An Immense Hog.
Probably the largest live hog to be
foundin North Carolina is owned by
Mr.J,C. Hedrick, cf Silver Hill, Davidson
county. Deputy Collector Thompson,
who spent yesterday in Davidson, tells
us that he saw this mammoth piece of
hog flesh und that it measures ten feet
around. From tip to tip it is eleven
t in length and weighs 900 pounds.
This hog is now two years cld and
despite his weight he is able to get
around with celerity when the occasion
requires."Salisbury World.

The Latest Thing in Purses
An Eastern newspaper avers
that the very, very latest thing is
to have a purse made of the same
material as the street dress. And
not only that, but the purse must
be mounted with a gold clesp,
and have the initials of the own-
erin gold letters upon it. An-
other possibility which i~ is
whispered may descend -upcn
us in fact is to have walking
shoes made in dyed leather to
match the walking costume,
This is a pretty fancy, at® all
events, and has probably come
about from the tremendous and
universal success of the tan shoe.
which is so much softer and
prettier than black.

No cone need be surprised at
the many Scandals disgracing our

tration of Goy. Russell. Nothing | °
else wis, or conld have been,

was obtained by such disgraceful
and fraudulent means, what else
could have been expected of him?
No one doubts, certainly no one
can deny, that RussellTs nomina-

was obtained by fraud and! bri-

think that for this purpose compura-
tively little will be required, or that if
a large sum be collected it will be
divided among very few people. How-
ever, this is a mistake, as, according to
statistics, there are now in Italy from
200 to 300 pecple whose ages exceeds
100 years. The historian Flegone,
in his books, ~*De Milrabilibus� and
oDe Longaevis,� records that from
a census taken at the time of the
Smperor Vespasian, it resulted that
there were in Italty sixty-five centen-
arians, but it is enough to open the
medical encyclopaedia of De Chambre
to establish that the number of centen-
arians has proportionately increased
considerably since the ancient times,
even taking into consideration the
aug.wentation of the population, the
diminction of epidemirs, the lesser
frequency of war, the amelioration of
the
progress of civilization, which has
lessened mortallity. In France, or
instance, in 1857, when the population
was much snaller than at present in
Italy, the centenarians were 175. To
reach 100 years, however, should not

Uncleanly Middle Ages,
Lord Playfair uas recalled the
fact that Queen Elizabeth usea to
write her lord mayor scolding let
tere because he allowed the city
to grow too fast; it actually con-
tained at the time 160,000 people,
who, as the queen wrote, obecame
heaped together, and in a Sort
smothered,� and accordingly she
forbade any more houses to *e
built within three miles of Lon-
den and Westminister. ~The rate
of mortality was ther eighty in
|
1,000, whereas now it is nineteen |
and is being steadily reduced.
No one was ever a better hygien-
ist than Moses. The conditions
which he enjoyed were those
which we now seek to attain"
clean air, clean water, clean food,
clean soil. The Romans also
practiced cleanliness and enjoyed
good health. Unhappily between
the ancients and ourselyes there
was a period of 1,000 years, wher
Michelet, the historian of the pe-
riod,said that not a man or woman
in Europe ever took a bath,�
states the Saturday Raview.
Those poor middie ages are
suffering from the modern spec-
ialist as from the sciolist, the
dirty ages Lord P ayfair would
have them called. And ret they
built cathedrals that we. cannot
even restore becomingly, and
gave us chivalry and an ideal of
womanTs purity that is still trans-
forming life. Lord Playfair
thinks he bas characterized St.
Francis wheu ue says that St-
Francis kuew nothing of the
bath; but we wonder what St.
would bave thought of Lord Play-
fair and the materialistic ideais
that ignore the soul.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH,
A Pleasant Simple, but Safe Et-
fectual Cure forjit,
Catarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thine to
incurable, .
The usual symptoms are a fuli or
bloating sensation after eating, accom"
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and "
difficult breathing; headache fickle
appetite, nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling,
There is often a foul ~taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and if the
interior of the stomach could be seen
it would slowa slimy, inflamed con-
Jition.
The cure for this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a treat"
ment which causes the tood to be
readily, thoroughlv digested before it
has a ume to ferment and irritate the
delicate mucous surfaces of the
stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing to
do, and when normal earn is
eed the caturrhal condition will
have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal a tablet, composed of
Distsste, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
Golden Seal en fruit acids,
These iablets can now be found at
all drug stores uncer the name of
StuaniTs Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not
belng a patent medicine, can be used
with perfect safety and assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough digestion
will follow th-ir rezular use after meals.
on N. J. Booher ct 2710 Dearborn
, Chicago, Il., writes: oCatarrh
is a local condition resulting trom a
neglected cold inT the head, whereby
the liaing membrane of the nose
becomes inflamed and the poisonous
discharge theretrum, passing backword
into the throat, reaches the stomach,
thus producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical anthoritics preseribed for me
for three years tor catarrh of stomach
without eure, but today I am the
happiest of mex after using only one
box of StuartTs Dyspepsia oLablets, J
cannot find appropriate werds to
express my good ieeling,
I have found flesh, appetite and
sound rest from tueir use.
Stuarts Dyspepsia ~Tablets is the
satest preparation as well as the simp"
lest and most converient remedy for
and form of indigestion, catarrh ot
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heartburn and bloating after ineals,

A BIRDTS STOREHOUSE.
The Cal ifornia Woodpecker Packs Its Focd
Away Safely.
Fred A. Ober, who has been a
great traveler, recounts gome of the
strange scenes he has witnessed for
St. Nicholas. He contributes a pa-
per entitled ~~A BirdTs Storehouse;
or, The Carpenter Bird.T�T Mr. Ober
says:
He is a handsome bird, and if there
were not so many of his species he
would attract a great deal of atten-
tion. He has a bright red head,
black and white body and a needle
pointed tail. The tail supports him
in a perpendicular position on the
side of a tree while he is hammer-
ing, or rather chiseling, a hole in its
bark.
Now, all woodpeckers, having
sharp pointed beaks and very strong
muscles in their necks and heads,
can drive a deep hole into the side
of a tree or stump, but this Califor-
nia woodpecker is said to surpass
them all asahole digger, and he
not only digs the hole, but he fills it
ap With a nut or an acorn.
This is the strangest part of his
performance, for, while a_ great
many other birds have the hole dig-
ging instinct, there are very few of
them that possess the hole filling in-
stinct. The blue jays and the squir-
rels havea habit of accumulating
supplies in the shape of nuts and
acorns, and you may see them al-
most any day in autumn snatching
the acorns from twigs and branches.
The same instinct prompts this
woodpecker to lay in his stores of
acorns. Some people say, however,
that he never resorts to these sup-
plies again, but just lays them up
without a thought as to the future
at all. But this is not the way with
nature. She does not work blindly,
but always with some wise purpose
in view.
At any rate, this bird can drilla
hole in the very hardest wood, and
at this business he is employed al-
most all the time. Tho holes are
tances apart, each about the size of
an acorn. He is never discouraget
and never gives up a task, even
though it may seem most formid-
able. He has been known to sur-
round a giant redwood tree, over 20
feet in circumference, with rings of
holes, one above another, from the
root to the topmost limb, for over
200 feet. I say ~~heTT did it, but I
imean, of course, generation after
generation of them, for many, many
years. .
After he has got the hole or holes
to his liking he flies off to the near-
est oak tree and secures an acorn,
which he brings to the storehouse
tree and places in the little osafety
depositT? he has made for it. It fits
exactly, and so, inserting it sharp
end first, he hits it repeatedly with
his beak and drives it in to stay till
needed.
So long as the woodpecker con-
fines his harvesting to the acorns no
one except the Indians, who fre-
quently store them up for winter
food, will have anything to say, but
this he does not do. Itis said that
he sixes nuts as well, and a story is
tolu of a family of woodpeckers that
comp Mtely stripped asmall grovo of
alm id trees. The owner of the
ero. 3 thought he must have a good
crop, and when the time came to
gather it he went to do so, and, lo,
there was not a nut on any tree!
But one of his boys, in foraging
about, found an immense old oak
which was partly decayed and rid-
dled with holes from top to bottom,
and in each hole was an almond! So
the tree was cht down, and the mun
secured several bushels of almonds
after all; but the woodpeckers scold- |
ed him loudly.
Photographic Experiment.
A most interesting experiment is
the transferring to paper of the nat
ural outline and tints of a leaf, and,
{hough, strictly speaking, this is
not a photographic experiment, the
impression obtained has the fidelity
of a photograph. Take a piece of
fine linen, free from starch, and
soak it in spirits of niter (saltpeter)
until it.is thoroughly saturated with
the solution, Have ready a sheet of
drawing or other smooth paper and
~place on it the leaves from which it
is desired to make impressions.
Place over them the piece of linen
wet with the niter, lay asheet of pa-
per over the linen, put all between
two pieces of heavy cardboard and
put into a letterpress or under
heavy weights tor three or four
days. When removed from the
press, tue leaves will bo found
bleached perfectly white, while the
trape af tho leaf im all its natural
cdlors will ve found, duprinted op
