Whitehead & Co, MADE MUCH MONEY CHARLATAN FLEECED DUPES IN ALL PARTS OF COUNTRY. La rge Fortune Garnered from the Credulous in Three Years Love Powders and Magic Breast plates in Demand. Nearly 200 witnesses, representing 37 states, appeared In the United States district court at Baltimore to testify fo. the government at the trial of "Dr." Theodore White, charged with using the mails to defraud. There were present 17 pretty typewriters, who were kept busy hy "Dr." White In conducting the correspondence inci dent to -. immense business he had oetablis.. ! concocting love powders. mauuTac ving magic breastplates and dispensing diplomas conferring the degree of "h. D. on the graduates, who had -:.dbl!shod their title to that degree by paying for "Dr." White's book, "R -ssings For All Mankind." The t. s in the court room were covered v. iti exhibits, a panful of the love powder and some specimens of the breastplates being displayed there. Assistn-t District Attorney Soper made the opening statement to the jury. Lt said that "Dr." White's spiritualistic and hypnotic mail order business had attained such propor tions that hie postage bill amounted to $l,00o a mouth, and that he had been obliged to purchase a horse and wagon to take his mail from tho post office. Mr. Soper said that "Dr." White had made a fortune during the three yoars he spent in the business. "You may get some idea of the magnitude of It," said Mr. Soper, "when I tell you that in one month 2,400 people, from Maine to California, each sent this man a dollar and a lock of hair in order to obtain a "life reading.' And every reading was identical. ; The same reading was sent to every per son who sent a dollar, and a husband and hia wife both of whom sent to 'Dr.' White for readings, were very much disgusted when they each re ceived the same reading." Among the spiritualistlo "stunts" aesenneu m one of tho pamphlets read by Mr. Boper was the following "Place an egg before the fire and watch it wjthous moving or ifttering a sound until nightfall. Then the egg will sweat blood, and when the spooky words 'A'ra cadabra are uttered a tempest will rise, and all the evil spir its wh'c-ii o-: eve. heard of since the world began will appear." The "Adam and Eve" charm was the one used to create love. Adam and Eve were represented by roots Adam was one root and Eve w13 the other. Mr. Soper read tho directions for their use to the jury. The roots should be placed in running water, ho said, and the words "Whom God hath joined together let no man put asun der" should be recited over them. Mr. Soper also described the "an cient Egyptian breastplate," contain ing the powders and prayers, and charged with "magic solar fluid." Traits of Norway's Queen. In a sketch of the new queen of Norway it is said that she is probably the slimmest woman in her dominion. Her waist measures but 17 inches and she is so ethereal in appearance that even in England, where the cult of thinness has as worshipers practical ly all the women of the kingdom and most of the men, she is called rather too frail and delicate in appearance. Queen Maud was the tomboy member of King Edward's family. She was the baby of the family and its bright est member as well. It was she who first nicknamed her brother, the late duke of Clarence, Collars and Cuffs, a name which chins to hjm through life. She called her oldest sister, the duchess of Fife now called the prin cess royal, her royal shynes-3, on ac count of that retiring lady's almost morbid dislike of appearing In public. And it was this merry princess who collected all the quoted sayings and doings of the royal family in a scrap book and labeled it "Things We Never Did or Said." Wise Girl. Now, there was a certain girl, and she had three wooers. The first wooer said she was the whole world to him, but she frowned upon his suit. The second wooer said she was the sun, moon and stars to him, but she bade him be on his way. "To me," said the third, "you are a young woman of agreeable man ners, with eyes that might be a lit tle bluer, with a nose that Is a wee bit puggy, and with a few freckles, and an annoying habit of blurting out your thoughts." She married the third wooer. Be ing pressed for an explanation of her conduct, she said: "My goodness! I think I was sensible. I married the only one that had courage enough to tell me of my faults before marriage, instead of waiting to throw them up to me afterward." Life. Distinctly Eligible. He came hurriedly from the parlor to the piazza. "Who was that handsome young man who Just left?" he asked. The fair girl smiled and blushed. "That was Harry Parker, pa," she said. "He has Just proposed to me, and he tells me that bis income is $15,000 a year." "Fifteen thousand a year at his age? Great Scott, what is he? A learned lawyer, an eloquent divine?" said the oid man. "No, father," she answered. "He Is a professional baseball player." - -. Gossips ' might appropriately be ned misfortune tellers. SOME CHICKEN RECIPES. Several More or Less Elaborate Dishes The Directions for the Same Given in Full. CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH RICE A teacupt'ul of rice, some good stock, 'one onion, salt and pepper, some cold ham and chicken, egg, breadcrumbs. Boil a teacupful of rice in some good stock and pound it in a mortar with an onion that has been cooked in but tcr, with salt and pepper, round sep arately in equal proportions cold ham and chicken; form this into cutlets; cover them with egg and bread crumbs and fry. Serve with a sharp sauce, CHICKEN LOAF. A chicken, two ounces of butter, pepper and salt, egg Boil a .chicken in as little water as possible until the meat can easily be ploked from the bones; cut it up fine; then put it back Into the saucepan with two ounces of butter and a sea soning of iepper end salt. Grease a square china mold, and cover the bottom with slices of bard boiled eggs; pour in the chicken, place a weight on it, and set aside to cool, when it will turn out. PRESSED CHICKEN. Two chick ens, boiled until the meat leaves the bones easily; then pull to pieces and chop fine, letting the liquor, in which they were cooked boil down until only a cupful remains. Add about one-half as much chopped ham as chicken; roll two soda crackers, pour the stock over, seasoning highly. Mix well together, put in "a deep, long pan, pressing down hard with the hand. Fold a cloth sev eral times, put over the top, and put on a weight. It will slice nicely if prepared the day before using. CHICKEN RISSOLES. Some rem nants of fowl, ham and tongue, butter, a pinch of flour, white pepper, salt, nutmeg, parsley, eggs, a few drops of lemon juice, flour, water, three pinches of sugar. Mince very finely some remnants of fowls, free from skin, add an equal quantity of ham or tongue, as well as a small quantity of truffles. all finely minced; toss the whole into a saucepan with a piece of buttei mixed with a pinch of flour; add white pepper, salt and nutmeg to taste, as well as a little minced parsley; stir In, off the fire, the yolks of one or twe eggs beaten up with a few drops oi lemon juice, and lay the mixture on a plate to cool. Make a paste with some flour, a little water, two eggs, a pinch of salt, and two or three of sugar; roll it out to the thickness of a penny piece, stamp it out in round pieces three Indies In diameter; put a piece of the above mince on eaxh, then fold (hem up, fastening the edges by mois tening them with water. Trim th rissoles neatly with a fluted cutter, dir. each one in beated up egg, and fry a golden color in hot lard. CHICKEN TERRAPIN Place a stewpan on the fire with a small tea cup of water in it; when it boils add the flesh of tender boiled chicken, picked fine. Mix smooth a quarter of a pound of butter with a tablespoonful of flour. When the chicken has boiled three minutes add the buttei and flour, stirring it all the time. Season with salt, cayenne pepper, a small blade of mace and half a pint of good sherry wine. Let it simmer over a slow fire ten minutes, then add a gill of milk and serve in a hot dish. CREAM CHICKEN. Four chickens, three cans of mushrooms, four sweet breads. Boil chicken till tender and cut as for salad, removing all skin; boil and chop sweetbreads. Mix chick en, sweetbreads and mushrooms, and bake in alternate layers with bread crumbs, seasoned with pieces of but ter and cream dressing given below. This is sufficient for 20 people. CREAM DRESSING. One and one- half pints of cream, one grated onion, three tablespoonfuls of flour, four ta blespoonfuls of ' butter. Heat cream, rub flour in butter and put in the cream; cook till it thickens; take off and stir in onion. Put the first layer of chicken, sweetbreads and mush rooms in a dish and seaeon each of the layers with cayenne pepper and salt. Let the top layer be of bread crumbs. Chicago Tribune. Potato Salad. In a new book, "The TJp-to-Date Waitress," by Janet McKenzle Hill, several new salads are described. A tomato salad Du Barry sounds at tractivo. Peel a good-sized tomato for each person to be served, cut a piece from the top and with a teaspoon scoop out a portion of the pulp. Sprinkle inside with salt and sot up side down in the refrigerator. When ready to serve fill the tomato shells with cold cooked cauliflower and set on heart leaves of lettuce. Put a tablespoonful of mayonnaise on each tomato. Furniture Stains. Have ready three pieces of woolen cloth: dip one into linseed oil, rub the spot briskly, wet the second with alco hol and apply to oily surface, rubbing quickly, as too much alcohol will de stroy tho varnish, and finally polish with the third cloth, moistened with oil or furniture polish. Another way is to use equal parts of vinegar, sweet oil, and spirits of turpentine; shake all well together in a bottle; apply with a flannel cloth and rub dry with old silk or linen. To Polish Windows. For cleansing windows nothing else is equal to clear vinegar. It gives a most brilliant polish. Rub It on with a soft cloth, dry with another, and polish with chamois skin. nixing Mustard. When mixing mustard, always use milk Instead of water, and the mus tard will not dry up so quickly. To Remove Varnish. Alcohol will remove varnish from fabrics. How many people fumigate money that Is given to them GIVES BARRY HONOR REAL FATHER OF THE NAVY, SAYS DRISCOLL. Though Facts Seem to Bear Out This Assertion, John Paul Jones Will Always Be American Naval Hero. If anyone had to answer the ques tion "right off the bat," who was "father of tho American navy," no doubt the reply would be John Paul Jones. No other man who ever com manded a ship in the navy has been accorded such honors as has been paid to this daring Scotchman who cast his lot with the American colonies and fought the English with so much gal lantry. Theet honors are such us should be paid to the greatest Ameri can sailor, and no doubt many of our people believe that John Paul Jones is the greatest of our sailors. Repre sentative Driscoll, of New Yrk, rises to dispute this assumption. He says that the honor of being the "father of the American navy is due Commodore Barry." After many years the United States has determined to honor this of ficer and has provided that a monu ment shall be erected to him. Dris coll in a congressional address has eu logized Barry and placed him on a pinnacle above that of Jones. Dris coll has this to say to prove that Barry is entitled to the first place in our naval annals. "At the breaking out of the war of the revolution he was master of the Black Prince, the finest merchant ship in America. She was purchased by the first congress, armored for war, and made the first battleship of the first fleet, under the first commodore. and named the Alfred, after the father . of the Euglfsh navy. He won the first naval victory of the war In the con tinental service, and returned the first prize captured from the enemy in com mand of the Lexington, which was named after the first battle of the rev olution, and was the first ship that bore the continental flag to victory on the ocean. During the last three years of the revolution he was the first offi cer of the navy. He fought the last battle of the war 'n command of the Alliance, the last and best ship of the continental navy. He was appointed in 1794, and continued first in com mand until he died, in 180" He points out that John Paul Jones aftor his victory over tho Serapis never returned to this country, but re mained in Europe and received high honors from France and Russia, while Barry remained in the service from the beginning to the end. Of course, the record of Barry la splendid and he is entitled to all the honors that can be paid him, but there is some thing in the record of John Paul Jones that appeals to every person with blood in hia veins. He was a man that "did things," and no matter what oth ers may have done the brilliancy of his exploits wore such as to excite the admiration of the American people for all time. Source of His Inspiration. The eminent lecturer, Dr. L. Carter, self-made, and not wholly unconscious of the fact, was addressing the Som erville Y. M. C. A. "My dear young people," he began, "let me refer briefly to the humble auspices under which my start in life was made. Without a dollar in my pocket, and with no worldly posses sions of consequence, my Indomitable nature and an inborn determination to utilize to the fullest advantage my abilities constituted my entire assets But, even with thi3 modest beginning, what do you suppose was the thing I first sought that which, at the very outset of my career, I strove most earnestly to attain?" For one second did an awe-stricken silence hover over the audience, as the speaker paused to allow the sig nificance of these impressive words to permeate the youthful understand lug. Then, In a spontaneous outburst of juvenile enthusiasm, came the an swer, as of one voice, "Milk I" Bos ton Herald. Some Cures for Insomnia. mere are several common sense ways of obtaining sleep, says the World's Work. One of them is the application of cold wet cloths to the back of the head and neck. Tlils treatment will not be followed by a reaction if it is continued for a num ber of minutes, and it often works surprisingly well. Another way of solving the prob lem is to soak the feet in a hot bath until the veins become dilated with blood ; or the whole body up to the hips may be given a hot soak. With some people, a two or three minute hip bath is the most effective rem edy. Others find help in a few slow exercises, which do not jar or excite the system but simply bring some fa tigue to the big muscles of the trunk and limbs. Friction of the skin, es pecially of the lower part of the body, is another means. A Cinch. "Do you think I could get your chum to marry me?"

A VETERAN OF THE SPANISH WAR Expresses Pe-m-na Is a Tonic Especially Adapted to the Prevention and Re lief of All Catarrhal Ailments Due to the Vicissitudes of Climate and Exposure Experienced by the Soldier. An Old Soldier's Praise. Mr. F.R. Cox, Center Oak, Pa., writes: "1 wn takr-n with hemorrhages of tho stomach and had from one to three a year. "The doctors said my etomach conld not be cured, and It was only a question of how soon one of these spells would kill me, and I was given up eeveral times, as they had no hopes for me.

"I have tried it for months and am only too glad to acknowledge :t as a true, loyal standoy In times of trouble. I do net hesitate to recommend it to ail." 1. T.

I took no other medicine but Peruna, and it accomplished all. You told me In your first letter that you thought Peruna would cure me and it has. I am 6eventy-three years old and can attend to my business aa usu&i." f er.ma Unnecessary Fear of Lightning. There is something so intangible about the bolt from the clouds that tho reasoning faculties of certain people seem to be suspended during thunder storms. They shrink from the mys terious power even though it may be shown that more people die from the bite of the common house cat than from lightning. Such has been the case in the past. Another reason for the common fear of lightning is our un familiarlty with It. If thunder storms happened every day of the year we should probably lose our fears. Tuber culosis kills more men than war and we do not spend the millions for fight ing it that we do in prepnring coast defenses and erecting great navies. People do not like to go to war be cause thoy may get killed, but they run risks just as great in insanitary condi tions at home to which they give no thought. "Good English." In discussing editorially the art of writing good English, the New York Evening Post asserts, what we may easily believe, that the. fault of most manuscript submitted to its editors i3 not erratic punctuation, grammatical blunders or improprieties. These are superficial vices. "The articles are clogged with words, all of them cor rect, half of them superfluous;" which recalls a passage In T'oswell's "John son:" "I took down Thomson," said Johnson, "and read aloud a large por tion of him and then asked: 'Is not this fine?' Shiels having expressed the highest admiration, 'Weli, sir,' said I, 'I have omitted every other line.' " Fixing the Stars. What is considered the most sensi ble and most symmetrical arrange ment for the stars In the union of the flag comes to the bureau of equipment of the navy from a woman In New York. The addition of the state of Oklahoma makes necessary a rear rangement of the stars, and instead of 45 there will be 46. The New York woman suggests that there be a row of seven stars at the top and another of seven at the bot tom of the union, with four rows of eight each intervening. Too Good to Lose. "Yes," she said, "I've been going to cooking school for nearly six months now, and, really, you'd be surprised if I were to tell you all I've learned. I could, for instance, go into the kitchen and get up a good wholesome meal vithout using- a bit of meat of any kind.-and " "Darling!" he wildly cried, "will you be mine?"

LESSON HE EASILY LEARNED' At Least on One Occasion George Con vinced Wlfey That He Could Eay "No." "I dined at tho Carlton with the Howard Goulds In London," a globe trotter said. "Afterwards we took our coffee on the raised platform of the foyer, where the orchestra plays and where you get an excellent view ot the smart London world. Mrs. Gould entertained us with the story of hei last balloon trip. She had stayed up much longer and gone much farther than had been intended. " 'The trip,' she said, ruefully, 'was a little too successful.' "'Oh,' said I, 'can anything be too successful?' "'A temperance sermon was once too successful,' Mrs. Gould said. "Then she told us how a woman preached one morning a temperance sermon to her husband, who was suf fering from the effects of the night before. 'The great trouble with you, George. the woman said, 'is that you vauuut y u. iru ro say -no ; George, and you will have fewer head- acue.-j. vau juu mi me uuvo a iuuo money this morning?'
