WOMEN LOVE TO GAMBLE.

Everybody has heard of the queer
little principality of Monaco, of the
famous town OF Monte Carlo and its
Casino, the Mecca of all the gamblers
of Europe. Leaving out the brief
period when it was merged in the
French republic OF 1893, Monaco Is
one of the oldest principalities in the
world, but it is now on the land side
bounded everywhere by French terri
tory, and as all restraints are practi
cally withdrawn gambling goes on
with more magnificence than ever.
Since 1869 the entire revenue of the
principality ut covers but six square
miles and has 5000 inhabitants) con
sists of tho rents of the Casino From
the early morning when professional
gamblers crowd the hall. till late at
night, when the cash is locked in iron
bound chests, continues change goes
among the habitues. but in the last
few hours titled ladies and noblemen,
famous actresses and sports, criminals
and statesmen, innocent looking girls
and grizzied harridans jostle eacL

during the vacation season sits fam

French duchess. and of her an anec-
dote is told which illustrates the ma

She complains to one Of the official
that she and her friends received sean.

stamped her foot and said: ''Sir,

here are duchess"
Brawls and money snatching' as
it is called that is, taking another's
winnings are frequent, and but a few

the night, but did not give them real

There is a saying there that ''all
women are gamblers at heart" and
really there seems to be something in
it, for the fascination Of the Casino
overcOmes thousands who would never
be suspected at homo. English visi-
tors often complain that they are jostl-

by men and women whose character

the bland officials only smile ''All

Chris Reiser thought to surprise
the natives" down South. SO he took
a pen of nice Berkshire pigs to an Ark
ansas fair last fall The contrast with
the razor back hogs" was very appar-
ent The quiet, smooth fat pigs were
much admired, but the judges ignored
them when awarding the blue ribbons
and prizes. Chris wondered how his
could be, and thought it was an over
sight, SO he sought an explanation.
The judges admitted the Berkshires
were every way superior, but unsnited
for the South. He was plainly infrom-
ed that Southern farmers have no
use for a breed of hogs that cannot
out-run a nigger"

Once an old EngliShman, James
Scott by name, travelled about on busi-
ness until he was nearly 50 years of
AGE, says HUper'S iogRg People. He
became celebrated for his punctuality
and his methodical habits. Upon one
occasion a gentleman stopped at an
inn much frequented by Mr.. Scott and
saw a fine fowl cooking. That is very
good, said the hungry guest. You
may serve that for my dinner" You
can not have that, sir" replied the
landlord. That is being cooked for
Mr.. Scott. the traveller" Il know Mr..
Scott very well. said the gentleman.
Is he stopping here21 oh, no. SIR"
answered the landlord. But six

ready fer him al precisely , O'Clock to-

MAT TRIMONlAL WAYS IN WYOMING.
How the Knot Was Tied by Frontier
Justice of the Peace.

Camping near town in Wyoming
we secured our stock and went in.
Entering the leading store of the town
] introduced myself TO Nr. Stiles one Of
the proprietOrs, and the Postmaster.
Stiles said: Its now half-past and
at there's a wedding at Jonas Bur-
tons. Old Jonas is a rough old coon
that we elected a Justice OF the Peace
about a month ago, and as this will be
his first attempt at marriage | think

cabin and found him poring over a
large volume of the Statutes of Wyom-

terribly anxious. After greeting US he
said:
STILES, them galootes that got up

cess is perceded with. Eve just got to
put the clamps on this ere couple hit
er miss, ef don't yoke 'em up legal |
can't help it."
Stiles explained to him about how to
proceed and the old man finally
thought he could worry through in
tolerable shape.
Ere long the couple appeared fol-
lowed by a crowd of citizens of the
camp. The candidates stood before the
Squire, who began:
"Feller-citizens, this yer man and
this Yer woman nave appeared before
the court to be hitched in the legal
bands of wedlock, If any galoot in the
mob knows of anything that might
block the game if tuck to a higher
court let him toot his bazoo or else
keep his jaw to himself now and for
ever more. All in favor of my pro-
ceeding as authorized by law say l."
Every rybody said a."

Nobody said No
The motions carried unanimously.

nothing to prevent the trying of the

The candidates joined hands.

Ancient Wheat.

The Chinese cultivated wheat 400
years before the beginning of the
Christian era, always considering it as
a gift direct from heaven. Scientific
agriculturists are of the opinion that it
was widely known and cultivated by
prehistoric man. At the present time
it is the principal bread corn of the
leading European nations. and is fast
supplanting the use of maize, or Indian
corn, in the American states.

The cause of chronic diseases has at

People have taken Blood Purifiers
and wondered why there was no perma-

diseases.
He has found that certain nerres have
entire control over the stomach, liver,
