infection Many cases given up by
physicians as hopeless have been won

with his methods are confident that be-
fore many years have passed the dread

ONE USEFUL FLY
Savtd
Tired Mrrchant’
and 1’ocket Hook
Flies- are so seldom heroic that the
story of how one of the “pesky things”
saved for a Cincinnati business man
his wallet and diamond stud is in
many ways remarkable The time was
early Thursday morning and the place
was a smoking car of a Louisville &
Nashville train which stood at the
Tenth street station ready for the run
to Cincinnati The fly was dozing on
the bald spot of the Cincinnati mer-
chant's head The man who had been
attending the races was also tired and
sound asleep In his inside coat pock-
et was bis wallet containing all his
money On his shirt front a diamond
glistened Suddenly the fly was
aroused He saw a man's hand work-
ing at the shirt stud Not a moment
was to be lost The fly danced over
the sleeping man's cheek In a vain en-
deavor to arouse him The merchant
only turned The fly galloped over his
chin and did a “stunt” in his ear No
response In desperation he began to
slow march up and down the nose of
the man asleep The merchant clutched
wildly struck the wrist of the pick-
pocket and the next instant was
awake The thief ran from the smok-e-’
and disappeared in the darkness
The fly like all heroes did not await
to receive the thanks of the man whom
he had befriended but flew away

Oppmed to Women Smoking
King Edward Is much more particu-
lar about the amenities than when he
was the gay and careless Prince of
Wales No one who knew of him then
would suppose that he ever would ob
ject to women smoking Doubtless he

now alas! it Is announced that the
King dislikes “mannish” women A
story Illustrating this change of heart
is being told by the English papers

Oar Doctor-Governor
It Is a common and somewhat child-
ish fashion among those who cannot
bend him to their own purposes In
Cuba to icfer to Gov Wood as Doetor-
Gen Wood f These persons are too
short-sighted to see that after all this
epithet which they speak In contempt
and derision is rather a high distinc-
tion than otherwise Certainly Doc-tor-Maj
Gorgas need not hesitate to
take such a designation as a tribute
nor should Surgeon-Maj Havard feel
unhappy to be so called The hypena-
tion Is merely a further distinction for
them all since it indicates that to
their unquestioned fitness as men en-
gaged in the pursuit of arduous mili-
tary duties they have added to their
equipment those qualities of mind of
character and of usefulness in the ser-
vice of mankind which belong to the
recognized guardians of the health of
man — Harper's Weekly
OF BRAZIL
timent too abrupt the scene of the lit-
tle tale Is laid in the days when he
was Prince So we read tnat: "Some
time ago when as Prince of Wales
His Royal Highness was the guest of
a certain great friend of his one of
the ladies staying in the house when
In the billiard room after dinner
pulled a cigarette from her case and
commenced to enjoy a quiet whiff
Presently she noticed the look of dis-
gust depicted on the face of the
Prince “Your Royal Highness” ex-
claimed the lady half apologetically
“do you know I think I would sooner
die than not smoke?” Very cuttingly
replied the Prince “Then put it off a
little longer pray madam till you do
die!”— New York Press
Street Car Ethics In Vlsnna
The tramcars In Vienna are small
and dingy and like everything else
are controlled by the government
writes a correspondent In the New
York Times If you Infringe upon the
law however slightly you find the
good right hand of Franz Josef clutch-
ing you by the neck As an instance
the windows of the cars can only be
opened on one side there is a law to
that effect as the Austrians regard a
draught even in midsummer as some-
thing deadly The passenger must also
see to it that his faro is paid the
duty Is not on tho conductor at all
Should he happen to pass you by you
must keep your eyes upon him as the
government inspector is liable to jump
on the car at any moment and if you
have no ticket showing that you have
paid you arc arrested then and there
Another thing you are allowed to
Jump off and on a horse car but if you
do the same thing in the cas? of an
electric car you are arrested
