Who wanted them to run all these risks, supposing them to be true? What good have they done by their days of starvation and nights of sleeplessnesss their perils by land and sea? their chances of being devoured by wild beasts or stuck up by bushrangers9 taken by brigands or insulted by row dies of all nations?
 They have contributed nothing to our stock of knowledge, as Marianne North has done. They have solved no ethno- logical problem; brought to light no new treasures of nature; discovered no new field for British spades to till, no new markets for British manufactures to supply They have done nothing but lose their beauty, if they had any; for what went out fresh and comedy comes back haggard and weather beaten. It was quite unnecessary. They have lost, but the world has not gained; and that doctors bill will make hole in the pub fishers check.-Mrs. Lynn Linton in Nineteenth Century.

"Do you see that peculiar looking stud that man is wearing on his shirt frontT' said hotel clerk the other day, point. ing to gentleman standing near by, and on whose expansive bosom was fastened gold button with bird in black enamel upon it.
 "That man is St. Louis drummer, and he has been wearing that stud for twenty years to my knowledge" added the clerk. "It was twenty years ago that he married relative of Patrick Egan, of Nebraska. Previous to that time a certain young business man of Chicago was also counting her, and among the presents he once gave her was pair of cuff buttons, of which that stud was one. The rival saw these buttons one day on the young lady's cuffs, and in jest purloined one of them and placed it in his shirt front. When leaving the house afterward he encountered the Chicago suitor, who spied the jewel. An explanation was demanded of the young lady and an angry scene followed, and the Chicago man left in huff.
 When the St. Louis drummer called the next time he proposed and was ac- cepted. After their marriage his wife told him that had the Chicago lover pro posed first, which he undoubtedly would have done but for the cuff button episode, she would have accepted him. Ever since that time the happy husband has been wearing that button, and money could not buy it of him. ."-San Francisco Call

A strange relationship exists in the family of a couple of Englishmen in this state. Some ten years ago two brothers named Beers came to this country from England and settled on small farm in Menefee county. Things prospered with them, and soon one of the brothers, Philip, becoming tired of lonely life on the farm, wooed and won Miss Lizzie Johnson, a young rural beauty. They were married and lived happily together nearly eight years. Something, how ever, disturbed the harmony of their married life, for last summer Philip ap- piled for and obtained divorce. Life seemed to have lost all charms for him.
 In the mean time the other brother, Louis, also tired of the unlucky lot of the lone bachelor, began to cast about him for helpmate, and must have dis covered in his brothers late wife the sum of all his future happiness, for the little village near which the brothers re. sided was one day suddenly electrified to hear that Louis and the grass widow had been made one. The news came to Philip, who simply smiled and replied, "Never mind; my inning comes next"
 Little attention was paid to the re. mark, and certainly no one thought of the strange denouement that would fol- low. The ordinary routine life of the

DANGER ON THE ELEVATOR.

People Who Should Be Careful How
 They Use the Rapid Lifts.
 The general use of rapid travelling ele- vators is having an effect upon the peo- pie who use them that is causing a good deal of speculation as to whether it is safe for person having weak heart to ride up and down on them habitually. Some persons believe that the rapid mo- ton and sudden stops are liable to pro- duce heart disease. Doctors are not posi- tive on the subject, but their opinions seem to lend color to the theory that a person with weak heart should not ride frequently on such elevators.
 "This is certainly very interesting question:" said Dr. Thomas J. Mays, who makes diseases of the heart a specially. "I have heard people com blaming of Q sinking feeling in these rapid transit elevators, but whether the movement of the elevator has any effect on the heart or not l am not prepared to say. When persons heart is diseased in any way the slightest change of en- vironment will affect it, of course. The movement of the elevator causes a change of environment, but it may or may not cause an aggravation of the heart trouble. Doubtless it quickens the movement of the heart, but without investigation of the subject it would seem to me that the movement of a rapid transit elevator would only affect those persons whose hearts are affected. However, am not prepared to give an opinion without study of the question" |"
 Dr. Frank Woodbury, another physi- elan who gives heart troubles special attention, also said he had not studied the question, but he was rather inclined to think the movement of rapid transit elevator would affect person; "but," said he, ''l think it would have more effect on the nerves than on the heart. came down in one of those elevators this morning with lady, and she con- plained of sinking feeling, as if she was going to faint. Not having given the matter any serious consideration, I am not prepared to give an opinion, but l should think nervous people would very probably be affected by the sudden and swift upward or downward motion of an elevator"
 Dr. John B. Shoemaker was another physician who declined to express an opinion. "I have heard the matter dis cussed," said he, but have not given it personal attention. The motion of a rapid elevator undoubtedly has tenn porary effect on some people, but whether it affects the heart permanently or not l cannot say"
 Another physician said that many persons nerves and hearts are affected by the excessive use of tobacco, and the rapid motion of the elevator will always affect them. The heart is always af. fected by the constant use of tobacco, and its movement easily quickened by excitement of any kind. This is espe- cially the case with persons of a nervous temperament, and those persons always have sinking feeling when rapid transit elevator suddenly starts or stops. Whether these rapid transit elevators have permanent effect upon the heart or nerves, he would not venture an opinion.-Philadelphia Record.

ground beneath her village, ana now ne crept out and poisoned the springs, be- cause he craved the flesh of human be- ings and could never get enough of it so long as they died from natural causes. The maiden remained in the cave until her ugly old suitor was dead; then she returned, and the god killed the serpent with a thunderbolt.
 The great dead snake was so huge that when the people laid its body out in death it stretched over more than twenty arrow flights, and as it foated down the waters of the Niagara it was as if mountain appeared above them. Its corpse was too large to pass the rocks, so it became wedged in between them and the waters rose over it, thus fashioning the horseshoe, which remains to this day. y.-Washington Star.

How Niagara Was Formed.

Once upon time there was beauti. ful Indian maiden who was compelled by her family to engage herself to marry a hideous old man of her tribe In her desperation she leaped into canoe and pushed 1t over the roaring breakers of Niagara, preferring the angry waters to the arms of her detested lover. But the god of thunder, cloud and rain, who watches over the harvest, dwelt in 8 cave behind the roaring cataract. He caught her just as her frail bark was dashing upon the rocks below and gave her home for many weeks in his own mysterious cavern.
 From him she learned many new things, among them why her people died so often. He told her how an enormous snake lay coiled up under the

The Latest.

The election table tonight is com plete with the exception of West Hua- chuca. It will be seen that there was an election at Ross Mill. At West Huachuca the returns were mailed at Lochiel and are expected up to- night by stage. The vote as tele- graphed last night as having been cast at West Huachuca and as brought over to-day from there by Billy King was taken from the memory of one of the Duncan brothers and Is very near ly correct. It is inserted in the table, subject to revision. The other returns are officially received from the inspec- tor of the elections, who sent them in to the PRosPEcToR office per instruc- tions of the supervisors. It was sup posed when the returns were received today ct this office mailed from Bis bee that they were from West Hua- chucs, e the report that no election had been held at Ross Mill was be- lieved, and West Huachuca was the only point that had not been heard from. It turned out, however, later in the afternoon that an. election was held at Ross Mill, and the returns re- oeived from Bisbee, supposed to be from West Huachuca were from Ross mill.

 SAIEM, MAss., March g, 1891.
 "When at Stuttgart, Germany, dur ing the winter of 1sS1-S2, was suffer- ing from a severe attack of bronchitis, which seemed to threaten pneumonia. I met at the Hotel Marquardt Con- mander Beardslee. of the United States Navy. In speaking of my sickness, he remarked: Doctor, you can cure that chest trouble of yours by using an ALLcoCK's POROUS PLAs- TER" That may be true,' answered, but where can get the plasterT Anywhere in the civilized world and surely here in Stuttgart. Whenever I have cold always use one and find relief sent to the drug store for the plaster, and 1t did all that my friend had promised. Ever since then l have used them when suffering from a cold, and have many times prescribed them for patients.
 The ALLcocE's PLASTER is the best to be had, and has saved many from severe illness, and undoubtedly if used promptly will save many lives. When ever one has a severe cold they should put on an ALLcocK's PLASTER as soon as possible. It should be placed across the chest, the upper margin just below the neck; some hot beef tea will aid :n the treatment.
 This is not patent remedy, in the objectionable sense of that term. but a standard preparation of value. The Government supplies for the U. s. Army and Indian Hospital Stores contains h.LCocK's PLAsTERs, and the medical professioc throughout the world are we'll aware oi .seIr reliabil- ity and excellence. l shall always recommend them, not only to break up colds, but as useful in allaying pains in the chest and back. It is a preparation worthy of general confi- dence."

 Well" the lady said: 'I suppose you all know how to swim?"
 The young men were compelled to confess that not one of them could swim.
 ''Oh we'll" said the lady. lin that case l will go with you. If none of you can swim. you will be careful"
 She entered their boat, quite conf dent that they would not tip it, nor rock it, nor play any of the jokes which foolish boys sometimes play on the water. because we can swim, you know "-Youth's Companion
