Finger Nails.

If finger. tips have a language of
their own, so have the nails; and the
manner of keeping is as eloquent as all
the rest. Some keep them long and
pointed, like "reminiscences of claws !:
others bite theirs close to the quick
some pare and trim and scrape and
polish up to the highest point of arti-
fetal beauty and others, carrying the
doctrine of nature to the outside limit,
let them grow wild, with jagged edges,
broken tracts, and agnails or back
friends" as the agOnizing consequences.
Sometimes you see the most beautiful
nails, pink, transparent, filbert-shaped,
with the delicate flmy little "half-
moon indicated at the base-all the
conditions of beauty carried to perfec-
ton, but all rendered of no avail by
dirt and slOvenliness; while others,
thick, white, ribbed, square, with no
half room, spotted like so many circus
horses with "gifts" and GO friends, and
the like-that is, without beauties aud
with positive blemishes-are yet pleas
ant to look at for the care bestowed on
them, their dainty perfection of clean
illness being a charm in itself. Moth
ing indeed is more disgusting than dirty
hands and neglected nails, and nothing
gives one such a sense of freshness and
ease as the same members well kept.
But one of the ugliest things in nails
is when they are bitten which, to
Judge by what one sees, is a habit hav-
ing irresistible destinations for those
given over to it. It is an action, by the
way, that has more than one signif-
canoe. It may mean consideration,
doubt, hesitancy or it may mean anger
and annoyance; or, as a habit, it may
point to the not remote possibility of
madness. In any way it is ugly. to look
at, and worse than ugly in its results
bare fieger-tips, with the protecting
cover gnawed to the bleeding flesh, be-
longing to the list of things mutilated
and willfully spoiled-therefore taken
out of the category of things ugly by
nature, hence misfortunes for which
the sufferer is in no wise accountable.

Died Suddenly of Heart Disease

How common is the announcement. Thou
sands are suddenly swept into eternity by this
fatal malady. This disease generally has it's
origin in impure blood filed with irritating,
poisonous materials which, circulating through
the heart, irritate its delicate tissues. Though
the irritation may at first be only slight pro-
ducing little palpitation or irregular action
or dull. heavy, or sharp darting pains, yet by
and by the disease becomes firmly seated, and
inflammation. or hypertrophy, or thickening
of the lining membrane or Of the valves, is
produced. How wise to lgive early attention
to case of this kind. Unnatural throbbing
or pain in the region of the heart should ad
monish one that all is not right, and if You
would preserve it from further disease, you
must help it to beat rightly by the use of such
a remedy as will remove the cause Of the
trouble. Use DIR. Pierces Golden Medical Dis

KIT CARSON. Fremont, in one
of her pleasant papers on " distinguish
ed people she has known" pays a mer-
tied tribute to the memory of Kit Car
son. The motive of her article was the
false light of fiction cast upon his name
by poet of the prairie and sierra. He
was certainly no savage rake or rufaer.
His domestic life was as regular and
blameless as that of any deacon in New
England. Even in his resentments he
was as sincere and steady as clockwork
He once said to Mrs. Fremont, speak
ing of man who had treated him I'M
handsomely, If ever l get the chance
I will do him an honest injury. A
volume could scarcely give more vivid
idea of the old frontiersman than this
phrase.

Fun FOR THE CHINEsE.-The Chinese
converts in Sacramento are represented
to be much pleased with the revival
meetings now being held in that city,
and many of them attend service regu-
larry. They are especially pleased with
the singing, as most of them have hymn
books, and all keep track of the senti-
ment, while a sermon wearies them after
a few moments, their knowledge of Eng
lish being insufficient to enable them to
keep pace with the preacher. During
the course of the sermon, a few nights
ago, Rev. Mr.. Hammond made conf
cal remark which caused an outburst of
laughter from the audience. Though
scarcely understanding what it was
about, the Cinnamon laughed also, and

New York, June 2e.-Joseph Loa-
der was arrested late last night on
complaint of Col. Beecher, for perjury.
Mr.. Price appeared as witness against
him, making affidavit that he did not
know Loader previous I. 1872, and
that he knew nothing about Tilton's
house until recently, and he said that
Loader told him that now was a good
time to make some money. Judge
Morris appeared for Loader, and Tracy
and Hull for complainant The Judge
ordered both Loader and Price to be
locked up for examination. Morris
said that his side would be ready to
begin again within an hour after the
discharge of the jury, using the testi-
mony of Loader and Price.
A dispatch from J. V. Harris, health
officer at Keywest, reports one death
from yellow fever to-day. DR.. Harris
adds: / am sorry TO inform you of
the prevalence of the disease as an
epidemic at this place.
The Tilton-Beecher jury have not
yet agreed this morning. They sent for
the testimony of Beecher and Moul-
ton. and it was furnished. 1t was ru-
mored around the Court building to-
day that Loader, who was arrested on
charges of conspiracy and perjury, has
confessed his guilt and published
an affidavit that his story was manu-
factured and untrue.
Price, the upholsterer, who a few
days since with Loader made an afii-
davit that he had, while making
carpets in the house of Tilton, seen
Beecher and Mrs. Tilton in an equi-
vocal position, to-day swears that the
former story was untrue, and the re-
suit of n deep laid conspiracy.

a thousand spectators.
