How 10 Treat a Wife.
(From Pacific Health Journal.)

First, get a wife; second, be patient.
You may have great trials and perpleX-
tiles in your business, but do not there
5ore. carry TO your home a cloudy or
contracted brow. Your wife may have
trials, which, though of less magnitude.
may be hard for her to bear. A kind
word, tender look, will do wonders in
chasing from her brow all clouds of
:,loom.-To this we would add always
keep bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy IN the house. 1t is the best
and is sure to be needed sooner or later.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear, There is only one
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infia med
ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We VIII give One Hundred Dollars for any
case Of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for

Mrs. G. f. Witter read the following
poem:
IN MEMORIAM.
Dead! Did you say our sister is dead?
Oh, no! That can not be!
Though her spirit from earth has departed
And her form no more we can see.
Only her earth's journey is eaded,
Just to reach her Fathers home;
Only to reap and gather blossoms
From the seeds that she has sown.
There the roses are all thOrnless,
There is there no tears to flow;
Fond ones mourn the dear departed
AS they follow here below.
While she dwelleth in the presence
Of the Majesty on high,
Who hath said in words immortal
That "the soul shall never die!'
Unto her the vail is lifted,
And to her the light is shown.
And to her there's no more darkness,
All is brightness where she's gone.
Thus it eveTmore behoOves us
Not to scatter tares while here,
But to live life of goodness;
Doing right without fear.
Knowing when we come to harvest
Seeds we've scattered on life's way,
They will yield our souls profit
That will all our cares repay.
Now as tears and smiles are blending,
AS we near the land of rest,
We know our Fatherll not forget us
If we try to do our best.
And when life for us is ended
And We reach the blissful shore,
There'u be songs of glad reunion
And blessings evermorC.
The meeting was closed by singing
Chow Gentle Gods Commands"

Something Wrong.

While Colonel Powell was explor-
ing tho canyons of the Colorado his
camp was visited one day in winter
by an Indian hunter and trader
named johnson. He had no fixed
home, but informed Colonel Powell
that he intended the next spring to
plant corn, potatoes and other vege-
tables on a certain long island in the
Uinta river
"You will be along there in the
summer, he said to Colonel Powell.
Stop and help yourselves to any.
thing you wish.
True enough, on one of the early
days of July the Powell party came
TO the island and on looking about
came upon garden. 1t was in a
sad condition, having received no
care since it was plante The sea-
son was early, moreover, but one OF
the men suggested that potato tops
were good green's, and in their
strong desire for something to vary
their salt meat fare they gathered
quantity and cooked them for din
ner.
Soon afterward one man and then
another was taken with nausea, vic.
lent pains and other symptoms Of
poisoning till the whole company
lay tumbling about the ground
groaning. Colonel Powell was real
ly alarmed and administered emet-
les to as many as would take them.
By the middle of the afternoon all
hands were much better. Then, as
Colonel Powell says, Jack Summer
recorded in his diary:

A LONDON IDEA.
Cooperative Store For All Connected
With Army and Navy.

Cooperative Store For All Connected
With Army and Navy.
The army and navy store is one
of the curiosities of London. Tt had
q very small beginning Tho foun-
dation of it was years ago, when
some naval officer, wishing to have
a superior quality of tea. arranged
with some of his fellow officers to
take part of a consignment. The
plan proved so satisfactory in this
instance that it was tried with other
choice commodities in bulk, and
finally a club was formed for the
purchase of things in quantity and
for distribution to members at cost
price. The club grew and extended
to the army, so that now every Off
Ger and noncom. of the army and
navy is q subscribed mem Der of the
company or club. One who is eligi-
BILE, having paid his fee and dues,
receives q mum bered ticket with his
name on it, which Is his certificate
of membership, and the original
shareholders draw dividends - for
though prices are comparatively
cheap in the great establishments
profit is made. Dealing is strictly by
mum ber-that Is to say, the clerk or
salesman with whom you have been
preparing a purchase will produce
his tablets and before taking entry
of the articles designated for the
purchase will ask, his pencil poised
expectantly, Number, if you
please?" You reply with a number.
Usually this suf1ices, and the check
is made out, but not infrequently
the name is asked for il addition,
and then the name corresponding TO
the number must be given.
1t happens that a goodly part OF
the trade of the stores is transacted
with persons who are neither mem
bers nor entitled to be members, but
being friends of members are &C
corded the privilege of trading on
the numbers of those friends. Deal.
ing at the stores is by cash or depos-
it-that is to say, you can deposit
f10 or $50 or more and trade against
that, the cashier sending you a no.
tioe when you have reached the linn
it. You can get anything you want
in the stores-dry goods. meat, gro
ceries, provisions, coal, furniture,
linen, millinery, tailoring, tapestry,
etc. You can book a servant or hire
a carriage, prepare for wedding or
arrange for a funeral; in short, from
the tea caddy of a few years ago has
grown great establishment of uni
versal supply. The top floor has
refeotory, where one may get q
lunch unexcelled in London, and as
the stores are thronged from 10
O'Clock in the morning until Q
o'clock in the afternoon the refresh
ment room is generally fully occu.
pied. Limited to the service of tick
ct holders, the stores may be said to
have an exclusive patronage, and il
is 1.-THE proper thing to trade at the
stores. Letter.

on THEIR HONOR.
Tranac OniciaIs Make an Unusual and
Unique Agreement.

In the absence OF an association that
will take the place of the Western and
Transcortinental Associations the traffic
officials Of the Chicago-St. Paul and CHS
cago-Missouri river lines have entered In
10 an agreement for the maintenance OF
rates, which is said TO be the strongest
and most unusual agreement ever signed
by railroad men. II is unique in that II
comprises less than fifty words. and
contains no clause providing for penalties
for the pooling of business or divisions of
any kind. The agreement was reached
a day or two ago at Chicago and IL re
suited from the cutting In East and
West bound rates. which has been going
on for some time past. The agreement
Is as follows:
Resolved, That we hereby pledge our
sacred word of honor as gentlemen that
We will hereafter absolutely maintain
regular tariff rates on all freight, and
Will make no other divisions with COM
Meeting lines than those regularly author
lied
That is all there is to II. but II is looked
upon as an ironelad agreement. and there
is a feeling that the officials viii not vio
