All aboard for Glenwood Springs over
the Colorado Midland Railway while the
grandeur of the scenery along the route
fairly awes us as we ride over Hager-
mans Pass at an altitude of II 500 feet.
This is the dividing line of the continent,
water flowing eastward to the Atlantic
and westward to the Pacific. At He'll
Gate the track curves and twists for
mile below, and when we reach Glen
wood Springs, which has ! 200 inhabit-
ants and is romantic spot, our heads
are fairly whizzing. Here-''oh joy, oh
rapture unforeseen are invited to
deposit the surplus real estate which we
have collected en- route, in the great
swimming pool which covers an acre of
ground, is three and a half feet deep,
paved with brick, and is filled by a
stream conducted from one of the hot
springs. Its temperature varies from
ninety-three to ninety eight degrees Fab
enheit. In our hurry to get Sin 1t, we
scarcely had time to stop and have a
hearty laugh at the comical figure which
some of the editorial FORMS cut when
the not overly beautiful bathing suits
were donned.
The pride Of Glenwood is the Col
orado hotel. Tnis building cost a mint
of money, and we understand had for it's
contractor Mr.. Hampshire, an uncle of
]. F. Hampshire of this city. 1t in
adequately conveys an idea of this
splendid establishment to say that its
dimensions are 224x260 feet; that it is
built around three sides of a court 124
feet square; that the walls are of colored
stone and Roman brick that the archi-
lecture is patterned after the Villa
Medicis of Rome; that it contains two
hundred guest rooms lighted by elec-
tricity and provided with open fire
places, and forty bath rooms. Amid
this splendor we registered and stayed
a few moments, or long enough to view
the building, attending a party in the
evening within it's walls.
Next morning at Grand Junction, Ore
gon left the editorial party for visit
with friends in Salt Lake City and to
see just what sort a person real live
Norman is. And we saw.
But what of Colorado scenery COM
pared with Oregon? If you had given
US something easier we could tell you
now but are compelled to attempt to do
so in our next.

AN ARTISTIC PORCH,
Paint the Chairs a Pretty Scarlet and
Arrange a Divan with Cushions

Paint the Chairs a Pretty Scarlet and
Arrange a Divan with Cushions.
The days have come when the porch is
worth ten of the parlor, ard piazza fit
ments become pressing question.
1oTches are arranged more enchanting
" each year, and Of late furnishings are
so cheap that no woman need have a
dowdy verarda if she can call upon a
few dollars and a bit of ingenuity.
In the beginning of the beginning get
rid of that old idea of set-looking, cush-
ionless furniture. Make your porch cool,
informal summer room.
Curtains or a curtain of India mating
are well worth investing a little money in
Fitted out with double cords they can be
drawn up or down as the sun changes
Then have generous supply of cush-
ions in cool colors. Denim, gingham-
the cheapest of materials will serve if
shade and pattern be pretty.
Contrive to have a potted plant or two
"a tall rubber tree or palm. Until you
have tried it you won't imagine what a
delightful little color touch this places
Get last years dilapidated porch cush-
ions up from the cellar and give them a
coat of paint. Not the sombre grays and
browns they have worn heretofore, but
bright, bright red or yellow green
DiVans will be much in use where space
is large. Nothing expensive. A cheap
frame, covered with denim and stacked
with pillows.
A clever girl is arranging one from &
stout wire cot. 1t is to be covered in scar
let denim, and is designed for suburban
porch known about the neighborhood fer
its clever ideas
For the woman who intends investing
in new porch chairs or tables this year
the shops are showing a number of new
hints. RamhOO Suggested Caovac
seated stools ard steamer chairs-the
canvas IL pretty red and blue stripes
Natural wood furniture, also, showing sill
very bark.
Huge Oriental hammocks form another
temptation if the porch be of good size.

Peanut Oil Industry.

A new industry in this country is to be
established near Norfolk, Va. 1t is an
institution for extracting the oil from
peanuts. The prospectus of the company
announces that the product from five
tons of peanuts will be 225 gallons of
oil, worth so cents a gallon; $3.50 pounds
of peanut -four, worth 2 cents pound,
and $3.50 pounds of meal for stock feed,
worth 60 cents per 100 pounds, which
will make the value of the product $3.50
for each days operations.
The peanut flour is used in making
bread, cakes, etc, which are used in some
of the hospitals Of Europe. 1t is claimed
that much of the CASTLE soap of COM
merce is made from the oil of peanuts
and to that purpose the product of the
Virginia mill will be devoted.

THE ILLS OF WOMEN
And How Mrs. Pinkham Helps
Overcome Them.

Mrs MARY BoLLINeER, 1101 Mariana
St., Chicago, ILL.,, to Mrs. Pinkham:
Z have been troubled for the past
two years with falling of the womb,
leucorrh9a, pains over my body, sick
headaches, backache, nervousness and
weakness. tried doctors and various
remedies without relief. After taking
two bottles of your Vegetable Com
pound, the relief obtained was truly
wonderful. I have now taken several
more bottles of your famous medicine,
and can say that am entirely cured. !"
Mrs. HENRY DoRR, No. 500 Findley ST.,
Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. Pinkham:
For long time I suffered with
chronic Inflammation of the womb,
pain in abdomen and bearing down
feeling. Was very nervous at times, and
so weak | was hardly able to do any,
thing. Was subject to headaches, also
troubled with 1eucorrh9a. After doc
toring for many months with different
physicians, and getting 40 relief, I had
given up all hope Of being well
again when I read Of the great good
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound was doing. decided immedi-
ately to give it a trial. The result was
simply past belief. After taking four
bottles of Vegetable Compound and
using three packages of sanative Wash
can say feel like new woman. I
deem it my duty to announce the fact
to my fellow sufferers that Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable remedies have
entirely cured me of all my pains and
suffering. have her alone to thank
for my recovery, for which I am CRATE
full. May heaven bless her for the
GOOD work she is doing for our sex"

A Unique Manual,

The most remarkable company of SOL

under Extra Billy Smith, twice governor
of Virginia. He acquired the nickname

contracts which he held before the war,

had been sadly neglected, but he owned
brains to spare and horse sense enough
for three ordinary governors. He drilled
his men according to Extra Billy's Tao
tics" an unpublished manual of arms.

about a mile long, and arriving at the
end could not see his way out except by
tearing down fences and going through
a wheat field guarded by an angry
farmer with a dangerous-looking gun.
The objective point was the opposite
side of the field. After studying gravely
the situation he gave the order: "Dis-

Women Who Never Speak.

There is sisterhood in France that re-
sembles the famous Trappists' order in it's
austerity. These women when they enter
the convent are condemned to eternal 81
lence. 1t is the only Sisterhood of the
kind in the world and it was founded at
the beginning of the present century.
The fifty women within the walls never
leave their chosen home, never speak to
one another, never lift their eyes except in
prayer or work, and walk with their black
cowls drawn over their faces SO that they
can neither see nor be seen. They are liv-
ing, yet dead-year IN and year out they
exist, never raising their eyes.
THE silent Sisters rise at a. gn and till
7:30 tell their beads in the chapel The re-
fectory is dark, gloomy and unheated In
stead of a floor, the feet sink into sand.
Each sister has little drawer where her
tableware is kept. Sometimes while at
meals the superior rings a ben and each
sister is supposed to pause instantly, with
hands raised to the mouth, perhaps, and
cannot move till the bell rings again.
This is to inculcate submission and pa
tience. These women, unlike other sister
hoods, do no charity, never attending the
sick or suffering teaching children or res
cuing wayfarers. They are engaged in
notifying the flesh to purify their souls

Filtering Milk Before Using.

Central depots where milk is received
and filtered before being taken to the con-
sumner are now a feature of several En-
ropean cities. Large cylindrical vessels
are divided horizontally near their center
by compartments containing sand of three
successive degrees of fnene~a, the coarse
est being the lowest, and as the milk ar
irving from the country is poured through
a pipe into the bottom Of these vessels it
rises through the sand filter and is run off
by an overflow pipe into a cool cistern,
from which it is drawn directly into
locked cans for distribution. The sand is
renewed each time the filter is used.

LONDON'S GREAT WEALTH.
Utmost Inca1cu1ab1e Value of Some of
Her Realty.


Her Realty.
Values of real estate and some other
things in the city of London are set forth
in an article in paper published there.
Mansion house, which cost So, 100000 to
build, is now valued at fully ten times
that figure. The Royal Exchange, as a
building of bricks and mortar, is worth
S1,0OO,O0O, but land in that neighbor-
hood has recently sold at the rate of
SlO,OOO,OOO an acre. Eight bridges over
the Thames cost $25,OOO 600 to build,
but are now worth much more than that,
while the tunnels underneath are worth
other millions, and the embankment is
worth probably double the $10,0OO,0OO it
cost to make. If st. Paufs were pri-
vate property you might induce the
owner to sell it for $50,OO0O0O, but the
likelihood is very remote. Those tattered
banners which you have seen so often
would arouse pretty keen bidding at the
sales. Westminster abbey is difficult to
value. But the sales give US some idea
of what historic treasures are worth in
the market, and l should not be sur
prised if the abbey, put up in lots, real
lied $4,000. 600, 0OOO.
The British museum empty would be
! worth $7,5OO,OOO, and it is full of price
less treasures. The National gallery is
worth millions. 1t cost, with the new
Late gallery section, $l,I0O,OOO to
build, and has one picture which cost
$40 an inch. The Nelson column, close
by, is worth $25O,OOO, and the statue of
King George III, a little way down Pail
bMall, cost $4,000. The Albert hall and
Royal aquarium are both worth about
$1,250,OOO, but the Crystal palace cost
more than three times the value of both
of these. Earrs court, the great show
rivaling the palace, has millions worth
Inf %rnn -hnv, &c
the twenty-five acres of gardens and
buildings are worth $1,5OO.OOC. Imagine
buying the tower, the Holborn viaduct,
the miles of sewers, walks and pave
| ments; the various markets, of which
four-which are for cattle-cost $50,000.-
600 between them; think of the hospitals
and schools and churches, and fancy the
market value of the parks cut into city
lots. The entrances alone at Hyde park
are said to have cost nearly $500. 600

When Marshal MacMahon was Presi-
dent of the French republic an incident
occurred which illustrates the French
mans love of what is dramatic. A
French soldier sat On the summit of a hill
overlooking a garrison town; his horse
was picketed close by; the man was
smoking leisprely, and from time to time
he glanced from the esplanade to a big
official envelope he held in his hand. 4
comrade passed by and asked: What
are You doing here?''
Il am reading the Presidents pardon
for our friend Flichmann, who is to be
shot this morning. replied the smoker
calmly, without changing his comfortable
attitude. "Well, then, you should hurry
along with your PARDON admonished his
comrade. "Ah, nor exclaimed the 9th
er, in some indignation. ssSee. there is
hardly a soul yet on the esplanade, and
the firing platoon has not even been
formed. You surely would not have me
rob my appearance of all dramatic effect

Bingham the Rage,

Bingham is the rage again. 1t is much
used in the manufacture of the irrepressi-
BILE shirtwaist, for it has proved far more
serviceable than linen, lawn or batiste.
1t comes in all sorts of plaids and stripes.
and in the daintiest colorings. By the
way, the newest shirtwaists are finished
with a very narrow band at the waist in
front, which extends from the side seams
and is fastened with small button. In
this way unnecessary fullness is obviated
and thus the shirt waist makes another
appeal to stout women.

Journal. AT home everybody had known
everybody else in society from the cradle,
and we did not have much but each other
to talk about, but as | get to know peo-
pie here, and go to enter ainments outside
of the official round of duties, | begin
to understand why SO many come to
Washington for residence who have no
business, official or domestic ties in the
place. It's rather nice not to have people
know just how much you pay your serv>
ants, and when you bought your last piece
of furniture"
