WHERE DUTY LEADS.
A ssSIum Sister, of the Salvation
Army.

A .Slum Sister, of the salvation
Army.
The life of slum sister" means
daily contact with vice as we'll as pow
erty; it means the endurance OF cold
and often hunger, and threadbare and
insufficient clothing; it means, in
short, companionship, day and night,
with misery and degradation; and yet
the slum sister is always smiling.
She has an inexhaustibls store Of
cheerfulness at ler command, and is,
besides, wise and tactful. She teaches
no creed. She meets the Romanist or
the Jew, not on points of doctrine, but
on the common ground of love Of
righteousness and hatred of sin. The
dey's ministration in the tenement
house is wearing both to soul and
body, and at night comes even more
difficult work in the saloons and dives.
AS many as fifteen short meetings
have been held in one nights round
of saloons-a song and prayer or two
with no attempt toward haranguing or
argument; or, if permission to sing is
not given, few words are spoken, and
slip, with short, direct text, is pre-
scented to each man.

When this crisis comes, when the wo-

A Simple Remedy for Headache.

DemOrest Magazine,
Usually headache is not to be re-
garded as disease, but as a symptom
OF internal disorders,-a warning sent
out by Nature OF troubles which but
for this arresting pain might pass I'M
needed till grave complications had
set in. Both nervous and sick head
aches arise from-fatigue more frequent
ly than from any other cause, and
absolute rest must be part of the treat
ment in each case. The woman who
persists in ignoring the racking pain
of a nervous headache, and by the
exercise of a strong well-power drives
herself oil to accomplish whatever
duties or engagements lie before her,
is heaping up for herself days of bitter
reckoning. She should accept the
pain as a danger-signal, and give the
tired brain and body the care and rest
they need. Many cases will find
almost immediate relief from bathing
with hot water. If someone can do
this for you, all the better; but if you
must be your own nurse, put on a
loose wrapper, knot your hair high,
out of the way, and, sitting in low
chair by the side OF the bathtub so
the head can be bent over it, battle
the back OF the neck with water as
hot as can be borne. Rub the sponge
up back OF the ears, also, and across
the forehead. Ten minutes of this
treatment should afford relief; if it
does, sponge the whole face and throat
for few minutes with hot water, then
dash cold water over the face, and lie
down for half.hour. or, better still,
sleep for an hour or longer.
Obstinate cases which are not re-
lieved by the hot-water bathing must
use also q hot foot-bath with mustard
and salt in the water. This is also the
first remedy To be employed for a dizzy,
congestive headache, often produced
by prolonged mental work, and greatly
aggravated by indigestion, constipa-
ton, and any disturbances OF the
circulation. If the pain be increased
by using the eyes, it is perhaps caused
by eye-strain, in which case it is often
confounded with bilious and sick head.
ache, being frequently accompanied
by nausea, restlessness, and sleepless-
ness. OF course, for this, perfect rest
for the eyes is necessary.

stocked market caused by the
scarcity of money, fall in prices
and inability of the people to buy,
and OF agriculturists to receive a
fair compensation for their pro-
ducts. Added to this, the gold
reserve has again sunk below the
800, 900, 600 limit, that too at the
very time when the sovereign peo-
pie were declaring IN laundering
tones at Chicago their determine
tion to secure their emancipation
from such a ruinous and destruc-
tive financial policy as that which
prevails.
Another bond issue is inevitable.
The 800, 900, 900 borrowed has
steadily flowed out of the spigot to
English and European Golfers, and
the speculative cOnspirators who
have planned to shackle the Ameri-
can people with the burden of an
intolerable public debt, have at
last aroused them to determined
resistance. These conspirators
may precipitate a financial crisis,
as they are threatening to do, to
further cypress the people in the
effort to enslave them. But they
have proclaimed their second decla
ration of independence, and are
arrayed under the financial banner
of bimetallism to combat and defeat
the yellow dragon of monometal-
lism.
Twice have the American people
successfully resisted the armed en-
croachments of British power to de.
stroy their liberty on land and sea.
Yet again will they successfully re-
sist and overthrow their third in
sidious assault through the dan
gerous, enervating and corruptive
power of British gold. The pa
triotism, the firmness, the bravery
of the great masses of the Ameri-
can people will be found equal to
the emergency, despite powerful
enemies abroad and treachery at
home. Elk.

the platform and ticket. In point
of fact, they are no longer Demo

effectually separated them from

HOTEL GUTTED.
An Early Mornings Fire Destroys
the Wood Work OF the Bruins
wick Hotel.


The Brunswick Hotel, long two
story brick house, running from
Broad street back almost to the
ally, aud situated between State
street and Maple, being on the
south side of the block, was discOv-
cred to be on fire at o'clock Sun
day morning.
,Tbe building belonged to Bryant
Hargett, of Bowie county, and was
occupied by Tom Tierney as hotel,
having been thus used since it was
built some eight or ten years ago.
Mr.. Tlerney is away from home for
the present, and has been for a
year, but his wife has been keeping
up the hotel.
At the first alarm turned in both
fire companies responded quickly,
and had two good streams playing
on the inside of the building.
1t was thought that the whole
block would go as the building was
literally pierced with windows on
the east and the front, and it
looked as if the angry flames
would send long tongues of fire out
of these openings as if to get hold
on other buildings.
The house adjoining it was one
story brick and the flames Tapped
over it, but did not catch it as the
tin roof did not offer it the kind OF
material to ignite. The two fire
companies kept constant streams
pouring in at the windows and after
a long fight, subdued the angry
flames.
The furniture and bedding and all
kitchen furniture was consumed
and will entail a heavy loss on Mr..
Tierney and his family, as they
have been years in accumulating
this property of household furni-
ture.
We learn that Mr.. Hargett had
81, 500 insurance ou the building and
that Mr.. Tierney did not carry any
whatever.
The walls of the building are all
intact, not a crack being made
from the heat and we learn that
the building can be fixed up very.
easily for the amount insured for.
The East side fire company dam
aged its hook and ladder truck in
going to the fire. 1t seems they
had it tied on behind the hose car
riage and the coupling broke and
the light truck loaded with ladders
ran on to the curb in front of Sharp
& Brewers and was broken about
the front part. 1t can be easily
mended, however, and all will soon
be in good shape again.
This is the first fire we have had
on Broad street in many months,
and we trust the record though
broken will drop back and that
many more months will elapse be-
fore the fire companies are again
called out.
