There is a story about Walker
Breese Smith at Tuxedo -which is
rather anrasing. Mr. Smith is one
of the few New York men who wear
a monocle. In his case—and he is
always ready to admit it—it is ar
ranged to cleverly conceal a glass
eye, Mr. Smith Iwving-had the mis^
fortune to lose one of his eyes years
ago. When golf -was in the height
of its popularity, Mr. Smith went in
for all the rigors of the game. He
played nnder an instructor. This
man was rather insistent upon his
pupil following every rule of the
game. He was constant in his in
struction, “Put your eye on the
ball.”
At last Mr. Smith, after making
several flukes in his strokes, was re
minded again, ‘Tut your eye on the
ball.” Suiting the action to the
word and taking the meaning liter-
ally. Smith, to the astonishment of
the instructor and the horror of the
caddie, removed his monocle, and
then, taking out his glass eye, de
liberately stuck it on the ball and,
turning around exclaimed:
“Now, there! Is that all right?”

Bigger Grain Crops Possible.
The department of agriculture is
trying to push plant breeding in
this country. It is a branch of
farming work that" is pursued much
more diligently in Europe than in
the United States, and if it were
carried on as it should be on this
side of the water most important
benefits would accrue to the pro
ducers of our crops. Only within
the last few years has it been real
ized that plant life is to a wonderful
extent subject to man’s, control. He
is almost able to. act- the part of. a
creator in the vegetable world, so
greatly is it in his power to modify
species by hybridizing and by arti
ficial selection. The government is
already conducting such work on
quite an extensive scale.—Saturday

Melting Iron In Five Seconds.
Iron .is said to have been melted
in five seconds in a recent experi
ment carried out by Mr. Louis
Dreyfus at Mr. T. A. Edison’s lab
oratory at Orange, N. J. Mr. Drey
fus represented the Goldschmidt
Chemical Thermo Industrie of Es
sen, Germany. He covered an iron
wrench in a crucible with a secret
composition and added a small
quantity of powdered^ aluminium.
The wrench, which was .six inches
lqng and one-half inch thick, was
melted in five seconds after the
mixture was set on fire, the tem
perature being estimated at 3/100
degrees C. The process is sug
gested as being applicable to the
melting-of rails and pipes.

A Physician Testifies.
“I have taken Kodol Dyspep
sia Cure and have never used any
thing in my life that did me the
good that did,” says County Phy
sician Geo. W. Scroggs of Hall
County, Ga. “Being a physician
I have precribed it and found it
to give the best results.” If the
food you eat remains undigested
in your stomach it decays there
and poisons the system You can
prevent this by dieting but that
means starvation. Kodol Dys
pepsia Cure digests what, you eat.
You need suffer from neither dys
pepsia nor starvation. The worst
cases quickly cured. Never fails.

The sultan of Turkey recently
played an amusing joke at the ex
pense of some medical experts at
Constantinople. When the plague
broke out in his capital, the sultan
asked if anything was known as to
the cause. On being informed that
if was to be found in the state of
the drinking water he called at onee
for six empty bottles, which he had
filled in his presence, all from the
same one of the palace wells, placed
his own seal upon them and then,
without divulging their community
of origin, handed all six to a promi
nent analyst. To his amazement
the report sent in was that four of
the samples contained plague mi
crobes. The fifth was merely pu
trid water and the sixth was quite
pure. Abdul Hamid calmly shrug
ged his shoulders, and kept his
thoughts to himself. ,
The General Wilted.
On one notable occasion the czar
reduced a Russian general to a
frightful state of consternation. It
happened soon after his accession
and before his coronation that he
was, cycling in the park at Gats-
china, wearing, as was his wont, the
uniform of a colonel. Something
having gone wrong with his chain
he got off to adjust it, and just at
that moment a pompous general
from a distant province passed. Not
receiving the salute due to him
the officer stepped up to the suppos
ed colonel anatperemptorily request
ed an explanation of the seeming
discourtesy.
“I am so sorry,” said the czar
sweetly, “I have not yet had the
honor of becoming acquainted with
you owing to the shortness of my
reign, or I should, of course, have
done so.”
It Is Hot In the Arctic Circle.
Mrs. Aubrey Le Blond, whose
name is more familiar to moun
taineers as Mrs. Main, has been
camping at Jaegersvand, by TJlfs-
flord, in Lapland, and if any one im
agines that a camp within the arctiq
circle is a safe refuge from the heat
of an exceptionally torrid summer
this lady’s experience should unde
ceive them, for her thermometer
gayly varied from 55 to 83 degrees
in the shade during the early part
of August. Close at hand, too,
there is a great lake, from which
clouds of mosquitoes rise perpetu
ally, but on the other side are great
peaks, glacier clad, rising in white
majesty to the silent sky, a very
paradise—and almost an unknown
paradise—for climbers.—London
