Skates.

Skates have advanced to perfection
even ahead of their riders. Mr.. Cook, of
Hoboken, now about tifty-tive years old,
has followed the skate in its advance
ment and gives a history of its march
of improvement: "When l was boy
skaters kept a heavy pair of boots just
to skate in. The heels were big and
stout Into the heel was bored a hole
for the screw or brad which fastened the
back part of the skaters heel. A gimlet
was as necessary to an outfit as the
skates, as the hole would ALWAYS be
plugged with ice or mud. Then the
straps and buckles were wonderfully ad-
justed and the ends of the straps tucked
away. The keen wind froze my hand
once while was putting on my skates
The straps were sure to work loose in
some part or else raise blister or two
Then the rockers we're invented, and
remember my JOY when first put them
on and SKINNED over the meadows |
thought that the acme of skaters had
been reached. It was difficult at first
to get over the practice of trying to dig
the heel of the skate into the ice, as of
yore, when one wished to come to a
stand. But rockers have had their day,
although I have seen them in late years
over in Jersey.
eff I thought that rockers were per-
lection, what can say now of the club
skates, although even they are now an
old story, having been on the market
about ten years, l should judge, The
rivals are the American and the Acme,
and there have been many lawsuits about
the priority of patents, and all that.
Both styles were nearly alike in prin-
ciple, but on the American club a key
was necessary. Now pair ofskates can
be adjusted snap snap-as quick as that
A lever in the middle opens the skate to
receive the SHOE Then it is pulled back
into position, and there you are. don't
believe there is room for improvement. J."

HEALTH HINTS.

It is said that the skin of boiled egg
is the most efficacious remedy that can be
applied to boil Peel it carefully, wet
and apply to the part affected. 1t will
draw off the matter and relieve the sore
ness in few hours.
The following remedy is given by an
exchange as cure for cold: Boil two
ounces linseed in quart of water; when
boiled strain, add two ounces sugar
candy, half pint of molasscs, juice of
three lemons; mix well, put on the stove,
let it come to boil, then take it off, and
as soon as cold bottle it; take a teacup-
full before going to bed; the hotter you
drink it the better it is.
Referring to the medicinal use of water,
of which much is written of late, the
Popular Science Ne,os says: "Those who
have morbid conditions of the stomach
and bowels, which do not so far impair
the general vigor as to prevent attention
being given to the ordinary duties of life,
can often use large draughts of water,
especially in the morning, with manifest
advantage. Ob-tinate constipation is
thereby removed, the normal periataltic
motions of the bowels are restored, and
the secretions may be vastly improved.
We notice the salutary influence of water
drinking upon many of those who resort
to the so-called mineral SPRINGS which
abound in the country. 1t is not neces-
sary that these springs should hold alb
normal quantities of salts of any kind to
effect cures; it is only necessary that the
water should be pure.n

punishment. A man must indeed be
prison tough" who can endure lying
down on a hard pavement to sleep and
dieting on limited bread and water. If
he keeps up a week, he must indeed be
tough In every fiber of body and stomach.
The interest of prison contractors is, OF
course, to have men punished in such
way that they will not be long detained
from work. In former times they were
said to favor the padding performance,
as it did not keep a man long from work.
Here at Sing Sing the convicts eat ina
huge, low-studded dining room. They
are permitted to read religious papers
only; they are not allowed to make trink-
cts in their cells; they are never per-
mitted any recreation in the prison yard.
The discipline is severe. No soups are
made here, Warden Brush believing that
spoon diet is unsatisfactory in every way.
Stews, however, are prepared, and hash
is a regulars article of diet, and is pre-
ferred to soup by the old prison Ground
ers," who have tried many prison bills OF
fare

Herb StreWers.

At the coronation of James H., in the
latter part of the seventeenth century, the
ancient custom of strewing flowers and
sweet herbs was revived.
The hereditary herb-woman to the
king" had charge of the ceremony, as
sisted by six young ladies' In the an
cient picture may be seen an illustration
where the herb-strewers appear, with
deep pointed bodices and open robes,
Topped back to show rich petticoats; ruff.
fes fall from elbow to wrist, and long
gloves and hoods complete the fanciful
dress.
Baskets, each containing two bushels
of flowers and fragrant herbs, were borne
by the fayrc maidens, and "were three
times renewed This festive occasion
made gorgeous display of spring blooms
in profusion; violets, primroses, cow
slips, pansies, bluc-bells, with stores of
sweet-brier twigs and other herbs of
grace, formed carpet of beauty and
odors rich and rare, over which the gold
broidered slippers of the lovely queen,
Mary of Modena, and her fayre attend
ants trod daintily, as passing from hall to
abbey they listened to drums, and trum-
pets, and the choir singing
10 Lord, grant the king long life."

WISE WORDS.

The fewer words the better prayer.
Agreeable advice is seldom useful adj
vice.
Grief hallows hearts even while it ages
heads.
False modesty is the last Retirement of
vanity.
The weak may be joked out of any
thing but their weakness.
All the whetting in the world can never
set razor's edge on that which hath no
steel in it.
The chains of habit are generally too
small to be felt till they are too strong
to be broken.
The greatest pleasures often originate
in pain; and the worst pains usually
spring out of pleasures.
If we did but know how little some en-
Joy of the great things that they possess,
there would not be much envy'in the
world.
We blame fortune for not visiting us,
whereas, in many cases, the fault lies at
our own door in doing nothing to invite
her in.
A mans desires always disappoint him
for, though he meets with something that
gives him satisfaction, yet it never thor
oughly answers his expectations.
Good manners is the art of making those
people easy with whom we converse.
Whoever makes the fewest persons uneasy
is the best bred in the company.
True good breeding is nothing more
than the practice of the common princi.

tended to all the concerns of common
life.
A contented mind is the greatest bless.

if in the present life his happines arises
from the subduing of his desires, it will
arise in the next from the satisfaction Of
them.

The First Woman Who Wanted to Vote

At meeting of the American His
torical society the Hon. John L. Thomas
read paper entitled Margaret Brent,
the First Woman in America to Claim
the Right to Vote"
Two hundred and forty years ago, in
st. Mary's City, on the river of the same
name, flowing into the Potomac river,
near Point Lookout, Margaret Brent lived.
She landed there with her sister Mary
in November, 1888, aged thirty eight
years, five years after the landing of Leon
ard Calvert, brother of Lord Governor, and
provincial governor of Maryland. Mr..
Thomas thought he must have been much
in love with Margaret Brent. Mr.. Thomas
gave an account of the exciting
troubles from 1884 to 1880, the
period of the dissensions about Kent
island and the Claiborne rebellion. Mar
garet Brent, Mr.. Thomas says, only ap-
pears at times in the annals of the
colony, but she was evidently woman
of great influence. History says she was
connected with Lord Baltimore by blood
or marriage. Mr.. Thomas described her
as having brains, courage, executive
ability, and great loyalty to any cause
she espoused. He thought she must have
been handsome, or she could not have
held her power. Men control by brain
power, but there must be something
more than brain power when woman
controls. In 1647 Leonard Calvert died.
He had not time to write a will. He
said to Margaret Brent, "Take all and
pay ALL" Then he asked for a private
conference with her, and she received
his dying words. She took the gov
ernor's house and lived in it, Later she
sold it to Governor Stone. AS Leonard
Calvert was agent for Lord Baltimore, she
claimed control of all rents, issues and
profits of Lord Baltimore, and did not
care if the latter was pleased or not. The
court confirmed her in this position.
She claimed she had right to vote in
the assembly as the representative of
Leonard Calvert and also of Lord Balti,
more. She claimed not one but two
votes. On January 81, 1913, when the
Legislators assembled at Fort st. Johns
she demanded her right to vote as a
member of the general assembly of the
State of Maryland.
Her subsequent career was sketched to
show that this refusal to let her have a
vote in colonial affairs did not break her
spirit In 1851 she was sixty years old.
There is no record of her death, but it
is supposed she died in Lancaster county,
Virginia
