This strange residence was built

Persons informed that a ':.i;e
peanut oil factory has been erected
at Norfolk, Yd., are apt ta ask what
the oil is used for. It seems that it
is already sold as a table oil, a base
for soaps, and as a lubricant for con
fectioners, makers of plug tob ceo
and maeninists. I'eauut meal will
be refined for invalids, and the
coarser material pressed into cakes
for cattle. The humble peanut may
yet restore wealth to the unproduc
tive fields of Virginia and other
parts of the south.
Mrs. Hirdie Morgan, who has re
cently made formal application to
enter as a soldier under the colors
of the nation and the state of Col
ordo, has no intention of withdraw
ing her application. At the office of
Mayor MoMurry she reiterated he
intention of joining the militia. Iu
a, joking manner one of the promi
nent city officials said that she
would make an attractive appearance
in the garb of a militia man. She
replied that not only was it her in
tention to become a soldr but more
serious consideration of the matter
had led her to believe that a com
paDy of women would prove an im
portant adjunct tothe national guard
of the state.

According to a New York tlorist,
the sale of Easter flowers amounted
to more than $200,000 in that city
alone. Azalias, ascension lilies and
bulbous flowers, such as tulips,
hyacinths and lilies of the valley,
are mostly sought. The prices are
very high, for, according to the
florist, iu no other business is Hie
connection between demand and
price so apparent. Sometimes there
issuch a glut in the flower market
that it becomes necessary to sell
surplus stock to street venders. It
often happens that 10,000 roses are
sold in a day for $10, and twenty
four hours later, when the demand
suddenly renews, that number would
bring $1000.
Let Me Speak to You
About Tooth Brushes.
You have probably bought some high priced Tooth Brushes that
were not what they were represented After using one a short time it
loosened up and shed bristles in your mouth. We do not make brushes,
but we sell them an ' guarantee them. If they shed you get your money
back. We believe this i-, fair. That's the way we do business.

The Queen of Greece is looked
upon as a mother. Her lastes are
simple, and her disposition must
kindly. She has never got over her
own great sorrow the death of her
eldest daughter, the Graud Duchess
Paul, whose departure from Athens
to be married was more liks a fun
eral than the preface to a bridal.
All Athens turned out to wish her
jc V. But the faces of the bride and
mother were blistered with tears
This being thought a bad omen, the
air was tilled with lamentation The
princess was entreated by the
women to turn back and wait for
some propitious time to begin her
journey. liut tne princess was
married and was killed in less than
two years by a fall from a carriage
that was going at a furious pace.
