The Kind OF Man Women Like.

Probably the best thing that was
ever written on the interesting ques-
tion of what women like in men is
summed up in the idea that women
like a man who can be strong as lion
when trouble comes and yet if one is
nervous and tired can button up a
shoe with an amount of consideration
that is a mental and physical bracer-
up. They like a man who likes them.
who doesn't scorn their opinions, who
believes in their good taste, who has
confidence in them and wit enough to
realize that when one of the fairer sex
is slightly stubborn persuasion is more
powerful than ALT arguments in the
world.-Detroit Free Press.

One OF the most cruel things which wicked
men can do is to sell strong drink to ignor-
ant heather savages. Thousands of barrels
OF strong drink are sent from Europe and
America to Africa to poison the benighted
Africans and OF late strong drink has been
sold in Alaska to the Indians, and has pro-
duced most serious results. The Government
has prohibited such sale, and now and then
II man gets what he deserves. Stephen Mer-
ritt, OF New York, who visited Alaska, says
he saw q man sent to prison tor nine months
for selling bottle of whisky.
He was fireman on the ship in which Mr.
Merritt sailed, and when he went on shore In
Alaska he took a bottle of whisky which cost
him dollar, thinking to make something by
selling il for a larger amount. An Indian
woman bought the whisky and paid him two
dollars, so he made u dollar but he violated
United States law, and soon found that he
was tout OF job, and was landed in jail
for nine months. Mr.. Merritt and others
tried to persuade the officers to let him of
with a fine, so that he could keep his place
as fireman where he was needed, but they
refused and so he was sent TO jail. II every
man who sells whisky, either to the savage
or the civilized in Africa, America or Alas
ka, could be landed in jail for nine months.

pay them a salary and take care OF their
families at home, and make more money by
the operation than this sailor did selling a

family where the five months old
baby was suffering from some mysteri-
GUS trouble that baffied everybody.
He could live only few days, the doctor
said, if something was not done. He
could keep nothing on his stomach, and
was slowly starving to death. The
nurse found distracted mother and a
pinched and moaning baby. His flesh
was blue, and there was a settled look
of anguish on his face.

silk and laces of his costly crib and
found just what she expected. Dress

you have dressed your baby from the

always had the best of everything for
him, answered the mother "Well,
it's no wonder he is sick. He hasn't
enough on to keep a fly warm in
July" The nurse called for the thick
est blanket in the house and the hot
water bag, and sent the astonished
mother downtown for the warmest
flannel wrappers, however ugly they
might be. The result was that in
few days the child was taking his food
perfectly, and was thriving as well as
could be desired. Babyhood.

nTom TiddIer,s Gronnd. :,

Among the landed properties
brought to the hammer within the past
few days was Elmswood, in Hertford-
shire. In small house, now demol-
ished, on this estate, lived for many
years James Lucas, "the Hertford-
shire Hermit, whom Charles Dickens
made the subject of one of his Christ
mas stories, "Tom Tiddler's Ground.
He was well educated man who
inherited the estate of his father, a
prosperous West India merchant
His eccentricities are summarized in

raphy," which says he refused to adj
ministers his parents wills, deferred
for three months when the sepulture
was enforoed) the interment of his
mother and barricaded his house of
Elmswood, in the kitchen of which he
took up his abode. He excluded
furniture, ablured washing, slept on q
bed of cinders and clothed himself in
loose blanket. His skin grew
grained with dirt, and his dark hair
long and matted.
His dietary, besides bread and pen
ny buns, consisted of cheese, red her
rings and gin, and he protected his
food from rats by hanging it in n bas-
ket from the roof. Lucas enjoyed the
society of tramps, always putting to
them a series of questions, and re-
warding satisfactory answers with cop
pers and glass of gin. He thus at
tracted all the vagabonds in the king
dom, and had to protect himself by re-
tanning two armed watchmen, who
lived in hut opposite the formidable
iron grille at which he received visi-
tors. These included Lord Lytton,
Sir Arthur Helps, John Forster and
Charles Dickens. This eccentric per-
son died of apoplexy in 1874, ami was
buried in Hackney churchyard. Lon

Much complaint is made of the dam.
age done TO wool by marking with tar
or paint which will not wash of. The
following recipe is recommended as
one which will resist the weather and
at the same time can be readily re-
moved with soap and warm water:
Take lampblack or Spanish red, and
mix with strong vinegar; mix it well
to the thickness of paint The sheep
should be marked on some part of the

mails rubbing together. BY employ

wool being deprecated in value, as it

Some mackernl tails and bacon rinds,
A table without leaves or legs,
One chair and half dozen pegs,

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
THE KITCHEN OF A FARMHOUSE.

THE KITCHEN OF A FARMHOUSE.
The kitchen of the farmhouse should
have the best attention in the laying
out of plan for building. To slight

kitchen fit and then build the house.

LEATHER SCRAPS FOR GRAPEv1NEs.

Any kind of tanned leather, whether
in the form of q scrap or otherwise,
decays very slowly in the soil and the
best way to use it is as mulch about
your grape vines. If spread over the
surface to the depth of two or three
inches it will keep the soil underneath
moist and cool, and at the same time
prevent the weeds from growing. As
the leather decays the fertilizing ma
terial in it will be carried down to the
roots by rain, and nothing will be lost
by using such coarse scraps as top
dressing for plants. If spread over
your garden and plowed in the
leather will decay somewhat more
rapidly than when left on the surface,
but in hoeing and wedding of your
plants the large scraps are likely to
become somewhat troublesome. New

INCREASE OF DISEASE IN FRANCE.

A well-known authority at Paris on
nervous and mental diseases, NJ Charles
Fere, who is q specialist in this direction,
says, that these diseases are frightfully ON
the increase In France. According TO the
Paris correspondent of the Chicago Weekly
Dispatch, he thinks this is due to the In
crease OF beer, drinking absinthe, and drink
ing at bars. He says there was hardly such
thing as q bar twenty years ago, and that
one sees them now all over the town and
always crowded. He notes as come ted
with this alcoholic consumption, the in
crease OF spine and brain diseases in young
children. He also attributes to drink and
drunkenness the tendency to race deteriora-
ton and depopulation. He notes the fact,
that children of drunken parents are at the
lime OF birth less developed than those OF
sober parents, and that there are possible
arrests Of development in many directions.
He says; at never can be repeated often
enough, that alcoholic drinks are now the
great enemy OF the races which do not alb
stain from them, and that il tho Aryans 20
on tippling as they do, they must finally give
way to Jews, Arabs and Chinese"

sumers of alcohol in all lands.-National

CHAPLAIN M'cABE on BEER AND BREAD.
In recent issue you say, Anarchists
want to get bread by force, but they seem
willing to pay for beer" Yes, and how
much do they pay? The Anarchists are only
"a very small wing of the laboring classes Of
our country. 1t is hardly worth while to
fini out how much they pay for beer and
whisky, but the millions OF working people
pay over $3.50, 900, 900 every year for that
which is not bread. Why not remind them
OF this fact? They are the main support Of
the colossal rum traffic which boasts OF
drawing into its Golfers 5000, 900, 900 an
nually.
The laboring people of the country spend
more for whisky and beer than the entire
banking capital OF the Nation. Ifthey would
save what they spend in this way and start
banks they could soon have 10, 900 banks with
S2,250, 900 900 capital. Don't get the figures
wrong. Ill write it out, so there will be no
mistake. In three years, by saving what
they pour down their throats, they could
have banks running in their interest with an
aggregate capital of two thousand two hum
dred and flty millions of dollars, leaving
net profit of at least one hundred millions a
year to be divided among them. Put this at

A Brilliant Young PIaniste OF staunton
the Mozart Musicale Attraction.

The Mozart musicale last evening was
a delightful entertainment. The audience,
though not more than an average one, was
particularly attractive in appearance on
account of the number OF white costumes
and pretty summer gowns worn by Ialr
women.
The leading attraction was the appear
ance Of Miss Annie " Walker. brilliant
young pianiste of the Conservatory OF
Music. Baltimore.
Miss Walker is from Stanton, Va.
and besides the rare genius with when
she has been generously endowed, she
possesses winning grace and fairness
of face that won the sympathy of the
audience from her first appearance.
She interpreted Rubenstein. List, and
Chopin last evening with equal ease and
confidence, giving to each an artists touch
and conception.
Miss Walker was frequently applauded,
and acknowledged the compliments paid
her genius with modest smile and bow.
The balance of the programme was most
acceptably filled in by Mir. Thomas >.
Baker, baritone, of Baltimore, and the
Perry brothers. clever instrumentalists
from New York who made delightful
music from bells, glass tumblers and
other devices.
Mr. and Mrs. Macy, of New York, with

Elizabeth Collgan, a mddle-aged white
woman, died rather suddenly at the
Jail about $50 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. she was committed from tie Aim
house last Monday, a commission of
lunacy having pronounced her insane.
The woman was seriously I'll when re-
ceived at the prison, but ii was thought
yesterday that she was recovering.
Coroner Taylor held an inquest over
the remains of the woman, and decided
that death was due to natural causes.
and that no blame was attached to those
in charge Of the jail. DR.. Gordon. the
Jail physician. being himself absent from
the city. sent in a protest through his
representative, Dr. Kiser. against the
action Of the Coroner in holding an
inquest in such cases, upon the ground
that 1t would be damaging to his repu-
tation as physician in charge of the
Jail. DR.. Taylor claimed, on the other
hand. that the law required him to hold
the inquest. and he had to comply with
the law on the subject.
