Color Baths for Nervous Women.

There have been sun baths and mud baths, sulphur baths and Turk ish baths, Russian baths and all cohol baths, but the color bath is the latest novelty and q positive fad among women with sensitive nerves. Color baths are said to reach closer to the real nerve tissue than any other means of cure. They nre taken in small compartments, like vapor baths. At the back of the patient is an aperture where a large slide of col ored glass may be inserted or removed at will. Directly behind the slide in each bath is huge electric arc light that buzZes and glows in it's white globe and turns the bath into miniature lighthouse. The colors are chosen as one might choose medicines, and the patient sits bathed in glory of the shade calculated to quiet her nerves or stimulate her vitality. The treatment lasts from one to three-quarters of an hour, and then follows 15 minutes rest in a darkened room.

pretty fashion is the abrazo with which friends greet--a delicate. embrace, ac- companied by a caressing pat on the shoulder, and light kisses on either cheek.
 A famous type of the beauty of her race is Sonora Carmen Rubio de Diaz wife of Gen. Porfrio Diaz, president of the Mexican republic. She is daugh- ter of the late Romero Rubio, who at the time of his death held the i'm portant post of minister of the interior. She is Gen. Diaz' second wife, and was married to him in her early youth. She is still young woman, though she has filled the position of first lady of the land" for many years, and witk marked success. She has the nationa! dark eyes, olive complexion and wealth of lusterless black hair. She is of mid. dle height and slender. graceful bTild, and her manners are very winning. As is the universal custom among fhe wealthy classes in Mexico, she orders her gowns from Paris. but her dress is always of quiet elegance. Her tact and brilliant abilities are influential factors in political and social circles. In Mexico the presidents wife never gives public receptions, and her social duties are less onerous than those of our own white house; but Sonora Diaz seems to consider that her elevated sta. ton holds her pledged to the we'll be. ing of her people, and devotes herself assiduously to charitable work. She has founded several institutions for the aid of working women, and for the helpless and homeless. Dona Car. mencita, as she is familiarly called, is regarded everywhere as the very im- personation of gracious benevolence.
 Her sister, Senorita Sofia Romero Rubio, has a charming face and pleas ing manners and has many American friends.-Munsey's Magazine.

WHEAT GOES UP, SILVER DOWN.
The Grain in Greater Demand Than the
 Metal.

The Grain in Greater Demand Than the
 Metal
 The reason silver does not go np in price with wheat at this time is plain enough. The people of the British Isles do not want silver to eat. There is no known way by which silver can be cooked and eaten. It cannot be ground into flour, nor made into bread or cake. The entire silver product of the world might be landed on the wharfs of Liy- erpool or London without adding one cents worth to the stock of food on which the British people must draw for their daily sustenance for the next 12 months. It follows that, even though all the wheat crops of other countries failed in toto, leaving our American wheat crop as the only source of supply the British people would not pay one cent per ounce more for our silver, or for any other country's silver, on that account. Wheat might go to famine prices in England, and would do so in the case supposed, yet silver would not go to famine prices, because, for the purpose of averting famine, silver is as useless and valueless as coal or iron. The price of silver never has ruled, and never can rule, the price of wheat. There is no price relation between the two products. Silver has gone down for the same reason that wheat has gone down in the past 25 years, because there has been more of it produced than could be sCld at the old price of 1871.
 There is no power in the government nor in legislation to make things that are constantly being produced in greater quantities and at lower cost sell for as high prices as when they were produced in far less abundance and at much greater cost. If our farmers or our wage-earners allow themselves to be tricked with the promise that the government can raise the price of their

Ex-sPeAkER CRISP DEAD.
The Noted Georgian Passes Away at At
 lanta, Ga.-His Career.

The Noted Georgian Passes Away at At.
 lanta, Ga.-His Career.
 ATLANTA, Ga, Oct 2A.-Charles F. Crisp. the ex-speaker of the house of representatives, died here yester. day very suddenly and unexpectedly. He had long been troubled with heart disease, but had not recently been in bad health.
 A Sketch of Ills Career.
 Charles Frederick Crisp was born in Shef. field, Eng, January 29. is45, while his parents were on theatrical trip abroad, both being actors. He obtained his education in the Georgia public school and served in the confederate army from the outbreak of the rebellion till he was made a prisoner of war in 1864. At the close of the war he studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1866, and in 1872 was appointed solicitor-general of the southwestern judicial district of Geor- gia. In 1877 he was appointed judge of the su. perior court. which position he filled for sev- eral years. In 1882 he resigned to go to con. gress
 The principal work done by Mir Crisp during his first term in congress, which went for noth- ing at the time was to apply himself most dili- gently to acquiring an extended knowledge of the business of the house. The technical am- intuition thus stored up is what availed him so much later on. especially when leading the democratic minority in defense Of those demo- crats fairly elected whom the republicans tried to turn out in the last congress.
 When MT Crisp's third term in congress be. gan with the meeting of the Fiftieth congress- the house realized that Georgia had an able one to represent her. It was supposed that on the assembling of the Fiftieth congress in 1887 MT. Crisp would be appointed chairman of one of the committees upon which he had served An accidental happening, however, prevented 1t. For the second time in the history Of con- gress the seat of the speaker was contested, and in this case Mir. Carlisle declined to appoint the committee on elections. After consideration it was agreed that nine members should be elected by the democrats and six by the repub- licans The democratic caucus unanimously selected MT. Crisp 10 act as chairman of that committee. Could he have foreseen the op- portunity which was here presented to him he would have welcomed it with delight As it was, he accepted it as a duty, believing that he had temporarily got of from the road to distinction
 Mir Crisp was chosen speaker of the Fifty Second congress after such a long and rather animated contest with aspirants Of his own party in caucus that the election was not made until the houses session began. When the Fifty-Third congress convened he was re. elected without opposition.

Sonora Diaz Is Famous Type of Her

 There is an air of dolce far niente about the life of 8 Mexican woman. There is no breathless scramble for distinction, and any effort to outvie her neighbors is considered essentially vul- gar. Many graceful little social GUS toms brighten the path of everyday intercourse. Among these is the uni- versal use of the Christian name be- tween acquaintances and friends, a familiarity which is emphasized by the affectionate diminutive.

 The working costume of the intrepid artist consists of short serviceable skirt of blue serge, jumper" of the same material and Tam O Shanter cap pulled well down over the face to keep out the rays of the sun. In manipulating her brushes, Miss Way mack wears pair of coarse mittens, 'n characteristically feminine fact, just as are the dainty patent leather boots that encase her small feet. Her ap- parel is always scrupulously neat, scarcely paint speck being noticeable on her garments.
 Miss Waymaek has been pursuing her unique career ss sign painter since 1893, and has travelled more and further than is the case with most busi- ness women. She is comedy blonde, and has enjoyed good common school education. Being bright conversa- tionalist and a clever pianist, she is much sought after in the quiet social circles of Bellefontaine, where she lives with her aged mother.-N. Y. Sunday Journal

Wonderful Results of pr. Connaway's Ef-
 forts at Columbia.
 COLUMBIA, Mo, Oct 24.-Dr. w. ]. Connaway, of the state university, has achieved some fine results in his ex- periments with the Texas fever. It will be remembered that in connection with the state board of agriculture the experimental station has been conduct ing these tests with Texas cattle. Heretofore the Texas ticks produced the disease upon native cattle within l2 days, and. the cattle died inside of l5 days. Dr. Connaway made an anti-toxine from the serum of immunized Texas cattle, which was then injected into a native COW. A suf- fcient number of ticks to produce the disease were then placed upon her, but after 35 days she shows no effect whatever, but is healthy and growing heshy This experiments success will be invaluable to cattle producers.

ore. When silver was S1.29 an ounce we were able to pay SiO0,000 in dividends annually. When it went down to 50 cents we could just pay our way. When it reached 75 cents we lost money, and so we closed the mine, waiting until the overproduction of gold would again make conditions favorable.
 Twill Bryan be elected? Not at all. He hasn't the remotest chance. At first many people were with him, misled by delusions. Now they have had time to think, and rhe battle has been lost for some time. I know MT. Bryan well. He's very smart fellow. He's always had his fingers in the public crib; that is, he's born politician. don't think he believes word he breaches. cal! him q calamity howler. He relies upon talking for a living, and, of course. busi- ness men and the intelligent voters sooner or later find him out.
 "I know Teller very well, too. Used to work side by side with him in Col orado. He stood in the water with his pick and we were fellow-laborers."
 Isn't Mr Teller an example of a man with silver interests who does be- lievc in ire, silver?" was asked.
 "No; it is perfectly true he hasn't any silver mine. He never was a success at silver mining or any other kind Of min ing. His ability lies in the same direc- ton as Bryan's. He's politician and has made his living by talking. He, too. is smart. plausible fellow. He always was plausible. I supported him for a good many offices. Now that he seeks personal glory by becoming a calamity iowler. of course I must repudiate him. Why, I remember when gold was d drug on the market and silver was way up. All these troubles will be regulated soon by the miners themselves. Gold min ing now occupies the attention of min CTS. When there is plenty of gold our mine and other mines will turn out enough silver to pay big dividends again. The silver mine owners, in my opinion. htve no reason to worry. Their troubles will soon be over" r."-Detroit Free Press

WOMAN AND HOME.
WOMAN SIGN PAINTER.

Bhe Is Reputcd to Be Far More Daring
 Than Most Men.
 The newest new woman is Miss Edna Waymack, of Cleveland, o. Hers is the distinction of being the only feminine out of door sign painter in the United States.
 Miss Waymack hesitates at nothing In her line of business, no matter how arduous the work. She has painted huge advertising signs on the face of perilously steep cliffs, task few men would undertake. Many large spaces, such as barn sides, the roofs of houses and the like, scattered all over the country, testify to the ability of this young woman as 8 realistic brush wielder.
 She is perfectly at ease on ladder or Ecaffo!d, and she can scale a taut rope in way to make an old tar blush with envy. Swinging before the precipitous face of mountain, she often works for hours laying on alphabetical color schemes with steady hand and touch that never loses its evenness.
 Miss Waymack has many large con- tracts for big natural canvases which she hopes to fulfill this summer. For the most part, her signs are made in the interests of several large tobacco firms.
 The most daring piece of sign paint ing she has ever undertaken is the let tering on the rough surface of cliff at Bellefontaine, O. This rock looms up above the surrounding meadow for distance of some $50 feet with sheer fall of 300 feet to the base of the cliff. For four days Miss Waymack swung at the top of this dizzy height, spend- ing about eight hours each day on the big sign she had engaged to paint.
 Every day, and all day long, throng of men, women and children gathered nt the foot of the hill watching the woman artist at work in the upper air.
 Miss Waymack is accustomed to this sort of thing, however, and is not the least bit disturbed by the curious crowds that usually watch her opera

To remove these sharp points dip the broom in hot suds and trim it off neatly, thus preserving the square shape.

He washed the dishes, cleaned knives and cooked. All this he did without "surly innuendoes and sudden snarlings."

Eminent Jurists Come to the Rescue of
 Downtroddep Woman.
 Slowly woman is winning her con tested rights. A few months since n Cleveland judge decided in case where the wife has money and the hus- band has none, the former is responsible for the latter's tailor bills, recogniticn of woman's equality before the law that occasioned great rejoicing amoug sulfragists-and tailors. And now comes Judge Gibbons, of Chicago, with q decision in divorce suit even more fin-de-siecle. In the case before his honor, the plaintiff was woman of means, while the husband was pen niless invalid. The husband applied for alimony and was given it, the judge saying that every reason of right, ius- tice and morals is in favor of the pro po- sition that the duties which the hus- band and wife owe to each other are re- ciprocal." The light is breaking. 1t only remains for q second Daniel to come to judgment and give some down trodden husband divorce from his wife on the ground of non-support to fill the brim of woman's cup of joy and give her realizing sense of the new dignity of perfect equality. But when the law begins to make non-voting wives pay alimony to their voting hus- bands, tit is about time that even % blind- folded goddess as Justice sees that woman is real creature who has an in- liyidual existence. ce.-Womankind.
