that English people use an average oi

annually over 1,700,000,000,000 are
burned. The largest match factory is

hired from the makers for one shil

new organ is £25. The cost of setting
an organ to new tunes is about four

HABITS OF SPEECH.
Faulty Language ll»ei in Child*
hood la Hard to Correct In
After Ldfe.
“Why do educated parents allow
their children to contract habits of un
grammatical speech that will have to be
conquered in after-life?” asked a spin
ster of a mother.
“Because they hate to worry the poor
little things about such matters when
they are young and should be care free.
It seems cruel to be all the time cor
recting them and keeping them on their
good behavior. They will have to learn
tlie rules of our dreadful language all
too soon as it is,”
“Yes,” said the spinster, “and in ad
dition to learning to speak properly
they will have to unlearn the tricks o£
speech in which they have been allowed
;• indulge all their little lives. I know,”
laughing, “that there is much ridicule
of ’old maids’ children,’ but I believe
that my theory in this case is correct.
If is a positive unkindness to let your
child double his negatives and say
‘ain't,’ when several years from now he
will be harshly reproved for such
lapses. The child must learn to talk,
anyway, and is it not as easy to teach
him to say 'It is I,’ as ‘It’s me?’ And is
it. not as simple for the little tongue to
lisp ‘I saw it,' as ‘I seen it ?’ I love baby
talk, and should not correct a child for
his mispronunciation of hard words,
As lie grows older he will himself see
his mistakes in that line and change
them. But I insist that it is a parent’s
duty to make the difficult path togram
matical speech as easy as possible by
never allowing the little ones to stray
.from it iu the beginning.”—Harper’s
Bazar.
Some Mexican lL«wa.
A Topeka man who recently toured
Mexico tells that they have some very
curious criminal laws down there. For
•xample, the statutes make it twice as
much of an offense to mutilate the face
of a woman as that of a man. White in
die City of Mexico he attended court
■one day and saw a man sentenced to
one year in prison for cutting his para
mour across the face with a knife. IT
his victim had been a man the sentence
.vould not have been more than four
months at the outside. The law seems
to be based on the idea that a woman’s
best possession is her beauty, and that
to mar it does her a great injury. There
is another curious law. If a person
should he wounded in an encounter the
punishment to the offender is fixed by
the number of days his victim has to
stay in the hospital or under a doctor’s
•are. A line is fixed at 40 days in the
way of a general division. If the in
jured man occupies more than 40 days
in his recovery the penalty doubles up.
As we understand the Topeka man
these are not court customs, but statu
tory enactments.—Kansas City Jour

gathered in a bunch of twenty

Five out of the twenty-one,
Bailey Owens, Will Bennett,
Pony Young, John Tyler and
Frank Vagner, managed to prove
they were not directly interested
in the stakes; seven were willing
to plead guilty and take their
medicine of $10 and costs. They
were Will Pearson, Ed Donald
i son, Levi Thompson, Brutus
j Edwards, Mart White, John
I Watson and Henry Lee.
The remaining nine appeared
before Esquire Smith Monday in

creased in addition to the $10 fine.

Periodic
Pains.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy;
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
As pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex
I Iiausted condition, it is wrong
! to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
1 have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.
“For a long time I have suffered
greatly with spells of backache, that
Seem almost more than I can endure.
These attacks come on every month,
and last two or three days, I have
never been able to get anything -that,
would give me much relief until 1 be
began the use of Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain
Pils, and they always relieve me in a
short time. My sister, who suffers
the same way, has used them with
the same results.” MRS. PARK.
