RUBBER HISTORY.
Btaa Tliat Came With Colnmbas Saw
Haitian* Playing: Rail.
“The world was a long time learning
the uses and value of rubber,” says H.
E. Armstrong in Ainslee’s. “For two
centuries after the Spaniards saw the
gum in the hands of natives of the new
world It was little more than a curios¬
ity. Old Herrea, who went with Co¬
lumbus on his second voyage, made a
note of an elastic ball which was mold¬
ed from the gum of a tree. At their
games the nu'de Haitians made it
bound high in the air. The Aztecs were
familiar with the gum and called it ule,
and from them the Spaniards learned
to smear it on their coats to keep out
the wet. Tft'ey had crossed the seas
for gold and never dreamed of a time
when the sticky milk the uncouth In¬
dians drew from strange .trees would
be worth more than the treasure of the
hills.
“Jose, king of Portugal, in 1555, comes
down to us as the wearer of a pair of
boots sent out to Para to be covered
with a waterproof gum. Yet 800 years
were to elapse before a Connecticut
Yankee should make a pair of boots of
rubber which would not decompose.
Dr. Priestly, author of a work on ‘Per¬
spective.’ now forgotten, recorded that
caoutchouc (pronounced kachook! was
useful in small cubes for rubbing out
pencil marks; hence the name rubber.
The India linked with It refers to the
savages who gathered it in the Amazon
wilderness. Dr. Priestly’s cubes wire
half an Inch long and sold for 3 shil¬
lings, or 75 cents, apiece*—a Stiff price,
for the finest rubber today is $1 a
pound. Its price for ten years has
Tanged from 02 cents to $1.09. !
“The conversion of the gum to useful
purposes made but slow headway. The
first waterproof cloth in 1797 was the
work of aD Englishman It was tenta¬
tive, and, of course, it would not stand
heat. In 1823 Charles Mackintosh of
Glasgow discovered naphtha and, dis¬
solving rubber in it, produced a varnish
which, when spread on doth, made It
really impervious to water. Most of
the rubber used in the world still comes
from equatorial South America, and
the forests where the Indians gathered
ule are as dense today and almost as
little known to white men as in the
tirnn

Frequent Vaccination.
Although almost absolute immunity
Is secured for a period of six mouths
by vaccination, there is no certainty
that Its effects will continue beyond
that time. In the majority of cases it
does, but the interval for which this
additional benefit is enjoyed is variable.
Hence those who have studied the
matter most carefully recommend a
fresh operation if more than sis
months have elapsed since the last one,
If a person is liable to be subjected
t» peril, as in time of an epidemic.-

The Result of Htn Study.
“I suppose you have made a study of
human nature,” remarked the friend.
“1 attribute my success in life to that
fact,” answered Senator Sorghum.
“Were you ever tempted to give the
world the bei*eiit of your observations,
to put them into book form as a human
comedy or something of that sort?”
“My dear sir, it wouldn’t take a book
to do it. 1 have figured on the problem
of human nature until 1 know the an¬
swer. 1 should just say, ‘Human na-
ture loves money,’ and let it go at
that.”—Exchange.
Buttons.
Towne—For goodness’ sake, what are
you so cranky about?
Browne—Oh, I asked my wife to sew
a buttou on my coat.
Towne—And wouldn’t she do it?
Browne—Yes, but I’ve just discover¬
ed that the button she sewed on my
coat she cut from my vest.—Exchange.
What Wan Needed.
Henry Ward Beecher used to tell a
story about a priest iu the olden time
who was called to bless the field of a
poor farmer prior to the planting. He
came and after surveying the soil re¬
marked to the agriculturist, “Praying
won’t do here; what you want is ma¬
nure.”
The Best Remedy For Stomach
* And Bowel Troubles.
“I have been in the drug business
for twenty years and have sold most
all of the proprietary medicines of any
note.. Among the entire list I have
never found anything to equal Cham¬
berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoer
Kennedy for all stomach a d bowel
troubles,’' says O. VV. Wakefie d, of
Columbus, Gi. “This remedy cured
two severe cases of cholera morbus in
my family and I have recommended
and sold hundreds of bottles of it to
HIV customers to their entire satisfac-
lion. It affords a quick and sure sale cure by
in a pleasant form.” For

“For diplomatic kindness I will never
forget cue man.” remarked a wei]
known sportsman of Pittsburg. “He
certainly knew how to do the right
thing, and although it didn’t cost him
anything it helped a crowd of us out
of an embarrassing predicament for
the time, A party of young fellows,
myself in the number, were camping
years ago on the Beaver river, not far
from Rock point. None of us had much
money after getting our outfit and the
fanners got about all that was left
in exebauge for milk and butter. One
day three of us decided to go up to the
picnic grounds, and, just as luck would
have it, we met a crowd of girls from
our own towu. It was a happy meet¬
ing all around until some fool girl
suggested that we ail get our pictures
taken. To save our lives, the three of
us boys couldn’t have raised a total of
16 cents, but like true soldiers of for¬
tune vve decided to go ahead and trust
to luck to meet the obligation.
"The artist eyed us rather queerly
and our hearts began to fall. After a
whispered consultation 1 was delegated
to take him aside and negotiate with
him. 1 was authorized to stake every¬
thing we had, even down to our good
names. 1 stated the case briefly but
eloquently, and I must have' made a
good impression, for. when I had fin¬
ished. he said it would be all right.
The strangest part of it all to me was
when he handed me a dollar hill.
“ ‘I know how it is myself,’ be said.
‘You want to put up a bluff before
these girls. Just hand me the dollar
for the pictures when I'm through.’
“That was what pleased me, and 1
flashed that bill before the girls with
the air of a magnate. It was just a
month later that I learned from a
brother of one of the girls that they
had noticed our worried looks and had
forestalled 11 s by paying the pho¬
tographer the dollar I flourished so
proudly.”—Pittsburg News.
A Good Cough Rediclne.
Many thousands have been restored
to health and happiness by the use of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. If af¬
flicted with any throat or lung trouble
give it a trial for it is certain to prove
beneficial. Coughs that have resisted
all other treatment for years, have
yielded to this reiuedy and perfect
health been restored. Cases that seem¬
ed hopeless, that the climate of fa
mous health resorts failed to benefit,
have been permanently cured by its
use. For Sale.by Copeland Bros. Bre¬

A Cement Which Resists Acid.
Iu some branches of industry a ce¬
ment which is proof against the influ¬
ence of acids is absolutely essential,
and such a substance can ho prepared
by melting together one part of India
rubber with i wo parts of linseed oil.
This should be gradually Incorporated
with three parts of white bole so as to
form a plastic mass. This when heated
softens but very little. Though it does
not easily dry upon the surface, when
once set it is not affected at all by by-
drochloric acid and but very little by
nitric acid. Its drying and hardening
is materially promoted by mixing with
one-tifth of its weight of litharge or
minium.

Dickens a delicate compliment. Dick-

days was devoured by a grand passion
for the youthful queen, was invited
when at the climax of his fame to
dine at Windsor castle. He was after
dinner presented by the queen with a
copy of her book “Tour In the High-

scribed in her own hand this sentence:
“From the humblest to the most dis¬

him a peer of the realm she did not
bestow as great a compliment.

NOT BURIED AT SEA.
The Knnuinc Orpnch R'uitnuui unit
the Denit lisiR'IisSimaa.
A long expected French lugger was
seen making for the roadstead, and the
Lowestoft free trailers wore on the
alert, anxiously seeking an opportu-,
nity for communicating with her crow.
While they waited for a lapse of vijtf*
Unce cu the part of the excisemen, a
boat "*as lowered from the lugger and
i rowed toward the shore. A curious'
crowd of beach men and excisemen
assembled to meet her. ami as she
came in on the crest of a roller it was
observed that she contained a coffin.
The French boatmen had a mournful
tale to tell. On board the lugger had
been an Englishman suffering from an
Illness which soon proved fatal. In bis
last moments of consciousuess he had
begged the captain not to bury him at
sea, but to keep his body until a rest-
lug place could be found for it under
the green turf of a churchyard in l.is
native land. Sympathy with his sad
fate and the knowledge that the lugger
was not far from the English coast
had Induced the captain to consent,
and now he had sent the body ashore
for burial. In spite of his broken Eng¬
lish, the Frenchmen's spokesman told
his tale well.
Both excisemen and beach men—
especially the latter—loudly expressed
their admiration of the captain’s con¬
duct. A parson was summoned, and
in a little while a mournful processioni
made its way from the beach to the
Churchyard. Even the chief officer of
the excisemen was present and is said
to have shed tears.
That night the local “resurrection-
ists” were busy, and at dawn the
churchyard contained a desecrated
grave. A little way inland, however,
in the midst of the marshes, a smug-
glers’ store received the addition of a
coffin filled with silks and lace!—
