A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN.

A Washington correspondent Of
the New Orleans Baiiittn draws a
charming picture Of The wife Of Sena-
tor Gordon, Of Georgia:
Over in the reserved gallery, there
sits a sweet little lady with a tin lace
veil only half hiding her pretty little
face. The eyes are very bright and
soft, always lighted with charming
smile; the forehead high-arched and
broad, framed in with the ripping
waves Of soft brown hair. Always
tastefully dressed, you will especially
note the perfect glowing Of the slend-
der hands, and her graceful way Of
moving them. Every one who sees
her asks who she is, aud | can t ell
you. See, now, the gallery door
opens, and Gen. Gordon comes down
to claim the proud welcome of his
aci(c! The best of it is that husband
aud wife though they have been for
many years, they are yet ike lovers
now; and if you want to to sec Mrs.
Gordon's eyes beam, her cheeks
flush, and her lovely head poiSc itself
with a still prouder self-assertive
grace, just pretend that you don't
know who she is and praiset he Gen
eral il her hearing.

A CUTE LITTLE GIRL-A New
Hamshire newspaper tells about lit
tie six year old girl in a country town
in that State who went into a store
where her father was lounging the
other day, and slyly approached him,
said: Papa, won't you buy me new
dress?" "What, buy yon a new dress,
"Susy 7" Eyes papa, won't you9''
"Well, Ill see. I'll speak to. your
mother about it," Elongation to an
alarming extent rapidly spread over
the little face, but a thought sudden
Iy struck her, and with smile she
looked up into her fathers face and
said. DWELL papa, if you do speak to
mamma about it, touch her easy. or
she may want the new dress herself"
The father at once saw the point, and
the new dress was purchased without
consultation.

4 Hunchback's Revenge.


In August last great alarm was created
in the village of Incisia, near Florence,
by the disappearance of two children-a
boy nine years old on the morning Of the
21st, and another boy of eight the follow
ing evening. 1t was supposed they might
have fallen into the stream, where they
went to fish and BATH, but no traces OF
them or their clothes could be found All
kinds of exaggerated ideas got atloat IN
the village, more particularly as these
were not the first children who had SUD
denly disappeared, and it was asserted
that there were children-Nllers IN the aQ-
joining wood On the 29tn, while one OF
the women of the village was arranging
her hair at the back window of her room,
she heard frightful shrieks, and recognized
them as coming from Amerlgo Iurchl, a
boy nine wears old, and that they pro-
ceeded from the workshop Of one Carlo
Grand, cart carpenter. She ran down
intothc street and alarmed the neighbors,
who made for the workshop, which they
found closed, the boy crying loudly fer
help from within After vain attempts to
get Grandi to admit them they burst open
the door and found him struggling to
force the boy into hole. He had cut the
child fearfully about the head and from
lis mouth blood was flowing, caused, as
lie boy afterward narrated, by wedge
randi had tried to force into his mouth
10 gag him.
After the man was secured it was OBJ
served that some of the bricks Of the floor
ing were loose, and on these being re-
moved the first thing seen was child's
hand. The place was quickly dug up,
and the mutilated bodies of the two boys
who had DISAPPEARED ten days before were
discovered; and on the hole into which
Grandi was trying to force Amerigo
/ Turchi being examined a number of
other children's bones were found in the
bottom No sooner was the thing known
than the village became scene Of the
widest excitement, and the authorities
had TO send off in hot haste for whatever
military and police there were in the
Vicinity, and sufficient force arrived just
il time to save the wretch from being torn
to pieces by the pOpulace.
1t seems that the murderer, Grandi, was
a deformed manOf Il diminutive stature,
high rounded shoulders, very large head,
upon which there was not d scrap Of hair,
and rcpulsive features AS is too often
the case in Italy, such unfortunate Great
ures become the subject Of open public
ridicule. The boys Of IncIsa had been in
the habit Of teasing and tormenting
Grandi and playing all kinds Of practical
jokes on him, and it was in revenge for
this that he had, as opportunity offered
enticed now one and then another of the
ringleaders into his workshop, and there
murdered them, burying them under the
floor Amerigo Turchi said that Grandi
had invited him into his workshop under
the pretext of having some fun with the
other boys; that to accomplish this he
was to hide in the hole Grandi uncovered,
but that Immediately he entered Grandi
attempted to strangle him.-R0me Cor.

A PRETTY tableau in real life was re-
Gently arranged near Oregon, Holt Coun-
ty, Kan, where young lady named AL
ice Carson encouraged the attentions of
two young men named Kretzer and
Wheeler. Having agreed to marry both
of them, she named the same day for the
wedding and trusted to luck to decide
which should be the happy man. Wheel
er arrived first with travelling minister,
and hardly had the ceremony been per-
formed when Kretzer appeared with a
dignified Episcopalian rector Kretzer
insisted on an explanation, while Wheeler
declared that his wife should not explain
her actions to any other man except him
self Pistols were drawn and knives bran
dished, so that there seemed every reason
to expect that the lady would be left with
out either lover The wrath Of the
disappointed Kretzer was finally APP
peased and he was aboutto retire, when it
was discovered that the two ministers
were involved in heated contest over the
right of the outsider to collect his fee with
out paying royalty to the regular resident
clergyman.

The Strange Disease.

LIKE the thief at night, it steals in upon
us unaWares. The patients have pains
about the chest and sides, and sometimes in
the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has a bad taste, especially in the
morning. A sort of sticky slime collects
about the teeth The appetite is poor
There is a feeling like a heavy load on the
stomach, sometimes a faint, all-gone sensa-
ton at the pit of the stomach, which food
does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the
hands and feet become cold and feel clam
my. After awhile cough sets in, at first
dry, but after few months it is attended
with greenish-cOlOred eXpectoration. The
patient feels tired all the while, and sleep
docs not appear to afford any rest. After q
time he becomes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is
a giddineSs, sort Of Whirling sensation in
the head when rising up suddenly. The
bowels become costiyc, the skin is dry and
hot at times. The blood becomes thick and
stagnant, the whites of the eyes become
tinged with yellow the urine is scanty and
high-colored, depositing sediment after
standing. There is frequently splitting up
of the food, sometimes with a sour taste
and sometimes a swedish taste. This is
frequently attended with palpitation Of the
heart The vision becomes impaired with
spots before the eyes. There is a feeling of
great prostration and weakness. All of
these symptoms do not make their appear
ance at one time, but during the various
stages they are in turn present. 1t is
thought that nearly one-third of our popu-
lation has this disease in some of it's varied
forms. It has been found that medical men
have mistaken the nature of this disease.
Some have treated it for liver complaint,
some for dyspepsia, others for kidney dis
ease, etc, etc, but none of these various
kinds of treatment have been attended with
success. It is found, however, that the
