A Truthful Picture.

The oil of ineendiarism, piped from tho
wells of hell into the cellar, Is the fuel
that feeds the fires of hunger and distress
in the poverty stricken home; that burns
the clothing from the children's backs;
that pierces the mothers naked breast
with the red hot iron OF shame and abuse;
and that transforms the gentle father into
roaring Wild beast. Can any apologist
for the saloon dare attempt to refute this2
And this is but a tinge OF the background
to bloody picture that is even now
stretching from horizon to horizon across
the face OF frowning sky; an outrage that
will some day tap the reservoir Of Divine
wrath, and roll a tidal wave Of indignation
mountoin high through the streets OF our
city, sweeping into the pestilential hole
from whence they came-both saloon
keeper and saloon!-W. K. Staley.

Antidote For Snake nIte.

United States Consul Germain of
Zurich, calls the attention Of the State
Department to an article appearing in
the Weekly Scotchman in regard to
the anti-venomous properties of the
bile of serpents. Experiments with
the bile of the African cobra, the puff
adder and the rattlesnake, it was stated
at a meeting of the Royal Society Of
Edinburgh, showed that the bile, when
mixed with the venom of serpents, was
able to prevent lethal doses of the lat
ter from producing death. Although
non-toxic in the alimentary canal, the
bile salts and pigments acted as poi
sons when injected under the skin oil
into blood vessel. 1t was improba'
BILE, the article continued, that bile il
its natural form could be used as al
antidote, except by internal admins

caused by a snake bite. The repor

Postage Stamps in Letters.

There is still a surprisingly large
number of people who do not know
how to send postage stamp in letter.
1t is better TO send it loose and run
the risk of it's being lost than to run
the risk of the recipient losing temper
entirely upon finding it tightly pasted
down to the letter so that if it comes
off at all it is necessary to use muci-
lage or paste to make il serviceable
again If two tiny Sits are made dag,
onally across one corner of n letter, q
corner Of the stamp can be slipped in
to the opening, and it will be held Sc
curely.-New York Times.

The old Flexible Bracelet in Fashion.

1.-The woman who is fortunate enough
to possess an old flexible bracelet which
has perhaps been in her family for
generations can bring it from its hiding
place and don it, for flexible bracelets
are the rage. The weaves are antique
in appearance and the Burmese is the
favorite finish for the gold. One of
the most fetching designs has a tiny
chain, two or three inches long, sus-
pended where the bracelet clasps, and
at the end of this bangles a perfectly
round gem. Pearls, turquoise, the de-
matoid, enormously called the olivine
rubies and sapphires are most in de.
mand. Others are studded at inter
vals with precious stones, while few
are plain, with ieweled clasps. New

MAGNIFTCENT SUCCESS.
General Testimon Concerning the Jubilee
 Demonstration.

London, June 22--All the perplexing arrangements in connection with to- days festivities worked to perfection, refiecting great credit on court off, cials, especially upon Lord Edward Pelham-C Clinton, groom in waiting to the queen; the Duke of Portland, mas ter of the house. and Lord Pembroke, lord steward of her majesty's house. hold The weather was also perfect It was cloudy in the morning, but there was sunshine from the time the queen emerged from the palace gates. The sky was cloudless and the weather was just warm enough to be pleasant.
 There were no empty seats along the route followed by the procession, but the speculators sold the ten-guinea seats for one guinea, and in many cases speculators gave their seats away. Evidently the crowd was not so large as expected. Many people were frightened away by the stories told of possible accidents, the danger of fire, etc., and by the startling stories of the prices which would be charged to enable people to reach their seats. But, as a matter of fact, there was no serious difficulty in reaching the spots selected from which to view the pro- cession. although the majority of the seat holders had to leave their homes before o'clock this morning.
 Mir Whitelaw Reid the United States special envoy, when questioned on the subject of the jubilee, said
 Etiquette forbids me from discuss ing the jubilee ceremonial, but you may say that it was extraordinarily success ful in every way"
 At the lord chamberlain's office this afternoon a representative of the Asso- ciated Press was informed that on her return to Buckingham palace after the procession the queen and all the royal family expressed the greatest delight and satisfaction at the fact that every thing had passed so successfully.
 There we're many expressions of sat- isfaction that the carriage of the Unit ed States special envoy, MT. Whitelaw Reid, had been so warmly received. This was considered to be largely due to President McKinley's cordial letter congratula ting her majesty upon the sixtieth anniversary of her accession to the throne. Every intention to hon. or the United States special envoy has been displayed. For this reason MT Reid took the Princess Victoria of Wales in to dinner yesterday morning, sitting opposite to and at the table of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. In addition Queen Victoria received Mrs. Reid most cordially, and at the reception in the ball room she gave the e sg, her hand to kiss.
