LABASTINE s not a discase-breeding, hot water glue wall finish, furnish ing & lodgment and harbor-ground for disease germs; it is a natural, rock-base ocomposition, in white and many exquisitely beautiful tints; in powder form, ready for use by simply mixing with ecold water. Anyone can brush it on. ALABASTINE cements to walls, distroys disease germs and vermin, and never rubs off or scales. Other wall coatings, under fanoiful names, and usually mixed with hot water, are unhealthful kalsomines, stuck on the wall with glue, which soon rots, nourishes germs of deadly disease, rubs and scales, spoiling walls, clothing and furniture. When it is necessary to refinish, the old coats must be washed off—-an expensive, nasty, disagreeable job, making the reoms damp and unfit to live in. When walls are once coated with Alabastine, suoceeding coats may be applied, year after year, without washing the walls, thus saving great expense and annoyance. Hot and Cold Water Kalsomines Have No Merit Some dealers try to sell them, buying them cheap, and trying to sell on Alabastine’s demand until such time as their customers learn of the imposition. < THEY ARE WORTHLESS PREPARATIONS If you cannot buy Alabastine of your hardware, paint or drug dealer, refuse all imitations, and write us.

Different People Approach the Cere ] mony in Different Ways. To many people the taking of an oath on the Bible is a trifling matter, but to others it is an act of most se rious import, says the Philadelphia Telegraph. It is quite an interesting experience to witness the manner in which men and women prepare to tell “the truth, the whole truth and noth ing but tae truth,” whether it be in poliée station, coroner’s, civil or crim ‘inal court. Policemen carelessly slap a heavy hand on the leaves, Hebrews cover their heads and upraise the right hand before kissing the book, sailors stand at ‘“attention,” negroes and foreigners very often fear to touch the Holy Writ, while some un believers contemptuously try to shove the volume aside. Kissing the book has been abolished on account 'of sani tary reasons, but many persons still consider their oaths to be more bind ing if they can press moist or tobacco stained lips against germ infected covers. Others “swear not at all,” but affirm, A novel experience with a witness about to take an oath befell Attorney Gallagher in Judge Sulzberger’s court on Tuesday. The cases of seven poeti cal Chinamen who had been faring somewhat better than ordinary poets, because they wrote tneir couplets on policy slips, were being heard, and Moy Wong was called as the third Ce lestial witness for the prosecution. Mr. Gallagher, for the defense, chal lenged the witness’ veracity, claiming that the Chinese did not understand nor revernce the Bible enough to take an oath. Judge Sulzberger differed with him, but the question was set tled by the witness’ own words, calm ly delivered in excellent English: “I am a Christian and believe in this book. I am secretary of the Chinese Religious Society also.” The lawyer did not have a word to say. The inci dent provoked the recital of another by a lawyer later in the day. “In New York a woman arriving here on one of the liners from Ger many a few years ago wuas arrested upon landing. She was accused of being the most wicked female crimi nal in Germany, and had fled the coun try to escape punishment for being a partner ig a conspiracy to murder and rob. “In her daring carecer of crime she was said to have committeed three murders, had punched the eyes out of a child’s head with an umbrella, had robbed continuously, besides acting as a ‘fence’ for stolen goods, and had been imprisoned on fifty occasions. ‘When detained and taken in court she maintained that she was not the wo ‘man wanted, and swore to the truth: of her assertion upon the Bible. When confronted by persons who had known her in early life, she repeated this oath with blasphemous additions. Still the officers were not convinced, and finally one of them suggested that she take her oath upon a crucifix in stead of upon a Bible. This oath sol emnly calls upon God to witness the truth of the testimony about to be given, and to record it for the Judg ment Day. “When the woman heard this pro posal she paled visibly,. and tried to uphold the little cross in her trem-. bling right hand. But the demand was tco much. Shrieking, lamenting, curs ing, she broke down and confessed to a lifetime of evil that shocked even. the hardened officials who were forced to listen to the recital.” . Waste of Millions. - Dalnay harbor, near Port Arthur, built by Russia for an ice-free termi nal port for the Siberian railway at a cost of 17,000,000 rubles, is a disap poinment, for since the breakwater has been built it freezes over as did Vladivostok. The nearest possible ice-free bay is in Korean territory. Swiss watches, according to a re port just published, are becoming pop ular in China.
