Wornan's lnhurnanity to Man.

An Atchison wife has had a cruel
truth told her by heartless doctor.
He said her husband would not live
long unless he got some rest. Last
night, as she sat in an easy-chair and
watched him take off his coat on com
ing from the office, put on a bingham
and 60 to work cheerfully washing
potatoes for supper and pounding
steak, occasionally stopping to care
for the baby, her heart smote her.
She noticed that he looked thin
and careworn and that he brought
the bucket only half full OF water
from the well. She spoke to him kind
ly, and her heart smote her d second
time when he looked up surprised.
Was it true that in the rush and wor.
ry OF stirring the country up to politi
cal truths she had forgotten to be kind
to him? She kissed him tenderly
when he handed her cup of tea at
the table, and his eyes filled with
tears. 1t was so long since he had
heard a tender word. She praised
his biscuits; then he broke down and
| cried.
The result Of this tender little
scene was that this morning the
woman cancelled all lecture engage
ments and resigned from all commit
tees. She realized that since it
would not do to hire strong girl to
assist him with the heavy housework,
it would be better for her to stay at
home and aid him by tender sympa
thy and loving words. Oh, wives
take warning from this little tale,
Speak gently to your husbands ere
the cold sod closes over them. Praise
their coffee and biscuit A kind word
costs 30 little and never gets through
travelling .-Atchison Globe.

Framing a New Currency Bill.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 1.-THE Demo
cratic leaders of the House are devot-
ing themselves assidiously to framing
bill upon which they can agree, and
which can secure majority Of the
Senate, for the reorganization of the
currency. 1t is understood the de-
alterations are based upon the Jones
bill.
Jones has perfected a measure, but
adheres to his original determination
not to introduce it unless he can be
reasonably assured in advance Of it's
passage. He and the supporters OF
the bill are o-day trying to ascertain
just what support can be obtained,
and in doing this are to a certain
extent canvassing the Republican
side of the Senate as we'll as the Demo
cratic.

A San Francisco dispatch of the

here have received information re-
garding the derailment Of the train at
White Plainr, New, last evening, con-
vincing them that the wreck was
caused by the deliberate attempt Of
a miscreant. An iron rod was found
which had been placed beneath the
switch, keeping the rail out of place
and making a wreck certain.

The Color of Gold.

Most people suppose, says an as

experienced man can tell at a glance

taken directly from quartz. Why
this should be the case is one of the
mysteries of metallurgy, for the plac-
er gold comes from the Veins. The
Ural gold is the reddest found any
where.
Few people know the real color OF
gold, as it is seldom sc Ell unles, heay-

A Plain Statement of a Plain Case.
The proprietors of Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla have never made a claim con-
corning this great medicine which was
not backed up by absolute and indis-
putable proof. They claim that the
laboratory in which Hoods Sarsapa-
rila is prepared is the largest build
ing in the world devoted to the pro-
prietary medicine business. Is this
statement true? Look at the facts.
In Lowell, Mass, situated within a
few feet of the tracks of the great Bos
ton and Maine railroad system, in
plain view of thousands of travellers,
stands brick building five stories
high, sixty feet wide and four hun
dred feet long, and this entire build
ing is devoted to the business of
Hoods Sarsaparilla. Has any one
ever expressed doubt as to the real
ity of this great laboratory, or has
anyone who has been in Lowell ever
| contradicted a single statement that
has ever been made concerning it?
Has any traveller ever seen, anywhere
upon the face Of the earth, the equal
OF Hoods Sarsaparilla Laboratory?
No, it cannot be found. Then what
does this fact mean? Simply that the
business which has been built up by
the demand for Hoods Sarsaparilla is
OF immense proportions.
The proprietors of Hoods Sar sa-
par;lla claim that it has the largest
sales in the world. The truth of this
statement may be verified by any per-
son who will make fair inquiry Of
wholesale druggists all over the coun-
try.
Again, the proprletors of Hoods
Sarsaparilla claim that Hoods Sarsa-
parilla cures. Upon the truth Of this
claim depends the reason for the exis
tence Of the mammoth laboratory and
the reason for the immense and ever
increasing sales. Once more let us
examine the facts. Amy thoughtful
person who has given attention to
published testimonials must be con-
vinced of the superiority of those
published in behalf of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla. They are from living people,
who tell in their own words as nearly
as possible what Hoods Sarsa narilla
has done for them, Rased Upon solid
truth, freely given in earnest graft
tude, published without the embel-
lishments Of professional writer's,
these testimonials prove beyond a
! question that when all other prescrip
tons and medicines fail, Hoods Sar,
saparilla Cures. Another point. The
cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla are not
in distant states or countries, OF
among people of whom we never hear
except in the newspapers, but they
are right here in our midst and often
among our own friends.

the present lack of government rev.
enue. The Senator varied the usual
custom in introducing his bill by
reading the full text of his measure
with great deliberation and then CON-
menting on it.
The bill provides for the immedi-
ate issue of SIOO,OOO,OOO in treasury
notes to meet the deficiencies. these
notes to be redeemable in coin and to
be constantly reissued. Itfurther di-
reefs the coinage the the seignorage
and the deposit of silver bullion
at American mints.
Hill Of New York asked if the Sena.
tor wished the immediate passage of
this bill.
"That question" said Pugh, @is in
line with the New York Senator's
treatment of all great public questions

Pugh proceeded to urge the gravity
Of the present situation. 1t was such
that he was ready to surrender long
convictions in order to secure a rem
edy. "Thus far" he said, @the Sena-
tors have stood here and torn down.
1t is easy to tear down. but it is hard
to build up. We have torn down I'M

confidence, should do something at

CHANCE FOR HOMESTEADERS
Millions Of Acreage Is Soon to Be Set
Aside
Each State Shall Donate Its Proportion OF
Lands-Idaho and Wyoming Are
Already at Work

WASHINGTON, June l5.-Millions and
millions OF acres to be added to the great
homestead areas of the west. The last
congress enacted law providing that
the general,government shall donate to
each state in VIII ich there are arid lands
loo. 900 acres of such lands on condition
that the reclamation is done by the states.
Already Idaho and Wyoming have COM
piled with all the formalties of the la w
and taken steps towards securing the
1000 600 acres OF land within her borders.
Lieutenant-G overnor Miles of Idaho and
Il. Meade of Wyoming, both appointed by
their resi- ective states, are here to CON-
plete final arrangements.
Their mission promises to be very sue
cessful. for they are receiving from Land
Commissioner Lamoreaux the most cor
dial cooperation.
THE steps which are now being taken
to transform all immense section OF arid
country into fertile and fruitful fields.
said the commissioner Twill without
doubt be most far-reaching in its effect.
Under the new law, however. the state Is
to undertake the work. and is to sell the
lands in sections OF not over 160 acres
to any one person, for such prices as
can be obtained The government retains
possession for five years. and if at the
end OF that time the reclamation appears
to be permanent. the title of the land
passes to the state. and thence to the set
tier. This means homes and farms for
multitude of people.

Attorney General Fitzgerald Holds 1t to Be
Imperative
SAN FRANCISCO, June 15.-The alien
amendment to the state constitution
adopted last year is construed by At
torney. General Fitzgerald to be inoper-
ative without legislative enactment so far
as the right of foreigners to hold real
property in California is concerned. It
has the effect, however, of giving resi-
dent reigners constit utional guaranty
to the possession of personal property,
heretofore only accorded by legislative
act.
The opinion was called forth by the
French consnl-geueral and was forwarded
to the governot today. AS the popular
Interpretation of the amendment has
been that aliens could neither acquire.
hold or transmit real property in Calitor-
mia. foreign investment in state enter
prises has of late fought shy of this state
and it is said that millions of dollars
have been kept away which would other
wise have gone into mines and that for
elgn loans have been refused for fear that
the amendment might throw cloud on
titles in case of a foreclosure on mortgage
property.
