the heavy piece of ivory carved into an
excellent counterpart of her own head
and face. No one looking at the bit of
ivory work for an instant could mistake
the likeness between the owner and
the head on the handle. Her friends
predicted that the beauty of the handle
would only add to the inducement to
steal-for the head and face were ex-
ceedingly beautiful, and the Shrewd
young woman knew perfectly we'll that
they were when she ordered it. But
the strange part of it was that it didn't,
For six years the owner has carried that
umbrella, through rain or shine, having
new cover put on when necessary,
and only once has she missed it. That
time she left it standing in a shop, and
before she had made the rounds of the
place polite floor walker had returned

as that and not have it cost me half as
much either" said her best friend when
she saw the new umbrella. Il can be
ingenious. too, and I'm not proud" So
just inside the edge of her new UNI
brella she cut round hole as big as
half-dollar. 1t didn't hurt the useful
ness of the article the least bit in the
world, but it did impair the desirability
of it sufficiently TO keep the other mem
bers of the family from carrying it off
or from the mistakes OF the casual per-

cited much curiosity, but the young
woman found it so effective that she
carried the umbrella until little of it
was left but the hole

Mrs. Anna @. Fall was admitted to
the Boston bar Jan. 20. Forty can
didates took the examination at the
same time, among whom she was the
only woman. Twenty eight of them
passed. Mrs. Fall is the wife of law

band are both graduates of Boston
University, class Of '83. After her mar
riage, Mrs. Fall began to attend court
with her husband, in order to assist
him by taking notes during his cases.
She watched the proceedings closely,
and often gave him useful hints in the
cross examination. of witnesses, etc.
Up to this time Mrs. Fall had never
thought of studying law but she found
the work so interesting and develop
ed such an aptitude for it that Mr..
Fall urged her to read for the bar. She
will practice with her husband at his
Office at Pemberton Square, Boston.
They will not be in partnership at first,

w. G. T. u. COLUMN,
Morro; ''God and Home and Native Land
THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC A CRIME.

| 1t is monster cruelty. 1t is con-
the grave. 1t is traffic in tears and
groans and blood, in vice and crime
and misery. The rumseller is rarely
moved by widows tears, though they
swell the river of agony With his
heart encased in stone, he plies his
infamous trade and boards his unhal-
lowed wealth, regardless alike of the
claims of God and the cries of his muir
dered victims. For heartless cruelty
and desolating results, the highway
robber is not to be compared with the
vender of alcoholic beverages. The
former simply says, ''Your money or
your life!" The latter, with more ex-
acting demands, says to his unresist
ing victim, "Your money and your
life!"
1t is domineering ohgarchy. The
half-million men engaged in making
and selling liquor seem determined to
rule the other sixty millions with
worse than a rod of iron. They are
insolent and defiant to the last de-
gree. Already they sit supreme in
our national congress, and they walk
our legislative halls with swing of
conscious triumph. With a face of
triple-plated brass they demand all
classes to bow in base servility at their
feet. Alas, that they succeed so well
in bribing lawmakers, bulldozing Of
ficers, muzzling ministers, handicap
ping editors, and controlling the bust
ness men of our great but imperiled
nation!
1t is deadly foe to the church.
Nothing like the saloon power to-day
paralyzes the pulpit, blockades the
pew, hardens human hearts, alienates
men from the sanctuary, forestalls re-
vivals of religion, and rises like a
mountain in the path of Christian civ
ilization. 1t is terrible fact sad
enough to make angels weep that
the two hundred thousand grogshops
of this nation are doing more to damn
the people than all the churches are
doing to save them.
Judges, lawyers, chaplains and pris-
on wardens unite in testifying that
the dram shop is the fruitful cause
of at least three quarters of the pau
perism, Righteousness, rascality, and
crime that spread their dark wings
over our land

When Artemus Ward lay dying in
Southampton he was tended by his de-
voted friend, ''Tomo Robertson. Just
before Wards death, Robertson pour
ed out some medicine in a glass and
offered it to his friend. Ward said:
''My dear Tom, can't take that
dreadful stuff
"Come, COME" said Robertson,ur
ing him to swallow the nauseous drug,
"there's dear fellow. Do, now, for
my sake; you know I would do any
thing for you
''Would yor?" said Ward, feebly
stretching out his hand to grasp his
friends, perhaps for the last time.
II would, indeed" said Robertson.
''Then you take it," said Ward.
The humorist passed away but a few
hours afterwards.

Bevond the Craze.

ssShe is dead!" they said to him. Come away
Kiss her and leave her-thy love is clay"
They smoothed her tresses of dark brown hair
On her forehead of stone they laid it fair.
over her eyes that gazed too much
They drew the lids with gentle touch.
With a tender touch they closed up well
The sweet, pale lips that had secrets to tell,
And over her bosom they crossed her hands.
ssCome away" they said; God understands.
And there was silence and nothing there
But silence and scents of eglantere
And Jasmine. and roses and rosemary,
And they said ..As lady should lie lies She"
And they held the ir breath as they left tn room
With shu oder because of its stiffness and
gloom,
But he who loved her too well to dread
The sweet. the stately, the beautiful dead
He lit his lamp and took the key
And turned it-alone again-he and she.
He and She; Still she did not move
To any one passionate whisper OF love.
He and she: yet she would not smile
Though he called her the name she loved erst-
while.
He and she: but she would not speak
Though he kissed in the old place the quiet
cheek.
Then he said, ''Cold lips and breasts without
breath
Is there no voice, no language OF death?
"Dumb to the ear and still to the sense,
But to the heart and to soul,distinct, intense?
s.see now, will listen with soul, not ear,
What was the secret of dying, dear?
s.was it the infinite wonder of all
That you ever could let life's flower fall.
"Or was it 4 greater marvel to feel
The perfect calm DER the agony steal?
..Was the miracle greater to find how deep
Beyond all dreams sank downward that sleep?
Did life roll backwards its records, dear,
And how,as they say it does, past things clear?
"And was it the innermost heart of the bliss
To find out so what a wisdom love is?
20 perfect dead, 0 dead most dear,
1 hold the breath of my soul to hear!
II listen as deep as to horrible hell,
AS high Is to heaven, and you do not tell!
..There must be a pleasure in dying sweet,
To make you placid from head to feet!
Il would tell you, darling, if I were dead,
And 'twere your hot tears that were on me
shed.
'Iwould say though the angel ofdeath had laid
His sword my lips to keep it unsaid.
''You shouldn't ask vainly, with streaming eyes
Which of all deaths was the chiefest surprise?
1.-THE very strangest and suddenest thing
u, hriY,u
All foolish world! oh, most kind dead!
Tho he told me, who viii believe it was said?
Who will believe that he heard her say,
With the sweet, soft voice, in the dear old way,
1.-THE utmost wonder is this-I hear
And see you, and love you, and kiss you, dear.
''And am your angel, who was your bride,
And kno' that though dead, l have never died"

An exchange gives this prescription
how to blow up a town without dyna-
mite: "Oppose improvements. Mis-
trust its public men. Run it down to
strangers. Go to some other town to
trade. Lengthen your face when a
stranger talks of locating in it. If a
man wants to buy your property
charge him two prices. If he wants to
buy of anybody else interfere and dis
courage him. Refuse to see any bene
fit in the scheme that does not direct
ly benefit you. If you can't hog every
thing, judge everybody by yourself
and accuse them Of doing SO. Do not

FOUND THFM OUT.

Mrs. May Wright Sewall, at the ded-
ication of the new WOmen's club House
at Indianapolis, explained why the
building had not been completed in
five months, promised by her nine
months ago:
eve have learned many things in
the past nine months tending to recon
Gle US to our own limitations. Prior
to that time our intimate personal
associations with men had been limited
to our own fathers, brothers, and hus
bands; those prompt, accurate, time
keeping, infallible gentlemen who are
never too early for breakfast and new
er too late for dinner, whose move
ments are as calculable as those of the
finest chrOnOmeter. Our knowledge
of other men was limited to that acquir-
ed when we met them on dress parade,
with all their virtues hanging thick
and bright about them. We have now,
however, learned that cooks, dress
makers, and miIliners-that women,
in shOrt-are not the only people upon

rests lightly. We have found that the
average man, in his every day business
relations, suffers from the same lapses
of memory and deviations from strict
consistency which we bad been taught
to believe peculiar to women. We
have found him as charmingly uncon-
scious of the value Of time in the
matter of engagements, and as bewitch-
ingly incapable ofregulating his move
ments by the clock and the calendar,as
any women living. For the annoyance
es connected with these discoveries
there have been compensations in the
form of an increasing complacency.
We have always thought well of men.
Now that we have learned that they
share those weaknesses of which we
had hitherto supposed ourselves the
mOnopOlistS, shall we think i'll of them,
or well OF ourselves? The latter surely!"

artificial leg. 1t is owned by Mr.. j. B.
Broaden. The goose happened to have
the misfortune to lose foot somehow.

not hop fast enough to keep up with
the rest of the geese. Mr.. Broadell
took joint of cane and fitted the leg
of the goose in the hollow of the cane
bound it to the leg of the goose with a
cord, and cut off the lower end of the
cane even with the foot that was not
injured. The goose now walks with
ease, and seemingly without pain

To prevent the paint on iron or
wood from scaling off when exposed
to the weather, first thoroughly wash
the parts to be painted and then
seed oil. By following this method,
especially with iron articles, no seal
ing of the paint will occur. In cases
where the articles to be painted are
small and can be readily heated, it is
better to plunge them into the oil.
The thin liquid oil when hot enters
into the pores of the metal, absorbs
the moisture, and the paint then APP
piled so firmly adheres that frost, rain
or air can not effect a separation.

a week or two ago lady of Chicago
wrote a note to the Tribune recon-
mending the use of horseradish as a
means of alleviating the miseries of
the grip, if not effecting thorough
cure. Several instances in which this
suggestion was acted upon with strik-
ingly favorable results have come to
the knowledge of the Tribune. Ordi-
nary grated hOrseradish, eaten at fire.
quent intervals during the day and in
connection with food at the table, if
food is eaten at all, has been found re-
markedly efficacious in banishing the
distressing cough that frequently lin
gers after all the other symptoms of
the grip have gone. 1t can dono harm
to try it, at all events. The humble
but pungent horseradish must have
been made for some good use. Chicago

GIVE got him-I've got himl Hurry

1 would like to give Alice's own
words, as she sent them in letter to
Chicago.
If you could have seen Mr.. Lincoln's
face! You would have cried! He stood
in the doorway, silent, tired and alb
stracted. Tad tugged and pushed him
along, while Mrs. Lincoln came up to
him and said: eve have something
you like
The surprise and pleasure dawned
slowly into his eyes; he sat down OPP
posite his wife, with Tad between
them He seemed to understand it
all-his little family, the old-fashioned
home dish, the loving attention. Be
fore he ate one mouthful he rose from
his chair, walked around to his wife,
laid his big hand on her shoulder and
said:
''Mary, wish we were back in the
old home, when you did the cooking
and I helped with the chores! They
were our best days"
hustled into the hall, almost chok-
ing to death, with Jumps in my
throat, and when I came back with a
glass of milk for Tad, Mr.. Lincoln was
laughing and eating my chicken with
all his might. His whole salary could
not have given me the pleasure and
reward that his smile and good appe-
tite did. ''He ate three helps, and
more gravy than you and me and
mother could, all put together!" said
Tad.
When he went out Mr.. Lincoln said:
''Wife, you and Alice will make me
sick with such good dinners. [ have
not tasted meal like that since-since
well, Mary, think it's safe to say,
you and I were the head cooks!"
