In Persln and in Japan pipes about the size of a baby's thimble are used. providing two draws, a great waste of Ume. It is the Chinaman, however, who in smoking gets endless work out of practically nothing at all. He carries a little box about twice the size of on ordinary silver cigarette ease. This is half filled with wnter. In one end is a removable tiny tube to serve as pipe.! At the other end is the nlnestem. First of all, he remove the tube and blows through It to re move nil blockage. Then he fumbles through his awkward clothes, seareh- me for tobacco and produces a bit of rae In which it is wrapped. ' Carefully he extracts a wad of tobac co, puts away his rag and slowly plugs the tube, which holds perhaps the tenth part of an ordinary cigarette, But he never has a"hy matches. So be baa to borrow or hunt out a brown naDer stem and light it it Blows for a long time and can be puff ed into flame again-he gives a long draw: - slowly, appreciatively, tho smoke oozes from between bis Celes tial lips; he spits; he draws again and gets email result The smoka is.over. He removes the tube, blows through it, and the proceeding begins all ovet again. - ., . , ' V ; A Sovereign Remedy. James Bond, of Windsor, N. C.wrltes: ''This is to certify that I hare need Worthlngton's Fsmily Remedy in my family for more than 40 years, and for Cramps, Colic, Cholera Morbus, and Diarrhoea, hare foubd it to be a sorer GUTICURA PILLS ForCooteiJCleaisiis i!BM and SMn In Cases of Itching;, Burning, Scaly. Rumours, And for Renovating and: En-rIching-th8NBIood. - The Best and Most Economical Yet Compounded; Cuticura Resolvent Pilla (chocolate coated) are the product ot twenty-five Sears' practical laboratory experience i the preparation ot remedies tor the treatment of humours of the skin, scalp and blood, with loss of hair, and are confidently believed to be superior to all other alteratives as well as liquid blood - purifiers, however expensive, while enabling all to enjoy the curative properties of precious medicinal agents - without consuming needless expenses and often Injurious portions of alcohol in which such medicines hare hereto fore been preserved. Cuticura Pills are alterative, antisep tic, tonlo and digestive, and beyond question the purest, sweetest, most suc cessful and economical blood and skin purifiers, humour cures and tonic-digestives yet compounded. Medium adult dose, one pill. Complete external and Internal treat, ment for every humour may now be had for one dollar, consisting of Cuti cura Soap, to cleanse the skin, Cuticura Ointment, to heal the skin, and Cuti cura Hesol vent Pills, to cool and cleanse the blood. A single set, costing bnt one dollar, is often sufficient to cure tho most torturing, disfiguring skin, scalp" and blood humours, eczemas, rashes. Itchings and irritations, with loss of. nair, irum lniancy lo age, wnen pny sicians and all other remedies fail. Britain's Poatal Banks. The fact is odd that the post office savings banks of Great Britain are technically insolvent Their deposits at tho end of tho year were $700,000, 000, their assets only about $670,000,- 000. - . - Nobody worries about a little thing like that; the government is responsi ble. Of course the discrepancy rose from the high prices the department was forced to pay for national bonds before the Boer war. The lowering of tho rate of interest allowed is-an ob vious cure. The postal banks were authorized in 1861, and nearly ten millions were de posited the first year. Some later de velopments are curious. By the "slip" system a sum so small as 2 cents can be .deposited. Deposits can be with drawn by telegraph.. School savings banks ore recognized, but are not very successful owing to tho superior at tractions of sweets as a medium of in vestment A feature of the postal banks la that through their aeency depositors can buy small fractional portions of gov ernment bonds.
