General Caviglia, commander of the Italian regulars investing Fiume, in a proclamation, to be conveyed to i'Annunzio, by airplane, says it is the intention of the Italian government to enforce the conditions of the Ra- pullo treaty without delay. It is semi-officially announced in Rome that, as the government’s or der calling upon the regency of Fi ume to withdraw its troops behind the frontiers had not been obeyed, General Caviglia has summoned the regency not to prevent the free de parture of Italian warships from the port of Fiume. The Milan correspondent of the Lon don Times says that the blockade of Fiume is only intended to prevent any eventual hostile movement and not in tended to hinder commerce.

Dodson is making a hard fight against calomel in the South. Every druggist has noticed a great failing off in the sale of calomel. They all give the same reason, Dodson’s Liver Tone is taking its place. “Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone lr perfectly safe arid gives better results," said a prominent local druggist. Dod son’s Liver Tone is personally guaran teed by every druggist. A large bottle costs but a few cents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every case of liver sluggishness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back. Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant- tasting, purely vegetable remedy, harmless to both children and adults. Take a spoonful at night and wake up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick head ache, acid stomach or constipated bowels. It doesn’t gripe or cause incon venience all the next day like violent calomel. Take a dose of calomel to day and tomorrow you will feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don’t lose a day’B work! Tnke Dodson’s Liver Tone in stead and feel fine, full of vigor and ambition.—Adv.

Mr. Horton has completed his job of painting our church on the inside, which adds a lot to the appearance. Tortoiseshell Prom Cotton. Most of the so-called tortoiseshell rims that are put around e.ve-ginsses never had anything- to do with a tor toise. They are made from cotton. In fact, many umbrella handles, hair pins, combs, buttons, buckles and bracelets are also made from cotton. The cotton is first turned into tissue paper; this is threaded, dried and dusted. Next the paper threads are dipped into a mixture of nitric and sulphuric acids. The moisture is pressed out of it and the remainder Is ground fine. It is mixed with ether, alcohol, camphor and other things to form a doughlike mass. Under hy draulic pressure the dough is kneaded and molded into cakes. The cakes are sliced and hung up to season. Dies cut the material into its final form, and it is shaped, polished and drilled. While the material is still plastic the proper dyes are added. The most common colorings are ivory, tortoise shell and pearl. Tuning Church Bells. An English clergyman, s*ys the Lon don Telegraph, was the first to call the attention of the musical publip to the fact that bells are rarely In tune, and that the fault can be remedied if a church bell was originally in tune with itself. According to his theory, a bell must have at least five tones at correct Intervals to form a perfect musical chord. At first the work of tuning was done with a hammer, a chisel and a file, and a magnificent tenor bell in Norfolk, England, was thus reduced three-quarters of an inch In diameter; but modern bell foun dries employ a machine with a revolv ing cutter that shaves the metal near the crown of the bell until the tuner, aided by a tuning fork, has hit-the right pitch. Arts of Spinning and Weaving. The development of the arts of spin ning and weaving took place so early in the history of civilization that no records of their beginnings are pre served. At the time of Alexander’s expedition to India the natives of that region wore shawls of grent beauty. The Greeks learned many processes of woolen manufacture from the Egyptians, and the Romans after pick ing up the art from the Greeks passed it on to the occidental world. Woolen garments were worn by the Romans at a very early period. It is probable that the first lessons the ancient Brit ons received in the art were derived immediately after the Roman con quest. When the Curtain Went Up. While visiting some friends at a re sort, I met and became quite attached !o a young man. One night he was sitting with his arm around me on a iarge porch. There was a window behind us, but as the shade was down we thought no one would see us. We were talking cf our future, of how bappy we would be, when suddenly we heard a lot of children yelling, “Mov es, five cents a look.” We turned juickly and sayv the shade up, and a irowd of people watching us. Fortu nately it was dark on the porch be muse I don’t think they saw how em- larrassed we were.”—Exchange. Monster Eggs. An egg, equivalent in size to 150 hens’ eggs, and in volume to two gal lons, is on view in the museums. The egg was laid centuries ago by a now extinct fowl, the nepyornis, and is des ignated as njffossil by archeologists. The nepyornis, according to the results of expert research, was a huge wing less creature, the largest and most for midable bird of prey that ever trod the earth. In life it has been various ly estimated to have stood from seven to twelve feet in hight, possessing massive and powerful limbs. This great bird surpassed the ostrich, the king of modern birds, both in size, herculean strength and build. It for merly lived in considerable numbers on the Island of Madagascar. Gas Meter Is Accurate. Put 100 of the best watches against 100 gas meters in a test for accuracy, expose to the. same varying conditions of heat, cold, humidity and the meters will win out every time, sms a bul letin. The gas meter is regarded as one of the most accurate measuring instruments In use today. Like the registering turnstile in parks, rail road stations and fair grounds, the meter will not operate unless some thing passes through it. The mech anism is not set in motion and the Indicator hands cannot move except as gas passes through and makes them move. It Is interesting to know that the qriginal mechanical principles adopted in 1844 for the correct meas urement of gas still persist and that while hundreds of inventors have en deavored to discover something better, they have Improved upon detail*
