FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20,1899.

0000 EVENING.

 

 

 

It’s fully time to say that the Co lum-
bia won as a. matter of c0urse.

One of the latest schemes for a trust
to feather its nest is trying to corner the
poultry market.

._..____.

Let the American people remember
Sir Richard Sutton and the Genesta.
‘He was a. true sportsman.

 

Dutchmen in South Africa large-
ly live by hunting, and they can shoot

’- well even when the game Is war. _

 

Naturally Britian now wants to make
out the Shamrock is an Irish boat.
Had it‘ won it would have been Eng-
lish.

Considering the
which corn comes, why shouldn’t the
big crop be regarded as an mark-Of

prosperity.

Nobody can tell the results of Bryan’s
speeches to Kentuckians, but the ques-
tion is quite pertinent where he is con-
cerned. Will they pay?

Each side in Ohio claims the other

is trying to throw dust in the voter’s
eyes. This may foreshadow success
will be with the party having the most
dust.

 

All theIold-fashioned weather signs

_ are said to indicate a mild winter, but

meanwhile there’s no harm inlhunting
up the one which has: “Shut the Door”
on it.

Gettinga line, as the- sluggers say,
on the Boers "they should do well. The
name Boer is practically the same as
BoWery, and the Bowery turns out some

tough fighters.

The time may come when people of
this country will‘get so disgusted with
the use of money in politics a states-
man’s barrel may serve to kill him as it
did Regulus of old Rome.

Detectives are alike the country over.
Although that recent hold-up near
Chicago took place on the railroad that
circumstance even did not enable the
flycops to track the thieves.

Those who don"t want other terri-

tory argue the President is all right
when he speaks of this country’s homo-.
geneous territory expanding, but when
he comes to the Pacific Ocean he puts
his foot in it.

If those reports of Hanna’s rheuma-
tism were promulgated with a View of
making the Ohio workers more deli-
ate in their treatment of his leg, from
the accounts of the money being spent
they, didn’t do any good.

Breaks the Record in Omelets.

News has come from Kef, Tunis, oi
the manufacture of the largest omelet
on record. A company of the Third Af-
rican battalion stationed there, at the
request of the neighboring farmers, set
out on an expedition to annihilate the
swarms of sparrows which were devas-
tating the crops, says the New York
Tfibune. The soldiers brought back as
"spoils of war 5,000 eggs, and the regi-
mental cook contrived, with the help of
other ingredients, to make an omelet
nearly seven feet in circumference.

new fifiin our.

Fill a bottle or co‘mmon glass with
your water and let it stand twenty-four
hours: a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys:
if it stains your linen it is evidence of
kidney trouble; too frequent, desire to
pass it or pain in the back is also con-
vincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmcr's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in curing rheuma-
tism, pain in the back, kidneys. liver.
bladder and every part of the urinary
passages. It corrects inability to hold
water and scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un-
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to go often during the day, and get up
many times during the night. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-
Root is soon realized. It stands the high-
est for its wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. If you need a medi-
cine you should have the best. At drug-
eists fifty cents or one dollar.

You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells more about it, ,both sent
absolutely free by mail, if you send your

ton, N. Y. When writing be sure and

RE "bib GREAT THINGS.
And Then Jimmy Told His Father

All About His Exciting
Adventures.

 

“What kind of a time are you having
this summer, Jimmy ‘2”

“Oh, out- of sight! The family all
away. Father was the last to go. He
.went north on business and left me to
take care of the house. Oh, yes, I’m
strong on that, you know. Haven’t
been there since he left. That makes
me think 'I’d better go around to-night
—-he’s due to-day.”

James was right. His father had re-
turned and was sitting on the porch
smoking a cigar when his son arrived,
says ,the Detroit Free Press.

“Well, how have you been getting
along for the last week?” inquired the
father.

“Oh, very wall, considering,” said
James, assuming the confident air of
the man who has done his duty. “A few
accidents about the house, but I fixed
them all right.”

“Yes?”

“Yes—had the burglars one night.
Lucky thing I was here—-they might
have stolen half the house. And the
gas pipe sprung a» leak, too. But I dis-
covered that in time. And the rats!
Why, we’d have been overrun with ’em
if I hadn’t been here to clean them out! ”

“Hm! that’s strange,” said his father.
"I haven’t heard any burglars, nor
smelled any gas, nor heard any rats,
and I’ve been here all the week. You
know, I didn’t take that business trip
after all.”

ALUMINUM IN LITEOSRAPHY.

 

Some Advantages of the Metal
Plate Over the Cumbersome
Stone.

 

A steady demand for aluminum is
springing up in various kinds of print-
ing processes, as well as in lithography.
When its surface is properly prepared
it is capable of replacing the ordinary
lithographic stone. The advantage of
having, instead of cumbrous and heavy
stones, which can be printed only on
special slow-running “litho” machines,
thin sheets of metal, which can be bent
into a circular form and printed on ro-
tary presses, is evident. In Germany
five-pound sheets of aluminum are be-
ing used as a substitute for the usual
Solenhofen limestone slabs, weighing
50 to 100 pounds. After being polished
with ground pumice, the aluminum
sheets are dried and washed with a
patent acid solution, and after a second
drying are ready for the imprint. The
sheets cost only one-third of the stone;
to correct an error-the ink has simply
to be washed out with acid; there is no
liability to fracture under heavy pres-
sure; and both space in storage and
labor in handling are saved. The qual-
ity 0 work done on the metal plates is
excellent, and many establishments in
this country are now using aluminum
plates and rotary presses.

COST OF 'LIVII‘T G.
A Comparison of the Various Capitals

of Europe Shows Vienna to Re
the Cheapest.

 

An investigation into the compara-
tive cost of living at the various Euro—
pean capitals resulted in the following
facts: At Vienna the prices of most
articles of food are lowest; at Madrid
they are clearer than in any other cap—
ital, and such things as bread, meat,
sugar and coal,are very expensive in-
deed. At St. Petersburg also the price
of bread is still considered a luxury
above the means of the working classes.
"Next to Vienna Brussels is an inexpen-
sive city; Paris is a little higher in the
scale, while London is still more e2;-
pensivc. An American spends on an
average $50 a year for food, a French—
man $48, a German $45, a Spaniard

$33, an Italian $24 and a Russian
$40. Oi meat the American eats

lc-U pounds a year, the Frenchman
at pounds, the German 64 pounds,
the Italian 28 pounds and the
tussian 51 pounds. Of bread the Amer-
ican consumes 380 pounds, the French-
man 540 pounds, the German 500
pounds, the Spaniard 480 pounds, the
Italian 400 pounds and the Russian 0.35
pounds. Outside of Europe, in times of
peace, Manila is cheaper to live in than
any other city in the world.
