Worker While Paine's Celery Compound
edsts-Mr. N. J. Grace Speaks in Praise Of
H.

One of the clearest commissioned. best
looking mon in Boston today, SAYS the
Boston Globe, is prominent Now Eng
lane agent Of u great railroad, who uses
Paine's celery compound spring and fall,
and whose wife and children take it daily
during the spring months.
Mr.. \. J. Grace OF the Grand Trunk is
modest man, one of the best liked
gentlemen in Boston, and thorough
railroad man.
When asked about the merits Of Paine's
celery compound he said no believed in IL
thoroughly had used il himself and In his
family for two years with the most graft
flying results
My boys are using it now, hc said,
and | believe there is no better spring
medicine than Paino's celery compound.
A touch of rheumatism first urged me to
try it, and times after that, when run
down, as most every one is at intervals
through the year, found that il revived
the vital spark and made me feel better.
Never in all my experience among men
have heard remedy so highly spoken
of. Friends of mino have used 1t with
splendid results for dyspepsia and liver
complaint, while for insomnia neighbor
of mine tells mo that'it will banish IL In
a night"

Got Wealth by q Whipping.

John James Mago, quiet, middle.
aged man, has had career as romantic
as that of Monte Cristo. Mago is now
q Guatemalan millionaire, who lives
nine months in the year in Paris.
Twenty years ago he was poor Eng
lish collector of insects in Guatemala,
and also acted as the British consul at
San Jose.
One day CommandaIte Gonzales
ordered Mago to appear before him.
Mago sent word that he would come
in a short time. This incensed the
commandante, and he sent q file of
soldiers after Mago, and when the
insect collector appeared ordered fifty
lashes to be laid upon his bare back.
This was done very thoroughly, and
when it was finished Gonzales shouted
"Give him fifty more for luck"
When Mago recovered, which was
only after very careful nursing, as his
back was badly cut up, he made a
formal complaint to the British Gov
ernment. The result was that Guate-
mala was ordered to punish Gonzales,
and to pay Mago $500 for every lash
hs had received. In default of this
English cruisers would shell San Jose
and other coast cities.
Guatemala readily punished Coma.
les, but tried hard to evade paying
$50, 900 to Mago. The British, how.
ever, were inexorable, and the poor
collector was made comparatively
rich man in one day. As he had more
coin than any one in the country at
that time, President Barrios went into
partnership with him.
Mago became one of the largest
coffee planters. and also secured the
contract for building docks in that
port. No one can land or leave one
of these docks without paying toll to
Mago, while he also levies tax on all
freight. He also owns valuable mines
and tracts of timber. His fortune is
estimated at Sc, 1000, 900, all due to 100
lashes on the back.-Detroit Free

MRS. C1KvE1AND's APPEARANCE.

I saw Mrs. Cleveland in Washington
the other day, and I have not seen her
looking 80 we'll for years. The Presi-
dent himself may be troubled with
gout and rheumatism, but his wife is
the picture of health. Her color is
brighter and her step lighter than it
has been for some time. She attrib-
utes all this to the fact that she lives
in the White House but very little of
the time. The Executive Mansion has
too many chinks in it's venerable
boards through which the wind enters
and gambols to make it in any sense Q
sanitarium, and it is distinctly un.
healthy. It was Mrs. Cleveland's idea
for the Presidential family to do most
of their living in the suburbs of the
city, and it was at her request that
Woodley was purchased and devoted
to tnis purpose. She is very proud of
the success of her plan, and smilingly
says that she will next try to do away
with the White House altogether. -

THREE SUCCESSFUL SISTERS.

The Misses Swami are three Louis
vile girls who have made success as
designers and carvers of choice furpi-
ture. In 1880 Miss Laura Swami
made a. cedar chest and sold 1t for
$35. Miss Joie tried her hand on a
wardrobe which was sold for $40. The
third sister designed and executed a
six-piece suite which was quickly sold
for $215. The father then fitted up q
shop for the girls. They prepare work
only on orders, and seek only the best
trade. No Implications are permitted.
The designs, the construction, the
carving are all done by the three Sis

DARE TO DIE?

Christian, ask yourself this question. You
must die, and may die very soon. Dare you
die today? Is your house and your heart set
in order, 80 that you can meet your Judge
with smile, and not with fear? Wereyou to
sit at the gate Of glory and wait for charges
against your life (before your entrance, ,)would
you dare to meet them? Would your children
come up and say, he has done his duty to lis;
his prayers, and councils, and life have ever
pointed to the path of purity? Would the
church testify that you have been faithful to
every obligation, and keptyour covenant VOWS
with scrupulous exactness? Would your min
lister affirm that you had stayed his hands,
and ever stood ready to cooperate with him
in efforts to save souls? Would the inpeni-
tent say, you have ceased not to warn US and
beseech us to come to Christ? The Sabbath
school, and the heathen, and the destitute OF
our land, would they declare that you have
done your duty? God has his eye on all these
things, and will Judge you according to the
truth In all these cases. My brother, have
you done your whole duty. 80 that you can give
In your account without fear Of accusation In
regard to your various responsibilities? Are
you worldly, penurious, cold, formal, seldom
In the prayer-meeting, ,morose in your family,
careless about the salvation of souls? Oh
how the eye Of God will search you and how
you will quail before him! Dare you go into
his presence in such state? Are you In such
a state? Then, how dare you die? But you
will die. You cannot avoid 1t. Suddenly, it
is likely you may be called. How dare you
live so careless, and hoard up your money
without regard to dying world? You are a
steward, and are squandering your Lords
substance. Suppose you should employa man
at $50 Il month, to manage your business In
your absence. On your return. you find he
has neglected your business rode around in
your carriage, spent his time in pleasure and
folly, or in boarding the income Of your farm
for his own good. You call him to an account
and demand why he has behaved thus, and
he replies, just to show how you treat your
God, what could you say? With such treat
ment, dare you meet your God2 II you live
thus. dare you die? Let US search and try
our ways and prepare to meet our God

A Hero of Ping Yang.

On the morning of the 18th of Sep
tember all the gates but one of the
Chinese stronghold of Ping Yang in
Korea had nearly yielded to the jap
anese attacks, but the Gerbn gate,
the strongest position, was still
strongly held by Chinese braves, who
stubbornly resisted the Japanese of
the Genzan column.
The staff of the column were about
to consult on some other means OF
capturing the position when Captain
Mimura was seen alone rushing for
ward toward the gate. Everybody
who saw him thought that he was
mad. His example was soon followed
by q private, who ran ahead of him.
Before the wondering Japanese officers
could recover from their surprise, the
private had begun climbing the wall
in the obscure corner of the castle
amid q torrent of bullets from the
Chinese defenders above.
The smoke hid him for q moment,
and when it cleared he WAS not to be
seen. His comrades believed him to
have been shot down. But presently
the gate on which the eyes of the
japanese attacking parties were riveted
was seen to open from within, and
there stood the brave soldier, un-
wounded and safe, his sword dripping
with Chinese blood.
The hero of this brave deed was
Jinkichl Harada, young farmer. he
was promoted at once to the rank of
corporal, and expected to receive the
imperial recognition in the shape of
gold kinshi medal, which was specially
created to reward those deserving O
it in the present war.-New Yotl

one class of laborers who can make
their own terms and can invariably.
carry their point; because the demand
is greater than the supply. And the
reason for Kat is the self-same, be-
cause our AN rican women as class,
do not care muoa for the work OF cook
ing, and so are at the mercy OF those
they hire to do it for them. It is not
necessary to go into these women's
kitchens to supply their food.
But one may do it at ones own
home by having grocer or other sale
man in the town take what one makes
at percentage. The one thing to
bear in mind is this---one must be
rigidly honest. That is, one has no
right to set q fancy price on ones
wares, nor to make those that are not
first-class Of their kind. If this rule
is adhered to and perseverance through
disagreeables is added to it, success is
certain. ---Philadelphia Press.

ELECTRICAL COSMETIC.

ELECTRICITY is greater than any cos
metio as a besutiier. It also puts
more and frmer flesh on the face in q
shorter space of time than any known
tonic. This has been found true late.
ly by New York women, with the re-
suit that those of the sex who go in
for fine, rosy skins are taking elec-
tricity along with athletic aids to
physical culture.
The machinery required is a small,
portable electric battery. with fara-
die current. Be sure that it is fara.
die, for its opposite, the galvanic,
burns and blisters, while the other is
only, to quote an old darky, ''pow'ful
stimerlatiye. One of small size is
, the right sort to get. Women who
are adopting them apply the current
to the muscles Of the face, rubbing
the sponges firmly over cheeks and
foreheais. The same treatment is ap-
piled to the throat and shoulders. The
muscles begin to enlarge and harden,
the face fills out, lines disappear and
q fine, natural bloom shows under the
skin.
This is what the advocates claim for
it. I know one woman who was very
slender and she has gained twenty
pounds in three months, since using
her battery. Women who have thin
necks and shoulders are trying elec-
tricity to develop the latter into q
condition that will permit of an 1880
gown this winter at social affairs.
Its effect is healthier than any OIL,
cold cream or the manufacturers evils
that are In continuous use by slender
women, desirous of the sbolishing of
prominent bones and wrinkles. Then
it is less expensive, the batteries cost
ing only 81 and $14. More expensive
ones can be bought, OF course, but
those at this price are adequately bene-
fetal. The amount Of current to be
turned on can be learned from any
physician, and there are not sufficient
volts to cause esth.-Boston Sunday
