Entering the building, l was at
a loss to know what to make of the

some seventy feet long, thirty feet
wide and about thirty feet deep,
having been constructed mt a great

Ofa temperance reform among the
women than there is among the

not the monster by which the wo-

drug is antipyrine. The chemical

French medical college recommends
ell it for headaches and other pains
and disorders, and in this way it
has gained its grasp on so many
thoughtless and nervous women.
In Chicago and many other places
it is said that the habit is gaining
with alarming rapidity, for the
women take it for every i'll. and
cannot believe that its soothing eff

til the habit is thoroughly fixed
upon them. In large doses it has
been known to produce complete
relaxation aud at the same time a
loss OF reflex action and death. In
moderate or tonic doses it often
produces commissions. Its effect as
a stimulant seems to be very much
like that of quinine, and the phys,
icians say that they do not under

THE NOVEL REMEDY USED BY
A BARKEEPERW WHO TURNED
DOCTOR.

In n Of the popular downtown
lunch-rooms the lunchers sit at long tables
and help themselves to butter from a
large-slze roll, which is placed on a plate
near the centre of each table. The other
day the table nearest the front door was
fully occupied, and a young man near one
end was just reaching for the butter,
when the door was thrown open with a
Earring bang, and a bareheaded man, whose
face was flushed with excitement and
who wore a long white apron, dashed in
with a bound, rushed over to the table
mentioned, grabbed up the whole roll of
butter and then tore out again with it IN
his hand. The young man who had been
reaching out for the butter fell off of his
chair and the other guests were greatly
excited at the strange and sudden Incl
dent. A few of the cooler heads took
advantage Of this excitement to put their
checks into their pockets and sneak out
without obeying the injunction, "Please
pay at the desk"
One Of these people had seen the ex-
cited young man disappear with his but
ter IN a doorway just across the street,
and his curiosity prompted him to follow
The place was a small s~oloon, and the
young man was evidently the ~barkeeper.
1t appears that two or three Of his GUS
toners had been standing in front of the
bar examining an old d~ueling pistol. One
Of them raised the hammer, saw no cap
on the nipple and supposed it was not
loaded. He blew in the muzzle and was
just removing it from between his lips
when the hammer fell, there was a blind
ing flash and report, and the poor fellow
received the entire rusty charge full IN
the face. He fell to the floor and every
one became crazy with excitement. Only
the barkeeper had presence of mind, and
as 500 as the man fell he darted out of
the door and across the street, returning
quickly with the butter.
Kneeling at the wounded mans side,
he smeared this butter all over his torn
and powder-stained face and rubbed it in
vigorously. Then he threw a handker-
chief over his face and helped convey the
man to the rear room. Meantime ONE
one had gone for a doctor, and he soon
arrived. When he saw the man he in
quired: "What's that stuff on his face?"
The barkeeper told him what he had
done.
"We'l," said the physician, "you saved
him from being disfgured for life by your
prompt action. That grease has kept the
powder from getting In under the skin,
and I can pick it all out" Luckily there
was nothing but powder in the pistol.
The grains were picked from the young
mans face, and now he is as good as new,
two deeply-imbedded particles of powder
at the side of his nose being the only
visible marks Of the accident He will
never blow into another pistol, and will
always regard presence of mind as a won
derful trait in any man. Chicago Herald.

~COURAGEME FOR THE
MANY.

Very few men have ever been forced
into greatness or success, and very few
successful men have not earned their po-
sition. This should be an encouragement
to young men. Neither, birth, condition,
poverty, lack Of education nor adverse
circumstances can long withstand a de-
termined and energetic nature. Every
one has an equal chance with his fellows
railroad magnates, dry goods ~millionaires,
bank presidents or oil kings, but unless
nature has been dwarfed, or the mind
wholly neglected in it's early training, we
can all be something, and it is our duty
to be the most that WE can. Here are a
few examples of men who began life I'M
der circumstances nore discouraging than
is the lot of most young men Of to-day,
and with less advantages, for there is at
the present time no excuse whatever Tor
a young man to grow up without an edu-
cation or advantages. All of these examples
are sufficiently well known to need no

THE DIFFERENT STAGES AT
WHICH THEY ENTERED
THE GAME.

The Methodists and Baptists have been
the pioneers for a century, and carried
their religion into the wilderness and
established civilization. They drove mules
and drove OK wagons and cleared the
land, built log churches, and when every
thing was sorter comfortable the Presby-
terians came riding up in their buggies
and rockaways and settled among them,
and planted out shade trees and rose
bushes and built a church with a steeple,
and set up the Shorter Catechism and
predestination, and moved around as
though they were the elect. By and by,
when two or three railroads were built,
and the shade-trees had all grown up and
the green grass was growing all around
and around, and the streets were macada-
mixed, and an opera house built, the
E~pissopalians came along in apostolic
succession, with stately steps aud prayer
books and Lent and Mardi Gras all mixed
up together, and they bobbed up serenely
into a fine church with stained glass win
dows and assumed to be the saints for
whom the world was made in six days,
and all very good.-BM Arp, IN atlanta
