There is great diversity in the meth ods of deeping among people of differ ent nations. I ndeed, the things neces sary to procure sleep for one individual appear frequently to be just the things that would keep another awake all (night. The European or American in order to sleep well ordinarily requires a soft pillow under his head, but the Japa nese, stretching himself on a rush mat on the floor, puts a hard square block of wood under his head and does not sleep well if he does not have it. The Chinese makes a great to do in the matter of his bed, which is very low, indeed scarcely {rising from the* floor, but is often carved exquisitely of wood, and it never occurs to him to make it any softer than rush mau will render it. t While the people of the northern countries cannot sleep unless they have plenty of room in which to stretch his legs, the inhabitants of the tropics of ten curl themselves up like monkeys at the lower angle of a suspended ham mock and sleep soundly that way. The robust American will cover him self with a pair of blankets and throw his window open to the air even in the dead of winter, and he will not some times complain if there is a little drift • of snow across the sill in the morning. The Russian, on the contrary, likes no sleeping place so well as the top of the big soapstone stove in his domicile. , Crawling out of this blistering bed in the morning, he likes to take a plunge . in a cold stream, even if he has to break , through ice to do so. While the American clings to his j feather pillow, he has long since dis- . carded his old fashioned feather bed in , favor of the hair or straw or felt mat- , tress. The feather bed has been rele gated to the country, and many people | that slept on it in their childhood , found it unendurable in their later , years. < The Germans not only sleep on a , feather bed, but underneath one as well. The feather covering used in Germany, however, is not so large or thick as the one used as a mattress, and the foreigner that undertakes to : sleep beneath it often finds his feet suffering from cold while his shoulders are suffering from heat.—Boston Post. 9 « m » • ] BEST HEN YET FOUND. LAYS EGGS BY WOLEBALE —SO MANY ' OF THEM THAT HEB OWNER ' THINKS HER BEWITCHED. '' 1 Believing her pet hen bewitched, be- , cause it has been laying eggs not only at a rate far beyond the ordinary caps- , bilities of a normal hen, but on such a t wholesale scale that it is a whole poul- j try farm in itself, Mrs. Geo. W. Apple- t gate, wife of a mason living on Beach street Red Bank, N. J., has become so , disturbed and frightened that she is on , the verge of nervous prostration, and ] she has been placed under medical care. , As a matter of fact, the incomprehen- j Bible conduct of the hen and the se- | crecy with which she guards her ac- j tions are attracting widespread com- , ment. She is a Plymouth Rock, and , Mrs. Applegate bought her from a . neighbor six months ago, more for company than as an egg producer. The , hen was then, curiously enough, the only fowl on the place. Despite this . fact, however, she began to lay on De- , csmber 3, and up to Feb. 12 the total had reached 121 eggs, some of which arrived in batches of three or four a , day. She laid 12 eggs last Thursday a week age and then Mrs. Applegate be- , gan to grow nervous. The hen took , Friday off, but on Saturday two eggs appeared in the nest. She observed Sunday by resting, but on Monday she , contributed two more. On Wednesday the crop amounted to 9, and on last . Thursday all records were broken, for on that day she laid 19 eggs. These , were too many for Mrs. Applegate'* nerves and she collapsed. She described the circumstance and asked the physician what he thought about it, but he shook his head, and said he was willing to believe almost anything of some hens. In the mean time the hen, which is kept in a coop in the kitchen, looked on at the pro ceedings with evident curiosity and with an expression which Mrs. Apple gate declares bore a strong resemblance to a grin. The eggs of this astoaishing hen are s.nailer than ordinary eggs, but all are p3rfectly formed and have shells. Some Big Ones. Here are some big ones going tha rounds of the rural press: The Louisiana Press-Journal told of a potato which resembled a snake. Middletown Chips said it had been "laying" for some such story to beat it with the tale of three which had been brought to its office, one resembling an owl, another a glove and the third a bust. Then the Hale Huster told this; Last fall while a Carrol county man was digging his potatoes he dug out of one hill an enormous spud in the shape of a hen and almost as large. In the same nest were a lot of potatoes resem bling eggs, and several resembling young chickens, some of which were so life-like that you could tell the roostors fom the pullets. The fellow who can beat this potato "laying" tale will have to put "lay" in the present tense and that's all there is to it. P. S.—We can prove this by Bert Donovan of this city. He bought the mother potato for a hen and had it on the scales before he knew the difference. Is it not true that the man dug his patatoes very late, and that he was only able to locate the hill by following up the crowing of the roosters and the cackling of the pullets?— Western Inde pendent FLOWER CUPS FOR ICES. B CHARMING TABLE DECORATIONS FOR BRIDGE AND PUZZLE PARTIES. '" With bridge and puzzle parties in full '" swing the hostess finds herself again '" confronted with the problem of offer " ing attractive favors and decorations s for her luncheon, dinner or tea guests. ' Fancy paper ornaments ate always a satisfactory investment for the reason r that they are effective inexpensive and 1 generally novel in shape or idea. •" American Beauty rose cups are truly ' charming. One style is made with the i large curling petals resting on the ta t ble, and in the heart of each gloriously tinted flower is placed a small ice cup 1 made of finely plaited paper held to ''_ gether at the rim by a hand of "Beau -5 ty " crape paper twisted into a cord and : f tied at one side. The petals of the rose > curl up around the cup so that very lit- • ' tie of it shows. It is not essential to ' have leaves and stems with this kind 1 of cup. Another style is more true to 3 nature, however, and it represents a • half blown La France rose standing ■ three or four inches above the table. I The flower is mounted on a green stem - which is twisted spirally so that the blossom sways as though touched by - summer zephyrs. Branching from the \ thick thorn decorated stem are realistic ' ' looking rose leaves fashioned of green ' ' crape paper; then the base of the stem • • is curled around a green paper covered disk. > For a more elaborate ornament one ' might have a cluster of cups instead of ' serving individual ones. A spray of blossoms with leaves looked charming ' 1 in the center of a luncheon table whose decorations were pink. The flowers ' were La France roses, six large beauties nestling in foliage. Each rose heart ' was an ice cup, and the spray was laid J on a mirror which was surrounded by s more rose foliage. ' Golden hearted flowers holding small receptacles for orange ice or an ice cream tinted to match the flower petals make a novel and pleasing decoration. ( These come in a variety of colors and . shades. I •--♦♦-»"• c SOUVENIR FANATICS. « c t NOTHING IS SAFE FROM THOSE AFFLIC r TED WITH THE CRAZE. In these enlightened days anything 1 from the limb of a tree to a table nap- i kin is liable to be carried away as a 1 souvenir. L A western girl with a well defined t case of the souvenir habit, sojourning s in New York, was dining at a fashion- s able cafe and, being prepossessed in s favor of the cunning pewter cream 1 pots with which the tables were sup plied, calmly carried one away in her n muff. Can you imagine her self valua- c tion when upon examining her prize £ later on she discovered carved across r the bottom, "Stolen from M.'s?" f A Pittsburg bachelor, wandering into c a restaurant, came upon a friend just t seating himself with two ladies. The c bachelor was invited to join the party, t did so, and at the end of the luncheon c insisted upon paying the costs. The bill being wrong, he went to the cash- \ ier's desk to personally adjust the dis- i crepancy, where he was informed that t the extra charges were for spoons which ( ' the ladies had put in their hand bags, c And that was the first time he had ever met them! ] Upon the occasion of the presenta- t ' tion of a handsome silver service by one i of the United States to a battleship I which was being christened in her honor an elaborate banquet was served aboard ship, at which the service was ' used. Society came en masse from the t town near which they were anchored, and after the function was over there were not enough forks and spoons with which to lay the tables. And yet these * 1 souveuir fanatics would draw their ) moral skirts aside for fear of contami- ■ nation with a real thief.—Bertha Rey- ' nolds Mac Donald in Bohemian Mag- ' 1 zinc.

' . _»_ . s TESTED AND PROVEN j 1 THERE IS A HEAP OF SOLACE IN BEING ' ABLE TO DEPEND UPON A WELL- I ' EARNED REPUTATION. For months Staunton readers have ' i seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read ' i about the good work they have done in • this locality Not another remedy ever i produced such convincing . proof of merit. '■ T. E. Dulaney, musician, living on ' " Jefferson St., Lexington, Va., says: "I ' 3 known Doan's Kidney Pill to be a splendid kidney remedy from personal f experience. 1 had a severe attack of I . kidney trouble, being seized with sharp ' i pains through my back and loins and ' t for two days being unable to leave my : i bed or even turn over in it. When I ' i did get up the pains were so intense i that I was forced to walk in a stooped : ; position, at the same time suffering i terribly. My kidneys seemed to be ; f eonjested and felt like two hard lumps c in my back. The secretions from these . c organs were also terribly disordered - and very scanty. At last I decided to r. try Doan's Kidney Pills, and procured 0 a box. After using the contents a great s improvement was noticeable in my i condition, and I continued using them c until I was improved in every way. I 1 am still taking Doan's Kidney Pills i and cannot say too much in their s praise." o Plenty more proof like this from c Staunton people. Call at B. F.

Far up in the mountains of Ceylon there is a spider that spins a web like bright yellowish silk, the central net of which is five feet in diameter, while the supporting lines, or guys, as they are called, measure sometimes ten or twelve feet, and, riding quickly in the early morning, you may dash right into it, the stout threads twining round your face like a lace veil, while, as the crea ture that has woven it takes up his po sition in the middle, he generally catches you right in the nose, and, though he seldom bites or stings, the contact of his large body and long legs is anything but pleasant. If you for get yourself and try to catch him, bite he will, and, though not venomous, his jaws aft as powerful as a bird's beak, and you are not likely to fcrget the en counter. The bodies of these spiders are very handsomely decorated, being bright gold or scarlet underneath, while the upper part is covered with the most delicate slate colored fur. So strong are the webs that birds the size of larks are frequently caught therein, and even the small but powerful scaly lizard falls a victim. A writer says that he has often sat and watched the yellow monster—measuring. when waiting-for his prey with his legs stretched out, fully six inches—striding across the middle of the net and noted the rapid manner in which he winds his stout threads round the unfortu nate captive. He usually throwsthe coils about the head until the wretched victim is first blinded and then choked. In many unfrequented dark nooks of the jungle you come across most perfect skeletons of small birds caught in these terrible snares. Don't Be Misled. The retail druggists of this county, as a class, are noted for their high stand ard of intelligence and honorable deal ing, but it is a well known fact that oc casionally you will find one who will try to sell you something else when you call for a remedy of established reputa tion. He forgets that your health is more important than his pocketbook. For example, when you ask for Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great Kid ney, Liver and Bladder Remedy, don't let any druggist, drug clerk or store keeper persuade you into buying some thing else in its place. Every time he succeeds in selling you a worthless sub stitute he makes more profit, but you are humbugged at the expenses of your health. For many years we have watched with much interest the remarkable re cord maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. From the very begin ning, the proprietors had so much con fidence in it that they invited every one to send for a free sample bottle so that people could judge of its great curative value in even the most dis tressing cases of kidney, liver and blad der troubles. On another page of this paper you will find a few of the letters, prompted by feelings of heartfelt gratitude, that are constantly coming to Dr. Kilmer & Company. No one can doubt such sin cere and honest testimony. Swamp-Root is prepared only by Dr. Kilmer & Co. Laboratories, Bingham ton, N. V.—Don't experiment—lf you need a medicine you should have the best. THE COBRA STONE. A CEYLON STORY ABOUT THESKI'TILI AND ITS SHINING LURE. Every one knows that Ceylon is fa mous for the amount of queer and rare precious stones found in the sands of its dried up river beds. Among these is one called "chlorophane," a rare va riety of fluor spar, which shines at night with phosphorescent light. There has long been a tradition among the natives that a certain species of cobra makes use of this stone to attract in sects} in the darkness. Indeed, the name given it is "maja-kaller," or co bra stone. A scientist resolved to test this wonderful story during a stay in the island, so offered any cooly 5 ru pees to point out a stone |carrying co bra. In about a week an old Tamil came in and offered to show him one. He followed this guide, and, sure enough, there, under an immense tama rind tree, he saw a little point of steady greenish light and could faintly dis tinguish behind a cobra coiled and slowly waving its head from side to side. It would have been desperately dangerous to approach the reptile, and the cooly begged him not to do so, say ing that next night he would himself get the stone. He did so, and in rather clever fashion. Before dark he climb ed into the tree,carrying a large bag of ashes. After nightfall the cobra turn ed up, as usual, and deposited its treas ure, which it carried in its mouth, be fore it. Thereupon the cooly emptied his bag of ashes over the shining object, and the frightened reptile after a wild but fruitless search crept back into the jungle. The cooly descended, searched the ashes, found the stonemnd received his promised reward.—London Tele graph. The Lund Glow of Doom was seen in the red face, hands and body of the little son of H. M.

"But," writes his mother, -'seven bottles of Electric Bitters completely cured him." For eruptions, eczema, salt rheum, sores and all blood disor ders and rheumatism, Electric Bitters is supreme.
