tried nerves, so uncleanly were the
surroundings. The man was dead
and the wife lay across his body hys-
tericaIly kissing the vomit poisoned
lips. She struggled frantically and
was with difficulty removed to the de-
tention camp.
This is a fair sample of what the
board of health has to deal with in
discovering and caring for cases of
this nature. The man was buried at
the expense of the city, no money be-
ing had by his wife, nor is it likely she
would have parted with it If she had.
The total number of new cases today
was 26 and four deaths occurred.
One of the new cases is Major c. j.
Hamilton, who will probably succeed
Caster, as chief of police.

"Oh, but Mr.. Valois," Mrs. Wallis
cried, putting her head out Of the win

us tonight"
"With pleasure, madame. +" And the
carriage drove on.
Mrs. Wallis leaned back in the cush-

on my tongue for day or two. I didn't
mean it for anything but the most teas

the least, but 1 said it: Indeed, l
hardly think it is who happen to be
the lucky one. It seems to me he pays
you a great deal the most attention.
Mrs. Wallis is 40, but extremely
stylish and a fully equipped woman Of
the world in most things, but to my ut
ter surprise she met my little sally with
an embarrassed laugh and vivid, burn
ing blush. In my establishment could
not take my eyes from her face. She
was turned away from me, looking out

Wallis.
We all went up to London the next
day. All the way Mr.. Valois spoke OF
the sights to tb seen in the great
metropolis, but begged us to make 9
short stay there at first, going over tC
the continent for awhile, and then com,
ing back. He said-very justly-that
coming at once into a country whers
our own language was spoken we would
begin to draw comparisons with
America and belittle the magnifcencC
of England. But while we were here
there were few places that we mus

Sam Jones, the Cyclone preacher writ
ing to the Atlanta Journal from Des
Mones, Iowa, says:
agricultural products Of all kinds
are marvelously cheap. Some of the
farmers have thousands of bushels OF
corn, which they have held cribbed for
two years, and the market to day is about
ID to ID cents per bushel. Their oat
graineries are full and are selling Mt
about 10 cents. Their meadows yield the
finest timothy hay. Il stands in the field
almost rs high as II mans head,

Never rub your eyes nor allow your
children to do so from their cradles.
Wells are bad for the sight, especially
those spotted or covered with a Pat
wear the softest, clearest net when
obliged to do so. Never read in bed or
when lying on sofa. Sit with your back
to the light when engaged in reading or
working. Pale blues or green's are the
most restful wall papers for the eyes,
whereas red is exceedingly tatiguing.
Do not read, write or work longer than
two hours without resting your eyes
and closing them fully five minutes.-

had done in New York, and ended by
handing over the envelope containing

not strictly TRUTHFUL:

Society has circled around the square

OF the president is ''the first lady in
the land" and no woman has more
worthily worn that title than Mrs.
Cleveland has worn il. She has always
been gracious and unconventional with
the general public, while size has been
regal and superb in official functions
of society. But Mrs. Cleveland is like
all good mothers. She cares less for
society than she does for her little ones.
During the first administration of her
husband, when she was young bride,
she was delighted with her high So
cial position, and enjoyed every mo-
ment of her time in social leadership.
During the present administration she
has been more domestic; and yet her
official functions have not been neg
lected. She has been very greatly
pleased, however, to have the active
assistance and cooperation of Mrs. Sec
retary Lamont. Indeed, again and
again has Mrs. Cleveland avoided some
of the extra social amenities by direct
