Catarrh is a systemic disease curable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy

Peruna does.

Statistics of Billiards.
Taxation enables many curious ta
bles of statistics to be compiled. It
would probably puzzle the best of
English statisticians to guess " even
approximately at the number of bil
liard tables in use in England. . There
is no such 4 difficulty in France, where
the billiard table is a taxed luxury
and its relative frequency in com
munes of all grades of population and
wealth Is made the subject of calcu
lations as elaborate as they are in
genious. In all France there are
89,676 billiard tables, divided among
18,601 communes, and realizing more
than 40,000 in taxes. London Tit

"Well, my man, are you a contented

"Yes, sir, very."
"They why do you want my field?"

Hoodoo Window In the Post Office.
Dozens of times in hs long term of
office Postmaster Van Cott was asked
to change the number of the' principal
delivery window in the money order
department to some other number than
13." No money is ever paid in at
that window, but orders for hundreds
of dollars, which are cashed at the
next window, have passed through it
every business day for a great many
years.
"Surely you don't - believe In that
thirteen foolishness?" was the Post
master's joking reply, whenever he
was spoken to about it, and the hoodoo
number remained. Not long ago a
man asked of the clerk behind the
window:
"Do you find that 13 a hoodoo?"--
The clerk looked up quickly. "1
shouldn't like to say 'Whether I do or
not," he said. "A good many persons
have asked me that question."
"Well," said the questioner, "per
haps the influence will get around to
the old man some day, and then he'U
think it Is." New York Press.

Cannibalism appecrs to be unknown
among me lower animals In a staje
of nature. In India seme instances of
snakes devouring one another have
been collected, but it has been point
ed out that in every case cited the
snakes were of different species.
This, it is declared, is no more an act
of cannibalism than the devouring of
a fleid mouse by a rat. Unquestion'
able cannibalism was noted some
years ago in a London menagerie,
when a python ate another of its'
own kind, but this was under the un
natural conditions imposed by life in
captivity.

Mr. D. H. Alexander, Federal pension
examiner, of Savannah, arrived at
Beaufort Saturday, and caused the ar
rest of Peter Watson, colored, of St,
Helena Island, on the charge of embez
zling pension money belonging to some
minor children. It is charged that,-as
guardian of the minors of Chaplin,
Watson appropriated some of the
money to his own use. He was given
a hearing before United States Com
missioner J. O'H. Sanders and was held
in bond in 'the sum of $500.
A Xr Hampshire Plan.
Governor Bachelder, of New Harap-.
shire, says: , "Within a day's ride of
our summer capital. Mount Washing
ton, there are 10,000,000 people. We
would like to have at least one-tenth,
of them visit us every summer, and in
order to get them and keep them as
long as we can, we are planning to im
prove our highways, so as to make a
good impression on pur visitors when
they arrive ion foot, by horseback, by
boat, by bicycle, in automobiles, palace
car . or steam yacht. They are wel
come; they are all welcome, nnd the
welcome is equally hearty for one and
til." '. 'j ' - , " '
" In order to enable the visitors to see
the State4of New Hampshire,- the Gov
ernor has appointed an engineer,' who
Is at work mapping the roads of the
State, and under. the oovernor's direc
tion a comprehensive system of per-
maneut road improvement is beiug out
lined with much exactness hefore a
dollar is expended In ; its , completion
asto clearly show where the perma
nently improved roads are to begin and
end, and the expense to the State for
their construction, together with the
annual expense of maintenance.
The improved highways will aim to
permeate every section of the State
with at least a well ballasted, wel
drained and well surfaced gravel road.
whose cost, using the present roadbed
for a base, will be from $S00 to $1500
a mile. On this calculation, appropri
ating $100,000 a year for six years, tlio
State would have at the end of that
time COO miles of th best roads In the
world for light .travel and mountain
scenery, traversing the State from its
entrances at the southwest to the
White Mountains. It is intended, to
divide the cost of completing the roads
between ,the State, county and towns,
the same as in New York. The Gov
ernor says there is no more mystery
about building roads than about build
ing houses. Use common, practical
business sense and conform the cost
of your highway to the kind of travel
for which it is desired. If the Gov
ernor of New Hampshire can get
000,000 visitors to come to the State
during the year and leave $10 apiece
he has provided for the spending o
310,000,000 within the State during
the summer months. Who can esti
mate the amount of money which
would be spent in New York State's
lake and mountain region if this State
only had a system of Improved high
ways and a Governor as heartily in in.

or, of New Hampshire? Would not

the summer the sum of $60,000,000, as

ITtlng Improved Machinery.
Improved machinery and new meth
ods were Introduced In Massachusetts
last year, reducing the cost and in
creasing the efficiency of the roads.
Formerly gravel roads were resur
faced by hand. The gravel would be
spread to a depth of from three to six
inches. Really a new road would be
built. This would require months of
packing, and the roads would not" be
in good condition untiT this process
was somewhat completed. Now a ma
chine is used for distributing gravel.
The new treatment can be givenfor
the small cost of from $10 to $15 a
mile. The machine is used also for
spreading sand. On the surface oi
macadam roads the sand is bettei
binding material than the dust from
the stone, for it is not so liable to be
blown off by winds. With a machine,
a cubic yard of sand can be distribut
ed In a minute and a half. The com
mission has also introduced a system
for using the road material which is
near at hand in all towns. In the case
of heavy clay roads the plan has been
tried of digging out the centre to a
depth lower than the frost will reach.
The cut is made gradually less toward
the sides, so that there is a V shaped
trench. This is filled , with coarse
stones or stones from useless stone
walls in the vicinity, to a depth of
about eighteen inches in the centre
and six or eight inches at the sides.
The best material which Is conveni
ently near is used for covering. If
rrnnfl ' tto T70I i 3 Tint- n r Ho ll 1 ll on
earth is put on. It will work down on
ly part way, leaving a practical drain
at the bottom. Such a road is not
acted upon by frost, and the cost, va
ries from $500 to $1500 & mile, probab
ly not averaging $1000, while the-cost
of macadam is from $5000 to $10,000
i mile. From twenty-five to thirty
miles of this rough 4 stone road have
been built in Massachusetts this year.
Bnried Two Cats In Cemetery.
The little village of Parkville, on the
Hartford road, a few miles north' of
Baltimore, is agog over the discovery
of the fact that two cats are. buried in
the. churchyard of Hiss Methodist
Episcopal Church, beside the grave of
the late Theodore H.. Rice, husband of
Mrs. Sarah Rice, who now resides on
Central avenue, this city. To add to
the excitement created by the discov
ery, the church trustees accused Mrs.
Rice of burying the cats there with
her own hands, and she does not deny

"Honest John'' Corbett the veteran
city , jailer, has probably arrested as
-many - criminals In' his time and en
gaged In as many desperate fights as
any; man in the police department.
Last night while seated In the police
station he told of one of the first burg
lars he ever arrested in Seattle.
"In thos,e days," said Corbett, "we
didn't have any uniforms, or anything
like that. I was walking a beat away
down where the t Grant street bridge
Is now.. I saw a burglar, as I be
lieved, with a bundle under his arms.
I took after him, and he ran.
.."The tide flats were just as muddy
then as they are now, and that thief
ran out into the mud. s. The tide was
clear out. I didn't want to get al
over mud, so I shot a few. times at the
burglar. ; t shot away all the shells
I had and missed" every time. I quit .

A LOVELY COMPLEXION
New York L,ady Prores That Every Wo
man May Hare It by Using
Cutlcura Soap. ' .
Mrs. R. Reichenberg, wife of the well
known jeweller of 146 .Fulton St., New
York, says: "I had a friend who was just
ly proud of her complexion. When asked
what gave her such a brilliant and lovely
complexion, she replied, 'A healthy
woman can be sure of a fine skin if she
will do as I do, use plenty of Cuticura Soap
and water. . She insisted that I follow her
example, which I did with speedy convic
tion. I find that. Cuticura Soap keeps the
skin soft, white, and clear, and prevents
redness and roughness."
Dog Cemetery a Failure.
All Souls day in Paris revealed the
fact that the dog cemetery, estab

A species of sheep common in Syria
is so encumbered by the weight of its
tail, that the shepherds fix a piece of
thin board to the under part, where it
s not covered with thick wool, to pre
vent it from being torn by the bushes,
etc. Some have small wheels affixed to
acilitate the dragging of these boards
after them. The tail of a common sheep
cf this sort usually weighs fifteen
pounds or upward, while that of a large
'species after, being well fattened will
weigh fifty pounds.
