Horses Stolen.

During Thursday night very valuable
pair Of dark bay horses, with black names
and tails, weighing about 1400 pounds each
were stolen from the town farm, Deering
which is located this side Of Cumberland
Mills. They are valuable horses. The
thieves, in order to escape detection, and pre-.
vent any sound being heard, laid mats down
from the stable floor to the road, over which
they drove the horses. Yesterday the
horses were found in an adjoining field, the
thieves having given them up probably be-
cause they were too fat to trot fast enough
to take them any distance from the town be-
fore they would be pursued and overtaken.

Disease finds its easiest victims among the de-
bilitated, worn out and weakly, and those of SEN
sltive stomach and poor digestion.
SANFoRD's GINGER, compounded of Imported
Ginger, Choice Anomalies, and the best of French
Brandy, is a most grateful stimulant to the stom-
ach, speedily promoting digestion and assimila-
ton of food and hence fortifes the system against
prostrating influences.
As pure fruit stimulant for the aged,
mentally and physically overworked, for delicate
females, especially mothers, and as means of re-
forming those addicted to an excessive use Of al
cohoic stimulants, it is invaluable.
Never travel without sANFoRD's GINGER.
Beware of worthless "gingers" extensively urged
by mercenary druggists and dealers on those who
call for and desire only

FROM WASHINGTON, D. C.

My DEAR CHRONICLE ''Woman's Chronicle -
| should have written to be exact, but as the sub
ject matter of my letter is going to be, as you will
discover latitudinous (O, shall not be narrow
in it's address.
This city was last week literally oyerrun, theo
reticaly, by visiting women to attend the Wo-
mans International Council, and even now.
though its session closed on the last of the week.
one hears the resounding voice of few of its
councillors who have fingered near the scene of the
meeting. The papers here gave good deal of
space to the dongs Of the women delegates both
in and out of the council chamber, and nearly
each day they would print serio-comic editorial
on matters generally appertaining to the council.
Mrs. Stanton, Mrs. Livermore, Miss Anthony, and
a host of known and unknown, foreign and do
nestle" lights were present, and every woman who
had can dea'' was invited to ventilate it, Thev be-
wall no lost opportunities, for, as one of the daily
papers published in referring to band of music,
being in the council chamber, "it only had one
chance to play one tune in twenty -four hours, and
that very short tune indeed, as the ladies re-
CURED twenty three hours and forty-ive minutes
for talk" But you know that slur (?) was writ
ten by man and did not count then for more
than ten cents on the dollar.
The work of the council was good and will
doubtless do great deal in furtherance of its
many Objects | cannot mention " for want of
space /" what those objects were. Doubtless the
CHRONICLE has already informed its readers of
them.
Now that the Lenten season is over, the rumble
of the carriage is heard again. Fashion, with her
spring bonnet and dress, is being driven from

THE following is taken from late number of
the Christian Standard: Gan ironically amusing
or amusingly ironical thing happened at Harvard
university last month. There is a prize of one
hundred dollars, the highest attanable for English
dissertations. 1t is only rarely that the full prize
is awarded, and never except when some paper of
extraordinary merit is presented This year there
was dissertation upon "The Roman Senate I'M
der the Empire" of such surprising excellence
that the committee unanimously agreed to assign
it the full prize of one hundred dollars. Upon
opening the accompanying letters, however, they
were surprised to find that the paper was written
by one of the girls in the annex, Miss E. B. Pear
son. Now one of the committee, Prof. Torrey,
was much opposed to the annex-because women
had neither brains nor bodies capable of such
severe study as was imposed upon masculine I'M
feathered bipeds at Harvard. Still the committee
was equal to the occasion and promptly withdrew

would not enter on my list OF friends,
Though graced with polished manners and fine sense,
Yet wanting sensiblity the man
Who needlessly sets foot upon
These lines of Cowper's seem best to express
the tenderness of Henry Bergh's nature. The un-
selfshness that must predominant in the spirit of
the philanthropst is quality so uncommon in
these days of hard-fsted money getting that the
eyes of the entire country have for years observed
the dongs of this great and good man with OBJ
vious interest. He died on Monday, March 18th,
in the 65th year of his age
He was of peculiar physique, something over
six feet high, erect spare with most pathetic
face, whose expression told plainly that he had
borne more perhaps than one mans share of the
burden of the wrongs heaped not only on helpless
humanity but the more helpless brute creation.
The work he has done lives after him. and the
society of which he was the founder now numbers
four hundred thousand members. 1t is proposed
to erect monument to his memory in one of the
public squares in New York city. His nephew,
Henry Bergh, has been elected president of the
New York Humane Society.

REV. DR.. TALMAGE, in a recent sermon, dls-
courses upon the good advice given in newspaper
articles to the pulpit, and says the aity are say
ing many true things in regard to the arousal OF
ministers; they want more animation, more snap,
more directness more fire. But the reverend
gentleman also sees the other side, and believes
that a turn about is fair play and as the pews
have been successful in waking up the pulpit, it is
now time for the pulpit to wake up the pews. He.
has no patience with sleepy, stupid congregation,
and thinks such audiences act as "wet blanket"
upon the preacher and at1irms that "there are
some churches in which the unarousable look is so
chronic, so hereditary, and so perpetual that we
never want to preach there. DR.. Talmage
seems to possess that gift, the genius of hard
common sense. He knows that preachers are not
unlike other men, and evidently disapproves of the
two extremes, one of which minister is almost
sure to encounter-too much petting and high liv-
ing or not enough of either. He says
One reason why the apostles preached so pow
erfully was that they had healthy food Fish was
cheap along Galilee, and this, with unbolted
bread, gave them plenty of phosphates for brain
food. These early ministers were never invited
out to late suppers, with chicken salad and dough-
nuts. Nobody ever embroidered slippers for the
big foot of Simon Peter, the fisherman preacher.
Tea parties, with hot wafies, at 10 o'clock at
night make namby-pamby minister's but good
hours and substantial diet, that furnish nitrates
for the muscle and phosphates for the brain and
carbonates for the whole frame, prepare man for
effective work See that your ministers
have full haversacks. Feed them on cruel during
the week and on Sunday they will give you cruel.

NEVER quarrel with your neighbor. Those who
try to outwrangle troublesome neighbor 60 to
work from the wrong direction. Two boys trying
to pass savage dog were good illustration of
this truth The one, taking stick and pointing
it at the dog, marched boldly up, but didn't pass
him by. The other tried very different plan;
he threw him piece of meat, and while the dog
was busy eating it, the little fellow slipped by.
Slip round fuss whenever you can. If your
neighbor is quarrelsome, slip by while he is quar-
reling with some one else. If you cannot do this,
conquer him with kindness and civility. If he
does not seem to improve, be more polite and
kind. You may never win his affections but you
will surely gain his respect, and the knowledge
that you have acted generously will warm and
strengthen your own heart for still better deeds.
Every time you love anybody, you have only
drawn the curtain back and let the sun in upon
your own heart
The sandal tree perfumes when riven,
The ak that laid II low;
Let man, who hopes to be forgiven,
Forgive and bless his foel

SENATOR BERRY, of Arkansas, it is said, has
come out in favor of tax on incomes Certainly!
Why didn't he come out before? The man with
an income ought to pay taxes; he has something
wondering how he is to pay it. The man without
any income bears such heavy and continual tax
upon his ingenuity that he ought to be relieved of
all anxiety concerning the public treasury

THE faculty of the University of Wisconsin
awarded scholarship honors to the senior class on
March 10Th. These honors are bestowed upon
certain number of those who have maintained the
highest standing in the college work during the
four years of the course. There is one popularity
of this award to which the attention of DR.. Ham
mond and Senator Ingalls,, of Adebert college, is
called. 1t is that while there were eight students
SO honored, the first honor was carried off by
lady student. If the regents of the university
will only apply to the trustees of Adelbert college,
they may learn something-namely, that this will
never do. If girls are allowed to come in thus
and carry off the honors the boys will go where
they can find easier competition. DR.. Hammond
could prove to the faculty that this girl had not
brain enough to gain the first honor and Ingalls,
that she had not muscle enough to defend it,

"WHAT is the reason l don't get my paper?"
said pretty little lady to postman last Monday
well, said he, looking very wise, "you see it's
woman's paper and they pretend to come out
on Saturday But you'll never get your paper
them you'll most likely get it on Tuesday, and
after awhile on Wednesday, and by and by you
won't get it at all" He was right in thinking
himself very "cute." We think him "too cute, ="

men are employed at the postoffice

The blizzard in New York city has brought to
notice two heroines at least. Miss OLeary and
Miss Martin, two teachers, managed after great
difficulties to reach the school through the binding
storm. They were the only teachers present dur
ing the day, and only sixteen pupils made their
appearance The two teachers would not trust
the children to 60 home alone, neither did they
like the idea of remaining at the school all night;
but they were equal to the emergency Procuring
rope, they tied the pupils in line, themselves
in front, and in this way visited the homes and de-
livered each child in safety. The citizens living in
the vicinity of the school held meeting and ex-
pressed their admiration Of the bravery displayed
by the two ladies.
