from los. per week to f175 a year.
A lad who is apprenticed to one of
the Queens cooks has the chance, if
he conducts himself properly, of
obtaining a situation in the kitchen
on the expiration of his term. The
first step is frequently, in the event
of a vacancy, or of one being created,
the situation of larderer; and some
times. if lie has friends and infu-

husband, under the merciless rules
of royal ruling, walked some ranks
behind her in the pageant, stood
apart from her on the dais, and did

TURPENTINE FOR LOCK-JAw-A

TURPENTINE FOR LoCK-JAw-A
correspondent of the Scientific
American recommends turpentine
as certain cure for lock-iaw. He
says: Let any one who has an at
tack of lock jaw take a small quan-
tity of turpentine, warm it and pour
it on the wound, no matter where
the wound is or what its nature is
and relief will follow in less than
one minute. Nothing can be ap-
piled to severe cut or bruise that
is better than cold turpentine; it will
give certain relief almost instantly.
1t is also said to be a sovereign
remedy for Group. Saturate piece
of flannel ON the throat and chest
and in very severe cases three or five
drops on a lump of sugar may be
taken inwardlv. Every family
should have bottle on hand. 1t is
a simple remedy and can be easily
tested. In all serious cases, appli-
cation should be made under medical
advice"

TRIBUTE TO CATHOLICISM.

Theodore Tilton, of the Golden
Age pays the following just tribute
to the mission and power of the
Roman Catholic Church:
We have not particle of sympa-
thy with the Protestant crusade
against the Catholic Church, and
have no intention of lending our
voice to the howl of one set of bigots
and fanatics against another set
only little more bigoted and SUI
perstitious than themselves. The
| Catholic Church has had mission
in history, and has done a work of
the greatest magnitude and moment.
She has bridged the chasm between
two civilizations. Through the long
night of centuries she brooded over
the nest that held the germs of all
that we count precious and sacred.
She was the only potential element
of order through ages of chaos, and
her mighty conservatism held to-
gether the very framework of So
ciety, which but for her tough grip
would have gone to pieces. She
civilized barbarianism, and taught
Pagan people the alphabet of christ
ianity in pictures that pleased while
they instructed, and in a worship
which filled their hearts with rever-
ence and awe. Nor is the mission
vet fulfilled. Her fingers hold the
heart strings of two hundred mill
lions of people, more than half of
whom are still ignorant and morally
undeveloped. Unclasp her strong
but tender hand on these uncultured
hearts, remove the restraints she
imposes and abrogate the authority
she is, and we should have anarchy
at once. Professionalism has written
no creed, fashioned no cultus, framed
no church. developed nopower which
could begin to take the place which
the Catholic Church holds in the
world to-day Destroy this church,
which dates back to the days of the
Apostles, to which the Fathers be-
longed, and around which are gath
cred the most tender and sacred as
sociations of Christian history, and
Professionalism would be involved in
the general wreck. Protestants may
find enough to criticise and condemn
in the dogmas, the discipline, the
ritual, and the policy of that church;
but when they assail that church as
a monstrosity and a pest, and invoke
the civil power to check its growth,
if not to get rid of it altogether, they
show an ignorance as culpable, and
a biSotry as bad as anything they
condemn; they arraign the Provi-
dence they profess to serve, whose
methods are as perfect as they are

HOW TO BE HANDSOME.

Most people like to be handsome.
Nobody denies the greater power which
any person may have who has a good
face and who attracts you by good looks,
even before word has been spoken.
And we see all sorts of devices in men
and women to improve their good looks
paints and washes, cosmetics, includ-
ing plentiful amounting with dirty hair
OIL
Now, not every one can have good
features. They are as God made them !;
but almost any one can look well, espec
tally with good health. 1t is hard to
give rules, in very short space, but in
brief these viii do.
Keep clean-wash freely, and univer-
sally with cool water. All the skin wants
is leave to act freely and it will take care
not be plugged up.
Good teeth are help to good looks.
Brush them with soft brush, especially
at night. Go to bed with the teeth clean.
Of course, to have white teeth, it is
needful to let tobacco alone. Every wo-
man knows that. And any powder or
wash for the teeth should be very SIM
pie. Acids may whiten the teeth, but
they may take off the enamel or iniure
it.
Sleep in cool room, in pure air. No
one can have clean skin who breathes
bad air.
But more than all, in order to look
well-wake up the mind and soul. When
the mind is awake, that dull, sleepy look
passes away from the eyes. I do not know
that the brain expands. but it seems to.
Think, and read books that have some
sense in them. Talk with people who
know something. hear lectures ond learn
by them.
This is one good of preaching. A man
thinks and works, and tell us the result.
And, if we listen, and hear, and under
stand, the mind and soul are walked up.
If the spiritual nature is aroused, so
much the better. We have seen plain
face really glorifed by the love of God
and man which shone through it.
Men say they can't afford books, but
men can afford what they really choose.
If all the money spent in selfindulgence
lin hurtful indulgeace), was spent In
books lin self-improvenent. we should
see change. Men would grow hand
some, and women too. The soul would
shine out through the eyes. We were
not meant to be mere animals,

A Solicitors Mother,

Richmond, Va, Letter to Cincinnati Commercial.
A strange story is current in certain
circles here. About two years ago Mr..
A. married. In due time he became a
father, but his wife died when the child
was few months old. On her death
bed she exhibited intense anxiety as to
the fate of the little one she was to leave
behind her, and earnestly besought her
husband to confde it after her death, to
the care one of her rela tives. He promised,
| and | believe, did for while let the child
stay in charge of the person whom the
mother had designated. Some weeks
ago, however, MIR. A. married, and at
once reclaimed the child, who as yet, has
never yet learned to speak word, and
was unable even to crawl One day this
child was left alone In its step-mother's
bedroom, lying in crib or cradle some
| distance from the bed. When Mrs. A
returned she was amazed to see the child

On strict inquiry throughout the
household it was found that none of the
family had been in the room during Mrs.
AS brief nbsence from it. This is sol
EMMY averred, was but the beginning of
a series of spiritual visitations from the
dead mother Whenever the child was
left alone it could be heard to laugh and
crow as if delighted by the fondlings and
endearments of some one, and on these
occasions it was frequently found to
have changed its dress. position ETC.,
in manner quite beyond its unaided
capacity. Finally as the account is, the
first Mrs. A appeared one night recent
ly at the bedside of Kr. A. and his sec
ond wife, and earnestly entreated, that
her darling should be restored to the
relative whom she had indicated as the
guardian of the child on her deathbed.
The apparition, which, it is declared,

Mr.. A. and his wife were too much
awe-stricken to reply but the next day
the child was carried back as direrected
by the ghostly visitant. Such is the
story as seriously ayouched by the prin-
cipal parties concerned, who are most
respectable and intelligent people, and no
spiritualists.

A New Route for a Ship Canal From
Lake Superior to Green Bay.
From the Official report of Professor WincheIl,
State GeoIogist of Michigan.

From the Official report of Professor Wnchell,
State Geologist of Michigan.
In connection with the post-tertiary
phenomena [ have to call your attention
to the discovery of an ancient outlet of
Lake Superior, through the valley of
the Au Train and whitefsh rivers, into
Little Bay de Nocquet and Green Bay
Lake Michigan. A deep and bluff-lined
valley, mostly with limestone bottom
extends across the interval between
Lake Superior and Little Bay de Noe
quet, and the summit elevation between
the two lakes is incousiderable. 1t may
easily be that this elevation is such as to
justify the project of ship canal across
the divide, with view of shortening the
routes between the ports on Lake Super
lor and those on Lake Michigan. The
Au Train river, from its mouth for the
distance OF ten miles, has current of
four miles an hour. The stream is
thirty to sevcnty-fve feet in width, and
one and half to four feet in depth.
Ten miles up it becomes walled in be-
tween eilffs of sandstone, and here is a
tall OF forty feet. Two miles above this
is another tall of ninety five feet from
the summit level of the divide line
bOe"Ccu luc Two fak6S. he facilities Tor
lockage are such that [ think the State
should at least place ltselfin possession
of official information respecting this
route and should be glad to be in
structed to incur the moderate expense
of running line of leYels over it from
lake to lake.
The discovery of this ancient outlet is
fact itself of no little geological interest.
Its interest is enhanced through its OBJ
ylous relation to other phenomena. This
outlet hes IN the prolongation of the
axis OF Green Bay, and it recalls opinions
formerly entertained, based solely on to-
biographical data, that Green Bay was
prolonged through Lakes Winnebaco
and Horizon in Wisconsin. The pres
ent connection ofGreen Bay with Lake
Michigan is, however, comparatively
slight, and 1T is probable not many ages
since that bay was completely isolated
from the great lake, and constituted a
lake by itself.
Measures have been taken to. conform
the result of our researches to those al
ready attained by the thorough and
well directed investigations of the Can.
adam Geological Survey. For the COM
pletion ofo work, however, recourse
must be had freely to the advantages Of
chemical laboratory.

SWEARING.-The most truthful and
straightforward article on this disgust
ing habit that we have ever read, is the
following, whose authors name we are
not acquainted with: ''It is no mark of
a gentleman to swear. The most worth
less and vile, the refuse Of mankind, the
drunkard and the prostitute, swear as
well as the best dressed and educated
gentleman. No particular endowments
are requisite to give finish to the art
of cursing. The basest and meanest of
mankind swear with as much tact and
skill as the most refined and he that
wishes to degrade himself to the very
lowest level of pollution and shame,
should learn to become a swearer. Any
man has talent enough to learn to curse
God, and impercate perdition on his fell
low men. Profane swearing never did
man any good. No man is the richer or
wiser, or happier for it. It helps no
ones education or manners. 1t com
mends no one to society. 1t is disgust
ing to the refined, abominable to the good,
degrading to the mind, Improbable,
needless, and injurious to society,"
When only to profane His name, and to
invoke His Vengeance, is prehaps of all
offenses the most awful in the sight of
God"

From the Philadelphia Press.

The Kensington National Bank stands
on the east side of Beech street, Just
south of Laurel. The building is an old
one, three stories in height Jast as the
hour of closing the bank had approached
on Thursday afternoon, police officer,
with nothing about him to denote that
he was CONSERVATION of the public peace,
stepped quickly into the counting room
and asked for the cashier. This gentle
man, being busy, hesitated few mo-
ments before complying with this re-
quest, and the interim was improved by
the official in taking a careful survey of
the interior Of that portion of the build
Ing devoted to the uses of the corpora
ton. As there was nothing unusual in
this gaping curiosity of the officer and
as he displayed his mace in a manner
quite conspicuous, suspicion on the part
of the bank officials was not aroused.
Finally, Mr.. William Mcconnell, the
Cashier, asked his business, and was
startled when he answered, There have
been some suspicious characters lurking
about the neighborhood lately, and the
Lieutenant of the distric. desired me to
tell you that they might attempts to
break in" This intelligence was at once
rctalled to every attache of the bank,
but no further action was taken
regarding it, than to call up the two
watchmen who nightly guard the insti-
tuition, John Holmes and Morris Muir
ply, and gave them particular instruc-
tons to let no person inside the bank
building after it was once osed. The
doors were then locked, and the watch
men were left in charge. About o'clock
4 rap was heard upon the door, which
was repeated before the watchmen could
draw the bolts to ascertain the matter
When the door was opened two police
men, fully eqipped for night duty, were
discovered, and one of them said 1.-The
Lieutenant has heard from good sources
that this bank will be robbed tonight,
and he sent us to aid you in protecting
1t. All suspicion disarmed, and the
watchmen thanful for aid in the face of
threatened danger, the pseudo officers
were invited In, and entered. After
some general conversation about the
rumor of the robbery one of the stran-
gers said: I am very dry; wish I
had drink. That you can have i"
responded one of the watchmen, and he
started off to the end of hall leading to

Murphy, agreed to do. No sooner was
the door closed upon him. however, than
the policeman rejoined his eompeer and

was at that time drawing a glass of

had filed it, the two officers seized and
