MET AFTER THIRTY YEARS

Colonel John Whitney, Department
Commander of the Kansas. Grand Army
of the Republic, and Major "Tom"
Anderson, Of Topeka, who is connected
with the Rock Island Road, were in
the city May the - making arrange
ments for headquarters for the Kansas
delegation to the National Encampment
They stopped at the Hotel Ryan, were
they were visited by number of Grand
Army of the Republic men, and later
man walked up to Colonel Whitney
and said; Hello, John!' The Colonel
extended his hand, but confessed
that the other had little the advantage
of him. When the latter explained
that he was his brother, whom he had
not seen for thirty lone years, Colonel
Whitney's embarrassment gave way to
joy, there was pathetic little scene
for a moment. This brother lives in
Minneapolis, and having heard that
the Colonel was coming to st. Paul,
came over to meet him.-St. Paul

(To BE CoNTINUED.)
A FACIAL EXERCISE.

Half the beauty of a face, lies in its
expression. No face is really Leauti-
full or attractive unless it has pleas
ant, lovable expression. How many
faces we see, perfect in Quilting, beau
tiful in every feature, and yet lacking
that most potent of all charms, a sweet
expression.
We know that the masculine sex is
amenable to the effects of beauty: but
beauty is "only skin Deep" and have
seen many pretty girl passed by for
her palmer sister, and why? Because
the palmer face had more expression
in it. was more attractive as it was
sympathetic and sweet.
There is no girl, however plain, who
may not enter the lists with her pref
tiest compeer if she tries to cultivate
a pleasant and happy look. She will
possess, then, an attraction which is
doubly strong because felt rather than
known. Beauty attracts all, but when
We find plain woman fascinating the
charm is far greater, because We can
not tell why she attracts us. And this
facial expression is a beauty which
does not fade with years, but goes on
increaing. And kind sweet express
ion is the outcome of a sweet life
If you want to soften your face try
little spiritual exercise. Look at
yourself in the glass. If the corners of
your mouth are down, and you are an
unhappy looking object, elevate your
expression. Think of the pleasantest
thing that ever happened to you: the
kindest thing that was ever done for
you; the merriest time you ever had in
your life; send out the most generous,
the sweetest the most helpful thought
you can think to your friends.

FROM SIXTEEN TO TWENTY.

A young man addressed to Edward
w. Box the query: "Why is it that in
SO many cases: | might almost say the
majority of cases, a quiet, we'll behaved
earnest minded, religious young mans
seriousness is IGNORED by so many
girls (between sixteen and twenty,)
and the company of giddy, idle, sense
less youths preferred?" and in the
Ladies' Home Journal editorial reply is
made. Mr.. Box contends that girls at
that age take few things seriously and
are not given to looking upon the ser
ious side attracts them. at is only
natural that to girl of such an age
the young man of bright conversation
flippant and meaningless though that
talk may be, has an indefnable attrac-
ton. She would rather have it that
he can dance well than that he can re-
cite Emerson to her. 1t is the dane
ing time of her life, and not the Emer-
sonian period. She is apt to notice
a mans clothing more than his charac-
ter. She likes the man better who
pays her pretty compliment than the
one that says something serious. The
young man who pays her graceful at
tentions is pleasing to her; she does
not seek to penetrate beyond the mere
compliment. And why should she?
Young men are simply one form other
amusement; she does not take them
any more seriouslys than she does any
thing else. The young man Of presen-
table appearance, who dresses well and
has a command of the small talk of Sc
ciety,. is her girlish Jack-in-thebox.
The more atten ion he pays her, the
more he flatters her, the better she is
apt to like him. The earnest young
man who has ambi. IT, who studies and
learns, whose talk is sensible rather
than light, is bit tiresome to her.
She may admire his high purposes so
far as she can grasp them. She may
respect him. But if she is going to a
party she does not want his company.
She passes him by for the other fellow
who is graceful in the dance. And is
she to be blamed or to be consured for.
this? Not bit of it. While she is
girl she does as natural, healthy girl
should; she lives her years of enjoy
ment and gets as much pleasure out Of
them as she can. For this she is
girl. But if he will watch her after
she counts her years with the figure
two he will observe that slowly but
surely process of gradual develop
ment takes place in the girl whom he
believed to he without thought or rea-
son. And equally sure will be his dis
covery that the companion of her dan
ces is not so eagerly welcome by her as
once he was. He will then gradually
discover that the girl is not the light
minded butterfly that he thought her to
be. She becomes interested in other
things; conversations which bored her
a year or two earlier now begin to have
some meaning for her. She begins to
regard the internal value of things.
She looks at young man from diff
ferent standpoint. The young man
who can simply dance well does not
represent the same thing to her. She
begins to look for something else in the
young men who come to her. The
woman has simply begun to develop;
the girl is ceasing to be-"

JUST WHAT'S NEEDED

Exclaim thousands of people who
have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at
this season of the year, and who have
noted the success of the medicine in
giving them relief from that tired feel
ing, waning appetite and state OF ex-
treme exhaustion after the close con-
finement of a long winter season, the
busy time attendant upon a large and
pressing business during the spring
months and with vacation time yet
some weeks distant. 1t is then that
the building-up powers of Hoods Sar-
saparilla are fully appreciated. 1t
seems perfectly adapted to overcome
that prostration caused by change OF
season, climate or life, and while it
tones and sustains the system, it puri-
fies and vita Lies the blood.

The army worm is destroying every

whole communities have engaged in
the work of destruction of the pests.
The plan adopted is to dig a ditch
(plowing deep furrow) making the
sides perpendicular-ifp possible ha wing
the burrows wider at the bottom than
at the top-and also having holes every
few feet in the furlows. The worms
are unable to crawl the sides of the fur

"MORBUS SABBATICUS,"

"MORBUS SABBATICUS."
BY J. B. NEFF
This is the scientific" name
Of disease, that acts the same
On all whom it attacks,
1t can be cured though not by self
And yet much less by psltry pelt,
Nor by ingenious quacks.
Church members most victims are,
Which seems to be most singular,
That these should be assailed.
But so 1t is;-when most extreme
The weather hot or cold would seem,
Then has it most prevailed.
Statistics also plain would show
And who would say that they don't know
Males most the victims are;
The family head, some bold declare,
Is always sure the worst to fare
And that quite regular.
The strangest art, we all mlStsty
When services commence;
When bells sound out in sweetest chime,
That for the service now it's time,
Then pain is most intense.
The symptoms vary; but it's not known
That they themselves have ever shown
Before the m,rning meal;
Sleep, in fact and the appetite,
Are always sure to he all right,
Though patients 'weak" may feel.
The patient, though. rests easy soon,
Especially 50, when it's near noon
When services are DER;
From then till night he feels quite we'll
When there may come another spell,
To make him sick and sore.
By afternoon it's usual so,
That Oh a-walk OF ride he'll 90,
Or take "cycle spin;"
Or if not this, to some extent,
The Sunday papers give content,
If weather keeps him in.
Some times social game Of cards
If certain friends have no regards
For this, the Sabbath day
In talks, polite, with friend,
He may the afternoon misspend,
Instead OF watch and pray"
THIS malady most prevalent grows
As they attest who watch it close,
When Sunday comes around
The cause, they say, is wOrldliness;
And every patient must confess,
Without the cure he's found
The rem..dy's religion, sure,
But fervent prayer effects the cure;
These antidotes hell good.
While literature sacred kind,
Which edifies the heart and mind
Is xppetizing food.

suor1n up the river, q gust of wind and
rain that shook the building came
along, and they were in the midst of the
storm. When next they saw the river
and the city below, the storm had
passed, and the rain was falling straight
down. They saw dozens of wrecks
floating down the stream, and on the
other side saw all the steamboats, blown
away from the harbor and piled up
along the bank. Then came the second
storm, followed by the St. Louis Wooden

from their airy observatory. 1t was

hours OF uninterrupted excitement.

mains of an Indian encampment or VII
lage are plainly in evidence. Large
numbers of spearheads, arrowheads and
portions of pottery have been found in
the village.
George w. Wolford stumbled upon it
while exploring the swamp. When Mr..
Wolford discovered the village canoe
was firmly imbedded in the mud and a
cedar full eight inches in diameter was
growing from it. In attempting to ex-
tricate the boat from the roots the dis
coverer unfortunately broke it into sec
tions. A large portion of the remains
of the craft have been carried away by
relic hunters. The canoe in its entirety
measured 16 feet three inchss in length
and had almost four feet beam! Its
great size would seem to indicate that
it was used as war canoe.
Back from the stream, on a little
knoll, were found numerous pieces of
broken pottery and rude cooking uten-
sis. Large pieces of flint were found
imbedded in hard wood that has become
petrified. Perfect arrowheads were I'M
earthed. Numerous mounds which, it
is believed, were the burial places of the
Indians, were found.

She freed q Bear.

A few days ago Miss Grace Duckett,
of Colfax, Wash, had quite an adven-
ture. While returning in the evening
from one of her neighbours, Miss Grace
met a bear. Instead of screaming and
running, she, with the help of her dog,
forced bruin up tree, where she left
him until she could go to one of her
neighbors for help. A. d. McDougall
went with her to the place where the
bear was freed. Miss Duckett herself
cut the tree down, and when it fell they
succeeded in capturing the bear alive.
1t proved to be fine cub, and is very

discovered for 100000, moved to a small
house on an island and buried the money
at places under the house and about
the island, says the Winchester News,
Last week while dying he told his heirs,

was buried. So far they have dug up
$4,000 on the island and $4,000 under

Prospector Takes an Involuntary Journey
Into the Earth. 49,


Edward Gunnison, prospector, while
testpitting for iron near here the other
day, had an adventure that has turned
his hair gray, but at the same time, as he
has discovered subterranean lake full
of apparently blind fish, he figures that
he is ahead, says the Philadelphia
Times. For several weeks past Gunni-
son has been prospecting between this
place and Duluth and has sunk a pit
on the lake shore a few miles north of
here. The other morning, while pursu-
ing his Investigations at a depth of 10
feet, the earth at the bottom of the pit
suddenly gave way, dropping Gunnison
and his pick and shovel into the sub
terranean lake 20 feet below the bottom
of the pit. The water was shallow, and
as soon as Gunnison recovered from his
fright he made an examination of the
cavern inclosipg the lake.
This cavern, Gunnison says, covers
two acres of water; the shores of the
little lake are of rock, which also forms
the walls. The water is clear and cold,
being fed apparently by underground
streams. After long search in the
darkness Gsnnison found that the lake
had an underground outlet into Lake
Superior. This outlet was large enough
for Gunnison to creep through to the
open air. AS memento of his involun-
tary trip into the bowels of the earth
Gunnison brought with him one of the
fish of which he says the lake is full.
This fish resembles the black bass in
some respects. only it is white, and APP
parently blind. 1t is now on exhibition
here.
Two skeletons, probably of Indians.
were found in the cavern in which the
underground lake is located. They were
lying side by side at the mouth of the
passage through which Gunnison crept.
They crumbled to pieces at the touch.

SAW THE TORNADO.
-Four st. Louis BARRIERS Graphic
Description Of the Twister.
Declare That the Big Black Funnel Fol-
lowed Pillar of Fire and That
Fiery Arms Shot Out in
Every Direction.

Up on the top floor of the Wainwright
building there is neat little barber
shop, presided over by Louis Tisch.
The BARRIERS in the building, Tisch, G.
C. Adams, John B. Huppert and A.
Rust saw the storm from start to finish,
and they tell most remarkable story
about it, says the st. Louis Republic.
They say that it was northumberland
cloud such as is commonly pictured as
being the shape of tornado. Each
solemnly swears it was a horizontal
black cloud that moved through the
city with a twisting motion, like a
screw, faster than any railroad train
that ever ran. Preceding the black
cloud was dense yellow cloud that
looked as though its interior was a
mass of flames. From out of this cloud
shot long frey arms in every direction,
and wherever one of these arms struck
something went to pieces.
Tisch compares the cloud to a big SER
pent that wriggled along up in the air
and thrust out multiforked tongue, as
though in anger.
Shortly before the storm broke, Hup-
pert went up on the roof, and came
back with the information that there
was a tornado in sight. Rust followed
him, and came back with confrma-
ton of the report, and then the two bar
beers went out and saw the grand mar
shalling of the storm in the western
skies. When the rain began they came
down into the shop, and the last they
saw as they were coming through the
scuttle was the advance guard of the
tornado as it came in from the south
west.
The barber shop is at the southeast
corner of the building, and all around
it are little windows, round, like the
portfolios in ship. The BARRIERS stood
at the south windows and watched the
tornado from the time 1t appeared, away
OFF to the southwest, until portion of it
rolled up against the building and made
them wish they were somewhere else.
Tsch says they saw houses and bust
ness blocks go down before 1t, their
view of the destruction it was wreaking
being made plain by the yellow cloud
OF fire that preceded the storm proper.
He is sure it crossed the river some dis
lance below Park avenue, switched
around when 1t got nearly to tho nli-
nois shore, and started directly up the
stream. In this he is borne out by the
statements of the others who were
watching 1t.
Just as they were getting ready to
move around to the east windows, In

just been completed. This new rail-
