CURED.AND CHARGED.
Ladies Relieved of Headache
from the inaugural Ball.

Ladies Relieved of Headache
From the inaugural Ball.
Several Minneapolis ladies Who had
ate nded Gov. Merriam's ball Wednes-
day evening met Thursday afternoon
for one of those quiet conversations
which are the only thing that makes
life seem worth the living, especially
when the night previous has been spent
in dancing and feasting. On this par
ticuiar att ernoon every one Of the party
had headache. All of us know that
that is one of the penalties of dissipa-
ton. But these practical women Won
dered if they couldn't find remedy.
So lady physician living in the next
fiat was summoned. and it was laugha-
bic to see how quickly she dispersed that
little company. Looking about the
room on enteri e. she began: Head
ache? That's bad. Been out all night;
must pay the penalty. Now, headache
is of two sorts. Either it is outside or
inside the skull. Headaches that are
located in the nerves between the
skin and the skull can be relieved read
lily. Those that are within the brain
tissue require rest and careful treat
ment."
Her auditors almost forgot their aches
in their aStonishmentat this physicians
air of erulition. If man had given
them. the same professional advice it
would h We been received with profound
reverence, but for woman to distin-
guish between the different sorts of
headaches-perish the thought.
The lady physician, unlike Howells'
heroine, was not lacking in confidence.
She fingered each fair temple and
pulse. adapting the treatment to her
patients needs. The first had a neu-
ralgia or surface ache, and was given a
choice between menthOl, hot flannel
and aconite pellets. She took menthol.
and by tea time had forgotten all about
the headache. Another was found to be
suffering slight congestion of the brain,
brought on by too much dancing. She
was peremDtorily ordered to her couch
and supplied with a prescription of
some sort. She hopes that it won't
happen again. So that physician went
through the number, finding only two
serious cases, and giving little lecture
to each one as she went along. The
next day each lady received bill for
81, aSSAe price of medical attendance
on tMprevious afternoon. They all
think That the most unkind cut of all.
No lady minds any number of dollars of
expense previous to ball, but to pay
81 to be delivered from the resulting
headache seems an imposition. The
fees were all paid and aching heads
cured, but 1t is safe to say that ianguid
beauties won't amuse themselves after
the next ball by trying prescriptions
from a practitioner of their own sex.

Society in Minneapolis has been very
demure and quiet for the past week,
leading one to wonder if Lent had not
come little early this year. Perhaps
the real reason was that the governor s
inaugural ball at st. Paul was an event
of sufficient magnitude to cause the
society people of the Twin Cities to Sus-
pend all the smaller affairs of life in
order to attend that one great event. 1t
is whispered that Minneapolis society
people have been so tired since last
Wednesday evening that they haven't
enough energy to project any social
affairs of their own. However, the light
fall of snow on Friday evening was
sufficient for sleighing. The avenues
and boulevards are crowded with hand
some cutters drawn by spirited horses.
while the silvery bells fill the air with
their music. If only what snow we have
doesn't melt, sleighing parties and to-
boggan clubs viii flourish during the
coming weeks.
The Michigan associations entertain
ment was one OF the pleasant events OF
the past week. as was also the Tam o.
Scots are noted for their social talents,
and wit is not wanting where they are.
But few of the members of the Scottish
club know anything of the Gaelic dia-
lect. and those who do are proud of the
accomplishment. A Scott who spoke
Gaelic fiuently recently used his knOWl-
ledge to advance himself in the eStima-
ton of his pastor. Donald brought his
baby to be baptized. The ministers
asked if Donald was church mem II.
OF could say his prayers. Not in In
glish.' answered Donald, ''but think
/ could say the Lord's prayer in Gaelic"
The minister invited him to repeat it,
so Donald glibly recited one of Alex
ander McDonald's poems in the Gaelic
tongue. The minister was delighted.
and advised Donald to cling to his ma
tive tongue. Then the baptism pro-
ceeded. Now that minister proudly
tells of the piety and fidelity of parish
Toner whom he had previously feared
was not Christian.
Cupid has been kept busy reaping his
usual harvest during the past week.
The Olson-Hawley wedding being one
of the most notable of the season. AS
one of the clerks in Mr.. OlSOn'S store
remarked: 1T seems just like chap
ter out Of society novel, to think that
the proprietor should fall in love with
one of his clerks, and that she should
reciprocate that affection and such a
pretty wedding should follow. Why,
it's Just too charming, you know"
Nearly all the weddings chronicIed this
week have been very quiet affairs. In
looking over multitude of presents re-
Gently received by neWly-wedded
couple it seemed that silver in various
forms pred0mnated There were set
of antique silver buttons. heavily orna-
mented silver photo frames, containing
the photographs of the bride and bride
groom, a dainty mouchoir case and long
scent bottles with silver or cut glass
shoppers. These were only few of the
dainty trifes which were scattered
about, and in nearly every case the
workmanship was so intricate that the
little articles were of considerable
value.
During the coming week there are a
number Of balls and dances to be given
by various clubs, so that society will

A Picture Peddler Sells an "Old
Master" to a Nicollet Avenue
Lady.
Peddlers of cheap pictures have be-
come so common that tn ere is not as
much profit in the business as formerly.
One day last week a Hebrew member
of an itinerant profession finding him
self sadly in need of shekels, devised a
new and successful plan of adding to his
stock of ready cash. He was so thank
full to Abraham for the luck attending
his scheme that he gave banquet to
the peddler fraternity.
There is wealthy woman living not
ten blocks from Nicollet avenue. Not
content with wealth. she aSpireS to be
an art critic. This ambition has been
industriously fostered by people who
like to be counted among the upper ten.
Some pictures. purchased at the dicta-
ton of her own taste in the East, have
been much praised. She, of course, had
no doubt of her ability to judge differ
emit. styles of painting and when
a sleek-looking Hebrew, called at her
house the. other day, the lady
readily listened to some .judicious flat
terry and did not think it strange that he
possession of genuine 'sOId Master"
which he was willing TO sell for few
hundred dollars. He had history
ready, but the lady didn't listen very
attentively because she was afraid OF
displaying her ignorance on the subject
of ancient paintings. The bargain was
quickly closed and the painting deliv-
cred. The lady invited a select coterie
of friends to view the ''Old Master"
AS in duty bound, the company openly
admired and secretly envied her the
new possession. Among the guests
happened to be genuine art connois-
seur. He threw a GOODNESS OH the meet
ing by saying: MADAM that picture is
only copy of the genuine and not an
extra good one. The dark and faded
tints are procured by covering the can
vass with a solution of gum and bistre."
The lady was 10th to believe that sne
had been. cheated. But an additional
proof of fraud was found in the modern
trademark on the back of the canvas.
That picture now adornS the servants,
room and the lady hasn't held ali art
reception since.

WANTED-Women who wish to earn
w from S13 to SIS week at home, to send
for catalogue and samples to Boston. Decoff
rative Art company.
The above advertisement appeared in
several of the Twin City papers just
before the holidays. 1T seemed like a
special dispensation of Providence TO
those women whose duties kept them
at home and who hardly knew what
pocket money meant. They were anN-
ious to earn few dollars with which to
buy Christmas presents for the children
and for their relatives. A letter asking
particulars, brought reply from the art
company, stating that squares OF silk
would be sent with patterns really
stamped; accompanied by book of in
structions telling the amateur how to
paint the patterns in appropriate colors;
assuring her ''tbat child could become
an expert at the work i'll ten days" The
circular concluded by saying that de-
post of 81 in advance was necessary to
pay for the material.
Quite number of ladies sent the re-
quired sum and have not received any
answer from the decorative art COM
pany: so that it looks as it the adyer
tisement were profitable scheme-for
the decorative company. The ladies
who sent the money are anxious that
the fraud should be exposed and quite
indignant about the manner in which
they have been swindled. OF course it's
too bad. and saying You might have
known BETTER" is scant consolation.
But few moments thought might have
satisfied these ladies that there are
plenty of poor people. in the vicinity of
Boston. who would be glad of chance
to do such work. Wages are also M uch
lower in the East than here. So that
there would hardly be any inducement
to pay express on packages from all
parts of the country. Nor would the
prices, at which decorated work is sold,
justify wages of s. day, as promised
in the circular. The ouly result is that
some ladies have stock of experience
which they did not possess before the
holidays. and it is likely that the deco
rative company has reaped a harvest
which will enable it to live in ease I'M
til the next holiday season furnishes
another abundant lot of victims.

The Publishing and Patent Offices
Of the Scientific American.

Perhaps some of our readers have visit
ed the extensive offices of the Scientific
American, at 9t& Broadway, New York,
but many have not, and to such the fol-
lowing account may be of interest A
correspondent who recently had this
pleasure informs us that he was greatly
surprised at the magnitude of the estab.
lishment. 1t suggested to his mind an
enormous insurance company or banking
house. At the main Office, which is prn-
cipally devoted to the patent business
forming as it does so important a part of
the establishment-may be seen the men,
bers of the firm and their able corps of
examiners. Ready access to the principals
is afforded TO every one and here may be
seen inventors from all pal is of the couu-
try showing their models and drawings,
and explaining their inventions. The
models left by inventors form a large and
interesting collection, and are kept in a
room by themselves. The large corps of
drawings are for the most part expe-
rienced mechanics, electricians, or engi-
neers, some of them having been connect
ed with the u. S. Patent Office. Most of
the correspondence is carried on by type
writers, and this necesSitates a separate
department, where a number of expe-
rienced female type writer's and stenog-
raphers are constantly employed. The
dark room, where the photographs of the
patent drawings are copied, and where the
photographs for the, architectural depart
ment are developed, is also on this floor.
On the floor above may be found the edi-
torial rooms; compositors' and subscrip-
ton room, and the engravers' department.
The Architectural Department occupies
the top floor, and here may be seen the
manager of this department, and also a
number of.draughtsmen at work prepar-
ing the plans and general designs for the
Architect and Builder edition of the Scien-
| tific American, which is published month
ly, and has attained widespread circula-
tion. The printing of the papers is car
ried on in a separate building. At the
entrance of the main office, which alone
occupies floor space of 80 by les feet,
may be seen one of Prof Draper's re-
markable recording barometers, with
which instrument a complete record is
kept of the atmospheric changes. This
barometer was built specially for the
Scientific American, and it Is a remarka-
bly, fine and sensitive as well as a very
expensive instrument.
Some idea may be had of the extent OF
the business done at the office of the
Scientific American when we state that
over one hundred persons are employed
by Mum q Co. on their several publica-
tons and iu their extensive patent de-
/ partments.
