A sickly looking man came into the bfRoe o. a vWaTP physician nnd snii Liih\ he wasn't teclit-g Very b?iart aul wanted something to "kinder straighten him out." After he had described his symptoms which did not indicate anything at all serious, :\e physician asked him if he had been taking anything for his trou bles. "Well, no; at least none to speak of," was the reply. "I heard that the extract of dandeline was good for troubles like mine, so I took three pints of that, but it didn't seem to do much good. Then I got me two bottles of Smith's Healing Compound and a box of Green's Sure Cure Pills ? and took 'em, and I kinder think they helped me some." "Did you take anything else?" ask ed the physician. "Yes; my wife fixed me up a mess of poke-berry and calumus and mul llen and rue and boneset and tansy, and a few other yarbs, and I took that for a while, until one of my neighbors sent me over something he'd bought the receipt of from a gypsy woman. Then I didn't feel so well, so I changed off to some stuff I bought of a peddler, and a little quinine twice a day. I ain't taking anything now but a little of elixir of a hundred roots and some bitters. I ain't gaining very fast, so I thought I'd come in and see if you thought I needed anything else."?Judge's Li brary. A Sage Contribution. One day recently there entered the office o. a Philadelphia real estate man a tattered and forlorn girl of ' 14 cr thereabout, who sidled up to his desk with a memorandum book in her hand. Ordinarily the Philadelphian is the politiest of persons, but this day he was so busy that he knew not which way to turn. So, with a swift glance from the corner of his eye, he said rather sharply, "Well, what do you want?" "Mister, please buy a chance on our go-cart," pleaded the girl hesi tatingly. "Your go-cart!" repeated the real estate man, who is a bachelor. "What on earth can I do .vith a go-cart, even if I should get it?" "Oh, you won't get It, breathless ly came from the girl. "Please buy a chance?"Philadelphla Ledger. The Ultra Microscope. The ultra microscope is a recent de vice of science. By its aid It is ex pected that many micro-organisms which hitherto defied observation will be detected. As the classification of microbes has advanced, biolog'sts have incllnea to the' conclusion that many must still remain unknown, too small to be perceived with any instru ment hitherto in use. The new apparatus is the invention of two Frenchmen, Cotton and .\ion ton. It involves no change in the.ex isting arrangement of lenses. It is the system of lighting that is revolu tionized. The ray is used at right angles to the axis of the instrument, instead of coinciding with it. Thus the light sweeps across the objective parallel with its plane. ^ By this means it is said that many i particles so small that they have de fled detection under the most power ful glasses become visible as brilliant points. It is a new world, enthusias tic microscopists say, that is opened to scientific study. Italians Like Picture Shows.

The remainder would be available for food and any little luxuries that might be possible. In order that the training may be as practicable as possible it is nec essary that the time occupied in at tending to baby in most homes should not be overlooked in the pro" gram of the experimental home.
