A Woman with a Record.

The case of Mrs. Addie W. Buzzell,
young woman of Clinton, has set all
Eastern Maine astir. Although but
thirty-four years of age she has been
married and divorced five times. In
each case she has been the libelant.
Her five ex-husbands are still living,
and are most of them neighbors of
Mrs. Buzzell. She is now in sole pos
session of large farm that she tills
with the aid of a hired man. Mrs.
Buzzell is very advanced type of an
Independent woman, and frankly states
that when she has found that a hus-
band has not come up to her ideas of
industry, thrift and congeniality, she
has promptly set him aside. She also
says that she is still looking for the
right man to handle her farm and make
her happy.
A statement to this effect appeared
in local paper recently, and since
then the woman farmer has been sub
iect to a singular siege. From radius
of fifty miles suitors have flocked to
Clinton. One man who rode up to
nti Ntobi was pibAliibiil Ouluhu nun
worth about $4,000, and he urged Mrs.
Buzzell to go home with him and take
care of his property. He is also di
vorced man, and explained to the Clin
ton woman that a married experience
Of seventeen years he had found thar
his wife too slack" around the house
Mrs. Buzzell's neatness attracted him
Other applicants have come in teams
ON foot aud by trains. Many ar,
cranks, who wanted to work on tht
farm two or three months ON trial with
out pay. Some brought their ward
robe in extra valises and parcels
others came in light marching order
This week the woman has been s.
pestered by attention from suitors tina
she has hitched her yellow watch do
! just outside the door. If a man brave
the dog Mrs. Buzzell lifts a shotgu
across her arm and, with the sell
reliance of Maine farmer women
threatens to 'let daylight" through tn
persistent suitor unless he leaves th
premises. So far the woman ha
driven away all suitprs, and has al
swered no letters. She secured d
vorce from her last husband only thre
months ago.-Bangor (Me.) dispatc

Bishop Spalding of Peoria, ILL.,, says:
Intoxicating drinks are not necessary to
health, since women aud children, to speak
In large sense, do not use them, and their
health is quite as good as that of men who
drink. They are not necessary, and often
they are harmful, bringing ruin upon
countless individuals, despair to the hearts
of innumerable wives and mothers, chang
ing homes which were created by love into
dens OF misery aud hate, filling asylums
with orphans to whom the deaths OF fathers
and mothers came as n blessing, turning
loose the spirit of lust and murder, OBJ
scuring the brightest minds and withering
the most generous hearts. Nor will any
good or wise man say that all this concerns
others, not himself.
"What am owe to q thousand influ-
ences not my own, and am the shallowest
of men If imagine that 1t is possible for
me to take care of myself without caring
for others. What injuries tho neighbor-
hood, the city in which live, Injuries me,
and when my faith or my country suffer
wrong l also am wronged; and man be-
comes a total abstainer not necessarily be-
cause he loves his fellow man, his religion,
his country; because he pities women who
are the wives of brutal husbands and the
mothers of helpless children OF drunken
fathers"

An Ideal House Robe.

Mrs. Mckinley wrote to her modiste
for an ideal house robe, aud in reply
received design that had been made
for a young woman upon her GONZALES
cence from fever.
The material was ladies' cloth of q
wooden texture. 1t was in one piece
and belted below the waist, with a
loose girdle of passementerie.
Over the gown was long robe of
ladies' cloth edged with passementerie
and provided with sleeves long enough
to slip down over the hands on cold
morning. It was lined with thinnest
pink flannel for warmth.
Such dress could be worn in ones
room nicely over the thinnest cambria
slips. Or it is pretty enough for call
ers.-St. Louis Star.

Victoria Meens for Ireland.

According to an absolutely unim-
peachable authority" a writer in the
Westminster Gazette relates how the
Irish song, ''The Wearing of the
Green" was very recently sung in
Windsor Castle. Queen Victoria, it
appears, requested young Irish lady
who was visiting the castle to sing an
Irish song. She went to the piano and
sang "The Wearing of the Green, "
and, according to the story told, Her
Majesty was touched by the pathos of
the song aud burst into tears. The
writer continues: "'Ahl' said my en-
inent informant, you little know the
depth of the Queens sympathy for the
Irish aud the tenderness of her
heart >"

The Vital step.

Mrs. Mary H. Hunt says: "The vital step
Is to educate the public opinion as to the
evil character and effects Of alcohol, and
the education must be as universal as the
people, and must be impaired before the
appetite Is formed. We have great deal
OF anti-saloon sentiment, but 1t is anti-alco-
hol sentiment that is wanted. Temperance
orators have denounced the saloon till no
one wants 1t next door, but very little has
perance instruction In our public schools,
il faithfully impaired, is creating this anti
alcohol sentiment"

WORLDS Youngest Teaeher.

At a teachers examination at De.
catur, Ind, the other day, before the
County Superintendent, Rovillo
Shearer, the twelve-year-old son OF
William Shearer, successfully passed
the examination, and was awarded a
license. He is conceded by instruc-
tors to be the youngest teacher in the
State of Indiana, if not in the United
States. He has always shown excep-
tional educational abilities, and will
no doubt become a successful teacher,
even at the early age.

''There is place in California where
earthquakes may be said to be kept on
tap" said a Fresno County fruit grow
er. The spot is at the headwaters Of
the Keweah, at the border of Fresno,
Tulare. and Inyo counties. You can't
hire an Indian or a Mexican to go near
that locality. They say it is the home
of the evil spirits. The country is
rugged and rocky-mountains with
deep valleys and precipitous cliffs.
Snakes, scorpions, tarantulas, cent?
pedes, and all sorts of hideous reptiles
and insects seem to have made that
neighborhood their paradise, for they
are there in very palpable abundance
''But in addition to these attrac'
tions, the region may be said to be III
q state of perpetual earthquake. The
ground trcm0les and quakes continu
- giiy, and the rocks themselves seem tC
be grinding and grating against one
another constantly, rs if subject t.
some great internal force. These phe
nomena are said to be more emphati,
at night than in the day time. Ere
quent booming discharges, apparentl,
deep in the earth, are heard, and mel
who have heard both say they are ex
actly like the muttering of distant ar
tillery. 1 have never heard any on
advance any theory to satisfactorily ex
plain this uneasy and perpetually dis
turbed condition of nature up anon

If you have no ice box, q fairly good
way to keep butter is as follows: Put
the butter in porcelain bowl, and set
this bowl in soup dish which is filled
to brimming with cold water. Turn
over this so that it will sit on the edge
of the soup plate in the water large
cheap unglazed flower pot, which has
been dipped in water. Lay over the
top of it a folded wet cloth. The con.
slant evaporation of water oozing
through its pores will keep the butter
several degrees cooler than the outside
temperature. The flower pot must be
kept wet all the time.

Knocking ont the Props.

One after another have the props that
supported the alcoholic treatment of dis
ease been knocked out or shown to be
utterly untenable. 1t was long strenuously
maintained that it gave strength and was
an aid to digestion; but the fact has been
abundantly established that few so-called
remedies so effectually sap vitality and
strength and impair the digestive powers
as the alcoholics. 1t was then confidently
asserted that it was to some extent con-
sumed in the system and SO contributed
to animal heat; but It has been abundantly
shown that much Of 1t passes out OF the
system as it enters it, simply as alcohol,
and It has never been shown that any part
of it undergoes combustion or contributes
to animal heat, and the universal testimony
Of polar navigators is that those resist cold
best who make no use of spirits.

HeInful Sign.

Sign the pledge: it makes strong obli-
cation. When a man gives up the drink
he must do all that can be done TO
strengthen his obligation. If he simply
makes q resolution, he feels at liberty to
withdraw from it IL he chooses. But ii no
double-knots his resolution with solemn
promise TO which he has put his hand,
then he feels bound by the most solemn
obligations. He cannot think OF breaking
his word. He dare not violate his plighted
troth And in the moment of temptation
his self-respect his love for truth, his desire
to be a man of his word bis written vow,
will be strong reason for saying no.

Mrs. McKlnloy's Health Improve

''Living at the White House and

Kinley," said a member of the Presi-
dents official household, land the
change has been of the most gratifying
character to her husband and to the
members of her family. 1t is a pleas
ure for the President to have his wife

recreation trip, and the effect of the
change from Canton to Washington
has been frequently commented upon
by all who have met Mrs Mckinley
since Inauguration day. She is not
so easily fatigued as was formerly the
case, and whether it is the knowledge
that she is indeed the first lady in the
land or change of climate that has
brought about such beneficial results,
one thing is certain, all her friends
and well-wishers are sincere in the
hope that this benefit to her health
may continue. 1t was remarked o.
