satan's Invention of Dyspepsia.

BY those who know whereof ther
speak It is admitted that of all tht
maladies wherewith man is afflicted
there Is none more grievous in its tor,
mentS than dyspepsia. and right
marvellous characteristic OK this affiie
| ton is that with all its malice it seldom
wholly destroys its victim. Dyspepsia
very oftea ineapacitates G nan for en-.
deavor, and IT sometimes extinguishes
the fire or ambition within him, but il
is the diab9lical pleasure of this disease
not to deprive its miserable prey alto
gether of life. and SO We see dyspeptics
crawling aimlessIy about the syorld. too
sick to live as they should live. yet not
quite sick enengb TO die The lot of
these creatures iS wretehed indeed.
Dyspepsia is The Oldest maladr known
to mankind. The Oldest piece of litera-
ture-and perhaps the most remarkable
poem ever written-treats of the career
of dyspeptic. his physical and mental
symptoms, his curious hallucinatiOus.
his refermatory life. his gradual restor-
alton TO health. his subsequent pros
perity ana his wonderous longevity.
We refer 20 the book of Job, to the read
ing,-nay, 20 the study of which We
urge those who are aware that they
have stomachs and those, also. who are
likely to become so aware. The first
lesson which this beautiful
poem teaches is that Satan invented
dyspepsia. The arch fiend makes his
boast that it is in his power TO win Job
from goodness by affecting him sorelv
in body; divinity permitted the trial
to be made, but Insists that the victim |
shall not be killed. So Satan inyents ]
dyspepsia, as we shall-or. rather. as
the poem itself doth-prove.-Eugene

MY KINGDOM AND MY QUEEN

or sung in loyal sonnet,
I've Travelled east, | travelled west
Mid scenes Of wealth and spiendOr,
Bul this one spot love the best,
With all its joys so tender;
No place 20 dear I've ever seen,
For peace relgns here, and Love is queen
Two subjects in my kingdom dwell,
One has an eye 1t azure
And smiles upon her face tell
OF pure and perfect pleasure;
And one has hair OF raven hue
And eyes of hazel beauty,
And what er he may strive 10
He always does his duty
And faithful they have been
To her who Is my household queen
And as life yielded me Lever Joy
And hope divine and human,
| see one now no more boy
And one almost a woman,
The bright days come, the bright days 60,
And each brings some new pleasure.
And no spot on earth | know
Is richer with heart-treasure,
Nor happier subjects ne'er were seen
Than IN my home where Love is queen
By no high-souudng, royal name
Or title they address her,
As cheerily, thsir eyes ailame
" 18th love, they kiss and bless her,
But with voice OF gentle tone,
Which JOY gives 20 each other,
They call her by one name alone,
The hallowed name of motEerl
A name the sweetness known TO mau
Since time and love their course began.

OLD AND NEW ANCHORS.
Sailors becoming Attached to the stocI,Iess
Steel Type.


Among the many inventions that catch
the eye Of the obseryant man along the
piers where the big merchant ships are
made fast, none is more striking than the
passing away OF the old stock anchor, and
the subtitution therefore of the cast steel
stockless type.
The seamen Of the old school were and
are very slow about making this change,
for the simple old mudhook Of their ancest-
ors has survived all the changes which
have brought about the swift merchant
ships of to-day.
Nowadays. space on board the average
shiu does not permit the stOwage Of a great
cumbersome iron anchor. Particularly is
this true in the navy, where the anchor
with its long stock often interieres with
the arc of fire Of The guns. In an engage
ment, if an attempt were made TO cat
and fsh the old style anchor, dozen men
OF more would b. directly exposed to the
enemy's FIRE. For these reasons, and for
the labor that IL saved, seafarlng
men are beginning to prefer the new
stOckes- anchors, wrich can be hoisted
we'll M into the hawser holes and secured
there without interf ring with the iiEt Of
FIRE of the guns Davlts and catfails,
which Gre always unsightly things IN the
bows Of ships, are thus done away with.
One Of The best known Of the new an
chors was recently invented by Lieutenant
In. o. Dunn Of the navy. This anchor is
made of steel. and the prov and Hunks

"A well-known dancing instructor shall
be on hand TO give instruction in all of

dances, and thus the club will provide
all the advantages of a private dancing
class. The members tickets will admit
two persons TO every club entertainment
given at the Talma hall.
The club. in cutting down the num-
Der of its public entertainments and so
much increasing the number Of its pri-
vate ones, will probably meet with
much approval from its friends, but it
will deprive itself of very considera-
BILE revenue. II is thought, however,
that the increase in the number of
members will more than make up the
difference.
The limit of membership has recently
been extended TO $50, and all the pres
ent members have been requested to
make early application for any of their
friends whom they may desire 10 have
