Startling Discovery.

The discovery by the inhabitants of To-
cality hitherto unvisited by the pestilent
scourge of fever and ague, that it exists in
their very midst, is decidedly startling. Such
discoveries are made at every season, in every
part Of the Union. Subsequently, whenit i:
ascertained, as it invariably is at such times,
through the valuable experience Of some one
who has been benefited and cured, that Hos
letters Stomach Bitters is thoroughly efica
cious eradicator of the malarial poison, and &
means of certifying the system against it, a
feeling of more security and tranquility
reigns throughout the whole neighborhood
Besides the tebrile forms Of malaral disease
dumb ague and ague cake are removed by the
potent action of the Bitters, to which science
also gives its sanction as a remedy for rheum
atism, dyspepsia, constipation, liver com
plant, debility, kidney troubles, and all dis
eases imPairing the organs of digestson anc

In Guatemala.

Perhaps the people of Guatemala are
as clearly as others, but according to
our observation the common practice
was to allow the dogs to lick the dishes,
which received no additional washing.
1t was the custom, also, at the table
d'hote in the hotels to finish.a meal by
filling the mouth with water and squirt
ing it on the tiled floor. Once when
we stopped at wayside house to get
some coffee the sonora made a little
fire out of doors, put the coffee in a
very black pot to boil, and, after fan
ming the reluctant fire with her straw
hat, threw herself on the ground near
by to rest and smoke her puro. When
the pot was near to boiling she reached
out her bare leg and tested the tempera-
ture of the contents with her toe, as a
northern cook might have used her
finger. AT hotel tablecloth served
also for napkins, and the dishes were
of many patterns, cOlOrs and degrees
of dirtiness. 1t seemed absurd to call
for clean plate, but we did so to see
what would happen. A large tame
duck used to waddle under my chair
and at last would take bits of tortilla
from my hand. Several NANCY dogs
and cats had to be driven out whenever
we sat down to eat, but the hens were
not disturbed, for they contributed SO
much to our larder that they were priv.
legged, and one nested in an old felt hal
on corner shelf, while another came
cackling out of one of the dark bed
rooms that opened on either side.-W

The Truthful Landlord.

Not far from the city of Montgomery,
in the state of Alabama, OH one of the
roads running from the city lives jolly
landlord by the name of Ford. In fair
weather or in foul, in hard times or in
soft, Ford would have his joke when
ever possible. One bitter stormy night,
or rather morning, about two hours be-
fore daybreak, he was aroused from his
slumbers by loud shouting and knocks
at his door. He turned out, but sorely
against his will, and demanded what
was the matter. 1t was dark as tar,
and as he could see no one, he cried
out: Who are you, there?" "Three
lawyers from Montgomery, was the
answer, we are benighted and want
to stay all night" Very sorry l can't
accommodate you so far, gentlemen.
Do anything to oblige you, but that's
impossible" The lawyers-for they
were three of the smartest lawyers in
the state and ready to drop with
fatigue-held a consultation, and then,
as they could do no better, and were too
tired TO go another step, they asked:
" Well, can't you stable our horses and
give us chairs and fire till morning."
"Oh, yes, l can do that, gentlemen.
Our learned and legal friends were soon
drying their wet clothes by a bright fire
as they composed themselves to pass the
few remaining hours in their chairs,
doing and nodding and now and then
uttering word or two of impotence
as they waited for daylight. The
longest night has morning, and at
last the sun came along, and then in
due time good breakfast made its APP
pearance, but to the surprise of the
lawyers, who thought the house was
crowded with guests, none but them
selves sat down to partake. Why,
Ford, thought your house was so full
you couldn't give us a bed last night?"
said one of the travellers. 81 didn't
say So" Ford replied. You didn't?
What in the name of thunder, then,
did you say?" "You asked me to let
you stay here all night, and said it
would be impossible, for the night was
two-thirds gone when you came. If
you only wanted beds why didn't you
say SOP" The lawyers had to give it
up. Three of them on one side and
the landlord alone had beat them

the open prairies of the Northwest when
the causes which operate to produce
these storms shall be so well known
that ample warning may be given of
their approach. 1t should be said Il,
however, that as the country becomes
more thickly settled these storms will
lose much of their terror. Fatalities
have been reported only Cor mainly
from the sparsely-settled districts, where
the houses are miles apart. The storm
was equally severe in other localities,
but shelter was more easily found.
Moreover, in many cases suffering and
death resulted from sheer imprudence.
A blizzard is something that il will not
do to take risks upon. Presence of
mind, too, will often avert disaster.
More than one person saved his life in
the recent storm by covering himself
up in the SNOWY Minneapolis Cor.

Winter Woods.

The woods that summer beautifed
with verdure sweet and colors fair
And filled with muslc's joyous tide
Were all dlsmantled brown and bare;
When, silently, an unseen hand
Transformed them by its magic power,
And robed and radiant now they stand,
Each aisle and glade and sightless bower.
The pines aloft, in plumes of snow,
Like sentinels defend the way.
And sturdy hemlocks droop below
with Jewels decking every spray;
Around the oak, whose russell leaves
Bravely defy the wintry storm,
The woodbine's glistening tendrils weave
An arabesque of curious form.
Through leafiess arches here and there,
Statues appear Of purest white,
OF hermit old, or wood nymph fair
Or birds. with wings just plumed for flight
The brown ferns bend with crystal beads
That fall and gem the marble floor,
Each tangled clump of briery weeds
With diamond dust is powdered DER.
Oh wondrous frostl we soon shall see
Naught of this frail creation fair,
For spring, with spirit blithe and free,
VIII reign triumphant everywhere.
Though from thy rude embrace we turn
To meet her smile without regret,
Though for her sweet caress we yearn,
Thy lovely forms Wen meier forget.

Like cloud upon mountain,
Like bubble on a fountain.
am seen and pass away as in a dream.
For the wild wind drives me ever
Over land and sea and river
Till the sunshine shall dissolve me in its beam,
am swept on the wings of the storm,
And rush 'twixt the earth and the sky
The earth that seems shapeless In form
And the moon that is couded on high;
l rush DER the oceans dark waste,
And the white spray leaps upward to me,
Till feel in its kiss as we mngle the taste
OF the salt of the boisterous sea.
Ipass Ger ship
And hover and dip
Midst the masts and the sails and the shrouds,
But the wind, with a whirl,
Makes me eddy and curl
And bears me once more to the clouds.
From the place of my birth
Iswoop downward to earth,
am borne DER the plain and the hill,
And long for my rest
In the grounds snow.clad breast,
Or home in the stream or the ril- Temple Bar.

MISS ALLEN.
MRS. CHAPMAN.

Mrs. Chapman is of English parentage and
was born in Wisconsin in 1860, but went with
her parents to Iowa when years of age. At
IS she entered the state agricultural school
at Ames, Ia, and, studying and teaching at
the same time, was graduated in 1880 at the
head Of her class. Her subsequent callings
were teacher in the public schools and jour
nalst She married Mr.. Leo Chapman, editor
of The Mason City Republican, who on &C
count of i'll health in 1885 went to California
and assumed the position of local editor on
The San Francisco Chronicle. He sent for
his wife, but was soon after taken suddenly
i'll and died. Mrs. Chapman readily found
employment on The Chronicle, and at the
same time lectured ON the Pacific coast.
While in California she conceived the idea OF
the necessity of an American party, and a
year ago returned, and since then has been
occupying herself with the work of establish
ing such an organization. Whether the new
party will make its own national nomina-
tions, or content itself with acting directly
in the matter Of state issues and joining
