Mrs. Kate Ghoate, In Honor Of WHO'S
Housewarming Whittier Wrote Verses.
Surely few housewarmings--and q
housewarming is one of the most men,
orable and significant of domestic cele-
brations-are likely to be remembered
with more satisfaction and pride than
that which attended the first occupancy
Of the dwelling of Mrs. Kate Chcate Of
Amesbury.
She was the poet Whittier's washer.
woman, and when by persistent indus
try she had earned q home for herself
and her family he was one Of the FORE
most among the neighbors and friends
who organized the festivities and height
ened the delight Of their hostess by leav-
ing substantial tokens Of their regard,
including a complete set Of furniture
FOR the new parlor. a
Mr.. Whittier was present among the
guests and made the speech Of congrat-
u~lation, concluding 1t with the recita-
ton of a poem which he modestly de-
scribed as a piece Of machine poetry in
trusted to him for the occasion. 1t was
his own, of course. and it Is given in
full in his Life and Letters, - recently
published. The last three verses are A.
follows:
Thanks, then, to Kate ChoateI
Let the idle take note
What their fingers were made for.
She, cheerful and jolly,
Worked on late and early
And b~ought-what she paid for.
Never vainly repining
Nor begging nor whining.
The morning star twinkles
On no heart that's lighter
As she makes the world whittier
And smooths out its wrinkles.
30 long life to Katel
May her heirs have to wait
Till they're gray in attendance.
And the datiron press ON.
Still teaching its lesson
OF brave independence.
Nh. Whittier's early poems accorded,
in 'Songs Of Labor" due poetic hon
ors to the professions Of drover, shoe
maker, shipbuilder, farmer and fisher
man. 1t is pleasant to find him also
gracefully recognizing the worth of a
profession no less useful and honorable,
but less often honored. Long life to
Kate. too. he has doubtless secured,
in transferring her f1atiron and all
from the steamy realm of the kitchen to
the more romantic atmosphere Of verse.

SWARMING WITH MURDER.

Frfgltful Condition of India Previous
+" '"%: { to the sepoy Mutiny.
Up to The breaking out of the Sc
poy:rebellion in India there were
noaless -than-226- different religious
creeds in~that country, each having
a numerous following. There were
no less than thirty-two grades of
caste, and the lines were so rigidly
drawn, that it was almost impossible
for one. to travel or do business.
Even in the ranks Of the troops main
tanned by the East India company
everything went by caste, says the
ST. Louis Star-Sayings. If a soldier
OF second caste walked neal enough
to the campfire of a soldier of the
first caste to east his shadow across
it, the fire had to be put out and re-
built on another spot.
Out Of a regiment numbering 800
men not more than 100 could use
the same vessels for carrying water
for cooking food. Up to the same
date it was estimated by English sta
tisticlans that there were in India
200, 900 profes sional thugs, 175, 900
professional strangers who used the
hands alone, 100, 900 professional
prisoners and at. least 25O, 900 men
who made theft, robbery and murder
by violence their daily and only avo-
cation. All but the latter class tray
eled about as religious devotees and
sheltered themselves behind the
mantle of faith" India was in
tensely religious and yet each and
every creed was declared by all
others to be a fraud and a sham.
Every ruler, ever down to the head
man of the village, had arbitrary
powers, but SO long as murder and
robbery 9 perpetrated in the
name of religion the authorities
da ed not interfere. The British
were in India for money. Previous
to the mutiny they were careful not
to Interfere with caste or creed. If

200 murders in a month in his terri
tory not even al official inquiry was
set on foot. AT Nagpoor, 500 miles
east of Bombay, the number of deaths
at the hands Of thugs, strangers,
prisoners and professional robbers
during the twelve months preceding
the outbreak was 1854, and yet not
a single criminal was brought to
justice.

KING
HIS REIGN is OVER AT LAST.
Medical Science Drives Him from His
Throne-A Medicine Discovered
that Rheumatism Can Not Re-
sist-A Boon for Sufferers.

From the ST. Louis. Mo, Chronicle.
The effect Of using DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for rheumatism was brought to Light
lately by a Chronicle reporter who inter-
viewed John Ferguson of 7039 South Broad
way, st. Louis, who had been q sufferer
with this incapacitating disease.
.sThose pills. he said, s'have proved OF
great benefit not only to me but to my wife.
Strange to say we both suffered from the
same ailment, although my wife's condl-
tion was much worse than mine. Neither
of us could sleep at night; we had sharp,
shooting pains in our arms, sides and limbs,
and q continual soreness all over the body.
What we suffered from was nothing more
or less than rheumatism. AT times my
wife had to crawl up stairs on her hands
and knees, and as for me, would at night
twitch and jerk despite my utmost efforts
to control myself. We suffered the torture
of the ahmed.
"But in three weeks the pain began to
leave us. My case not being as severe as
nv wife's | soon got we'll, but it took nearly
three months before Mrs. Ferguson could
say she was entirely free from rheumatic
pains. OF course [ recommend DR.. Will

Mr.. Ferguson's words are Endorsed by L.
a.. Campbell, an iron worker living on
Chouteau avenue. He too had been afflicted
with rheumatism contracted from working
in a damp foundry. He said: "One day |

me to remain in bed for at least several

determined to try them. The effects were
nothing short of marvellous. They made
me well, and as a preventive take them
regularly. They're the best medicine I
know of, and as such my friends hear me
speak of them"

ANTI-TOYINE FOR DIPTHERIA.

Evidence Of the efficacy Of anti-tox-
inc as a specific for diphtheria con-
tinues to accumulate. and physicians
who have used the new remedy are
coming to admit that ii is curative
agent of great value.
One man connected with the health
department of the city Of Chicago adj
ministered anti-toXine to 112 persons
during October, twenty-five Of them
being treated to immunizing injections
to prevent their taking the disease
from other members of their families
who were afflicted with it. Sixteen Of
the ninety patients who had genuine
diphtheria are now convalscent, and of
the remaining seventy-four all but four
fully recovered.
-Four deaths in Seventy-four show a
death rate of but "a per cent, while if
the convalescents are included the
death rate is but A per cent. These
figures are furnished by the health
commissioner of Chicago as proof Of
thc tliCdty VI dHIl-lOAiue, anu lhcs
seems to be conclusive evidence. When
the death rate Of "A per cent in cases
where anti-toxine is used is compared
with the death rate OF 60 per cent
which prevailed in Chicago during the
early days of September before the
specific was employed to any extent, it
seems to be apparent that every physi-
clan should use this great life-saving
agent
1t is certain that one of the diseases
which formerly caused thousands
upon thousands Of deaths every year
has lost most of its terrors because of
the discovery of the wonderful specific
remedy.
