the most pleasing seen here for some time and is appreciated by all. Next week by special arrangement Manager Murray has secured "Odiva" one nymph of the sea for the feature attraction. LONDON STREET CRIES. They Must Have Made the City a Bedlam In Oldsn Days. London must have been a lively city in the days when the street crier Joined In competition with the bell of the postman and the muffin man. The boy who goes round the streets with the early morning cry of "Hot rolls!" still lingers in the outer suburbs, but the old street crier has long been silent in the land. Some of the ancient cries have been collected by Frederick W. Hack wood in his book. "The Good Old Times." They include "Cherry Ripe. O.'" "Baking or Boiling Applvs;" "Green bastings" (these were early peas); "Lavender, sweet lavendei, six bunches a penny," or perhaps ."Rabbits, wild rabbits," and when there was a good catch of fish it might be "Mackerel, OI" or "Herrings, alive, all alive!" "Some of the cries." writes Mr. Hackwood. "would sound strange to the ear now, as "Bandboxes, "Bas kefs.' 'Buy a broom.' 'Hair brooms 'Hot spiced gingerbread.' 'Brick dust, 'Sand. Or 'Bellows to mend.' 'Chairs to mend.' 'Bill of the play.' More familiar perhaps were 'Old clothes,' 'Cats and dogs meat' and 'Dust O! "Now we are reduced to little more than the shriek and howl which are supposed to represent milk and coals." London Chronicle. Deceived by a Cloud. The instinct of animals is sometimes supposed to be more infallible than human reason, but a scientist's observations of the katydid rather contradict that opinion. The katydid, with Its musical membranes, produces two distinct "songs," one peculiar to the night and familiar to everybody, the other a daytime tune, which is rather a rasp than a melody. According to the scientist mentioned, it is sometimes quite comical to hear the singers suddenly change their tune when a dark cloud obscures the- sun. immediately resuming their daytime song when it has passed. This recalls the hens that go to roost during a solar eclipse. DR. B. McWHINNfcY Physician and Surgeon Office Gennett Theater Building North A Street. Residence. The ArdVn.

WORDSWORTH'S RECITATION. The Way the English Poet Received Ralph Waldo Emerson. When Emerson, the great American writer, came to England he paid a visit to Wordsworth, says an English magazine. Wordsworth had Just returned from a journey and was in his garden writing a poem on what he had seen. The visitor found the great poet a white haired, tall, sparely built man, of a rugged, rustic type, with nothing, unless It were the fine eyes, to hint of the poet. Wordsworth made no ceremony over the visit of the man from a far land, but said Instantly when he was called to greet him. "If you are Interested in my poetry perhaps you will like to hear these lines." Emerson politely agreed, and this is what happened. Emerson has himself written the story down tor os. The old poet thought for a few moments, then stood fortb and repeated with great animation an entire poem he had written. "The recitation." the American philosopher wrote afterward, "was so unlooked for and surprising Wordsworth standing apart and reciting to me in a garden walk, like a schoolboy declaiming that at first I was near to laughing; but. recollecting myself that I bad come thus far to see a poet and he was chanting poems to me, 1 saw that he wns right and that I was wrong, and I gladly gave myself up to hear." STOVES OF IRON.

rhey Superseded the Roman Stuba In the Eighteenth Century. A heating apparatus called a "stuba" (stove) was widely used among the liigher class of Romans before the beginning of the Christian era. This class of heaters was fixed and immovable, besides being in several other respects wholly different from the modern stove. In Germany and Scandinavia they were used in bathrooms and hothouses during the middle ages. They were usually constructed of brick, stone or tile and were of Immense size. They sometimes covered the whole side of a twenty or thirty foot room and often axtended. out into the room us much as ten feet, in which case the smooth, flat top was used for a bedstead, tho heated surface Imparting an agreeable feeling of warmth during those cold nights of long ago when such things as covers were quite rare. Cardinal Polignac of France was perhaps the first to attempt the construction of a stove wholly of iron, this at about the beginning of the eighteenth century. The first real improvement over the old Roman "stuba" was brought about by Franklin in the year 1745. One of his efforts produced a typical base burner, almost perfect and a model of workmanship. Stoves were not used in private houses to any great extent prior to the year 1830. London Standard. Making the Cormorants Work. The cormorants are among the most interesting and useful birds in the world. They are employed in the fishing industry off the coast of Scotland to a large extent. They are easily trained to work for their owners, who place a brass ring round each of their throats so as to prevent the birds swallowing. They naturally feed upon fish and soon learn to deposit what they catch in their owners' boats. They display remarkable cleverness in time, and a good fisher is worth a good deal of money to a fisherman. ANA YD T snxti w Kotch COLLAR Plenty of tie space. 16c. afoe2Sc CI tt. Tmbotj Sc Company.

CASCARETS INSURE INSIDE CLEANLINESS

The millions of Cascaret users never have Headache, Constipation, Biliousness or Sick Stomach. It is more necessary that you keep your Bowels. Liver and Stomach clean, pure and fresh than it is to keep the sewers and drainage of a large city free from obstruction. Are you keeping clean inside with Cascarets or merely forcing a pas- J sageway every few days with salts, cathartic pills or castor oil? This is important. Cascarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and fermenting food and foul gases; take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system the decomposed waste matter and poison in the intestines and bowels. No odds how badly and upset you feel, a Cascaret tonight will straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-cent box from your druggist will keep your entire family feeling good for months. Don't forget the children their little insides need a good, gentle cleansing too. I The Family Bulletin Board. In a large family where the members go out a great deal a family bulletin board is a convenience. It may be of a sheet of celluloid, a small blackboard or a large slate with pencil attached and should be hung in a part of the house where all the members of the family pass at some time of the day. The dining room or the front hall would be a good place to hang it. On the bulletin board the family post notices of regular interest which they have forgotten to impart at breakfast or dinner. One day's substance ran like this: "Had .a letter from Mary Smith. She wants Tom to send her the address of that antique dealer where he bought the blue pitcher. Sue." "Won't be home to dinner tonight. Tom." "Don't forget the church supper Friday. There'll be no supper at home. Mother." "Has any one seen my tennis racket? Jean." "Mrs. Henderson phoned; wants mother to call her up as soon as' she comes in. Jean." And so it goes. Messages, callers, telephone calls, neighborhood news, engagements, lost and found articles, are tabulated here for the benefit of all. The result is a surprising lessening of household friction. Occasionally some one pastes up a squib or joke or bit of verse which, the rest of the family will enjoy. Even the cook and housemaid ii so the bulletin board and like the convenience of it The board may be washed whenever necessary.
