Dewey's Victory.

On the proud Pacific ocean
Sails Dewey's mighty fleet
Sailing on in all her glory
To victory or defeat.
Sailing on she never falters
Till she nears the Philippines.
Where the Spanish are in waiting
With their mighty guns in line.
Onward was the watchword
vi those loyal hearts and true,
And never was there Drawer boys
Than Dewey's gallant crew.
Undaunted was their leader
His cause righteous one;
He fights to free people
From the iron law of Spain.
Onward shouted Dewey
Though the foe is three to one
Press onward in the conflict
Until the victory is won.
They press onward in the conflict
Pass DER the Spanish line,
And plant the stars and stripes
Upon the Philippines.
And when they came to number
The dead and dying for the day,
Six loyal sons of America
Had fallen in the fray.
Upon the field of battle
Six hundred Spanish slain,
Their lives to pay the forfeit
Of the disaster of the Maine.

biesome How it Was Cured.

oieSome How it Was Cured.
"My first trouble began with nervous
headaches which would last for two or
three days. The doctors could not do
anything for me, and advised change of
location. At the age Of 55 a tumor formed
on my spine, which was very painful but
did not rise or discharge. The doctor
thought best to cut it out, but objected.
1t finally broke and discharged great
deal. The doctors said they could do
nothing for it. 1 received no benefit at
the Springs which I visited, and the tu-
NOR finally began to rise inwardly and
discharge. Seeing an advertisement Of
Hoods Sarsaparilla thought would
try it. Before had finished taking one
bottle l found I was much relieved, and
when had taken two bottles the rising
began to break inwardly. 1 continued
the use of Hoods Sarsaparilla and after
l had taken II bottles I was entirely
cured" W. D. FORE, Gillian, Missouri.
You can get Hoods Sarsaparilla at all
druggists. 81; six for $5. Get only Hoods.

POPE LEO's ROOMS.

Sacred Corners In the Vatican Seldom
Seen by InquiSitive Visitors.
The rooms actually inhabited by
Pope Leo in the Vatican ire not nu-
merous. and only the cardinals, his
immediate surrounding; and those
who are granted special audience
are admitted. Access TO them Is
reached from the Corte DamasO by
the Scala Regia, opposite the cele-
brated Sistine chapel, which latter.
although it actually forms part of
the private apartments, is not diff
cult of access to the general public.
The furniture of all the anterooms
is modern and very simple, being
made up of red damask and velvet,
with gold lace hangings. There is
nothing in them specially to attract
the eye or to remind US that we are
invading the privacy of the pUntiff
save the baldachini, or canopies,
which are made use of in process
sions and other functions and which
have similar upholstery. Under one
of these the pope takes his solitary
meals, for by the etiquette of the
court he is not permitted to enter
tain even the nearest of his relatives
OF to eat otherwise than alone.
The private library, which over
looks the piazza of St. Peter, has
three windows. but some years age
the present pope diminished its ap-
parent size by means of richly en-
broidered damask screen, artistical-
ly disposed and lightly supported by
elegant columns, which divides the
room into two parts. The walls are
furnished with bookcases of pearly
whiteness, picked out in gold with
golden foliage, but the books which
repose in these shelves, as well Us
the numerous manuscripts. are not
visible, being for the most part
carefully covered by green silk
hangings. The screen only reaches
as far as the top of the windows
and thus the upper part of the rooai
is left open.
The division of the room which
has two windows contains hut few
books, but on the side opposite tie
screen is large console IN the style
of the seventeenth century, OH
which are placed crucifix and two
immense candelabra. The only orna
ments of the library consist of busts
of the popes-ten in number-among
which Plus VII and Plus TX are con
spicuous. 1t is here that on certain
semlprivate occasions, as, for in
stance, his name day (Onomastico)
J in August, the pope receives the
visits of the cardinals and of his
private friends.
AS might be expected, the daily
routine of the pope life is extreme
ly simple, but the amount of work
of infinite variety which he gets
through in the day is incredible,
considering his advanced age. He
rises at z, at which hour his faith
full valet and maggiordomo, Centra,
is always in waiting to assist at his
: masters toilet His bedroom il
large and commodious, without q
vestige of luxury, but the details oi
his apparel require the help of ar
attendant The pope is neat to the
last degree in all that concerns hii
requisite dress. and his valet takes
, care that nothing is wanting in the
disposal of his spotless linen or ot
his purple stockings and that the
sacred slippers are in their place
