SICK A LIFETIME.
FOR THREE SCORE YEARS Mr..
WILLIAM LEVI WAS A TERRIBLE
SUFFERER.

Muscular Rheumatism Had Such a
Hold ON Him that He Could Walk
Only with the Aid of Crutches-Pink
Pills Were Given a Trial, and Al.
though SO Years Old He Has Thrown
Aside His Clutches.
From the Ne,c Era, Greensburp. Ind.
Mr.. William Levi, of Jackson, Mitch,
is highly respectable gentleman, who if
he lives four years longer will be 80 years
of age. Mr.. Levi now enjoys good health,
and is surprisingly active for a man of
his years, but such was not the case until
very lately, for it is not very long ago
since Mr.. Levi could only get about with
the aid of crutches. The following is Mr.
Lewis story:
great sufferer from muscular rheumatism,
and in the endeavor TO obtain relief have
become almost pauper. For thirty
years l did not enjoy sound nights
rest, nor did l have anything taste good
TO me, and for sixty years l could not
walk without canes or crutcheS. OF
course. / tried every physician year me
without any relief, and after one bitter
attack which lasted six weeks, everybody
thinking my time had come, / was ad-
vised to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People, and did so. While taking
the second box was able to throw away
my crutches, and by the time six boxes
we're taken was able to do any kind Of
work that a man of my age could do. l
now go about with only the assistance OF
a cane, my sight is good and hearing al
most perfect, and all the credit of the
change is due to DIR. Williams Medicine"

Clothes.

1t is an old English superstition that
unless some new articles of clothing be
worn on New Years Day misfortune is
sure to follow throughout the entire
year. There is an old folks rhyme on
this subject, which runs:
At New Years let your clothes be new,
)r else be sure you will il rue.

You Have Waited for This,

There are many people who would be
glad to abandon the habit of drinking
coffee If they could only find a substi-
tute for it. That substitute is Grain-O,
made from pure grains and beverage
In every way preferable to coffee.
Grain-O is not stimulant-it Is some-
thing better. 1t is cheering, nutritious
and Strengthening. In other words 1t
is food-drink, as coffee is not. 1t is
acceptable to the most delicate stom-
ach, and agrees with confirmed dyspep-
tics. Unlike coffee Grain-O produces
no nervous action. 1t never interferes
with sleep. AS for the favor of Graiu-O,
people who use 1t say that after using
1t week or two they like its taste bet
ter than clat of coffee. Grain-O is sold
by all grocers at 15c. and 25c per pack
age. Try it.

of a lily or lotus, to dry d teacup or
wipe away a tear. Among the Chinese
and other nations a pouch is used, in
stead of a pocket. This was also the
case in western Europe in the middle
ages, and for some time afterward. The
pouch was attached to the girdle, along
with a dagger and rosary. It was call
ed an aulmoniere or gipciere 1t was
often ornamented with curious pat
terms, gold and silk threads, coat-of-
arms and religious sentences. A dram
atist of the time of Henry VIII. wrote:
From my girdle he plucled my pouch:
BY your leave he left me never a
penny"
Breaches, however, had pockets at
an earlier date. In an old play, written
about 1911, it is mentioned that a man
had his breeches plated as if they had
thirty pockets. But pockets did not at
tain their proper position until the
adoption of modern style of mems gar
ments. With waist-coats, q great op-
portunity for pockets presented itself.
Later they were made very broad and
deep, and were covered with embroid-
cry and buttons. In the reign of George
III. waistcoat pockets reached such a
size in England that they became OBJ
iects of ridicule, so that they soon be-
gan to resume more moderate proper
tons.

A SEA BOTTOM EXPLORER.

Work was begun recently at the Co
lumbar Ship Yards, Baltimore, on the
construction of the Lake submarine
wrecking vessel, that is to sink into the
ocean depths, explore wrecks and coral
beds, and, in fact, be the wonder of
the age in marine engineering. The
boat. which has already been described
in these columns, will be cigar-shaped,
Sc feet long, feet in diameter, with
displacement of "a tons. The steel
hull will be braced to stand the pres
sure at depth of 800 feet. She will be
propelled by steam on the surface, and
by electricity while submerged. The
craft will be divided into four COM
partments%enginea and living room, air
lock chamber, divers room and look
out compartment. The pilot house and
smokestack will be in the center of the
vessels back. When running on the
surface the boat will be guided and
propelled as ordinary steam vessels.
The vessel will be submerged by fill
ing tanks in her hull, lowering heavy
weights to the bottom of the sea, and
then winding in the cables attached
to the weights, when the vessel will
descend. The fires will be extinguished
when the vessel goes down, and cleo
tricity will then supply the motive
power The peculiar craft is to carry
a crew of six men, and will be capable
of staying on the bottom 40 hours
without renewing air.
The openings where the divers will
go out will be on the bottom, and the
water will be kept out of the apart.

ing Its Cost.
Thg Washington Star says that Mr..
Bernard Green, superintendent of the
new Congressional Library, has sub
mitted TO the Senate a report upon the
construction OF the building. The re-
port says:
In conformity with the law Of Oc-
tober 2, 1883, under which the work
has been conducted, a report OF pro-
ceedings has been rendered 10 Con-
gress at the commencement OF each
session. In the last OF these reports
it was stated that the building was ex-
pected to be essentially completed by
the end of February, 1897, and that a
supplementary report would be made,
containing a detailed statement of the
cost of the structure.
The building having reached prac-
teal completion, as anticipated, Con-
gress, by act approved February 10,
1897, directed that my duties as con-
structing officer should terminate on
March I, 1897, and that 1 should then
| assume the custody, care and mainten-
ance Of the building and grounds and
superintend the completion of such
contracts pertaining TO the construc-
ton as might remain unfinished on
that date, the total cost thereof not to
| exceed the respective sums stated
therein. The II several contracts COM
ing under this provision on March 4,
1897, related mainly to works of art
and aggregated S64, III. 3d.
The report details these contracts
and then continues:
THE cost of the building, excluding
the preliminary expenditures by Con-
gress while considering the subject
prior to the first act authorizing actual
construction, dated April Is, 1886, and
excluding the cost of the site, amount
ing to $5S5,000, but including the above
mentioned unfinished contracts, is So

Librarian SDofford said today that
he had moved about 100000 volumes
into the new building, being duplicates
and books not required in the regular
business of the library He said the
work of moving the main body of the
library will not be undertaken while
Congress remains in session. 1t will
be necessary to close the library for a
period while the removal is going on,
and Mr.. Spofford thinks this should
not be done while Congress is in ses-
sion.
Mr.. Spofford said further that the
appropriations for doing this work will
not be available until July next, and,
with the small force now at hand, no
progress in this direction could be
made.

The eightieth annual commencement of
Georgetown University was held this

commencement exercises of this university
are always well attended, but this year the
crowd present was probably larger than

fact that President Mckinley was an
nounced TO be present.
People began flocking to the hall nearly
an hour before the time of opening, and
by 10 o'clock every available space in the
large hall was occupied. The ladies COM
prised by far the greater proportion of the
audience, and their gay summer gowns and
bright-tinted millinery presented a pleas
ing Kaleidoscope of colors.

and caps, marched on to the platform, tax

the students came the invited guests of the
occasion, who took seats on the south side
