People often have pale and sallou

ing and a general tired and exhausted
condition; the appetite is gone. The
spirits are depressed; strength, energy
and ambition are lacking; the sleep
may be disturbed, there may be neu-
ralgia and rheumatic pains. In fact
the entire system lacks vigor of nerves
and power of the body. These cendi-
tions arise from disordered state of

DEEDY FOR INSPECTION.
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1896-05-08
sAPRERS IN AUSTRIA,

The Austrians take no chances with
their BARRIERS, says the New York World.
They must be good, and the BARRIERS
and Wigmakers' union of Vienna sees
to it tLat they are. Provision is also
made in their code for women BARRIERS
who desire to carry on the business of
of their husbands in case of the latter's
death or illness.
But in order to do this the wife must
have been enrolled in the union as an APP
prentice for three years. Apprentices,
by the rules of the union, must appear
in Vienna in the presence of judges OF
the union and show their skill before
they are allowed to open shops of their
own.
A properly certified barber must have
a knowledge of and pass an examination
in shaving, hair-cutting, hair-curling
and wig-making, and during the period
before the issuance of certificate the
poor and others who are frugal serve
as subjects for experiment.
At the examination the young men
have their razors duIled by four strokes
in a pine plank, and they must then
sharpen them. A subject is assigned to
each, who must be tonsorially perfect,
iu the opinion of the judges, when the
apprentice has released him.
After this a certificate is issued and
the apprentice serves two years as a
iourneyman before he may open shop
as an employer. The average age of APP
prentices when they begin to learn their
trade is 10 years.

BRAVE AND COOL.
A Philadelphia Tenement-House Fire De-

Philadelphia Tenement-HOuse Fire De-
veIops a Young Heroine.
In January last q Philadelphia tene-
ment house was burned. Two omen were
killed and several persons were badly
injured, while others escaped in an al
most miraculous manner. The fourth
floor was occupied by the family of
Joseph Zellers. The father and mother
seem TO have been absent, but the five
children were at home. All were saved
through the bravery and GOODNESS of
the oldest of them, a girl of 16, whose
conduct is briefly described by the Rec
ord:
Jenny Zellers was dressing the chill.
dren, the youngest mere babe, when
cloud of smoke came into the room and
at the same time the frantic cries Of
those below reached her ears.'
Hastily opening the door, she saw the
flames leaping up the stairway toward
her. Never hesitating, she closed the
door, and calling the children together
forced them up ladder and through q
trap-door to the roof. They were ele-
waited high above the surrounding build
ings, and below them the flames were
roaring with terrible fury.
Still retaining her presence of mind,
the brave girl dropped her brother, a lad
of IA, to the roof of the house to the
south. 1t was fall of ten feet, but the
boy landed safely, and then the girl
braved the fire in her doomed home to
secure a quantity of bedding.
This she threw to her brother, who
arranged it on the roof, and then, one By
one, she dropped the other children.
The infant she took in her arms and
leaped with it in safety to the bedding.
Next she broke skylight in the roof to
which all had escaped, and lowering the
children through it, they all reached the
street.

AN HONORABLE VEGETABLE.
The Onion Has Its Admirers-The Ana
conda MONTY Onion Society.

COuua NhOnt.D Union society.
The nutritious and wholesome onion
occasionally finds its indicators. At
the thriving Montana city of Anaconda
there is a dining club called the Ana.
conda Onion society. Its first feast was
recently given with distinguished sue
cess.
Down the center of the hall, says the
Anaconda Standard, was set a long
table, with cover for all the guests. At
each plate was large and juicy onion;
in the middle of the table was an array
of meats, bread, fruit-crackers, cheese
and other things.
At one end of the hall foated the
standard of the club in proud conspic-
uousness. 1t consisted of pole sur
mounted by a string of the vegetables
from which the socity takes its name.
On the wall hung this motto, beautifully
wrought:
IN ONION THERE is STRENGTH.
Each member wore pretty bouton-
nier of little onions. The occasion was
greatly enjoyed by all the participants,
anu 1le soSlety hoPeS W w uuuSh W IL
store the onion to the honor and esteem
Of the world.
In Montana, as well as on the whole
of the Pacific slope, the onion attains a
deliciousness of quality which is COM
paratively unknown on the eastern side
of the continent. If the people of the
east could have onions as good as those
of Montana and California, it is possible
that the Anaconda Onion society might
find imitators in the east.
