AN INTERESTING INTERVIEW.
What the Proprietor of One of the
Leading Magazines Has to Say ON a
Subject of Great Importance.

What the Proprietor of One of the
Leading Magazines Has to Say ON n
Subject of Great Importance.
One of the brightest and most readable
of the magazines is The Cosmopolitan,
which has recently adopted the new fea-
ture of colored illustrations. Mr.. Paul ].
Schlicht the founder of the magazine
gives some interesting experience. He
says
II conceived the idea of colored illustra-
tons while in Europe. AT that time gave
some attention to literature and art mat
ters, although, to tell the truth, was so
nearly dead from malaria that at times
could scarcely hold upmy head. 1t seemed
to me that | would never be able to do
business again or take any real interest in
life, and so, to make long story short,
returned to America. The day landed
in New York, friend invited me to his
home to dinner. He saw my wretched
condition, and declared he had something
he was certain would positively cure it,
More to please my friend than anything
else, | took some of his remedy and, to
my surprise, | slept well that night. You
can well imagine that ! continued to take
1t the next day, and, in brief, within one
month from that time | was entirely
cured of malaria in its worst form, wholly
by the use of Duily's Pure Malt Whiskey
mo quinine, no drugs. During all this
time ] was encouraged to continue.its use
by my wife, whois a firm believer in tenn
perance, as, indeed, | am myself, and, in
fact my wife purchased il by the dozen
for me. When | recovered | felt like q
new man, and 1 have persuaded numbers
of my friends to try the same means for
restoring their health, and the results
have invariably been valuable"
Mr., Schlcht is gentleman whose word
is above question, and the statement he
makes should prove valuable suggestion
TO all sufferers from malaria.

Beatinp the Bookmol.ers.

Yesterday at Vandergnft's book-mak-
ing rooms sharp piece of work was at
tempted by one of the boys who makes a
living by playing the horses After the
third race at Latonia, in which Minnie
Palmer won, the result was not an
nounced at Vans, but was at the other
Turf Exchange. The speculative sport,
going from Hudson's to Vandergrift,
and seeing it not posted at the latter, made
two bets Of $50 each. He then put few
of his friends "on," and some one then
gave the snap away. Vandergrift re-
fused to pay the tickets, but offered to re-
fund the money put up. 1t Is needless to
remark another young man will attend
TO the telephone at VANS to-day.

Kansas City, Kan, seems to be power
fully stimulated by a question as to
whether Kansas City. Kan, is self-re-
specting city Or merely slop-over from
Kansas City, Mo. At least the Kansas

other equally admirable papers claim so,
and no doubt public excitement in Kan

organs. 1t does seem little hard that a

watermelons-it is hard that such a city
should be called ''slop-over" from
another city. Still it does not EXCUSE
the Kansas City (Kansas) Gazette
for ending an editorial protest addressed
to the Wichita EAGLE with ''You are
Mic'Sader." By the way, what is a
"Mic'Sader," anyway - New York
Herald.
We are flattered and rather amazed
that the local affairs of Kansas City,
Kansas, should go away beyond the Mic

One of the boldest engineering schemes
brought forward for long time is that
proposed by Major Powell of damning
ap some Of the canyons of the Rocky
mountains, and converting them into
Immense reservoirs of water, for use III
rrigaJing the plains below, and also
serving to regulate the flow of water in
The western tributaries of the Mississippi.
These immense ravines, extending far
INTO the heart of the mountains, with
their comparatively narrow mouths,
offer extraordinary opportunities for &C
somplishing such a work at a small
expense. The practical value of such
system of reservoirs, however, could
only be determined by actual trial

WARNING TO GUM-CEEWERS.

flliaGelplla ReCOrc.
IF the girls only knew that their eyes
are being ruined by chewing gum they
would shrink from it as they would a
viper," said a Chestnut street optician
yesterday, 1--WE all know to what an
extent this chewing gum is carried on
and what a nasty habit is. I would ad-
wise the girls to stop it at once. If they
have big wad in their mouths while
reading this interview let them throw it
out und swear off, as the drinkers say,
for in one respect these dainty girls are
like drunkards. If they are chronic
gum-chewers they are heir to all the in
firmities that affiict the chronic whisky
drinkers. / have thres girls who were
addicted to the habit, but 1 broke them
from it after a great deal of per-
suasion and some trifling punishment.
The oldest girl has evidences of the
habit. though, and viii carry them TO
the grave.
How are the ewes affected"
We'll, the muscles of the jaw connect
with the spine, and from the spine there
are little fibrous tissues running in all
directions. 4 number of these extend
TO the eyes and are called the optic
nerves. Now. if you will watch a per-
son eating, you viii notice palpitation
of the temples when the lower jaw
moves up and down In the process Of
nlastication. This is caused by the
working OF the optic nerves, which keep
the inner part of the eyes in motion and
exercise the nerves as much as is needed
10 keep them in a healthy condition
These nerves are more tender and sensi-
tive 10 degree than any one would i'm
aglne. When they are overworked they
become shrunkea aud enfeebied. and
then the process of deterioration in
the oversight begins. OF course
the shrinkage of the nerve draws
the eye back into the socket, and
as 1t is connected by slender threads of
tissue 70 the pupil of the eve, this also
becomes affected. The consequence is
that the eye becomes weak and loses Its
coior' 1t becomes an unnatural looking
gray, and the vision is SO much injured
by It that eyeglasses must be resorted 20.

From the quantity of cheese sold for
use in the states Of the west generally it
is very evident that market exists for
all that we can possibly produce, es-
pecially when we bear in mind the fact
that today we are producing bare
fraction of the quantity called for. 1t
will be apparent to those engaged in the
dairy business that at some seasons of
the year they can make cheese to better
profit than butter, and run no risk of
finding an overcrowded market To
succeed as a state it is essentially neces-
sary that our farmers produce the goods
rallied for, diversity their manufactures
and have an eye always to the produc-
ton of the best. A first rate quality of
cheese will always find q ready market
at profitable prices. We can get plenty
of common trash from elsewhere.

because she chewed so much gum Her
eyesight is practically ruined, and she
has crows feet wrinkles about the outer
corners that were caused by the flesh of
the cheeks being forced upward by the
action of the jaw. She is also troubled
with indigestion from the same cause.
These are all symptoms exhibited by a
person who drinks whisky ple1tifully,
and hence the comparison. Parents
ought to take this matter in hand and
see if they cannot rid their girls of the
habit 1t is filthy one outside of the
terrible effect it has upon the human
system. II the parents will keep from
their girls some of the little perquisities
until they stop chewing gum they would
soon give up the habit.

We have often heard the motto:
'Never strike man when he is down."
But here is another that needs needing.
when We encounter skillful and beliger-
ont controversailists of any kind: "Nev-
strike q pugilist when he is up" Es-
Iec..lly is it needful that the cowardly
fellows VINO never observe the former
should be all the more careful to comply
with the latter; for the fact that they so
bravely attack q man when ne has no
friends, may result in their sometimes
being caught in an unfortunate position
where they viii have none. This has SO
wide an application to so many things
personal. social, moral, religious, ecclesi-
astical-that we LET every reader draw
his own moral for his own good, If he
has sufficient wisdom and prudence TO
40 so. II he has not the good Judge
ment to do this. we can only pity him.
The brave man can afford to be magnan-
imous, and lac usually is.

Master Trenholm'S Conclusion.

New York Tribune.
They say that Mr.. Trenholm, the con-
troller of the currency, has bright lit
tie son five years of age, who promises to
be very logical youth of sound sense
and Judgment. One day at the dinner
table he attempted to peel an orange.
his sister reproved him for his awkward
ness. You're not my master" he re-
torted. My father is the only master
in this house. and working away at his
orange he added: My fathers got a
master, too-Mr. Fairchild's his master. :"
He aw9wardly quartered his orange,
and evidently feeling that the problem
was not quite clear yet, continued in an
undertone: And Mr. Fairchild's got a
master-Mr. Cleveland; and Mr.. Cleve-
lands got master-God. Then, tri-
umphantly looking around, he ex-
claimed: I'D rather be God than any

THE UNITED STATES AT PARIS.

Mr. Commissioner CoIman is sending
out circular letter of which the follow
ing is copy:
The congress of the United States
having accepted on the part of this gov
eminent, the invitation of the French
republic to take part in an International
Exposition to be held in Paris In 1899.
has directed the commissioner of agri-
culture by joint resolution approved
May 10 last, to collect and prepare suita-
BILE specimens of the agricultural pro-
duction of the several states and terri
tories of the Union for exhibition at said
exposition.
A special division has been organized
in this department for this purpose, and
a number of special agents have been
appointed by me to collect suitable spec
linens for exhibition.
Statistics support the assertion that
agriculture furnishes four-fifths of our
exports, and it is TO the interest of all
our states and territories that the United
States should be creditably represented
by this department at the great exposi-
ton which the French people have or
ganized at Paris. and which will attract
countless visitors from all countries in
the world. 1t is therefore needless to
dwell upon the Importance of the agri-
cultural section of the United States
exhibit.
In view of these facts, you are cordi-
ally invited to cooperate by every means
in your power In the special work as
slged TO the agents appointed by this de-
partment in this important duty.
If possible one of the agents will call
upon you III the near future: and in the
meantime this department would be
pleased to hear from you and to get your
views as TO the most appropriate pro-
auctions of your section OF the country,
and such as would be most desirable for
the purpose indicated.
