The Greeley Heirs.

.S "ACCAGy
FINANCIAnsrRAITs OF THE FAMILY RELIEVED
BY Mr.. REID.
From the Journalist
The journalist published o paragraph re.
Gently that Whitelaw Reid, OF the New York
Tribune, had given a $500 annuity to Mrs.
Estelle Greeley Cleveland. 1t created a good
deal OF surprise among the large circle of the
old friends OF Horace Greeley, who supposed
that his family was amply provided for by the
property he left. Estelle Greeley was his sister.
Her husband, John F. Cleveland, had O COM
Portable place on the Tribune to the time of his
death. He was not money-saver, but he left
small property. When Greeley died, what he
left, with the Cleveland property, amounted to
not less than $25O.Ooo. Mrs. Clevslands two
"reminiscences of Chapp;.4ua. which brought
them u fair sum of money. Ida Greeley mar
ried Colonel Nicholas smith, a kentuckian of
eccentr1citeS Oh dress and his high apprecia-
ton OF his own beauties OF person. The Greeley
and bonds which FAD vas nernanen IN s xofbs
even in the present depression. Colonel
Smith obtained them from Mrs Cleveland, on
of attorney. After Ida Greeley's death he led a
costly life at the best hotels here and the finest
watering places. When Mrs. Cleveland came
To an understanding with him a few months
ago She mad M property left. She threatened
him with exposure and he told her If she would
California, when he would restore her property.
II is said that Gabrielle Greeley's property has
gone the same way. Mrs. Cleveland was reduced
10 such straits that she was compelled to tell
her story to friends, and it came TO Mr.. Keids
ear with the result mentioned. Other generous
friends have also opened their purses to relieve
her Meanwhile the gallant colonel is in Cali
iornta. Ii is said he changes his suit OF cloth
Ing four or five times each day and every time
spends half an hour before the glass admiring
himself He has u smooth boyi,il, white face,
with a cherubic cast and long, curling locks OF
black hair, through which he delights TO run

ported that O lady said To him:

Hygiene Of the Aged.

DR.. l. II Watson, In Popular Science Monthly.
To those who have arrived at an advanced
age without any form of indigestion would
suggest cup Of coffee and a slice OF dry toast
before rising In the morning. The reason why
this should be served while one ia yet in bea is
that very old people, even when perfectly well,
are often subject to slight faintness and
nervous trcmor before rising, and the eXertiOn
necessary to dress often leaves them too faint
to eat. 1t takes but . few moments to prepare
1t, ana, as old people like to rise early, it is
usually an hour Or two before che family are
prepared for the morning meal. Alight luncheon
at noon, and dinner not later than or u O clock.
II Inc dlnner Is taken at noon, and supper at 6
O'Clock, 1t will be found to suit the habits of the
aged better In one way, as old people love to re-
tire early. In most countries, among civilized
nations, the practice OF crowding three meals
into the twelve hours more of day

that 1t seems a heresy to suggest eating

New Cures for COrps.

According to the London Chemiss and DRUG
gist, salicylc plaster has recently been put upon
the English market as cure for corns, buuions
and thickened skins generally. The price is
reasonable enough, but some may prefer to
make it for themselves. Dissolve two drains
each of salfcylic acid and common yellow rosin
In six drains OF suiphuric ether, and paint the
solution over belladonna or opium plaster
spread on swans down. The pigment dries all
most instantaneously, and the plaster is then
ready for cutting up into suitable sizes corns
Considering that the whole does not cost more
than three or four shilifngs per yard, and that
several thousand plasters may be made out OF
that quantity, it is evident that, by retailing at
two or three penny, profit will be made such
Some cOrns are SO painful that neither paint
nor plaster can be endured, something OF the
nature OF a shield alone giving relief For such
cases Is these the following wrinkle may be
appreciated: Take corn-shield, enlarge the
diameter OF the whole to q small extent by
usual way. Then place in the hollow thus
formed over the corn y small quantity Of apy
of the following solutions: Salicylic acid and
extract cannabtS fndica dissolved in ether or
extract cannabis fndica, one-half dram, dis
solved In two drains Of liquor potasse, or q sat-
urated solution of iodine or iodide OF potash in
strong alcohol. The shield does the double SER
vice OF taking the pressure Of the boot or the
corn aud at the same time preventing the
liquid being rubbed of by the sock, while ali OF
rapidly than the usual coilodiOn preparation.
and are consequently much more effective in
their operation.
The Saturated solution of iodine often snc.
ceeds In removing corns and indurated epider-
mis- when other remedies have failed, ana the
