THERMOMETER TALES.
Ob* Patient Sacked the Little In»trn»
meat and Another Thought It
Was a Drink.
To people who are fortunately unfa*
miliar with sickness the thermometers
used in taking the temperature of pa
tients are always a source of consider
able interest. A professional nurse
whose experience has led her to numer
ous localities and brought her in con
tact with many phases of life tells two
stories which illustrate the foregoing
statement, says the New York Times.
In one of the local hospitals she had a
male patient who was threatened with
a run of fever. As ^he approached hie
bedside one morning he querulously
complained of a lack of nourishment.
“I didn’t get enough to eat,” he Bald.
"I feel almost starved."
"Well, well," she said, soothingly,
"we will see about that. Here,” she
added, “let me put this in your mouth."
She Inserted the thermometer be
tween his teeth and turned away a mo
ment. When she looked back he was
working the bulb around between his
Jaws at a great rate.
"Hold on!” she cried, “you will break
the thermometer!”
He drew in his cheeks and apparently
gave a mighty pull on the little instru
ment, and then she removed it
“Say,” he grumbled, "there’s no use
giving me that I couldn’t suck a blame
thing out of it.”
Another patieht, a woman, begged the
nurse for a drink.
“Wait,” said the nurse, and thrust the
thermometer in her mouth.
The patient lay back on her pillow and
placidly closed her eyes. A satisfied ex
pression slowly stole over her face.
When the time was up the nurse with
drew the tube.
"Why,” said the patient, with a sigh
of gratification, “what a lot of good a
little thing like that will do you!”
NEW USE FOR OLD CUPS.
4n Just the Thing (or the Mayon
naise Dressing Thinks a '
Housewife.
1
The Ingenious woman has discovered
a new use for her old-fashioned cups and
odd cups. They have long been good
for nothing in particular on account of
their large size and because they have
no handles. Yet these big cups are ex
actly the shape of many of the mayon
naise dishes, and may be used to ad
vantage for this purpose, says the
Washington Star.
With the preaching of the doctrines
of salads by the apostles of good health
there has been an increasing use of let
tuce, celery, tomatoes, cucumbers and
vegetables of different kinds served cold
with dressings. In consequence the
mayonnaise cup has become a staple
article of table service. Many people
prefer the French dressing to the rich
er mayonnaise; some a larger quanti
ty \han others. It is advisable to have
a dish of dressing upon the table, in
stead of dressing the individual salad
beforehand.
The dishes made for holding mayon
naise are to be found in different shapes.
Some are oblong, like small sauce boats
with a flat rather than a looped han
dle at the end. Others are round like
cups. They will all hold perhaps a half
pint, and the saucers to match are
round or oblong, according to the shape
of the dish. The round dishes are noth
ing more or less than large cups.
The woman who makes the most of
everything utilizes cups that she has or
picks up at the bargain table, and has
an up-to-date article of table service
with little or no expense.
STYLISH HOME GOWNS.
Popular Materials and Designs (••
Evening and Reception
Wear.
Lace gowns are thought exceedingly
smart for reception wear, and can be
either all black or all white, while there
are some most attractive models in the
black lace over a white or colored lin
ing, says Harper's Bazar. Black and
white effects, however, are not thought
so smart as they were. Black, white
or colored crepe de chine, crepe de Paris
and the various weaves of crepe are
much in demand for reception gowns,
but are made up with so much lace that
there does not seem to be any reason
for calling them crepe de chine gowns.
The odd flowered taffeta silks in the
light and most peculiar of shadings are
also in style, with plaited or flounced
skirts. One model of pale mauve and
pink changeable taffeta with flounce
skirt has each flounce edged wfith the
daintiest flowered ribbbon not over an
inch and a half wide. Soft fichus of
chiffon edged with lace ruffles and el
bow sleeves finished also with lace
soften and make more becoming th«
rather hard lines that the taffeta some
•.imes possesses in these cold shades of
coloring.
An all-white gown is the smartest for
reception wear, and can be in light
weight cloth, embroidered silk, crepe de
chine, chiffon or batiste. It may be on
severely plain lines or elaborate in ef
fect, with bands of lace, embroidery or
fancy trimming. Only one point is to
be strictly insisted on—it must be be
coming.
Mushrooms unit Oyster Pie.
Peel, wash and dry one-quarter pound
of fresh mushrooms, and chop them
coarsely. Cook together for three min
utes, stirring constantly, one table
spoonful of butter and one level table
spoonful of minced onion. It must not
brown. Add the mushrooms and on*
level teaspoonful of minced parsley.
Cook three minutes more. Mix lightly
with one quart of fresh plump oysters,
season to taste, and pour into a deep pi*
dish lined with puff paste, and bake io
a good oven until done.—Home Mag

THEIR OWN BARBERS.
laertiitl Sales of Rasora Indicate
That Marc Men Thaa Bver Be
fore Shave Themselves.
"There are sold In this country to
day," said a cutlery man, according to
the New York Sun, “a hundred times
as many razors as were sold her* 40
years ago
"Some share of this increase is due,
of course, to the advance in population,
but the greater part la due to the large
increase in the proportion of men who
shave themselves. - More men than ever
before now possess this polite art.
"With a greater number of Individ- '
ual users of rasors there are, of course,
nany more razors now sold. And, of
tourse, plenty of men own more than
one razor; everyone ought to own two,
at least, as many men do. One good
razor properly cared for might serve j
Ua purpose Continuously and well for |
a long time without regrinding or hoa- j
lag, but an accident might happen to
It, and against that a man guards by j
having at lsast one extra razor.
"Many men buy seta of aeven razors,
ona for each day In the week, and there
are men who have sets of 31 raaora, one
for every day la the month. And trav- j
elers going to distant countries and Into
raglons where facilities would ba lack- j
ing buy cases of razors to taka with !
them. A traveler starting out with a j
case of half a dozen razors in perfect
condition would have a razor outfit
that, with such care as he could be
stow upon It himself, would serve him
well for years.
“The best razor that can be made
can be bought with a plain handle for
two dollars; anything more than that In
the cost of it would be in the mounting
—in pearl handles and so on. You can
buy a case of seven fine razors, sim
ply mounted, for $12, or you oan pay
$50 or more for a case of rasors with
the same blades, but with fine mount
ings and in a finer oase.n

WE CAN'T EAT CELERY NOW.
Doetora Haro Cat Off Another Artlel*
of Diet—Vegetable Said to Carry
Typhoid Germe. 1
Now the physicians are said to have
forbidden another relish nearly as pop- ■
nlar as oysters at this time, says ths 1
Washington Star. Celery has come
under the ban of the doctors, who say
that It is equally well adapted to trans
mitting the poisonous elements of ths
soil and .carrying the germB of typhoid.
The disease can be acquired only by
Introducing the microbes Into the sys
tem In food or drink, and for that rea- i
son advice against certain kinds of food
is always likely to be regarded. But
to what extent this may be carried Is
well understood by the proprietor ol
one hotel, who has seen oysters during
the past three weeks disappear almost <
entirely from the orders of his guests. ‘
Some weeks ago a well-known man died
•f typhoid fever. He had lived at a ' ]
large hotel, and the report went about
that he had got his Illness there. "What- '
ever you do, don’t eat oysters ht that
hotel,’’ was the advice that one friend
was giving another, based on the belief
that this man had died of a disease con
tracted In the hotel dining-room, where
the chances were Immensely In favor
of his having got the fever somewhere
else.
If they keep on there will be nothing
left for us to eat except fleh and frit- -
ters, and the latter will probably be cut
off sooa and pills substituted. |
SOLD HER HUSBAND'S GRAVE.
Hew a loath era Woaaa Mala a Prof,

Cemetery Lot.
NOne of those things which go to show
that where there is a will there Is a way
is well exemplified by a happening In a
certain southern city,” said a weft
known former railroad man In the New 1
Orleans Times-Democrat *‘A man Ha.
fore his marriage had purchased a (
beautifully located lot la the city cem
etery and paid $100 for it. After awhile
he married and soma ten or twelve year*
afterward died and was burled in the I
aforesaid beautifully located lot and hie |
grave was carefully attended for awhile
by his widow.
44When the big show came off In Chi
cago and all the world was en route to
that mecca the widow took a notion she
must see the show. As a result ol (
long oogitation over ways and meant
she had the body of her deceased hus
band exhumed and railroaded 50 miles
away and reburied at a cost of about
$75, when ehe sold the cemetery lot for -
$600 and had a good old time at the big
world's fair. Somewhat of a financier,
waan't she?"
OlMi-SaktBi la Japan.
The art of making glass was Intro
duced Into Japan about 150 years ago
by a Hollander, who settled at Osaka.
For several generations the knowledge
of the process was confined to a single
family, and it was not until about 1879
that the employment of coal Instead of
charcoal, and the construction of brick
chimneys, enabled the manufacturers
to Introduce improvements which
placed the Industry on a substantial
basis. Osaka has continued to be the
center erf tjie industry, and now manu
factures for export besides supplying
the home demand.
Sore to Be Fined.
Some butchers of Frankfort, Ger
many, evidently find it cheaper to be
fined small sums for using boraclo
acid In the manufacture of Frankfort
sausages than to be haled up for sell
ing meats affected with trichinae o*
allowing the dearer meats to Bpoll In
other ways. John Klein, a butcher,
followed the example of many others
recently and was fined only $2.30. If
this eum were paid every day in tinea,
the loss caused the butcher would not
bs so great In a year as the lots from
meats undootored with the ~*~~m1ral
Pimples?
Pimples, boils, scrofula, sores and
other disfiguring skin eruptions arise
from impure blood and why take
evil tasting doses of drug saturated
alcohol, when you can get small,
pleasant and tasteless Johnston's
Tonic Capsules. They make pure
blood and cure skin troubles.
Johnston's Tonic Capsules are the very best
vegetable blood medicines condensed into a small,
easily taken, tasteless capsule, without alcohol, j
You can carry them in a tiny box in the pocket
and take them anywhere without attracting
notice. In them you get the condensed curatives
of true medicinal plants, roots, barks, blossoms,
leaves and fruit —the health-giving qualities
nature has stored in the products of field, swamp
tnd wildwood.
Johnston’s Tonic Capsules are the surest,
latest, most reliable, convenient and satisfactory
medicine that can be taken to purify and enrich
the blood. They unload it of every impurity and
it the same time so promote the nutritive func
tions as to abundantly supply it with new, rich and
life-sustaining qualities. They make the blood
pure and rich, and through pure blood the bodily
ttructures come right, because they depend on
the blood for nourishment and renewal.
For over 40 years Johnston’s Tonio Capsules
have been held in high esteem at a most reliable
ind aatisfactory remedy ttfr scrofula, rheuma
tism, ecxema, old sores, painfnl swellings, kernels
ind enlarged glands, catarrh, scurvy, boils, liver
complaint, dyspepsia, jaundice, constipation,
kidney troubles and a long list of common nils
ind ills. ,
We have great confidence in this medicine; •
;onfidence born of many years’ experience with
t, and we make the following extraordinary
>ffer: Send us a dollar for a large box of John*
iton’s Tonic Capsules, or buy the same of dealer
ivhose name appears below, use bait of them, and
if you are not satisfied, mail the balance to ut and
ve will return your money. Test them at our risk

tnnnarant ft Williams’ Marvelous In* ^
yention, the Missing Link connecting
Imagination and Realism—The One
Unique Feature In a Mile of Shows—
Remarkable Journey awaits World's
Fair Visitors.
In the history of World’s Expositions,
erhaps in no division does the public de- / ,
land greater progress than in Its amnssmeny
matures, and that this has been the pew
lount and successful endeavor of Dunnavant
; Williams, Inventors and builders of Under
nd Over the Sea, one needs but take pas
age and be convinced.
In this great production on the Pike,
dentists, inventors, artists,, mechanics
nd electricians have vied with each other
iward a common goal, “originality.”
(either time nor money has been spared,
nd the public demands have been met and
xceeded, in the full realization of a sdb
larine voyage to Paris, and return by air
hip, Can you imagine the sensations of
achatrip? No; then embark with me! The
atchway through which we have entered
lis monster iron fish is hermetically sealed; *
ur 498 fellow passengers (the capacftyoTj .
oat is 500) comfortably seated; the captain,.”
y a secret code of signals, issues his com4
lands; the well-trained crew make ready
,r our novel journey; the huge hull of the
ubmarine monster quivers gently, and then
radually but surely we feel our strange craft
Inking, sinking down to the lowest beds
f the ocean. From the powerful electrlo
eiarch lamps, suddenly, light breaks at each
ide of the cabin, through the two oblong \
rysta! plates, separating us from the sea. I
he obscurity of the cabin shows to advan- ]
ige the brightness outside, and what a \
icctaclo is revealed to our bewildered \
ision—flowers, fungi, polypi, plants, sheila '
nd rock, a veritable kaleidoscope of green,
ellow, orange, violet and blue. With ex
ited exclamations of wonder and admiration
e gaze through the crystal plartes, at the
rjuatic army surrounding us. The boat’s
tanometer indicates our depth now—1,000
ithoms below the surface—and our captain,
careful, brave and experienced submarine
tipper*skillfully manipulating the electric
irltohboard at which he stands-velwaya and
ver alert to the dangers of the deep—stops
ur downward course and points his vessel
iralght ahead; the pressure of an electrlo
utton is simultaneous with a convulsive throb
s the mighty engine responds, the giant pro*
eller churns the sea into a foaming fury and
1th a leap and bound, as of a frightened
ling of life, we plunge forward through the
■ansparent watery mass to explore the un
nown depths.
The denizens of the sea startled Into an
otivitythey have seldom known, so engross
ur attention, the approach of a mammoth
arwbale or unicorn of the sea is quite unnoticed
ntil almost upon ns. The at first startled pas*
angers are quicmy reassureu uy me w^uuu,
here is no danger; our armament has been
rell looked to in the emergency of attack,
ut as the monster fish playfully circles
round us, strangely familiar and pleasant
ounds fall upon our ears; presently the mas
ivejaws of our friendly inclined escort open
nd revoal a semi-earthly being, contentedly
eated on its monster green tongue, and in a
ne basso voice is singing the lay of the deep
lue sea; the torpedo-like velocity of our
raft, however, soon leaves the serenader,
ir in our wake, the echoes of this presum*
bly Jonah’s voice, have hardly died away,
'hen far?Jahead and immediately in our
ourse is seen the mermaid’s play-ground,
arlous kinds of Isis, clusters of pure tuft
oral, and prickly fungi form a beautiful gar*
en on the ocean’s bed; a shoal of mermaids
ppear to our now thoroughly delighted
isions, the delicately tinted gold and silver
e-scaled bodies gracefully bounding over,
nder and around the boat, as if imbued with
arthly vanity, they would rival each other’a
rightness.
With never-end Ing and tireless energy, our
Teat speed undiminished, we rush madly on;
ur goal is soon at hand; the pumps are set
1 motion—the water drawn from the tanks,
lur now buoyant vessel speedily finds the
urface, and the thrilling subterranean pas
age has ended. Disembarking, we are
uided to the base of Eiffel Tower; Immense
levators take us to its summit, where a mas*
ive airship restlessly tugging at its moor
lg awaits to carry us back over land and
ea. All aboard! Cast anchor; and the bird*
ke wings moving up and down, the flight
trough space has commenced. Paris soon
ides from view as with the speed of light we
ush along the pathless wastes; meteors,
omets, beasts of the -'air, and lightning
torms are encountered, but undismayed is
he captain of this weird craft, and emerging
rom a bank of clouds, our astonished and
iewildered senses are now completely dazed
.t the vision that greets our eyes—the World's
■■air is spread out immediately below us;
;ently the airship descends and discharges
lerprecious cargo of mystified and delighted
>assengers at the Pike landing dock, we have
mjoyed a marvelous experience and conf
licted our trip, under and over the sea.
