Novel lee Cream Server. An entirely new method of serving Ice cream is the recent patent of a New York man. He abolishes the old system by means of a spoon, As shown in the illustration, this ice cream server is in the form of a cylin¬ der, which is attached to a handle. i Si v i W \ ,1 I yj Sliding within the handle and the cylinder are a piston and a plunger, bo devised that tho insertion of the instrument into the receptacle con¬ taining tho ice cream will cause the receiver to be filled. Pressure upon the piston causes the contents of the cylinder to be expelled. The plunger Is operated in a novel manner by means of a trigger which is net in the handle convenient for operation by the fingers of the operator.—Wash¬ ington Star.

One of the Ohio Congressmen tells the following as indicative of the pes* simistic view' of the average politician when in the throes of defeat: The day after the routing of Parker In 1904 one of the Democratic news¬ papers in the Buckeye State sent out I a circular telegram soliciting expres¬ sions of opinion from various poli¬ ticians throughout the State. It is claimed that the quaintest of the lot was the report of one county chair¬ man, expressed In these terms: “County has gone for Roosevelt by 150. The people are in minority. Heaven help us!” Philadelphia Ledger. Insulated Screwdriver. Working around electric wires with an ordinary screwdriver has been the cause of numerous injuries to the op¬ erators. Contact with the live wire, of course, results in a short circuit. How easily such accidents can be averted is shown by a Connecticut man, who has invented and patented k\ w the insulated screwdriver shown here. Instead of constructing the handle of wood it is made of non-conducting material. The latter also incases the metal shank to within a few inches of the end. This allows ample sur¬ face for the operator to grasp and operate the screwdriver without fear of being electrically shocked by con¬ tact with a live wire, and is thus as¬ sured of protection from such acci¬ dents.—Washington Star. Style Versus Fashion. A coat may be fashionable but not stylish, or it may be stylish and not fashionable. Fashion is capricious and ephemeral; sometimes sane and beautiful, but frequently the fad or fleeting folly of the moment. Fash¬ ion is for a day; style is for all time. —Tailor and Cutter. Real Life in The Country. -Life, to the average man, means hard, anxious work, with ment at the end, whereas it ought to /mean plenty of time lor hooks and talk. There is something wrong a system which condemns ninety-nine hundredths of the race to an tence as bare of intellectual activity and enjoyment as that of a horse and with the added anxiety concerning the next month’s rent. Is there escape? Through years of toil I sus pected that there might be such an escape. Now, having escaped, I am sure of it, so long as oatmeal is les3 than 3 cents a pound, so long as thp fish bite and the cabbage grows, I shall keep out of the slavery of mod¬ ern city existence, and live fn God’? cunshine.—Hubert.

Insects Make Excellent Gardeners In South America. Professor J. R. Ainsworth Davis gives latest proofs of the ant’s right to onr applause. He says: In trop¬ ical America the traveler in their native region often sees thousands of ants marching in column of route, each holding in its powerful jaws a piece of green leaf about the size of a sixpence. These they take to their nests. The material is used as an elaborate sort of mushroom culture, requiring mu'eh more skill and intelligence than that in which human beings engage. The mush¬ room flower sets spawn in the beds he prepares, hut the ant does not need to do this. The desired spawn soon makes its appearance In the chewed leaf. But in its natural state it Is inedible, and must undtergo careful treatment before it yields the mushroom which the ant desires. The necessary work is done by a special caste If gardener ants. These weed out obnoxious germs, etc., and prun¬ ing off the tips of the threads, pre¬ vent them from growing into the air and producing useless toadstools. As a result of this the threads swell Into innumerable little rounded white thickenings, each of which is about one-fiftieth of an inch across, It is these which are the mushrooms. These curious bodies constitute the sole food of the ant—or, at any rate, the chief food. EAGER TO WORK Health Regained by Right Food; The average healthy man or wom¬ an is usually eager to be busy at some useful task or employment. But let dyspepsia or indigestion get hold of one, and all endeavor be¬ comes a burden. u A year ago, after recovering from an operation,” writes a Mich, lady, a my stomach and nerves began to give me much trouble. M At times my appetite was vora¬ cious, but when indulged, indigestion followed. Other times I had 1 no- ap¬ petite whatever. The food It took did not nourish me and I grew weaker than ever. <« I lost Interest in everything and wanted to be alone. I had always had good nerves, but now the merest trifle would upset me and 1 bring on a violent headache. Walking across the room was an effort and prescribed exercise-was out of the question. “I had seen Grape-Nuts advertised, but did not believe what I read, at the time. At last when it seemed as if I were literally starving, I began to eat Grape-Nuts. “I had not been able to work for a year, but now after two months on Grape-Nuts I am eager to be at work again. My stomach gives me no trou¬ ble now, my nerves are steady as ever, and interest in life and ambi¬ tion have come back with the return to health. tt a There’s a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Eczema Lasted 7 Years—Face was Ail Raw — Skin Specialists Failed, But Cuticuru Effected Cure.. “When my little boy was six weeks old an eruption broke out om his face. 1 took him to a doctor, but his face kept on get¬ ting worse until it got so bad that no one could look at him. His whole face was one crust and must have been very painful. He scratched day and night until his face was raw. Then I took him to' all the best specialists in skin diseases, but they could not do much for him. The eczema got ■. j his arms and legs and we could not get a night’s sleep in months. I. got a set of Cuticura Remedies and he felt, relieved the first time I used them. I gave the Cuti¬ cura Remedies a good trial and gradually the eczema healed all up.
