STRANGE FACTS
A suit of clothes made of stone Is the
latest innovation on exhibition in a
New York clothes -dealer's window.
The material is soft and pliable, and
when soiled has only to be placed iu a
fire to bo made absolutely clean.
A perman workman named Gauschy
has just been released from the jail
at Mulhauseu after serving forty-five
years' imprisonment for murder. This
constitutes a record as regards a con-
tinuous term of incarceration in mod-
ern times.
Something new in acropla:tt s has
been invented by a Japan: ar neblc-
man named Baron lea. The inventor
has taken the dragon -sly as his model,
and has constructed two sets of wings
which can be made to Clap at the will
of the operator. It is claimed that this
arrangement will enable the air:•1.1ane
to maintain its position in the air
without moving.
When a charge of treat stealing twaa
about to be heard at the Swansea
Quarter Sessions, the man charged
with the offence was found to be miss-
ing. He was discovered among the
grand Jury, helping to decide whether
there was a bill against himself or
not. He explained that he thought
the jurymen were all prisoners. He
was found aot guilty and discharged.
The Romford Urban Council, says
an English paper, have appointed a
special committee to obtain a proper
valuation of the old oak panelling
which has been found in a farmhouse
standing on land used for the disposal
of sewage. The matter was first
' broug' t to the notice of the council
by an anonymous offer of $1,500 for
the panelling. It was then found that
a dealer had estimated its value at
$4,000, and also that it was be(ng dam-
aged by damp, the rooms being used
for the storage of onftms and the roofs
being leaky.
ONLY PELISSIER'S FUN
How He Teased a Pressman Who
Called For a Picture
It is not an easy task to interview
Mr. Pelissier, the chief of the "Fol-
lies." Here is an example of the man-
ner in which he teases the harrassed
Pressman. "I see, you want a picture
of the house I was not born in and
photographs of my aunts, and that
sort of thing. I can read you an ap-
preciation of myself by myself, if that
will help you any. At an astonishing-
ly early age I showed unmistakeable
signs of humor and created shrieks of
mirth among toy brothers and sisters
by tripping up old blind ladies in the
street, kic•i-ine Ibe crutches from the
grant) of n passing cripple, and a thou-
sand ollt.r i;Inoc•• in drolleries. At the
age of nine e family council was held
to s•'•• whether I should he educated
or sent tc Eton. Alter a time 1 went
abroad, and on my return from the
t oyagc' 1 was cheered by an enormous
crowd, with both of whom I gratefully
:hook hands." So ho continues till the
be.viluered interviewer takes his
]cave, not knowing e bit mere about
Mr. P;lissicr than when he came.

TALK WITH MAKER
Of GLASS EYES
Always Keeps a Quantity of Human
Eyes on Hand—Black, Hazel,
Blue and Grey
"I can make any kind of eye, one
that will suit a girl's doll or her mam-
ma, if she should ever be ea unfortu-
nate as to be iu want of one," said a
*well-known glass -eye maker in London.
"I do not do much in the way of birds'
eyes, they are mostly manufactured in
Birmingham, and, like the doll's eyes,
do not require very special skill. It
is where you have to match the natural
eye with an artificial one so like it as
to be practically indistinguishable that
our'special art comes in.
"I _:eep a good many 'human' eyes
on and, though frequently 1 am asked
to make ono to order. I-Iere are two
b ,xes, each containing about 200---
r.lack, hazel, blue, and grey. You will
see the higher colors are of all shades,
and scarcely one pair is exactly the
same as another
Sparkling Eyes for Ladles
"These are ladies eyes on your right.
You will notice that they have more
sparkle and brilliance than the gentle-
men's. Here is a pair made to order,
or rather I should say two, for they
are, of course, intended for different
ladies. They are both young and nice -
looking, and no one will be able to
tell that both their eyes age not per.
fectly natural. When a lady or gen-
tleman comes to me for an eye I study
closely the one they have left, the ball,
the pupil, the exact shade of color.
It is more important to them than sit-
ting
itting for their portrait to a Royal
Acadamecian.
"No, you cannot tell it is artificial,
unless where the wearer cannot afford
the price, and is content to buy what
we call a misfit. These are, of course,
much cheaper, but it is a rare chance
If they match the other eye. And then
they do not fit the socket exactly, as
those do made to order, and they do not
move in accordance with the move-
ments of the natural eye. That is how
they are so often detected. A per-
fectly -fitting eye is as responsive to
the movements of the muscles as the
natural eyeball. Even e'octors, when
not put on their guard, are frequently
deceived, and I have more than one
lady customer whose husbands be-
lieve their wives to be possessed of the
orthodox number. In [act, both hus-
band and wife might each have a
glass eye and the other not know,
but, I must say, I have never had such
an instance in my experience.
.Take Out Your Eye at Night
"It is wiser to take out the eye when
retiring tor the night. Many sleep
with them under their pillow, others
put them in a tumbler of water, while
many don'- take the trouble to re-
move them at all. They are not like
false teeth, you know, ready to slip
down the throat.
"Some people wear out ,false eyes
raster than others do. I suppose it
arises from a more active secretion
of fluid in the socket. Yes; I suppose
you may call it tears, but it need not
be from crying only. The secretion
acts on the false eye as acid does on
metal, and the surface becomes cor-
roded and roughened. The roughness
leads to inflammation, and thee the
best thing they can do is to come to
me for a new eye. Our sale of men's
ayes is double that of women's. Men
are more exposed to accident. An old
maker, whom 1 knew when learning
the trade, once supplied a lady with
two eyes. She had lost one, and was
so pleased with the artificial one pro-
vided that, when an unfortunate acci-
dent deprived her of the other, she had
a second made to match it.
"False eyes, even the cheapest ones,
are a great blessing to many servant
girls. Without thorn they would never
get a place. In' Paris there is a ,chari-
table institution for supplying false
eyes to the poor. A good eye can be
bad for a couple of guineas, but how
few poor people can afford that. And
the loss of an eye almost certainly in-
volves the loss of a situation, with the
greatest difficulty, or perhaps impas-
sibility, of obtaining another."

SKIN -GRAFTING
May Be of Much Value to the Scien-
tific World
Through the sueee-sful outcome of
an operation performed upoti Anna
Windt, 13 years old, the surgeons of
the Samaritan Hospital at Philadel-
phia have made a discovery which-ntay
be of great benefit to science in the
grafting of skin. The discovery is that
skin taken from the body may be kept
in a healthy condition fcr an indefinite
period without suffering harm, and
tray then be used to replace skin that
has been burned or otherwise de-
stroyed, and will "take held" -as well
as skin cut fresh from the flesh.

Are Your Kidneys
Working Properly?
It Will Pay You Well to Make Sure
There's been a lot of "guessing"•about
rheumatism and rheumatic pains gener-
ally,
enerally, but you can be dead sure that little
pain across your back came front de-
creased kidney action,
'The kidney's duty is to filter the blood
-take out the impurities collected by
the returning blood stream—do• it just
like absorbent cotton in a funnel filters
the impw.ities from polluted water.
When the kidneys are not working you
are bound for one of two courses—Dia-
betes and Bright's Disease or Rheuma-
tism, Lumbago and Sciatica. The for-
mer course is usually fatal, and the latter
always painful, but you need not have
either, as they both can be easily pre-.
vented.
The very best prescription for all kid-
ney troubles is Nyal's Stone Root Com-
pound. It is no "patent" medicine,
but a scientific prescription composed
of Stoneroot, Buchu, Juniper and other
.remedies of proved value. More than
that, it has been proved by• thousands,
who have had glad relief from its use.
There's nothing quite so miserable as
the dragging results of sick kidneys.
You are trifling with your own future
when you neglect so simple a precaution,
as a pleasant home treatment with Nyal's
Stone Root Compound when results are
so certain-. a
It soothes bladder irritation, gives.
you rest and comfort at night, and makes
life once more enjoyable.
The kidneys, liver and bladder are all
dependent upon one another, and Nval's
Stone Root Compound is particularly
designed to help :.hem all.

THE GREAT PEACE RIVER
Potentialities of the Far Northwest--•
A Comparison Made With SI-
berian Progress
One hundred million acres of agri'
cultural land, sixty-five per cent. of It
capable of bearing No. 1 bard wheat,
aro awaiting settlers in the Mackenzie
River watershed, so Mr. J. K. Corn-
wall, M.P,P., of the Peace River dis-
trict of Alberta, told the enembero of
the Toronto Canadian Club. The far-
mer would be subjected to frost the
same as Manitoba was. but: at Fort
Vermillion, 700 miles nortlii of the
boundary, the farmers averaged at the
present time three crops out of five.
The greatest unfished fresh Water
lakes in the world were there, teem-
tsg with fish of the highest commer-
efal value—trout and Whitefish.
Spruce and poplar trees were very
plentiful, and the rivers of the coun-
try were good for a million horse-
power. "What the country wants,"
said Mr. Cornwall, "is. men, money,
and transportation."
The speaker made an interestira.

Tobolsk, in Siberia. Tobolsk, ha Lai
