who reached the age of sixty-two in
Juno ami went on the retired list, has
been noted as a very strict disciplina
rian. but he has also boon noted for
tils generosity and bis biutf pood lieart

into trouble some yea.-s ago, and ha
was court inarth'.ied on chimes of cru
elty to subordinates and suspended
from the service for three years. On
account of his previous deeds of gal
lantry It was decided In IHnl, a year
after Imposition of his sentence, that
lie should be restored at once to active
service. He had expressed regret for
his acts and wished a chance to re

trlcve his reputation. When the war
with Spain occurred Admiral McCalla
made audi n good record In command
of the Marhleheud that he was restored
to the place be held on the list of of
tlcera previous to his suspension. In
IKIK) he commanded the Newark and
aided In the pacification of the Philip
pines. and In 1000 he co-operated with
the British Vice Admiral Seymour In
putting a stop to the Iloxer troubles In
China and In this campaign gained the
congratulations of the nuvy depart
ment and encomiums from naval and
military authorities all over the world.
He received the command of the bat
tleship Kearsarge In 1901. It was while
Admiral McCnlla was In command of
the Marblehetid during the Simnlsh
war and off the shore of Cuba that the
marines on shore had n stiff fight with
the Spanlurds. They sent word to
him: "Come and take us off. We are
getting the worst of It here." The re
ply the admiral, then a captain, sent
hack was characteristic. "The only
kind of mnrlnes I will tnko on my
ship," said he, "will bo dend marines."
The Imperiled men therefore stayed,
and they won. Admiral McCalla re
ceived a considerable sum as prize
money In consideration of his Spanish
war record, but Instead of retaining It
for his own use he made amends for
past offenses by giving It all for a na
val clubhouse, under the auspices of
the Y. M C. A? for the benefit of the
sailors and marines stationed at Mare
Island, San Francisco, where the admi
ral was for some time In command.

Mir Way to Treat I)rua? ami KanaicI- ;

ful housekeeper. "I should never uilow

"If the brass Is used as decoration
on Iron beds that are enameled the lat

"Oeeaslonully the knobs on brass and

CAYENNE PEPPER.
I(a Jndlfloim 1 ?? In C'ooktnK Hrliign
C?mk1 Hesultat.
Comparatively few people are aware
that cayenne popper If used Judiciously
may be made to arid appreciably to the
digestibility of the products of the
cook's domains.
If prescribed by the doctor and pur
chased at the drug store It will appear
tinder the name capsicum, bflt It will
be cayenne pepper Just the same, and
It is wise to begin Its use before the
time nrrlveR to seek the good offices of
a physician
The tendency of red or cayenne pep
per is to draw the blood to the stom
ach. where It ts needed while the diges
tion of food Is taking ptnce. This kind
of pejiper must not l>e employed ng lib
erally as black pepper, however, or It
will Is- so much In evidence that It will
lie Impossible to eat the food.
Use It sparingly, and It will help to
bring out the flavor of many savory
dishes, altlmaoli Its presence will not
lie detected. I'sc It In soups, In baked
lieans, In stews. In hash and tn many
more complicated culinary products.

Wipe off furniture with a cloth

the edges are slightly dampened with

Rocking chairs ate best In other
rooms than the invalid's. They are
Inclined to creak In the first place, and
in the second place they make a still

really better in any case for any one If
nerves are in consideration.
ConTrnkiu^ For the Drenalnw Table.
While visiting recently ut the house
of n friend I saw a little homemade
eonveuienee. designed to be placed be
neath the mirror above- the dressing
table. It was made of four small cigar
boxes screwed together. Each was
placed on end, two below aud two
above. The covers were arranged to
open like doors, swinging outward,
of course. The top was finished with
a scroll work made of the cigar box
wood. Very pretty It was, too, and the
work of a woman. The doors were
furnished with tiny kuobs. The whole
was to be stained and varnished, to
mutch the table, making a little cabinet
pretty enough to grace any lady's
dressing table. It was designed to
hold toilet bottles or any accessory of
the toilet.?Christian Work.
Tlte Mf-HHlfM Theory.
Specialists tu children's diseases In
sist that the old theory that children
should be exposed to measles Is abso
lutely wrong. In speaking of It one
well known physician says: "Super
stltlou Is even more rtfe in all classes
today than It was a hundred years ugo.
In no case Is It more prevalent and dis
astrous than In the treatment of mea- i
sles. The medical profession has tried
In vain to stamp out the old Idea that
every child must have measles and
that a child therefore might as well be
pot Into the same bed with a brother
or sister who Is suffering from the com
platat.
A Cooking Secret.
The great secret of French cooking
Is a knowledge of the variety of food
to he bad. plenty of time to prepare
the food and a slow tire American
cooks are In so much of a hurry that
when tbey prepare a meal they Im
agine that what Is necessary la plenty
of fuel and a roaring hot Are. With
meats this sluiply hakes or Incinerates
the fibers Instead of permitting the
Juices to perform their proper func
tions. And this "hurry up" system Is
what Is, slowly perhaps, but surely,
making Americans a race of dyspep
tics.
r THERE IS A REASON FOR CHEWING I
REYNOLDS' SUN CURED TOBACCO |
Chewers becoming tired of heavily
sweetened sun cured tobaccos caused
REYNOLDS' SUN CURED to quick
ly win from the old brands of much
longer standing the place as favorite with
sun cured chewers, because it contains
iust enough proper sweetening and fla
voring to preserve the quality of the leaf
and enhance its goodness, causing a large
increase in the demand for sun cured
tobaccos.
REYNOLDS'
SUN CURED
is not only pure sun cured, but it is made
from choice selections of the genuine sun
cured leaf grown where the best sun
cured tobacco grows. It is like that you
formerly got, costing from 60c. to $1.00
per pound, and is sold at 50c. per pound
in 5c. cuts; strictly 10c. plugs, and is the
best value in sun cured tobacco that can
be produced for chewers.
