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 When you want a modern, up-to date physic try Chamberlain’s Stom ach and Liver Tablets.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!— “Highways and Byways in East An- g!ia,” tY. A. Dutt.
