In a never-ending, restless tide, a million gypsies surge to and fro across Europe. From east to west tlu'y mi grate at the Iieginning of summer, and west to east in the fall. Nowhere are they wanted, everywhere are they eyed with suspicion, but ,still ever.v year they wander, and the authorities of the countries they cross dread their coming and are relieved when they go. There is always trouble at tho frontiers. lli‘re the wanderers are stopped, questioned and often Impris oned as vagrants. l!ut there is noth ing to do but finally let them go, and they invariably return the next year. An effort to aid and protect these gypsies i.s being made by a Swiss clergyman, Uev. H. I'^cuyer.

Ilow many of us know tliat the post office be;4an to exist in the year 103-\i! Sp.cial messen.gers and the romtnon carrii'r were till then the only means of communiciitiou. Afti r that date a horse poHt, car ried letters along the gnat road-; into tlie different parts of Enghuid, those who lived near these roads luurying out at the sound of tho nostman’s horn. And tho remote byv’ays were not neglected. I If one desired to send a h tter to | some remote town in Yorkshire, one went to Ludgate, then to the Hell Sov- age In, close by. and there intrusted it to the carrier for the country in question, The messenger from I.on- don would not penetrate into byways, Kach country had Its fyoteni of foot- posts, which linked the outlying dis tricts with its chief towns and with the great high roads. The I.,ondon courier, pressing on to his terminus, was relieved of packets for remote regions by the local postman, who. In turn, passed them on from hand to hand to their destination. In some what similar fashion, though less reg ularly and smoothly, letters inland I were carried over the long and tedi- I ous journey to the hands for which I they were laboriously Indited. Who We Are. There are many people who think that the term “American embassy” ' should bt^ changi'd to "United States embassy” because tho latter sounds more dignified and be/ltting this great I country. They do not realiza, however, ! tliat tho "United Stales” may mean tho United States of Colombia or tlie United States of Brazil. As a matter of fact, wo are Americans because we live in the United States of America. In Spain, however "American” means I a peivon who lives in South America. The Spaniards cull the people of this country ‘ North Americans” or "yau- ke«‘s.” The latter term was most popular just before tho late disturb ance between the United States and Spain—with the addition of “pig.”— Troy Record. American Style. New Yorkers are so accustomed ta F*'eij;ig things done in their own waj that they never slop to think ho\f they are done until somebody else makes a virtue of doing them that way. Two American women who had always accepted everything at home as a universal custom were astonished to see iu a I.ondon drug store win dow this notice; “American drugs and drinks. Par eels fa.steiied American style.” They wi re sutliciently interested to step in and imiuiro what the Ameri can stylo was? “Witii rubber bands,” said the cleric, and deftly snapped a band around a bottle in the familiar way. "13ut how else would you fasten it?" they asked. "With sealing w'ax,” he said. "No conservative English firm would dream of using anytiiing else. It ia only the stores that make a bid for tha American trade that will UPfi rubber bands.” ..Prepared for shipment 1 ntiosshrd Prepared for shipment lit lots fron; liiOO |o 10,000 lit jier tb<>ii.>iaDd: over HMtOO lit $1.00 piT (liuiisand f. <).

If a reason is sought for the hold which beer drinking has on people It may be found in part in tho ditTlculty of getting water to drink. That also gives the soda fountains business. The New York Tribune has published a letter from a citizen of New Jersey who complained that he could not get a drink of water in New York city. Ills complaint ia just, and it applies to every town and city. The person who wishes a cooling draft must pay money, five cents at least, for it, and he can rarely get water even then. Various attempts to meet the lack have failed, and the discovery of the gorm theory has contrived to render the failure apparently final. ; New Gar den Seed Flower Seed Onion Sets Maine Red Bliss Irish Cobblers Seed Oats Rape Seed Dr. Hess Stock & Poultry Powder S M SCHULTZ PHONE 55 OFTEN What a Child Needs Most.
