She fixed her great blue eyes on me
and said, gravely:
Mamma, why did you give nothing
to that poor man in the Champs Ely
Sees?
Like me, she had thought OF moth

man; her heart was oppressed like
mine; only, better than her mother or
more sincere, she confessed quite SIM

should have gone away? Suppose we
could not find him again? Arrived at

we were going away quite distressed,
when all at once Suzon perceived the

he was sleeping in the shade, with his
hat between his knees.
"Suzon went up to him on the tip OF

into the empty hat. AMI then we went
back to the Rue LATTE. 1t was alb

The young woman stopped in full
silence, blushing rose all over to have
spoken at such length about herself.

For Rum Down Cows.

II inclined TO run down in flesh be-
cause OF giving so much milk cows
should have carbonaceouS food, such
as corn meal, to keep them in condi-
ton; but they will eat less coarse food
IL fed that which is concentrated, and
the cost will be increased, says an ex-
change. Cattle like a variety of food,
and variety will not only stimulate
their appetites but it will improve
their digestion and enable them to as
simulate more Of what they eat, con-
verting it into growth of frame, fat or
milk. Some succulent food along with
the concentrated food is always bene-
fetal. And regularity in feeding is an
important requisite, for~no matter how
liberal may be the feeding or how judi
cious the selection of 1t, it will not
have all its good results il it is given
irregularly. Each animal that is fed
by an knows its feeding time better
than the average of men know their
own, and when the animal passes its
regular hour without being fed 1t be-
comes restless and uneasy, and a waste
OF tissue begins that soon becomes
more than the ordinary supply of feed
will repair. The food in such a case
is generally eaten too rapidly and for
that reason Is badly digested.

HumIIlatInC m Rival,

1t Is not a mooted question in Per-
STA whether women dress for the eyes
Of men or those Of women, as there on
ly women see women, at parties. In
her book, Through Persia on a Side
Saddle" Miss Sykes, writing Of the
women of Teheran, the capital of Per-
STA, confesses that even Mohammedan
isolation does not prevent women from
being envious of other women If they
are dressed better than themselves.
She writes: II was told that many of
the fine ladies would give large sums
in the European shops of Teheran for
any brocade of silk which struck their
fancy, and would wear it at the next
party to which they invited their
friends, Haunting the new toilette os-
tentatiously before them to fire their
jealousy. Usually, however, one OF
the guests would pay her hostess out
by buying some more Of the same ma
terial and having it made up for one Of
her slave women. She then would in
vite a large company to tea, and the
cups would be handed round by a ne
gress adorned in the rich silks with
which the former hostess is arrayed
Later on the slave would dance before
the guests. The great lady, who has
been invited to be mortified would be
both disappointed and inundated. The
lady who had given the party would
be pleased at vexing her rival.

her head: "No, no." We felt that she
spoke the truth. so much did all that
we saw and knew of her, her restful
bearing, her renown as an unblemished
wife, lift her above the fashionable
dolls who had just been confessing the
unsettled state of their systems.
Doubtless her modesty feared the
boast OF SO complete an indemnity
when everyone around her had ac-
knowledged all sorts of little troubles.
She corrected herself:
Good heavens! l can't say that 1
habitually add up the cab numbers, or
that l make an inventory of all my
dresses before going to bed. Still, the
other day l experienced something
that sufficiently resembles what you
have been describing. If have under
stood you quite-a kind of interior i'm
pulsion, force which compels you to
accomplish an Indifferent act on the
spot, as IL it were a matter of life or
death"
We insisted on hearing the story,
and she told it most graciously, With
the air of begging pardon for the claim
on the attention Of others by so slight
an adventure.
''In two words, this is what happened
to me. Five or six days ago had gone
out with my little girl, Suzon-you
know her, she is 81 was taking her
to her class, for this big girl already
follows classes. AS it was very fine
we had decided on going on foot by
the Champs Elysees and the boule-
wards from my home to the Rue La
fitte. And so we were walking along
quite gay, chattering together, when at
the top of the Rond Point a lame man,
rather young, limped up to us holding
out his hand without saying anything.
I carried my parasol in my right hand;
with my left hand l held up my skirts;
confess had not the patience to stop
and hunt for my purse. went on and
gave nothing to the beggar.
"Suzon and l continued to walk
along the Champs Elysees. The little
one had suddenly ceased to talk, and l
also, without quite knowing why, no
longer felt any wish to talk. We were
at the Place de la Concorde, and yet
no had neither of us opened our lips
since we had passed the beggar. And
little by little l felt stir and increase
kind of inward disquietude, and uneasi-
ness. the feeling of having accom-
plished an irreparable action, of being
threatened, for that very reason, with
vague peril in the future. In general,

far as possible. And thus, all in walk

STORY OF A BEGGAR,

1t is quite little story. slight and
thin; so thin even, so slight, that l
fear, in fixing 1t on paper with written
words, to rob it of its frail grace, its
light SAVIOR. Why, then, when it was
related to us one evening, in all the
complicated and decorated luxury OF
modern talk, by the charming woman
who was the heroine of the episode
why did IL make such a tenacious i'm
preston upon us all that it has become,
in one little corner of Partisan life, one
Of those classic tales, patrimony OF
each group of society, to which allu-
sion is always understood and well
coined? Perhaps because 1t was clear
gap in the chatter of infidelity, in the
hackneyed gossip of politics and liter
ature. Perhaps because, as an attitude,
a gesture at times may suffice to reveal
to us a whole feminine body beneath
Its clothing-at times 1t also needs but
a few sincere words uttered by a
woman to disrobe her soul completely.
We had been talking of mysterious
solicitations, today classed and named
by science, from which so few of us are
exempt, which invincibly compel some
to add up the flowers of a wallpaper,
the volumes Of a library, everything
that is additional, under their eyes;
others to impose upon themselves the
task, walking along the side path of
street, to reach such a gas-jet before
the cab rolling up behind them Is
abreast OF them, or a public clock has
struck its last note, and others, again,
each night before going to bed, to prac-
tice strange habits OF disposing of OBJ
jects, visiting cupboards and Golfers.
We discussed all the light diseases OF
our contemporary brains. crumbs OF
monomania and madness transmitted
by inheritance after inheritance and
finally dispersed throughout the whole
OF our worn humanity. And we all
confessed our weakness, the absurdi-
ties of our manias, treasured by the
confession of the others, delighted to
find them like ourselves, worse even
than ourselves.

She listened to us. touch OF surprise

was framed by even, black coils.

All About the Supper.

One who meets with a disappoint-
ment Is fortunate Indeed If he can
make somebody else responsible. Wit
ness the Italian farmer who decided
that, better late than never, he would
hear one of Verdi's operas. He took
his ticket, travelled up to Milan from
the very depths of the country, and, Sc
curing a good seat, listened to Aida"
but he did not like the music at all,
and he wrote to the composer to say
so. Under the circumstances, the far
mer added, he hoped that Verdi would
see the reasonableness OF at once re-
turning him his money. There was
his railroad fare, his ticket of admis-
sion, and his supper at Milan, fol
which he inclosed the bill. The macs
tro entered fully into the humor of the
situation. He wrote back a polite
letter regretting that his music had
failed to please, and inclosing the rail-
way fare and the price of admission.
But he added that, as the farmer would
have had to provide himself with sup
per at home, he could not admit the
justicS of that part of the claim, and
he absolutely declined to pay for the
supper at Milan.

NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK With MRS. PINKIIAM.l

A woman with the blues is a very un.
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical. 4
The condition of the mind known as
I" the blues" nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs of
generation.
1t is a source of wonder that In this
age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
BUSINESS in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't UNDER
stand her condition Should write to
Lynn, Mass, TO Mrs. Finltham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense, and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. f. s. BENNETT,
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol.
lowing letter: :
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for short time,
that terrible flow stopped. =,

ing women, do not suffer longer, when

Water for Hogs.

A bulletin OF the Indiana experiment
station says: OF the different diseases
Of live stock in the state, none produce
greater loss than hog cholera. For the
year ending June 30, 1897, the loss in
the state Of Indiana was $780, 57 head,
valued at $5,396,742. A careful analy-
sis OF the statistics for each township
in the state shows that the streams
play an important part In its distribu"
ton. An investigation made in 1895
and 1896 showed that the breeders OF
pure-bred swine, who escaped hog chol"
era. nearly all used we'll water. Doc
toru Salmon and Smith came to this
conclusion in their investigation of hos
cholera: Perhaps the most potent
agelts in the distribution of hog chol-
era are streams. They may become In
fected with the specific germ when sick
animals are permitted to go into them.
or when dead animals or any part OF
theIl are thrown into the water. They
may even multiply when the water ls
contaminated with fecal discharges or
other organic matter. Experiments in
the laboratory have demonstrated that
hog cholera bacilli may remain alive In
water for four months. Making all due
allowance for external influences and
competition with the bacteria In ma
tural water. we are forced to assume
that they may live at least month in
streams. This would be time enough
to infect every herd along its course.
II the larger streams have such mark
ed influence upon the percentage Of
loss along their courses, it is only rea-
sonable to suppose that the smaller
streams and ponds have a like effect.
1t is common practice to dig out pond
to receive the surface water from
buildings and yards, to dam ravines
and creeks, to catch the water from tile
drains and springs for water for hogs
In ssch cases it follows that they re-
ceive only surface water. 1t is appar-
ent, then, that the first step to be taken
in the prevention of hog cholera is the
securing of a wholesome water supply.
A number of analyses of water from
different sources were made and the
results compiled in the following table:

Feather Ealing.

When fowls are closely confined they
sometimes form the habit of feather
eating, which is one Of the basest vices
to be thought of that is habitually
formed by the feathered race. Why is
this only found among confined poul-
try? Because they are not kept busy
searching for their daily rations, hence
idleness brings 1t on. When you first
notice them plucking feathers is the
time to check it. A remedy is this:
Take the fowl that has become the VIC
tim, and wash the plumage with a solu-
ton of carbolic acid and water: take
one quart of water and one tablespoon
full of carbolic acid, stir well, and it is
ready for use. This, in nine times out
of ten. will effect cure, and will not
soil the finest plumage. To prevent
feather eating, mix little salt with
the soft feed. If this is done, you will
seldom be annoyed with feather eating
fowls in your yard.-B. II. Westlake.
