Artlstio Workmanship in Glass. One of the greatest artistic marvels of the world is to be seen in the muse­ um at Harvard university. This curi­ osity consists of hundreds of speci­ mens of flowers and plants formed of glass, but with such exquisite fidelity to nature that they appear to be real, every tint and marking, every tiniest detail, being faithfully reproduced. ' ^ They are made by a secret process, *the artists being a father and son in 5 Germany, who, it is said, may let their ijn V 8ecre* die with them| As an instance of the wonderful workmanship it may be mentioned that the very hairs which appear on the stems on certain plants are reproduced on the glass r imitations. IV the housewife who has not yet become acquainted with the new things ef everyday use in the market and who is reasonably satisfied with the old, we would suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because it Is guaranteed by the manufacturers to be superior to any other brand, but because each 10c package con­ tains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain but 12 ozs.

Heredity is a tyrannical creditor. Nevertheless if it has given you any­ thing that stands in the way of your success--if you are naturally talka­ tive, naturally prodigal, naturally dull --yen may, by sheer force of charac­ ter and strength of will, outgrow heredity's endowments. There is a subtle difference between, the suppression of truth and the open falsehood, but it isn't visible to the naked eye. Ton can do your dyeing In half an hoar with PUTNAM FADELESS DYES.

Justice Leo Jacobs of Wallington, N. J., was vigorously rebuked by Judge Zabrlskle at Hacnensack this morn­ ing. Some time ego Michel Frisco of Wallington was arraigned before the justice by Chief Marshal Chrysteline on the charge of selling liquor with­ out a license. Frisco was held under bail for a trial, and the evidence, a bottle of whisky and a bottle ct brandy, was turned over to the Jus­ tice. With a number of other cases of the same sort the Frisco case came up to-day. When the court asked Chrystellne on wnat he based the com­ plaint, Chrysteune said that he had turned the evidence over" to Justice Jacobs. The latter was not In court and an officer was hastily sent for him. when Judge Zabrlskle asked the justice for the evidence Jacobs at first replied that he did not know what had be­ come of It. Later he admitted that he had suf­ fered from colic the same night and had taken the whisky and brandy.-- New York Tribune. A Dark Secret. i ANCIENT CARVING OF WOOD. 8tatuette That Was Made Three Thou­ sand Years Ago. A statuette of sycamore, the most ancient specimen of wood carving known to exist, is in the museum of Glzeh, at Cairo. It dates from B. C. 3900, so is very nearly 6,000 years old, and still the wood is as sound and good as if of recent date. It was found at Sakkarao, and it is supposed to represent one of the overseers of the workmen engaged in building the pyramids which abound in the imme­ diate neighborhood and which are the oldest In Egypt. The statuette is 'known as the "Sheik-el-Beled," or "sheik of the village," a name given to it by the Arabs who found it be­ cause its features represented very closely those of the man who was then their own sheik. The statuette is distinctly a portrait, showing a well-fed, closely shaven man of 50 or thereabouts, altogether nude save for a cloth bound by a leather girdle about his loins and reaching down to his knees. The exact height of the stat­ uette Is S feet 8V& inches. Rat Tower on Rhine.

The commission was sent to Ceylon by the late sol­ dier's friends in Scotland and some of them had known him intimately since boyhood. SHE REMOVED THE HAT. How's This ?

Many Proverbs Credited to the Good' Book Wii'di Are Not In It. There are scores of wise saws, all containing more or less of truth, which are almost universally supposed to be in (.he Bible which cannot be found in its pages. One of the chief of these sentences is: "He tempers the wind to the short lamb." Vou would search the Bible pretty thoroughly before yon would find that sentence in it. Where you would find it would be In Sterne's "Sentimental Journey." Sterne gets a good deal of praise for the origination ot this sentence, but it was originated, as a matter of fact, before he wax born. In a col­ lection of French proverbe published in 1594 we find, "Dieu mesure le vent a la brebis tondue." That convicts Steine of plagiarism. "In the midst of life we are in death'"--everybody thinks 1 that is in the Bible. It isn't, though; it is the burial service. "That he who runs may read." This is mother sentence supposed, wrong­ ly, to be Biblical. It is not Biblical, though the Bible hns something very like it--namely, "That he may run that readeth." "Prone to sin. as the sparks fly up­ ward." The Bible nowhere contains those words. "A nation shall be born In a day." The nearest thing to that In the good book :s( "Shall a nation he born at once?" SPOILED CHILDREN Ox Furnished Much Beef. "Jerry," the big ox which beea exhibited at so many New England fairs during past years, was killed last week. He was 18 years old, and as he was losing weight it was thought best to send him to the slaughter house. The ox weighed 4,365 pounds one time and was one of the heaviest, If not the heaviest, oxen in the country. Dress Made of Dog's Fur. Mrs. Harry Willoughby of St JTohnsbury, Vt, has a unique piece off cloth, from which she is soon to make a dress.

It was colored brown and makes a handsome piece of cloth. Animals Need Company. Oxen and sheep fatten better la aasa»- » mm Oas wfc«i kent aft**. Ususlly Make 8lckly Men and Women The "spoiled child" usually makes a weak, sickly man or woman be­ cause such a youngster has its own way about diet and eats and drinks things that are unfitted for any stom­ ach and sickness results. "I was always a delicate, spoiled child and my parents used to let me drink coffee because I would cry for it," says a Georgia young woman. "When I entered school my nervous­ ness increased and** my parents' thought it was due to my going to school, so they took me out again. But I did not get any better and my headaches got worse and weakened me so that 1 was unfit for any duty. Sometimes I would go a whole day witcout any other nourishment than a cup of coffee. spring I had a bad attack ot the Grippe and when I recovered I found that coffee nauseated me a I could not drink it and even a few swallows would cause a terrible burn­ ing in my stomach. It was at this "time that a friend who bad been much benefited by the use of Postum sug­ gested that I try this food drink. I found it simply dallcious and have used it ever since and the results speak for themselves. I have gained 12 pounds and my nerves are as steady as any one's. "I consider myself well and strong and I make it a point now to take a cup of Postum with a cracker or two as soon as I come home from school in the afternoon. Postum with crack­ ers or a biscuit makes my luncheon. It certainly saved my life for 1 know coffee would have killed me in tune had i continued drinking it. "I have a young girl friend, a sten­ ographer, who declares nothing strengthens and refreshes her like Postum and she has a little oil stove In her office and makes a cup of Pos­ tum at noontime. I have recommend* ed this wonderful beverage to many of my friends who know what It has done for me." Name given by Pos­ tum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

As Mrs. Brady refused to re­ move the obstructive hat. Miss Mc­ Dermott borrowed a gentleman's walking stick and tilted it out of her line of vision. But Mrs. Brady was not prepared to wear her hat at a rakish angle all the evening and so she put it straight again. Every time she did to Miss McDejpott repeated the performance with the walking stick. The magistrates decided that' Miss McDermott has committed "a series of minor but aggravating as­ saults" and fined her 10 shillings and costs. The money was promptly sub­ scribed by the citizens as a protest against large hats in theaters. Irishman's Grim Jest. In the middle of the eighteenth cen­ tury Lord March and an Irish tmble- man met to fight a duel. While the seconds were loading the pistols a man appeared, to the amazement of Lord March and his second, carrying a coffin draped in black, which he de­ posited at the feet of Lord March. Upon looking down he read inscribed on the coffin plate: "James Douglas, earl of March; born Nov. 5, 1725; died June 10, 1760." Lord March turned pale. "What is the meaning of this infernally bad Jest?" he in­ quired "Why, my dear fellow," re­ plied his opponent, "you are of course aware that I never miss my man, and as I find myself in excellent trim for sport to-day I have not a shadow of doubt upon my mind that you will want this oaken cloak before five minutes are over." This was too much for the nerves of Lord March. He refused to fight, apologizing In­ stead. Inappropriate. £ Bear--It's funny that they call you a fir tree.

The occasion was the interment of a Bermondsey dog fancier. Among the mourners in the procession to the graveside were three splendid New­ foundland dogs wearing coats of crepe with collars to match. On the top of the coffin were placed two stuffed toy terriers. These were pets of the de­ ceased fancier, who had expressed the wish that they should follow him to his last resting place in the manner described. Flies Came Down Chimney.

Dentists Use Much Gold. If there is a scarcity of gold during the twenty-first and twenty-second cen­ turies dentists, according to a German statistician, will probably be more to blame than any one else. He asserts that they use every year In filling teeth and other worn about eight hundred kilogrammes of gold, the value of which is $500,000, and that at this rate the graveyards of the various countries will contain in three hundred years from now 1150,000,000 worth of gold.

Corey Makes a Correction. Workmen at Homestead, Pa., have a story to the effect that Mr. Corey, the new president of the steel trust, be­ gan his industrial career pushing a wheelbarrow in one of Carnegie's steel works; that he did as much work as any two of the other men, thereby laying a foundation for the advance­ ment which culminated in his present eminence, and that he was paid |1 a day for this unusual exertion. Mr. Corey declares that this story is not strictly correct. "I "was only 16 years old then," he says, "and probably did less work than an other employe simi­ larly engaged. It is also a mistake that I started in at $1 a day. It was not as much as that" Level, Straight and Comfortable.
