many of their sins and mistakes
One of the grandest agencies which en-.
Ightened Science has discovered to relieve
motherhood from excessive suffering is the
Favorite Prescription - devised by DR..
r. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
of Buffalo, N. Y. This wonderful "Pre.
scription " inibues the entire nervous sys-
tenn with natural, healthy vitality gives
elastic vigor to the delicate organism spe-
cially concerned in motherhood: renders
the prospective mother strong and cheerful
and makes the coming of baby entirely free
from danger and almost free from pain.
The delighted gratitude of Mrs. Pearl
Walton, Of Alvo, Cass Co., Neb., will find
an echo in the heart of every expectant
mother:

as quickly as possible. am afraid the
buscuits will get SO hard they won't be
fit to eat
With this welcome, which to her hus-
band was further emphasized by the
tender look in her hazel eyes and an
impuIsive but coy grasp of her nervous
hand upon his arm, the young wife has
tened away to complete the preparations
for supper.
The little sitting-room into which they
were ushered was, like the two diminu-
tive bedrooms and the equally modest
sized kitchen that made up the rest of
the house, furnished with exceeding
plainness. An experienced eve, glanc-
ing from the street through the open
door and seeing nothing but the gar
nishment, would have recognized it in
stantly as the nest of a thrifty young
mechanic and his tidy helpmeet in the
first years of their welded life. Each
article spoke volumes of the efforts of
slender means to make creditable
showing.
The work of furnishing such house
involves as much comparison of objects
and their attributes as would suffice
for the construction Of a new theory in
biology, and as patient adaptation of

Journey of an Afrsl,ip.

An expedition of scientists sent out by the
French Geographical Society landed in New
York last Saturday on the way to Alaska
They propose to make the trip from Juneau
to the Klondike in an airship The expedi-
ton is in charge Of Prof Anthony Varicle. q
member of the Geographical Society and
founder of the French Electrical Engineer
Society. He has taken up the science of
aeronautics only within the past two years,
but he has made the most successful airship
voyages on record.
He is accompanied by DR.. Arthur Ter
wagne secretary of the expedition; Mr.
Ferret, geologist; Leon Bureau, civil and
mining eng gineer; Henry Boutillier, an aero
naut, and several Others. They brought
with them the airship, together with sup
plies OF sulphurc acid and iron filings with
which to manufacture gas to initiate the bal
loon at Juneau. They expect to start from
that point about May /.
The balloon is q cigar-shaped affair, on the
urderside of which there is long wooden
boom, from which the car is suspended 1t
will require about 5000 cubic yards of gas to
initiate the balloon. Only four of the party,
Messrs. Varicle, Ferret, Bureau, and Ter
wagne, will start on the voyage from Juneau
They exp, ct to cover the distance~in about
two days, although there are many new con-
dltions to be encountered and the length Of
time occupied must necessarily be uncertain
They are very confident of success, however,
and expect to lave no difficulty in navigating
their ship without reference to the direction
of the wind.
The car attached to the boom on The under
side of the balloon is rugged with ropes by
means of which it can be hauled from one
end to the other OF the balloon when it is
necessary to trim the ship. Extending from
the car to the balloon is large square sail
that can be spread in any direction in the
center of the ear Is frame of a trplet
bicycle, the power OF which goes either to a
fan at the stern for propulsion, or underneath
for ascension. Under the car are runners so
that it may be used as sled. Iron scoops
attached hang from the boom, in which will
ballast The ship is navigated at about 70
feet above the ground, and is kept at that
distance by appliances which control its
rising and falling. With the sail and the
fans the aeronaut can beat against the wind
just as q ship at sea tacks
Prof Varicle claims that the balloon is
perfectly gas-tight and will not leak parti-
Gle, so that the party may remain afloat in
the air at least week if necessary The OBJ
Jcct OF the expedition is to make Topographic
cal and geographical survey of the country
and among other things to look for the best
route for a railroad from the tide water to the
Yukon Valley. After the survey of the Ion
dixie region has been made the party will at
tempt to go over to Siberia and look for Prof.

Summer and has not since been heard from

Only in Chicago had section like
that of which Loomis street was the
main thor0ughfare reached its freest and
fullest development. Other newborn
towns and cities in the Great West had
their monotonous arrays Of little frame
houses, looking as much alike as if con-
tracted for by the gross, according to
samples furnished, and manufactured by
improved machinery that turned out so
many hundred finished houses per day
or week, all with the same shiny white
Notwithstanding, ali with the same
glossy green shutters, the same stingy
little porticos, the same blank, expres-
sionless gable ends turned toward the
sireet-looking, with their two windows
and door, like the impossibly square
faces that little children draw on their
slates-and all with the same penurious
half rood of door-yard inclosed by a
strong board fence.
Other Western places had acres, hun
dreds, square furlongs of these; Chicago
had thousands square miles of them.
Elsewhere walk Of 10 minutes would
take one through the longest street in
such section; in Chicago one an hour
long would not.
AT a little distance it looked as if
some great army had camped upon the
broad prairie in large canvas tents trim
med with green. The streets were as
straight and regular as if laid out by
military engineer, and the plank side
walks on either side stretched out for
miles, level as floor, and as rigidly
rectiiinear as the path of duty They
seemed like long webs Of coarse brown
cloth unrolled upon the earth to bleach.
The monotonous sameness Of every
feature in the view was very wearisome
to the eye. The wilderness Of unvary-
ing architectural forms, the streets, SO
long, SO inflexibly straight, and crossing
each other at such mathematical right
angles that they seemed as if they might
be meridians Of longitude and parallels
of latitude were as tiresome as endless
uniformity always is.
But for all this the prospect was vastly
pleasanter than is usual with the parts
inhabited by mechanics and working
men i'll older cities Better a half hun
dred cheap little boxes of dwellings than
one tall, hiye-like tenement; better their
raw newness than its mellow age and

sunless passages; better confinement to
a halfdozen roods Of earth than to that
many square yards Of fourth floor; bet

of the earth, but into which the rains
fell and the sunbeams shone and through
which the winds swept than many-an-

alleys, into whose recesses the vapors of
miasm and the exhalations of corrup-
ton sank, like carbonic acid in the
