Bee. venom For rheumatism.

DR.. Terc, medical man Of much re-
pute In Vienna, advocates as an effec-
tive remedy for rheumatism the satu-
rating of the patients body with the
venom of bees. For the purpose he ex-
tracts the venom, treasuring 1t up In
quantity and applying 1t artificially In
the way of punctures. He POUNDS this
treatment on his discovery that rheu-
matte patients do not suffer from a
bees sting to anything like the same
degree as other people. He found that
the tumefaction or swelling that fol-
lows the singing Of bee does not ap-
pear in the rheumatic patient unless
he has been stung several times, while
In some cases the singing is hardly
felt. When the patient suffers himself
to be stung repeatedly, his immunity
against the poison of the bee becomes
complete, and he feels no pain whatso-
ever. What Is more, he gets cured of
his eumatism.-London GloDe.

oughly in the oven and then make a
flannel bag about eight inches square.
Fill 1t with the sand, sew up the open

The Colorado Countess.

New York Times
 At the tiny mountain hamlet of Pal mer Lake. on the very crest of the Con- tinental Divide. 50 miles from Denver, old Countess Murat sits on the porch of her little vine-covered cottage these long summer days. Countess Murat has two claims to distinction. She is the only Colorado Countess. and she was the first white woman. to enter Colo rado: neither of which claims has ever been disputed.
 Cuontess Murat was born at Baden Baden on the Rhine v years ago. In lS4S she was married to Count Murat Not muhch is known of this romance of her life. for the old lady does not care to discuss it. The tradition among the old timers is to the effect that her husband was wild young sprig of the French aristocracy; and that upon his culminating a long series of escapades by marrying the pretty daughter of d German inn-keeper. he was discarded once and forever. They came away i'm mediately to America. Countess Mu- rat travelled with her husband over land to California in 1852. over the old California trail through Wyoming. and back again: overland to Denver in 1858 and once overland from Denver to Montana in 1864. Twice since coming to this country she has been back to Europe for year.
 The Indians held m the emigrant train on which she came into Denver, and she the only woman in the out fit. was concealed among the flour sacks for safety. She and her husband built their cabin on the spot where now stands the Denver Chamber of Commerce No rhophet told them their site was some time to be the center of an opulent busiS-oss section and later settl1ss made the fortune they might have had.

 But Dennis has love affair. Among the monkeys there is one that has taken a particular liking to Dennis Her name Is Nell, and she so much prefers to be with Dennis than with even her own kind that at night when the floor of the cage is opened and the drove is chased below within the in- closure. or night barracks, she simply refuses to leave the company of Den his. Where Dennis is, there is Nell. When Denis sleeps, then Nell sleeps, and often, in the daytime while crowds surround the cage. as Dennis Hops himself on the floor for a Snooze, Nell comes to sleep at least near her friend She does not care much who reads her inmost secret. As Dennis stretches himself. she climbs from her perch, and sits beside him. She touches him about the head and ears to make sure that he is asleep. Then. as she re- gards the unconscious form of her be- loved. sleep comes to her nightly She twins her arms about the little fat neck uf her hero. nestles her cheek against "hisn." and meets him in the land of dreams.
 As for Dennis. he has the proper idea of courting. He lets the other half do 1t all, Why should he not, having proved that this is a success?
 But Dennis's name will be Dennis one of tfese days. He will grow and even. as his mother did. he will travel incognito-piggus ordinarious frank furterius.

was . great Indian lodge that stood directly across what is now Lawrence street. The Indian women used to bring water and wood for the young white woman, the first they had ever seen. and they helped her to make the nrst American flag that ever noafed over Denver. She made 1t out of her own red petticoat, with blue and white cotton bought of a Mexican trader. Count Murat was a well-known char acter in the early days of Denver. Suave. polished and agreeable. he was a general favorite. He tried his luck at mining with some success. and two or three times accumulated what would have been a comfortable little for for tune for some men. But his passion for gambling was inveterate, and he never rested till he had staked his last penny. During his impecunious seas ons he would turn to the trade which seems the natural refuge Of exiled Frenchmen, and shave the populace Tor a living. It came to be one of the at- fractions of pioneer Denver that 1t had a real live count for barber. and tourists made 1t point to be shaved by him. Schuyler Colfax. Horace Gree ley.

Many Tides in Ones Life.
Success:

SuCCeSSs
 If I were called upon to assist in preparing a young mans mind for sue cess in life. l should begin by asking him to forget the Shakespearean aphorism; for it is as false in meta phor as it is in principle. The tides of the ocean ebb as well as flow; and they do both twice in twentyfour hours. The mariner who misses a flood tide does not abandon his voyage, nor does he deliberately sail into the shadows" or indulge in "miseries. He simply watches for the next flood. The tide in the affairs of men also abb and flow many times during the aver age lifetime.
