LEWIS GEORGE CLARK DEAD.
Was the Original of George Harris in
 "ITncIe Tom's Cahin.n

Was the Original of George Harris in
 Uncle Toms Cabin"
 Lexington, Ky, Dec. 1.-The original of the character of George Harris in Uncle Toms Cabin,' Lewis George Clark, died at the home of RhOda Rich ardson here this afternoon, aged eighty six years. His father was Daniel Clark ScOtchman, and his mother a mulatto, It was his sufferings as a slave which. when told to Mrs. Stowe, caused her to create the character of George Harris. Clark ran away from his cruel master when forty years old. and went to the north. where he was cared for by the abolitionists, and where he lectured on the cruelties of slavery as it existed in the southern states. He returned to this city about four years ago. His health rapidly failed and about eighteen months ago he became destitute and an object of charity. A notice of his con- dition was printed in the papers of the country, and one of these found it's way to New Zealand, where a fund of $36O was raised for his support. This money was sent to Mayor Simrall last Christmas, and he had since then used 1t for Clark's benefit.

A MARKED IMPROVEMENT.

In the Demand This Christmas Season
 for the More Costly Goods for Gifts
 Reasons Therefor
 In reference to the welcome of Christi mas trade this season the old estab- lished house-the George H. Ford com pany-reports a more marked improve ment in the demand for finer and more costly goods than has existed for the past few years General Ford presum- ed 1t was accounted for from the fact that values of investments had increas- ed and people of means could look up- on their securities with more confidence and place a higher estimate upon them than before, since 1893 or '94. The pros pect of increased earnings and divi- dends in many enterprises had had a very healthy effect upon public senti- ment. On the other hand, there has never been a period In the experience of any one living to-day when so much can be obtained in intrinsic value com- bined with art in the precious metals as at the present time.

How Councilman Clifford Secured $40
 Check-NoW III at the Hospital.
 Councilman Edward w. Clifford of the Sixth ward is now at the New Haven hospital suffering from nervous pros- tration, having taken suddenly i'll at the Aldrich house about z o'clock Thursday evening. Dr. Klenke was called to the hotel when Clifford was taken ill, and finding him in serious condition, ordered him removed to the hospital Clifford had been missing from his home at 99 Greene street for several days. He has been out of work for some time, and it is said had been expecting employment in the city street department which is said to have been promised him. Last Saturday night he secured check for $40 as a loan from Thongs Menn's, who conducts saloon at the corner of Hamilton and Chapel streets, and gave his note as security for the loan.

When young woman sits down and ponders over her future life, there is one al-important subject which she should not forget. In a day dream she may build castles in the air with happy home, laugh ing children and loving husband in the fore ground. At that moment she may be facing death. Matrimony and motherhood hold out no happiness to the young woman who suffers from weakness and disease of the distinctly feminine organism. The wo- man who suffers in this way will be weak, nervous, sickly, petulant wife, an incapable mother and an unamiable hostess. Not knowing the truth, her acquaintances will not understand that she is deserving of pity rather than reproach.
 Any woman may be strong and healthy in womanly way if she will use the right remedy. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the best of all medicines for weak and ailing women. It acts directly on the de- licate and important organs that make wife hood and motherhood possible. It makes them strong healthy and vigorous. It banlshes the dangers that surround ma ternity It insures healthy baby and an ample supply of nourishment. Thousands of women who were weak, sickly, nervous invalids are now healthy, robust wives and competent mothers of healthy children, as the result of the use of this medicine.
 Mrs. John M. Conklin, of Patterson, Putnam Co.,, N. Y, (Box Io4), writes: 1T am enjoying bc,ICrf health and have been since took the last bottle ot Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. I had falling of the internal organs or female weakness, and flowing caused by miscarriage, and was very weak when I commenced taking your medicine"

SHALL WOMAN PROPOSE?

A recent reformer has written an
argument to prove that the privilege
of making marriage proposals rests
with the wrong sex, that women are
the proper persons to make the selec-
ton of life partner by request and
not through the more limited means
accorded them at present. AS an ex-
ample for any shy and embarrassed
maiden who might hesitate as to the
modus operandi in the unusual pos
ition of proposing, the retormer gives
a formula Tor a letter. 1t contains
the following: Il have the highest
esteem for your character. | am sure
YOU would make a good and affection
ate husband to suitable wife. Our
We've and feelings have often been
mutually exchanged in the most un-
reserved manner, and | have learned
to entertain tender regard for you.
If you, as / fatter myself you do, feel
similarly toward me, and think |
could make you a wife after your own
heart shall feel myself the happiest
woman alive by your accepting me.
Should you consent TO my proposal,
shall be delighted to mention it at
once to your mother. The Com
plete Letter Writer could scarcely
Rave produced so masterful and effect
i've a composition. What possibilities
Turk within this sort of an epistle as
sent from women to mem Cordially
at greeting or regret at parting would

the next post should bring him the
