How She Became a NTIss,onarv

I'm doing missionary work a good deal
OF the time, was the reply of one Of the
most Charming women of New York, to q
friend, who asked her how she busted her
sell. Il see BY your looks you wonder
what mean by that. I'll tell you a few
years ago life was q burden TO Inc. hal
been victim TO female weakness Of the
most aggravated character for a long time
and the doctors tailed to help me. Exist
ence was long, steady, terrible torture-a
lingering, living death. One day saw DR.
Pierce's Favolite Prescription advertised in
the newspaper. Something in the adyer-
tlsement impressed me favorably. Icaugh,
at the glimmer OF hope it held out as the
drowning man is said to catch at a straw
Still, did not dare to hope. But got the
medicine, and behold the RESULT | feel so
well. SO strong, and 0, so thankful, that
go about telling other women what saved
ue. In no other way can l SO well show
my gratitude TO God, and to the man who
has proved such benefactor of women,
and my love for my suffering sisterhood."

THERE recently died at San Francisco
q most remarkable man, who had long
rejoiced in the name of King Greig.
He was a Scotchman, and for many
years was builder and master of
small vessels. Thirty years ago he went
to Honolulu, where he built a small
schooner, and set out on a voyage of
exploration. He landed on Tanning ISL
and, of which he took possession in
the name of the queen of England. He
found rioh guano deposits there, as well
as cocoanut palms and good pearl fish
cries. There were about seven hundred
inhabitants on the island, whom he set
to work, and they soon acknowledged
him as king. He soon established a
home among them, and lived in tropical
luxury. Ten years ago he added Wash
ington island to his dominion, and took
the natives into his employ. Receiving
an injury to his leg, he came to San
Francisco to have it amputated, but
blood-poisoning set in and caused his
death.

WHEN Mr.. Porter, of the eleventh
census, gets around to it he may it is
thought be able to show that the CAPT
tai invested in commercial enter
prises in this country is not far from
$50, 000, 00O, 900. In 1880 it was some
thing over sc, 900, Ooo, 900. It has been
estimated that Mr.. Porter's figures
would show the present amount to be
$50, 0O0, OO0, 900, but some estimates indi-
cate that it will be SIC, 600, oO0. 900 above
these figures. England can show moth
ing like it. This is an enormous in
crease in ten years and shows the earn
ing power of the money which is in
vested in business enterprises in the
United States.

We are still great agricultural ma
ton Manufacturers are making gi-
gantic strides American patents, APP
pliances and goods are commanding
the admiration and commerce of all ma
lions in every branch of trade. But
with our wealth of virgin territory yet
undeveloped and that which already
laughs with bounteous harvests, the
fact remains that the tilling of the soil
forms the chief occupation and source
of income in the United States This
fact has been recognized by the insti-
tuition of the governments department
of agriculture, provision wisely made,
meeting great need and giving salts
faction to the hardy sons of that band
of patriots whose shot, when fred at
Lexington, reechoed round the world.
Its work has already been excellent.
and the future of its mission is bright
with promise for the common veal of
the producer and consumer of the food
stuffs which support life.
The state and national governments
can do much for the A merican farmer,
and, if we mistake not, they can bring
about one greatly desired end: Good
roads in country districts This
crying need is receiving a large meas
ure of attention. and not before
it should do. 1t has been estimated by
Mr.. Isaac B. Potter that the deep mud
of spring and fall enforces idleness Of
teams for an average of twenty days
per annum. The loss of this idleness is
eighty million dollars a year, sum
sufficient to build sixteen thousand
miles of excellent highway.
But let it be remembered, urges the
New York Ledger, that officialism can
never supply the place of individual eff
fort and cooperation. It is not mere
legislation and larger appropriations
that farmers want to-day. They de-
mand equal rights for all, special priv
ileges to none. The few must not
thrive at the expense of the many.
Give to our sturdy sons these just and
reasonable claims, and there is no fear
for the result. They will continue to
supply this people with its national
bone and sinew, and raise not only corn
for the worlds markets and Russia's
starving millions, but men such as our
republic needs in its hours of trial and
destiny. In the quiet retreat of the
old homesteads scattered across this
continent, and with no other gifts and
privileges than native force and the
country schools supplied, those charac-
tiers have been formed which passed
thence to every degree of responsibility
and power, from the white house down
ward.

WHEN man hires room at hotel
and pays for it he is justified in believ-
ing that he has some rights which the
landlord should respect. This was the
opinion of countryman who recently
stopped at hotel in Lewiston, Me-,
and was assigned to a room. About
midnight the Waterman, in making his
rounds, perceived the smell of gas and
located the place from which it was es-
Gaping. He put a small boy through the
transom who opened the door. The
sleeper was aroused and asked why he
blew out the gas. He was indignant at
the question, and stated that where he
lived people were not in the habit of
trying to sleep with bright light shin
ing in their faces, and he was not going
to if he was in a large town. He added
that if they required man to have a
bright light in his room all night he
would leave and look up another place.

OBSERVERS in various parts of the
prairie region state that there are fewer
prairie chicken, quail and woodcock
this year than was ever known. The
like is true of all birds that build their
nests on the ground. The long con-
tinued rains and the severe cold OF
spring and early summer destroyed
their eggs or killed their young before
they were large enough to fly. The
floods also destroyed many rabbits,
gophers and striped squirrels. Small
game will be very scarce on the prai-
ries this season. All who live in the
country or have visited it this summer
have noticed fewer birds admired for
their plumage and song. 1t has been
a bad season for birds and small
animals.

It would be dificult to mention an
industry in which this country excels
so much as in its printing material.
more especially that part which is pro-
duced by the type foundrieA This
wonderful proficiency has made itself
felt within the last decade, and the inn
provement is going on with such rapid
strides that one hesitates to predict
what the next ten years will produce
Until quite recently our type founders
seemed content with following in
the footsteps Of their foreign con-
temporaries, and for years most of the
varieties of type known as standard
faces were copied more or less bodily
from the British specimen books In
fact, according to a leading journal Of
mechanics, the making of type in this
country seemed to be afflicted with the
dry rot, and it was not before foundries
began springing up in the west that .
healthy rivalry set in and resulted in
the production of stril1ingly original
designs that now ornament the speci-
men books of even our most conserve
tive foundries. At first, as might have
been expected, many of the crea-
tons emanating from the new
firms were not to be commended. They
went to the other extreme and flooded
the country with the most outlandish
designs In time, the good taste of the
public asserted itself, and these crude
faces, which became known as crazy
type, went out of the market, and only
that which was good has lived The
result is that the printer of to-day is in
comparably better equipped to turn out
artistic work than he has ever been be-
fore. Many Of the type designs of the
present time so faithfully reproduce
the effect of the engraver's work that
the printer can now cope with the lith-
ogrspher, thing that was once thought
impossible. In the matter of orna-
ments and borders our foundries have
fairly eclipsed themselves. The de-
signs they have lately brought forth
have beauties that only the printer can
fully appreciate who was long forced
to put up with the old-time stock Dor
der in all its stiffness To be popular
now border must present that effect
of unconscious freedom which is always
SO pleasing to the artistic sense.
