thidr own racf. At that time there
wi re not many Wtiii physicians in
Kansas City ami our people had not
been properly informed as to the abil
ity and qualification of our Medical
fraternity. The fact that the N'ecro
physicians of today are as well
schooled as are those of the while
race did not occur to our people. The
Neuro press look the question in hand
and brought about, confidence and
shortly afterwards this field was
Bought, by a number of physicians,
the product of our race, whose merit
assorted itself in a manner that can
be Vouched for only hy IImiko whose
bodily afflictions required the att n
tioii of the profession. The result of
a methodical effort on the part of the
profession assisted by the press has
been very satisfactory. Cures of
many rases, remai Uable for (heir com
plications, have been effected by our
Nottro phjsicians and are '
to the rredit of the profession. Ins.

about $:i..'inu.iiOii. Electrical niachln-

knitting and embroidery were the
principal items. As this little country

these heavy materials by railroads,
the exportation of machinery speaks
well for Its industrial skill.

It Is believed that n piece of wood

Derivation of Fork.
The fork takes its name from the
Latin furca, a yoke looking like an
Inverted V. From this comes the
Italian forca and forchetta (little
fork). The latter word gives the
French their fourchette. while the
English go back to the former and re-,
tain the harder sounding "fork."
From D. M. Alorrell's "Forks" in St.
Nicholas.
Much Defends on Worker.

man who lays the granite, the man

worse of it; to lie with the hands Is
to add a stone to the fabric of the
world's disgrace. New York Times.
Honeymoons Cut Short.
Brevity and economy In honey
moons, the London Express says, are
becoming the fashion. Even wealthy

straight to their new home from the
church and stay there.
Chinese Stamps,
Nearly all Chinese stamps bear
dragons, hideous beyond description,
as their central figures. Other stamps
depict great jragodas and sacred tow
ers, being supposed to guard the
"luck" of a place and propitiate the
spirits and frighten away the evil
ones.
Brutal Suggestion.
To obviate the unseemliiEly sight of
women interrupters at cle-tlon meet
lugs being forcibly jectel, the pro
posal has been made that nt every

could be let loose If necessary. Lon
