The statistical situation relating
to silver indicates that its price has
touched bottom, Notwithstanding
the Director of the U. S. Mint says
it will reach 40 cents an ounce.
The greatest producing silver
mines, whose report we have seen,
produce the metal at from 90 to 30
cents an ounce, while scores of
smaller mines have alreany closed
down, because present prices have
wiped out what profit, it any they
made. 1t is safe to predict that at
present prices the worlds silver
production will decline 20 to 33
per cent. making the annual pro-
duction from 140, 100000 to l50,.
100000 ozs. This amount is an
nually consumed in the arts and
minor coinage, aud the consump-
tion is Increasing rather than di-
minIshing. From all which we
can see, demand now equals sup
ply, and in the future bids fair to
exceed it. These facts warrant the
belief that bottom in prices has
been reached.

Modern Proverbs.

Great wealth and high station never
make happy man.
If we cannot get what we like, let us
like what we can get.
There never was such being as per-
fectly reconciled enemy.
Let no man have false modesty. 1t is
thing to be despised.
Duty and right 60 hand in hand. They
must stand or fall together.
Never let ridicule interfere with your
ideas OF what is right.
Economy is virtue that consists
more in selection than in saving.
Nothing hurts man more than to
seem small and ignoble in bis own eyes.
Laughter is an enemy to malice, foe
to scandal, and friend to virtue.
No one can debase you but yourself.
SANDER never can rob you of manhood.
While you are taking care that your
neighbor does not cheat you, be you
also careful that you do not cheat your
neighbor. Nebraska State Journal.

Millions of Meteors.

twenty millions Of meteors, according
to DR.. Murray, fall upon the earth every
day, their aggregate weight amounting
to something like two tons. In a
hundred years we should get at least one
pound, at most 20 pounds, of cosmic
dust distributed over each square mile of
the earth's surface, and yet the organ
lied search which has been made forcos-
mic dust in every quarter of the globe
has yielded meaeer results. The best
hunting ground has proved to be tn.
bottom of the Pacific Ocean, where
1000 miles, from any land, red clay is
brought up, which on examination is
shown to consist of three kinds of par
ticles. A magnet will pick out certain
microscopic crystal fragments of titanic
or magnetic iron leaving behind mix
ture of blackish and hrownish spherules
the former of which contain copper, and
are seemingly of volcanic origin, while
the latter are OF radial eccentric struct-
ure, and are judged to be cosmic dust.
The slopes of Ben Nevis also yield traces
OF this extraneous matter, which, consid-
ering the millions of years during which
it has been steadily raining on the earth,
is strangely little in evidence.

1777 added large number OF dis
tinguished names to the list of it's guests,
among them John Adams, Lyman Hall

Schuyler, William Whipple, and Gems
Miflin, Knox and Greene. Soon after
Gen Washingtor's successful stand for
the defense Of Philadelphia at Brandy
wine, rumor reached Bethlehem that
it was to be the headquarters Of
the army. On the 23d of August 900
army wagons arrived, and were packed
in the field belonging to the Sun inn.
Baron De Kalb and corps of French
engineers arrived the next day, their OBJ
ject being to select an advantageous
position for the army should the British
follow up their successes. The party
was accommodated at the hosiery. On
September 20, DR.. Jackson OF the hospi-
tai staff brought the following order to
Rev. Mr.. Ettwein:-
1t gives me great pain to be obliged,
by order OF congress, to send my sick and
wounded to your peaceable village, but
so it is. We shall want room for 1000
at Bethlehem, Easton and Northampto on,
and you may expect them on Saturday
or Sunday. These are dreadful times.
l am truly concerned for your society,
and wish sincerely this stroke could be
averted, but it is impossible.
WILLIAM SHIPPEN.
On Saturday Bethlehem began TO real
ize the extent of the panic that had
stricken Philadelphia. Early in the
morning fugitives began to arrive from
that city-at first single or by twos and
threes, and later on in bands. In the
evening the first OF the sick and wounded
arrived, accompanied by Gems. Lafayette
and Woodford and COL Armstrong. AS
the night advanced many prominent
members of the Continental Congress
hurried into town and repaired to Sun
inn. The hosiery was crowded to its
utmost capacity. Its halls, reception
room and dining-room were filled with
groups of excited statesmen, eagerly dis
cussing the peril Of the nation. There
could have been seen John Hancock,
Samuel Adams, Henry Laurens and
Charles Thompson conversing in earnest
tones with their brother delegates, en-
deavoring to inspire them with their
own courage. Many were billeted in
private houses and farm buildings and
hundreds bivouacked in the fields. The
panic soou subsidized. however, and in a
few days most of the fugtives departed.

A WARNING NOTE.
1t Won't Take the Reader
Long to Peruse This, and 1t
May Prevent Heap OF
Trouble.

One evening in December, 1896, a respected
resident of Sutton, in the county of Gale
donia, VT, was reading Montpelier paper.
There was nothing strange or peculiar about
this, for the lady was accustomed every
evening to post herself on the current topics
Of the day, but on this particular occasion
her eye struck a paragraph which arrested
her attention and led to train of circum-
stances which it is the special object Of this
item to prevent occurring in this neighbour
hood or wherever this paper circulates.
Mrs. c. F. Brockway, for that is the name
of the lady referred to, completes the facts
mentioned in the above introduction as fol-
lows: II read the article second time, and
l came to this conclusion if Doan's Kidney
Pills cure kidney complaint and the distress
ing complications arising from inactivity or
irritation of those organs, why won't they
cure me? made inquiry next day at the
nearest druggist and as he did not have
them wrote to Montpelier for them. They
were just what l needed. l was getting
along famously when " la grippe" Frustrated
me. When the attack abated somewhat,
severe kidney trouble set in, and had to
do something at once. My husband searched
Sutton for Doan's Kidney Pills and drove to
Lyndon for them, but was unsuccessful in
procuring them there. What l endured
before second supply reached me is hard
to describe 1 can only add to my high
opinion of Doans Kidney Pills that l am
confident had I known of them when l first
found out l had kidney trouble l would
never have been as bad as l was. found

my experience will be the means of allevi-
ating such sufferers you have my permission

Home Decoration.

Writing on home decoration in The
Womans Home Companion, Katherine
B. Johnson saws:
Despite all that has been said and done
to the contrary, there is no surer way of
imparting CHEEKY and homelike air to a
room than by adding few pretty home
made things that show thoughtfulness
for the comfort ofthe occupants as we'll The
makers taste and cleverness. Never was
this truth more delightfully."- illustrated
than in the reading corner which a young
matron recently arranged in her hand
somely furnished guest chamber. The
main furniture was OF birds-eye maple,
and the dominant colors soft blue and
ivory white, all beautiful and in perfect
accord, but too spick and span to be
either restful or homelike. Something
must be done to relieve all this. Fortu-
nately it was large enough for the cor
ner idea, and it was carried out.
From some source an old-fashioned,
square cherry washstand and light
wood Boston rocker were obtained. The
former, with a shallow drawer next to
the top and shelf half way to the floor,
was eaisly converted into handsome
table by removing the ornamental"
back and sides and adding larger top.
With simple but exquisite cover of baby
blue linen ornamented with white linen
crochet insertion and lace, this stands
diagonally across the corner and holds a
Dresden china reading lamp and ink well,
with pen rack and tray, while the shelf
below carries all other essentials for let.
ter writing. On the wall above is a set
OF hanging bookshelves enameled ivory
white, with splashes and irregular lines
of gold, and filled with good assort'
ment of books and magazines. From
repeated stainings in the days before the
beauty of natural hardwood finish was
appreciated the rocker had taken on a
tinge OF red that harmonzed beautifully
with the table. This was given dull
finish, and back seat and arms supplied
with loose cushions covered with blue
denim, washed first to soften thetexture,
finished with piping and tufting buttons
of white duck, and secured to positions
bv white cord and tassels, same as used
for sash curtains.
A floor cushion covered with some sort
OF oriental stuff in which old red predomi-
mated relieved the color monotony,
while wicker footstool few inches
higher stood beside it seemed to say,
"Take your choice and be comfortable.
