virginia Daisies.

Before the war there was no such
flower as the daisy in Virginia. The
hardy flower was a curiosity. Now the
fields just around Richmond are White
with them. This is especially so OF the
late battlefelds about the Chickahomi-
nv river and wherever the federals had
encampments. An Investigation shows
that the seeds Of the prolific daisy were
brought there in the bales OF hay
brought by the union soldiers IN Vlr-
ginia when they were camped near the
city. An old battery west O Richmond ,lt

immense quantity by men and wom-

them, but they are in great dread OF
spirits, and are believed to inhabit
the large forest trees. The snn is
their true conception of an overruling
Deity. Their marriages are arranged
by purchase, the intended husband
paying the girls father the three or
more COWS fixed as the price. Then
the girls run away and effects to hide.
She is sought out by the bridegroom

to which they had been accustomed
since childhood. They took each
day excessive and unaccustomed ex-
ercise, and overstrained ther muscles
by lifting heavy weights. All this was
done without the knowledge of a. phy-
sician.
The result was unexpectedly success
full. During the first fortnight
they lost weight rapidly The
decrease in weight was accom-
panied with sense of prostration and
pains in the limbs, but these things
mattered little tothem compared with
their Joy in the more narrow waists
and delicacy of feature. They perse-
vered with the experiment.
One is now a victim of nervous pros
tration; a second contracted typhoid
fever, and after a struggle of weeks
for life died; the two others have suf-
fered with rheumatic gout. In each
case the physician stated that the
weakening of the tissues by the sudden
and complete change OF diet, had
rendered the patient unable to resist
disease.

A Fact.

From an interview, N. Y. World.
In an interview with a leading drug house
the N. Y. World, Nov. 8, 1890, gives the
following comment on the proprietors Of
reliable patent medicines:
HE is aspecialist, and dshould know more
OF the disease he actually treats than the Or
dinary physician; for while the latter may
come across say fifty cases in year ofthe
particular disease Which his medicine COM
bats, its manufacturer investigates thou
sands. Don't yousuppose his prescription,
is likely to do more good than that Of the
ordinary physician, who charges you any,
where from s. to $40 for giving it, and
leaves you to pay the cost of having it pre-
pared?
"Ihe patent medicine man, too, usually
mas the good sense to contine himself to or
a. d,narY, X. everyday agy diseases. He leaves
there is immediate danger to life,
such as violent fevers. lie does this
because, in the treatment of such cases,
there are other elements of importance be-
SIDES medicine, such us proper diet, good
nursing, nursing knowledge of the patients
strength and so on: Where there is no alb
solutc danger to life, where the disease is
one which some physician has already de-
termlned, the patent medicine maker says
Iearlessly: have a preparation which is
better than any other known and which will
cure YOU In nine cases out of ten his state
mcnt is true"
This is absolutely true asregards the great
remedy for pain, st. Jacobs Oil. 1t can as
sert without fear of contradition, that it is
prompt and permanent cure of pain. 1t
can show proofs of cures of chronic cases of
~, 80 and 40 years standing. In truth it
rarely ever fails if used according to direc-
tions, and large proportion of cures is
made by half the contents of single bottle.
1t is therefore the best.

To Make the Hair Curl,

Coiffeurs have been rlvaling with
each other in inventions which will
give the most natural wave and stay
the longest. One of the designers, Mar
tel, is now called the Koch of hair
dressers, because he alone has dis
covered way of waving the hair that
looks SO natural and lasts so long
that the society women now look as
If they were all born with curly hair.
In vain do the other manipulators of
the brush and comb cudgel their
brains to find out his way. They are
all oblidged to confess their inability
to discover it. This fortunate hair
dresser's salons are so crowded with
women that they are obliged to wait
hours for their turn. He believes in
making money out of inventions, and
complacently acquiesces in a means
which the impatient have taken to
obtain precedence. When the attend
ant opens the door to cry "Next!"
women whose turns will not take
place for some hours bid as ut an arlc-
ton to break the ranks. The colt
feur's price is 50 wave, and one
woman will exclaim, "I'll pay 50 to
60 in now." Another offers 81; the at
tendant waits until the highest bidder
has shouted her price, and then intro
duces her into his masters presence.
This coitfeur is said to make two and
three hundred dollars q day at the
business. The other morning an Eng
lishwoman called to make an appoint
ment for the coitfeur to wave her hair
at home.
"What is your price?" she asked.
"Four dollars when l go to the
house; but it is useless to tell you, for
my time is taken up, and women in
vain have offered me double and triple
the price for precedence"
"Oh, well, money is no object. L
am willing to pay you any price. I'll
give you $40 if you will come at my
convenience"
.For that money 1 shall make the
Others watt" said the practical hair.

uNQUENcHAsLE.

My love is like the dewy rose
She wears upon her breast;
Her breathts like the winds that blows
Balm laden from the west;
Her smiles are like the sunlight shed
On wavelets us the roll,
And like the blue sky ovehead
Her purity of soul.
Her generous thoughts are like the rain
That falls on high and low;
Her kindly gifts to age and pain
None but The wretched know;
Her sympathics are broad as day
And stormy as the night,
And when there's darkness on the way
Her presense sheds light!
Such were my thoughts when love was
young,
But now, when love is old,
Each fancy of my pen or tongue
Is silver turned to gold
wood her in the morn of life,
Ere yet by sorrow tried,
But now cherish her as wife
More than loved as bride.

A Quiet Life.

Next to beauty, or the attractiveness
that passes for beauty, or both, the
object OF the sensible woman's desire
is q quiet life. There is on record q
tale of q young woman who had been
reared in roaring and turbulent city.
Her health was impaired, and it was
decided that she must pass a year in
strict retirement at her husbands
country place, 'far from the madden
ing crowd" At the end ofsix months,
however, she returned to town, de-
claring that so quiet q life was more
than she could endure.
1t appears that during that time she
had thirty-seven different servants,
one of whom was discharged for an at
tempt to set the house on fire while
intoxicated, and one for an attempt
to rob the plate-closet, while half a
dozen more were sent away for violent
quarrels in the part of the establish
ment. Her mother-in-law had been
thrown from a carriage at the foot of
the lawn and injured fatally; her sis
ter-ln-law had come to make a visit
and had improved the opportunity
to run away with q man whom she
had been forbidden to marry. The
time had further been broken in upon
by visits from the six bridesmaids of
the hostess, who invited them in pairs
for two weeks each, and then asked q
few men to meet them, lest it should
be dull. A gale had blown down an
oak SO near the house that it's branch
es dashed in the drawing-room win
dows, and the stables had been struck
by lightning and burned to the ground.
.And such n quiet life," the lady
said, conluding her account, "was too
much for me.''

About Kissing.

On the question as to whether kiss
ing ought to be abolished, in defer
ence to the opinion of the physicians
that dangerous diseases are likely to
be communicated through the contact
of the lips symposium of eminent
non-professienal authorities is unani-
nous in the opinion TIN ut the kiss de-
serves to survive. Such O distin-
guished man as Gen. Tecumseh Sher-
man, for instance, is in favor of kiss
ing, barring only the kiss of two peo-
pie before q third party when the
third party isn't in it. That is Te-
cumseh's opinion, is quite too aggra-
yating.

Countess Tolstoi.

The Countess Tolstoi has lately
visited London as a delegate to the
@iberal Woman's Federation. She is
! a beautiful and accomplished woman
and unlike her husband, is extremely
fond OF society. She gives up her pref
erence, however, and is the novelfst's
private secretary, making type-writ-
ten copies of his prohibited stories and
