THE ho-ilVa PASSION

She had suffered with the phthisis and ha3
taken tons of physic,
And whole barrelfuls of bitters. and whole
loads of nauseous pills
She'd been troubled with miasma and choked
up with the asthma
And been shaken for month or two with
ague and with chills.
She had had the yellow fever, OF which moth
ing could relieve her,
And the rheumatism famed her so she could
not go about,
And she groaned with tonsllstls and 0ne most
acute bronchitis
AND she suffered endless fortunes from
twihges of the govt
She had tried old school physicians, Christian
scientists, caagicians,
Indian doctars electricians and magnetic
healers all,
And drank tons Of nasty liquor, but grew ever
sick and sicker,
And they got the undertaken to prepare her
shroud and pail.
Then the great cheap sale Of laces advertised
in various places
Caught her feverish eye one morning, ano
she leaped up sound and well.
She shook off death s stifening rigor, and with
most emphatic vigor
She grasped her husbands pocketbook and
rushed down town pellmell.

Something About the Family of the Great
Singer.

When Nine. Nordica was simply Lillian
Norton, her cousin "Pinkie" Norton,
from tn same Maine village where both
girls passed theirschildhood, was counted
by far the more attractive of the two
girls, and the better singer. They both
went to Boston to study, and there
f" Pinkie's" teachers prophesied for her
greater lyrical triumphs than Lillian
could ever earn. But Lillian did not be-
grudge long continued application, and
"Pinkie" did; and while Nine. Nordica
(born Norton) is grand opera star.
"Pinkie"is simply Mrs. Bracket, the wife
of an organist, and only sings in church
and now and then to please her neigh
bors. There is another song bird in the
family, the beautiful young daughter of
Nine. Nordica's sister, Miss Walker of
Roxbury, Mass. Miss Walker is brill
iantly handsome girl of 20 or less, rehec-
ing in her dress and manner her long So
journ 10 Paris, where she studied under
leading teachers. She Is now at her
mothers home, pursuing her vocal cult.

teacher; and the prophets who see in her
second and much younger edition of
her renowned aunt, confidently expect
that the operate world will some day
hear from Mile. Norton Walker.

The matter is now pending in the
Senate, and it will be matter of great
interest to those who have read the re-

official documents, what step may now
be taken to force upon Spain sense OF

The Mora case has now been before our
government and that of Spain for nearly
a quater of century. Over 500. 600 has
been expended upon it and whole
library full of documents written on it.
AS Mr.. Bayard several years ago de-
scribed Mr.. Antonio Mora, he is in ex-
treme old age, enfeehled in health and
depressed in fortune.
AS the commi ttee on Foreign Relations
reported to the Fifty-thlrd Congress,
he has been despoiled of his property, re-
duced from aff1uence to poverty, to re-
main a victim of an injustice.alike appall-

BoYIsH IDEAS OF GREATNESS.


Those with Long Memories VIII Confess
to Like Impressions.
Chow boyish impressions cling to one!"
said doctor yesterday. when you told
me who that old gentlsman was that just
passed, it brought to my mind the time
when I was q boy at Lewiston There was
q blast furnace there, aIfd it was mark
of distinction to be able to beconc familiar
enough with the engineer to have him ask
you to come inso tie engine room. Any
boy who had the honor was the envy OF all
the rest. I remember how We watched
that 300 horsepower engine, looking at ev-
cry part and noting even the name of the
maker.
1.-THE boys used to get together and dis
cuss which they Tpnld rather--be the pres
ident of the United States or the maker OF
what to us was7a wonderful piece OF ma
chinery. 1t was invariabiy decided that
the making Of an engine was the more
desirable honor. How we pictured the
man who was able to construct such
piece of mechanism! We thought the
whole world must be bowling down before
him.
'No; the man you pointed out was the
maker of that engine. AS soon as you
spoke his name saw the raised iron let
tiers standing out plainly before me. was
just thinking what treat we boys would
have thought we were getting if we could
have seen this man. A circus would have
been tbrewn in the shade by the presence
of such, as we thought, great man. But
the world widens as we grow older, and
the ideals of our boyhood days vanish into
such faint remembrances as 1 have just
been giving you. More is the pity. -

A REMARKABLE CASE.

Portland. Dec. 6. 1894.
Mr.. Editor-Seeing in your paper a cure
performed by DR.. Chase CT Cumbe1 land
street, and thinking it might be interesting
to some one in like condition as myself, l
thought would send you statement in re-
gard to my own case. Several years ago
was taken with "a severe CO Sc of nerovus
prostration, suffering only as those that
have such troubles can tell, severe pains in
the head, neck, back, fatuleLoe and ex-
IRENE mental depression. For twelve years
lived in this condition, rarely ever being
able to go out of doris. / was Influenced by
some friends who had been benefited by DR..
Chase to try him. took no medicine, but
under his treatment gradually improved, SO
that at the end of three months l could get
out little every day. continued to i'm
been so ever since ! thought this might
influence some one to try him and get
assistance as did. Please publish this.
Yours respectfully,
