The Puzzle of Peat.
Peat Is a puzzle. It can be dug on
the surface, yet we sink hundreds of
fathoms into the earth in order to pro¬
cure coal Instead of It. Analysis shows
it to have all the constituents of coal,
yet used Ip the same way it yields en¬
tirely different results. It is among the
oldest of all sources of artificial heat,
yet in this twentieth century no one
really knows how to burn It to sub¬
stantial advantage. Much Ingenuity
and Immense sums of money have been
expended In endeavors to utilize It, yet
to this day a solution of the problem
which would be capable of general ap¬
plication remains among the golden
opportunities which are still open to
the clever lnveator.—Pearson’s Week¬
ly.
It Grew.
A certain gentleman who was noted
as an angler had a poor memory as
to the weight of the fish he had taken.
On one occasion a friend who was
trying to entrap him asked in a casual
manner:
“I say, S„ what was the weight of
that big fish you caught the other
day?”
The angler turned to his servant and
said, “Jenkins, what did I say yester¬
day that fish weighed?"
“What time yesterday, sir—in the
morning, at dinner or after supper?”
was the reply.
Killing Time.
A friend met Count Truffle of Paris
in the Hue de la Paix.
“Where are you going, count?” he
said.
“Down here to the Rue Castiglione,”
was the reply, “to get my hair cut.”
“Why, your hair is short enough,”
the friend exclaimed. >
“Certainly,” the count admitted, “but
a fellow can’t always be strolling
about with nothing to do,”
A Stronger Simile.
They spoke of patience on a monu¬
ment.
But the householder, snorting with
irritiftion, turned away.
“Patience on a monument? Bah!” he
sneered. “Did you ever see a plumber
sit down beside a Job, light his pipe
and wait fer his apprentice to go back
to the shop for a forgotten tool?”—

Cold water closes the pores of the
skin and makes it firm. A little vine¬
gar or cologne added to the water also
assists in the hardening.
Woman the Tougher 8ex.
Although men, as they run, are per¬
haps muscularly stronger than women,
their inability to withstand the ele
ments and their reliance upon clothes
place them considerably below the so
called weaker sex in the matter of un¬
clothed toughness. Women wear clothes
for ornament. Men use them as pro¬
tective covering. A group of men ma¬
rooned clotheless on an island in the
temperate zone might be expected to
die off in a month from drafts and
colds and rheumatism. The health of
women similarly placed would suffer
little from the enforced exposure. The
fact appears to be, therefore, that in
everything but muscle—in vitality, rug¬
gedness, character, disposition, brain
power, etc.—woman is the tougher, not
the weaker, sex.—Kansas City Journal.
A Xantippe Outwitted.
An Englishman of Lymington had
the misfortune to live In a continuous
quarrel with his wife, who was a mod¬
em Xantippe and threatened in case
she survived him to dance over his
grave, it was her lot to outlive him,
t^it it was not so easy to carry out
her threat The husband had the pre¬
caution to make an injunction in his
wiil requiring his body to be buried in
the sea near his residence and without
ceremony. The injunction was com
ppli“d with.

How Is Your Digestion?
Mrs. Mary Dowling, of No. 228 8th
avenue, San Francisco, recommends
a remedy for stomach trouble.' She
says: “Gratitude for the wonderful
effect of Eleetric Bittars^in a case of
acute indigestion prompts this testi¬
monial. I am fully convinced that
for stomach and liver troubles Elec¬
tric Bitters is the best remedy on the
market today.” This great tonic and
alterative medicine invigorates the
system, purifies the blood and is es¬
pecially helpful in all forms of fe¬
male weakness. 50c at Hill & King’s
