“1 can’t so how the atrr ct peddlers
make n living,” declared one of n
group of suburbanites on a North
river ferryboat the other evening, ac
cording to the New i'ork Times.
“I will supply the cigars if each of
u i has not >x ;.ght something from a
street peddler today," said tin man
addressed. "I bought a two-foot rule
from one of them.”
‘‘And I bought shoestrings," con
fessed the first speaker.
"So did I," said a third.
“And I bought some bulbs,” raid
another,
“Matches here,” remarked a fifth.
“A pocket comb for me,” said the
man with a big mustache.
“A card of buttons,” spoke up a fam
ily man.
“Clack, clack," came the sound of a
noisy contrivance as another com
muter exhibited his purchase.
“Seven handkerchiefs for a fjuar
ler," remarked still another, tapping a
package that bulged out of bis over
coat pocket.
“I guess the cigars are on me," said
the first speaker, “the peddlers seem
to have plenty of customers.”
CHANGES HER COLOR,
young Bohemian Girl Whose Skin
Varies with Her Emotions.
Physiological Senaallon Which la Oc
cupying the A Kent lon of the
l-nrla Sclentlala—ltcsnlt of
liuallutf Accident.
Miss Marga Cerbus, a young lioh
mi.-.n girl, whose skin possesses the re
markable property of changing color
in sympathy with Iter varying sensa
tions, is the physiological sensation of
tiie day for Parisian scientists.
Her skin does not reflect the colors
in her vicinity, but a complete change
is produced by the different emotion*
she feels.
Anger makes it much darker than
tliat of a negress; joy turns it to pretty
pink, and anxiety cause* tier to as
sume a pale greenish tint; fear turns
half her body a beautiful violet com
plex.' n. The most extraordinary fea
ture of the case i* that the colors rare
ly mingle, but the greater part of the
time changes take place without any
apparent cause.
Her natural color is a warm, dark
shade. Sometimes the face turns sud
denly to a deadly white, while the
rest of the body remains unchanged.
At oilier times an arm, the neck, the
band or foot turns a different shade,
according to the sensation expressed.
The only time the skin remains with
out variation is when she is asleep.
These curious variations in skin hate
only made their appearance since she
met with a boating accident in which
she was nearly drowned.
ROMANCE IN MARRIAGE.
Tha Wedding of Americans In Lon
don la the Outcome of CTilid
lioud Love Affair.
Dr. and .Mrs. John West Benton, re
cently married at London, will sail for
New York soon to make their home at
Ogdens burg, .V Y., where both were
“brought up,” (he bride being Harriet
Egert. It is a boy and girl love affair,
which, after many obstacles bail been
removed, resulted in a happy union.
For liveyears the Egert s lived chiefly
in Europe, except when Mrs. llansiek
(r, the wife of Col. Millard iiaasieker,
now the European representative of
the United States Steel corporation,
had the girls on a visit out west, and
the lovers did uot. geta glimpse of each
oilier all these years, nor did a single
letter pass between tlig-m.
Harriet Egert traveled far and wide
Being very handsome, she had several
marriage proposals, but all were re
fused. Baron de (iraffenried was in
fatuated with her and did all in hi*
pow er to win her.
Air. Benton arrived in London not
long ago, and Harriet announced her
intention of marrying her old sweet
heart. Col. Ilansieker gave the bride
away. After the wedding the couple
went to Strawberry Hill, where the
bride’s mother held a reception.
INCUBATOR FOR CROWS.

Parmer Hillings, of Hrookdale, Pu.,
him taken a contract to furnish a
< hieago milliner with crow heads at
.’5 e< nts apiece. It. costs something
to got a dead crow, because it is an
e.lu-iic bird, and ammunition costs
oinet lung.
HiHTigs, however, is an enterpris
ing speculator. He lias devised u
cheine by which a maximum num
ber of erow.V heads can be obtained
at small expense. He has set up a
chicken incubator, in which are
placed, as fa t as laid, (lie. eggs of
about 100 hen crows that have been
trapped, with perhaps a elozeu cock
crows.
Within 15 days the little creatures
are hatched, and a fortnight later
they are ready to be beheaded. It is
understood that the head of a crow
ehiek is worth jin t as much as that
of the oldest of the same species.
At the uniform rate of four for a
dollar, dead, they will pay the pro
ducer. Farmer Billings has the only
< row hatchery in the world, and he
is justly proud of it.

MEDAL FOR GOOD NATURE.
Tooth In School Receive* l : naual
lleeigi n lit 100 for Ajnlabllhy
and Urbanity.
A modal for pure and unmitigated
good nature was awarded 1 , not many
days ago, to a youth in u public school,
ile bad not made a note-worthy record
for progress in learning: he had not
even reached a jxdnt beyond the aver
age among his fellows; he hud simply
eclipsed them all In amiability of the
kind that accepted rewards or punish
ments with urbane and 1 equal philoso
phy, says Harper’s Weekly. And the
fact that a medal was deemed not too
honorable for him tinder the circum
stances is significant evidence of the
high esteem in which good nature is
held. How it does oil the creaking
wheels of life to he sure! How smooth
it makes the path! What a comfort
able and comforting companion a truly
amiable person is, if he is only a dog!
When everything and everybody else
have ruffled, one the wrong way, and
made every individual set of injured
feelings one possesses stand up like
quills upon the fretful porcupine, how
soothing to step into the atmosphere
of the amiable person! Senenity en
ters, peace sets in, you laugh, he
laughs, the world turns rose-colored
again. Amiability accomplishes what
no sermon could. It is an immeasur
able influence for good. It is, there
fore, with satisfaction tliat we note
the presentation of a medal to the
good-natured boy. Why would it not
be a valuable custom tointrotfuce into
all our schools?
PREVENTIVE MEDICINES.
ICnllg li toned People Are Always on
the Lookout for the Ounce
of Prevention.
In looking over the history of the
search for a means of cure one is
struck by the great value of the ounce
of prevention. Keeping the germs out
is in every way preferable to dealing
with them after they have once en
tered the body. This fact scientific
medicine is impressing more and more
deeply on the minds of public authori
ties and the people, and their response
in the form of provisions for improved
public and private sanitation is one of
the striking features of the social
progress of the present time. All the
more enlightened nations, states and
cities of the world possess organized
departments of health, which, with
varying degrees of thoroughness, deal
with the problems presented in
fectious diseases in the light of the
latest discoveries, says the Medical
News. Fifty years ago the term pre
ventive medicine was unknown. To
day it represents a great body of well
attested and accepted principles. It
has cleaned our streets; it has helped
to build our model tenements; it has
purified our food and our drinking
water; it has entered our homes and
kept away disease; it has prolonged
our lives, and it has made the world a
sweeter place in which to live.
THE BRAVE WOLVERINE.
A iilnml I’uurafrd of I)ri>cro(e ('our
a4tr and Kadurance Faiiu'd
in Mlrlilnan.
Not “little wolf,” ns the Ignorant
think, is the significance of wolverine,
lint something of greater dignity mi
embodiment of the terrible sjiirit of
the wild fire of the pre-historic for
ests, says Outing. Wonderful in its
strength and courage, u tree climber
on occasion, not immense of size, but
with limbs and claws great, out of all
proportion to its size, with a muzzle
almost hog-like, bet with great white
fangs; the beast has still an element
of the grotesque in its make-sip, with
its sweeping’, bushy tail and the broad
bands of yellow white upon its back
and shoulders. Woe to the smaller
beast or the deer upon which it
dropped from some great low-hanging
branch, or liefore whom It suddenly
appeared in the dense windfalls.
Of all the continent the Michigan
peninsula was the chosen habitat of
the wolverine, and he struggled long
before backwoodsmen drove him from
heritage. So enduring was he, so
desperately courageous, that his name
became a synonym for pluck and
prowess, and proudly the people of
Michigan accept the nickname which
has been given them.
SELLS SMILES AND SERMONS.
••I.inly nf Quality” anil Merchant la
I. o nil on KnicaMe In Novel
Enterprise*.
In London one ran buy a ser
mon for one dollar, and for five dol-
Jars one can learn to smile like Queen
Alexandra. The merchant who deals
in sermons has more than 2,000 iu
stock, and they are classified to suit
all tastes. Thus some are dignified,
others dowry, others pathetic, others
long-winded, and some are even hu
morous. says the Detroit Free I’rcss.
It is "a lady of quality" who gives
instructions in the art of smiling, and
she is said to have a host of pupils,
all of whom desire to smile like her
majesty, and who are assured that
they can learn the art in three les
sons.
Another curious profession is that of
a man who otters to sell absolutely
new anecdotes of the king and qm n
at a price ranging from 25 cents to
two dollars. For the authenticity of
these anecdotes he vouches, and
scarcely a day passes that be din s not
offer some new story.*

AN OWL'S ODD FIGHT.
Sample of the Wonderful SlorleaThal
Brighten title In a I‘eun
■ flvnnla Town.
Story telling 1b a favorite pastime
winter nights in a comfortable sitting
room of one of the taverns of Susque
hanna, Pa., says the New York World.
Many of the yarns spun are wonders.
Here is a sample:
As Each Chandler, a Deep Hollow
wood-chopper, was out on Turks Hill
one day last fall in search of game, he
saw what he supposed to be two birds
sitting upon the limb of a red poplar
free. Crouching and creeping ahead,
he hid behind a stump, when he saw
the objects above him were evidently
two white owls. The owj; were fight
ing savagely for the possession of a
ground mouse which they had cap
tured in an adjoining field.
The struggle was lively and noisy.
For a moment the mouse could be seen
in the bill of one bird, then in the
claws of the other. There were loud
hoots and shrieks, and feathers fell
from the tree into the underbrush.
Fearing that the game would fly away
and escape, Chandler fired at the ob
ject and it came tumbling down.
Chandler rushed forward, and was
amazed to find but one owl, yet it
had two heads and four legs and feet.
There was but one body. The two
heads had been fighting for the posses
sion of the mouse.
The freak bird was badly riddled
by shot, but Chandler had sense
enough to know that he had a valuable
curiosity, and he worked faithfully to
save it, but it gave up the ghost the
next day. One head appeared to be
lifeless half an hour before the other
one died.
NO SMOKING AT WHITE HOUSE.
Sign Ifaa Been Fowled In (he Recep
tion Room Hearing the
Notice.
The average congressman who goes
bustling around from department to
department is inclined to smoke where
he listeth and knock the ashes from
his cigar where he pleases, says the
Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press. The practice is all
right for the ante-rooms of cabinet
officers, but President Roosevelt
thought it should not be carried into
the white house reception room. So
lie gave orders to Arthur Simmons,
the colored doorkeeper from North
Carolina, to request gentlemen not to
smoke. Arthur Simmons had a num
ber of strenuous interviews in carry
ing out liis instructions. Southern
and western congressmen were fre
quently moved to consign Arthur to
a superheated climate for his pains.
Arthur is one of the pillars of the
church in colored circles, and he final
ly complained to Secretary Cortelyou
that it pained him (♦ hear gentlemen
using such violent language. At his
request the “No Smoking Allowed ’
sign has been posted in the reception
room, and when gentlemen come in
with lighted cigars Arthur merely
looks meaningly toward the sign.
BUFFALO HAD TO CLIMB.
An ICxreptliMi.n.l Cane, According to
the Narrator. Who Waa Descend
ed from Ananias.
A rtenr relation* to the late Baron
Munchausen on the maternal side,
lineally descended from Ananias and
Sapphira, waa telling a party of friends
about treeing a bull buffalo in one of
the trees of California.
“That story lacks likelihood,” re
marked the man who knows every
thing, like so many other men; “the
buffalo belongs to the ruminant family,
lias four or five stomachs and* walks on
hoofs. It has no claws at all and could
no more climb a tree than a Jersey
cow."
"Asa general proposition you are
right,” said the story teller, with a per
fectly unruffled mien, according to Ihe
New* York Times. “But this case was
ignite exceptional. IVe were after the
buffalo with four of flic most vicious
dogs that I ever knew. One was a hoar
hound, one a great dane, one a psovie,
or wolf hound, and the other a regis
tered bulldog, with jaws like wrought
iron. Welli, (hey brought the buffalo
to hay at. the foot of a big tree and
pressed him so blamed hard that he
just-had to climb. That was Ids only
salivation.”
CLOTH MADE FROM ROCK.

The weaving of stone into material
for clothing, the making of flexible
and lasting granite trousers, black
marble coats and fancy onyx waist
coats may be a possibility of the fu
ture, the weavers say. Already cur
tains are made of asbestos and cloth
manufactured from chalk, while a cer
tain spinner lias an arm-chair covered
with a soft and silky fabric of lilian
red which he wove toilsomely out of
a rock n and shell. The weaver, says the
Detroit Free Press, thus describes Ihe
weaving: “1 threw a ton of rock,
in lumps as frig as your head, into the
picker. The picker blades were dulled,
Imt the rocks were crushed and came
out good stock with a staple an inch
long like aslx’stos. This Unify slull I
threw into my carding machine, and
first it become a soft inch-thick rope,
then a harrier quarter-inch twine, and
at this point my mule took it ami
twisted it till it was an ordinary
thread, like that you sec on a spool of
cot ton. I wove it or. a hand loom then.
This little piece of cloth it’s 18 inches
square is all I got. It took a ton of
for k to make it. 1 claim it, is the first
cloth ever woven out of real rock in
I the history of the world.”
HELPS GOLDBRICK TRADE.
The Lom ft a. Dar of Pore Metal la
• Fine Thing for (he Con
fidence Man.
The loss of a bar of gold recently
by an employe of a firm of assayers
prompted some pessimistic remarks
by an officer of the United States as
say office. Ho said the recovery of the
bar was of no importance, so far as
his theory was concerned, reports the
New York Sun 4
“Every time the loss of a gold bar is
advertised,” said this officer, “it means
a harvest to the hustling gold brick
man. He dips the notice and the news
items bearing on it and sends them
with a fetching letter to a carefully
selected clientele.
“The letter is always a work of art.
Ft t ells'll ow the writer, who is honest
but unfortunate, found the bar, or
‘brick,’ is it is usually called, and feels
that he Is entitled to more than the
reward ordinarily forthcoming from
the loser. For this reason he offers
it to the recipient of the letter, who
is assured of a handsome profit if he
will make the trip to town.
“One of the recipients will accept,
and as the false bar bears something
like the United States seal and the
advertised number of the lost bar, the
details of the scheme are easily car
ried through.
“The of the. bar within a
day or two, as happened in the pres
ent case and almost every other,
doesn’t matter, as the clientele sel
dom read! the metropolitan dailies.
“We expect to receive any number
of letters from now on regarding this
liar. Often the fake bars are brought
>n for our inspection, but nearly al
ways too late. They have been paid
for. In the case of letters, we advise
the. writers to go easy before buying;
or, if the ease is one where the bar
has been recovered, we say so very
emphatically.”
VARYING SIZES OF FISH.
Snrprlwlng Fnr( Concerning Sepnrate
Specie* I.enrneil at the New
York Aininrlimi.
There are big fish and little adult,
fish of the same species, as there are
big men and little men. Strange and
unaccountable as it may seem, it is a
demonstrated fact that there fish
of the same species and of the same
age which differ greatly in size. In
some cases it is possible to explain why
there is a disparity in size. At the
aquarium, for instance, there arc fish
which have not grown for several
years, which would have increased in
si/e had they been in tHeir native
habitat. In their cases it is known
that their confinement has something
to do with this failure to grow.
A visitor to the biological laboratory
of the New York aquarium a few days
ago was surprised to be told that a
fish in one of the round glass jars,
which was only an inch or thereabouts
in length, was more than a year old.
Such a fish in its native waters prob
ably would have been four or five
inches long, be was told.
That there is also an unaccountable
reason for this difference in the size of
fish was shown by Mr. Spencer, who
has charge of the aquarium. “You
would be surprised to know,” said lie,
“that in fish hatcheries you will often
find fish of the same kind and the
same age which are not at all alike
in size. Some will be only half as long
as the others. Sometimes it is neces
sary to take out the smaller ones, be
cause the larger ones swallow them.”
CITY KEEPS RABBIT WARREN.
Torquay, Eincland, Mkikon Conn I dur
able Revenae Out oif Mu
nicipal I.nod.
In* 1896 the council of Torquay, Dev
onshire, England, with a population of
33.000, purchased the watershed to se
cure the purity of tlwe water supply,
but was not satisfied that the four
square miles of land should lie idle.
Portions of the land are devoted to hay.
oats, etc., on which the horses of the
city are fed, and on other parts some
200 sheep graze. More profitable tlnnu
the sheep are the rabbits which abound
in all parts of the moorland.
Men arc employed as trappers to
catch these animals, and during the
last 12 months over 16,000 rabbits were
sold at an average price of 13% cents
after paying expenses. The woodlands
are preserved and about 22 partridges
were killed and sold during the year.
A nursery of more than 170,000 fir and
larch trees la maintained, and these
also add to the yearly income.
The land cost the city $500,000, says
the Municipal Journal and Engineer,
but it is very probable that the returns
'rom the industries to which it is de
voted will soon wipe out this debt.
Wanton Destruction.
The buffaloes of the. west have been
treated, almost as wantonly as the for
ests of the east. Of course, it was nec
essary that both should be thinned out
considerably to make room for an ad
vancing civilization, but it was not nec
essary nor was it wise that eithei
should be brought so near the point of
annihilation, says the Boston Tran
script. The contempt for and hostil
ity to the sublime primitiveness of
tliis country that have marked an ad
vance more resistless Ilian any of the
old buffalo migrations have been pain
ful and unpraiseworthy features of opr
last century development.

PHONE 37
| The Pilot for job work
before attempting suicide, wrote an
anonymous letter to his mother break
ing the news of the accidental death
of her son—which, as a matter of fact,
did not come off.
With similar forethought a provin
cial bank manager on his deathbed
was said lately to have dictated a tele
gram to headquarters saying; “Great
ly regret to inform you that 1 died this
morning of pneumonia.— (Signed) pp.
Thomas Brown.” An Irishman once
confessed that he had contemplated
suicide by hanging himself on a wil
low tree overhanging a river near his
potato patch, but had given up the
idea from fear lest the cord should
break and he should be drowned.
