But He Learned to Endure, Then. to
Embrace, the BlOOmers.
A family from the New England
states who moved to Chicago shortly
before the fair, and are now living on
the south side, received a letter a few
weeks ago that an old relative, an
esteemed bachelor uncle, Familiarity
known to young and old as Uncle
Reuben" would make them a visit
before he died, and, no time being
like the ~present-not, of course, to
die, but to make them a visit-he
would arrive at such and such a
time.
Now, Uncle Reuben being, as they
term it in New England vernacular,
RATHER well tiX'd," and having no
nearer blood relations than this fam
ily in Chicago, his intending visit was
eagerly discussed and a cordial inv1-
tation extended.
The family, of which the male head
is a professional man, consists OF two
charming young daughters and an
equally charming mother this side OF
forty, but young for her age. The
family live in a rather swell neighbor-
hood, and move among the gayest set
on the south side, participating with
pleasure in all amusements, and in
particular bicycling, both mother and
daughters belonging to a swell club,
and have adopted the latest style in
boomers.
OF course, knowing Uncle Reuben's
old-fashioned ideas of what is proper,
it would nOt do to appear on a bicycle,
far less in a bicycle costume, but as
several days would elapse before
Uncle Reuben would arrive. the ladies
decided one beautiful morning to take
a final spin. and started out for their
forenoon of pleasure.
Three or Jour hours later they ar
rived home, let themselves in the
house with their latch keys, when, to
their horror, who should they find in
the library but Uncle Reuben. The old
man stood speeches. for a minute
and then grabbed his hat and held it
before his face. "YOur skirts have
fallen off! Your skirts have fallen
off! the old man cried. To run up
stairs and change their costumes was
the work of a few minutes, and on
descending the young women found
Uncle Reuben closely examining the
wheels in the hall.
1t seems that Uncle Reuben had
decided to start earlier than he in
tended, and that a telegram had had
miscarried in some way. TO now
make Uncle Reuben forget HIS first
impression and view the matter in a
nireteenth-century way, was the a

GEN. LEES LAST YEARS.
He Was Never Seen to Smile After
the War Ended.

tne war En0eu.
Gen. Lee never left Lexington after
he assumed the presidency of the col
lege," said s. d. Mccormick recently.
HE had distinguished visitors from
North and South, and from Europe,
and they still come to visit his tomb.
Hundreds of invitations came to him
to attend army reunions and the like,
but he always co%urteously declined
them. But every evening he would
mount his horse and take an hours
ride. l have often met him at these
times. He would always give the
military salute. Sometimes he would
ein in his horse and talk. His de-
meanor was always dignitied and seri-
Gus; indeed, sad. L never saw him
smile. One could feel the very per-
sonality of Lee pervading the atmos-
phere around old Washington and
Lee university. Every student was
on his honor. Not n Of them would
lie. You have sOme idea of what col
lege boys are and what many of them
will do. They will stop at nothing in
their FRANKS. Yet students at that
university have convicted themselves
of pranks that caused their expulsion
because they could not lie when
brought face to face with Gen. Lee.
He was absolutely a pure man, if
ever one lived. He neither drank,
chewed 0 smoked, 0 ever used
vulgar language. He was a clean
man. Washington was his dol. He
patterned his life after that illustri-
patriot. In his very bearing n
personality he reminded III of Wash
ington. You know how closely he
was allied with the family OF Wash
ington. The name of Washington uni
versity was changed by the Virginia
legislature to that of Washington and
Lee university. Gen. Lees wife, Mary
GUSTS, sleeps by his side in the tomb
under the chapel platform at the uni
versity. Directly opposite the crypt
where Lee lies, and on the same floor,
is his private office, with everything
just as he left this chair, his pen,
everything just as he had it in life.
Above the crypt rises the monument,
and upon it the reclining figure of the
general in military trappings, executed
in the finest marble by Valentine.
Gusts Lee, his ION, is now president
of the university."-Cincinnati Times

To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs, and
throbbing nerves. Just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane, and "that tired feeling" is the
complaint of all.
The reason for this condition is
found in the deficient quality of the
blood. During the winter, owing to
various causes, the blood becomes
loaded with impurities and loses it's
richness and vitality. Consequently,
as soon as the bracing effect of cold
air is lost, there is langour and lack of
energy. The cure will he found in
purifying and enriching the blood.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
and best spring medicine, because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier

lingering doubt of this since the ses-

preston of a desire that it should not
be and that Charley Crane, who is
running the Republican end of the

of saying that he wanted to see the
Democrats fairly treated and would
feel relieved when the show of partisan
feeling was over and the convention
could finally settle down to business.

to have been made for q, deep, dark
purpose. They were intended to keep
