Daughter OF Governor Mcdonnell
Coughs Up Piece of a Needle.
Boise, Idaho, oct. A remarkable case
was developed here today. For more
than year Mrs. w. e. Borah has been
a sufferer from some lung trouble. Some
doctors have claimed that she was going
into a decline, but the best advice was to
the effect that she had no affection of the
lungs. Still there were frequent hemorr-
hayes, and the case has puzzled her
friends and the doctors. She has been
taken to number OF resorts in the hope
or restoring her health, but it was fol-
lowed by failure In every instance
A few days ago Mr.. Borah took her to
Portland, and 1t was intended that she
should take a trip to California later on.
Today her husband received a dispatch
from the physician in charge stating that
the trouble was over; that in a spell of
coughing she had been relieved of a piece
of needle. 1t is now believed she will
be restored to her usual vigorous health.
Mrs. Borah is a daughter of Governor
Mcconnell.

Tho Testimony OF Physician Who Be-
lieves In Its Nourishing Powers.

The Testimony OF . Physician Who he
lieves In Its Nourishing Powers.
A medical man expresses the belief that
person could live for any length of time
and take heavy exercise all the while on
no other food than sweet milk. His con-
viction Is the result of personal expert
ment. He wanted to establish the fact
that persons Commissioning from sickness
may grow stronger with no other nutri-
ment than sweet milk and not that they are
Obliged to take something solid" to eat,
as so many people imagine. He holds
that many convalescent has gone into
his grave as result of overtaxing his
weak stomach by putting "solid" food In
to 1t, and he maintains that the old belief
as to bread being the first essential of hui
man life is shown by his experiments to
be erroneous.
His test was to live 80 days with only
sweet milk as a nourishment. In the
whole time he lost 5X pounds In weight,
but no strength. He even attributes the
loss of weight to the warmth of the wealth
er and to excessive exercise on the bicycle
and the daily manipulation of 10 pound
dumbbells and other heavy weights. He
took more exercise than usual in order to
test the thing fairly. On the seventh day
of the experiment he ran several foot races
with skillful runner and was beaten in
each race.
On the thirtieth day he again pitted
himself against the same runner and did
the best of the racing, which certainly
would tend TO confirm his statement that
he lost no strength during the 80 days
test. He drank four pints of milk daily
for the last week. He thinks a healthy
person should take about five pints of milk
daily when no other food is being taken
His practice was to drink milk at intervals
of two hours during the day, commencing
at o'clock in the morning and continuing
until 10 at night After that he would
take no more until next morning.-Phila-

Honors For Rosa Bonheur.

The Empress Eugene was a great adj
mirer of Mile. Bonheur and desired the
emperor to bestow upon her the cross OF
the Legion of Honor, writes Ella McKenna
Friend in The Ladies Home Journal. Up
to this time, 1864, the decoration had
never been given to n woman, except for
acts of great bravery. That it should be
given in recognition of talent alone was
opposed by Napoleons counselors, and he
was reluctant to bestow ii against their
advice.
During his absence tho next year the
empress acted as regent. Her first act,
when she retired to the palace of Fontaine-
bleau for the summer was TO drive
through the woods TO the artists home,
and surprising her in the blue blouse in
which she worked pinned To her breast
the cross and bit of ribbon that made her
a Knight of the Legion of Honor, the
greatest honor in the power of the i'm
perial government to bestow.
In 1898 new honors came 10 her In rec
ognition of her work at the Columbian
exhibition the president of the French re.
public advanced her To the grade of officer
of the Legion of Honor, bestowing an un-
usual and yet deserved honor upon the
most famous woman painter of her time.

Women aud Dress.

Women dress of course for two reasons
for the pleasure of making themselves
smart. and for the still greater joy of snuff
ing out the others, said Mr.. Worth.
"And never for their own persons onlyY
Never to frame in and set up their indi-
viduality by clothing it in what BELTS 1t
bests Never Co harmonic their essence
with their substance, their self with their
surroundings
II must say again that don't quite
follow you. If you mean whether they
dress to suit their bodies, according to
their own ideas of suitability, should say
no at once, because you see, the women
who come TO me want to ask for my ideas,
not TO follow out their own. They deliver
themselves to mo in confidence, and de-
eide for them; that makes them happy. If
tell them they are suited, they need no
further evidence.
"Do you never find rebel among them?
Does no one ever claim the right of per-
sonal invention and choice:"
"Choice Yes, certainly, but only be-
tween my various suggestions. And very
few do even that. Most of them leave it
all TO me. But as for invention, no. My
business is not only to execute, but espe-
cially to invent. l don't want people to
invent for themselves. Ii they did,
should lose half my trade. "-Blackwood' 5

The Rev. George X. Dodson, the popu-
lar Unitarian minister of Alameda, tells a
rather good story at his own expense.
While spending summer vacation at
Skagg's Springs one Of his greatest friends
was little girl about years old. The
two were constant companions, and the
child daily accompanied the clergyman on
his excursions in the neighborhood. One
evening the little girl remarked to her fell
low diners:
II like going out with Mr.. Dodson."
"Whys" queried stranger, hoping to
draw the child out.

startling reply.
When the summer boarders had recover
ed their equanimity, they instituted an in
vestigation, the upshot of which was the
discovery that the curly haired maiden
possessed an Unsuitable craving for stories.
This desire was frequently gratified by Mr..
Dodson; but, unlike the. anecdotes in her
books, the minister's tales were never
pointed with an obtrusive moral-San
