Thera is a void in the English
language which the (Springfield,
Mass., fitpublican undertakes to fill.
Every one has been put in an embai-
assing position by ignarance of the
status of some woman. “To call a
maiden Mrs., is only a idhade worse
than to insult a matron with the in-
ferior title Miss,” declares that pa-
per. “Yet it is not always easy to
kwew the facts.

The Miss or Mrs. -sometimes added
in brackets are but an awkwurd
makeshift, and often it is taken for
granted tliat the recipient of the lat-
ter will remember the proper style
of tho writer, when, as a matter of
fact, he does nothing of the sort.
Now, clearly, what is needed is a
more comprehensive term which docs
homage to the sex without express-
ing any views as to tlicir domestic
situation, and what could be sim-
pler or more logical than the reten-
tion of what the two doubtful terms
have in common. The abbrevia-
tion Ms. is simple, it is easy to write,
and the person concerned can tran-
slate it properly according to circum-
stances. For oral use it might be
rendered as Mizz, which would be a
close parallel to the practice long
universal in many bucolic regions,
where a slurrel Mis’ docs duty for

‘•There is only one cbaDC* to

words heard by Mrs I. B. -Kuut,
of Lime Ridge, Wia, from her
doctor after he had vaiuly tried to
cure her of a frightfa! case of
stomach trouble and yellow joau-
dice. Gall stones had formed and

Reasoning Crows.
Many tales have been told about
the rational powers of the common
Old black crow. Her© is a good one:
Two brothers Caw lighted upon a
frozen pond. One got a firm-footing
{upon a cake of ice, but the other
pitched into some pulpy snow, from
whish lie found it impossible to ex-
tricate himself. Crow No. 1 went
fo the Tescuc, but being unable to
help his partner out of the scrape,
stopped, cocked his. head on one side
In deliberation, chatted for a mo-
men with the prisoner and flew off.
In about ton minutes lie returned,

and cheerfulness soon

Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
J that It Is not uncommon
. for a child to !be born
Q3 afflicted with weak kid-
neys. If the child urin-
_ _ . ates too often, If the
urine scalds the fleah or if, when the child
reaches an »ge when it should be able to
control the -passage, ft la yet afflicted with

the difficulty Is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women as -well as men are made mis-
erable with kidney and bladder troiAle.
and both need the same great remedy.
The mild and the immediate effect of

Bso Sting Cure for Rheumatism.
Dr. Terc, a medical man. of much
repute in Vienna, advocates as an
effective remedy for rheumatism the
saturating of the patient’s body with
the venom of bees. For the pur-
pose he extracts the venom, treasur-
ing it up,in quantity, and applying
it artificially in the way of punc-
tures. Ho founds, this treatment on
liis discovery that rheumatic pa-
tients do not suffer from a lice’s
sting to anything like the same de-
gree as other people. He -found
that the tumefaction or swelling
tlmt follows the stinging of a bee
does not appear in the rheumatic pa-
tient unless he has been stung sev-
eral times, while in 6ome cases the
stinging is hardly felt. When tho
patient suffers liimsclf to be .stung
repeatedly his immunity against tho
poison of the bee becomes complete
and he feels noe .pain ■whatsoever.
What is mere, he gets cured of his
rheumatism.
Not the Blue Danube.
A coldblooded scientist has just
administered a death blow to the
traditional belief in “tho blue Dan-
ube." Ht> watched the big rivgr
for a whole year, giving to his stud-
ies an hour every morning. The
result of these observations was that
he found the watei to be brown elev-
en times; yellow, forty-six; dark
green, fifty-nine; light green, forty-
five ;. grass green, -twenty-five;
greenish gray, sixty-nine; other
shades of green, 110, and that it!
Prize ®ng Mads Into a Kitchen.
Almost anything may be expected
now during lunch hour at the Jack-
son Couaty Democratic Club. The
old prize Ting has be$u relegated to
tho kitchen. When President
Kemper took hold of the club he
made a solemn vow that never dur-
ing his administration would fistic
entertainments be permitted, and
when a week ego the chef howled
for a new kitchen, tables, plate racks
and scullery fittings he also howled
for lumber and a carpenter.
“Takq, the prize ring,” said the
uresident with a wave of his hand
*fnk(T that thing into tables and
plate racks and scullery fittings. 1
expect the minute you put the
knives and forks on the tiling they
will jump to the center and start a
battle rpyal, but I can not help it.
Bring on your carpenter."
So tho carpenter was put to work
and yesterday morning the last vest-
ige of the ring on which “Young
Corbett” and other gentry of that
like danced was -transformed into
the humble though more useful ad- j
jrniets of n kitchen.
“I guess we will have to tell Dim-
mitt,” suggested Deacon Ridge, ever
mindful of the arch enemy of tho
club.
A Telephone Mstsr.
Thomas Baret, of Sydney, New
South Wales, has recently obtained
a patent for art invention by which
the actual length of the time that
a telephone is used on any occussion
can bo measured, so that the com-
pany may charge the subscriber only
for the actual service he has had.
A subscriber who, in the course of a
day, should use the telephone for an
hour would pay for that length of
time, and not the same amount as
another subscriber would- pay who.
would perhaps use his telephone sev-
eral hours etch day. The “tele-
phone meter” consists of a '‘dock-
work mechanism which is quiet when
the telephone is not in use. hut
which begins to move the moment
the receiver is lifted from the hook,
and so registers the length of time
the instrument is employed. The
apparatus is so arranged that the TTp
and-down movement of the level
switch winds up the clockwork. A
.dial plate indicates how long tin
telephone has been in use.

fire the other morning, and probably
saved the lives of the inmates of the

found that the house was full of
smoke, and lost no time in arousing
the inmates, one of whom ran and

Stork Stopped the Press
The Gazette of Alger, O., failed to
appear last week, but the editor’s
excuse seems entirely satisfactory.
Here it is: “Born, to Mr. and Mrs.

That’s the reason the Gazette was
not published last week, and we
think it is a good excuse. We felt
too jubilant after we found out we
were Dad, to think much about

forgive tho omission. We are not
used to being called Dad yet, but
