DISCRIMINATING LADIES.
Baiojt r?l>K Rerplrlde on Account of ]
Ita Distinctiveness.
The ladles who have used Xewbro's
Herplclde speak of It In the highest
terms, for Its quick effect In cleansing
the scalp of dandruff and also for Its ex- ;
cellence as a general halr-dresslng It ?
makes the scalp- feel fresh and It allays
that Itchhig which dandruff will cause. c
?vrbro'8 Herpiofde effectively cures t
dandruff, as It destroys the perm that s
causes It. The same trarm causes hair to ,
fall out. and later baldness; In killing It.
Herplclde stops falling hair and prevents c
KV.dness. It Is also an ideal hair dress- j
Ing. for It lends an aristocratic charm to
the hair that Is quite distinctive. Sold 'f
by leading druggists. Send lfle. in stamps .

Carrnu la the Coffee Hoaxe.
Johu I'hiipot Currun. the famous
Irish lawyer, ranks among the wittiest ,
men the Emerald Isle has ever pro- f
duced. His wit. however, was some- i
times turued against himself by the iu- i
tended victim, the following story, tak- t
en from the volume of biographical r
reminiscences entitled "Mrs. Brook- '
flekl and Her Circle." furnishing an '
amusing example of how Curran was ;
once outdone: ]
A brisk young widow in some part of "
Ireland used to preside at the table of |
a coffeehouse patrouized by Cumin. '
Her name was Honor, and one day !
there was some disputed charge. '
Curran slyly winked at the friend
who hapi>ened to be dining with him
and proposed "honor aiul honesty."
"By all means." added the widow
briskly, holding her glass to be filled, t
"let us- drirrfe to Mr. Curran's absent
friends."
Dalniea Follow Railways.
"Buttercups aud daisies follow rail
roads the world over," said an en
giaeer. "In India, iu central Asia, in
Brazil, the parallel rails run continual
ly between meadows white aud yellow
with home flowers. In the construction
of all foreign railways American or
English engineers have a hand. These
tnen know that good home grass is the
best thing for holding together the
(earth on embankments. Grass Is tough
and lasting. It strikes root so easily
that It practically cements the most
flimsy earthworks. So grass seed from
home is sown on railway embankments
all over the world by the home en
gineers helping to build them, and thus
In the most tropical places, among gor
geous orchids and palms and giant
cacti, you will see mile after mile of
wholesome, clean home grass, studded
with white daisies and yellow, butter
cups."
* The Cam of Scotlmad.
Among the reasons why the nine of
diamonds has been called the curse of
Scotland are the following:
Diamonds, nine of, called the corse
of Scotland, from a Scotch member of
parliament, part of whose family urtns
Is the nine of diamonds, voting for the
introduction of the malt tax into Scot
land. ? "Chronology; or. The Histo
rians Qoinpanian," Fourth Edition, by
Thomas Tegg, London, liC-'tJ.
There is a George Campbell men
tioned In Burton's "History of Scot
land" as having caused the nine of
diamonds to be called the curse of
Scotland because he stole nine dia
monds out of the royal crown in the
reign of Mary Stuart, in consequence
of which all Scotland was taxed.

Sometimes a canary's coat gets a
pale, sickly yellow. Give him half an
ounce of ground red pepi>er such as is
used on your table and let the bird eat
It as he likes. In a week he'll turn a
beautiful orange color. Bird lice are
troublesome at times. A pinch of pow
dered safTron put under the wings will
drive away the pests. Gravel in tJe
cage every day and a dish of tepid wa
ter for a bath every other day are in
dispensable to the singer's health and
happttess.
