Nervous women seldom receive
the sympathy they deserve. While
often the pictures of health, they are
constantly ailing. TO withhold
sympathy from these unforunates is
the height of cruelty. They have a
weak heart, causing shortness of
breath, huttering, pain in side, weak
and hungry spells, and finally swelling
OF ankles, oppression, choking,
smothering and dropsy. Dir. Miles
New Heart Cure is just the thing for
them. For their nervousness, head
ache, weakness, etc, his Restorative
Nervine is unequaled. Fine treatise
on "Heart and Nervous Diseases"

HER DISAPPOINTMENT.

A Lady who was a great admirer OF
Horace Greeley went one evening to
hear him lecture. She had never
seen her hero, but was a constant
reader of his paper, and had her own
ideas as to how he would look and
act.
The chairman of the meeting de-
sired to air his Latin. and introduced
the speaker in the following rather
vague and indefinite manner:
Ladies and gentlemen, you came
very near being disappointed this
evening, as MIR. Greeley has been
very i'll, and | trust that slight
change of programme will be excused
on this account.
GAS | know that you are all anxious
for the lecture to begin, will only
detain you to say that | have the
pleasure and honor of introducing to
you the facile princeps of Journalism"
The lady waited to hear no more,
but went home in disgust.
"Well, my DEAR" asked the hus-
band, who was taking care of the
baby during his wife's absence, chow
did you like the lecture?'
81 didn't stop to hear it," was
the reply. Greeley was sick, and
they got another man to take his
place who was such queer looking
old guy that | wouldn't waste my
time listening to him, 50 | came
| back"
! ''Who was the man."
81 don't know" she answered,
still indignant at her disappointment.
"Somebody | never heard of be-
| fore. His name was Facily Princes. .
The lady was still more disappointed
the next day when she discovered IN
the paper long account of Greeley's
lecture, which the great editor, al
though feeling quite i'll, had delivered
in forcible and impressive manner.
The paper remarked that the chair
man stated the truth when he called
Greeley easily the first of journalists.
1t then dawned upon the lady that
her "Facily Princes" was really the
editor of The Tribun Youth S
Companion.

RUSSIAN WOLVES.

| have seen wolves show more
boldness in the pursuit of dogs
their favorite food, according to my
experience-than on any other oc-
casion. Settlers and retrievers are
frequently snapped up within one
hundred yards of a sportsman, and
in broad daylight, when shooting in
thick forest; and wolves will prowl
around the villages at night, and
come right into small towns after
bowling puppies. The peasants
seldom show fear of them, and an
old woman knew ran out at once,
in The lightest of garments, on a
bitterly cold night, only armed with
piece of tin and stick with which
she struck it. shouting loudly to drive
off three marauders who howled I'M
der her window whittier they had
come in hopes of finding her dogs
outside. Some watch dogs, however,
know their enemies and defend
themselves most bravely, and l saw a
big mongrel Newfoundland who
shows honorable scars gained in
sanguinary fights with wolves. One
fine morning | met a young wolf
trotting down the high road in such
peaceful. inohensive manner that |
took him for a large dog, and SO lost
my chance for a shot by not getting
behind covert in time.

sting that she was his child, took
charge OF the property. Not for a
year afterward did Ingle have an idea
that the girl was his daughter. He
was led to believe that she was born
nearly a year after the second mar
1iage instead Of ) months. When
Sarah's younger sister died, however,
the age that was put upon the coffin
plates showed that Sarah, being just
Il year older, was four months older

gone to the jury to day, but, hearing
me evidence, Judge Bennett took the
case into his own hands and ruled for
the plaintiff. He held Ingle to be the

LONDON, Dec 18.-The rupture of
diplomatic relations between France
and Bulgaria on the pretext of the ex
pulsion Of the French jurnalist Chad
ouine now proves to be the initial step
of a French diplomatic scheme to ask
the sultan to use his suzerain right to
interfere in Bulgaria III Russian in
terest Advices were received at the
foreign Office tonight that NJ Cam
bon, the French ambassador at Con
stantinople, has demanded and viii
obtain formal conference on the sub
ject with the sultan tomorrow. This
development Is no surprise to Lord
Salisbury and his diplomatic allies in
Vienna and Berlin. NJ Cambon in an
interview with the foreign minister Of
the porte on Wednesday last, was
understood to intimate that, as France
had never recognized Prince Ferdin-
and, the government Of France must
look for redress to the suzerain before
taking directly active measures. As
NJ. Ribot must know or expect that
the porte Will decline to interfere in a
question concerning the internal add
ministrarion of Bulgaria, anxiety
pivots on what the French govern
ment Will do. The Austrian govern
ment, probably acting in concert with
Lord Salisbury and Chancellor Won
Capriyi, supports the Bulgarian bu-
reau. Austrla's agent at Sofia has in
cited Premier Stambuloff to address a
note to the governments Of Turkey.
Germany, Austria and England vindi-
eating the expulsion of Chadouinc.
1t IS known all around that VI. Ribot
does not care a staw for the expulsion
or the expulsee. The st. Petersburg
weekly, The Vedomoski, after suggest
ing that it is possible that France,
failing to obtain satisfaction: may
blockade Bulgarian ports, says that
Russia would protest against the APP
pearance Of French ironclads before
Narna or Bourgas. If VI. Ribot's
policy results thus the peace of
Europe is over.
