People Buy More Flowers.

zone of the most encouraging things
/ see," said the confirmed optimist,
lis that the dwellers in great cities are
coming to regard flowers as a necessity
and not merely a luxury. Until year
or two ago few flowers were grown in
winter, and many of these withered in
windows, as the florist was obliged to
charge great sums for them. Now
everybody buys flowers, and even those
who deny themselves the delight OF
purchasing have the pleasure Of seeing
them offered in the streets"
1T always hurt me so in those old
days" said gentle voice in the optim
lists audience to think, when bought
a bunch of roses, that was paying for
at least one other bunch which had
faded unsold Now that so many
flowers are bought, very few proper
tionally are wasted. This is almost as
comforting to ones feelings as it is to
ones purse. "-P. A. Resseur in Kate

what Happens ~ foU Take Arsenic
When n single dose OF arsenic in suf.
ncient quantity TO be felt has been
taken. coIicky pains, bowel disorder
and perhaps nausea result In the
course Of an hour after a poisonous
dose has been taken an intense burn
ing pain Is felt in the osophagus and
stomach. This spreads to the entire
anterior portion of the lower part OF tho
trunk. A sense of construction at the
throat and an acrid, metallic taste ac-
company the pain. Then vomiting
and relaxation of the bowels begin. As
the case progresses the symptoms in
crease In intensity. Then comes a
thirst that water will not allay, although
It apparently increases the stomach dis
turbance. The victim groans and
writhes.
Now he implores the doctor to save
him. Then he begs to be killed and
put out of pain. The extremities be
come icy. The pulse is small, feeble
and frequent, and the breathing is
labored, embarrassed and painful be-
cause of abdominal tenderness. The
surface of the body becomes dark and
of that blush color that medical men
call cyanosed. Violent cramps add
their torture, exhaustion becomes col
lapse, convulsions or coma ensue, and
death ends the agony. This torture
lasts sometimes from five to twenty
hours.
In some cases these symptoms occur,
but in modified form, and the doctor
will apparently get the better of the
disease. The remission will be but for
day or two. Then the abdomen will
swell and icy GOODNESS will pervade the
frame Shivering will become pro
nounced trembling. Then cramps, con
vulsions and death. Kansas City Star.

pnrtie4ity of Tired shopper while Try
Ing to Dodge Her Reelection.
Many iokes-good. bad and indiffer
have been poked at the Indies for
tbelr devotion to shopping. Some one
once said that a woman has been known
~ forget her own name while engaged
IN the fascinating pastiine, and the
statement has found many believers
alwavs. Of course, among the sterner
eex. Whether all the ladies are equally
oblivlous to everything is by no means
ces..s.s. Int happening In large
down town store may be taken as hay
ing some bearing on the subject.
The store, which is one of the finest
in the city, has n large mirror com
pletely covering the rear wall, serving
the double purpose of ornamentation
and profession by enabling the floor
walkers to watch the ever moving
crowds. The lady had been examining
and pricing fabrics until her brain was
Ia whirI, moving from one counter to
another, and all the while gradually
approaching the rear of the store. AT
the last counter, after seeing everything
that was to be seen, she heaved sigh
of regret and bethought herself of
leaving.
And Just here the fun occurred. Her
mind was busy with the problem of
whether shrimp pink or pea green
would be match for her complexion
providing she could purchase either,
and she was not aware of her proximity
to the rear. Rather, she had an idea
that she was near the front, and that
the large and magnificent mirror was
the door. She approached it, and
thinking she saw some one coming
toward her stepped to one side. Her
reflection, of course, did the same. She
stepped back. Ditto the reflection.
Then she got angry
Excuse me-, she said in the clear,
cutting tones peculiar to her sex when
they wish to be sarcastic, ''are you so
fond of dancing that you must indulge
in it here2 If you let me pass I'll be
obliged"
No answer.
well" said the now thoroughly |
aroused woman, "I'm going out, SO
you'd better stand aside"
Suiting the action to the word, she
took one-two--three steps, and landed
up against the mirror. A little scream,
a blushing woman hurriedly going in
the right direction this time, general
litter from the cuss8alers and clerks,
and the comedy was over. Pittsburg

An Estimate Of EngIand's Future King

An Estimate of England's Future King.
To American eyes, especially those
through which I'look, Albert Edward
occupies a very unique position. His
strength is felt everywhere, and in re-
lation to everything When he be-
comes king he will have no more power
than now, except the ability to sign pa.
pers and appoint a few friends to office.
If he has been merely leader in so
cial life, he has managed to impress
himself so we'll upon his people that
there is not man nor woman in Eng
land who would not be glad to sec
him the ruler. That is saying much
for one who has been surrounded with
great temptations from childhood, and
who had no political power to endow
him with heavy responsibilities.
His very position forced him for the
moment to take upon himself the light
er obligations of life and meet his peo-
pie on the field instead of viewing
them from the throne He could only
weigh himself and be weighed outside
of official life. Yet he rose above that
position, step by step, until he made
his influence felt all over the kingdom
by means of the knowledge he gained
by personal contact with the world in
almost every walk of life. II this does
not evidence strong man, then what

IT gives us great pleasure to note the improvements lately made in the Albu- querque Democrat. The whole con- cern has evidently undergone good overhauling, all the associated news is published, and the local happenings are not neglected. The typographical appearance has been greatly improved and it is considerably ahead of the field in which it is published, and we hope that it may meet with the success its enterprise merits.

DISPATCHES received from Pekin say

DISPATCHES received from Pekin say that it is officially announced there that the recent report of disturbances in the Mongolia was grossly exagger- ated. The movement, the dispatches add, is purely a local one, and is en- tirely devoid of danger to the Imperial government. Notwithstanding the re- ceipt of these dispatches, it is believed here that the revolutionary movement is of much greater importance than the Chinese government would have the outside world believe.

AMERICAN corn promises to assume an important place in the manufacture of soap in Germany. Hitherto manu- lecturers used linseed oil procured in Russia, but owing to the failure of the crop there they were compelled to look in other directions for a supply of oil. East Indian linSeed oil was tried, but the experiment was unsuccessful. An eminent chemist, after many eXperi- ments, has decided that the oil obtain ed from corn is best suited for the uses of manufacturers. The latter are now obtaining their supplies from Chicago, and the chances are that the trade will equal thirty or forty million bushels yearly. D. C. Berl, agent of the United States Treasury, is of the opinion that the industry, once started. will assume immense proportions. Minister Phelps in a speech at a Thanksgiving banquet, appeared to anticipate a reduction in the corn tariff. He said: The Amer ican pig has entered Bradenburg Gate, but is still hungry. By Christmas, however, it will have all it wants cheap and enough
