Poor Hunlnnityi

The common lot is one of sorry say
at least-the pessimists, they who look
at the worst side. Certainly what would
otherwise be bright existence, is often
Swallowed by some aiIment that over
hangs it like pail, obscuring perpetu-
ally the radiance that else would light
the path. Such an aiIment, and very
common one, is nervousness, or in other
words. weakness of the nervous system,
a condition only irremediable where in
efficient OF improper means are taken
to relieve it. The concurrent experience
of nervous people who have persistently
used Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is, that
it conquers entirely supersensitiveness
of the nerves, as well as diseases-so
called-which are invited and sustained
by their chronic weakness. As the
nerves gain stan ina from the great tonic
the trouble disappears. Use the Bitters
for malaria, rheumatism, bilionsness
and kidney troubles.

man yesterday, pointing to ragged,
besotted man stumbling along the
street, unmindful of the rain.
He was train dispatcher on the

Sunday he had only two trains ON his

bound and fast stock train running

that as soon as he made the meeting

and he impatiently awaited the time.
When the trains were close enough to-

train to meet and pass the stock train

that 1T could have until 1:25 to make
Willow Valley for the passenger. See

hence gave the stock train thirty five
minutes more time than he should.
Bill saw his mistake ten minutes after
he had made it, but there being no tel
cgraph- station between the points
where the trains were given the orders
or at the meeting point, he could do
nothing to rectify it. He sent for the
superintendent and ordered out the
wrecking crew, then sat at the key as
pale as death, the cold perspiration
running down his face in streams,
awaiting news of the collision.

Kate Fl.Id swIn.lI..,l.

Several years ago Miss Kate Field,
the authorcss, visited Atchison, says
The St. Joseph Herald. While there
she made the acquaintance of promi-
nent business man, who believing that
she had some ready money. portrayed
to her the profit she would reach by
buying lot in that city. He induced
her To purchase, the price being 81, 600
She paid 81 600 down and the balance
was To come in payments. II turned
out aftcrward that the lot really be-
longed To the man who induced her To
buy, although lie had represented diff
ferently Tho editor OF The Herald
met Miss Field in San Diego nearly
two years ago. when she related the
story of her Atchison purchase. de-
scribcd the location of the property,
and said she had received II letter from
friend not To meet the second pay
ment, as the property was not then and
never had been worth more than
81 COO, the amount she had already
paid. We were requested to investi-
gate the matter for her and did so.
We had two of the best reliable men in
Atchison value the property. Que
placed the value less than 81 900; the
other Thought it might be worth 81 POO.
We advised Miss Field To lose the 81 600
she had paid down rather than pay
the s., 600 yet due. This is the true
story of Miss Fields real estate deal in
Atchison. The deal was clear
swindle for which the city of Atchison
was in no way responsible, but perpc-
tr:lted by u man of prominence who
claimed respeclability.

Any one who knew Cheyenne when
it was the terminus of the Union Pa
cific railroad will admit that il was q
hard town. There was more cutting
and shooting in n given time than any
other western town could ever boast
of, and no doubt most of the blood let
ting was a good thing for the commu-
nifty.
In the palmy days of the town Ihad
business there. and next to me was
a jew clothier. He came ON fresh
from New York, knowing nothing of
western ways, and he hadn't got his
goods in before he was half scared to
death. But for the fact that the bows
would have bursted in his shanty, he
would have kept the door locked half
the time. The toughs soon caught on
TO the fact that he was a coward. and
one after another went in and bull
dozed him and had great fun at his ex-
pense. privately advised him to get
a gun and wing some of them, but he
raised his hands in holy terror and ex-

TItle. In rrasia.

The influence of the English ladies
who went into trade as niiIliners and
dressmakers few years ago has shown
itself IN some unexpected ways. Tho
newspapers, especially those devoted
10 fashion and the society papers
treating the advent of the titled ladies
as a matter of news, published so much
about them and their shops that the
regular advertisers indignantly de-
manded that similar notices should be
given to them; and, in consequence.
even the best papers now show col
umstlled with articles in which there
Is scarcely scrap of real news. and
which the sensible reader soon discoy-
ers are nothing more than the frame in
which some advertisers name is dis
covered.
As many of the shopkeepers sell
similar goods, repetitions are ineyita-
BILE; and as it is impossible to make n
series of puffs really good reading
the writing has fallen into hands far
less able than these formerly employ
ed, and the papers have greatly deteri-
grated. 1t is the old story. VARYING
only in detail, that the influence Of
the reduced LADY, is invariably bad
IN any and every occupation. As for
the noble milliners and drcssmakers
more than one of them is now going
through the second stage of the Helen
darkness story, and finds, too late.

A whlstIIne Tree.

The musical or whistling tree is
found in the West Indian Islands. in
Nubia and the Soudan. 1t has "a pc
GUITAR shaped leaf, and pods with a
split or open edge. The wind passing
through these gives out the sound
which gives the tree its peculiar name.
In Barbadocss there is valley filled
with these trees, and when the trade
winds blow across the island "a con.
slant moaning, deep toned whistle is
heard from ii. which, in the still hours
of the night, has very weird and mn
pleasant effect
a species of acacia, which grows
very ;;bundantly in the Soudan, is
also called the "wliistling tree" by the
natives. Its shoots arc frequently, by
the agency of the larvm of insects,
distorted in shape and swollen into a
globular bladder. from one TO two
inches III diameter After the insect
has emerged from n circular hole in
the side of this swelling, the opening,
played upon by the wind, becomes a
musical instrument, equal in sound TO
a sweet toned flute. st. Louis RcpuL-

Ouid..s Revenge.

A few years since Ouida met the
Marquis de Stufa, an Italian noblcmau
of ancient family, who possessed many
fascinating qualities, and the fair
damsel of forty-two summers fell in
love with him. The marquis admired
her talents, enjoyed her society and
was frequent visitor at her villa near
Florence. Ouida was prepared To be-
come the Marchesa de Stufa. but she
was never asked. She made her lover
ridiculous IN a book. Those who have
read Friendship" will probably re-
member that the hero is weak, tickle
sort of character, who does not know
his own mind for week at time.
but who is full of vanity and possessed
of high idea of his own Importance.
This hero was intended for the Mar
