one Fine Morning.

1t was not quite so white world as
showed itself one August morning years
ago. The sun had risen its finest, and the
tourist crowd had gone back to its beds in
the big hotel just off the Kuhn and left it
to three well wrapped mortals too en-
thralled to feel that they could ever sleep
again. The green of the mountain rose
like an island from wide sea of billowy,
silky, white clouds. Only the distant
mountain peaks companioned it, and the
sky made blue dome over all
After a time clear peals of heavy bells
came up through the fieecy substance that
hid church and village, and we could hear
the tinkle of thee and goat bells as herds
and fiocks went to the pastures
Then as the sun rose higher there were
riffs in the clouds, and hamlets, forests and
blue lakes appeared and disappeared as the
sea shifted its pillows The riffs opened
wider and wider as the hours went on, til,
it was all open, and the lake of the four
forest cantons lay clear far below, with the
Bernese Alps piling up their SHOWS and
glaciers and precipices on the farther side,
and lakelets and towns and farms and
miles of pastoral Switzerland could be
studied as on a map.
The gravity railways have since that day
brought higher and better situated noun
tain tops within the reach of the three
travellers, and they are content to sail UP
Laka Lucerne without stopping, but with
feeling that the unsurpassed morning fol-
them was that one when the Rigi did its
best.--Newport News.

Literary Chances In New York.

The actual chances for literary success
in New York are in no respect different
from those which any greater city pre-
sents over those of smaller community
II a literary man or woman can go to
New York with certainty offered in the
way of a fairly paying position, then ]
say, by all means go, and If he has any
talent in him it will come out and win
quick success. But if he has only ordi-
nary gifts then let him stay where he is,
even with certainty offered him New
York holds out nothing to such man
except poor livelihood. Or, if writer
has established fair reputation, is
known by editors and publishers through
letters, and he feels that there is some
thing in him which only the activity of
great city will bring out, then let him
go to busy Gotham.
But let him be careful that he does not
confuse ambition with talent. New
York is full Of ambitious writers, and
they will always remain ambitious, al
ways reaching out to eat the literary oats
which hang suspended just little out
of their reach. Ambition is a splendid
quality, but the talent must be there to
back it up. And the latter is what is
lacking in SO many Of the ambitious lit
erary spirits in New York today. It is
all ambition. .-E. w. Box in Ladies'

nelI WIN ne ON 4 Cometl

What do you think of the idea of hell,
the future abode Of the wicked, being
situated in the nucleus of some gigantic
comet? This opinion, odd as it may seem
to those who have given comets and the
future state of the dead but little atten-
ton, has been entertained by many really
eminent scientists and philosophers,
among them the learned DR.. Winston,
the friend and sometime adviser of the
great Sir Isaac Newton.
In answer to the inquiries of friend,
who wrote to ask the doctor for some
tangible proof on the subject, the follow
ing unique theories were advanced: t.Ac-
cording to my calculations and deduc-
tons, this theory which you rightly say
must belong to me and me alone, does
locate hell, the awful prison house of the
damned, in the fiery nucleus of some
perhaps yet undiscoyere0 comet of un-
thinkable size.

A Photographic Diary.

OF the many uses to which photography
has been put probably that of using it as a
means of forming an illustrated diary is
the most novel 1t is said that a certain
millionaire is always accompanied by a
quiet looking man who carries a small,
square case and hovers around in seem
ingly suspicious way. But he is a most
important individual and receives a hand
some salary for his services. It is his duty
to take series of instantaneous photo
graphs, showing how his employer has
passed the day. There is no posing or any
thing Of the sort and the photographer has
to use his own judgment in choosing which
moments to represent.
Weneed hardly point out what possibili-
ties this opens up, and really most inter
esting and instructive history of mans
life could thus be formed. 1t is true not
all of us can afford to employ a photog-
rapher to take us about adozen times a
day, but IL we ourselves carried always a
hand camera and shot of at things and
places Of interest which we came across In
every day life, we could make an interest
ing record which in years to come would
be of value il only to oremind us more vivid.

rhe ,rechanism q an oyster.

Every oyster has mouth, heart, a liver.
stomach, besides many curiously devised
little intestines and other organs-neces-
sary organs, such as would be handy to
living, moving, intelligent creature. The
mouth is at the end of the shell, near the
hinge and adjoining the toothed portion OF
the oysters pearly covering. This tiny
little apology. of mouth isoval in shape,
and although hardly visible to one unused
to making such anatomical examinations
can be easily discovered by gently pushing
bodkin or a piece of blunt, smooth wire
along the surface Of the locality mentioned.
When the mouth is at last located you
can thrust your instrument through be-
tween the delicate lips and considerable
distance toward the stomach without caus-
ing the oyster the least pain whatever
From this mouth there is of course a
miniature canal leading to the stomach.
Food passes from this canal to the stomach,
and from the latter organ into the intes-
tines just as readily as though the little
bivalve were as large as an elephant or a
Thinoceros.
| Remove the shell (this operation is rather
rough on the oyster, but can be done in a
comparatively painless manner by an ex-
pert) and you will see the crescent, which
lies just over the so called heart. This half
moon space is the oysters pericardium
Within is the true heart, the pulsations of
which can be readily seen without the aid
of glass. The heart is very humanlike,
made of two parts, one of which receives
| the blood from the giils through network
of real blood vessels; the other portion con-
| tracts and drives the blood out through the
body. The other organs of an oysters anat
omy are all in the proper places and per
forming their several functions.-St. Louis

Some people begrudge the little money
that an ALLcoCK's PoRoUs PLASTER costs,
and then when they are racked with pain
from lame back, or from the soreness
arising from cold, they will spend any
amount of money to relieve the pain. II
they only had one of these world-renowned
plasters on hand, they would be saved a
vast amount of suffering and be consider
ably richer. At the first sign of stiffness
of the joints apply one of these plasters
without any delay. The soreness will be
greatly relieved at once and soon disappear

THE SUGAR INVESTIGATION.
Revelations Which Make Things Look
Dark for the Democracy.

Revelations Which Make Things Look
Dark for the Democracy.
The report of the sugar trust inves-
tigating committees represents the
happening of the expected. There was
never any reason to look Tor differ
ent result, because there was never
any reason to suppose that the COM
mittee would make an earnest and
thorough attempt to obtain the facts
A great deal of testimony has been
taken, but It is mostly of the kind that
stops where the trail begins to be fresh.
The accused parties, and many not ac-
cused, were summoned one after an
other and their pleas Of not guilty ac-
cepted as conclusive proof in the case.
There is nothing to show that plain
clews were followed up in a capable
and resolute way, or that suspicious
circumstances were pushed to a def
mite and satisfactory explanation. The
methods employed to ascertain the
truth concerning alleged corrupt or
improper proceedings were calculated
to defeat that purpose by providing
ample opportunity for concealment.
AS usual in such Investigations, the
line of action was so adjusted as to in
troduce an abundance of irrelevant
matter and to keep the essential points
out Of sight. There is no doubt in the
public mind as to the fact that for
tunes were made by spectators upon
advance information furnished by
democratic senators, and that certain
of those senators were large gamers in
the matter; but the committee was
not looking for such information, and
so did not find it.
There are some things of damaging
kind in the report, however, which
could not be suppressed 1t is stated,
for instance, that Secretary Carlisle
drafted a sugar schedule which was
favorable to the trust, and that the
schedule finally agreed upon was OF
the same character. In other words,
it appears that the administration, as
represented by Mr.. Carlisle, took
special interest in the sugar matter,
and that its recommendations were in
perfect accord with the wishes of the
trust. This does not legally prove that
the trust was given the protection and
advantage that it desired. or demand
ed, in return for its large contribution
J to the democratic campaign fund Of
| 1892; but certainly the coincidence
raises a strong presumption to that
effect. If there was not bargain Of
} that kind, then the democratic sena
tors, with the approval, if not at the
instance of the administration, made
