science approves, in behalf of which multi
tudes of the debilitated have and are every
day testifying and which, in countless in
stances, has built up constitutions sapped
by weaknesses and fnfirmity and long un-
benefited by other means, surely COM
mends itself to all who need tonic.

promoitve to the digestion and n fertilizer

lated by this standard family medicine.

A NOBLE SPIRIT.

General Sherman, in an interview
with some General Stewart about
the Texas Home for crippled confed-
crate soldiers, declared that the
National Homes should be open to
Confederates as well as Union Grip
pied soldiers and hoped that the
word Union, would be stricken out
of the law to admit invalids in the
National Home. But Stewart OF
Texas rejected the idea and said the
Confederates must depend on
charity. Chauncy M. Depew is
Treasurer of the Texas Confederate
Home and has given largely to it.
All honor to their noble spirits, say
we. Such men give dignity and
glory to human nature. They are

place attracting all eyes, while their
humane sentiments sOftenal. hearts

His Lost Treasnre.

1t was bobtall car, pretty well filed
A boy with stack of hat boxes under
his wing had Just had dime changed
by the driver He was about to take
his seat when he suddenly became
greatly excited, and dropping on his
knees, began to grovel among the Stats
on the floor of the car, which the railroad
companies would seem to have provided
with the express purpose of entrapping
into their own Golfers the coins that
chance to escape from slippery fingers.
''Poor boy, he has dropped his nickel ~
was the thought that duplicated itself
down the two rows of passengers, and at
once each body was bent forward and
all eyes were fastened on the floor.
''Here, perhaps you can get it up with
this" said cape coated dude, Offering
a glove buttcner.

elderly damsel, as she took a hairpin
from over her ear.
'rd stay in the car till it got back to
the depot and make the company re-
fund, y exclaimed a equity looking party,
whose foot the boy had stepped on in
some of his wild skirmishes.
Take up the whole piece, " advised
man who was sitting at the other end of
the car and whom this proceeding would
not in the least incommode.
This idea was at once acted upon, en-
forcing a general uprising on the part of
no less than eight passengers. The boy
made an eager plunge forward, re
captured wad of chewing gum and
betook himself discreetly to the rear
platform with an air of supreme content.

An article in the Medical Record deals
mainly with the results of the recent ex-
periments in pneumonia of the Italian
physician MaraglianO, who proposes TO
revive the old plan of blood letting when
the heart is on the point of breaking
down.
1t is certain, as the Medical Record SAYS,
''the management Of the affection at the
present day IS far from satisfactory
Pneumonia appears to be an infectious
disease, depending upon the presence of
micro organisms. The first practicable
measure for combating it is TO promote
the elimination of the poisonous matters
from the blood, which occasion the most
fatal symptom of sudden heart failure
on the patient Blood letting, judici=
Ously practiced at the critical time, RS
lieves mechanically the pressure on the
heart. Dr. Maragliano bled twelve cases
of pneumonia of average gravity, alb
stracting from five to ten ounces on the
fourth or fifth day Of the disease, the
venesection being repeated once. He
found that there was an improvement in
the circulation, the pulse diminishing in
frequency and becoming fuller, and the
twelve cases all recovered. This is
strong evidence of the value of bleed
ing.
The Italian physicians plea for the re-
vival of blood letting is that its judici-
Gus employment may save many lives
that otherwise would be sacrificed when

Mrs. Harrison and the Gypsy.

The Misses Evarts, daughters of Sena-
tor Eyarts, tell of a prophecy that has
come to pass regarding the next mistress
of the White House. 1t was several
winters ago, in Washington, when they
and the HarrisOns were living there. A
party of English gypsies wandered into
the capital, and, as the weather was too
cold for tent life, they established them
selves in a suburban stable. The com
pany had gypsy queen, of course, ana
she told fortunes She looked like a
witch, and carefully cultivated what
may be supposed to be the manners of
one. She let her long black hair fall
down her back and bangle around her
swarthy face She wore a dingy. non
descript robe. She spoke in mystic
phrases, although her enunciation was
distinctly cockney. She was a shrewd
creature, and many of her prophecies
were startling because they indicated a
knowledge ofthe person under considera-
tion. The Misses Evarts were with a
bevy of girls who visited the gypsy queen,
with Mrs. Harrison as chaperon. 1t
was all for lark, and the surmise is that
one Of the jocose maidens found oppor-
tunity to give points to the witch. Any
how, she knew things about some of them
and used her information quite weirdly.
When it came Mrs. Harrison's turn the
gypsy took her hand, examined its lines,
gazed into her face, and said:
'In the third generation it shall come
to you"
Being asked what she meant, she talked
vaguely, but reiterated prediction that
something fortunate was going to hap
pen to the lady-something that would
be repetition of events that had &C.
.urred in the family two generations
previous, The Misses Evarts are not
upernaturalists, however, and they sup
rose that somebody, recalling the Presi-
ieEcy Of the first General Harrison,
prompted the fortune teller to make the
,olnt which she did. 1t must stand his
orically. however, as a sort OF prophecy
hat will be fulfilled when Mrs Harrison
gets into the White House as its mis-
ress.- Chicago Herald

An Empress with Simple TASTES.

An Empress with Simple Tastes.
The Empress of Austria, to the evident
disgust of the lively, pleasure hunting
citizens Of Vienna, has an uneonouer
able dislike for court balls and banouets.
and 1t is very seldom that she honors
such fetes with her presence. On the
occasion of the visit of the German Fm-
peror to Vienna, she was obliged how
ever, 10 welcome the imperial guest aud
as she has also disgust for kick .shaws
and French dishes, she ordered. to the
dismay of the chefs de cuisine plain
steak with Saratoga potatoes for her
special use. The matter was reported to
the Court Chamberlain, and after lopp
debate with the State officials. the En-.
press was informed that beefsteak, either
with onions or potatoes. could not pos
sl6iy be served on that occasion. The
Empress quietly acquiesced, and asked
for Jug of milk instead, which request
was readily granted, with the proyiso
that the jug and drinking cup should
be OF gold. The Empress seemingly en-
loyed her simple repast, but a thrill of
horror spread throughout the royal aud
imperial halls when it was perceived
that the august, handsome, brilliant
lady took a pinch of salt from her knife
after each glass Of milk. As the En-
peror of Germany can only use his right
hand in eating, the Emperor of Austria,
through courtesy, followed his example,
and it is believed that, despite the IN
dignaticn of Mrs. Grundy, the court
ladies will in future eat with their
knives in imitation of one of the ex-
centric ways OF their beautiful SOW
ereign.-.SdH Francisco Chronicle.

Where feathers need deodorizing, it is
best to have it done by persons who
make feather-renovating a business ana
have the appliances for doing it in the
best manner, which families have not.
This is done by steaming, and afterward
drying and sitting out the dirt and
broken particles, so that the feathers are
not only deodorized but are livened up
in such manner as to appear almost as
good as new. New feathers need no
treatment except drying sufficiently to
take out the moisture they contain after
being plucked from the geese. Owing
to their extreme ightness they can rarely
be spread out, but should be dried in a
closed room where if possible, the sun
can shine on them through the windows,
or in thin sacks TO prevent them from
flying about when laid on a scaffold out
of doors in the SUM- Feather beds and
pillows should be thoroughly aired and
exposed to the sun quite often, and if
properly cared for will last a long time
without any necessity for sending them
to q renovator.-NeU York. World.

TIE wEAvER,s DREAM.

He sat alons in his dark little room,
His fingers aweary with his work at tbs
loom,
His eyes seeing not the threads, for the tears.
As he carefully counted the months and the
years
he had been a poor weaver.
Not a traveller went on the dusty highway.
But he thought, He has nothing to do bpt
be gay;H
No matter how burdensd or how bent he
might be.
The weaver believed him more happy than
And sighed at his weaving.
He saw not the roses, so sweet and so red
That looked through his window, he thought
to be dead,
And carried away from his dark little room.
Wrapt up in his linen he had in his loom.
Were better than weaving.
Just then white angel came out of the
skies,
And shut up his senses, and sealed up his
eyes,
And bore him away from his work at the
loom
In a vision, and left him alone by the tomb
OF his dear little daughter.
My darlings' he cries, ''what blessing was
mine!
How 1 sinned, having you, against goodness
divinel
Awake! o my lost one, my sweet one, awaksi
And Inever, as long as l live, for your sake,
VIII sigh at my weaving!7
The sunset was gliding his low little room
When the weaver awoke from his dream at
the loom,
Ard close at his knee saw dear littla hsad
Alght with long curls-she was living, rot
dead
His pride and his treasure
He winds the fine thread on the shuttle
anew,
AT the thought Of his blessing twas easy to
d.
And sings as he weaves, for the Joy in his
breast,
Peace cometh Of striving, and labor is rest;
Grown wise was the weaver.
