II nat watching game ono night q
friends house in st. Nioholas avennA
New York. in which only intimate
friends were playing, and two Of them
were ladies. - said an old poker player
recently: II did not Join, a. there wsse
dx at the table, and don't like . game
with seven in. The limit was 8 cents.
There wasn't player in the game who
knew enough Of card manipulation 10
deal crooked hand, and there want
one there who would have done IL ~un-
der temptation. And, moreover, there
wasn't anything like temptation.
yet one woman In that game held q
succession Of hands that would have
made fortune for an ordinarily rood
player II he were lucky enough TO hold
them in stiff game. Twas amusing
myself by noticing her essentially fem.
inine style m play when abe began sud-
denly holding hushes. Five times in
succession ahe held . flush before any
special remark was made 3Of course
there were the usual chatter and chsfI-
ing. but when she showed down the
nth flush in five deals there were . gen.
eral outburst Of comment and . contss-
sion by her that it didn't seem canny.
The next hand she held nothing. Then
she got a four flush and filed. Then
she got q pat flush, then, drawing to
the ace and king Of spades, she got
three more spades. The next hand was
nothing, and the next was a pat flush.
"By this time I was excited myself,
as was everybody in the game, and /
made a memorandum Of the last II
hands and began jotting down each
hand as she held it In SO consecutive
hands she held ~ dushes. None Of the
other 8 hands held even pair. Five Of
the ~ were pat hands, nine times she
drew one card, eight times she drew
two. three times she drew three and
twice she drew four. At: length the
lucky lady grew 90 nearly hysterioal
that her husband made some excuse 10
break up the game. I was sorry It had
to be done, too, for WANTED to zee how
long such run would continue, but
the lady has told me since that she new
er before or since had any similar expe-
Eience. though she plays frequently. . -

NOT TOO STRONG.

|
tell us that The Progresses is occa-
ionally too strong in it's language
in writing on public questions, and
especially so in writing on the at
titude of our Nation in placing the
monied interest above loyalty and
patriotism. So to these we will
direct attention to the debate that
took place in the United States
Senate on Wednesday last, when
it was reported to that body that
the names of American Consuls in
Cuba, who sent information to the
State Department at Washington
concerning the inhuman treatment
of American citinzens there, had
to be withheld, for fear these Con-
suls would be massacred. And
yet, in the face this, action on the
matter was suspended, because
forsooth! it might interfere with
passage of the tariff bill.
And this report had no party
significance. It was not made for
the purpose of creating sensation
and giving one of the parties an
advantage. Because there was
seen Foraker, the Treating Re-
publican of Ohio, and Morgan the
intrepid Democrat of Alabama,
on the same side of the question;
and the former was SO emphatic
as to declare that our government
should send war ships to Cuba, if
the reports be true.
No friends! The Progress is not
too strong. AS matter Of fact
there is not foreign Nation un-
. der the sun that has any respect
for the United States government.
. There was time when all coun-
ries admired us when they want
ed to do right; feared us when in
, clined to do wrong. Then the
American flag was an emblem OF
chivalry. a symbol of protection
Z to all who claim our soil rs their
home, by birth or naturalization.
. Then an insult to our Nation: q
= persecution of our citizens in a
t foreign country meant an imme-
: diate apology and repation' or q
declaration of war. But now-"O
shame! where is thy blush?'-the
= first thing that is considered is,
t can we afford to resent that insult,
I to protect him in his rights and

A 16-Year-OId Girl has
Nervous Prostitution
THE REvIvIFYING EFFECTS OF A PROPER
NERVE FOOD DEMONSTRATED.

Several months ngo, Miss Cora Watrous,
the siSteen-y car-old daughter Of Mr.. |. G.
Watrous, locomotive fireman, of 81 Clarion
Street, Bradtnrd, Pcnna., was seized with u
nervous disorder which threatened to end
her life. The first symptom Of the ailment
was u loss Of appetite. For some little time
Miss Watrous had no desire to eat and COM
planned Of feeling Of extreme lnssitude.
This was followed by severe pains in the
head. For !hrec weeks the young lady was
nearly crnzed with n terrible headache and
nothing could be procured to give her relief.
Finally, after trying numerous remedies,
n physician was called and began treating
the patient. He said the trouble was
caused by Impoverished blood but after
several weeks of his treatment the young
lndy's condition had not improved and the
parents decided TO procure the services of
another physician. In the meantime Miss
Various nervousness had increased the
pains in her head had grown more severe
and the sufferers parents had almost given
up hope of her recovery.
II was nj this time that Mr.. WRtrous heard
Of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
He found that the pills were highly recon-
mended for nervous disorders and concluded
to give them trial. box OF the pills was
purchased and before they had all been taken
there was marked improvement in the
girls condition. Aiter half dozen boxes
had been used, the young lady'S appetite had
returned, the pain in her head had ceased
and she was stronger than at any time pre-
vious to her illness.

omitted Tor pain, TO Facilitate moving
about them in watering and spraying.
Fine manure is pnt between rows for a
mulch and to add fertility. The plants
are kept in this bed about a month or
six weeks. Meanwhile they are watered
as often as necessary, and sprayed with
bordeaux mixture once n week TO keep
them free from blight. When ready to
set ont. the ground is soaked about tho
plants, and the latter are taken up in
mans and carried to the field. While in
this bed new roots start ont on all sides
of the old ones Gig -. These cling
to the soil, and when transplanted earth
is taken along with the plants, and they
grow right along,
The advantages claimed for this plan
are as follows: II you set plants out
permanently in April, the ground can
not be properly prepared because it is
too wet Set out so early, they unpar-
emily stand still and become thuru lilly
infested with leaf blight, but the weeds
do not fail to grow. The new method
permits the blowing Of the patch and
its working over with h0rrows and cul.
tivators for about six weeks before set.
ting the plants in the permanent patch
All weed seeds are destroyed, and If the
land is infested with grubs they arc
brought to the surface, where birds pick
them up. The time of setting the plants
in permanent beds is about June in
New York state.
The other advantages of the plan are
ease of spraying, the plants all being
concentrated in n small area, and the
transfer of the work of setting the plants
in permanent patch from the busy time
of early spring to that of comparative
leisure in early June A man will "heel
in" or set closely together 10, 900 plants
in day, while to set out permanently
an ordinary man can handle only about
9. 600 plants

Sow the seed of hardy anuuals out
doors US soon as the soil is warm, dry
and friable. Some hardy ANNALS, like
peoples, are best planted in the fall, says
Gardening, authority for the following:
The half hardy ANIMALS are best start
ed in hotbeds or greenhouses in flats or
pots and in light soils, but there are
some of these that can be sown outdoors
by waiting until warmer weather, say
the latter part Of May; but their time of
blooming is delayed over those grown
under glass.
Hardy and half hardy perennials that
bloom the first year from seed have TO
be treated as tender ANNALS in order to
get item strong enough to bloom. Hardy
perennials Of tho more common kinds
having large seeds, can be sown in the
open border at any time from April to
June or in the fall, but those with small
seed had better be sown in hotbed or
cold frame, using in all cases where the
seed is small fine soil. While many
perennials germinate as quickly as an
annual, some require a much longer
time, some even II year.

Pierce Of Ohio and some others have
had satisfactory results is attracting at
tention. BY this new method, instead
of setting the plants into permanent

close together, about 90 plants to the
linear foot, then shaded from the direct
rays of the sun for few days. Here is
the whole story as told in The Farm

A result Of the New York Worlds
poll o, democratic organizations, which
shsws undiminished love for the defeated
casdidate OF the party in tie late cleo
tioo. our eastern contemporaries should
wipe their glasses and make another
study Of Mr.. Bryan.
Usually man who has lead his party to
deeeat occupies but small space in the
affections OF the state and local politi-
clans who have shared only dissapoint-
msnt with him. These latter are ever
ready 10 use the pretext OF failure as an
exfinguisher on the man who led the
way TO it.
But Bryan was not an ordinary figure
head in the recent battle OF the ballots.
He was forcetul personality as well as
ths representative Of a declaration Of
party principles. Not in a generation
csstainly has a young man SO suddenly
snd brilliantly gone forth to captivate
IL hearts Of his countrymen and never
. eAndidate for the presidency develop
"a such combination OF pleasing at
tributes as did Mr.. Bryan.
Youth, manly appearance, pleasing ad-
dqss. marvellous eloquence. courage, and
eson the isolation Of greatness, all ap-
pAlk5xto the hearts and imAginations
Of voters. From start 70 finish he had
no rivals to dim the glory Of the work he
accomplished. This makes it appear as
though he did not have adequate assist
ance. And yet We know the brains and
eloluence of three great parties were
taxed to aid him, and We have heard
OF not one who professed to serve and
sought to iniure.
1t needed not this last homage OF great
ness shown by the Worlds poll to teach
careful observers that Mr.. Bryan is a
great man, great already in demoustrat
ell eloquence. tact, resourcefulness and
vim. prospectively much greater, stand
as he does on the threshold Of the years
Of real achievements and with every
attribute OF character as well as sintellect
tilted Tor the highest destiny.-LeadviIle
