two volcanoes, Is the point where future ex-

fact ~ be noted that the two ships commanded
BY Ross were the Erebus and the Terror, the
same afterward commanded by DIR. John
Franklin in his Inflated voyage toward the
north pole, and that he CFranklin) was at this
time governor Of New South Wales.
These three expeditions were begun and fin

years ago. Since then nothing has been done
worth mentioning to extend their discoveries

Scattered all over the broad prairies
of the Northwest and hundreds of self
reliant, true blue heroines, living In
small, isolated cabins called shacks,
proving up claims, entering home
steads and making money.
1t is lonesome, dreary business, this
living alone on q wild, unsettled prai-
rie, without q face or human form to
welcome one or cheer ones solitude,
but there seem to be good many
young women who have the grit to
hang to this solitary life long enough
to prove up claim at least.
Four young ladies in Dakota last
year put their heads together and hit
upon an ingenious plan, whereby they
could each secure claim and yet all
live comfortably together In one house
and each be upon her own land. In
stead OF building four shacks with one
room each, they constructed one shack
with four rooms, but 80 nicely planned
that each room Of the square building
was on different quarter section.
Each had her own bed in her own
room and in that way, each claimant
at night slept upon her own land.
Society ladies Of the city will won-
der, not so much how these young lady
settlers get along without social priv
ileges, as how they dared 1.-Two so far

Doctors are not half SO much OF a
household necessity as city people are
in the habit Of thinking.
For all the ordinary ills OF life, the
old-fashioned roots and herbs remedies
are more effective, and much safer in
results than modern doctors pills and
potions. These latter are SO radical
in their effects that, while they may
better meet the modern desire for
quick results, they frequently perman-
emily injure the system, nature rebel
ling against the unnatural methods en-
ployed.
1t is always safest to follow natural
methods in treating disease. The old
time roots and herbs remedies, which
our good old log-cabin grandmothers
knew so we'll how to prepare, were the
best medicines the world ever knew,
because they were natures remedies.
The modern world needs them. In
Warmers Log Cabin Remedies, and
especially such as Warmers Log Cabin

ELOPED WITH THE COOK.
IL was . Cape May BeiIe-The Couple
Come to Washington.

A Cape May special TO the Baltimore A-neri-
ON says: The best society in this exclusive
resort was astonished to learn Yesterday even
ing that May Sommers. the nineteen-year-o
daughter OF one of the leading summer resi-
dents, had eloped with her fathers French
cook. The utmost efforts to keep the affair a
secret are now being made, and no report of
the elopement has ye, appeared in any of the
local papers. 1t appears that when Mr.. Som
mers came down in the latter part OF May he
brought handsome French cook, named
Coquillent. with him. and installed
him in the position of chef. COquillent
was young and ambitious. In the leisure
OF the kitchen he was won't to regale
the other servants with tales Of his noble
origin, and il soon became apparent that the
daughter of his employer had singled him out
for her especial favor. Her visits to the
kitchen became very frequent, and even pro-
longed beyond any household necessity. Cos
sip became so loud in consequence that Mr.
Sommers thought seriously Of dlscharglng his
chef, deciding in the negative only because OF
the handsome young Frenchman's ell in his
art. On Monday morning Coquilient asked for
Q days leave of absence in order to do some
shopping in New York. An hour or two after
ward Miss Sommers told her mother that she
believed she would go for short drive on the
beach. That was the last seen of either. 1t
has since been learned that they both boarded
an outgoing train for Camden. where they were
married by justice. They travelled in sepa-
rate cars and spoke no words until they landed
at their destination. After the marriage they
are now believed to be hiding. Mrs. Coquillent
is a tall and vivacious brunette. and has been a
great belle here for the last two years. She is
bold swimmer and sailor.
