specimens of gloves were seen dating back

Of those gloves were proof indisputabie

even those of the Middle Ages, the tiny
hands so common among the women OF to

Where to Put p1asters for Neuralgia.

Neuralgia in the face has been cured by
applying a mustard plaster to the elbow.
For neuralgia in the head apply the plas
ter to the back OF the neck. The reason
for this is that mustard is said to touch
the nerves the moment it begins to draw
or burn, and to be of the most use must be
applied to the nerve centers or directly
over the place where it will touch the af-
fected nerve most quickly.-Washington

pension agent and claims attorney.
His probable successor, Mr.. Henry c.
Payne, of Wisconsin, is popularity spoken
of as ''the most adroit of western politi-
cians," which is praise indeed, as the west,
and Wisconsin especially, has some that
are phenomenally adroit. He has piloted
his party in Wisconsin through many vic
torious campaigns, and, according to those
who know him best, ''can detect the fuc-
tuations Of the public pulse even before

MYSTERY.
If the Bible were removed from
civilization, it would leave more
mystery behind it than it would
take away From beginning to end
there is myxtery in the Bible, but
what of 1t? Es not a man mystery
TO a child? And being such, is his
existence to be denied? The child
himself is mystery, and the man
Is blss;a CONFIRMATION of the same
difficulty. There is mystery
that is natural and proper, eyei
necessary 50 to say, and there may
tbe mystery which is simply arbi-
strary, or q mystery to those only
,who refuse to avail themselves OF
.prenered light Is there any mo.
raotoHy 50 intolerable as life would
be without mystery? Every day
brings its own secret, and the sur
prise of h coming hour is often its
keenest jov. Properly understood,
it may be that mystery is but thu
longer word for mercy. We arc
drawn forward by the power of the

IF our United States Senators
could be elected by direct vote of
the people, the Pacific Coast States
would certainly have an ADLER rep
resentation IN Congress. We are
reminded of the rotten, lcprous
system that obtained at one time
in the Roman empire. Statesman
ship gauged by dollars and cents
it not the kind which is required
by a growing republic. We invol-
7lntarily associate with the art of
1noney getting a class of faculties
which are as much out of place in
the White House as monkey in
the sanctuary of the Lord. As the
selections are now conducted it is
possible to corrupt a few individu-
zlls and thus ride into position and
power, but the masses cannot be so
corrupted. We want men of a high
4order of talent, and this we can
hardly promise ourselves as long
rs periodical auctions are held at
our State capitals and money is
used to buy position by eoncealing
defect of stature. Many of our
talented men are rich, it is true,
but we must not conclude from
this that all rich men are talented
men. Not every man who can
quell street fight is qualified to
command the armies of a nation;
and to conclude that a speculator
in real estate or mining stock is
competent to preside over a ma
ton treasury is unreasonable, il
logical, madness.
