Mrs. Millions Ride

When Mrs. Million goes to ride she travels
forth in state,
Her horses, full of fire and pride, go pranc-
ing from the gate;
But all the beauties Of the day she views
with languid eyes,
Her flesh in weakness wastes away, her voice
is but a sigh.
For Mrs. Million is in an advanced
stage of catarrh, and all the luxuries
that wealth can buy fail to give her
comfort. She envies her rosy waiting
maid, and would give all her riches for
that young woman's pure breath and
blooming health. Now, if some true
and disinterested friend would advise
Mrs. Million of the wonderful merits OF
DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, she would
learn that her case is not past help.
$500 reward is offered by the manufac.
turers for a case of catarrh in the land
which they cannot cure.

BriRandage in Jail.

To read of brigandage in Italy makes
one doubt if this can be the Nineteenth
century. Here is country, one of the
Oldest seats of European civilization,
where the first requisite of stable gov
eminent, security of life and property,
is wanting. The country groans under
the financial burden Of an army and
navy big enough for vast empire, and
yet the troops appear to be SO busy look
ing for an invader on the northern from
tier that they cannot suppress the rob.
bers and murders of the interior. The
authorities should reduce the army and
hire a police force.-Toronto Globe.

Disappearance of a Paris Character.

The old woman with two wooden legs
who used to occupy a seat at the corner
Of the Rue de la Paix and the Boulevard
des Capucines, where she was as well
known and considered as much Of fix
ture as the opera house or the Grand
hotel, has vanished from her accustomed
post and is said to be dying. She was
not exactly beggar, for she never soic-
tied aims and always had some small
wares, chiefly key rings and dog chains,
for sale.
Her presence at that spot dates back
for nearly fifty years. She was young
woman when she came to establish her
self there. Everybody knew her by
sight and nobody knew anything about
her. In that remarkable book, 1.-THE
Englishman in Paris" she is mentioned
as having been at one time protege Of
Napoleon III, and as having offered to
lend him money when he was Prince
Louis Bonaparte merely and was under.
stood to be in financial difficulties. One
Of the newspapers of Paris published an
anecdote respecting her some years ago.
She forthwith sued the offending jour
nal and obtained not only a contradic
ton Of the story (which was indeed q
sheer fabrication and an abominablt
one), but certain amount of damages
as well.-Paris Cor. Philadelphia Tele

Averting a Plague of Mice.

A recent interesting instance of what
science can do against apparently over
whelming odds occurred in the plains of
Thessaly. The crops of that district of
Greece were threatened with entire de-
struction by swarms of field mice.
Every effort at destroying them proved
inefficient, and finally Pasteur was ap-
pealed to. He referred his correspondent
to Loeffier, whose recent researches
among disease microbes have made him
famous, and the Athenian government
finally invited Loeffler to Athens, where,
after some experimentation, he deter
mined upon line of procedure.
Pieces of bread were prepared, each of
which contained numbers of a certain
micro-organism known to be extremely
deadly to mice, producing in them dis
ease much like typhoid fever. The same
microbes, if eaten by man or by domes-
tic animals are absolutely harmless.
This bait was placed freely within reach
Of the wild mice, and at the same time
other mice inoculated with the bacilli
were turned loose, that their dead bodies
might be eaten by the others.
In this way the disease was quickly
distributed. Nine days after the bait
ing the mice had entirely ceased to show
themselves and further injury to the
crops was averted. Other districts were
subsequently treated by the same meth.
cd and reported similar results.-Youth's
COMPANION.

Among the bushelmen employed by a
large Market street clothing firm there is
one who is wonder in the repairing branch
of the business. An example Of his skill
with the needle was furnished recently
which astonished even those familiar with
his work. A gentleman came into the
place with dress coat, almost new in ap-
pearance, but which the moths had gotten
into and Quilted hole as large as a silver
quarter in the back. Since there was not
another coat in the place which would fit
the owner, and he was extremely anxious
to have il by evening, it was sent to the
workrooms and a consultation held.
The workman in question asserted that
he could mend the place in way to defy
detection, and he was told to 90 ahead.
First cutting a piece Of cloth to fit the
hole he went to a black haired young
woman, and by her permission pulled sew.
eral hairs from her head. With these he
stitched the edges Of the patch, and when
the work was done not salesman in the
establishment could detect the mend. The
customer was so much pleased that he
sent the workman a neat present.-Phila-
delphia Record.

Puget Sound aranaa

The Freeman's Farmer says that one
Of Its representatives called upon H. A.
March, of Fidalgo, the other day, and
among other things of interest was
shown large grape vine trained up on
his woodshed, which was fairly loaded
with large purple clusters Of fruit.
This goes to show that grapes can be
grown on Puget Sound, and If proper
attention is paid as TO varieties and
care in cultivation, doubtless they can
be made profitable addition to it,
already long list of fruits. Mr.. James
Curry, Of South Anacortes, a veteran
nurseryman and fruit-grower, after 8
careful study Of the soil and climatic
conditions, reached the above conclu
sion, and last spring set out seventeen
varieties Of grape cuttings, all of which
have made vigorous growth, anC
promise to be the means of changinl
the opinions Of some Of the skeptical
neighbors.

Peter cooper,s Earthly Reward.

New Workers need not be reminded of
what they owe to good old Peter Cooper,
who began life in earnest when boy in
a hat factory, and who died lsmented
by the thousands whom his earnest, char
table life had blessed. 1t might be said
that Peter Cooper made his money solely
for the good he could do with it. At all
events he lived to great age and saw
the practical benefits that arose from his
well directed efforts. To have died know
ing that a whole city was in mourning
and that a great nation was sounding
his praises was in itself a reward for
money rightly spent and time consumed.

ST. LUKE's HOSPITAL
A New Executive Committee APP
pointed

pointed
AT an adjourned meeting of gentle
men interested i'm st. Luke's Hospital,
held in the reception room of the insti-
tuition on Wednesday evening, it was
determined to organize board of rep
resentative men on the Bay and
throughout the county, to cooperate
with the management In the admins
tration of its affairs. The list was only
partially formed, but it will be enlarged
and completed at the February meet
ing and duly announced.
The following executive committee
was appointed, which is to meet every
month, while the larger board will be
convened less frequently: Major Cole,
chairman; County Superintendent
Hit, secretary; +. G. Pettibone, treas
urer; Hugh Eldridge, Geo. f. Atkin-
son.
This institution is less than a year
old, but ii holds warm place in many
hearts, and has gained wide reputa-
ton on account of the excellent care
given to the sick and suffering.
As our readers are aware the hospital
was started last February by Rev. L..
w. Apologize, and has been conducted
by him at a personal outlay of much
time and money. Last September he
called to his assistance Mrs. +. f.
Miles, under whose efficient manage
ment the institution is now conducted.
Too much praise cannot be accorded to
the able staff of physicians to whose
skill much of the success Is due.
Mr.. Apologize has also in his Eas t.
ern trip created considerable interest in
the undertaking among those able to
render it some financial aid. 1t seems
therefore the proper time, now that the
hospital Is an assured success and
proved itself worthy of confidence, that
the citizens upon the Bay and through
out the county should cooperate with
the management ia building up char
ity upon which we can look with pride,
and where We can give loving minis
trations to the sick and dying.
Arrangements are being made to
suitably celebrate its first anniversary
about the middle of February.

He Cut the Rope.

The architect Viollet-le-Duc was one
day on the Schwarzenberg glacier, at a
height of about 1900 feet, accompanied
by Baptiste, the guide, who marched in
front. The two men were attached to
each other by rope, as is usual in AL
pine mountaineering.
The guide had passed over a crevasse,
but when NJ. Viollet-le-Duc attempted
to cross it he failed and fell into the
abyss. The guide tried to pull him out,
but instead he found himself gradually
descending.
The architect perceived that his COM
panion, if he persisted in the attempt to
save him, would surely share his fate,
and he asked if Baptiste had family.
"a wife and children" was the an
swer.
"Then," said viollet-le-Duc quietly,
81 shall cut the rope"
He did so and fell, but block of ice
thirty feet lower down stopped his de-
scent. When Baptiste saw this, and that
for time the danger was lessened, he
went in search of help and returned with
four stout peasants. Three hours after
ward Viollet-le-Duc was extricated.
In spite of his perilous position, the
ruling passion was strong with the art
list, for, although he was almost covered
with icicles from the dripping water, he
had contrived to make drawings of the
novel effects he was able to perceive

Auecdote of sherman,s Son.

A detachment of soldiers were told off
to take charge of young Tom NOW Fa-
ther) Sherman while crossing the pom
toon bridge across the Potomac when
the armies of the country were coming
to Washington to take part in the great
review there in 1866. He was then about
eight years old.
One of the men asked him if he ex-
pected to grow up as smart man as his
father, the general, and he promptly an
swered, Nor "WhyY" was the next
question. "Well," he replied with the
same readiness. "there are plenty other
men who have grown up, and why amt
they as smart as my father?"-Philadel-

Harrison on the Death of Hayes


WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-A special
meeting of the cabinet was held this
afternoon, at which the following ex-
ecutive order was drafted and adopted:

death of Rutherford B. Hayes, who was
president of the United States from March
4. 1877, to March 4, 1881. at his home in
Fremont, Ohio, at II p. m. yesterday, is
an event the announcement of which will
be received with very general and very
sincere sorrow. His public services eX-
tended over many years and over a wide
range of official duty. He was patriotic
citizen, a lover of the flag and our free
institutions, an industrious and con-
scientious civil officer, a soldier Of dapu T.
sympathetic and helpful neighbor and
the honored head Of a happy Christian
home, He has steadily grown in public
esteem, and the impartial historian will
not fail to recognize the conscientiousness,
manliness and courage which so strongly
characterized his whole public career. As
an expression OF public sorrow it is
ordered that the executive mansion and
the executive departments at Washing
ton City be draped in mourning and the
flags thereon be placed at half-mast for a
period of thirty days, and that on the day
of the funeral all public business be sus-
pended and military and naval honorS
under the orders of the secretaries OF wal
and the navy be ordered on that day.
