Some of tho features Of the "Unele
Tom Cabin" parade might be called
both novel and amusing. The band
consisted of II conglomeration OF
white and colored musicians Their
erce-looking bloodhounds seemed
tame enough i'll tho parade. The
ponies and donkeys added attractions
for the small boys. Taken MI III all,
the parade was fully up TO the expoc-
tation Of everybody.
Push has been defined MS pcrsever-
ing energy, enterprise. 1t is hardly
necessary, however, to give deiini-
ton, for we Americans know full well
the meaning Of that term. The Amcri-
can nation has moro push than any
other nation. At the present day the
avenues OF life are crowded. III n man
wants to win place III the front ranks,
he must have plenty Of push. Com
petition is so keen that the man with
out push will soon be jostled aside IL
make room for some ono else. Push
lifts man from mediocrlty and
poverty to eminence and wealth.
There must not be any standing mo-
tionless upon the golden threshold ol
the wide open gate Of dreams. Fame
is not reached On the wings of dreams.
There must be work-bard, earnest,
persistent work before eminence if
reached. If n man has no push, there
is nothing else that can tako its place;
learning, talent and genius cannot.
The man Of push is man of intelli-
gence. He masters circumstances and
is not mastered by them.

In some of the Swiss valleys the inhabitants
are all afflicted with goitre or thick neck :"
Instead Of regarding this as deformity they
seem TO think it natural feature Of physical
development, and tourists passing through
the valley are sometimes jeered by the goitrous
inhabitants, because they are without the Of
fensiye swelling. Thus form Of disease may
become 80 common that it is regarded as a ma
tural necessary condition of life. II il so, TO
large extent, with what are called diseases Of
woman. Every woman suffers more or less
from irregularity, liberation, facilitating
drains, or female weakness, and this suffering
is so common and so universal that many
women accept il as a condition natural as it il
unnecessary. The use of DIR Pierces Favorite
Prescription strengthens the delicate woman
ly organs and regulates the womanly functions
80 that woman is practically delivered from
the pain and misery which eat up ten years
of her life--between the ages of fifteen and
forty five. "Fayorite Prescription" makes weak
women strong and sick women well

ANU EMENTS.

NINE. NAUSCHEK.-Three more per-
formances, tonight and Saturday matinee
and night, will conclude Nine. 1anauschek' 8
engagement at the Lafayette Square The
alter. Nine. Janauschek, a past mistress
of the technique of the stage, Is giving to
Washington this week one of the most ar
tistic representations that has been seen
here for q long time. Her Meg Merrilies is
the very embodiment of SCOTS description
of his famous creation; her love for young
Henry Bertram, touching in its tenderness !;
her hate for his father, bitter in it's intensi-
ty, and her resolve to restore the rightful
heir to his own, powerful in It's tenacity,
are all elements in a character strongly
and dramatically developed. in a play of
undoubted interest. Janauschek's death
scene is Of itself a study, and holds the
audience in rapt attention to the fall Of
the curtain.
