He had been looking into the window, and he must have thought this was a book store Just because we were advertising some. novels and stationery and dictionaries and a lot of that left over junk. Well, anyhow, he came to me and he says, says he, 'I want Lincoln's Gettysburg address. " 'Look for it yourself, sir, says 1 politely, like we're taught to do. 'There's a directory over there in the corner. Bat I don't think you'll find it These directories only have the subscribers' city addresses.' "Well, say, that fellow was so mad he wouldn't wait. Called me ignorant and all kinds of things. But that just shows you what us drug clerks have got to put up with." Cleveland Plain Dealer. Coal Bin Measurement. A solid cubic foot of anthracite coal weighs ninety-three younds. When brokeu for use it weighs about fifty-four pounds. Bituminous coal when broken up for use weighs about fifty pounds. The consequent rule for the approximate measurement of coal in a bin or box is to multiply the length in" feet by the height in feet and again by the breadth in feet and this result by fiftyfour for anthracite coal or by fifty for bituminous coal. The result will equal the number of pounds, and to find the number of tons divide by 2,000. Popular Mechanics. The Obliging Friend.

"Last May my thirteen months' old baby had & sore come on her cheek. It started in four or five small pimples and in two or three hours" time spread to the size of a silver dollar. It spread to her eye. Then vater would run from the pimples and wherever that touched It caused more sores until nearly all one cheek and up her nostrils were one solid sore. She was very fretful. She certainly was a terrible looking child, and nothing seemed to be of any use. Then I got some Cuticura Soap and Cutt'cura Ointment. She tried to rub off everything we put on so that we would sit and hold her hands for two hours at a time, trying to give the medicine a chance to help her. but after I washed it with Cuticura Soap and then put on the Cuticura Ointment they seemed to soothe her and she did not try to rub them off. H was only a few days before her face was all healed up, and there has been no ret urn of the trouble since. We thought that baby's face would surely be scarred, but it is not.". (Signed) Mrs. W. J.

The Proof is in Richmond, Almost at Your Door. The public statement of a Richmond citizen is in itself strong proof for Richmond people, but confirmation strengthens the evidence. Here is a Richmond citizon who testified years ago that Doan's Kidney Pill3 relieved sick kidneys, and now states the cure was permanent. Can any sufferer from kidney ills ask better proof? You can investigate. The case is right at. home. Edgar S. Mote, mail carrier, 23 S. Twentieth street, Richmond, Indiana, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills brought such good results in my case several years ago that I gave a public statement recommending them. For a long time I suffered from backache and kidney trouble and the least cold settled in my kidneys, making my complaint worse. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills, procured a supply at A. G. Luken & Co.'s drug store and their use so completely cured me that I have had little trouble since. I will always hold Doan's Kidney Pills in high esteem." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

The One In Which Henry of Navarre Was Assassinated. As regards the history of coaches In France. Henry IV. was assassinated in 1610. Poon after his death some engravings were published representing him being murdered in his carriage by Ravalllac. It Is from these that we get a fair idea of the coaches. They aje simply square boxes, meas uring by scale six feet in length by three and a half feet in width, on four wheels of the same diameter, without any spring or straps and seating six persons in all namely, two with their backs to the horses, two facing them and two more, one on each side of the two "boots" at the side. Each vehicle had a roof resting on light columns and curtains to draw or to let down. This agrees well with the received accounts of the incident according to one version of which Henry rode in an open carriage, and according to another that as soon as the fatal blow was delivered by the assassin the king's at tendant who rode with him in the car riage drew the curtains and. biding the king from public view, assured the enraged people that he was only wound ed." London Notes and Queries. The Mirror Galvanometer. Some interesting tales are told cf i Lord Kelvin's discoveries and bow the ' ideas of them came to his quick mind. For instance, this is said to have been the way in which he found the mirror galvanometer: He was puzzling over j the difficulty of perfecting the ordinary telegraphic apparatus used on overbead wires, which was not suited for the varying current passing along ca bles. The lagging of fhe electric currents had the effect of making them run together into one bottom current, with surface ripples which correspond to the separate slguals of the message. The problem was how to iuveut a means of interpreting clearly and easily all the delicate fluctuations. One day Lord Kelvin's eyeglass fell off and swung in front of the magnet reflecting its movements, and Instantly the Idea of the mirror suggested itself. So a monocle has h - -isact effect on acleaec.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. A recent magazine article argues for the classical education and argues well. No one is ever spoiled by an education. An education harms lio one. "He'd been better without it," you hear it said now and then of some man who has failed. But he would have failed the same without it as with it. With it he had many enjoyable moments which would have been denied him otherwise. It is not the fault of the education. But of the man. Education is a developer, enlightener and a discipline. Many a man is handicapped seriously by its lack. Everyone limited to a certain degree. That is, of the ordinary run. And the great mass is made up of the ordinary run. There are the detached instances, of course the self-educated, the genius, the natural student who either acquire through absorption or "follow the rules without knowing them." But these are the exceptions. The average person needs an education and is worse without it. And today educational systems are running too much toward the elimination of the classics to the neglect of the study of the great literatures through their languages and of the latter's technique. In English as well as what are termed the "dead" and the "romance" languages. You only have to talk to the average high school pupil to find out his lamentable lack of knowledge of either his language or its literature. To say nothing of those great world classics with which every one should be more or less familiar. There is no mental discipline greater than that of the study of Latin and nothing that is more useful to you later on since our language has for many of its bases the Latin root. It will serve you far better than you may think. In the writing of advertisements as well as in the editing of a magazine. In selling commodities over the counter as well as from the professor's or teacher's chair. On the farm as well as in the bank. Nor do you get in a translation what you get in the original. There is a certain fine flower, the essence and the bloom lost in the transfer from one language to another. You can best tell this, if you are sufficiently trained, by reading a translation from the English into the German or French, say or any other foreign language. If the translator is erudite anjl felicitous the substance is never lost but oftener than not on account of the very structure of the language, it is impossible to transmit. Therefore if you have that taste and inclination which longs to extract the very heart of literary product, the knowledge of the languages gives you an exquisite pleasure as well as an insight not only into the greatest but all the literature of a race that you can never receive through a translation. The writer knows an elderly man in this city who spends long evenings reading the G-eek masteppieces of literature i-n the original. A man who has spent his life poring over ledgers and counting up cash. And yet whose study of Greek in college enabled him to share a pleasure with the greatest of any time. An education gives you the entree always into the best society. And by "best" is not necessarily meant the "smart set," which, ten to one, may be the worst so far as culture is concerned. But no matter what your merits you will, on the other hand, be politely damned through some linguistic lapse. Your introductions may be of the Rip-p-p-p-p! Out Gome Thousands of Dress Shields!

YOUR CHILD
best, your character undoubted, your dress in good taste and yet some grammatical slip will consign you to the place of a spectator rather than that of a participant. "Them things," will send you to social Convent ry. "Him and me." "I t," "Was it her?" "I have went," and other solecisms may not keep you out of Heaven but they'll keep you out of good society. The point has been emphasized here before that the teacher's influence is rendered nil by the parents. You constantly hear little children who have been . patiently drilled at school committing linguistic crimes through the terrible object lesson of home. Why do people who are graduates of our public schools murder the English language constantly and knowingly? Why will they ruin a child's speech in Its most plastic period? It is one of the unpardonable sins. It is almost as bad to maim a child's speech as it is to cripple his body. It is nothing to sneer at. Nothing at which to sniff and toss the head. When you brand your child's speech with the insignia of the uncultured you do him a wrong as great as when you bruise his flesh with a blow. On the other hand there is too much carpentering and sewing and cooking and blacksmithing in the schools and too little teaching of the principles upon which education is based. Industrial training is excellent and has its place in the modern system but it should be subordinate to that study of language and literature which is the primary raison d' etre of that which we call "education."

In the fourteenth century th parish clerks of London frequently took a part in the miracle plays, then commonly acted in churches, and also annually performed mystery plays In public near the old clerk's well, which gave its name to Clerkenwell. Occasionally they even acted before royalty. Thus Hollinshed records that the London parish clerks of the Brotherhood of St. .Nicholas, who formerly were a dignified body with a chartered guild and hall of their own in Bishopsgate street, performed a play on three successive nights before Richard II. and his queen and court to divert the royal resentment against the citizens of London for a recent riot in the city.

BARBERS PRAISE NEWBROS' HERPIC1DE As the Best Remedy for the Hair and Scalp "I have been using Newbro's Herpicide for the last four years and find it the best thing made." Joseph Pizzerto, 1675 Richmond Terrace. West Brighton. L. I., X. Y. "I can truthfully say that Herpiclde is the best remedy for the hair I have ever used." O. A. Rathenbuecher, Virden. 111. "I have used many preparations in my shop, and find Herpiclde best of all for falling hair and all scalp or skin diseases." J. A. Oliver, Leslie, Ark.
"Newbro's Herpiclde has always given the best of satisfaction." S. M. Chambers, Teekwila. Wash. While the barber necessarily carries other hair remedies, Newbro's Herpicide is one he swears by because he knows its merits. He can conscientiously recommend it to kill the dandruff germ and stop falling hair. In making an application of Herpiclde he feels and knows that the customer is receiving full value for his money and will be benefited far in excess of his expectations. Newbro's Herpicide in 50c and $1.00 sizes is sold by all dealers who guarantee it to do all that is claimed. If you are not satisfied your money will be refunded. Send 10c in postage for sample and book on the hair to The Herpiclde Co., Dept. R., Detroit, Mich. A. G. Luken & Co., Special Agents. The Whitest City In the World. There cannot possibly be a whiter city than Cadiz unless it be built of snow. The best way to approach the port is to take a trip on one of the small steamers which ply between the ports of Morocco and Spain. As you near the coast you see In front of you a white mass, which appears to be floating upon the water, just as you are. The first thought of a foreigner is that be is in sight of an iceberg. The white mass, glittering in the sun and rendered more dazzling by the blue sea and sky, looks exactly like a monster Ice mountain partly melted, bo that outlines of castles and hill appear upon it, but only for a second does the illusion Inst, for you know there are no ice bergs in that part, and you are quickly Informed that you are looking at Cadiz. No other town in the world presents such a magic appearance. CHICHESTER S PILLS 0- . THE llAMONB BRANS.

AWED BY NAPOLEON. Queer Impression the Emperor Made Upon Countess Potocka, We waited rather lone, and it must
be acknowledged our curiosity was not unniingled with fright. Of a sudden the silence was broken by a swift rumor, the- wings of the door opened noisily, and M. de Talleyrand advanced, with a loud and intelligible voice uttering the magic word that made the world tremble. The emperor." Immediately Napoleon made his appearance and halted for a minute as if to be admired. So many portraits exist of this astonishing man. his history has been so much written about, all the stories told by the children of his old soldiers will live so loug. that the generations to come will know him almost as well as ourselves. But what will be difficult to grasp is how deep and unexpected the imprension was which those felt who saw bim for the first time. As for me. I experienced a sort of stupor, a mute surprise, like tnat which seizes one at the aspect of a prodigy. It seemed to me that he wore au aureole. The ouly thought I could frame when I recovered from this nrsi shock was that such a being could not possibly die; that such a mighty organization, such a stupendous genius, should never perish. 1 inwardly awarded him double immortality.
