Louisiana Rice -Is Red.
The-rice planters -and . millers ol
Southwestern Louisiana are . having
come trouble with the crop this season.
For some unaccountable reason a con
siderable percentage o It Is red. This
Is not the first season that red grains
have appeared among the white, to be
6ure, but never before has the propor
tion been so large. An examination
by chemists has shown that the red
rice Is equally nutritious as white.
The value of the article as a matter of
food is not in the least injured by the
red grains. But the fact remains that
the colored grains Injure the sale of
the rice they appear in.
Humors of Examination. -
The humors ci examination papers
were further illustrated by Dr. Haig
. Brown, who, in speaking at the City of
London college upon the responsibili
ty which rested upon examiners in
weighing fragments of knowledge, said
that Lhe question, "What are the Chil
tern Hundreds?" once received the re
ply, "Small animals which abound in
great numbers In cheese." The In
quiry, "What is a cherub?" elicited, in
its turn, the answer, "Aa Immoral be
ing ' of uncertain shape." London

My Hair i

Corning Out
"About a year ago my hair
was coming out very fast. I
Bought a bottle of Aycr's Hair
Vigor to stop this. It not only
stopped the falling, But also
made my hair grow very rapidly,
until now it is 45 indies in
length and very thick." Mrs.
A. Boydston, Atchison, Kans.,
July 25, 1899.
EH,
It Feeds
the Hair
Have you ever thought why
your hair is falling out ? It is
Because you are starving your
hair. If this starvation continues
your hair will continue to fall.
There h one good hair food.
It is Ayer's Hair Vigor. It goes
right to the roots of the hair
and gives thetn just the food
that they need. The hair stops
falling. Becomes healthy, and
grows thick and long.
Aycr's Hair Vigor will do
another thing, also: it always
restores color to faded or gray
hair. Jl.OO bottle. ' All druggists.

A Bbf Cry.
A moderately intimate acquaintance
T?ith infants enables one to distin
guish, almost from birth, three cries
the healthy 3 ell, by which the child ex
ercises his lungs, the fretting of mod
erate discomfort, and the acute cry of
pain, the latter two including at first
hunger, thirst, and dissatisfaction.
By the end of three months the nurse
or mother should be able - to distin
guish the fretting of actual physical'
discomfort from that of restlessness,
and the sharp cry of pain from the
less acute announcement of thirst,
hunger, etc., while anger imparts a
characteristic quality to the cry. If
,th baby is comfortably dressed and
properly fed he will be less likely to be
(fretful and crying. Dr. A. L. Bene
dict In the January Woman's Home
Companion" .
. The Population of London. -. .
Last year's statistics show that the
population of London is 4,484,717. For
every 1,000 inhabitants there were
thirty births and 17.7 deaths. The
I number of Infants who died In their
first year was 158 for every 1,000
'births. During the period extending
from 1887 to 1896 the , mortality was
' lower than in Paris, Brussels, Amster
dam, Berlin and Copenhagen; but In
'1897 it increased to such an extent' that
it is now very little lower than that
of most European cities, Rome In
cluded. The Number of Oar Hatrs.
According te the Medical Record,
tair-haired people possess commonly
between 140,000 and 16P.000 hairs on
the scalp, the number being about the
eame for man and woman. Dark
haired people have on average 105,000,
While red-haired people are said to
jiave only 30,000 hairs. But the latter
apparently possess one great advan
tage in the fact that they retain their
hair better, seldom becoming bald,
ffheir hair is much coarser than that
of dark or fair-haired persons.
The Greatest Banquet of the World.
The greatest banquet in history took
place Aug. 18, 1889, when 40,000 mayors
of France sat at a table in the Palais
de l'lndustrie In Paris. There were
three relays of about 13,000 guests
each. To prepare the feast required
seventy-five chief cooks, 13,000 wait
ers, scullions, cellarmen and helpers;
80,000 plates, 52,000 glasses, knives,
forks and spoons in proportion; 40,000
rolls and fish, meat and fowl by the
ton. The banquet was part of the cen
tenary celebration of the events of
1789.
Great Distances Covered, by Birds.
The distances over which birds mi
grate vary between wide limits, . and
are often surprisingly great. The
bobolinks, which rear their young on
the shores of Lake Winnipeg In Can
ada, and go to Cuba and Porto Rico
to spend the winter, twice traverse a
distance exceeding 2,800 miles, or more
than a fifth of the circumference of
our earth, each year. The kingbird
lays Its eggs as far north as the fifty
seventh degree of latitude, and is
found in the winter in South America.
The biennial pilgrimages of the little
redstart exceed 3,000 miles, and the
tiny humming bird 2.000.
Deaf-Mutes.
Ninety-seven per cent of the off
springs of deaf fathers and. mothers
are deaf. The offspring of these deaf
persons generally possess the sense of
hearing, the average deafness being 8.6
per cent.' This fact is said to be in
accordance with two well-established
laws of heredity, viz., a physical an
omaly tends to be transmitted to off
spring and that the offspring of these
lenas to revert to tne normal type.
Centenary of Electricity.
"Electricity as we know it" is just
100 years old. In 1799 the Italian
scientist Volta gave definite form to
the method of producing the current,
and it Is from his name that we have
the term "voltmeter" to describe the
instrument which measures the force
of the current, and "volt" aa the unit
of that measurement.

New York Evening Sun. The
strange friendships that sometimes ex
ist between animals that are by nature
enemies have a new variation in the
deep attachment between a dog and a
chicken. The dog had belonged to a
certain family in city day's before the
suburbs were in its plan. Afterward
the attempt to raise chickens was Idle
because of his serious objections that
were made plain whenever a stray
chicken crossed his path, unless that
one happened to be the little bantam
hen. Finally all the others were dis
posed of, and the two odd companions
continued to spend their time together.
The little hen sits in perfect quiet
while the dog licks her feathers, or she
perches on his back while he walks.
At night he stays by preference in the
chicken house and the bantam perches
beside him.

the hock of the leg, the tenderloin
with kidney of the saddle (with some

Klectrlcltj and Foliage.
An extraordinary phenomenon has
been noticed with regard to chestnut
trees in a street in Brussels since the
Installation of the electric tram cars.
The foliage begins to turn brown and
drop early in August, to bud and even
blossom again in October. The trees
on the opposite side of the tramway
behave like ordinary trees, for they
lose their foliage in the late autumn
and do not put forth fresh blossoms
until spring. Botanists are inclined
to believe that this singular state of
things is due to the leakage of the
electrical current at places under
ground acting upon the roots- of the
trees, which are otherwise healthy.
Slaves in New Turk Sttte.
Immigration officials say that many
foreigners in this country are living in
a condition of abject slavery. At Avon,
N. Y., there Is a colony of 270 Ital
ians who are under the direct control
of one man, who hires them to farm
ers and fruit growers and takes most
of their earnings, while those who
perform the labor get little more than
enough to eat, and are housed in
buildings little better than cattle
rheds.
Flam Padding the Rase in London.
A plum pudding craze has broken
out in London. One firm sold 600,000
pounds of puddings three weeks before
Christmas. Surprises are now enclosed
in these, ranging from buttons, gold
sovereigns and half sovereigns to

pudding ordered had in it a diamond
and opal brooch worth ?50O, enclosed
in a silver box.

gave them a thorough trial, and after a few applications I noticed
the redness and inflammation disappear. Before I had used
one box there was not a sign of Eczema left. I can truthfully
assert that $2.00 worth of CUTICURA REMEDIES cured me.
There has been no sign of its return anywhere upon my body
since I wrote you I was cured, nearly four years ago. Hardly a

wishes to know how I got cured, if I had Eczema bad, and if
the cure has been permanent, etc., etc. I always take pleasure in
enlightening them the best I can. "
