Cures for the IsIues.

Do you ever have the blues? OF course
you do, for there never yet lived a man
or woman whose soul cast no shadow
These times of depression, from which
we all of us suffer more or less, are moth
ing more than the shadows cast by our
souls in the road along which we are
walking heayenward Sunshine rays
produce shadows, and the fact that our
souls go into eclipse now and then
proves that there is sunshine just behind
us. But what do you do when you get
the blues! Do you cry or scold or NOPE?
Is it hard to live in the same house with
You while the shadow falls athwart
your wayI Do the children get out Of
the road when they see you coming? |
have found one excellent cure for the
blues which mean to tell right here.
Go straight TO work and do something
for some one more miserable than your
self. Whatever your trouble may be,
there is always some one to be found
who has harder lot to bear. The other
day " young wife was deserted by her
husband and taken to the hospital TO face
a terrible illness, without friend to
stand by her in her hour of need, and
with not cent to defray expenses or un.
lock the door Of the future. Suppose you
90 hunt her up and offer u helping hand.
Such betrayal and desertion discounts
your puffs Of vspor. A mother watched
the coffin lid close the other day forever
and forever. so far as mortal time
counts, between her yearning eyes and
the face Of her only boy. What is your
transient depression compared to the
heart anguish Of such a grief as hers?
Don't you think /. would help cure you
Of the blues if you sat down and wrote
that mother n letter, or dropped in for
an hour or two to keep her company? 1t
seems such selfish thing to be so exclu-
give in bearing trouble. A load shared
is a load lightened, and the deepest
gloom takes OH bright tint now and
then If overshone with the sunshine
Of love,--Chicago Herald.

The Poor Waiter,

People are pretty hard ON us" said
waiter in an up town cafe tho other
night, considering what we have to go
through with sometimes. have been
in this room, and on my feet, hurrying
most Of the time, for nearly fourteen
hours. It's hard TO keep ones temper
for such a stretch as that, and to be as
lively and quick witted as when one be-
gan his days work. At that table over
there where those three men are sitting
they kept me standing for ten minutes
before they gave me their orders. They
were just talking, not discussing what
they wanted TO eat, but finishing up
some argument. Now if | had gone
away and waited until they had got
through with their talk they would
have called me inefficient and negligent;
80 stood there, and when / finally got
their orders and started away man at
the next table was angry and stopped
me to tell me that was the worst waiter
no had ever seen. So you pee how it is."

GIadstone's Opinion of the Criticism of
the Scriptures.
LONDON, Jan. S.-Mr. Gladstone has
written from Biarritz a letter on mod
ern criticism of the Bible. In this let
Ter Mr. Gladstone states:
| consider that the ancient record has
undergone a certain amount of revival in
credit and authority. | recommend those
who are approaching the question to
consider: First, we must be on cur guard
against drawing warmth of affection into
the field as having the force of argument;
we should rather endeayor to defend the
scriptures upon the same principles
of evidence and reasonableress gov
crning our mental processes in
other matters. Second, when the
arguments Of specialists poiLt to
negative conclusions, we should beware OF
haste. We should reserve our judgment
even if yielding provisional assent until
we know the specialists have SAID their
last word and we have had an opportunity
to compare their results with the wider
considerations belonging to the fields OF
history, philosophy and religion at large.

this morning that the Secretary was
feeling all right, but would remain at

sent dow1. word that he expected to be

Secretary Blaine is taking things easy
to-day and running no risks by ventur-
ing out doors. He is reported to be
quite recovered from yesterdays attack
of Indigestion, but is somewhat weak.
DR.. Hyatt called this morning, and, after
looking at the Secretary and
chatting with him for awhile,
advised that he keep very
quiet to-day and try and rest himself
The Secretary followed this advice and
remained in his room during the day.
The physician said there was no ap-
parent reason why the Secretary should
not resume his official duties tomorrow.
1t is therefore possible that he will at
tend the cabinet meeting tomorrow.
At the State Department there were
numerous inquiries as to the Secretary's
health and the universal reply was that
he was all right. There were also many
callers at the house. These were IN

Taken Suddenly and Seriously III in the
>tmte Department.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 6.-Great ex-
element was caused in the Department
OF State this forenoon by report that
Secretary Blaine had been taken sud-
denly Ill while at work in his office. The
report proved to be true, but every pre-
caution was taken to prevent the fact
becoming public. SUPERINTENDENT
Browne, of the navy, whose Office is in
the same building, was summoned and
WAS promptly in attendance. Another
physician from the War Department
was also on hand, and in few minutes,
under their joint efforts. Mr.. Blaine
was made to feel com paratively COM
Portable. His daughter, Miss Hattie,
was informed OF his condition, and was
soon at his side. The alarm was
great at first, but subsidized about
noon when the Secretary was reported
as resting easily and as being entirely
out of danger. The nature of his i'll
ness is not known at present, but is said
to be due altogether to temporary stom-
achic derangem ent.
The Secretary was removed to his
home in a carriage. He is now report
eu 10 De Inuch improved, ana 1t IS eX-
pected that he will be able to be out to-
morrow. His son, James G. Blaine,
Jr., left this city this afternoon for Phil
adelphia
Later information concerning Secre-
tary Blaine's sudden illness established
the fact that it was caused wholly by an
attack of Indigestion, the result of some
lmprudence at breakfast and that as
soon rs his stomach was relieved by a
light emetic Of salt and water he
suffered no further pain, but simply the
attereftects of nausea. The only pre-
6cription made for him subsequently,
was a simple limewater mixture to re-
store the tone of the stomach. His
daughter was sent for before the nature
Of his indisposition was known.

Thirty Persons Killed in q Fight Between

New YORK, Jan. 6.-The steamer Sc
gurane, which arrived to-day from Bra
Zil, brings the first information Of
bloody encounter between the gov
eminent troops and the people
of Santos, in which a number
of lives were lost. On December II
the government sent military govern
or to Santos to replace the former gov
ernor of that place. The people regarl-
ed this as an act of tyranny and oppre5-
sion. When, on December II, the mil
itary governor appeared surrounded by
troops the revolutionary feeling of the
people broke loose and the storm was
soon raging. The soldiers endeayored
to dispense the citizens, and were pelt-
ed with stones and other missiles. The
order then came to fire on the people,
and at the first volley dozen citizens
fell dead while a number were wounded.
The revOlutiOnists gave way but quickly
gathered renewed courage and pre-
pared to make a desperate resistance.
The troops charged on and drove them
from street to street, many citizens
falling pierced by bayonets or bullet.
A pitched battle took place q
one of the plazas and IL
din of musketry coupled with the crl'
of the wounded and dying filled the air
When the tumult finally subsidized and
opportunity was offered to look over the
scene, it was found that 80 had
been killed outright and 70 or 100 were

TROOPS FIRE ON A MOB.
Several Persons Killed in q Tobacco Rio1
at Teheran.

TEHERAN, Jan. THE agitation start
ed by the priests against the tobacco
regime resulted in riot. A mob assem-
bled at the Shah's palace and not only
demanded the abolition of the export
monopoly, but the expulsion from
the country Of the members of
the tobacco corporation. The mob
became riotous, and all efforts
on the part of the minister of war, who
is son of the Shah, to pacify them
were unavailing. 1t was finally found
necessary to call upon the military to
dispense the rioters. In the fighting
that followed several pc sons were
killed. The government, finding that
the popular agitation was increasing, de-
decree was issued canceling the mo-
nopoly given the company to export
