IN THE G Cd YEAR 1898.
A Glance at Some Of the Changes in
the Course of a Century.
From the London Journal.


From the London Journal
With the past 100 years the changes that
have taken place in the social and political
state of Europe are most astounding A
hundred years ago the unfortunate Louis
XVI, was still occupying the throne of his
ancestors The first French revolution, the
precursor of so many successors, had not
yet begun. The great Napoleon was an
unknown officer Of artillery. Germany,
now the most powerful continental nation.
was congeries of petty States. Austria
ruled the Italian States with a rod Of
iron. Greece was the slave of Turkey, and
Algiers nest of pirates. We speak of the
good old times, and some, with Leigh Hunt,
say:
All times when old are good;
but, despite of the pressure of over popula-
ton, there is no boubt that the condition of
the great bulk Of the people is much more
satisfactory now than 100 years ago.
A journal of a century ago describes a
prize fight on the stage of the Haymarket
Theater between a German swordsman
brought over specially by the Duke of Cum
berland and an Irishman who, his wounds
having been sewed up, succeeded in killing
his antagonist in the presence of the young
nobility.
Then as to the fall dress of a gentleman
in 1888. on the queens birthday Georse the
Ill, appeared in cinnamon-colored coat,
embroidered with gold, silver and dia-
monds and the Prince of Wales in a most
magnificent suit of poppy-colored satin
covered with silver-colored spangleS and
paste beads. The mobiles present initiated
the tawdry fney of the court There was
however, one redeeming character-Mr.
Pitt, the Prime Minister, appeared in "a
neat dress of black"

Ruined lly Love.

Says an old dry goods merchant in New
York city: One OF the worst things we
have to contend with In our business, as
far as our unmarried male and female EN-
ployes are concerned. is love. When q
young lady, say i'll the hosiery department,
falls in love with nice young man III the
dress goods department, or any other de-
rarttaent for til 1 matter, there is trouble
ahead for the employers. If the Young
man should happen to return the yonng
ladys affection the trouble is doubled.
How does this make any difference with
uss Well. IN nine cases out of ten thu
tender passion units its victims for work
in the same dry goods store. This is
especially the case of young ladies. Once
they get i'll love with young man at an
other counter their minds, instead of be-
ing Mt their own counters, are continually
ut the young mans counte.. The result
of this is that the love -smitten maid is
absent minded and inattentive to bust
ness. have seen many bright young
clerk who was very valuable to rs become
utterly worthless behind her counter sim
ply because she got to thinking more of a
good looking young man at some either
counter than she did of our business.
It's the same way with the Young men,
too. When they get too far gone there is
only one thing left for us to do, and that
is to discharge them and fill their places.
Ieonfess always regret to take this step,
and neveg do il unless in self defense.
But when the trouble reaches certain
stage there is no alternative. OF course
We 80 about il in roundabout way. and
never give the real cause for dispensing
with their services. We explain that
business is dull or something Of that sort,
and never let on that the little passion
they nurse so tenderly has sacrificed their
positions in the store.

BRANDRETH's PILLS purify the Blood,
stimulate the Liver, strengthen the Kid
neys, regulate the Bowels. They were
introduced in the United States in 1885.
Since that time over fifty millions 81
boxes OF BRANDRETH's PILLS have been
consumed.
This, together with thousands OF con-
vincing testimonials from all parts Of the
world, is positive evidence of their value.
BRANDRETH's PILLS are purely vege-

take at any time.
