WHY WOMEN LOOK old.
Some Women Look Fresh and
Young at Fifty.
Others Appear Old and Dragged
Out at Twenty-Five.
Did it Ever Strike You That There Must
Be Reason for This2

How old look " is what women say
to their mirror.
The passing years are not what make
the average woman grow old in looks, but
the condition of nerve weakness, poor
blood and low vitality. Some women of
fifty preserve the youthful appearance of
twenty-five. The average woman of to-
day, however, appears old at thirty, with
dull, hollow-ringed eyes, thin, pinched,
pale cheeks, sallow complexion, dark or
bloodless lips, the face lined, and the ex-
preston the opposite of vivacious.
With good digestion, strong nerves and
good blood any woman can keep herself
young, fresh and youthful appearing, and
she can attain this much desired condition
byusing that greatest nerve and blood in
vigorator known to modern science, DR..
Greene's Nervura. 1t is positively aston
ishing what this remarkable remedy will
do for women. 1t is almost Fountain
of Youth, for 1t renews and maintains
youth by creating perfect and complete
health. Just see what its use did for Mrs.
Ormiston Frain, of So Park Place, Passaic,
N. j. She says:

" l feel it my duty to testify to the
merits of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy. Eight years ago 1 was
taken very sick with pains in my back and
lower limbs. was unable to stand or to
be about at all, and had to take to my bed
The doctors said l had womb troubles,
and kept changing doctors all the time
but got no relief. One day when I was
going to call in new doctor, friend
called and asked me if had ever tried DR..
Greene's Nervura. She persuaded me to
buy bottle, SO bought bottle and
after few doses I could feel change.
BY the time the first bottle was used up
felt much stronger and my pains didn't
seem quite so intense. After a time l
could walk a mile and very seldom lie
down in the day time. AS grew stronger

cases where general tonic is needed, and

All women should take DR.. Gre ,ne's

to attain health, strength and beauty.

Henry Georges Reply.

The late Henry George, after his ad-
dresses on the land tax theory, always
invited his hearers to ask questions,
which he delighted in answering. In
1888, after lecture in Washington, q
Western Congressman, accepting the
invitation, said:
"After all Mr.. George, you advocate
q system of con6scation Of property.
If I should take wild land and cultivate
and beautify it, would have won I'M
disputed title to the land itself, and you
should recognize my proprietorship in
it,"
This sally won loud applause from
the audience, but the applause was
deafenine when Mr.. George had flung
back this reply:
~ thought l had explained that all
improvements ought by right to belong
to the improver. Ga that we agree.
go further. All that you produce out
OF the land by yC ur labor should belong
to you. If should see you sitting on
the seashore fishing and should see you
catch large fish, or, in other words,
bring forth or produce that fish, 1
should maintain your right to it as
your property, to Use, to sell, to give or
bequeath; but I'll be hanged, sir, if I'll
agree that you own the ocean from
which you produce that fish. Land
stands in the same relation to man" -

Across the Au Sable Chasm.

The famous gorge in the Adiron-
dacks known as the Au Sable Chasm
was, seventy years ago, spanned by q
rude wooden bridge which hung one
hundred and twenty-five feet above the
water. One night fearful wind.storm
came and blew away this bridge-all
but single stringer or timber, eighteen
inches square. The bridge was not
replaced, but this single timber re-
manned, rotting, whitening and round

the Chicago Times-Herah tells thrill
ing story.
One pitch-dark night, ten years af-

in front of the tavern at Au Sable

stranger, ~ certainly rode my horse

"Again tell you, my friend, that

Household Hints.

To clean mother-of-pearl, amply q
paste OF whiting and wash off with
cod water.
Ribbons may be renewed by wash
ing in gasoline and then stretching
until the gasoline has evaporated.
To restore lace that has become
quite yellow, and yet should not be
as white as it must surely become
through washing, make suds in a
glass jar, drop the lace in and stand
the jar in the sun.
Dust marks behind pictures are q
great annoyance to tidy housekeepers.
A simple way to avoid them is this:
Place two small pieces OF cork at the
bottom of the picture frame. This
will prevent an accu mutation OF dust,
and the consequently dirty, unsightly
mark.
To clean a Shetland wool shawl,
make lather of lukewarm soapsuds,
and dip the shawl into 1t, rubbing
and squeezing gently with the hands.
Even the rinsing water should be soft
ened with little soap and particularly
is it essential that the water whenever
it is changed should be exactly the
same in temperature.
To remove mildew from white cot
ton materials dissolve one and one
half ounces of chloride OF lime in one
quart of boiling water. Strain the
liquid through thick cloth and soak
the widowed spots in this liquid for
several hours, and then rinse thor
oughly in clean water. Wet the goods
before putting them to soak.
Shoe leather may be dressed with
vaseline or glycerine. This is spe-
cially good treatment for leather that
has become stiff through being wet.
When shoes are wet, before putting
them away to dry they should be filed
with paper. The paper absorbs the
moisture aud renders the shoes softer
than they would otherwise be.
To clean picture frames, take as
much soft soap as will cover quarter,
put it into DO tie with teacupful of
water ann shake well. Add a wine
glassful of spirits of ammonia. Paint
the frame with the mixture, using a
soft brush. After few minutes rinse
off with another brush dipped in clear
cold water. Dry in the sun and rub
with chamois leather.

The HOUSEHOLD.
Fried Chicken.

To Northerner fried chicken and
corn bread are typical Southern dishes,
and mean nothing more than fried
chicken and corn bread. And yet there
ere 80 many different ways Of cooking
these two delicious foods in the South
that they seem almost like different
dishes in different sections.
Take, for example, fried chicken,
Maryland style. 1t is cooked in the
following manner: Select small young
chickens, not weighing over a pound
each. The chicken is cooked very
soon after being killed, plucked and
dressed. In the country 1t is not con-
sidered the thing to keep chicken any
time after it has been killed. In the
cities OF Maryland, where people buy
their chickens in the markets, they are
generally killed at least day before
cooking.
Cut the dressed chicken into four
pieces. Then dry it on cloth sprinkled
with salt and lay on plate while bat
ter is made by beating to stiff froth
two eggs, the yolks and whites beaten
separately. II two chickens are to be
fried it takes three eggs.
To the beaten yolks Of the eggs add
some milk, gill to each egg. Sir this
in well; then add enough sifted -four to
make stiff batter. Season with salt,
and last of all add the beaten whites Of
the eggs, which must be thoroughly
whipped in and blended with the bat
ter.
Put enough lard in deep frying pan
to swim the pieces Of chicken in when
the lard is smoking hot. Dip the
pieces of chicken in the frying pan and
fry till golden brown. Lift and drain
the fat off and place them on hot

An Artillery Duel.

II witnessed the only artillery duel
that took place during the war;" said
veteran wearing badge of the Sixth
Wisconsin Artillery" 1t was fought
al Port Gibson, Miss., and was arrang-
ed with as much tormality, if without
seconds, as marks one of those personal
affairs of honor in France"
In the spring of 1858 Gen. Grant was
mai euvring about Vlcksburg in effort
to get near enough 10 the fortified city
to strike an effective blow. Troops be-
low Vicksburg crossed to the east bank
of the Mississippi at BruiRsburg.
Port Gibson is ten or TIVE I've miles east
of Bruinsburg, and at that point the
Confederates were in force. At dawn
on May l, 1868, the two armies were
face to face.
"When we reached Port Gibson"
the Sank City innkeeper continued,
"both armies halted to take breath.
Way off toward the Co moderate line

one finely calculated. And sure
enough it was.
"There was no move in our line for
minute or two; then the bugle of the
First Wisconsin sounded, and out went
the six guns, wung into line and un-
limbered. In thirty seconds the
Johnny rebs saw that the challenge was
accepted, and both batteries opened
fire.
"While the singular duel was in
progress from twelve to twenty shots
were fred from each gun. The First
Wisconsin was commanded by Capt.
Jake Foster, an old Ozaukee county
boy who went out to Minnesota and en-
listed at La Crosse. He was good
soldier himself, and his gunners were
crackerjacks, and those percussion
shells made the Johnnies jump. Ii
wasn't five minutes before the Con
federates had enough and started to
withdraw the battery.
"Our boys disabled three guns, blew

wounded three or four gunners. Every

cheer from our boys"

THERE is probably no provision OF
the Constitution OF the United States
that furnishes more proof Of the wis
dom OF its makers, or that is more re-
vered by our people, than that which
provides for our judiciary system. But
nothing suits the Populists, except per-
sonal notoriety or gain for themselves,
AMI Senator Butler OF North Carolina,
who aims at being the Popalist boss,
wants an entirely new judiciary sys-
tenn, the judges to be elected for terms
Of eight year, and has offered joint
resolution proposing to amend the Con-
stitution in accordance with his ideas.
There is not the slightest probability
Of any such change, but that it should
be even proposed is warning to the
country Of what might be expected
should the people allow the Bryanites
to get on top. -
THERE are two girls in the State OF
Washington who were not only ardent
believers in protection-in the shape OF
the Dingley bill-but had the courage
Of their convictions, by which they
pro6ted. Believing McKinley's cleo
ton meant protection and consequently
higher prices for wool last November
they invested $1,S40 in a band OF
sheep. A protective tariff law was en-
acted, prices for wool advanced, and
the girls proAted by their faith and
good business judgment, selling 90 226
worth Of wool this year, and receiving
IS 220 for their sheep, net profit Of
$1,000 on an investment OF 81 $40 q
year ago. This Is only small illustra-
ton of the benefits of the tariff law to
the farmers of this country, but it is
plain, and therefore more effective.

If the report be true that Weyler is
causing the Sagasta cabinet unessiness,
that body must all along have been in a
shaky condition. 1t is hard to suppose
that Weyler has any hold on the regard
of the Spanish people. Every intelli-
gent citizen of bis country must see
that Weyler was costly and disgrace
full failure as a military commander.
The insurgents gained constantly
during his regime. He had an i'm
mense army, which he wasted inglori-
ously. His barbaric course toward the
unarmed people in the insurgent re-
gion shocked the world, and destroyed
the sympathy which Europe had at the
outset for Spain. Such a man can
hardly have many adherents in this
hour of his humiliation. If Sagasta is
afraid of jealous Weyler, Spain should
promptly put stronger man at the
head of her Ministry.
