WASHINGTON'S BOYHOOD.

Something of His Early Training, Ills
 Requirements and His Love of Mastery.
 A boy who was much at Mount Yer. non and at MT. FairfaX's seat, Belvoir, might expect to see not little that was worth seeing of the life of the col ony. George was kept at school until he was close upon 16; but there was ample vacation time for visiting. Mrs. Washington did not keep him at her apron strings. He even lived, when it was necessary, with his brother Angus tine, at the old home on Bridges creek, in order to be near the best school that was accessible, while the mother was far away on the farm that lay upon the Rappahannock. Mrs. Washington saw to it, nevertheless, that she shoul.l not lose sight of him altogether. When he was IA it was proposed that he should be sent to sea, as so many lads were, no doubt, from that maritime province; but the prudent mother preferred he should not leave Virginia, and the schooling went on as before = the schooling of books and manly sports. Every lad learned to ride--to ride colt or horse, regardless of training, gait or temper-in that country, where no one went afoot except to catch his mount Tn the pasture. Every lad, black or white. bond or free, knew where to find and how to take the rowing game in the for ests. And young Washington, robust boy that he was, not to be daunted while that strong spirit sat in him which he got from his father and mother alike, took his apprenticeship on horseback and in the tangled woods with characteristic zest and ardor.

He was above all things else a capa.

He was above all things else capa- ble executive boy. He loved mastery. and he relished acquiring the most eff fective means of mastery in all prac- tical affairs. His very exercise books used at school gave proof of it. They were filled, not only with the rules, formulae, diagrams and exercises of surveying, which he was taking spe- cial pains to learn, at the advice of his friends, but also with careful copies of legal and mercantile papers, bills of exchange, bills oi sale, bonds, inden- lures, land warrants, leases, deeds and wills, as if he meant to be 0 lawyers or a merchants clerk. It would seem that, passionate and full of blood as he was, he conned these things as he studied the use and structure of his fowling-piece, the bridle he used for his colts. his saddle-girth, and the best ways of mounting. He copied these forms of business as he might have copied Dev- erley's account of the way fox or pos sum or beaver was to be taken or the wild turkey trapped. The men he most admired, his elder brothers, Mir. Fair. fax, and the gentlemen planters who were so much at their houses, were most of them sound men of business, who valued good surveying as much as they admired good horsemanship and skill in sport. They were their own merchants, and looked upon forms of business paper as quite as useful as blows and hogsheads. Careful exercise in such matters might we'll enough accompany practice in the equally formal minuet in Virginia. And so this boy learned to show in almost every thing he did the careful precision of the perfect marksman.-Woodrow Wilson, in Harper's Magazine.

A PRACTICAL STATESMAN.

George Washington as Model Man of
 Business, Order and Law-Trut hful, Just,
 Humane.
 Washington was eminently prac- tical statesman. His mind was of the solid, practical order. In the Old Sout h church in Boston have seen, in his own bold and clear handwriting, the expense accounts which he kept in the revolution, down to the shillings and the pence. He was no theorist, the author of no new idea or system in gov crnment. He left to Jefferson to enunciate the great ideas of liberty in the Declaration of Independence and to Hamilton to inaugurate our great system of finance. But when it came to practical administration and execu :. tive duty he was model of business, of order aud law. Here his great rule and guide was the conscientious per formance of public duty. Naturally conservative in his ideas. the suprem

his obligation to the people and to the law, but he was ever mindful of the still higher obligation to the principles of justice and humanity. To be truth ful, to be just, to be humane-these were the bright jewels in his crown of character. It is. a fact most interesting and impressive now to recall, after all our great troubles and conflict over the slavery question, that he left his solemn testimony against that institution in words which ought to have been needed by his countrymen. As early as I7s6, just after the revolution, he wrote: There is no man living who wishes more sincerely than do to see a plan adopted for the abolition of slavery. But there is but one proper and ef- fectual mode by which it can be &C., complished and that is by legislative authority, and this, so far as my suf- frage will go, will never be wanting"
 And these noble words he put into practical effect by the emancipation of his own slaves by will, humanely pro- viding for the support of the aged and infirm among them, and giving the most explicit and peremptory direc- tions that those too young to support themselves should "be taught to read and write and brought up to some use- ful occupation"-and this to be charge upon his estate.-Hon. Charles s. May, in Detroit Free Press.

Deafness Cannot De Curea

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mu- cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal con. dit.on, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inAamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

A LEGACY OF DISEASE.
Veterans of the War Repaid in
 Sickness.
Abasha Risk Oniy Lives Because He Persevered-Sunere Since the
 War With Kidney Disease.

From the News. St. John, Kansas.
 livery citizen or ot. John, kansas. ,s ac. ouainted with Abasha Risk, one of the "OId Veterans" of the late war and resident of this city. A few months ago he was com. plcte physical wreck, from kidney trouble and diarrhOea, almost unable to get around at all. Your correspondent, who had learned he had found relief, meeting him on the street recently, asked if he wouldn't give him all the facts, as he was interested, as were also all his friends. Mir. Risk said general and his old comrades in particular. (who he knew were suffering from com. plaints similar to his), know what had bene. fted him.
 He then made the following statement;
 II had been suffering for years from a complication of diseases, among them kid. ney and liver trouble and chronic diarrhoea. The greatest trouble of all, however, was the complete wreck of my nervous system, resulting. from my service in the army. 1 was, in fact, in Q most terrible and deplor- able condition. 1 tried every remedy could hear of without the least beneficial results, until saw testimonial of an "old veteran" who was in the same regiment with me during the war (with whom was well acquainted), stating that he had been cured of similar complaint by the use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. l had almost given up hope, but concluded at last to give Pink Pills trial, as they might possibly help me. l began using them and soon commenced to feel slightly better; my i'm. provement was very slow, however, but still it was noticeable, and this was encouraging. In the course of about three weeks my con dition was vastly improved. To the present time l have taken l3 boxes of Pink Pills. and can truthfully say I believe am CT. tirely cured of my liver and kidney trouble, and nearly so of my diarrhoea. My nervous trouble, too, is so much better that I am sure cure will be entirely perfected in short time.
 My wife also used the Pink Pills with great benefit. Her blood was in an ex- tremely bad condition. Since using the pills, however, this condition has entirely disap. reared. l consider Dr. Williams Pink Pills the most marvellous discovery of the age. I cannot say too much in their praise"
