The great revivalist is expected to
renew his efforts to save the multi
tudinous sinners OF st Paul and Yicin-

~ The leading reyivalist ofthe day is
of good stock. He was born in
Gainesville, Barlow County Georgia,
in 1849. His father was a soldier
in the war, and afterwards practiced
law. Several Of his uncles and his
grandfather share, or did share, with
him the preachers vocation, with
preferences for the Methodist de-
nomination.

1t hardly seems possible that the money
paid one month for a ~ten-cent article, could,
it pennies were used in payment, weigh one
hundred tons. Yet one of our bright school
boys has figured that this is true ofDiamond
Dyes. To judge from the stocks OF our deal.
ers in dye stuffs, Diamond Dyes own the field
Of package dyes, and are II complete success.
Of course they have imitators. Nothing il
success until initiated" But no one wants to
risk q counterfeit when the genuine can be OBJ
tanned at the same price. Three new colors
have lately been added to the list of Diamond
Dyes. Fast Stocking Black, Turkey Red
for Cotton, and Brown for Cotton.
The manufacturers, Wells, Richardson
& Co., Burlington, Vt, will send colored sam
pies OF these new dyes, with book of direc-
tons, to any address, free of charge. These
additions seem to AVE made the line so com
plete that any shade can be- matched with
some color of Diamond Dyes. The beautiful
sample book Of shaded colors, lately sent to
all dealers in dyes, will delight the eye of any
lady. cts easy to dye with Diamond Dyes"
is so absolutely true that home dyeing is no
longer a difficult and disagreeable task. AL.
manacs, with their hints as to proper times
for different work, tell ns that now is the
time for Spring dyeing. This, together with
the thought of that hundred tons of money,
leads us to ask what school boy can figure
how many thousands of ladies are now say
ing hat this is the time to use Diamond
Dyes.

Stories of Lecturers.

Long ago Anna Dickinson, while in
her prime came to Chicago on q lec-
turing tour. The announcement of
her address crowded the hall where
she was billed to speak. An auditor
says she began by asking: "Why
was [ born?" Then, after q pause,
she repeated: "Why was I born?"
whereupon some fellow in the gallery
shouted: swell, Anna, if that's q
conundrum, 1 give it up" The en-
barrasment to the late Congressman
Dorsheimer of an interruption on a
similar occasion is fresh in the recol-
lection ofmany. Atsome commemor-
alive celebration that excellent speak
or was invited to deliver an address at
Faneuil hall. The building was packed
to hear the orator ofthe evening. Be-
hind and near him sat Pat O'Flaher-
ty, a noted democratic ward-worker.
Like an anatomical curiosity, he
was thoroughly soaked in alcohol.
Gov. DOrsheimer started in with:
"Faneuil hall is full tonight" "And
SO is Pat O'Flaherty," was echoed
from the rear. This elected shouts
of laughter, which the speaker mis-
took for approval, as the i%nterjected
remark had escaped him. Again, in
stentorian and oraclar tones. he be-
gan: "Faneuil hall is full tonight"
"But divil-a-bit the advantage OF
Pat O'Flaherty has it" was re-echoed
followed by peals of outlaws, which
thoroughly disconnected the Titanic

Will not attack any of the prob
