The Columbia Cycle Calendar,

By far the most valuable business
calendar for 1891. and entirely unique
in design, is the Columbia cycle calen-
dar and stand. issued by Pope Mfg. Co.,
of Boston. Mass. The calendar is in
the form of pad containing 500 leaves,
each 81 by 2 inches, each leaf contain
ing blank for memoranda, and as the
leaves are only fastened at the upper
end, any leaf can be exposed, no stub
being left when the leaves are torn off
The pad rasts upon stand, containing
pen rack and pencil holder, and made
Of stained wood, mounted with raised
letters in brass, thus forming an orna-
mental paper weight. The day of the
week and day of tho year, together with
the number of days to come, are given,
and each slip bears a short paragraph
pertaining to cycling and kindred sub
jrcis. These paragraphs have been
carefully collated from leading publica-
tons and prominent writer's, the larger
number having been specially written
for this purpose. Although this is the
sixth issue of the calendar. all the mat
ter is fresh and new, comprising notable
events in cycling, opinions of physi-
clans and elergymen, hints about road
making, and numerous other topics.

Quite a scare was given to the peo-
pie of this burg last Saturday, when
news were sent flying over the town
that James Gribble's house was in
flames. Quite few neighbors went to
the scene of the FIRE, but luckily it had
been noticed in time and was put out
with little damage, This was largely
due to Edward Williams and Welsh
Tom Williams. who, by their prompt
action undoubtedly saved the house
from being burned
A very serious accident happened at

HE PRAYED AFTERwARD.

Seattle Press Deacon B, one OF
the oldest and most respected church
members in Seattle. has young grand
son who is generally accounted the
werst scapegrace in the whole congre-
CATION. The boy who is ten years of
age, has recently attended prayer meet
ing a number of times, and has appar-
emily taken a great deal of interest
therein.
Last week he attended the prayer
meetings. The boy arose to his feet.
Everybody looked at him IN surprise.
He wore very sorrowful countenance,
and many thought that he was truly re-
pentant of his wrong-doings. Every
one listened while he opened his lips to
speak.
II would like" said the youngster.
solemnly. Ito ask the prayers of those
assembled for my poor old grand
father !"
The boy sat down and there was a
constrained silence for moment. after
which some one suggested song, and
the meeting closed in the usual form.
Ii is needless to add that that young
ster's jacket received a much. needed
tanning before he retired to rest that
night.

Mrs. Gladstone's Kindness

A pretty American girl recently call
ed upon Mrs. Gladstone at her London
home. She carried most favorable
letter of introduction as member Of
we'll known American family. Her
brightness and sparkle attracted the wife
Of the great English Statesman, and for
an entire afternoon and evening she
lived in the Gladstone household. She
confessed to Mrs. Gladstone that her
visit had purpose-that of writing an
article on the home-life of her hostess for
an American magazine.
"But. my dear" said Mrs. Gladstone,
.'your people reinterested in Mr.. Glad
stone; they do not know me-"
THAT Is just why l came" replied
the girl lin order that Americans may
learn little more of YOU"
At the tea-table, Mr.. Gladstone Joined
with his wife in entertaining the Am ERR
can girl. and few were ever given a bet
ter opportunity of seing the Gladstone
homelife.
The quiet part which Mrs. Gladstone
has played iu the career of her famous
husband is known to only few. While
thousands of articles have been written
of Mr.. Gladstone, none of an authori-
tative character have been printed of his
wife. Even her portrait is seldom seen
in the English shops; rarely in the prints.
She has always felt that public interest
in her own country and across the sea
was centered in her husband, and in or
der that his greatness might sand out
more strikingly, she has each year fur
Their retired from public view. A fresh
ness will, therefore, attach itself 10 the
story "A Day with Gladstone, as it will
be told by her bright young visitor in
The Ladies Home Journal, of Philadel-
phia, during the coming year. This ar
ticle will be one of the series of "Un-
known Wives of Well-known Men, +"
which this excellent magazine will con-
tain during 1891.

soldier as he rested bis war-worn
frame in chair at the Monongahela
