Such is Fame.

The first news the President of
the United States received of the
death of General Grant came in this
shape: "Grover Cleveland, Wash
ington. Grant dead; send two non
commissioned officers anG two pri-
Yates. w. J. Arkell." After that,
telegrams signed Arkell poured into
Washington at the rate of four an
hour. General Hancock was sent
to Mount McGregor to arrange for
the funeral. When the fact that he
was to do this became known he
became the recipient of many tele-
grams with the same signature.
General Hancock, on reaching Sar-
atoga, went at once to the house OF
the late Joseph w. Drexel. "Mr.
Drexel," said he, "who the devil is
Arkell?" "This is he," said Mr..
Drexel; ''let me introduce you.
Mr.. Arkell, General Hancock. .
Arkell mused moment as he held
the Generals hand. Then he said :
"Hancock? Hancock? Let me see ;
Army or Navy?"-N. Y. Sun.

" Pussy WilloWs."

Mrs. Cleveland has by no means
lost her sway over the fashions,
though she no longer holds the po-
sition of Presidents wife at the
White House. BY a very simple
act of hers, a complete revolution
has been caused in the flower trade
throughout the more civilized part
of the States.
At a luncheon party given by her
some three weeks since, the table
was decorated with willow catkins,
and she wore cluster of them in
her bodice. The fluffy softness of
the greenish yellow catkins has OBJ
tanned for them in America the
name of Pussy Willow, and there
is now quite a craze for them, not
only in their natural condition as
table decorations, but in their coun-
terfeit presentment by the needle s
art.
The florists of New York were al
a loss to understand the sudden
food of orders for Pussy Willows
until they heard Of the now famous
luncheon, symphony in silver
gray," to which the soft sheenY
yellow-green of the willow buds
added the crowning note. Nov the
artif cial flower makers are all busl'

The Way They Do in China.

Some difficulty was recently ex-
perienced in the poultry depart
ment on Chris Danberg's ranch. A
number of able-bodied hens per-
sisted in setting instead of devoting
their attention to the production of
eggs. After all known remedies
were exhausted, the Chinese cook
came forward and asked why they
did not put feathers in the noses Of
the hens. He said that is the way
they do in China. The Mongolian
was called upon to demonstrate the
efficiency Of his plan. He accord
ingly took small tail feather from
the hen. passed the quill through
the lower part of the nose, piercing
the thin membrane, and then cut
the feather, leaving it about an'inch
long on each side. The hen returned
to its nest, but gave up in disgust
and commenced laying. Patent
applied for.-Belmont Courier.

PEOPLE who on all occasions ad-
vocate the use of Intoxicating liquor
as medicine, would do well to
gather wisdom from the remark
once made by a thoughtful Quaker
to one who failed to see his own
weakness:
"An elderly gentleman, accustomed to
''indulge" entered the room of certain
inn, where sat grave Friend by the fire.
Lifting pair of green spectacles up on
his forehead, rubbing his inflamed eyes
and calling for hot brandy and water, he
complained to the Friend that his eyes
were getting weaker and weaker, and the
spcctacles did not seem to do him any
good. "Ill tell thee, friend" replied the
Quaker, "what I think; if thee were to
wear the spectacles over thy mouth for
few months, thy eyes would soon get we'll

The Penalty of Vanity.

am told of well-known young
lady here who is confined to her
room and in much danger of losing
her eyesight from the using of hair
dye. She was originally tall,
handsome brunette, but in the past
year has undergone complete met
amorphosis so far as her hair is
concerned, and until lately appeared
as most pronounced blonde. 1t is
as we'll known as any fact can be
that these dyes not only very fre-
quently cause the loss of sight, but
of the mind, and cases are frequent
ly published of women having gone
mad from the use of them. Notwith-
standing this, great number of the
young women of Louisville are to-
day subjecting themselves to these
terrors for no other reason than
that they are dissatisfied with the
hair nature has given them. And
the worst of it is the custom is rap
idly increasing and there is no tell
ing where it will end.-Lcuisvllle

His Poor Brother.

\ boy may be homesick enough
to feel badly, and even to cry, and
yet not quite homesick enough to
lose his self-possession.
Bennie was away from home for
the first time in his life-away from
father, mother, sister and his twin
brother, George. He was sleeping
alone for the first time also, and
his little heart was heavy.
The room was dark, the house
was strange, the mice in the wall
made frightful noises. Bennie's
soul was filled with apprehension,
and after awhile he lifted up his
voice and wept sorely.
"What is the matter Bennie?"
called his aunt from an adjoining
room.
"The matter? Boo-hoo! The mat
ter? was just a-thinking how
George is a-missing of me. Boo
hoo !"-Youth's Companion.

Intoxicated by Water.

Some remarkable cases are re-
ported in the New York Journal, of
intoxication from 'contagion. A
prominent military man who drank
moderately during the war and had
abstained from that time, while at
tending dinner given by his old
comrades, where most of them were
under the influence of liquor, sud-
denly became hilarious, made a
foolish incoherent speech and set
tied back in his chair in a drunken
stupor. The strange part of the
affair was that he had drank only
water, and yet had all the symp-
toms of those who were intoxicated
from liquor. 1t was truly Il case OF
intoxication from contagion. An
other case is mentioned Of man
who had once been an inebriate,
but had reformed and was elected
to office. He gave a dinner to some
friends, and had wine for the guests
but drank only water and coffee
himself. He became merry as the
company and finally stupid, with
all the signs of drunkenness. He
was put to bed, but recovered, and
next morning had only a confused
knowledge of the events of the pre-
vious day. The third case is that
of a man who had not drank liquor
for twelve years, but had once been
a victim to the wine glass. He went
on a military excursion with a
drinking company, and although ne
drank nothing but lemonade, be-
came as much intoxicated as the
others. This event was the subject
of much comment and loss to him,
socially and otherwise, notwith-
standing he protested against the
charges, and others confirmed his
statements that he did not indulge
in a single drop of liquor at this
time.

A SAMPLE PR0TECTI0NIsT.

In commenting upon the expo
sure of John Wanamaker's ''sweat-
shops" in Berlin, the San Francisco
Chronicle says:
Mr.. Wanamaker would be donkey if
he did not buy his cloaks in the cheapest
market.
But why should Mr.. Wanamaker
deny the same privilege to the mass
of his countrymen? Why, except
for selfish reasons, should he raise
campaign fund of $4,000 to aid
in compelling the people of the
United States to buy their necessi-
ties in the dearest market? The
Chronicle says he defends high
tariff in order to enable him to
produce here with decently remu-
nerated labor
Just how decently Mr.. Wanama-
ker remunerates his labor in this
country is shown by the wages paid
in one of the Philadelphia establish
ments which manufactures clothing
for this professional philanthropist.
The force is entirely European
and few of the operatives receive an
average of $3.50 per week. In an
other mandatory a middleman
who had barely made expenses at
sixty cents pair for trowsers, was
notified that no more than forty
cents would be paid in future.
Wanamaker has had the contract
for supplying the uniforms for the
employees on the Pennsylvania
railroad, and he pays only $2.7O for
making an entire suit. The "white
slaves" at Berlin can hardly be less
remunerated than this.
For this sort of protection to
american labor the people Of this
country pay a duty of from fifty
four to sixty-seven per cent on their
clothing !-Walla Walla Statesman.

so damp where the Japs live that
you daresn't leave a book outside
the bookcase over night, cause in
the morning it would all be covered
with moisture and in case of a nice
binding would be liable to be ruined.
If you stood an umbrella in the
corner of the hall over night next
morning you'd be apt to find it COW
cred with fine mold. You have
to keep all your clothes packed in
tin-lined boxes. The missionaries
cover these boxes with cushions
and make lounges of them. Some
times their friends send the mis-
sionaries presents of kid gloves.
They have to put them in glass cases
and screw the tops on tight to keep
them from the atmosphere that's in
the air, else they would mold and
be ruined in a short time. This
idea of canning kid gloves was GER
tainly the beateree. Sez l to my
self "Clemenzy, you will have to
own up that a decent climate along
with other modern conveniences is
considerable of blessing. It's
worth 60 cents day. If you're
going to do the square thing and
give according to your blessings you
darsent leave out the climate.
Conscience is generally pretty
thorough in ell it's undertakings,
and it kept nagging me steadily
about those missionaries. If it was
worth 50 cents not to be Jap, it
was worth twice that much not to be
born a missionary. Ifyou'd been
born Jap you'd very likely be used
to it by this time. But the mission
aries amt. All the time that text
hammered away at me about giving
according as | had been blessed,
and l was just deciding | ought to
give dollar because | wasn't a
missionary when the lady said:
Don't you think, friends, these
missionaries ever get homesick? No
matter how busy they may be they
will never be so busy they cannot
find time to think Of home over
here in Gods country. When the
twilight gathers don't you suppose
they know how it is at home, then
the neighbors dropping in for a
friendly chat and the dear familiar
faces gathered round the evening
lamp?"
Sez I to myself To be a mission
ary, and live among heathens, and
do without butter, and have to can
your kid gloves is bad enough, but
homesickness is good sight worse.
! I'd rather have the lumbago any
day than to be homesick, while
you're taking an invoice of your
blessings, Clemenzy, you can't leave
out your not being homesick. 1t
is certainly worth 65 cents. Even
at that rate it seems like paying for
it with rather small potatoes, but
when you have a conscience of a
mathematical turn you have to go
rather cautious.-Nellie Moore in
American Rural Home.

In response to letters that have
been sent to leading men and wo-
men asking, "Is marriage a sue
cesss?" one christian and philan-
thropic woman, Mrs. L. +. Chaplin,
a time christian philanthropist,
whose home is in the sunny south,
writes in reply:
| am an advocate for marriage.
God made man in His own image,
and unless sin blights and mars the
glorious type, he is only little
lower than the angels, and how pit
iful it is to hear the loving wife,
who amid cruelties and neglect,
when urged to leave a false husband,
say, "He is so good when he is So
ber, and my pledge was "till death
do us part" 'Tis the saloon, more
than anything else that, by destroy
ing our homes, makes marriage a
failure" So we women have sworn
eternal hate to all that can intoxi-
cate. We want our husbands as
God meant that they should be-
brave and honorable, good and true.
We want our homes to be types OF
the heavenly home beyond the
pearly gates. We want marriage
to be sacrament, and not a con-
tract. We want at the bar OF God
to be able to say, "Here are we, and
the childaen Thou didst give US,
and we cannot because the saloon
is in the way. So like the mother
of Coriolanus, we poor women, nav
ing had all entreaties unheeded oy
those who can help US, and Will not
have thrown ourselves before the
chariot of public criticism, deter
mined to die or save our native
land. To me marriage is not 9

OXidized Hair.

Ladies, it would seem, no longer dys their hair. O, dear no! They never think of doing anything so crude as that What they do now, if you please, when they wish to give to their locks that bright golden or bronzy tint which is so fashionable, is to "o2idize it." I am sure the fair sex will thank their faithful friend ''Myra" for teaching them that convenient term. Hair dyc will, of course, never be mentioned more, for all lady who wishes her hair to be safely and imperceptibly frightened and bright ened' to use Myra's own comforting words) Is to oXidize it with the aid of pure peroxide of hydrogen" Even the most punctilious of ladies, who shudders at the notion of dyeing her hair, can hardly object to peroxide of hydrogen ize" it. Why, it sounds as innocent and as proper as taking a chamomile pill or rubbing ones ankles with arnica. don Figaro.

Married a Crazy Woman.

PouGHKEEPsIE, N. Y., April IA short time ago George McCool married Sarah McCauley. The marriage occurred in New Jersey, and now Judge Barnard has issued an order that George w. Corwin and George McCool show cause before the court on April 6 why an injunction should not be issued re- strain:ng Corwin and McCool f ,m molest- ing in any manner or enticing sfrah away, she being an adjudged luLatic. The peti- tioner for the order says that he believes McCool abducted or induced Sarah to leave this state and to marry him, and that peti- tioner believes Sarah should be sent t., some public institution as soon as her condition will allow, and that owing to George Corwin visiting her it is almost impossible for peti- honer to keep her in a respectable family. Sarah McCauley has been before the courts several times. A relative left her nearly s3,OcG, and several young men have been anxious to marry her, George McCool dis tancing the others There is no doubt that she is insane, and it is possible that McCool will be severely punished for contempt of court in marrying her.
