The enormous hats worn by some
ladies of the present day are said to
cause a peculiarly irritating kind Of
headache. The weight of these hats
in itself is too heavy for the delicate
Uranium of a woman, but worst of all
is the anxiety the lady must feel in
keeping such thing poised on her
head. A physician who was consulted
prescribed the usual remedies for what
ladies called the migraine, but strong
~ advise them to put aside such head
gear and wear light. reasonable bon
nets. This physician says that, al
though he is no alarmist, he is Of
opinion that the exaggerated hats over
laden with ornaments which many
ladies now wear are responsible for a
good deal of the peevishness, fretful-
ness and incipient mental alteration
watch characterize SO many who pride
themselves on being in the fashion.

ly den1ded Of blood. According to the
Spectator" to partly empty the brain
of its blood supply, to keep the head
cool, the blood sufficiently warM and to
send the blood rather to the lower ex-
tremities-this is the physical problem
of the sleepless. 1t is interesting 80
note that during sleep great number
of the bodily functions continue quite
normally without interfering with. sleep
itself, and therefore sleep is not so
like death as some of the poets have
imagined. Man asleep is not so pro-
foundly different from man. awake, the
two chief points of difference how
ever, being these-a greater indrawing
of oxygen and exhalation of carbonic
acid and complete nerve rest. The
bedroom and the state of occupant CAS-
Stunning the absence of external noise)
are the chief factors in the problem.
The sleeping room should be airy and
cool, never, for adult persons, reach
ing a higher temperature than GO de-
grees, though young children need
greater warmth. The head should
never be under the sheets, but exposed
and cool. The feet should be kept
warm by little extra clothing at the
foot. With heavy sleeper there
should be no thick curtain, but with
light sleeper curtains are essential, as
sunlight plays upon the optic nerve and
that attention which il is the
one object of the sleeper to keep in sus-
pended animation. The bed should
never be between fireplace and door, as
it catches the draughts, and it is more
dangerous and more easy to contract

The number of money order offices
in the United States has increased
from 419 in 1865 to 2O,031. Last year
the receipts for money orders yielded
an excess over expenses of $780, OO
During the fiscal year 1S96-'97 there
were more than 100000 transactions

money. Millions of money orders
were bought to be used by the buyers
as drafts, and certified checks are en-
ployed for safe and convenient car
riage," said Postmaster General Gary
in his annual report. He also calls at
tention to the fact that money orders
are bought to secure safe deposit for
cash in the absence of trustworthy
banks. He mentions one instance
where twenty-five orders for $100 each
were bought with cash drawn from a
collapsing bank.-The New Time.

Dyer of the Baltimore Second to
Dewey.

The magnificent victory won by
Commodore Dewey over the Spanish
fleet at Manila will go down as one
OF the quickest and most daring
achievements in the naval history, not
only of the United States, but of the
entire world. That he dared navigate
the harbor in the dead of night. know
ing 1t was mined, so as to be in a
position as soon as day broke to at
tack the enemy, was an exhibition OF
pluck that has amazed the world. His
success in annihilating the Spanish
fleet has been recognized by the United
States government by resolution OF
congratulation, and he will also be
promoted to rear admiral. From navy
officers in all parts of the world his
achievement has called forth words of
admiration. While much has already
been written about Commodore Dewey
we must not overlook the gallant COM
manders who so nobly stood by their
ships in the battle of Manila, and upon
each of whom share of the honor
OF Commodore Dewey much can be
written. His christening of fire was
aboard the old steam sloop Mississippi,
under Farragut, in the early days of
the civil war Commodore Dewey is
now about 81 years old. He belongs
in Vermont, and he was appointed to
the Naval Academy from that state in
September, 1854. Four years later,
when he was graduated, he was sent

Michigan on September 26, 1860. He
remained in the Naval academy until
1863, when he was made an ensign
and attached to the steamship Oneida
of the West Gulf squadron, from 1863
to 1865. He was on board his ship
in the battle Of Mobile bay, on August
5, 1864. At the close of the war, hav-
ing served in number of engage
ments, he was attached to the steam
sloop Brooklyn, of the Brazilian squad

sarge. He was promoted to lieutenant
on February 81, 1867, and to lieuten-

cruise in the Mediterranean. Dewey
got his commission as lieutenant on
April 10, 1861, eight days after Fort
Sumter was fired upon, and he was
Immediately assigned to join the Mis-
sissippi and do duty with the West
Gulf squadron. He was on the Mis-
sissippi when she took part with Far
ragut's other vessels in forcing an en-
trance to the Mississippi river, and
again when the feet ran the gauntlet
of fire from the forts below New Or
leans, In April, 1862, and forced the
surrender of that city. The ship he
was in belonged to Captain Bailey's
division of the fleet which attacked
Fort st. Philip.
The hottest fight that the Mississippi
ever engaged in was her last one, and
this was perhaps as hot as any of the
war. In March, 1863 the fleet tried
to run by the Confederate batteries at
Port Hudson. Some of the ships got
as far as a narrow part of the chan
mel, where they met land batteries al
most muzzle to muzzle, and then they
were forced to retreat. The Missis-
sippi did not get as far as this. A
foggy day had been chosen for the at
tempt, and this was soon made more
obscure by the smoke of battle, and
amid this the Mississippi lost her bear
ings and ran ashore. Her officers
found she had struck just under the
guns of battery in the middle of the
line of Notifications, and one of the
strongest of the lot. In half an hour
$50 shots struck the vessel and she
was riddled from end to end. There
was no chance. to hold her, and her
crew took to their boats and landed on
the opposite side of the river after
setting her on fire. Soon, lightened by
the loss of the crew and by the fire,
she drifted off, and, blazing and salut-
ing with bursting shells, she drifted |
down the river, until finally the fire
reached her magazine, and her career
was ended in one great explosion.
Dewey was next attached to the
steam gunboat Agawan, of the North
blockading squadron, and he
took part in the two attacks made
on Fort Fisher in December, 1864, and

The judge, being good-natured fellow and

His Hearers Were Duly Appreciative
But Were Not Completely
Carried Away.

He was .unquestionably an orator. But
he was not content with that gift. He de-
sired to deliver speeches which would read
we'll in print. AS a result, his periods were
polished till they lost force. They would
have made more of an impression If he had
left few jagged edges on them. His speeches
were as famed for their soporifc qualities as
they were for their immaculate syntax, but
his wife was a confident admirer of his pow
ers as a speaker. Without taking the
trouble to inform herself very thoroughly
on the topics he discussed, she accepted his
observations with implicit faith and un-
bounded applause. She had gone to hear
him address the legislature. After it was
over he remarked:
"That speech wasn't the success we hoped
it would be-"

answered, enceuragingly. 81 enjoyed it

LETTERS DEAL COLLAPSES.
Immense Sales by Him at Chicago Smash
the Marke:-Rumor That Letters
Big Profits Have Vanished.

CHICAGO, June 14.-All interest on
the board of trade yesterday conferred
in the doings of Joseph Letter and the
results of his famous big deal in
wheat. A tremendous slump in prices
was generally attributed to immense
sales for him. According to one au-
thority Mr.. Letter ordered all his
trades closed out at the opening
of the days transactions in the
wheat pit and it was stated that
at least 100000 bushels of wheat
were iquidated for him in the Chicago
market alone. Fifteen minutes before
the closing bell rang on change the
tickers had a report that Letter cash
wheat would be trusteed. It was said
that the bankers who had made adj
vances on it had agreed to take care
of it. 1t is the opinion of many that
all of Letters immense profits have
vanished in the past few days, because
of the big decline in wheat which he
had left this morning, for which he
paid very high prices, while he was
holding the market up to sell his big
lines.
