His Fatal Error.

“Marriage license.”—Judge.
Patients.
"Takes a lot of patience to run an

"It certainly does. And none knows
this better than we doctors.’
Not Exactly.
A lady teacher in - a South London
council school was recently giving a
natural history lesson to a junior class.
In the course of it she gave some in¬
formation about the heron, and at the
end she asked the children, as a sim¬
ple home lesson, to write down what
they knew of the bird.'
Only one member of her class, she
says, was able apparently to set down
her ideas in writing, for next morning
only one essay was handed in.
And this one essay, written by a
little girl, read; “Dear Teacher: A
herron is a bloater."
Appeal Sustained.
A mouse being chased by a cat in
Mr. Joe’s brewery, fell into a vat of
beer. The cat sprang to the edge of
the vat and called: “Aha, Mrs.
Mouse, you had better have let me eat
you, than to drown.”
“Yes,” replied the mouse, “if you
will save me from this, you may eat
me.”
The cat went to the edge of the
tank and extended his paw, and the
mouse landed and ran hastily into its
hole.
“Come out,” demanded the argry
cat, “redeem your promise and let me
■devour you."
“Oh, no,” said the mouse, “when 1
made it I was in liquor.”
LIGHT BREAKS IN
Thoughtful Farmer Learns About
Coffee.
Many people exist in a more or less
hazy condition and it oft.en takes years
before they realize that tea and cof¬
fee are often the cause of the cloudi¬
ness, and that there is a simple way
to let the light break in.
A worthy farmer had such an exper¬
ience and tells about it, in a letter. He
says:
"For about forty years, I have had
indigestion and stomach trouble in
various forms. During the last 25
years I would not more than get over
one spell of bilious colic until another
would be upon me.
“The best doctors I could get and
all the medicines I could buy, only
gave me temporary relief.
"Change of climate was tried with¬
out results. I could not sleep nights,
had rheumatism and my heart would
palpitate at times so that it seemed
it would jump out of my body.
“I came to the conclusion that there
was no relief for me and that I was
about wound up, when I saw a Postum
advertisement. I had always been a
coffee drinker, and got an idea from
the ad. that maybe coffee was the
cause of my trouble.
“I began to use Postum instead of
coffee and in less than three weeks I
felt like a new man. The rheumatism
left me, and I have never lrad a spell
of bilious colic since.
“My appetite is good, my digestion
never was better and 1 can do more
work than before for 40 years.
“I haven’t tasted coffee since I be¬
gan with Postum. My wife makes it
according to directions and I relish it
as well as I ever did coffee, and I was
certainly a slave to coffee.”
Name given by Postum Co.. Battle
Creek, Mich. Write for copy of the lit¬
tle book, “The Road to Wellville.”
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum—must be well boiled.
Instant Postum is a soluble powder.
A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a
cup of hot water and, with the addi¬
tion of cream and sugar, makes a de
licious beverage instantly.
“There’s a reason" for Postum.

IN THEJIMALAYAS
Wilds Where Peasant Eats at
Peril of His Life.
Naked Peaks of the Mountains Glitter
a Hundred Miles Away and in
Their Unfathomable Ravine
Even Sun Has Little Effect.
London.—I have just finished a jour¬
ney which must ever be memorable
to me. For of many appealing parts
of the world few held such a lure for
me as the Himalayas, which lair in
their recesses of snow and forest some
of the fiercest of earth’s creatures,
j Their naked peaks glitter a hundred
miles away, and their unfathomable ra¬
vines and forests even the Indian sun
leaves damp and cold. The trees are
sublime in their profusion and in
their beardings of mosses and creeper
drapery, and they throw out wildly
contorted arms across immense gulfs
in which the eagles swim. Amid it all
the narrow paths go twining, now
clinging to some precipitous ledge,
now caving deeply into a hillside, then
coming out suddenly upon a corner
that dominates a depth of immense
profundity ip which the very air seems
to assume a tint of blue. At these
corners cdld winds come rushing by,
edging along the cliffs, and salute one
with the tang of the far-off snow. Else¬
where the track winds into the re-en¬
trant of a ravine, the air is still, the
sun is hot, and from the depths below
creeps up, as through the mouth of
some alchemist’s funnel, the subtle
odor of the pines. You may see a hut
far down, with its row of terraces of
cultivated land cut out of the steep
above it, and a cow or buffalo grazing
there, while a semi-naked urchin lolls
beside it.
The forest is full of citizens, fur¬
tive, busy, and watchful. You know
not what strange, wild creature slinks
from your path as it hears your foot¬
fall, nor if there be not a panther
watching you with stealthy eyes from
the shadow of an overhanging rock.
As I have been walking I have twice
started khakur (barking deer) in the
thicket beside me, and seen them leap
forth and away like arrows, with a
noise of crashing boughs. The mag¬
nificent hill pheasants, pecking on the
track among the droppings of the pack
ponies, slide like shadows into the un¬
dergrowth as you draw near. To a
stranger this is all romance, but to
the poor peasant it is sadly workaday.
In the Desolate Himalayas.
It is not only by the sweat of his brow
that he must eat bread, but at the
peril of his life. No place is so devas¬
tated by wild animals. They take
their toll of his flocks and herds—aye,
and of his family. In the veranda of
the dark bungalow where I am staying
is a printed notice of government of¬
fering 500 rupees for the destruction
of a man-eating tiger that is infesting
this region. Leopards are extremely
bold, and seem to have no fear of
man, though they seldom attack him.
One, however, was destroyed this
year, the famous Almora leopard,
which within five years had taken 300
human lives.
BITING CRAB CAUSES WRECK
Fighting Crustacean Pinches Motor¬
cyclist and Near Causes His
Death as Result.
Philadelphia.—After scarrying a bas¬
ket of live crabs from Wildwood on
the tandem seat of his motorcycle,
Herold Wilson, twenty-three years old,
of 177 Westmoreland street, was seri¬
ously injured at Kensington and Le¬
high avenues when one of the crusta¬
ceans pinched him in the back and
caused him to lose control of his ma¬
chine. Wilson made a desperate ef¬
fort to sweep the crab from his back
and guide his motorcycle at the same
time, but finally landed with his ma¬
chine in the street. In the morning
Wilson set out to Wildwood to visit
friends. After spending part of the
day with them he strapped a basket
of crabs on the rear seat of his motor¬
cycle and started for Philadelphia. He
made the journey without a mishap
until he reached Kensington and Le¬
high avenues. Here one of the crabs
managed to get loose and applied his
nippers to Wilson’s back. The motor¬
cycle was wrecked and Wilson was re¬
moved to the Episcopal hospital, with
concussion of the brain and probable
internal injuries.

EGYPT’S TOMB OF THE BULLS
Dr. E. A. Thompson of Andover,
Mass., Regards This as One of .
Country's Greatest Wonders.
Washington.—“To me, one of the
most interesting sights of a tour
around the world, which I have just
completed, is the tomb of the bulls in
Egypt” said Dr. E. A. Thompson, of
Andover; Mass., at the Raleigh.
“After a camel trip of fifteen or six¬
teen miles south of the Pyramids,
across the Sahara desert, one comes
to the tomb of the bulls, where in an¬
cient times the mummified remains of
the sacred bulls, which were then wor¬
shiped by the Egyptians, were entomb¬
ed. After passing through a tunnel
half a mile long under the desert, one
comes to the rooms where the bulls
were formerly buried. After digging
out the rooms immense granite bowl¬
ders 18 feet long, 8 feet high and 10
At Tomb of the Bulls.
feet wide were dragged to these rooms
by some power of which modern civi¬
lization knows nothing. The center of
these huge granite bowlders was then
hollowed out in the form of a vault,
in which the mummified bulls were
laid away with religious ceremonies.
There are 47 of these tombs in all,
and I visited 27 of them. How in the
world these great granite pillars were
put into place or where they came
from nobody knows, but these im¬
mense tombs are one of the most
marvelous things I encountered on
my entire trip.
“The bulls have all been removed
from the tombs, having been taken
out during different wars.
“The Sphinx is also a wonderful
work of art, with Its head of a woman
and body of a lion. A temple has only
recently been discovered in the head
of the Sphinx, but I did not visit it.
Next to the tomb of the bulls, the
catacombs at Rome are probably the
most interesting tombs in the Old
World. They have already excavated
570 miles of catacombs and are still
excavating.”
SHARK TANGLES A FISH BET
Five Dollars in Real Money Involved
in Knotty Problem Regarding
Big Catch.
Darby, Pa.—Declaring he had been
made the victim of a conspiracy which
caused the loss of an unlawful bet,
Robert E. Lee, former president of the
Darby health board, will write to the
fish commission to obtain a legal opin¬
ion as to whether a shark is fish or
some other animal. Together with
Coroner E. F. Carr and Deputy Coro¬
ner Charles H. Drewes of Darby; C.
Raymond Lee, former councilman of
Colwyn, and Orville Lentz, Lee went
on a fishing trip from Tuckerton. Be
for starting the five fishermen made a
pool of one dollar each, the whole sum
—five dollars—to be given to the man
catching the largest fish. After the
quintet had pulled in nearly 200 weak
fish, Lee excitedly yelled that he had
the pool, and began to take reef holds
on his line, which suddenly began to
slip through his hands so fast that the
skin was burned. After fifty fathom
of extra strong fishing twine had run
out and the boat had dragged its an¬
chor half a square, Lee, after 15 min
uts’ hard work, pulled up a 90-pound
shark. After it was landed on the
deck and killed with an ax, Lee
claimed the five dollars, but the others
in the party said a shark is not a fish
and put it up to the captain, who
promptly agreed that a shark is not
a fish, but a mammal, and that all bets
were off. “I knew the whale was a
mammal,” said Lee, “but if a shark is
in that class it is something new to
me.”
Box Car Romance.
Minneapolis.—As a result of a boy
writing his sister’s name on a new
box car as it left the shops in Pitts¬
burgh a year ago, Ernest Noon of Mia
neapolis. and Miss Margaret M. Bar¬
ker of iPttsburgh were married here.
Noon, who is a railway employe, saw
the name written by the boy, wrote
to Miss Barker and a corespondence
sprang up which ended in the mar¬
riage. „

fall. He made another attempt; he
gingerly picked his way, muttering as
he went: ‘Sure and God’s good, sure
and God’s good, and the devil ain’t
a bad fellow at all, at all.’ He re¬

Testing Hardness of Steel.
A very simple device has recently
been invented for testing the hard¬
ness of steel by impact. It consists
of a tubular standard fitted with a
hardened steel ball at the lower end,
which is placed upon the steel to be
tested. At the upper end of the stand¬
ard is a spirit level by which the
standard may be brought to true ver¬
tical position. Mounted on the standard
is a cylindrical drop weight. This is
raised to the top of the standard and
then dropped, striking a weight-re¬
ceiving block at the bottom of the
standard, which communicates the Im¬
pact to the steel ball, and makes an
indentation in the steel that is being
tested. By measuring the diameter
of the indentation with a celluloid
scale the hardness of the steel may
be determined.

REALLY FRIENDS OF FARMER
Sparrow, by Ita Consumption of Weed
Seeds, Saves Agriculturists Im¬
mense Sums Yearly.
One of the most useful groups of na¬
tive birds is the sparrow family.
While some of the tribe wear gay
suits of many hues, most of the spar¬
rows are clad in modest brown tints,
and as they spend much of the time
in grass and weeds are commonly
overlooked Unobtrusive as they are,
they lay the farmer under a heavy
debt of gratitude by their food habits,
sin«-e thetr chosen fare consists large
| ly of the seeds of the weeds. Selecting the
i a typical member of the group,
| : tree sparrow of weed for seed instance, day one-fourth is
ounce per a con¬
servative estimate of the food of an
! adult. On this basis, in a large agricul
tural state like Iowa tree sparrows an
i nually eat approximately 875 tons of
I weed seed.
| Some idea of of birds the money the value of
i this group to country may
j be gained from the statement that the
| total value of the farm products in the
United States in 1910 reached the
amazing sum of $8,926,000,000. If we
estimate that the total consumption of
weed seed by the combined members
of the sparrow family resulted in a
saving of only one per cent, of the
crops—not a violent assumption—the
sum saved to farmers by these birds
in 1910 was $89,260,000.
DADDY HAD HAD FULL MEAL

Man to Realization of What He
Made Away With.
One night last week papa got home
late. There had been so many things
to attend to at the office—and after
that a customer from out of town had
arrived, and—well, papa got home
awfully late. He hated to disturb the
family, so he camped in the dining
•room. And in the morning, being thirs¬
ty, he arose, drank water, and retired
under the table again.
Then came his little son, the earliest
to arise. Little son viewed the situa¬
tion in the dining room, then lifted up
his voice and wept.
“What’s the matter?” groaned papa.
“You’ve gone and drank up all the
water in that glass aquarium you gave
me for Christmas.”
“Well, never mind that. You can
put some fresh water-in it, and it’ll be
all the better.” v
“Yes, but who’s goin’ to put fresh
goldfish and pollywogs and mud tur¬
tles in it?”
Then papa sat up and took notice.—

DREW THE LINE AT
One Thing Frederic Remington Insist¬
ed on While Undergoing Medi¬
cal Treatment.
Augustus Thomas, in his recollec¬
tions of Frederic Remington, relates
the following: “One Sunday morning
in those later days I went with him
to the office of an osteopathic physi¬
cian who was treating him. The os¬
teopathy was a slight man and not tall.
Remington, lying face downward on
the operating table, presented a sky¬
line so much higher than that of the
average patient that the doctor stand¬
ing on the floor lacked the angle of
pressure necessary to his treatment.
The doctor, therefore, mounted a
chair, from which he stepped to the
table, and finally sat astride of Rem¬
ington, applying his full weight to the
manipulation which he was giving to
the spinal column. I hope I’m not hurt¬
ing you, Mr. Remington?' said the doc¬
tor. Remington answered, ‘It’s all
right, doctor, as long as you don't use
your spurs.’ ”
DEEP CRACKS ON JOINTS
P. O. Box 378, El Paso, Texas.—“My
trouble began December, 1911. It com¬
menced on me by causing a scurf-like
skin and my toe joints, finger joints
and lips commenced to crack and
split open. My finger cracks would
bleed all day long; the cracks were
very deep and my thumb seemed to
be cracked to the bone. My hands
were so bad that I had to sleep with
gloves on. The cracks in my lips
would bleed often during the day and
I used to put adhesive plaster across
them to try to keep them closed. My
toes would bleed, and I would find
blood in my socks when the day’s
work was done. The skin around the
cracks was red and inflamed. I wore
shoes one size too large on account of
my feet being so sore. I used to be¬
come frantic with pain at times. My
hands and feet used to smart.
“I suffered agony for four months,
I went to town and got some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. From the time I
commenced with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment until completely cured
was just nineteen days.” (Signed)
Jack Harrison, Nov. 19, 1912.
