Chewing milk is not a pastime nor a
fashion nor yet a commercial enterprise.
1t is one of the newest cures, or, rather, a
means to one of the newest cures, being
the latest improved, not to say approved,
method of taking the tactical fluid. 1t is
prescribed in all cases where milk is the
chief article of diet-such as brain fag,
nervous exhaustion and prostration and the
rest of them so common to America and
Americans that they all come under the
general head of 'our national malady.'
Milk, taken regularly every few hours, is.
so the doctors say, the best of remedies for
all nerve troubles. Few human stomachs,
however-whether because of the nerve
troubles or not isn't -known-can digest
milk If drunk in the usual way, and in
spite of all it's other virtues, it is sure to
nigh indigestible mass. Chewing milk in
in the mouth. and sends it into the stomach
than the large mass. These are the princi-
pies upon which doctors recommend
chewed milk for invalids and they advise
well persons not TO despise it. Already
many persons nave become converts to the
new order of milk mastication. It's a little
awkward learning to chew the liquid at
first, but, once mastered, they say
there's quite a fascination in the thing.
At almost any restaurant nowadays are to
be seen a number of men and women with
tall schooners of milk before them and a
queer objectless working of their jaws,
which, If you didn't know better, might
make you think them mildly crazy. But
they're only chewing milk.

WAS A REAL PERSON.
st. Cecilia, Patron of Music, Was q
Martyr, Not q Myth.


New York Press.
That st. Cecilia. patron of music and
musicians, was once a human being with
human interests and habits and not a mere
myth or a fanciful creation of the painter
who has made us so familiar with the rapt.
upturned face gazing into heaven is en-
phasized by some discoveries in Rome.
There has been a tradition that the church
of ST. Cecilia in the Eternal City was built
over the site of the residence occupied by
st. Cecilia and her husband. st. Valerian.
Recent discoveries ten to confirm the
truth of this tradition.
With the permission of Cardinal RAM
polla ell Tindaro, the titular protector of
the church. archaeologists have been ex-
cavating under the pavement of the church
and AVE found there the remnants OF an
ancient Roman house built upon the ear
Hest models, with later walls belonging to
the imperial epoch. In its original form the
ediice was evidently luxurious, as indi-
Gated by a great hall in the form of a ba-
silica, a niche for household gods and a
fine bathroom. The bathroom is important.
for, according to the traditions regarding
st. Cecilia, IL was here that she met her
death. She was converted to Christianity
after her marriage, so the story runs, and
displayed all the zeal of a convert, bringing
upon herself the doom of q martyr. The
decree was that she was to be scalded to
death in her bath, and a bathroom adjoin-
ing the right transept of the chuBch has
been shown to the devout for years as the
spot in which she gave up her life for her
religion. The discovery of the new bath
room leads the archaeologists to believe
that they ave found the real room of her
m~artyrdom, although they admit that the
remains in the transact may have been a
part of the original bathroom, which was
large and magnificently fitted up. The
work of e~xcavating Is still in progress. and

STUMP SPEAKERS PRICES.
Pay a Dishonor in 1872, Now a Regu-
lar Campaign Expense.

L. A. Coolidge, in Ainslee's Magazine.
Campaign orators in the service of the
national committees are well paid for their
work. This is not generally understood.
and it was not the case until comparatively
recent years. In the earlier days they usu-
ally rendered volunteer service. So uni
versal was the custom that discredit at
tached in the public mind to a political
speaker who received compensation. IN
the campaign of 1872 Carl Schurz, then a
senator from Missouri. was charged with
having been paid 500 a speech for his ad-
vocacy Of the election of Horace Greeley.
The charge made something of a scandal at
the time, and although Schurz denied the
payment of this specific sum. he was never
able wholly to clear himself of the faint
which was supposed to attach to receiving
any pay whatever. He had a bitter contro-
versy with Roscoe Conkling I'm the Senate
about 1t, during which Conkling, in his SUI
percilious way, expressed his contempt Of
the practice of which he thought SchurZ
had been guilty. Nowadays campaign
speaking has become a matter of regular
employment, although, of course, payment
is by no means universal, and the most con-
spicuous Orators-especially those who hold
a high place in the party-render volunteer
service. and will accept nothing beyond
their travelling and hotel expenses. The men
in charge of a presidential campaign prefer
to pay on the spot for what they get. This
is far better than TO leave obligations out
standing to be satisfied in the distribution
Of offices after the election.
1.-THE ordinary campaign speaker receives
$50 a speech and his expenses. It is said
that in the campaign of 1896 one very eff
fective and brilliant gold Democratic orator
was paid $500 a speech by the Republican
national committee. This represents the
high-water mark-in payments of this kind.
In some cases those who do not receive a
stipulated price expect 'honorariums,'
which really amount 10 the same thing.
and which sometimes reach high figures.
The day of volunteer work for national
committees seems TO have passed. The
men employed at headquarters of any party
are paid as regularly and as generally as IL
they were in any other employment"

FIAT PAPER MONEY COUNTRY.
The Finances of Guatemala in a De.
pI0rable Condition.

CITY OF MEXICO. June ~2.-Travelers
from Guatemala say the government Is in
a most unsatisfactory condition financially.
The executive issued a proclamation of
amnesty to all absentees who were unfa-
vorable TO his administration No result
came from this and over 1000 more of the
leading business men lave left the coun-
try. The government issued from Sc, 0OO,O 900
to $,00.00 of paper money on which the
exchange is $50 per cent. There is practical
ly no money in circulation. Checks are
used which are good only at the place they
were taken from. The travellers say a po-
Iitical movement of great moment is on
foot that will probably adjust all matters
within the next ninety DAYS.

CHICAGO. June 2.-The Times-Herald
says: ''The Industrial Trades Union, the
organization of w~orkingmen which was
formed soon after the labor troubles began
by the men who wanted to work. is arrang-
ing to branch out into a national organiza-
ton on lines which eliminate all the objec-
tionable features of the old labor unions.
The movement for a national body which
shall nave local councils in the large cities
of the country is being pushed by the Of
ficers of the Chicago organization. The new
national body is to be formed on the basis
of individual right. 1t will be the cham
pion of free labor and Will oppose strikes.
The plan is to appoint fifteen or twenty
men from different trades to form the ma
tional executive council which will carry
on the work of organization. The head
quarters will be in Chicago. One of the
objects of the national body, as announced.
is: To secure to all citizens their inalien-
able rights and secure employment in their
particular line whenever obtainable. with
out interference and without paying unjust
and exorbitant tribute therefor"

TWO DAYS CENSUS WORK


The first two days work of the census
enumerators in this district has been high
ly satisfactory to Supervisor Clifford. IL
lie estimated that the reports forwarded on
postal cards TO Washington on Friday
night from Indianapolis, aggregated $1,000
names. Some of the enumerators find they
will be compelled to do some night work
in order that they find all the people in
their districts. In many instances they
have found that not only the men are away
from home all day. but the women spend
part of each morning and afternoon away
from home. In order to see these people
the enumerators must call on them In the
evenings.

Conservative Prejudice Against Them
Rapidly Fadfng.

Baltimore American.
This year there seems to have been un-
usual interest taken in the question OF the
entrance of women into medicine. When
the pioneers of he movement first lifted
their voices and demanded admfttance 10
the profession. the opposition was bitter
and the cutlery violent Only the other day
the Chinese minister noted with surprise
that there still exists in this country a
prejudice against the female physician. he
advised young women to &c to China to
practice the healing art. as there they
would find a welcome and no traditions
against them. II is also worthy OF note
that he gave this advice while addressing
the graduates at the commencement OF
a woman's college, certainly a marked
concession of the usual Oriental attitude
towards the weaker sex 4

but as a speaker In our own city the other
day pointed out. IL Is chiefly among women
themselves that the woman physician finds

force. Still, the establishment OF separate
colleges for women, their nourishing con-
dition. the number OF their graduates. the

ates, n the comfortable incomes de-
rived by many from their chosen profess
sion. are all strong proofs tina this con

nine skill is growing every day.
The grand field now opening before them.
and in which male competition is practi-
cally shut out. IS medical work as mission
aries In the East. The various churches
have adopted the plan of having women
educated specially for this work. and by
sending them into the homes OF Eastern
nations. they get in the closest possible
touch with the people. A few native wom-

East. the practical reconstruction of their
lives. the benefit. through their greater
health. to the entire physical vigor OF the
nation. and the gradual assimilation Of the
ideas OF the West. In fact, In the woman
physician a new and potent factor has en-
tered into the problem OF civflizing the
Orient, and, although the possibilities so
disclosed are but beginning the work OF
development. IL is impossible to say how
soon the restrictions OF custom and tradi-
lions will fall before so powerful a hold

GROVER CLEvELAND's ADVICE.
HIS Answer to Question, Docs q
College Education Pay.
Saturday Evening Post.

Saturday Evening Post.
Many 4 college-bred man labors IN the
field of usefulness without either wealth
or honors and frequently with but scant
recognition OF any kind, and yet achieves
successes which, unseen and unknown by
the sordid and cynical, will bloom IN the
hearts and minds of men longer than the
prizes of wealth or honors can endure" he
says.
Further on in the article is this: Parents
should never send their sons to college sim
ply for the purpose OF educational orna-
mentation. The fact that parents have the
fate of a son largely in their keeping should
not only enlist their parental love and
pride, but should at the same time stimu-
late their parental judgment. Further
more, they should be constantly mindf
that they have I'm charge not only a son
but an uncompleted man who Is soon 10
become their contribution to the manhood
of the world. They therefore owe a dual
duty which demands on the one hand that
the education of the son be undertaken as
a help to his success In life and on the
other that this education shall promise for
the maturing man the equipment necessary
TO insure his value as an addition TO civil
lied humanity. Before he leaves home TO
enter upon his student life his sympathy
with these purposes should be fully aroused
and he should be impressed with the i'm
portance OF keeping them steadily In view.
He should also take with him 10 his new
surroundings a love of truth and honor. a
cheerful. manly disposition and truly demo-
cratic inclinations- With these his coll
legiate advent must be suspicious and his
future life we'll guarded against failure.
Lacking these. his way is made IMMENSE
ly more difficult and uncertain"
