The old story of Prometheus is par
able. Prometheus was on terms of in
timacy with the gods. From them he
stole fire, and gave it to men. For this
sin he was bound to the rocks of Mt.
Caucasus, and vultures were set upon
him. They only ate his liver. This
grew again as fast as it was pecked
away. Are his sufferings to be imag-
ined?
Take modern Interpretation of the
parable. There is no cooking without
fire. In cooking and eating the mis-
chief lies. The stomach is overtasked,
the bowels become clogged, they cam
not dispose of the food that is given
them. The impurities backed up on
the liver. Then come the vultures-
the torments of a diseased liver. DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
more than equal to the vultures of dys-
pepsia and its kindred diseases. There
is no more need of suffering from dys-
persia than there Is of hanging ones

and admired by a wide circle of
friends and acquaintance. For
a number of years she has made

frequently visited friends and
relatives here. She was the
daughter of the late Charles l..
and Elizabeth Kemp of this city,
and a sister of Mr. Lawrence b.
Kemp, of the Commercial and
Farmers National Bank, Balti-
more. Early in January she
went to the Johns Hopkins Hos
pital for treatment. Tuesday
night her condition was much i'm
proved and better than it had
been for two weeks, so that her
death from pneumonia and a CON-
plication of diseases was sudden
and unexpected. Miss Kemp's
body was taken from the home of
her aunt, Mrs. j. Alexander
Shriver, 51S Cathedral street,
Thursday morning on a train of
the Western Maryland Railroad,
leaving Union Station at S.2S
O'Clock, and was inferred in Mt.
Olivet Cemetery, this city, by the
side OF her parents in the lot OF
her grandfather, Major Lawrence
j. Brengle. Services were held
in All Saints Episcopal Church,
Rev. Osborn Ingle officiating.
AS mark of respect to the mem
ory of Miss Kemp, the cotillion,
which was to have been held on

If the suggestions of Charles w.
Garfield of New York, are acted upon
the statue of Liberty in New York
harbor will have a flaming torch
worthy of the name. At present the
giant lady bears a brilliant but tins
spark in, her hand, which, when the
outlines of the figure are obscured at
night, cannot be distinguished from a
lov-hanging planet. Mr. Garfield
suggests that a jet of steam be sent UP
through the arm and hand and, as
night settles down the cloud of vapor
would catch the glare of the arc
lamps and have all the appearance OF
a veritable flame. The idea was pre-
sented to his mind by noticing the
appearance of a cloud of steam from
an elevated train upon which search
light from one of the big dry goods
stores played. This arrangement for
increasing the effectiveness of the
great statue might be carried out with
almost no additional expense, as the
government has it's own plant on Bed
loes island for making the lights in
the torch. A pipe carrying steam
could easily be run from the boiler
room to the torch.
