venience. You do not have
to wait several hours for it to
dry, yet Vegerub removes
every particle of oil and dan
druff. It is very much more
effective than soap and water.
Vegerub is granulated vege
tation, perfectly harmless.
A few strokes of the brush
removes it. You must try
this preparation you will
appreciate it.
Price 25 cents. If your drug
gist can’t supply you, we

A MAINE MONSTER.
The meanest man on earth, I guess,
Is one that lives in Maine,
And what his name is, I confess,
Would give me such a pain
To mention here that I’ll withhold
The same from public view.
And merely will his deed unfold
To show his shame to you.
His wife, a soul of kind intent,
Sat up for him at night,
Not quite so much from sentiment
As from her sense of right.
He urged upon her not to lose
Her beauty sleep, but she
Would smile and ask him to excuse
A wife’s anxiety.
The other night the shameless wretch,
Regardless of his spouse,
Went out, as she supposed, to catch
His usual evening souse.
But no; he softly slipped around
And through the back door crept
Upstairs, in silence mo.-ff profound,
To where he always slept.
She waited down below for him;
She waited long, ah me!
Her eyes with troubled tears were
dim,
Till finally, at 3
She left her post and went upstairs
Alone to wait and weep,
And found him, careless of her cares,
Curled up in bed asleep!
—The New York Times.
A STORY OF THE HAGUE.
An interesting story of the origin of
the first peace congress at The Hague
is related by the exceptionally well
informed St. Petersburg correspondent
of The Daily Telegraph, of London, on
what he describes as very high and,
indeed, unquestionable authority—so
that, he says, “there can be no doubt
as to the substantial truth of the nar
rative.”
The story runs that at Easter time
in 1898, when there were war clouds
menacing almost every nation of the
world, Germany and France had just
equipped their armies, at great ex
pense, with new and improved artil
lery, and it was incumbent upon Aus
tria and Russia, as their allies, to do
the same. But Gen. Kuropatkin, the
Russian minister of war, presented to
the emperor a remonstrance against
going to so great an expense, and a
suggestion that if Austria-Hungary
could be prevailed upon to refrain
from rearming her forces Russia might
do the same, and much would thus be
gained. In other words, mutual limita
tion of armaments would be precisely
equivalent to increase of armaments
in keeping the balance of power. This
suggestion impressed the emperor, and
he passed it on to Count Mouravieff,
his minister for foreign affairs, and
asked him to consider it, discuss it
with Mr. Witte, the minister for
finance, and report upon it.
Count Mouravieff seems himself to
Aave regarded the proposition favor
ably, but Mr. Witte would have none
of it, denouncing it as a suggestion
which never should have been made.
To attempt to execute it would be to
represent Russia as impecunious and
to impair her credit abroad. If new
guns were needed or any other ex
penses were necssary to keep Russia
up to the military standard of the
other great powers, the finance depart
ment would find the money in some
way. Nevertheless, Mr. Witte was
not enamored of militarism, and he
suggested that if all Europe could be
persuaded to limit its armaments, that
would be worth while, and the result
would be enormous profit. If the Eu
ropean states could content them
selves with merely nominal armies, as
did the United States of America, and.

confine their defenses to warships,
they would thrive in an unprecedented
way, and rule the best part of the
globe. Such a scheme was, he thought,
worthy of the emperor’s attention.
Count Mouravieff reported to the
emperor the substance of his discus
sion with Mr. Witte, possibly, how
ever, taking credit to himself for the
latter’s grandiose plan. Next a spe
cial council was called by the emperor,
including Count Mouravieff, Count
Lamsdorff, Gen. Kuropatkin and Mr.
Witte, at which Gen. Kuropatkin's
original suggestion was first discuss
ed. Mr. Witte repeated his criticisms
of it, and was supported by Counts
Mouravieff and Lamsdorff, and the
plan was rejected. Then Count
Mouravieff presented a draft of a cir
cular to the powers aiming at some
such understanding as Mr. Witte had
proposed, and the final outcome was
the issuing of the invitation to the
first congress at The Hague. So, as
the correspondent cited suggests, the
credit of the peace congress is di
vided among three. Gen. Kuropatkin
is entitled to some, for his protest
against heavy military expenditures
and his suggestion of limitation of ar
maments by two powers; Mr. —now
Count —Witte is entitled to some, for
his radical enlargement of his col
league’s plan, and the emperor is en
titled to some, for his benevolent ac
ceptance of and action upon his min
ister’s suggestions. Perhaps, too,
Count Mouravieff also contributed to
the result, because of “his taste for
diplomatic fireworks.”
It was one of the ironies of fate
that, after such an effort for peace,
Gen. Kuropatkin should have been
forced to bear the brunt of a gigantic
and disastrous war, which had been
brought about by the intrigues and
machinations of others. But it must
be said that many of his comments
upon that war strongly support the
story which we have quoted. No man
more keenly realized Russia’s unpre
paredness for war or the utterly need
less and wanton character of that con
flict, and it is easy to believe that
some of the intensity of his expres
sions was inspired by the reflection
that this was the sequel to his initial
move for peace among the nations. —

WATCHES FOR THE BLIND.
“I want a watch,” said a student
from the Kansas Institute for the blind
as he entered a jewelry store on the
West Side.
“Sorry, but I haven’t a blind man’s
watch,” replied the jeweler. “Have one
next week.”
As the blind man left the store sev
eral men who were listening began to
laugh.
“What are you laughing at?” asked
the jeweler.
“Who ever heard of a blind man’s
watch?” replied one of them. “How
>could he see what time it was?”
“Don’t see, feels.”
“Feels?”
“Yes, feels and hears.”
“A blind man’s watch is just like any
other watch, except that instead of
hands on the dial the figures rise up
at the hour and the minutes are told
by little ‘pegs.’ Some have a spring
which you press and it strikes like a
clock. A system of long and short
strokes indicates the quarters and
hours and a number of taps indicate
the minutes. Thus, he presses the
spring at 2:15 o’clock. The watch
strikes twice, pauses a second, strikes
once quickly, pauses again, and strikes
five quick strokes.” —Kansas City Star.
