A Leap for His wife.

rushed to the platform, and although
the train was moving at tho rate OF
about twenty miles an hour, he delib-

struck the uneven ties, like double-

came to q standstill he crawled up on
his launches like q discontented worm,

Peouilarities OF Their Looks.
0resss Manners and Customs.
In youth the women Of Egypt gen.
orally have lovely iprms-plump. sup
pie and elegant An excess of flesh is
rare among them. Graceful curves,
an upright carriage and finely-molded
hands and feet are common character
istics. Their faces, too. are usually
pleasing and often beautiful, with the
richly tinted softness Of the south.
So sweet is the expression Of these
faces, 80 bewitching are the glances of
their dark eyes, that an experienced
traveller declares they are the most
perfect women in the world.
The eyes nearly all are large, black
and alm0nd-shaped; their soft express
sion, still further heightened by long
lashes and the universal use OF "Kohl'
with which they blncken the edges of
their lids. The have oval faces, some
times q little broad and clear olive
compilations. The lips are usually
quite full; the nose Is straight, though
a little wide. Glossy black hair, with
eyebrows that form a lovely arch,
complete the features of these sirens,
famed since Cleopatra for their be-
quilting beauty.
They dress the hair In an elaborate
fashion. It is cut short over the fore
head. but on either side of the face
hangs q full lock, often curled or
braided. The rest Of the hair is ar
ranged 10 enormous braids, usually
from eleven to twenty-five, but always
an odd number. Three black silk
cords, bearing little ornaments OF gold,
are generally fastened to each braid,
hanging down the back in . glittering
shower. The head-dress is a complex
arrangement It consists Of q kind OF
turban, round which is commonly
bound gay 'kerchief or Q long strip
Of muslin folded into q narrow band.
The latter Is usually black or rose
colored. The central part is orna-
mented for several inches with spangles 9
that fall over the forehead, while the
ends are decked with gay edging and
tassels OF colored silks, above which a
few more spangles are sewed. On the
crown OF the head-dress Il worn
a round. convex ornament called
the '.kurs." 1t is about Eve inches
in diameter, and as costly as the
weaver can afford. Wealthy ladies,
and even the wise of some small trades

Beauties Of the Great west.

The beauties Of the ..Great West" {"
of which poets have sung and raved, is
an interesting theme when described
by the painter from the artistic point
OF view. j. E. Stuart, q member Of
this profession, whose studio is in New
York, and who spends every summer
sket tching scenery in the west, was at
the Grand Pacific few days ago.
Every spring finds him headed for the
Rocky mountains. It is this year
rather earlier than usual that he is
vending his way toward those heights,
stopping over at various points to visit
friends and procure supplies for his
summer campaign. Last season he
spent in Oregon, Washington Territory
and British Columbia: To say that he
was snraptured with the marvellous
beauties to be seen there would be Civ.
ing his feelings the mildest forms OF
expression. He says the atmophere is
simply ravishing. a4d to one Of artistic
sensibilities it gives a hue to every
scene of rock or earth or foliage that
painter would give years OF life to be
able to copy. From the Dalles to Port
land, on the Columbia river, the scenery
is one grand panorama The precipi-
tous walls Of basalt rock, from 1000 to
5000 feet in height and of grayish
color. form most beautiful background

phere, present q greenish blue tint

can be seen at a distance OF sixty miles,
and is called the grandest snow peak in
America. Various points on the Ca
madam Pacific afford rare beauties for
artists, and the mountain scenery from
Yale to Banff is most gorgeous. On
the summit of the Cascade range of
mountains is found one of the wonders
of the world in the Mount Crater Lake.
The surface of the lake is $500 feet
above the sea level and is 800 feet in
diameter. The crater is almost per-
feet circle. having precipitous wall of
from 1900 to 5000 feet in height,
which Is broken into myriads Of fam
tastic pinnacles. Near the center of
the lake is an island, much resembling
q mountain. This is but q crater
within a crater, and contains nothing
but snow. One Of the features OF this
range is the sunset, which is 80 beau
tiful that skilled artists have been un-
able to catch the glorious tints. There
is nothing in the wild world like the
Yellowstone canon. The colors are
exceedingly varied and rangs from
delicate cream to a deep orange, and
there are also blues, greens and grays,
with yellow always predominating,
the color from which the name Is de-
rived. The great falls in the canon
are one of the attractive features Of
this most attractive place. At one
point they make leap Of $50 feet.
The combination OF colors and the
sheen on the water produce some
charming effects. Chicago Herald.

hid the band. "It's for my brother
Jim, who was planted about five
months ago"

"You might call it an accident, but
it wasn't. It was a case OF misread-
ing human nature"
The mBn tenderly brushed some dust
off the Grape, put on his hat, and, after
getting good and ready, started out
with:
"Me and Jim had a ranch on the
Republican river in Kansas. I didn't
amount to much. but Jim was dandy.
He could size up man as quick as
you could halve an apple. Didn't
know what fear was, and the Injuns
was as afraid OF him as death. I've
put a Observation-Disclosures monument
at his grave. and you can judge by that
he must have been pretty good man"
..Well!"
"Well, late last fall when we had a
stock sale at the ranch sort OF tramp

run over him and they had some words.
The tramp wanted to fight and the
boys put Jim up to skeer the liver out
of him. I'm free to say didn't like the
feller's looks. There was sumthin'

he didn't He was right thar, and

as handy with the knife as any

4 As our readers will remember, q
letter was published In our columns q
lew weeks ago, signed "Subscriber"
which dwelt at some length upon q
subject OF general interest. and
which contained several inquiries
which will be found answered in the
following:
To TIE Editor:-Several days ago I
noticed a communication In your paper
from Subscriber" in which consider
able comment was indulged in con-
serning the pamphlets which are
widely distributed by Messrs. II. H.
Warner & Co., of Rochester, N. Y.
These pamphlets, as is we'll known, are
published In order that the public may
become conversant with the symptoms
and growth Of disease peculiar to the
kidneys, and which is, 1t must be ad-
mitted, the productive cause, In a ma
iority Of instances, Of other organic
disorders. The publishers Of these
pamphlets are also the discoverers and
manufacturers OF tho noted Warmers
Safe Cure, which is known to be the
only means for the prevention and cure
Of kidney disease, as can be testified
to In every community. In the pamph-
let's referred to there appear q number
of testimonial from parties who speak
In the highest terms of how they have
in many instances been restored 70
health by Warmers Safe Cure. after
having been given up by the doctors
to die, and attached to those state
ments are the fac-simile signatures OF
the parties themselves.
i am personally aware that all the
testimonials published by this firm are
genuine and are the voluntary state
ments OF persons who are anxious to
manifest their gratitude for the unex-
pected return Of health and vigor
which Warmers Safe Cure has brought
them. To make assurance doubly
sure. it can be added that Messrs. II.
u. Warner & Co., have for years pub
iished standing offer OF q, 900 to
anyone who will prove to an impartial
referee that any testimonial pub
iished by them is not, so far as they
know, bona fide and absolutely true.
What more does "Subscriber" desire
10 convince him. In addition to his own
statement, that his neighbors all tell
him that Warmers Safe Cure has done
more good for them than they have re-
ceived from the doctors.
In view, Mr.. Editor, OF the many
persons who are sacrificed daily TO the
bigotry and ignorance OF physicians
who persist in treating patients for
symptoms. called consumption, apo
plexy. brain troubles, and nervous
disorders. when the real cause IL dis
ease Of the kidneystwhich should be
detected and quickly eradicated by tho
use OF Warner Safe Curc-I maintain
that the value Of those pamphlets,
which place in the hands Of the public
the means Of knowing the truth, can
not DO overestimatcd. Familiar.
