OF the DISTINGUISHED Number Who
Served Only Two Are Living.
Don't you know that man 2" asked a
southern member of congress Of Star
reporter, pointing to an elderly man
with gray, curly hair ard mustache,
who stood at the corner Of Fourteenth
and + streets a few afternoons ago.
"That is II. G. Worthington, and few
men in this world have had such di-
versified life as he. He and Henry G.
Dawes, of Massachusetts, are the only
survivors of the distinguished men who
acted as Pallbearers at the funeral Of
President Lincoln. That was on April
1s, 1865.
''Worthington was then representa-
tive from Nevada, and that was by no
means his first position in public life,
He was member CT the California leg
islature in 1851, and served together
with the recently retired Justice Fled.
He was with Walker, the filibuster, in
his expedition to Nicaragua, and barely
escaped the fate that befel Walker and
several thousands of his followers.
''Worthington participated in the ad-
mission CT three states. He is one of
the few persons living who stumped
California for Gen. John c. Fremont.
He was a great friend of Fremont, and
was his legal representative in settling
up his Mariposa estate, in California.
''He was sent by Nevada as her first
representative in congress. Nye and
Stewart came along at the same time
as senators. When Grant was in Cali
fornia, long before the war. he became
acquainted with Worthington. The
friendship that sprung up between
them in tie golden state was severed
on.y by Grants death.
president johnson appointed
Worthington to a South American mis-
sioa. Later he was recalled, and Grant
appointed him collector of the port of
Charleston, S. c. He is native Of South
Carolina. The people of the palmetto
state sent him to congress, too.
'Worthington was in Ford's theater
the night that President Lincoln was
slot, and he was witness at the trials
of the assassin. He had been with the
president at the white house in the
afternoon. He spends much time in
Washington, and it is always rare
treat to meet and converse with him."
The names Of the pallbearers at Pres
ident Lincoln's funeral, as given in the
Evening Star, April IS, 1865, were

BREATHE PURE AIR.
The Necessity For Filling the Lungs at
Zach Inhaiation.

Eaeh limitation.
Breathe pure air always In the lungs
most important physiological process
occurs. IL Is from here that the blood
laden with oxygen is sent to all parts Of
the body giving off along its course its
oxygen and taking up carbonic acid gas,
which 1t brings at last to the lungs,
when II is cast out i'll expiration. More
oxygen Is taken in by inspiration and
the same process is repeated
So letyour breathing be full and deep,
going to the very bottom of the lungs
Ill order that all of the blood i'll them
may receive its full amount of oxygen
before again starting upon its tour of
distribution through the body. Can one
use any more foreible argument in favor
of loose clothing than this? 1t is abso-
lutely impossible To secure plenty of
oxygen il the clothing is worn at all
tight, and oxygen Is II food which the
body must have always in abundance to
keep we'll
Tho air leaving the lungs is laden with
! that deadly poison carbonloa acid rs,
which IL given off i'll close room when
no provision is made for its escape and
the entrance of pure air soon renders
the air utterly unfit to breathe. Perhaps
some night you will find yourself un-
able To sleep and tumble restlessly about
IN bed. When this occurs, go to an open
window aud inhale tho fresh air, breath
ing slowly and deeply. A few minutes
OF this and You can return to bed and
probably will soon be sleeping quietly.
| What has happened? BY its restlessness
the body WAS asserting its need of more
oxygen. Now you have given it what
II SO emphatically asked for and it is
quiet We get as much uneasiness and
disturbance from tho want of this food
AS when we do not eat enough, only the
symptoms arc not so we'll understood
nor recognized SO quickly. Always keep
your mouth closed and breathe through
your nose Then the air is warmed,
slightly moistened and largely freed
from PARTICLES of dust, SO that when it
enters tho lungs it does not irritate
| them.
n condition often met with by ply
sieians is anmmia In this trouble tho
patient is pale, lifeless looking, tired
and generally used up, often without
being able 10 tell distinctly how she
does feel. Sometimes these patients say
that they have not enough blood. 1t is
really only an element of the blood
which Is wanting, but that is n very
important one-namely. tho red blood
corpusele
When you know that it is only those
corpuscles which have the power to take
up and carry oxygen You sec at once
how important it is that tho blood
should not be lacking in them. Good
wholesome food plenty Of it and well
digested will give you the corpuscles
Furnish Them with the oxygen and the
body will have an important element

AS Humboldt justly remarks, the
beautiful and celebrated constellation
of tho Southern Cross, never seen by

seen in that latitude in about rs, 600
