Put This Stove in
Your Kitchen
It is wonderfully
convenient to do
kitchen work on a
stove that's ready
at the instant wanted,
and out of the way the
moment you're done.
Such a stove is the New
Perfection Wick Blue
Flame Oil Cook-Stove.
By using it you avoid the
continuous overpowering
heat of a coal fire and cook
with comfort, even in dog
days. The
NEW PERFECTION
Wiek Blue Fl? Oil Cook-Stove
is so constructed that it cannot add perceptibly to the heat of
a room; the flame being directed up a retaining chimney to
the stove top where it is needed for cooking. You can
see that a stove sending out heat in but one di
rection would be preferable on a hot day to
a stove radiating heat in all directions. The
'New Perfection" keeps a kitchen uniformly
\ comfortable. Three s'-jes, fully warranted.

THE MALDEN' S CAT.
Meowing of the Feline Saved Cap
tain, Wife and Crew.
"There's one th'ng in which cats
and rats agree," said Captain Charles
W. Bates, of the Boston schooner
Maiden, as he wandered across the
floor of the Maritime Exchange, "and
that is. that they both will leave a
sinkine: ship. So it wasn't so much
of a surprise to me when the crew
of the Maiden grew a bit supersti
tious when our tabby leaped over
the rail with a piteous wail and sank
in about forty fathoms off the the
coast of Georgia.
"We'd been fifteen days out from
San Juan, bound for a Florida port,
but a gale drove us several hundred
[ miles further north than we had in
tended going, and when the Mai
den's pussy iea.ped to her death we
all had been guesssing for forty
eight hours what would happen to
our vessel.
"Lyig on her starboard beam
one moment and on her port the
next, with seas washing over us so
that we couldn't move across the
deck, the Maiden was acting crazy
enough for any shipload of deep sea
mariners. The night before the cat
v.ent free of the schooner's rail it
had a dream, to which my wife and
I can testify, for we were awakened
by the ghastly meowing of the fe

line as'she stood, with back up and
hair on end, at the foot end of our
bunk.
"What was still more strange,
both my wife and I had been dream
ing of a shipwreck when the cat
awakened us, and the ill omen was
so apparent that I told Mrs. Bates
to dress and I dressed myself. On
the watch I found Slmpkins, the
mr.te, and five members of the crew,
all working desperately to save the
Maiden which was wallowing in a
sea such as I had never seen be
fore.
"Matters kept growing worpe
every minute from the time I got on
deck, and it was shortly before dawn
that the cat went over the side. That
settled the crew and the men vho
had been working at the pumps,
with the water gaining on us every
m'nute, decided that I should or
der the boat lowered and cut away
from the Maiden. The schooner was
leaking like a sieve, and one might
as well have tried to pump the? At
lantic dry as to pump the Maiden
fr-je of the briny.
"Well, what happened to th?
schomer need not take long to tell.
She went down like a lump of lead
and we had barely time to get the
boat away before the topmasts dis
appeared under the water. My wife
and I and the crew of six drifted for
a dozen hours befoio a Far East
tramp bound for Savannah showed
her lights and stopped for us. We
were taken to Savannah where we
received every hospitality that could
b3 extended to as dreay a lot of
eight shipwrecked mariners, Includ
ing one woman, as ever drifted
around the coast.
"Will my wife go to sea again?
Well, I reckon yes. The next time
I get a ship you'll see her shipmates
with me, and she has told me that
we won't go to sea without a cat
either, for the meowing of the Mai
den's tabby undoubtedly saved our
lives."
Turks Objected to Horse's Names.
The horses belonging to the late
British Ambassador at Cnstantinople,
Sir Nicholas O'Connor, have been
sold by auction. The usual notice
was put. in the local press, but the
censor took exception as there were
horses in the list wi:h the names
Pasha. Selini and Ilarouu, which he
considered was offensive to Turks,
and the list had Lu appei-i without
the names.?London Telegraph.
Memorial of Adam.
April 1 was ma iked on old calen
dars as tLe "Memorial of Adam."
The orientals relate that Adam when
dying, chrrged his children to bury
his body, embalmed with myrrh, in
cense and cassia, in the cave of Al
Kanuz near Paradise. When they
quitted the place they were to con
vey his body to the center of the
earth, whence would come s:.ivation
to his posterity. This is said to
have been done by Noah and Melchi
Zvdek, who reburied him on the sac
red hill of, Cj lvary.
Lead Wool.
Hitherto it has been customary to
nake the joints for gas and water
pipes by first introducing strands of
hemp yarn into the socket, then fill
ing the space left wiih molten lead
and afterwards c. ..Iking the latter.
A more modern way is now provided
b> means of what is known as " lead
wool." The lead wooi consists of
the threads of virgin lead, cut by
social machinery in such a manner
that it will weld together when
caulked.

Governor of the Gold Coast, West
Africa. "It seems to me that our

j States. I dont knov,' whether che
j fact that the Gold Coast negro, is a
full blood, no mixture with white
blood, has anything to do with it or
not. The full blood negro seems to
be more amenable, more simple
minded, possibly, and is therefore
more apt to follow the instructions
of hie white teacher. We have made
considerable progress with their ed

primary character. We also teach

Banana Tree a Wonderful Thing.
"The banana furnishes us with
j Ink, with handkerchiefs, with wax,
with blacking, with excelsior, with
i oil, with flour, with window cord,
and with br tshes."
The speaker, a bananr planter
from Jamaica, paused and smiled.
"You don't believe me, do you?"
h'" said. "Yet, truly, the banana
tree Is a wonderful thing.' Every
part of it serves some good use. Thus
the long leaves make a fine excelsior.
The juice beinj; rich in tannin, fur
nishes a good indelible ink and a
good shoe polish. The stems yield a
line quality of hemp, and from this
hemp there are made lace handker
chiefs, cords, and ropes ot all kinds,
ma's and brushes. The oil is used
in g'lding. Of banana flour, the
flour ground from the dried fruit,
there is no use speaking?you are
teo familiar with It.
"Run down to Jamaica this win
ter,'" he concluded. "You couldn't
'lave a finer winter trip. Bathe in
the sea on Christmas Day, and buy,
if you ave wise, a small banana plan

that the banana yields, and that is

The Best Cure For Colic
in Horses.
Colic is usually the result of in
digestion, caused by sudden changes
of feed, too long fasting, food given
when the horse is exhausted, new hay
b?r grain, or .large quantities of green
feed.
Every horse owner should keep
Sloan's Sure Colic Cure in his stable
as an insurance against colic, for an
attack of colic is liaide to come on
without warning at any time, and
Sloan's Sure Colic Cure is the safest
and best remedy to use. It acts in
stantly on the stomach and bowels
and can be given a woman or a child.
"I cured a horse with colic that
had heen treated by a good veterin
ary surgeon for forty-eight hours,"
writes Mr. R. A. Pierce, of Cohutta,
Ga. "The horse was about dead and
the owner said he wouldn't take five
cents for him. I gaVe him three
doses of Sloan's Sure Cure and he
was up and eating hay in ten minu
tes."
