It was too tough job for him, however,

he knocked under aud went away. The fun

Avoid Wrinkles.

Al wrinkle, once made, is indelible;
it has come to stay. There is no such
thing as wiping out wrinkles. In men
they are often honorable evidence Of
hard mental labor; in women they are
usually evidence of coming age, al
though care and suffering have much
TO do with them. Sometimes fair fore
heads are prematurely Wrinkled from
a nervous habit of elevating the eye
brows, and from a too great and too
constant pressure of the pillow on one
or both sides of the head while sleep
ing. And just here comes a fact worth
remembering. IL the forehead has es-
capped wrinkles, crows feet are premar
turely seen about the corners Of the
ewes. We all see the crows feet in
men and women whose broWs are
smooth and young looking. They are
the result Of sleeping On the right and
left sides. The pressure upon the
temple and cheek leaves wrinkles at
the corners and underneath the eyes
which disappear in a few hours, but
finally become SO fixed that neither
hours nor ablutions will abate them.

a Rows Rig

There is no more lucrative employment
to-day id England in the way Of manual
labor than that Of a light weight jockey,
saws the New York Herald. There are
lads enough sufficiently light to ride at
the lowest handicap weight, but few of
them have the strength to hold a horse
together, or to be of any use to their
mount at the termination of arace. When
such q boy is found he can command al
most any sum for his services. The pres
emit champion light weight in England is
Martin, who has won quite q number OF
races this season, including the Casare-
witch handicap, on DON Juan. Pendra-
gon, Of the Referee, in speaking Of Mar
tin. says: He might very easily be
used by some fiction writer of the future
In proof of the more than extraordinary
nature Of successful Jockeys career when
success comes to him exceptionally early.
Martin is, I believe, only a little over ff-
teen. Anyhow, he is not sixteen, and he
still goes to school. As the weight at
which he can ride proves, he is, exceptto
Newmarket notions, very much under
sired even for fifteen, and yet It is antici-
Dated that his earnings In the saddle for
the wear of grace 1888 will not amount to
anything less than So, 000-fve thousand
poundsl Now, whatever may be other
wise thought of jockey life. there is cause
for reflection when we think Of q small
boy with shining morning face, creeping
unwillingly to school, who car earn this
amount or more per annum.

The Lady and the Poet.

The beautiful and highly-cultiyated
daughter of one of the old Roman mobiles,
the Duke of Gallese, was introduced tc
the Italian poet, Signor D'Annunzio.
Her kinsfolk never dreamed that a lady
of such great expectations and high blr.h
could run any risk from an intimate ac-
quaintance with a man risen from the
lower ranks. The two walked and chat
ted together, but while the young lady's
friends supposed that she was talking of
intellectual matters, it turned out that
the conversation of the couple turned
in a very different direction. The duke
learned, to his horror and anger, that his
daughter had dared to betroth herself to
the poet. As a matter of course, he re-
fused to give his sanction to the mar
rage, whereupon the lovers took the train
to Florence, where they were made man
and wife. This last step made the duke
SO indignant that he had a legal docu-
ment drawn up, by which he disinherited
his daughter; but the father and the man
afterward so far overcame the aristocrat
iii him that he settled upon her for life a
yearly income of 5000 lire. The story
has since obtained an almost tragical
completeness by the separation Of the
duke from his own wife. He accused
her of having secretly favored the cause
of D,Annunzio, and of allowing the low
ers to hold interviews after the father had
prohibited intercourse between the two.
He has consequently broken up his house
hold in Rome, made a settlement upon
his duchess, and declared that he viii
henceforth live and die as il he had nei-
ther wife nor child.-London Echo.

Legitimate Work.

Talking about laboring women, I
wish it were in my power to persuade
young girls who wonder what they
shall do to earn their living. that it is
really better to choose some business
that is in the line of a Woman's natu-
raj work. 0 There is a great repugnance
at the Thought of being a servant, but
a girl is no less a servant to the mar
who owns the shop where she stands
all day behind the counter than she is
where she waits upon the table or
cooks the dinner in a pleasant house /;
and to my mind there would not be a
minutes question between the two
ways of going out to service. The
wages are better, the home is better,
the freedom and liberty are double in
one what they are in the other. If,
instead of the sham service that is
given by Ignorant and really overpaid
servants to-day, sensible New England
girls who are anxious to be taking care
Of themselves and earning good wages
would fit themselves at the cooking
schools, or any way they found availa-
BILE, they would not long wait for en-
ployment and would be valued i'm
mensely by their employers. When
one realizes how hard it is to find good
women for every kind of work in our
houses, and what prices many rich peo-
pie are more than willing to pay if
they can be well suited, it is a wonder
more girls are not ready to seize the
chances. 1t is because such work has
been almost always so carelessly and
badly done, that it has fallen into dis
repute, and the doors of it have taken
such low rank. Nobody takes the
trouble to fit herself properly, but
women trust to being taught and find.
ing out their duties after they assume
such positions, not before.

Artesian Wells

Denver, which has long been so made
quately and extensively supplied with
water, is nov rejoicing in four artesian
wells, which geld 400, 600 gallons of an
excellent quality per day; and we are
told that she will loon have several 9TH
ers in operation sufficient to supply the
growing wants of that young and flour
ishiDg city.
The vast plains lying east and west of
the Rocky Mountains will doubtless ere
long have q great demand for similar
wells, by g of which millions of
acres now waterless and barren can be
rendered arabic. Wherever there is the
scent of water, these far Western lands
are of unrivaled fertility, resembling
Peru, which has been likened to q ICON
~servatory without glass;
This method of irrigating from subter-
ranean reservoirs is Of immense moment
to the jewellers amid these sterile regions;
and the labor of boring to a depth of
only 375 feet-as at Denyer-seems light
when compared with the {, 200 feet of the
saline well at Neusalzwerk, Prussia.
The reservoirs Of petroleum springs are
of a similar nature to those of a~rtesian
wells, and the process by which the oil
is obtained, is precisely the m
Among the serious methods of irriga-
ton which England is adopting for her
Eastern possessions will probably be the
Introduction of these wells into the desert
like portions of India, where grim, gaunt
famine has SO often marched with mer-
CHESS, all-conquering tread.
For the past twenty years French en-
gineers have been actively engaged In
sinking a great number of these wells
along the western border of the Great
Sahara, the province of Constantine alone
containing not less than $50, while the
work is progressing slowly, but surely, to-
ward the interior. Among the phenome-
ma brought to light by this boring, is the
finding of fishes and crabs of delicious
flavor at a very great depth. Scientists,
as usual, are ready withmany sage obser-
vations, all, however, being mere theory.
The spirit of progress is abroad re-
claiming the waste places of the earth,
and literally verifying the Scripture
prophecy that t'the desert shall rejoice
and blossom as the rose.n
We believe the time is coming when
mans inventive genius and wonderful
power of achievement will reduce all the
deserts of the earth to smiling beauty
and happy utility; when he will indeed
be stmonarch of all he surVeys.o-Bata-

Mr.. CHARLES W. MoRR1s, eagle" office,
Pittsield, Mass, writes, May %, 1888: "For
several months my wife's mother (Mrs. Amy
Boyce) had been in a very precarious condl
ton with dropsy or Br'ght's disease OF the
kidneys, and having used all methods and
measures for her restoration in the line OF
treatment by our leading physicians, ana
having failed to benefit her, her family de-
SPARED of seeing her relieved, and gave her
up to die. Happening to run across the tes-
timony Of a Mrs. Dawley, who had been cured
of similar sickness by using Hunts Remedy,
we at once procured a bottle of it, and COM
menced giving it as directed. After using it
three days she was SO far improved that she
could get from her bed to her chair without
assistance Ia circumstance that had not hap
pened for months). Previous to taking it
she was troubled more or less with short
breath, requiring a continuous tanning 10

We continued the use of Hunts Remedy, and
on the foqrth bottle she was able to set up all

and body upward to the lungs. The tenth
day the bloating left her bowels, and now she
is not swollen above the knees. Her kidneys
were very bad at the time, discharges being
of a bloody character and emitting a sicken-
ing odor. I can say that the change IN her
case has been wonderful, and Hunts Remedy
has worked a miracle in her"
