The President has increased his life insurance to the extent ot SOO,OOO and now carries a total of $70,000. The last policy was taken from one the big \e\v N ork com panies and the agent who secured it got, in addition to his regular commission, n gold medal from his company. The company does not consider the President an extra hazardous risk. He paid just the j same rate per thousand that any other man of his age would lie charged, and on account of his rugged health and sound constitu tion the company considers it did a fine stroke of business, aside from the benefit it will get in free advertising, when it w rote a $50,- 000 pol icy on hi in. Mrs. Roosevelt remained in New York to do some shopping and to arrange for putting their Oyster Bay House, where the family ex pects to spend much of the sum mer, in condition, and Miss Alice has been performing the duties jof housekeeper and helping her father entertain his lunch and dinner guests, and she does it well, as Mrs. Roosevelt believes that every girl should bo taught how to manage a household. Miss Alice is also getting quite a reputation as a whip. She drives a high ! double seat dog cart quite fre quently, and drives a pair quite as well as a single horse. 1 saw her .leave the White House the other afternoon entirely alone, driving Ia double team, but she called on nearby friends and soon had three girls with her. The party then went for a long drive without foot man or lackey. Mr. Edward Atkinson, of Boston the gentleman who once upon a time invented a scheme and a stove by which every man could be his own cook and live well on ten cents a day, is the maddest man in Washington, and consider ing the state of mind of several prominent members <>f the House that is saying a great deal. He came to Washington cocked and primed with second-hand informa tion about the Philippines, expec ting to be a witness before the Senate committee on the Philip pines, but members of that com mittee took the ground that as Mr. Atkinson had never been to the Philippines he could not have any information that would justi fy the committee in assisting him to a little fresh notoriety, and voted not to hear him as a witness. Official society is in a great flurry: that is the feminine side of it. The cause is the coming for the first time of Mine Gambon, wife of the French Ambassador, on a social visit to Washington. Mrs. Hay, wife <>f the Secretary of State, Ims sent a note to the wives of all the officials whom official etiquette, as she interprets it, re quires to call upon the wife of an ambassador, and the note is re garded as a social command by those who have received copies of it. All the wives of senators re moved these noies, but none went to wives of representatives, al though some of the latter are among the leaders in society. Like all previous attempts to en force social rules similar to those in vogue in Europeon capitals this one has started several thous and tongues to wagging. Mine Cambon is expected to reach Washington next week. Mr. Justice Harlan is not only an enthusiastic golfer, but an early golfer. He makes a prac tice in good weather of getting around the links before breakfast. Although his early habits ur<> known, he greatly surprised a golf ing friend, who thought himself an unusually early bird, the other morning ar 7:80. * Meeting Just ice Harlan out, near the links, in knickerbockers and carrying a bag of clubs, he asked: “Going out to play, judge?” “Oh no, re turned the justice, with a smile: "1 have already been around. I am now going home for break fast.” He has been trying to figure how early the justice must have started to have gotten around the links and have been on his ; way home at 7 :80. Men who voluntarily relinquish office and men who refuse to ac cept a tendered office are so rarely seen in Washington that they never fail to attract attention when known. Two of them met on the street in front of the Treas ury building one day this week, both from New England, and ex changed a handshake and “dow dy.” They were Hon. Thomas B. THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, MAY 1, 1902. Reed, who retired from a seat in the House that lie cpukl have kept as long as he lived, because he was given a guarantee of ten times the income to join a New York law firm, and Hon. W. M. Crane, of Mass., who declined a Cabinet portfolio, because he liked his business and its big profits. W hen (iov. Crane was asked if the Pres ident had sent for him to come to Washington he laughingly replied : “No, 1 wasn’t sent for, but I have seen the President.” The business that brought Gov. Crane to Wash ington was the signing of anew contract for the distinctive paper upon which 1. tt. currency is printed, which is made and fur nished by a company of which he is president and principal owner. Mr. and .Mrs. Westinghouse, who now own the big residence built by the late James (J. Blaine, have as guest Lord and Lady Kel vin, of Scotland. Lord Kelvin is in Washington especially to at tend the meetings of the Ameri can Social Science Association. Lord Kelvin was professor of nat ural history in the Glasgow Uni versity for fifty years, and was knighted in lhfjfi for the invention of the aparatus for sending cable messages, and lie was made a peer in 1*92. He is credited with hav ing been the first to suggest thei utilization for manufacturing pur poses of the power of Niagara Falls, and is one of the world’s 1 best known scientists. Ho lias 1 stirred up some of his brother j scientists by declaring that he be lieved the idea of practical air ships to be chimerical. DON’T START WRONG.

Blackburn. Barnesville, Ga. L. Holmes, Milner, Ga. The following is a true story told in verse by a western paper about Mary’s little lamb up-to date. May it be carefully read by those who hang around the church door on Sunday, and also by Mary, who is on the inside-; “Mary had a little lamb it followed her to church, and stood around the door like an owl upon his perch. Why don’t the little lamb come in, the watchful people cried? While Mary told the silly thing to watch for her outside. So you, each gentle maiden, may and all still find, some sheophead waiting near the door, if you admire that kind. WANTS OTHERS TO KNOW. “I have used DeWitt’s Little Early Risers for constipation and tropid liver and they are all right. I am glad to indorse them for I think when we find a good thing we ought to let others know it,” writes Alfred Heinze, Quincy, 111. They never gripe or dis tress. Sure, safe pills. Jno. H.

MI / • HOUSEWORK Too much housework wrecks wo rnen's nerves. And the constant ' care of children, day and night, is often too trying for even a strong woman. A haggard face tolls the I story of the overworked housewife and mother. Deranged menses, leucorrhma and falling of the womb result from overwork. Every housewife needs a remedy to regulate her menses and to keep her sensitive female organs in perfect condition. WINE of cardui is doing this for thousands of American women to-day. It cured Mrs. Jones and that is why she writes this frank letter: Olendoane, Ky., Feb. 10,1901. 1 am so g!ad that your Wine of Cardui is helping me. lam feeling better t han I have felt for years. I am doing my own work without tiny help, and I washed last week and was not one bit tired. That shows that the Wine is doing me good. I am getting fleshier than I ever was before, and sleep good and eat hei rtv. Before I began taking Wine of Cardui, I used to have to lay I down five or six times every day, but I now Ido not think of lying down through I the day. Mas. Richard Jones.

Worms Mcke Long Halls and Plaster Them In Their Homes. The worm’s home is a hole of long halls dug in the ground. These halls are lined with a kind of glue from the worm’s body, the glue making the walls firm, so they will not fall in. The balls are not very deep underground, and when the weather is cold or dry the worms dig deeper. In winter worms plug up Ihe doors of iheir houses, and this is done often bv dragging into it a plant stem that will fit it. They carry into their homes leaves and stalks to eat, and they bring out and throw away things which they do not like. Worms usually come out of their holes at night or in wet weather. If they get far from their homes, they cannot find their way back. Then they make anew hole. Each worm lives alone. In the evening or early morning or dur ing rain you will often find worms with their heads stuck out of their doors. They do not come out when the sun is sinning bright, as the heat dries worms up very fast and kills them. Birds know the habits of worms and search for them at sunrise or after sunset or while-it is raining. A worm will die in one day in dry air, but will live for weeks under water. Young worms know as well how to build their houses and carry things in and out of them as do old worms. Answered. A certain learned professor was instructing a class of schoolboys about the circulation of the blood. To make sure that they understood he proceeded to question them. “Can }’ou tell me,” said he, “why it is that if I were to stand on my head there would ho a rush of blood to my head and that there is no rush of blood to the feet when I stand upon them?” For a moment there was silence, and then a small boy answered: “It’s because your feet are not empty, 6ir.” Stoves Are Not Needed. A tribe of natives known as Mao ris, living in New Zealand, cook their potatoes and other articles of food in a very novel way. There are sev eral volcanoes in the land, and many of the Maoris live np in the moun tains near them. In various places volcanic steam and hot water issue from the ground. The natives make use of tiiese in preparing their meals. Can You Circle a Cane? Tell any one about this trick, and the chances are ten to one that he will laugh and say how easy it is. Induce him then to do it, and you will soon find that it will be you and not lie who will laugh. All that the victim has to do is to stand in the middle of a room in the position shown in the accom panying picture. The cane over which he is to stoop should be stout and strong, and its handle should be THIS IS THE CORRECT POSITION. pressed against his forehead. More over, his left hand should be closed and should rest on his left knee. After standing thus for two or three minutes he is to move slowly around the stick, still retaining the same attitude. This circular mo tion he will not be able to continue very long, for a strange giddiness will gradually overcome him, and his only hope of safety lies in stag gering to some piece of furniture, which lie can grasp. The Queen’s Messenger. Spider, splr.ner, you're very lau! What do you think will be your fate Should the fairy queen and court arrive To find the tent you promised to spin Of the glossiest web at precisely five Not ready for holding the dances in? She may change you into a tiny gnat Or a fly or something worse than that! There's only an hour before the ball To finish the room for our dance tonight, So that when the dew shall fall It will spangle all with silver light. You've wasted time in catching flies; I read the truth in your eight green eyes! To work with a will, for the sun is low. And soon the moon comes over the hill; The fairies begin to gather, you knew. As soon as they hear the whippoorwill. Haste, then; spin, or you'll be too late. The fairy queen will never watt. And unless the pavilion shall be complete. The snug gray roof with dew pearls spread. The silken rug for the fairy feet. Oh, spider, you may qqake with dread! —Tudor Jenks in St Nicholas. IMPORTANT TO COTTON GINNERS.
