Gay Prepared for Food Sold in the Tropics. THE HABIT WORLD WIDE Chemists Analyze Specimens of This Remarkable Earth-Yellow Races Particularly Fond of lt-A Part of the Congo Diet and Not Disdained in America. Chemists of Copenhagen have just heen anailyzing specimens of the earth that is eaten hy natives in a district on the upper Congo Uiver. One speci men, of the color of yellow ochre and easily reduced to a fine powder be tween the finders, contained silicic acid, oxide of aluminum, soda, traces of iron and a small quantity of or ganic matter. The second specimen, gray in color and resembling ordinary clay, was composed of materials much like those in the other except that it contained no soda and more organic matter. Crains of line sand were found In the yellow, but not in the gray specimens. A search for bacteria gave no re sult. Only the iron and the soda could be assimilated by the eaters of these substances. The yellow earth came from the coffee plantations at Ban gala, but the origin of the gray earth is not known. Not a few of the Con go tribes eat considerable quantities of earth. The habit of earth eating prevails in most tropical lands, and is ?particn larly widespread among the blacks of Africa and the natives of the East In dies. Where it occurs among civilized nations it is regarded as a symptom of a vitiated appetite. Humboldt studied - the practice among the aborigines of America. It is ocasionally observed in Europe. Lnsch says that German quarrymen spread clay on slices of bread and eat it with evident relish; also that among barbarous peoples pregnant women are especially addicted to the habit of eating clay. The practice in Guatemala ls allied with religious superstition. During some of the religious ceremonies the faithful devour statuettes made of clay. In l'ersia a certain kind of earth is considered a delicacy and an fleure an reiish. lu the Malay Archipelago ampob earth is sold at the stores. The prac tice is widely spread in China, New Caledonia and New Guinea. Those who are habitually addicted to it are said to be more liable than others to con sumption, inflammation of the liver and anaemia. The testimony of many travelers in the Orient is that the yellow races are especially addicted to the harmful practice. In Java and Sumatra the clay used undergoes a preliminary preparation for consumption. According to Mr. Ilekmeyer, who is officially in charge of the distribution of drugs throughout the Dutch East Indies, the clay is mixed with water to reduce it to a paste and the sand and other hard substances are removed. The clay is then formed into small sakes of table s about as thick as a lead pencil and baked in an iron sauce pan. When the tablet emerges from this process it resembles a piece of dried pork. The Javanese frequently eat small figures roughly modelled from clay which resembles animals or little men turned out in our pastry shops. The earth which is most In favor in China for eating purposes is a white clay containing minute bits of silica, but without organic remains. The Anna mese consider the sticky and savorless earth which they eat as a great deli cacy. It may be said, on the whole, thal there is no nutritive principle in any appreciable quantity in the indgestible earthcakes consumed by Asian 01 other earth eaters.

The Great Band of Elk Winters in the Lowlands of Jackson's Hole. The largest herd of wild animals in the United States, and probably in the world, is the great band of elk which winters in the lowlands of Jackson's Hole district, Wyoming. There are. at this writing, estimated to be sonic 32,000 head of elk in the band. The men who have given this estimate are well-known ranchers and cattlemen, or cowboys and owners of sheep and stock ranges. Their estimate comes pretty close to being a corree: one. During the severe winters in Wyo ming, when the elk, driven by the bit ter cold and heavy snows, approach almost to their' very doors, they have unusual opportunities for observing this great herd of magnificent ani mals. All the elk in Jackson's Hole dis trict are carefully protected by the scattered residents of the country. At present the herd is under the con stant surveillance of two deputy game wardens, while district game wardens watch the band whenever any portion of it strays into the district over which they have authority. In Uic summer time the herd is widely scat tered over an extent of country the radius of which is more than 500 miles, , embracing a territory of virginal beau ty and primeval grandeur. Of those elk which enter Colorado a large percentage is killed, while the few which stray into Utah fall ai the hands of the Uintah Ute 'ndians. The elk which "?ander too far from home are not killed in the summer, hut in the late fall. By far the larger portion of the herd which is guarded in the winier in Jackson's Hole passes the summer in the timbered heights in the Tetnn, Gros Ventre, and Shoshone Mountains, the Big Horn Basin, the Yellowstone National Park, and even in the free range near the se tlement of Jackson itself. One gentleman last summer counted a herd of 800 elk within two and a half miles of Jackson. One on Senator Hoar. Senator Hoar was the unconscious hero of an incident which marked the commencement exercises at the Sta e University of Iowa. The Senator de livered his address in a tent, and his manuscript threatened to blow away. Col. George IL P.urnett of the Unit ed States Army borrowed a knife from the Rev. Dr. (?eorge L. Cady, chap lain of the university. This, as an im provised paper weight, the Colonel placed upon Senator Hoar's manu script. At the close of a particularly eloquent period, Mr. Hoar's hand came in contact with the knife, and he thrust it into his trousers pocket. The audience having noticed the inci dent, burst into laughter. The speak er said something about the "jester never seeing the point of a joke." and proceeded with the address. Later the Senator was reproached by Dr. Cyrus Xor.hrop. president of the University of Minnesota, for "preaching honesty to the boys ol' Iowa and then setting them such an exam ple of misappropriation." Then the af fair was explained and Senator Hoar drew forth the "borrowed" knife and a knife case as well. The latter con tained an exact duplicate of the instru ment lie had taken. Senator Hoar had carried the dupli cate of the borrowed knife continuous ly ever since he received it, forty yen.rs ago, from his wife.-Indianapo lis News. Felt His Part. Southeastern Virginia is scarred with deep ditches that give the farm ers great trouble. Last spring a poor fanner lost his wife and only horse just as the plowing season opened. De termined to have his fields in readiness, he harnessed himself to a light plow i and bade his daughter drive. All went well for a dozen or so of furrows, but just as he prepared for a ; trip through the turnip beds he slipped r and went down into the mire at the ? twelve-foot bottom of one of the . ditches. Scrambling out, wet, muddy and an gry, he was in no moods?b answer properly his daughter's gentle inquiry: "I hope you're not hurt, father?" "No. gosh darn it," he spluttered; "but it 'twasn't your fault I wasn't killed! Why don't you attend to your your work! Why the devil didn't you say 'Whoa?'

His Business Idea had Preponderance j in Trouting Time. j "Along about this time o' year," i said the man with the loud cigar butt, "I alway think of my Uncle Job fil lister and the big business head he | had. The preponderance of the busi ness idea in my I'ncle Job was great. I think of it most about this time o' year because I lived with him on the farm when I was a boy, and he sai to me one day: " 'Absalom. I s'pose you know them early 'taters is to be planted to-day. I guess we'd better get at 'em.' "I know all about that 'tater plant ing web enouch, but I had just dug a lot o' tishworins and was all ready to go down to the creek to try the trout. So I said: " 'Yes, Uncle Job. But the trout are biting tremendous, so folks are saying.' " 'ls that so ' said Uncle Job, bland ly. 'Well, then, my boy,' I s'pose you've been digging fishworms?' " 'Yes, uncle,' said I feeling good. " 'And you've got your pole and line al! tixed ready, too, I s'pose?' said he. "Yes, uncle.' said I, and 1 could just as good as see myself on the creek tuat minute and feel the trout biting. M 'Creek ain't too high, think?' said Uncle Job. '? 'Never was in better shape for lishing, everybody says,' said I. '* 'Well.* said Uncle Job. thinking it over, 'I s'pose ii ain't going to make much dift'ence if only one of us plants 'titers to-day.' " 'Not a blt,' said I, 4if lt doesn't make any difference to you.' " 'No, it don't,' said Uncle Job. 'No difference to me, at all. You're sure you've got worms enough, though, my boy?' said he. " 'Oh. plenty,' said I, starling to get my tishpole. " 'And you're sure the trout are bit ing good?' said .Uncle Job?* " "They never bit better!' said I. "'All right, then,' said Uncle Job. That being the case, I guess I'll take the pole and the worms and go down to the creek and see what luck I'll have. Yon just go on planting 'taters is if 1 wasn't heve, and get in as many is you can. for lt's a good day for planting.' and he took the worms and he pole and went fishing. "I was a little set back, of course, but I couldn't help but admire the predonderance of the business idea in Uncle Job. It wasn't fishing that he rared so much about. It was the get ting in of the 'taters, and you will aotice that he did not make up his mind to go fishing until he found I could get alon;: with the planting all right. So along about this time o' year I always think of my I.incle Job Pillister and the big business head he had." Tact. Stebbins laid down his napkin with a nervous hand. "My dear." said he, "I shall be de tained at the ellice :o-night." Mrs. Stebbins glared at him across the breakfast table. "You will be home by <5 o'clock, slr," she sternly elocuied, looking him right straight in ihe eye. Stebbins smoothed out his napkin. "Now. look here," he remonstrated. 'If I don't work overtime, I shan't be able to alford you that new hat." Mrs. Stebbins's face softened. "Well, then, don't wake the neigh bor up by singing as you did last time." she remarked, relentingly. A Bargain Spoiled. "A feller offered me a thousand dol lars fer this calf." "Why didn't ye take it?" "I would, only the keeper from th? asylum come along jest then an* took che feller away.", Eyes Hungry Only. Bobby ate his dinner with so good an appetite that by the time desert was on the table he could eat no more. He sat silent and sorrowful, and look ed at the dainties on his plate. "Why don't you eat, darling?" said his mother. "Oh mother," he cried, "because only my eyes are hungry.-Exchange. Wanted Bacon and Greens. "Looky here," said Brother Dickey, to a backsliding member of his flock who had imbided too freely, "don't you want ter go ter heaven?" "Yes, sub-I sho' does."

M Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, di: courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born 1 afflicted with weak kid neys. If the child urin ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when die child reaches an age when it should bq able tc control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of' the difficulty is kidney trouble d the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
