The Grange Lecturer OF Pennsylvania,
Mr.. Gerard G. Brown, recently made a
speech ut Il G~ransers' Conference at
C%hautauqua, and, in violation OF the es-
tablished rules Of the Grange forbidding
political discussion attacked the McKin.
ley bill. He is now sorry he did it, and
SO are the Free Traders who applauded
him. The National Lecturer OF the or.
der, Mr.. Whitehead, ia charged with the
d%octrinatiDg OF the Granger organiza.
ton. In his speech he availed himself
Of the breach Of discipline committed
by Mr.. Brown, and by taking advantage
Of the opportunity afforded him eilectu.
ally used up his Free Trade predecessor
in a speech remarkable for its c~loqucnce
and strength. Hereis an extract from
his remarks:

TScribner's MagaZine.l

John Ericsson, the great engineer, in
confidential letter, written March 90,
1866, said: The great importance Of
what call the subaquatic system Of
naval warfare strongly presented itself
to my mind in 1926; yet have not DUR
ing this long interval communicated my
ideas to single person, excepting EN-
poror Napoleon III. What I knew twelve
years ago, he knows, with regard to the
general result of my labors, but the de-
tails remain a secret with me. The
Monitor of 1856 was the visible part Of
my system, and its grand features were
excluded from its published drawings
and descriptions" Among Ericsson's
papers were found, after his death, a
series of autograph pencil drawings,
showing these concealed features of his
monitor system as originally conceived.
They represent the ideas of subaouatic
attack first presented in the DESTROYER in
1878, after being withheld from the nub.
lie gaze by their author for half a cen.

LUNATICS OF ROYALTY.
Famous Asylum where the Hmm ates

A Terrible Warning.

are Dukes, Princes and Counts
A Terrible warning.
The most famous insane asylum in the
world is at Doebling, about an hour's ride
from Vienna. Many ofsthe persons under
restraint are of royal birch, while there is
hardly one who has not figured in the con-
temporary history of Europe The Duchess
Of Cumberland, Prince Rupert of. Bavaria,
Prince Montenuovo. and Prince Sulkowski.
are among those who have obtained admiss-
ion to this exclusive bedlam. In the most
of these cases the insanity was caused bv
overwork, excitement, indulgence. high
living, and the different forms of dissipation
In few it was hereditary. With the many
1t could surely have been prevented had the
proper remedy been used.
The inability to remember and place some
familiar face. a pain or tightness in tine head.
frequent watering of the eyes, absent
mindedness, desire to sleep but impossibility
to do so. were symptoms that showed the
near approach of insanity or the terrible
paresis. Had these people of royal birth
adopted the right manner of living, and then
used that wonderful discovery. Paine's
Celery Compound. undoubtedly they would
to-day have been enjoying to the fullest ex-
tent the delights of society and highest
official position.
Let the inhabitants of the United States
take this advice to themselves. Their con-
stitutions may have been more vigorous,
their nerves stronger. and their brains
brighter, than these scions of royalty pos
sessed But overwork and high living will
have the same effect. Their digestion will
become weak, and they viii feel tired and
unequal to the duties Of business and society.
A living death in an insane asylum may end
the tragedy. Avert these awful consequences
by using Paine's Celery Compound. 1t is
true invigorant. and can always be relied
upon. Thousands have found its claim to
be true. Why not you?

WIT AND WISDo m,

A Dutchman'S Idea.
81 am afraid" said the business man, "that the
natural gas about Pittsburg is getting exhausted
They've been simply wasting it."
"Vell" said an old Dutchman, "wot you expect
from dem fools? They haven't got no sense
Why don't they keep on making more Of dot
natural gas to replace 1t with, Just like the for
estry laws, where they makes them put down one
new tree for every one they cuts down ?-San
Francisco Chronicle.
