A cheroot is only a cigar with
its head Cut off—and when you
buy three Old Virginia Cheroots
for 5 cents you pay the right price
for three good smokes, and noth
ing else.
The filler is made from the
short leaves and selected clippings
of five choice grades of domestic
tobacco—blended to give just the
combination of agreeable strength
and mild fragrance required to
make a good smoke. '
Not only a bargain in price,
but good. Not only good, but
clean. Made by modem prp-
cesses in the biggest and cleanest
cigar factory in the world.
A million sold every day —
you can get them at any qgar
counter in the country.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the
Best Made.
"In my opinion Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy Is the best made for
colds,” says Mrs. Cora Walker, of

other will cure a cold so quickly. No
other is so- sure a preventive of

good reasons why It should he

A Ver.utlu'Part.h Clerk.
The ancient parish clerk In England
had many functions. Letters were not
so common In those days as today, and
the clerk was. the . learned man of the
community. One of his functions was
writing epitaphs, but this was not the
sum of his accomplishments, as may
be seen from the advertisement of 'John
Hopkins, clerk of Salisbury lu the
eighteenth century:
John Hopkins, parish olerk and under
taker, sells epitaphs of all sorts and
prices. Shaves neat and plays the bas
soon. Teeth drawn, and the Salisbury

He Stepped the IVmtfhliiir.
One Sunday morning a clergyman
was greatly annoyed by the unusual
amount of coughing among his congre-
gatlon. He had not a stroug voice and
could only be distinctly heard when the
people were still and attentive. As the
coughing went on: and oven grew
worse, he suddenly stopped right lu the
middle of tho sermon. All eyes were
Instantly turned to the pulpit, every
cough was hushed and there was per
fect silence.
“My friends,” said the minister, with
a smile, “It seems you stop when I
stop.”
This gentle relinke hud the desired
effect. The people found that tholr
coughing could he kept down when
they liked to a great extent, and the
minister proceeded with tils sermon
under far more favorable conditions.
Ether and Stutter.
The densest matter is more or less
porous. Gold will absorb mercury as a
lump of sugar will absorb water, show*
lug there must be Interstices or Inter
atomic spaces in It, but the ether shows
no such property. If a drop of water
could be maguifled sufficiently one
would ultimately see the different
atoms of hydrogen and oxygen that
constitute the molecules of water. If
a small volume of ether could be thus
magnified the Indications are that the
ultimate part would look like the first,
which Is the same as saying that It Is
not made up of discrete particles, but
fills space completely. This Is express
ed by saying that the ether Is a con
tinuous medium and Is hence incom
parable with matter.

The oddest of all birds’ nests Is the

sentinel box for his own special use.
He sits In the box and keeps watch or
sings nearly all the time, and when
danger comes In the form of a hawk
or a snake he warns the family, but
never enters the main nest?.

OLD VIRGINIA
{A cheroot is a cigar made without the head)
A good part of the cost of a cigar
goes into the workmanship.
The “ bunching ” of the tobacco .
for the filler takes a little time. The
rolling of the filler in the one piece
of leaf which is called the “ binder,”
takes a little more time. The cut
ting and rolling of the outside leaf
or “wrapper” takes a little more.
But it is the finishing-operation
of forming the “ head ” that takes
most of the time, most of the skill,
and costs niost of the money.
And yet it’s nothing in the world
but waste,—for the first thing you
do is to dip off that “head” that
you have paid your good money
for, and throw it away.
If the dealer clipped off the heads
of three good five-cent cigars and
handed them all three to you fer 5
cents, you would call it a bar
gain;—and that’s exactly the kind
of trade you make when you
