OUR WOMAN PHILOSOPHER.

On board Yachts all anectations Of tint are laid
aside. The colors OF the sea are the white Of
the clouds. the blue OF the and the yellow
OF the sunlight. Wherever else there may be
heliotrope and mauve. petunia and rose, green
and crimson, when the salt spray nes and the
deck leaps forward like a thing Of life there 10

And when mussed It has that air Of forlorn un-

puts to shame. White linen and white duck are
alike worn. but seem rather amiss in our late
season and winds from the open sea. The sailor
collar has this year invaded the shore and borne
everything before it. The exaggerated effects OF

Women, Get Strength
No Excuse for Debility and
Nervousness.
What Paine,s Celery Compound Does in a
Few Short weeks--Ir Makes q Tre-
mendous Difference With Tired,
Sticky Women.

From the Boston Herald.
In thousands of homes some one,
father, mother of brother, is actually
dying from starvation Of the nerves
and blood. The lack of nutrition of
some vital part is not usually called by
the harsh word starvation" but it
amounts to the same thing. II is called
dyspepsia, neuralgia. Bright's disease,
rheumatism or nervous prostration,
headaches or sleeplessness.
This general feeling of discomfort
throughout the body shows literal
starvation Of some of the important
organs of the body, either heart, kid
neys, stomach. liver or nerve centres.
Scores of men and women showing
their first gray hair, who in business
and society wear a smiling counten-
ance, are tortured in private by de-
spondency they can scarcely explain.
which renders their life almost unen-
durable. Such mental depression. fall
ing short of insanity, occurs most often
at the turning point" of life, or soon
after it, and is a lamentably common
complaint.
After middle life the body often be-
comes bloodless, the nerve tissue Inn
L
pound supplies building material for
used-up blood and nerves. 1t makes
people strong, rudy and well. It regu-
lates the nerves, feeds their wasted. ex-
hausted parts. purifies the blood Of all
dangerous humors and brings back
strength and health. Where there is a
gradual loss of strength, a growing
tf1inness, irritability and nervousness,
Paines celery compound keeps up the
strength and resists the final break
down to a state OF invalidism and of
constant suffering that is likely to come
where nothing is done to check the
wasting process.
1t is upon women that the great bur
den Of firing, exhausting and petty
duties fall.
Hundreds of homes might be saved
from sickness and unhappiness If the
wife or the husband, or some member
of the household could only see how
near aid and comfort Is TO the dear
ones who are slowly dropping and re-
taxing their interest in the things about
them, preparatory to leaving them for
ever. Paine's celery compound Is
within Their each Of every home in the
land where there is illness. 1t has met
the unqualified approval of reputable
physicians of every school.

Referring to the warmer climate
which is evidenced as having existed at
one time all over the earth, Sir William
Thomson says: 'The earth might
be a globe of white-hot iron, COW
cred with crust of rock two
thousand feet thick, or there might
be an ice-cold temperature within
fifty of the surface, yet the climats
could not on that account be sensibly
different from what it is, or the soii be
sensibly or less genial than it is for the
roots of trees or smaller plants" Mani.
testify, therefore, the duration of life
upon the surface can in no way be de-
pendent upon the length or intensity
of heat supply from the interior. This,
it is claimed, could not at the present
time melt millimeter thickness of ice

New York, Jan. 1.-THE week openetd on
the Stock Exchange with an irregular
market and the tone of speculation was
unsettled throughout the greater part of
the day. There was very heavy trading
in Chicago Gas, the transactions in which
were one-tllird of the total sales. At the
opening free offerings of stock were made
and a sharp break was made in the early
dealings of 27s per cent ex-dividend Of IL
per cent. The selling was credited to in
side interests in the main, but the bears
put out some fresh lines on reports Of
complications in the annual meeting called
for today in Chicago which rendered nee
essary an adjournment without electing
directors. AT the lower figures there was
some covering of short contracts which
caused recovery of per cent of which
70 per cent was lOSI IN the nndI QeaunSS
making the loss on the day 2ta per cent.
Sugar came next in point of activity but
moved in much narrower limits Opening
at an advance Of Y per cent, the shares
quickly declined 1ss per cent on a report
that the annual report had been made up
and was an unfayorable statement. The
depression was temporary and on good
buying induced by the lower figures an
improvement of IL per cent was recorded
with reaction of e per cent at the close,
making a gain of Y per cent on Saturdays
last sales. Distilling was among the most
firmly held stocks traded in, selling up "a

there was moderate buying of the other

the day and Rock Island Il per cent and

higher. The trading in the rest of the list
was light and the movement of prices was
with some exceptions unimportant, but
the general trend was toward higher
figures and in most cases the closing
figures showing gains on teh day.

Gathering gum is quite business by
Itself, and is carried on much more sys-

The gum picker is busy fellow, and,
like the hotel proprietor at some pleas
ant resort, has only a few months for
his business. When the woodsmen
enter the forests in the fall the gum
pickers follow and continue in the
woods till springtime. There are men
who make a practice of nipping from
spruce this material known as gam,
and do nothing else. They follow the
choppers through the woods, and when
the trees are felled pluck from the
trunk all the gum they may find

TWIN STARS,
As Viewed with tho Naked Eye They APP

As Viewed with the Naked Eye They APP
pear to Be One.
In the constellation Cygnus, which is
plainly marked out to the eye by the
figure called the Northern Cross, is .
faint star, numbered 81, which was the
first star whose distance from the
earth was measured, and which, not
withstanding its insignificant appear
ance, is one of the nearest stars in the
heavens
Examined with telescope, it Ia
found to be composed of two nearly
equal stars which appear to be con-
nected by their mutual attraction, so
that they revolve slowly around their
common center of gravity. They are.
then, two suns, each considerably
smaller than our sun, linked together
by gravitation.
Recently Prof Wilsing, at Potsdam,
has discovered something very peculiar
about this starry pair. He finds that
there are periodical variations In the
distance between the two stars which
are not accounted for by their known
relations to one another, and which,
he thinks, could DO explained by sup
posing that there are one or more in
visible bodies connected with them.
The thought that these invisible
bodies may be planets is a natural one.
The belief that there are planets re-
volving around some, at least, of the
stars is widespread, but the telescope
has not yet been able to reveal any TO
our eyes
Their attractions, however, must
have some effect upon the motion of
the stars to which they belong, and In
case they are very large and massive,
such an effect might be percetible to rs

nectcd with the double sun, 81 Cygni,
