Eating and Drinking.

The average healthy man eats near
ly two and one-half pounds of solid
food Gay. He drinks two and
three-fourths pints of liquid day.
1t can be seen therefore, that in order
for him to assimilate this food, all
his organs must be in condition Of
perfect health. A cold is congestion
of some of the blood vessels. The
blood will not circulate A chill fol-
lows, afterwards fever. This is ma
lures effort to throw off the disease.
Now, if he be assisted by dose OF
Reid's German Cough & Kidney Cure,
she will very soon regain her usual
position, and the patient be restored
to health. This great remedy con-
tains no poison. 1t is mild and gen
tie. The only remedy that can. be
given to children without the slight
est fear. If your druggist does not
keep it, send your address to the Syl-
van Remedy Co., Peoria, ILL.,, and get
a trial bottle by mail free. Mention

The eye can hardly grasp the vast
height The blaze of light on the red
sandstones at the top of the mountains
make the dim light down here seem dark
er by the contrast" said Melvorne as we
commenced to ascend the wild, rocky
gorge to get view of the upper falls.
The ladies were very glad now of the aid
of our outstretched hands to help balance
them from one shelving rock, tree or fall
len log to another. At last we reached the
point we sought and were repaid by seeing
the seven falls of the little river with it's
foam and roar, as it leaps in quick success
sion into the depths below.
"If we could imagine some ivy covered
towers made immortal by legendory lore,
this would excel in beauty the Businesses
of the Alps" said Lady Irving.
"When / become an authoress I will
make this the place from which to send
forth thrilling tales of wild Indian maidens
and their brave warrior chiefs,' said Stel-
la, her cheeks glowing from the vigorous
exercise and her eyes sparkling with JOY
GUS animation.
''This place will sometime echo with the
imagination of a Homer, Byron, Or
Scott" said Melvorne. ''It is the very
home of romance and poetry"
Our guide followed us with a dainty
lunch, of which every weary traveller
knows the value. Seated on trunk of a
fallen tree beside cool stream in shady
nook we soon emptied the basket and were
ready for the descent into the canyon.
Weary but delighted we reached the
valley and returned to our hotel Not
withstanding the generous lunch we had
enjoyed, we were ready to devour the
wholesome food spread before us We
were tired enough to rest, but after little
while we met in the parlor where the
evening was passed with music and con-
versation.

jeff Davis Desk.

The desk which Jefferson Davis
used when he was member of the
United States senate is still in the
senate chamber. Senator Cockrell,
of Missouri, uses it now. 1t is re-
lated that during the civil war some
Union soldiers, when the desk was
fointed out to them, attempted to de-
molish it with their bayonets. One
of the attendants fastened to inter
pere, asking, "What are you doing?"
Breaking up JEFF Davis DESK" the
soldiers answered as they made an
other stab with their bayOnets. "lt
is not jeff DAVIS desk" was the an
swer. "It is the property of the gov
ernment, and if you don't stop right
away you will 60 to Jail" Then the
soldiers ceased, but today the ugly
holes made by the bayonets in the
polished mahogany tell mute but
eloquent story of the passions of 1851.

THE LADY AND HER CAT,

He Surprised the Agent and Was as
Handsome as Big.
"Kindly assist me with this basket
carefully, please!'
The speaker, a large, handsome
woman, had just entered the depot.
Diamonds bobbed plavfully in her ears,
made Worth weep for Joy.
Passenger Agent Cummings prompt
ly took the basket. 1t was of medium
size, richly trimmed with satin and
decorated with vari-colored ribbons.
The contents were covered by a quilt
beautifully decorated with needlework.
1t weighed in all nearly forty pounds.
Mr.. Cummings was amazed that a wo-
man of her evident wealth should be
carrying such h avy burden.
Suddenly he felt a strange jolting in
the basket. The quilt was heaving up
and down. Mr., Cummings thought of
babies, dogs, snakes, chickens and mud
turtles all in less than second. 1t
was with feeling of relief that he de-
posted the mysterious bundle on a seat
by the side of the woman.
"Come, Dick" she said, pleasantly.
Instantly the qui went up with a
volcanic burst, and ont popped, like a
whiskered Jack-in -the-box, a huge
gray cat. 1t was the largest that Mr..
Cummings had ever seen. Dick stood
near y eighteen inches high, and was
long and broad in proportion. His
weight exceeded thirtyfive pounds
After showing him proudly the lady
snapped her fingers and the huge cat
jumped back into the basket.
Dick is the Goliath of his race. He
wore about his neck richly orna-
mented gold band bearing medal
from the recent Paris cat show.

A KEEN EDGE,
The Strange Sceae Witnessed in a Con-
stantinople Street.

The Strange Scene Witnessed in a Con-
stantinople Street.
During the Turxo Russian war,
correspondent was among the loungers
who had stood in Constantinople
street to watch the march-past of
regiment OF Zeibecks. When they
were all gone, there came by an old
hoja, holy man, dressed in green robe
and caftan, and wearing yellow slip
pers-self-proclaimed as one who had
made the pilgrimage to Mecca. He
was followed by a very small donkey,
laden with panniers. On the foot
walk stood Circassian, who had been
aourishing in the air, while the troops
went by, formidable-looking yat-
Aghan. This man was now standing,
with an admiring crowd about him,
licking the back of his wrist and shaw
ing off the hair that grew there by
way of showing off the edge and tenn
per of his weapon. 1t must have been
set as finely as razor, and,
like razor, it was broad-backed and
finely beveled. just as the old hoja
went by, and the placid little donkey
followed at his heels, the Circassian
stepped into the horse-road, gave the
weapon braggadocio swing, and at a
single blow cleanly divided the head
of the poor little ass from the body.
The head fell plump; but for a second
or two the body stood, spouting a vivid
streak of scarlet from the neck, and
then toppled over. The old greenclad
hoja turned at the noise made by the
crowd, saw the blood-stained sword
waving behind him, understood at F..
glance what had happened, and fed as
fast as his yellow pantohes would
carry him.

Kate Field and Blaine.

Kate Fields Washington: Winter
before last, under the hospitable roof
of DR.. Loring, I came face to face
with the most popular of republicans.
The pallor of his complexion and his
distrait manner made me feel that
Mr.. Blaine was i'll, and 1 then recalled
what friend told me who was in
Florence, Italy, when Mr.. Blaine
sent for an Italian physician. "Mr,
Blaine's doctor was treating me at
that time" said my friend, land
told me that he could not possibly
live more than five years longer"
Last winter, on meeting NJ. Blaine
at a ball, introduced myself: he had
forgotten me. His manner was still
more distrait, but he talked most
sensiblY about not wanting to be
presidential candidate. "Why should
II" he argued. II refused the
nomination when was four years
younger, and no man of my years
ought to assume duties which are
onerous and thankless. The work Of
a president is largely clerical. He
executes, he does not legislate. After
the senate the presidency has little
attraction" I left Mr.. Blaine, con-
vinced that he was in earnest; his
February letter clinched my faith.
Physically Mr.. Blaine was unfit even
then for any office; the state depart
ment knew it. President Harrison
and Hon. J. w. Foster did work for
which they have never received or
expected credit.
The one thing | did not feel on
meeting Mr.. Blaine was magnetism
"Where is it?" 1 asked his friends
"Oh, well, he's not the man he was.
You should have known him earlier
He's changed" There could be no
doubt about change, mental and
physical, and for two years formerly
brilliant brain was often clouded.
Just before starting for the
Minneapolis convention a delegate
called on the secretary of state, and
told him that large majority of the
delegates would vote for Blaine.
"YLu were always my friend" -"
replied the secretary of state with a
wandering look on his pale face.
"What chance is there OF my
election?"
"Well it will be hard work, but
if any republican can be elected,
you can
On leaving the house another
delegate turned to a friend, saying,
''Blaine will not live six months
Yet republicans, in their desire to
"beat Uarrison," used a dying man
for political purposes.
Let those who have blamed Mr.
Blaine for the action Of last June
hold him guiltless. Those who knew
him best believe that James g..
Blaine was an irresponsible tool
last June. He was himself in Feb
ruary.

what is that massive outline that we
see to the west?" asked Lady Irving.
That is the range of mountains and
that prominent peak is the famous Pixies
Peak of history"
What is that red tower which looks
ike brick fortitication, there to the
northwests" asked Stella.
"That's the gateway to the Garden of
the Gods answered Mr.. Lollard, who
stood with his guide book open in his hand
ready to answer questions.
"Those mountains to the southwest are
the Cheyenne In them are some famous
canyons said the duke.
why, where has the sun gone to?"
asked Mrs. Lollard. ut has disappeared.
at has hid behind Pixies Peak" said
Melvorne. ''Ne have a long twilight here,
for Colorado Springs lies under the after
noon shadow Of ten thousand feet of eter.
nal granite.
After an hour or two of quiet converse
ton we strolled out upon the streets.
Here, as in Denver, they are lined on
either side by tall, graceful trees. Some of
the broad avenues are laid out with double
roadways, separated by two rows of shade
trees and walk, while on either side is
another row of shade trees and walk.
The city is under a thorough system of ir-
rigatiOn. Besides, the water brought IN
open bitches, there is an iron pipe to Rux-
toms creek six miles away on the noun
tain side, which brings pure cold water
from the melting SHOWS on the mountain
top.
This must be a very wealthy city," said
Stella, Judging from the beautiful houses
and expensive public buildings which we
see.'
1T hardly seems possible that within
ten or fifteen years a wild barren place
could be changed to such a charming
CITY," said
~ cannot comprehend it," said Stella
''In the old world some of the cities we
visited were some of them thousands OF
years old and yet we did not see such evil
dence of wealth and culture as we find in
the west"
''This is an elegant building What is
it?' ! asked, pausing until Melvorne and
Lady Irving came up.
That is the opera house built for enjoy
ment by the people," he said
II wonder if there will be anything TO
see tonight" asked Lady Irving.
''We can inquire. see the door is open
Some one must be here" | said, and
stepped inside. An old man was inside,
dusting and arranging things.
Sir" asked, twill there be any kind
of an entertainment here this EVENING"
Yes, sir,' said the old man, 'our own
people give the Spy of the Rebellion here
tonight
When / made my report it was agreed
that we should see what home talent

returned to our hotel and had most sub
