There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years Doc
tors pronounced it local disease, and
prescribed local remedies, and by con.
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it mcurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. j. Cheney & Co.. Toledo. Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the
market. IL is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.

A Husbands Kindness Toward
His Wife and Her
ParamOur.

Springfield Ladder.
"Two weeks ago young married
woman named Georgia Larrantee and
young single man going by the
name of DEWITT Messick arrived in
Springfield and stopped in the northern
part of the city. They came origin
ally from Memphis, but had been stop
ping some time in Thayer, Mo-, before
coming here. The woman was mar
rled, and hal forsaken her husband
and cast her lot with Dewitt, who ap-
pears to be penuiless fellow. A few
days ago Marshal Dryden received
letter from Mrs. Larrantree's hus-
band, of Memphis, notifying him of
the elopement and requesting him to
be on the lookout for the couple. He
arrived from Memphis Yesterday
morning himself. He made com.
plant against the two under the city
ordinances, and they were arraigned
before Judge Mathie on the charge eff
fornicatioD, the arrest having been
made by Marshal Dryden and Officer
Wright. They were fined S. and
cests each. total amount of $3.50,
and had no mony to liquidate with.
The woman, who is said to be quite
handsome, had before refused to
accompany her husband back to Mem
phis, saying she would prefer to die.
Thinking to soften her heart, while
she was weeping in perplexity with
the fine hanging over her and her par
amount, the husband paid the fines of
both, partly in cash and put up
watches to secure the balance. The
three walked away together, the hus-
band pleading apparently in vain for
his faithless wife to return to him. !
They proceeded to the Gulf depot to |
talk over the matter and subsequent
ly to north Springfield.
Officer Beal is of the opinion that
Mrs. Larrantree would have gone
back with her husband if he had not
had her arrested and fined.
The outcome of Larrantree's do
nestle affection is difficult to see at
this writing"
If he was a Pettis county man, the
first he would do to clear away the
clouds on his domestic horizon would
be to prepare Mr.. Messick for the
grave and a glorious calm with a big
rainbow would soon put in an appear

OF her ye virgins learn obedience
When SO We come into there holy places
Bring her up to the high altar that she |

The sacred ceremonies there partake.
The which do endless matrimony make,
And let the roaring organ loudly play
The praises of the Lord in lively notes
The while with mellow threats, the choir
listers the joyous anthems sing
That all the woods may answer and their
echo ring.
Behold while she before the altar stands
with beauteous: grace, and virtues
store,
Hearing the holy priest that to her speaks,
And blesseth her with his two ahppy
hands"

Death of Mrs, CIaypaOl.

The following from the Nickerson
Industry will be read with interest
here.
Mrs. Amelia c. Ciaypool, wife oil
the editor of the Industry, entered
into rest at z o'clock Sunday even.
ing, June 9th. Her illness began
May 9Th, FIVE weeks before she died.
The physician called the disease
malarial fever. On Tuesday before
her death she was pronounced well,
except weakness. But she complained
of increasing pain, and on Thursday
two doctors were called when they
discovered that complications rem
dered her condition very critical.
From this time little hope of her re.
covery was justified. Sunday she
sank rapidly all day, the prime cause
being hemorrhage of the womb, I'M
til she passed quietly away.
Mrs. Claypool was just in the bloom
of joyous young womanhood, her age
being ~ years, 9 months, and %
days. She and her husband were
married at her home in Sedalia, Mo-,
on the 10th of May, 1888. During
most of the year she suffered from ma.
laria, and it was thought best to
change climate. On March End, she
arrived with her husband in Nicker-
son, where she improved for two
months, when her last illness began.
She was one of the mobiles of her
kind. For pure man or woman to
know her was to admire and esteem
her. Enemies she had not one. Her
language never varied from the pure
and chaste, and her conduct was per-
feet. She loved society, in the higher
sense, but her home, though humble,
was to her the sweetest place on earth,
and her husband the best company
she could have. She has made the
duties of a wife and proprieties of
home careful study, and she loved
her model. Her chief interest was
her husbands welfare, and to him she
was the embodiment of devotion. He
never found her peevish or ill humor-
ed, but always flood of mellow sun.
light that made home like paradise.
She was deeply religious and a
member of the Methodist church. On
her death-bed she repeatedly testified
her love for the Savior, and hope of
salvation. In her room she kept upon
the wall written quotation, the first
two parts of which were as follows:
begin the day with clear view of
Jesus Christ"
"Let prayer be more than petition. |
Let it be passing into the very Court
Of the King to claim Him for your
help and care"
Among her scraps was found a writ
ten quotation saying "some books are
silver, others are gold, but / have one
better than they all, the Bible"
Her loss casts gloom over her hus- I
bands life that takes away all JOY, and
her memory shall be cherished with /
deepest affection and hottest regard
until the time when God shall call
MIN, also. !

ward, while the men hardly knew what
versatlon did not scintillate, as it'were,
with wit or repartee. The repaSt
was nervously gone through two
bottles of claret and two OF
champagne being disposed of. When
the waiter brought in the coffee he was
accompanied by an assistant, who bore
on tray before him what appeared to
be a bird pie, the crust brown and
tempting, and the silver plate OH which
it rested garnished about with green.
When this was placed before the bride
she looked at her husband in surprise,
but apparently did not dare suggest that
this was a rather substantial dish to
bring on at such late moment. All the
faces of the men were twitching with
excitement, with the exception of the
husbands, which expressed blank
amaZement at what seemed a serious
breach of correct form. The waiter
handed a knife and fork to the bride.
Twill madam cut the pie just here"
he asked, indicating the outer rim Of
the top crust.
The bride took the knife tremblingly
in her hand, and, with the aid of the
waiter, succeeded in lifting the entire
top crust away from the lower part of
the pie. Then she gave little cry of
establishment, for a white dove lifted
up its head from the interior of the pie
and cooed. Around the doves neck
was very beautiful little diamond
bracelet. 1t was gift from the men
who were present.

Linen for the bed quite as we'll as the
bed in which we sleep can have its
share of beauty, for true beauty has its
root in appropriateness.
The sheets and pillow slips of we'll
ordered linen closet should be guiltless
of machine stitching. Their hens
should be daintily sewed by hand. The
machine has its uses, but within this
precinct it is oStracized. The hens of
the sheets should be at least three inches
wide, and in one corner there should
be seen the monogram of the chante-
laine daintily worked with white linen
floss. No bit of color should mar the
inviting usefulness of the pure white
linen. There is, in the words of the
old adage, a place for every thing, and
the bed linen is not the place for color.
The pillow-slips may be treated in a
manner similar to the sheets. and the
bed will be not only pleasant to look
upon, but also will give an added sense
of usefulness to the many occupants.
The towels that fit the corner of our
linen-closets are susceptible of decora-

as the time and patience of the worker
admit.
Fringed towels are much in use, but

and above it were family indicated.
There was a sculptured Christ above it,
and one Of the WOman'S hands, the arm
thrown forward, as if her last gesture
had been one of appeal, graSped and
partly dragged aside the heavy drapery
of the altar. The other arm was thrown
across her eyes, as though to shut out
the sight of death, which the earthly
body dreaded, though the heroic soul
was strong to bear. The idea was
great one; the American was genius
in his way. He threw the charcoal
aside after a while, and, mixing some
dull monochrome tints upon his pal
cite, commenced in earnest.
Two hours had passed away. He
painted boldly, and had already made
wonderful progress. She made no an
swer to his suggestion that she should
rest. ELY was always a patient model:
The light began to fade. He painted
on. Nothing could have been more per-
feet than her pose. The rigid, awful
helplessness of the limbs, the droop of
the long throat, the backward sweep of
the rich chestnut hair! The woman
was genius in her way. And he went
on painting.
1.-THE night was getting worse. The
fire had sunk to mass of red, creeping
embers. TWAS growing cold. She was
chilly or exhausted. A waXen pallor, a
grayish hue like the hue of death was
on her: the veins upon the slightly
sunken temples showed like dark pencil
markings against the ashy skin. Violet
shadows seemed to deepen about the
mouth.

lifted my hand in the act of tapping on
the glass through which l had been

thought so, too, and hearing her one
day bewail the fact that for the want of
clothes she could not accept an invita-
ton to spend the season in London,
offered to furnish her with handsome
wardrobe on speculation, providing
that she would pay certain interest on
the money after she had married her
earl or duke, as the case might be.
The girl jumped at the offer, for her
looking-glasS had always told her that
she only needed the proper setting to
make her jewel which duke might
be glad to place amid the strawberry
leaves, and she firmly believed that
London season with beautiful clothes
was the one thing needed to set her be-
fore the world in her proper light and
enable her to popularize the fortune she
bore in her face.
Well, she got the clothes, and charm
ing ones they were, for the dressmak-
er's artistic pride was aroused and she
wanted the world to see what she could
do with good subject. The London
World raved over her. She sat for
famous artists. Her photographs were
in all the shop windows. Her picture
was in all the illustrated papers, and all
the poor guardSmen and impecuniouS
Younger sons lost their heads sufficiently
to propose love in cottage.
But when the dukes and earls found
she had no fortune, and that the fine
clothes did not represent government
bonds or pork-packing establishment,
they came to the conclusion she was too
expensive luxury, and at the end of
the season the beauty returned I'M
welded and with no means of paying
that dreadful dressmaker'S bill, which
seemed mere bagatelle to her when
she had sailed away to become all En-
glish peeress.
That was two years ago. She is still
unwedded; that dressmaker'S bill is
still unpaid, and the talk is now that
she is about to accept wealthy gentle
man, with a curved nose and an Oriental
surname, who will not mind trifieS
of few thousands for clothes when it
means the securing of SO beautiful
woman, whose connections will give
give him an entree into the fashionable
society where he so longs for an oppor-
tunity to spend the income of his mill
ions.
Some of these speculations, however,
have turned out much more fortunate
ly, and, strange to say, one of them was
in the case of very plain girl who had
nothing but her witty tongue and styl-
iSh carriage to recommend her, and
who, with a setting of good clothes,
managed to marry an excellent partl.
Within one season she had not only paid
her bill, but has purchased dozens of
splendid new frocks. for which she was
enabled to pay down her husbands
ready money.

v " markable energy and
intelligence. At t h.
Time OF her marriage she was acknowl-
edged to be the most graceful and
beautiful woman in the island. She
made such an impression upon Lord
Pembroke that he sketched her portrait
at length ia the character of Coe in his
work entitled South Sea Bubbles"
Inc lady married an EngliShman, but
did not renounce her nationality, and
after the death Of her husband, in 1872,
lived with an uncle, E. HI. Coe, in San
Francisco for a time, and then Joined
her fathers family in Apia. She kept
nJS hanlyc nnntQd q anthnrifu
on the native dialects, and during the
term of Mr.. Griffin as consul at Samoa,
translated all of his correspondence
with the local government. She inter-
ested herself generally in South Sea
trade, and is to-day better posted with
regard to it than any other citizen of
the United States south of the equator.
In 1879 she removed to New Britain,
bought large tracts of land of the ma
tiyes, formed partnership with
Thomas Farrell, and under the firm
name Of Thomas Farrell q Co., estab-
liSEed one of the greatest business en-
terpriseS in the South Sea islands. The
greater part of the landed estate is
owned by Mrs. Forsythe, and much of
the rest, purchased in the name of the
firm, is mOrtgaged to her. All their
property within the Imperial German
protectorate amounts to 10000 acres.
Outside of it they own 10000 acres.
Late in 1884 Mrs. Forsythe bought the
schooner Eudora at San Francisco, and
employed it constantly among the trad
ing stations. Early in 1885 she bought
the steamer Golden Gate at Sydney.
That vessel is now the only one carry
ing the American flag and trading in
that part of the Pacific.
The business of Mrs. Forsythe has in
creased so rapidly that she intends
shortly to dispatch an agent to San
Francisco to construct several vessels
there. In the preliminary steps which
secured to the United States for ten
years the use of the harbor of Pago Pago
for coaling station, this remarkable
lady rendered efficient aid to Consul
Griffin, and hort time ago offered the
American government twenty acres of
her own land on the island of Malulu
for another coaling station. Mr.. For
sythe employs fifty Europeans and sew
eral hundred natives.
