In the year 1868, Mr.. J. R. Watkins first began
the manufacture Of DR.. Wards liniment. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established living,
paying business, and made the name CDR. Wards"
household word in thousands of homes. Dur
Ing all these long years Of toiling and waiting,
found so lost to every principle Of right and
justice as to undertake to despol him of his bus
lness, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, In this
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents offering medicines said to be DR.. Wards or
'just as good as DR.. Wards, J" frequently leading
CUSTOMERS into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, In order to protect his BUSH
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr.. Watkins bought from Richard Ward, the
worldwide right to use his name as trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to Be registered in the u. S. Patent Office
No. 1885.

THE WRECK OF THE JULIE PLANTE.
On one dark night on Lac St. Pierre
The wind she blow, blow, blowl
And the crew of the wood scow Julie Plante
Got scare g. run below.
The wind she blow like hurricane.
Byme bye she blow some more,
And the scow got wrack on Lac St. Pierre
Bout half mile from the shore.
The captain he walk the front dack.
He walk the hind dack too.
He call to cook from up the hold
He call the cook also.
The cook his name was Rosie
He come from Montreal.
He was chambermaid on a lumber barge
On the Big La Chine Canal.
The wind she blow from northeast west.
The south wind she blow too.
When Rosie cry: "Cher captain,
Mon Dieu! What shall we do?"
The captain he throw out the hauk,
But still the scow she drift,
And the crew can't pass on the shore.
For why2 She lose the slxif.
The night was dark like one black cat.
The wave roll high and fass.
The captain he took poor Rosie
And lash him to the mass.
The captain he put on life preserve
And jump off on the lac.
He cry: "Good bye my Rosie, dear.
! go drown for your sake"
Mex morning very hearty
Bout half past two, three, four,
The captain, crew 8 wood scow, too,
Was corpses on the shore.
The wind she blow like hurricane.
Byme bye she blow some more.
And the scow buss up on Lac St. Pierre
Bout half mile from the shore.
MORALS
Now, all good wood scow sailor men,
Take warning by this storm
Go marry some nice little French gal
And live on one big farm.
Then the wind she can blow like hurricane;
Byme bye she can blow some more,
But you can't get wrack on Lac st. Pierre
So long you stay on shore.

 It was a well planned dinner for thirty-fve cents. "How pretty it all isl" cried, as I looked at the carved buffet and the coloring of the plain but attractive room.
 The bedrooms shown to the visitor r7who wishes to hire them are very plain and not particularly attractive, but. the individual arrangement of the occu- pants has made them especially home- like and artistic. One large spacious room with low ceiling had wooden floor covered with artistic rugs. In one corner was an organ. The two touches of the room, so comfortable and pretty to the sight, were the beds, and these were adorned with handsome coverings. A center table with lamp and books gave a perfect touch, and the feature of much interest was a cabinet filled with pretty pieces of Bohemian glass and all the curios so dear to the heart of student in Paris An old dresser with its brass fnishings was placed be- tween the windows, and the walls were covered with sketches, some bearing the names of masters in the world of art. At one side of the wall was hung rare Persian tent cover. It was a warm bit of coloring in the chamber and with all the other clever touches an effective

It was the hour of pleasure and es- sential1y the time of all others to see the club house. There heard all the news in the students world from the chatter concerning plans for travel to the merits of some celebrated picture for the salon. The low French win dows open on broad veranda and the warm sunshine flooded the place. In early summer the tea table is placed there and under the vine.covered ar bors, with the scent of the roses In the air, tea is dispensed.
 From the tea-room, little later on, strolled into the reading-room. It IS filed with all that makes library de- sirable. The long table in the center of inc room contained magazines and newspapers, and, as looked about, the various pictures of the girl students in Paris impressed me strongly.

Many years ago a certain magnate in the west of England-doctor of divinity and chairman of the quarter sessions was also an enthusiastic geologist. One day farmer, who had seen him presid- ing on the bench, was riding along a quiet road, when he discovered tho magistrate seated by the roadside on heap of stones, which he was engaged in breaking with small hammer in the course of hunt for fossils. The farmer refined up his horse and for a minute gazed open-mouthed; then, shaking his head over the changeable- ness of all things human, exclaimed, in tones of the deepest commiseration: What, doctorl be you come to this s,ready?"-Cornhiu Magazine.

Their voices are sweet and low, while the subdued tone of their. complexion is relieved, by the arch, vivaeity of night black eyes. But the domestic affec- tions are not cultivated-in fact, home to the average Cuban is only place to sleep
 The first attempt of the Cubans to throw off the Spanish yoke was made in 1923, when Simon Bolivar offered to aid the disaffected party by putting an invading force into the island. An other was made in 1926, and third in 1s28 Under the leadership of Gen. Lopez conspiracy was developed at Clenfuegos and Trinidad in 1s4s to es- tablish Cuban independence, but the natives were timid, and after two years of desultory fighting Lopez was over powered and executed in 1850. The island was in a chronic state of civil war from 1868 to 1876, fact which so attracted the attention of President Grant that, in the interest of American and Cuban commerce, he proposed an- nexation. These outbreaks were led by Cespedes, an able lawyer and wealthy planter of Bayamo, and dur ing the eight years of hostilities Spain actually sent to Cuba 145,0o0 enlisted 2 men, of whom only few hundred ever returned. Since 1876 rowing bands of insurgents have caused the authorities more or less serious trouble, and the mountains and half-inaccessible forests of the eastern shore still serve to se- crete many armed and disaffected peo- pie.
 In the revolutions of 1878 the com manders of the little guard costa gum boats, probably in utter ignorance of international law, interfered with American shipping, and the Spanish government had to pay for their rash ness.

 ''Is it true that girls can live and study here for mere song?" and the reply, came very quickly: -

 "The club was started, you see," con- tinued Miss Taylor, as she leaned back in a great rocker and swayed to and fro, "by the late W. W. Newell and his wife, who for r4any years lived here among the students and realized the necessity for some such place for the American girl over here, to complete her education, whether in music or painting. Mrs. Whitefaw Reid, through Mrs. Newell, became interested in the plan and assumed the entire expense of the club. It was then a small af- fair consisting of reading and tea rooms where every afternoon tea was served and where the girls of the Amer ican colony gathered together for an hour to read the latest magazines, to write letters and enjoy the sense of comfort and companionship such a place brought.
 Next came the restaurant, and then the clubhouse. This was two years ago. Mrs. Whitelaw Reid made her. self responsible for the rent and taxes and the business affairs are controlled by a committee of ladies living in Paris.'''

FACTS TOLD OF CUBA.
The Island Is the Wealthiest of
 Spanish Possessions.
Revolutions Have Been Frequent for More Than Seventy-FiSe Years-Havana, the Capital, Is a Great and
 Prosperous City.

Cuba is about an large as England proper, without the principality of Wales. Its greatess length is 500 miles, i.s snarrowest part 20 miles, and it's aver age width about 40 miles. The circumfer- ence of the island is 2,ooO miles, and is supposed to contain 35, GOO square miles, N The nearest port to this continent is Matanzas, lying due south from Cape Sable, Fla, distance of only t30 miles,
 Havana is 60 miles west of Matanzas
 The climate is variable, but snow never falls in Cuba. In the cities and near the swamps yellow fever prevails from the middle of June to tho last e Octo- Der, but in the interior of the island it is no more unhealthy than in American cities in summer. The average tenn terature at Havana is IT. the maximum 80 and the minimum 50 degrees. The population of the island is about 2,0oO,- 900, of which soc, o,000sa are Spaniards.'
 Havana, the eighth commercial capi- tai of the world, with population of 100000, has harbor populous with the ships of all nations. Moro Castle, with it's big guns pecring out through the yellow stones and it's sentinel light house, stands guard over the narrow entrance, with the battery of La Punta opposite. The city is rich in public buildings, cathedrals and venerable churches. The dwelling-houses are uni versally so constructed as to form an open square in the center, which con- stitutes the only yard or court attached. The house is divided into living-room, a storcroom, chambers and stable these all upon one foor-while the fam fly vehicle blocks up in part the only entrance, which is used in common by horses, ladies, slaves and gentleman callers. The rooms are lofty and the floors succeed or tiled in marble, while the walls and ceilings are frequently ornamented in fresco. The most strik- ing peculiarity of the town-house in Cuba is the precaution taken to render it safe against sudden attack, each ac- cessible window being secured with stout iron bars from top to bottom, while bullet-proof doors bar the en-
