A reporter witnessed an extraordinary
scene in the vicinity of Biddleville, n.
G. In front of small cabin a pulpit
had been erected. In this stood a col
ored man preaching at the top of his
voice There was no one except the re-
porter and preacher near, and the former
stood and listened, but was not noticed
by the speaker. On inquiry it was found
that the preacher was Robert Bell. Two
years ago he was fired from the pas
torate of the Presbyterian church at
Biddleville because he wanted to go into
his church barefooted. He was warned
against this offense, and. needing it not,
one Sunday as he attempted to ascend
his pulpit shoeless, half a dozen good,
pious deacons seized him and fired him
from the church. On that day Bell de-
clared that he would preach three times
every day in his own yard, and he does
it, although no one goes to hear him.

Mrs Fenwick Muller, a London
writer of note, comes out strongly on
the subject of Lady Montagues methods
of discipline, and incidentally has some
plain words to say about punishments
for children in general, and specially
is she moved by that ineffable brutal
ity, the shutting up of young children
in the dark Darkness is full of ter,
rors to child. Out of the gloom
come all sorts of horrible imaginings.
and many a child has been half ruined
for life by the terror of darkness, will
fully inflicted by some woman either
too brutal to care or too ignorant to I'M
derstand the Internal cruelty of leaving
children, whose imaginations are often
far more vivid than those of adults, in
all the horror of blackness, out of which
they, in their combined fancy and ig-
norance, ring forth all kinds of terrible
and threatening things. No young chill
dren should ever be left without glim-
mer of light in bedroom all night
long, as touch OF indigestion, trou-
blesome dream, a sudden awakening,
afraid and into darkness, may work
nerve mischief that may last lifetime.
"There is no crime that child can
commit that would entitle us to expose
him or her to the mental agonies of soil
tude in darkness, many peopled as it is
with phantoms and terrors. We know
that even in our prisons this terrible
punishment is only resorted to to subdue
the most violent and refractory prison
ers, and that even then it is hedged
round with many restrictions, and only
permitted to be used for limited space
of time. If there is woman living
whose heart does not respond to these
strong words there is something very
radically wrong with her"

Mrs. French Sheldon, the well known
African traveller, has received a very
pressing invitation from Mrs. Potter
Palmer, lady manager of the womens
department in the Chicago exhibition,
to exhibit her splendid collection of AT
rican curiosities at the coming exhibi-
ton. Mrs. Sheldon won the confidence
of the natives and especially of the
women in way no man could ever hope
to do, and in this way she succeeded in
gaining information of much interest
and novelty and securing objects which
had never been seen out of Africa be-
fore. One woman followed her 25C
miles up country before she could be in
duced to part with leather apron which
only married women wear, but which
they never sell or give to strangers, as
they have an idea that should they dc

in morning, ALLcocK's PLAsrERs are sure

Try this before you resort to opiates.
u any of your muscles are lame-joints

you suffer with any local pains or aches,
these plasters will cure you.
If you use them once you will realize
why so many plasters have been made in
imitation of them. Like all good things,
they are copied as closely as the law allows.
Don't be duped by taking an imitation
when it is as easy to get the genuine.
If you always insist upon having ALL

Lieut.. Schwatka, of polar fame, sur
veys mankind from China to Peru with
equal mind. Having exhausted the arctic
circle, lie took himself to the equator.
In returning he has now reached Ell Paso,
Texas, accompanied by Mr.. f. Howard
O'Neill, in charge of eleven cliff dwellers
from the Sierra Madre mountains. These
cliff dwcllers are members of the Tahuar-
mari tribe, and speak language of theil
own. They came from Tukova, 200 miles
from Chihuahua. and travelled the whole
distance on foot, beating their master,
who rode. One of these men is known to
have travelled 100 miles in twelve hours,
an achievement that recalls the stories of
the old Greek runners. Lieut.. Schwatka
intends to exhibit his strange companions
in the principal cities of the country, and
then to take them to Europe to join Buff
falo Bill, -Harpers Bazaar.

An English paper says: If the trade in
India and Ceylon tea goes on increasing,
as it has done of late, the tea trade of
China will soon be defunct. AS it is, the
importing of China tea is regarded as
profitless by firms who once had good
reason to think otherwise, but who now
find the game not worth the candle. Ac-
cording to the board of trade returns for
December, 1899, just issued, the ship
ments Of tea from India are now far in
excess of those from China, having
amounted for the year to 1877, 100, 900
pounds, against 113, 005, 900 pounds; while
those from China were only SO, $40, 900
pounds, against 105, 424 900 pounds in
1888. AS the shipments from Ceylon are
now very large the customs commission
ers have issued a general order, dated
Dec. 80, 1889, directing that for the fut-
ure the imports thence are to be shown
separately, and that the same distinction
shall be observed with regard to tea
taken out of bond for consumption. The
distinctions will therefore be British
East India, "Ceylon, "China" Gnclud-
ing Hong Kong and Macoa) and "other
countries" and the statements of the ex-
ports of tea will also be based on the
same plan as regards the country of pro-
duction or origin.-Montreal Star.

The pearl hunters of Borneo and the
adjacent islands have peculiar super
stition. When they open shells in search
of pearls, they take every ninth find,
whether it be large or small, and put it
into bottle which is kept corked with
dead mans finger. The pearls in the
vial are known as "seed pearls or
breeding pearls" and the native Bor-
Moose firmly believes that they will re-
produce their kind. For every pearl
put into the vial two grains of rice are
thrown in for the pearls to feed" upon.
Some whites in Borneo believe as
firmly in the superstition as the natives
do, and almost every hut along the coast
has its dead finger" bottle with from
nine to fifty seed pearls and twice that
number of rice grains carefully and
evenly slowed away among them. Pro-
fessor Kimmerly says that nearly every
burial place along the coast has been
desecrated by pearl breeders in search
of corks for their bottles.-St. Louis Re.

An Awful Thing to Remember

When a bachelor getting out Of bed
on a cold morning decides to keep on his
night robe till the room gets warmer
and then thoughtlessly hurries away to
breakfast, where people smile slyly and
significantly, it does not add to his JOY
to remember that he did not make the
change in the apparel he contemplated.
