1t is announced that Mrs. Frank
Leslie will soon we'd the Marquis dc
Leuyille. Speaking of this report
the Macon Telegraph says: "Mrs.
Frank Leslie after rescuing her de-
ceased husbands estate from bank
ruptcy, paying off an enormous debt
which he bequeated to her and max
ing fortune by her own intellect
and energy, deserves a better fate
than to become the wife of broken
down foreign Count who has been
the hero of several scandals. 1t is a
pity to see this bright and amiable
American woman throw herself away

Universal suffrage, which has just
been adopted in Spain, would have
been deemed reckless and perilous
experiment in that country a few
years ago. However, tho broadening
of tho basis of the franchise is COM

now and Spanish politicians probably
sac the necessity of keeping their
country up with the procession.

A new use has been discovered for
electric light globes. The spring
birds have found that they make ex-
cellent places in which to build their
nests, sheltered as is the inner space
from the winds and storms, and many
a lively and lovely courtship may be
seen, almost any day, by CHANGING at
the top Of the tall poles. The new
corners perch upon the edges of the
globes and peep and twitter to one
another, as they make their connubial
arrangements. Then they may be
seen bringing their twigs and bits of
straw and twine preparatory to be-
ginning housekeeping. A day or
two later and the domicile Is all ready
for occupancy. One may see the
nests from below through the glass.
The dear little fellows seem very
happy and contented, although they
live in the full glare of light by day

Poor Humanity!

The common lot is one of sorrow say at least-the pessimists, they who look at the worst side. Certainly what would otherwise be a bright existence, is often shadowed by some ailment that over hangs it like pail, obscuring perpetually the radiance that else would light the path. Such an ailment, and very common one, is nervousness, or in other words, weakness of the nervous system, a c ndition only irremediable where in efficient or improper means are taken 70 relieve it. The concurrent experience of nervous people who have persistent'y used Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is, that It conquers entirely supersensitiveness of the nerves, as well as discases-so called which are invited and sustained by their chronic weakness. As the nerves gam stamina from the great tonic the
 trouble disappears Use the Bitters for malaria, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney troubles.

Tea Gathering in Ce11op

Tea is getting to be a great product ot Ceylon and the export is already 10, 0OO,~ 900 pounds. It is claimed in behalf e this tea that it is cleaner than Chinese or Japanese tea, which is manipulated and adulterated until its quality is consider ably deteriorated In Ceylon coolief pick the tea leaves, which are spread ol. trays to wither under cover for about a day. The withered leaf is then placed in a rolling machine, driven by power, and rolled for an hour, and during the process the leaves become a moist and twisted mass, out of which the expressed juice freely rolls. The leaves are then placed in trays to ferment or oxydize, during which process they change from a green to a copper color. The subsequent flavor and strength of the tea depend, to g great extent, on the fermentation, whicl is a chemical process, the success of which is due to the weather.
 Firing is the next process. The tea le thinly spread on trays and placed eithe, on charcoal stoves or in large iron drying machines, and at the end of half an hour it is thoroughly crisp and dried and has become tea The tea is then sized by being passed through sieves of different mesh, giving the varieties of Broken Pekoe, Pekoe, Souchong, Congou and Dust. The first mentioned, which con- sists chiefly of the opening bud of the leaf, gives the strongest tea; so strong that the other teas are mixed with 1t. The tea is again slightly fired to drive of any suspicion of moisture, and packed while warm in lead lined boxes.
 Ceylon tea may now be bought in the American market. It is extolled for its strength and flavor, and it is said that two pounds of it will go farther than three pounds of Chinese or Japanese tea. It is said to have fragrance that is pc culiarly its own.-Good Housekeeping.

Give Felons Their Labor.

The idea is simply preposterous that the people sent to the penitentiary should live in idleness. They should have tho benefit of their labor, and if you give them the benefit of their labor they will turn out as good work as though they were out of the penitentiary. They will have the same reason to do their best. Consequently, poor articles, poorly con- structed things, would not come into competition with good articles made by free people outside of the walls.
 Now many mechanics are complaining because work done in the penitentiaries is brought into competition with their work. But the only reason that convict work is cheaper is because the poor wretch who does it is robbed. The only reason that the work is poor is because the man who does it has no interest n its being good If he Lad the profit of his own labor he would do the best that was in him, and the consequence would be that the wares manufactured in the prisons would be as good as those manu- factured elsewhere. For instance, we will say here are three or four men work ing together. They are all free men. One commits a crime and he is sent tC the penitentiary. Is it possible that his companions would object to his being paid for honest work in the penitentiaryi --Col. Bob Ingersoll in New York World Interview.

Perhaps the readers of the EPITAPH would like to know in what respect ChamberIain's Cough Remedy is better than any other. We will tell you. When this Remedy is taken as directed, as soon as a cold has been contracted, and before it has become settled in the system, it will counteraCt the effect of the cold and greatly lessen its severity if not effectually cure the cold in two days time, and it IS the only remedy that will do this. It acts in perfect harmony with nature and aids nature in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions, hque- fylng the mucus and causing its expul- sion from the air cells of the lungs and restoring the system to strong and healthy condition. No other remedy n the market possesses these remarkable properties. No other will cure a cold as quickly or leave the system in as sound condition. 90 cent and one dollar bottles for sale by H. ].

Something About Garters.

Doctors may crOak llll 'h0y "d0 black in the face about impeded circu- lation and cold feet, but the craze for the silk elastic bejeweled garter is on the increase. The dear girls will have them. The yellow garter is the cor rect thing, besides possessing mystic attraction all its own.
 "Fve got it," announced pretty girl to her dearest friend.
 "Got what? La grippe?"
 "No. no. Sallie's yellow garter. You know it married three girls. Jen- nie was the last, and she promised 1t to me. I got it about three weeks ago and it was little too large. Instead of tightening it, as I should, l only pushed it up to the top of my stock ing. and wore it everywhere l went with Jim, hoping it would bring him to time. Alack! the other afternoon on Fifth avenue down it fell, like Nc Ginty. I bade Jim turn his back while I picked it up, and now the charm is fled, because if it drops down over the shoes you are lost and there's no hope for you"
 1 saw a girl in a big store carrying conspicuously a bow of bright orange ribbon. She approached the notion counter and held the bow out to the clerk, who produced some silk elastic the exact shade of it. Mademoiselle took the elastic ribbon, turned aside, stopped and whisked up her frock. There was a momentary glimpse of lace frills and plump calf, and then she stood rather flushed as to the cheeks holding out a strip of elastic.
 "That will do," she said.
 "Doubled, of course?" asked the shopgirl, as she prepared to measure it.
 "No," said the customer; "I only want it for one garter. I'll have the other black"
 I had Fanny Davenport's new gar ters in my hand the other day. They were one of her Christmas presents from Melbourne Mcdowell, and of a delicate lavender color, with large, square clasps of frosted gold, decorated with clover leaves. Inside is the in- scription, Gypsy from Will, Mizpah, December 9, 1SS9"
 'T've always worn yellow" said La Tosca, as she lifted her embroidered petticOat and displayed the yellow lig- ature, "but have changed the color for luck"
 I regret to add that Tosca wears her garters below the knee.
 One of the pretty tricks which the girls are up to is to have one garter clasp disabled, then it comes down, don't you know, on all opportune oc- casions, and if Ned or Bob be man of spunk he picks it up, puts it in his pocket and replaces it with a hand- some pair soon after, while the silken trophy hangs on his dressing table along with SylYia's slipper, from which he drank champagne, and bit of lace torn from petticoat by projecting nail at a certain stage door-Clara Belle.
