 Wall street was the bluest place in the country six weeks ago. Now it is the most cheerful, and the lambs are frisky enough. r The American Board closed it's financial year September 1, with an increase of nearly 13l per cent in donations and a slight increase in legacies over last year. The total receipts from donations and legacies for 1891, amounted to s6ss, 1929, as compared with s617,7 for 1890. This indicates renewed confidence in the man agement of the board.
 The Jewish Messenger, in referring to the management of Jewish institutions in New York city, says: ''Not many years ago, if man withdrew from the syna- gogue it was imperative that he should not be considered among those eligible for office in any of our institutions. Now, on | the contrary, @ man may openly boast of having discarded all Judaism, of having no connection whatever with the sect or creed, and he is calmly selected for res ponsible directorship in Jewish institu- tion because of his personal trade infu- ence."
 Reports of increased attendance at the free schools of England furnish proof that the new educational law over there is al- ready accomplishing excellent results, bet ter in fact than at first seemed immediately probable. But there still appears to be large classes of English parents who will not send their children to schools of any kind until forced to do 80; and it looks as if, to meet this condition of things, par lament will soon have to supplement the free school law with law for compulsory schooling, thus following the American ex- ample in it's entirety.
 A treaty of reciprocity with Mexico would confer great benefits upon the southern States which lie along the bound. ary between that country and the United States. It so happens that many of the products of Alabama, Louisiana and Texai would be placed upon the Mexican fret list if reciprocal trade relations were estab lished, while the ease with which these articles could be dispatched across th' border from these States would make sucf trade decidedly profitable. While these southern States would be specially benefit ed, the good effects of a larger trade witl this near neighbor could not fail to be fel north as we'll as south.

THE ALCOHOL STOVE.
Mrs. g. w. Bacon Receives Very
Serious Burns.
PLUcKlLY PUT OUT THE FIRE.
BY Remarkable Presence OF Mind She
Avoids = Fatality-Woo1en Gar
ments Saved Her Life.

Mrs. George W. Bacon, who resides at 5l2
South Twelfth street. at $50 o'clock yesterday
was quite seriously burned. and lies at her resi-
dence suffering the most intense agony.
The accident occurred while Mrs. Bacon was
making preparations for the evening meal She
started TO ill small alcohol stove, and putting
in too much of the spirits the stove overhowed.
The cooking apparatus stood on paper, and
when the stove was lighted the paper also
became ignited and fared up in q large, quick
blaze In endervoring to extiuguish the paper,
which was on fire, the clothing of the lady
caught, and in a moment she was completely
enveloped in fIames Then Mrs. Bacon, rcaliz-
ing the peril, began to tear off her clothing
Her screams of agony brought neighbors to her
assistance, who, however, did not arrive until
the plucky woman had herself put out the
flames The window sill in the kitchen was
singed, showing that fire would have occurred
had ii not been for Mrs. Bacon's presence OF
mind.
Upon the arrival of others it was found that
Mrs Bacon was very seriously and dangerously
burned. Her right arm and hand, right ear and
the hair on the right side of her head were
badly burned, as well as the lett breast and body
down to the right thigh.
DR.. s. J. Holmes was called in, and pronounced
the burns of very dangerous character. He
placed his patient under the influence of
opiates, and reported her resting easily and
quietly ldst night III I1luHlBut ne shiu tuds IA
Mrs. Bacon had not worn wooden undergar-
ments nothing could have possibly saved her
from having been fatally burned.
Mrs. Bacon late in the evening complained OF
a difficulty in speaking, and it is feared she may
have inhaled some of the scorehing flames. Dr..
Holmes, however, gives it as his opinion that
the burns are not necessarily fatal.
Mr.. Bacon was not at home at the time OF the
accident, but was sent for, and was quite over
come at the distressful intelligence.

IL disappears
the worst forms of catarrh, with
the use of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Rem
edy. It's mild, soothing, cleansing
and healing properties effect a per.
feet and permanent cure, no matter
how bad the case, or of how long
standing. It's a remedy that sue
ceeds where everything else has
failed. Thousands of such cases
can be pointed out. That's the
reason its proprietors back their
faith in it with money. They offer
$500 reward for case of catarrh
which they cannot cure. It's
medicine that allows them to take
such risk. Doesn't common sense
lead you to take such a medicine?

Funny, isn't it, how some people
prefer sickness to health when the
remedy is positive and the guaran-
tee absolute.
Wise men don't put money back
