Mr.. Henry Senior, residing in
Brooklyn, N. Y, is one of the few
wood engravers who continue to
do commercial work. His office in
New York is in the same building
with the counting room of the
Ripans Chemical Co. Three or four
years ago Mr. Senior was presented
with a box of Ripans Tabules.
These he took home. Ever since
that day he has been a regular
customer. His Wife's mother is
pronounced in the opinion that for
gastric troubles, or for any irregu-
larity proceeding from disordered
stomach, the Tabules are the best
medicine to which her attention
has ever been directed during all
her long experience. His wife at
one time astonished him by assert
ing that for sore throat the
Tabules were a remedy of amazing
effectiveness. He understands
this better now since he has learned
from his physician that sore throat
like many other apparently local
troubles, notably headaches
often direct result of a diSordere6
stomach; and for this Mr.. Senior
well knows that the Tabules are an
specific.

Chtnges In the British Ministry.
Wien q British cabinet resigns and
the queen invites the head Of the oppo-
site political party to form a new cabi-
net, it is the same as if in America the
governmental policy should suddenly
change from Democratic to Republican
toned to hold up their government to
Americans as being much more stable
than ours. 1t runs along firmly and
smoothly without the commissions of
such frequent general elections, they
say.
The truth is that the real government
Of England changes much more often
than that Of the United States does,
though the British do not make 80 much
fuss over the matter az we do. In the
past so years the United States has had
IS presidential elections. These have,
however, involved a radical change of
policy from Democrat to Wing and from
Republican to Democrat or otherwise
only seven times in the years since 1914.
Going back half q century in British
politics, we find the Liberals have been
In power six times. The Conservatives
have been in power. counting the min
istry just formed, seven different times.
Against our seven changes Of govern
ment policy therefore the British, with
their so called stable government, count
up ID.
When an American president, rs
sometimes happens, finds himself by Q
congressional election in the middle at
his term stranded high and dry without
any congress ut his back, he can only
rub along tho best he can till his term
If Office expires. If he were the SC called
sovereign Of England, no matter what
his political views were, when his cab.
met found that congress would not pass
the bills the administration desired, he
would be obliged to accept the resigna.
ton Of his secretaries and form a cabi-
net of those who held opposing political
views. It will thus be seen that the
queen Of England has less political
power than our president.
In N respect the queen of England
has, however, more power than the pres.
ident. When parliament will no longer
respond to the British cabinet by voting
in accordance with its views, the prime
minister may advise the queen to dis
solve the parliament and order u new
election, which she does accordingly.
This the American president cannot do,
although he undoubtedly wishes he
could sometimes.

DR.. Johnson stoatly poohpoohed the
notion of the effect of weather ON the
mind. ITO temperance" he wrote.
EVERY day is bright, and every hour is
propitious to diligence. Johnson. how
ever, was little given to analyze the in
fuences Of nature, or any other infu-
ences, upon himself. And 1t may well
be that this disposition on his part was
in the spirit of the stoics and in def
ance of his W feelings, to which he
disdained to give way. 1t seemed t.
him a sorry thing that "a being en-,
lowed with reason should resign his
powers to the influences Of the air and
live in dependence on the weather and
the wind. Temple Bar.

husband. who Is a son of Jacob, the
brother of the commodore, now dead.
Mrs. Vanderbilt is the daughter Of Ed
ward Smith of Cazenovia, n Y, who is
only fairly well-to-do. She became &C
quainted with her husband in 1856. He
was then a widower, with two chill
dren, Howard and Robert. Two years
after she was married to him Mr.. Van
derbilt left her. He told her that his
father would disinherit him If he did
not do so. The objection to her was
that she was poor girl. Mrs. Van
derbilt brought suit for 100000 dam
ages against her father-in-law for
alienation of her husbands affections.
Just before Capt. Vanderbilt died he
effected a settlement with her. 1t was
said she received $4,000. At the same
time she began suit against her hus-
band for separation and support, and
Justice Barrett allowed her 500 a
month alimony and $1,000 counsel fee

at the graceful form and red cheeks of
the model within.
The employees of the store at first
thought he was pickpocket or pros

turned to gaze at the wax figure, and
they have concluded to let him gaze
at his charmer in peace.

RACHEL MOGSTAD.

turned to Chicago more than a year
ago. She had visited her cousin Bessie
in childhood and their childish attach
ment was renewed with warmth at
once upon their reunion in Chicago.
She was a frequent attendant at Luth-
eran church.
Bessie Youngren was born In Chris
tiania, Norway, seventeen years ago.
Her childhood was surrounded with
more helpful associations than her
cousin had known. The home of her
parents was happy one, comprising
a family of six children. Fourteen
years ago the Youngrens left Norway
for Minnesota. Two years later they
came to Chicago. Bessie's childhood,
therefore, was spent in Chicago in the
northwestern part of the city, among
people in the main of her own nation
ality.
When Miss Mogstad finished her
studies under Mrs. Sechuus and left the
latter's roof she persuaded her cousin
10 become her roommate. There was a
strong opposition to Bessie leaving
home. The parents had begun to OBJ
ject TO the marked attachment of the
girls. They wanted Bessie to remain
under home influences and the willful
cousin was upbraided for getting her
away. But the spell had taken such
hold on the younger girls mind she
would not heed her parents. Whether
she realized it or not, Bessie's attach
ment for Rachel had made her come to
regard the latter's wishes as dearer to
her than life.
The older girls course was directed
by her dominant traits-pride and re-
serve. She did not welcome the con-
fidence of any one except her cousin,
perhaps out of fear that condolences
would not be held inviolato and lest by
unfolding her heart she might expose
herself to the shafts of ridicule. She
had always known Bessie and trusted
her. and when in young womanhood
her nature cried out for sympathy Miss
Mogstad chung to the only anchor she
ever knew. Probably this lonely wom-
an found her mind intensified in its
svmpathy for women as result OF
her studies.
Thus Il came about that wnen the
lover appeared one girl chose death In
nraference to loneliness and the
tbwarting of her plans. Women some
times court death in this alternative
II was not illogical in her to compel
the object of her affection to join her
in death. And the situation would
have suggested dragging along young
Iohnson. innocent author OF the deed
into the abyss.
The weaker girl accepted death be-
