A Lady's Travels.

Miss Marianne North, an English
lady, daughter of the late Frederic
North, M. P, and sister-in-law of John
Arlington Symonds, may be said to
have put a garland about the earth, if
not a girdle. For the last ten or fifteen
years she has been travelling quite alone
all over the world, everywhere painting
its rare trees and flowers with bit of
landscape to show their habitat. Bear
ing credentials from the secretary of
foreign affairs in London, the govern
ment houses in all the colonies have
been open to her, and every facility af-
forded for the prosecution of her object
in the way of guides, escorts and pro-
vision for her personal comfort. She
has climbed mountains, been rowed
down strange rivers or foated down,
supported by inflated skins and been
driven through wild places in camel
wagons, guarded by an escort of natives.
During these travels Miss North has
made more than 900 studies of trees and
plants (some of which have been before
unknown even to the bOtanist), and
each picture containing bit of land
scape showing the habitat of the plant.
This valuable collection she has present
ed to the Kew Gardens, where she has
herself built gallery for them. Miss
North has just reached New York, via
California. Arizona, New Mexico,
Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand and
Borneo. In the last named island she
was the guest of Rajah Brooke, nephew
and successor of the late Raiah, Sir
James Brooke, whose remarkable career
forms such a romantic episode in history

Schurz, SigeI and a Barber,

Probably you have never been shaved

chair, by his not asking me if 7 didn,t

without saying word / felt that he was
man with history. And here it is:
He was educated in the best of German
colleges, and when a mere lad entered
the Prusslan army. He and Carl Schurz
and Sigel were lieutenants in the same
regiment, and were co-revolutionists
The regiment to which they belonged
joined the lnsurrectionists in 1913, and
IN the last battle of the campaign Schel-
pert was wounded, captured and SEN
fenced to death. Schurz, Sigel and most
of the other rebels escaped. Just before
his execution day arrived, Schelpert
made bis escape from prison and came to
America. In New York he met one of
his compatriOts who had married ayoung
girl with whom each had been at school,
This couple was going south and Schel-
pert accompanied them. They stopped
at Madison, Ga. The young revolution

for some honest means of livelihood dis
covered that there was no barber in the
village He thereupon bought a razor,
and opening shop soon shaved his first
man. He found his new profession a
profitable one, giving him a quiet life
and plenty of leisure for pursuing ento-
biological studies, which were his passion.
His friend dying, he married his widow
and lived the life of just and peaceful
man until the late war opened. He then
raised company, and marched at the
head of the first Confederate flag carried
out of Madison, joining the third Georgia.
regiment. He served with this for some
time, and then joined the sixty sixth, of
which he became colonel. AT the close
Of the war he determined to quit fight
ing, as he had tried two revolutions and
had been whipped in both.
He IS man of thorough culture, a
scholar of fine pretentions, and the most
devoted entomologist. The walls of his
shop are covered with cases of butter
flies, bugs and insects of all kinds-ar-
ranged exquisitely. For one of these
cases he was offered 50, 500, and his entire
collection is worth over S. 900. He has
few intimates, but those who know him
best esteem him most-and enjoy nothing
more than an hour with him talking over
the adventures of two wars.

TO MAKE A SANDWICH.
Honein's Shoes.
[ From Temple Bar

The proverbs of a people are often
illustrated by, or take their rise in,
stories of humorous character, and
Arab proverbs are no exception to the
rule. Here is an instance: There was q
certain shoemaker named Honein, and
an Arab came to purchase a pair of
shoes at his shop. The usual bargaining
began, the cobbler asking double the
proper price and the Bedouin Offering
half. The son of the desert, however.
was impatient, and before the proper
mean had been arrived at gave up the
game of haggling and went off in high
dudgeon. Honein resolved on revenge
and hurrying forward on the road where
he knew the Arab would nave to pass,
he threw down one of the shoes.
Presently the Arab came up, and seeing
the shoe, said to himself. Chow like
this is to one of Honein's shoes. If the
other were but with it | would take
them" Honein had in the meanwhile
gone on further still and thrown down
the other shoe, hiding himself close by
to watch the fun. When the desert
Arab came to the second shoe he re-
GREETED having left the first, but, tying
up his camel, went back to fetch it.
Honein at once mounted and rode off
home. well satisfied with the exchange of
a camel for pair of shoes. When the
Arab returned on foot to his tribe, and
they asked what he had brought back
from his journey, he replied: Il have
brought nothing back but Honein' 8
shoes" And the saying became proven
bal for q boOtless errand.

with half a pint of lemon juice, and one
and half pints of milk. This makes q

-four, and lastly, tesspoonful of soda
dissolved in teacurful of sweet milk
and strained; bake Immediately.
CHEESE CAKES.
Turn a quart of milk with a spoon
full of vinegar over the fire; drain the

cloth; add ten eggs, we'll beaten, with
three-quarters Of pound of butter, and
the same of sugar; favor with lemon,

full of sweet milk, three-quarters of
cupful of butter, one and a-half tea
spoonfuls of soda, -four enough to make

PRETTY DISH.
Apple meringue was the crowning
dish of the day. A half dozen medium
sized sour apples were peeled, halved and
cored with a sharp edged little spoon or
vegetable scoop. They were put into
the oven to bake on shallow pan, and
while baking Miss Corson beat the
whites of four eggs, with one heaping
tablespoonful of powdered sugar to each
egg, to a stiff froth; when the apples
were done this was dropped over them,
and the whole put back into the oven
for a moment till the meringue was of
the faintest possible brown, and the de-
hghtful dish was ready.
MAIZE
A savory Improvement on the stereo-
typed sandwich when well prepared may

hour into moderate oven, then place
the mould for a few minutes in hot
water, and turn over the mixture on a
dish. Cover the surface all over with the
beaten whites of some eggs; cut some
bread in very thin slices Invested of the
crust, spread the slices with the mixture

IAPPY RESULTS

which l had experienced. Not only this but
many, who were not conscious of any physical
trouble but who, by my suggestion, began the
use of the remedy which had saved my life,
found their health steadily improving and their
strength continually increasing. So universal,
where used, was this true, that / determined
the entire world should share IN its results. and
| therefore placed the formula for its prepara-
ton in the hands of Mr.. II. H. Warner, of
Rochester, n. Y, a gentleman whom l had
cured of a severe kidney disease, and who, by
reason Of his personal worth, high standing and
hberality in endowing the Astronomical OBJ
servatory and other public enterprises, has be-
come known and popular to the entire country.
This gentleman at once began the manufacture
of the remedy on a most extensive scale, and
to-day Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Cure,
the pure remedy that saved nv life, is known
and used in all parts of the continent.
s. am aware prejudice exists toward pro-
prietary medicines, and that such prejudice is
too often well founded but the value of pure
remedy is no less because il is proprietary
medicine. justifable prejudice exists toward
quack doctors, but Is 1T right that this preju-
dice should extend towards all the doctors who
are earnestly and intelhgently trying to do their
duty? Because Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure saved my life before it became
proprietary medicine, is it reasonable to suppose
that 1t will not cure others and keep still more
from sickness now that it is sold with govern
ment stamp on the wrapper? Such theory
would be childish"
The doctor then paid some high compliments
to American science, and closed his lecture as
follows:
50 How to restore the health when broken and
how to keep the body perfect and free from
disease must ever be mans highest study
That one of the greatest revelations of the
present day has been made in ascertaIning the
true seat of health to be in the kidneys and
liver, all scientists now admit and / can but
feel that the discovery which have been per-
mitted to make. and which have described to
you, is destined to prove the greatest, best and
most reliable friend to those who suffer and
long for happiness, as well as to those who de-
