1t Is reported that Senator Gray will
champion the effort of President Cleve-
land to place Queen Lii on the throne
in Honolulu, on the ground that wa
should undo the wrong that was dono
her by tho U. $. forces under tho Har
rlson administration. He will hardly
be able to gain more credit for this de-
fence than he did in his advocacy of
cheap dinner kettles for worlimen.
Good dinners and freedom are more
popular than Cheap kettles or the
enthronement OF Cheap queens BE
careful. Senator, OF you will ruin your
reputation as a pAtIdulhrop.st and pa

AN AN7TDOTE TO CARE.

Think that the grass upon thy grave is green;
Think that thou seest thine own empty chair;
The empty garments thou vast won't to
wear;
The empty room where long thy haunt hath
been.
Think that the lane, the meadow, and the
wood,
And mountain summit feel thy feet no more,
Nor tho IND thoroughfare, nor sounding
sh,re;
All mere blank space where thou thyselfhath
stood.
Amid this thought-created silence say
TO thy stripped soul, what an l now, and
where?
Then turn and face the petty, narrowing care
Which has been gnawing thee for many q
day,
And it will die as dies wailing broeze
Lost in the solemn roar of bounding seas.

At the age of saventy-nine Verdi,
the brave old composer, has prepared
his opera of "Falstaff,' to be per-
formed this holiday time at La Scala,
the great opera house in Milan.
While he was composing the music
for this opera Verdi rose at five
o'clock in the morning and worked
six to seven hours a day, and some
times more. The opera is full OF
brightness and humor, and this has
reacted upon the aged musician so
effectually that during all the time
he was composing it he bubbled over
with health and animal spirit, like
boy. Soon all the world will know
whether a man seventy-nine years
old, even great genius, can write an
opera equal to the work OF his best
DAYS.

For Nervous People,

The New York Herald's European
edition publishes in its weekly article,
"What the Doctors Say" two facts
likely to make a stir in the medical
world.
The first is an explanation of a new
treatment for nervous disease by
injecting beneath the skin solution
of phosphate of soda, which in its
way is not modified by passing
through the digestive tract but is
taken up in it's original form and
acts directly on the nervous system,
a portion Of the organism for which
it has the greatest affinity. Albert
Robin uses solution of five grammes
of phosphate of soda in 100 grammes
of sterilized distilled water.
The second fact is the researches of
an English physician, Mr.. Mapother,
on the influence if food on badness.
Since hair contains not less than
per cent of sulphur, and when gray
20 per cent of silica and 10 per cent
Of iron and manganese, he claims
that two of the forms of food that
nearly every one takes each day
beef and milk-have by their
chemical composition the effect of
annihilating these primordial ele-
ments of hair and withering it at
the roots.
Mr.. Mapother thinks that different
albumenoid foods, starchy substances,
particularly dark colored oats,
which contain - per cent of silica,
have a powerful effect in making
hair grow. The races of men
that have the finest hair are usually
those living on starchy substances
and vegetables.

John Osborne, who seized the exec

Osborne filed the oath with the Sec

p eople in Sardinia Who Konw Nothing of
Modern Life and Culture.
Not long ago the inhabitants of
the town of Salti, in Sardinia
petitioned the Austrian government
for a separate municipal existence,
it being part of Buddesso,. which is
forty miles away. A commission was
sent to make inquiries, and this
remarkable report was made:
"The people of Salti have no town
council, no police, no clergyman, no
phi ysician. The town possesses no
postoffice, no church or chapel, no
school, no registers Office. On the
maps of the kingdom, although it
contains 1900 inhabitants, it is not
marked. Yet the state receives
taxes from the people but sends no
tax collector to receive them. The
taxpayers journey sixty kilometers
once in every eight weeks to pay
taxes. Once a year in May all the
children born during the year are
taken to Buddesso and there baptized.
The dead are buried in the most
primitive manner. and without any
trace of religious rites. Marriages
are conducted on the same system,
without any formality or ceremony,
and are declared later, sometimes
long after they have been blessed
with issue. Vaccination and medi-
cines are only known from hearsay.
The children grow up without school
ing or instruction OF any kind"

Six fine steamers will be built on
the Clyde for the Chesapeke and
Ohio Steamship company. A passen-
ger line from Newport News and
Norfolk to Europe would place before
the travelling public one of the most
delightful of trips, particularly in

that winter tourists from the north
who were not in great haste would
preferably make the journey to the
balmy atmosphere Of Old Point

The next government land to be
opened will be the Cherokee outlet
strip, 100000 acres. The next
boomers cane rush after that will be
for the Yankton reservation in South
Dakota, where 100000 acres will in
course of time be opened. The
commissioners that have been
endeavoring to get the Yankton
Sioux to sign the agreement giving
up their reservation to settlement
report that they have at length
obtained the necessary number of
signatures from the Indians.

Throat diseases are produced by
breathing through the mouth. A
specialist in this kind of ailments
writes that you may force yourself to
breathe through the nostrils by tying
a handkerchief or bandage tight
under the chin and wearing it at
night. But perhaps the best way to
stop breathing through the mouth is
to stop it. 1t is a deadly habit.
Germs of disease and decay are taken
into the system by mouth breathing
when by drawing the air through
the nostrils they would be stopped at
the outset. Worst of all, the mouth
breathers snore.

hair, probably, of any woman in the
world, white or black. She lives half
a mile beyond the northern limits Of

about sixty years old. Her hair she
wears in three plaits. The side

inches on the floor and measures
eight feet in length. 1t isa silver

of the district court when peace re-
