Influenced and taught by her father, she says planted the seeds with my lit- tie hands. watched the growth which sprang from those seeds, till In later years I picked leaves from them with which I fed my silk worms. The pro- cess of reelng and spinning l accom- plished, and with the strands wove the net inclosed. The net was for a head covering to be worn with ribbons or flowers as taste inclined. With the let ter giving it's history was also sent q piece of white silk of fine texture (not domestic) on which was painted flowers and birds with colors which she had pressed from flowers of her own culti- Vation. The keepsakes are still treas- ured by the niece to whom they were sent, as well as the letter written long before the days of stamps and enve- lopes, giving intimation of primitive times and how wants were met.
 Too often those whose early lives have been cast where natures blessings abound are careless of their influences. Others are among those of choicest cul- ture, their lives a blessing.
 The country home with memory of youth is ever beckoning beacon to those tired of life's busy marts.
 Give the children reared in cities all of outdoor life in the country possible; wander with them when practicable in the wild woods" where the music of dashing waters is mingled with the song of birds nesting in their coverts Natures open book has no finis for those who love her, while on their lives she makes her impress.

The Stock Market Yesterday Was Dull and
 Without Special Feature.

New York, Oct. 1.-The bear cam paign on the stock exchange to-day finds its prototype in that of the illus trious French monarch who led his army up the hill and then led them down again. Only, the anterior man. ouvre on the part of the stock market bears was that of the pretended re- treat in all the panoply of woe and with all the trappings of defeat sound- ing aloud their lamentations and alarms over the dangers that beset the values of stock. In their acute apprehension over the prospective decline in prices they sold numerous stocks which they did not possess and induced some few other persons to sell their holdings. But the large part of the selling proved to be confined to the professional re- actionists.
 The failure to induce any large liqui- dation and the news of widespread rains in the west. breaking the long continued drought admonished the

bears to secure stocks with which to fill the selling contracts they had made, Their buying to cover carried the mar ket back over about the same course 1t had followed so that the net changes are very narrow in almost all cases. This was true even of Chicago Gas, which ranged over more than ? points in very cratic manner and on large transactions. It was true also of Con- solidated Gas, which took one of it's characteristic tumbles of points and then recovered.
 The marked declines of the morning in the southwestern stocks and in the grangers were also largely recovered, many stocks, particularly the grangers, rising above Saturdays level. Statements of railroad earnings for the first week in October received dur ing the day showed continued improve ment. Actual rates for sterling ex- change fell again to 4.S414 for demand and to 4,S2A for sixty days. This is said to be at the gold import point, in spite of the fact that the Bank of Eng land to-day advanced it's price for Am erican eagles to 76 shillings 71a pence against 76 shillings 6A pence at the time last weeks engagements for inn port were made.
 l Rates for time money continued easy aad there was good demand for com mercial paper, which was also in good supply. Notwithstanding the cessation of the bear attack on the market and the subsistence of the apprehensions which have recently beset some of the | traders, the buying was as much con- | fined to the bear element as the selling had been and there was little indica- tion of any resumption of Widespread and affecting interests in the market. 1 Omaha's net gain exceeded point and losses of a point or over were shown by Cotton Oil, Chesapeake and Ohio, Colorado Fuel, Illinois Steel, Con- solidated Gas, Pullman and Oregon Navigation; of points in Rio Grande preferred, 3A in Iowa Central preferred and in Oregon Navigation preferred.

Alertness in Bnsiness.

The successful business man of to- day must needs be alert, or he will not win; all the faculties must be strained to the utmost, and while the excite ment of business life whets the appetite for it, in the end nature demands her pay for being constantly outraged. The business man. after being frequently warned finds himself unable to concen- trate his reasoning power, and his nerve gives way. One of the greatest enemies that business men contend with is sleeplessness. The thought of possible trouble tomorrow drives away sleep tonight, and loss of sleep is destruc- tion.
 The greatest physician and specialist in all nervous and chronic complaints to-day is Dr. Greene of 35 West Four teenth street, New York city. He is great by reason of his discoveries, one of which is the world-famed Nervura and by his unvarying success in treat ing the nervous ills of men and women The beauty and simplicity of operation of Dr. Greene's remedies are most strongly evidenced in their soothing eff feet upon the nerves, permitting the patient to sleep. Wholesome sleep drives out nervousness and pr. Greene s treatment is thorough, and it's effects are permanent. You may consult this distinguished specialist and receive his invaluable advice without cost by call- ing at his office or writing to him a full explanation of your case. Consultation, either by personal call or by letter through the mail, is absolutely free. Don't wait until you are entirely used up, but consult Dr. Greene now.

LESSONS OF THE FADING YEAR. To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Seemingly conscious that absence strengthens friendship where the last recollections are kindly the trees have put on their more gorgeous robes, to cast them at ones feet. The grand old trees as well as those of humber srowth-the vines, too, which have found fostering shelter and support all as they obey natures behest, are si- lent influences tending to lift the wor- shiper of nature up to natures God. The seasons come and go, and with them the lessons of the trees are repeat ed under varied conditions. Happy the childhood that has been passed where natures influences have environed them. They listen to the song of birds and learn to watch for their earliest re- turn, but the winter has not been one of discontent Waiting and watching for the snow, to them it comes laden with wintry sports and enjoyments. but when it's blanks" have vanished and the ponds and brooks are unclaimed it is but another page turned for them, in which they can reyel.
 However thoughtless childhood may have been, natures influences are prized in maturer years. Fortunate the young mind where these influences with parental aid have found Judgment It is seed that has it's fruitage in after life, often developing characters that are a blessing to mankind. Let the little ones have all of country life possible, where natures lessons are taught intu- itively, when in after life memory will recall these earlier scenes and their lm- pressions cherished and thereby charac- ter broadened.
 The seeds of the mulberry planted py the hands of a little girl hundfeu years ago and more are now trees nv ing not very far from this city. inc little girl'' became a woman Of non ored name, which is still cherished, though herself long since passed away. The story as told or written from her Rochester home to the neice who had found the same childhood home her abode more than fifty years since, is still preserved.

CARLSBAD WATER
The Great Natural Remedy in Catarrh
of the Stomach, Dyspepsia,
Gout and Rheumatism.

DR.. B. Hofmeister, in a lecture
read before the London Medical
Society, says: "The usefulness of
the Carlsbad Water has been thor
oughly established in diseases of
the stomach. The unnatural mo-
tons of the stomach causing pres
sure and belchings, the irritation
of the intestines resulting in
catarrh of the bowels, and the
infiamed mucous membranes are
the most fruitful of all known
causes of diseases. Out of them
grow most kidney and liver
troubles, diabetes, all rheumatic
affections and gout. have found
that the unnatural motions of the
stomach cease, the intestinal
troubles become soothed, and
health results from the use of
Carlsbad Water. The diuretic
effect of this water, its quiet ac-
tion upon the lining of the stom-
ach, and its healing power upon
the inhamed intestines are be-
yond all praise"
Beware of limitations. The gen.
uine Carlsbad Water and Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt must have the seal
of the City of Carlsbad and the
signature of "Eisner & Mendelson
Co, sole agents, New York" on
every label.

WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK OF
MANUAL TRAINING.

CfManual Training Law. State Mass.
In 1894 the legislature ordered that after
September /, 1895, every city of twenty
thousand or more inhabitants should
maintain as part of it's high school sys-
tenn manual training department.

we had provided the course in manual

that the equipment necessary for such a
course is an imperative need of this de-
partment. In view, therefore, of what
has already been done, and of the pres

to bear upon US, we feel confident that
