GA8 USED UNDER LIME KILNS. Innovation by Connecticut Is a Succesa. Company The New England Lime company, of Winstead, Conn., asserts that it is the first to introduce gas as fuel foi lime burning. The method is pro nounced an entire success. The growing scarcity of wood fuel led to the discovery of gas as a substitute for wood, and the company no longer considers the gas method an experiment The efficacy and reliability of gas have been demonstrated beyond a doubt. Had it been Impossible to find a substitute for wood, said a member of the company, it would have meant the restriction and perhaps the total Gas abandonment of the business. fires are absolutely clean at all times no clinkers and no cinders and the lime produced is much whiter than that burned by wood. Gas also produces a more Intense heat, and consequently increases the capacity of the kilns. The dally output at the companys kilns is increased from 80 barrels per kiln to 100 barrels, or a total of 700 barrels dally. ' Switzerlands Silk Production. Few people probably , suspect the xtent to which Switzerland figures countries of among the the world, which, so far as Europe is concerned, have always been supposed to be France and Italy. But Switzerland exports annually silk to the value pt about $20,000,000, nearly all going to European countries. Iceland's First Theater. Icelands first theater was founded only in 1897 and there is only one in the Island at Reykajavik but it has taken firm root. The dramatic sear son opens in October and closes at the end of April, when a large part of the inhabitants go fishing. SALLOW FACES Good Colors for Houses. is not generally known not even tints and among painters why certain colors wear much better than others on houses, and the knowledge of just what tint are best to use is, therefore, rather ha.v. One writer on paints, in a rccentbook, says that experiments seem to show that those colors which resist or turn back the heat rays of the sun, will protect a house better than those which allow these ravs to pass through the him. Thu red is a good color because it turns back, or reflects the red rays, and the red rays are the hot rays. In general, therefore, the warm tones are good and t tie cold tones are poor, so far as wear is concerned. In choosing the color of paint for your house, select reds, browns, grays and olives, which, considering the various tones these tints will produce, will give a wide range from which to choose. Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold yellows (like lemonl, cold greens (like grass green, etc.), and the blues. It must lie understood that no virtue is claimed for tints in themselves, irrespective of the materials used in the paint. Any color will fade, and the paint will scale off, if adulterated white lead or canned paint is used, but if one is careful to ue the best white lead some brand of a reliable manufacturer and genuine linseed oil, the warm tints mentioned above will outwear the same material tinted with tlie cold colors. It to which he had been subjected had seared his heart. Nevertheless, pride went under in the struggle, and he started forth to ascertain from the lady herself why he no longer found favor in her sight. When he reached the ladys house, she was not there; indeed no one knew where she was. Her father had given up the house eight months ago, and in New York, where no man knows his next door neighbor, the interval opposed a blank wall against further Inquiry. It struck him as a small coincidence that at the period of this change of residence he was in the wildest part of the Philippines and temporarily incapacitated from writing home. Letters from Elsie, breathing love and hope, continued to reach him by devious routes for some weeks. Then silence! Being a determined man, he interviewed local tradesmen, policemen, post office officials, and finally a doctor. Here he found a clew.

A man awaited his arrival, an army officer, like himself, and it was sufficiently amazing to read on the strangers card: W. Tennant been chasing you round the he explained. My business is Capt J.

The latter walked straight into her palatial suite and thrust some ola and frayed letters ber eyes.

You Will will recognize her handwriting. you give them to me quietly, or must I take them by force? John! she shrieked, protect me! "Darling, said her better half, I am helpless.

Give me my letters, or by the bones of your martyred first husband, I will That was enough. She produced a crumpled packet from the bosom of her dress. Without a word of apology or further comment, Jimmy stood where he was and read the blurred lines, for the lady had wept hot tears over them, and the paper was almost in tatters. The silly mistake which might yet have a tragic ending was quickly revealed. Elsie had indeed seen in a newspaper an account of the marriage, and her lovers prolonged silence at that unhappy juncture forced her to the conclusion that he had jilted her. Her last little note of farewell wrung his' heart in agony. It was a long and difficult search for ten days. Jimmys chief difficulty was that the only persons who knew th Stapletons whereabouts regarded him as aa unprincipled scoundrel, and to see him.

A few days ago Gov. of Cobb, and Hon. W. R. Pattangall, Maine, prominent in politics in the same state, were together on a train. Mr. Pattangall is a lawyer and an editor, the writer of tha humorous Meddy-bemp- s Letters appearing in his paper, tha Machlas Union. Ia the course of conversation, Gov. Cobb marked to Mr. Pattangall: I dont see why you and Llwellyn Powers should be so extremely antagonistic to each other. Neither of you ever falls to give, the other a rap when there is opportunity. At this point an interested listener in the car leaned toward their chairs and asked: Is It really true that ex Gov. Powers is of Indian descent? Well, the Indians deny it, Mr. Pattangall answered, in his inimitable manner.

With a soldiers strategy the leader of mount ed infantry first ct.ptured Elsies father and made him listen to reason. Then it was thought advisable that the dame should be forced to go and veil her story to Elsie, and thus prepare her for the coming of her lover. She played her part honestly, but with whimpers.

Often Caused by Coffee Drinking. ,:grm"y There are two classes of remedies; those of known quality and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, In harmony with nature, when nature needs assistance ; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo- rarily, but injuriously, a3 a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to contribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanso the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as "well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy aud the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial c.Tects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the Genuine-Syru- p 1 of Figs manufactured by the California Fig Syrnp Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrnp Co. plainly printed on the front of package.
