moreland, England. GO years and died
at the age of 90. During the early part
of his life his benefce brought him only
f12 a year. 1t was afterward increased
to Els, which it never exceeded. On
this income he married, brought up
four children and lived comfortably
with his neighbors, educated a son at
the university and left behind linn
upward of thousand pounds.
With that singular simplicity and in
attention to forms which characterize
a country life. he himself read the
burial service over his mother. he mar
ried his father to a second wife, and
afterward buried him also. He pub
lished his own banns of marriage in
the church with a, woman he had
formerly christened. and he himself
married all his four children.

THE NEW BABY

Opens up a new world to the loving
mother. If it is a strong, healthy baby
that new world is a world of happiness.
If it is a weak, fretful child the new
world is full of anxiety. 1t has been
proven in thousands of cases, that the
use of Or. Pierce's Favorite Prescrp-
ton makes all the difference between
strength and weakness i'll children.
Healthy, happy mothers have healthy,
happv children "Favorite Prescrip-
ton gives the mother strength to give
her child. 1t makes the baby's advent
practically painless and promotes the
secretion of the rourishment necessary
TO the healthful feeding of the nursing
child.

scription and can say it is just what you adver:

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Currants are delicious when served
with bananas. Slice the latter fruit and
add plenty of sugar because of the
acidity of the currants.
For cleaning a hairbrush use a weak
solution Of soda water. When tepid,
shake the bristles in it. They will be
cleaned without being weakened.
Space in a closet can be much in
creased by using hangers or wire forms
hung on Stats put across above the
wooden strips that hold the usual
hooks.
How do you get the parafin on top Of
the jelly? Put piece that you think
when melted will cover the jelly in the
glass. Pour the hot jelly in. The wax
will come to the top.
When you wash handkerchiefs, col
lars, etc, put them in a FELLOWSHIP be-
fore they go into the boiler. You spend
no time fishing for them, and they
don't get lost or thrown out with the
suds.
Pineapple juice drained from the
fruit and mixed with currant, lemon,
blackberry or raspberry juice makes a
delicious drink. A few wedges left to
float in the lemonade bowl improves
the favor of that beverage.

Alaska DriftyyOOd.

No trees grow anywhere on the coast
Of western and northern Alaska. and
yet these shores for thousands of miles
and the islands Of Boring sea are
strewn with immense quantities Of
driftwood. in places piled high on the
beach, bearing good testimony to the
work Of the rivers. This drift is the
salvation of the Eskimo, furnishing
him with fuel and material for houses,
boats and sleds. The entire northeast
ern half Of Boring sea is very shoal,
less than 500 feet in depth, while the
southwestern half is mostly about 49,
900 feet deep.

WORK IN A LIGHTHOUSE.
Daily Tasks Performed In Keeping
the Lamps bright.

The duties of the lighthouse keeper
are many and important. The top Of
the tower is usually tiny room, all
glass windows. The lantern is in the
center of the room. 1t Is a great prism
Of glass, in shape like a beehive. The
lamp is set into this, and the lenses
magnify the comparatively small light
OF the lamp and make it great beacon
seen far off over the waters. Should
the luminant be a f1ashlight, there is
machinery to be wound up every few
hours TO cause it to revolve. At sunset
the keeper climbs the steep steps in the
high tower, takes down the curtains
that darken it throughout the day and
sets the lamp inside the lantern. At
midnight the lamp is changed. A fresh
ly filled one is put in the place of the
first lighted one.
When storms are raging or fogs pre-
vailing, the keeper stays awake to
wind the machinery that keeps the fog
signal booming over the water. Many
sleeplcss nights are thus spent by the
light keepers in devoted vigil of the
aids to navigation. At the gray of
dawn the keeper is again climbing the
steep iron ladder to the tower top. Be
fore the red rim of the sun appears the
lamp is extinguished. the fine prismatic
lenses are covered, and the huge panes
of glass that form the walls of the
room are curtained. The large lamp is
carried down the flights of an almost
perpendicular ladder and when filled,
trimmed and cleaned is ready for the
sunset hour. The work of the keeper is
not concluded with this feat. The most
perplexing portion of the daily routine
is now to be performed.
The light keeper must give an ac-
count of his stewardship. A record is
kept Of every gill, pint, quart and gal
lon of oil that is nightly consumed by
the lamps, the fractional parts Of inch
es of wick burned, the lamp chimneys
broken and the general consumption of
! all supplies furnished yearly in large
| quantities by the recommendations

PreaHed Flowers.

Several methods Of preserving the
natural color of pressed flowers have
been suggested, but the best, 1t is said,
Is that used in the New York botan-
ical garden. After the specimens
have been under pressure for a day or
two they are laid in papers heated in
the sun, and this is repeated until the
drying is completed. This, 1t is said.
preserves the colors perfectly.

QUO VADIS PRESENTATION
TAKES THE PUBLIC FANCY

Quo Vadis" opened to an old-time Or
pheum audience last night and the per
formance may be scored as a success.
The Elleford Company promised good
scenery, good costumes and a merito-
rious performance at a moderate price
and have fulfilled their agreement.
While last nights presentation was in
every way interesting, comedy and the
lighter drama is probably the forte of
the organization and is, indeed, so claim
ed by Mr.. Elleford.
The dramatization of so well known a
work as Quo yadis'' was sure to draw
good audiences to the Urpheum, but,
without detriment to the visiting com
pany's rendition, "Quo Vadis'' is not a
satisfactory book to dramatize. You
can't condense the series of stirring
scenes and historical epochs dealt with
by the Russian novelist into two hours
and a half performance; neither can an
actor who. six nights out of seven, makes
merry in modern attire. don toga with
the ease of a professional who plays the
Roman warrior all the year around.
Orpheum audiences as a rule want to
laugh, and they will have ample oppor-
tunity in later performances of the Ellie
ford Company. Meanwhile it is surpris-
ing to see the seriousness with which
they take the graver situations of Quo
Vadis"
Liberal applause was bestowed last
night at every point and the audience
seemed thoroughly to enjoy the whole
performance.
Carl Berch possesses the requisite ply
sique and sentiment for the role of Pc
tronius and presented a clearly planned
and dignified impersonation of the ar

and the company thoroughly respon-

no weak spots in the cast, the company

arranged Altogether the Ellefords have

A BOOM FOR
OUR COFFEE
The United States May Give Its
Islands a Monopoly of
Trade.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-All the cof-
fee consumed in the United States can
be grown in the islands which have
been acquired since the outbreak of the
Spanish war. This IS the conclusion
reached by the Bureau of Statistics of
the Treasury Department after a care
full study of the coffee producing capa-
bilities of our new insular possessions.
The islands in which coffee can be sue
cesSfully grown are Hawaii, Porto Rico
and the Philippines. Porto Rican coffee
in the markets where it is well known.
is regarded as the best in the world.
and it is the conclusion of the Bureau
of Statistics that when the coffee plan
tations have been developed in the Phil
ippines and Hawaii all of one million
dollars or more which the United States
sends abroad every week for coffee can
be expended among the inhabitants of
our own islands. Porto Rican coffee
has long commanded high prices in the
European markets, though 1t has been
comparatively little known in the
United States
The developments of coffee culture In
Hawaii during the past few years have
been very satisfactory, both in the
quality of coffee produced and the
prices realized. In the Philippines the
product is of a high grade, and the
fact that the physical conditions and
climate of the islands are very similar
, to those of Java, the greatest coffee
producing island of the world, suggests
great possibilities TO those who desire
to see American money expended under
the American flag. The fact that the
United States is by far the greatest
coffee-c consuming country in the world,
and is steadily increasing her consump-
ton, suggests that American capital
and energy may turn their attention to
this promising field now opened in the
islands where American enterprise can
safely enter upon business undertake
ings.
/ Our coffee importations during the
nine months ending with March, 1901.
amounted to e17,334, 900 pounds, with a
value of s45, ,21s, ,O00 sum nearly s5,e00.-
900 in excess of the value of the coffee
imports of the same month of the pre-
ceding fiscal year, indicating that for
the full fiscal year the total value of the
coffee imported into the United States
will be about $50. .000, ,000

the West Indies in particular and from
lean Republics.
special West Indian Commissioner
has been appointed and sent to Cuba
and Porto Rico for the purpose of prop
erly presenting the enterprise OF those
islands.
The site chosen is situated in The SUBJ

bank of the Ashley river and covers
about 16o acres Electric railroads make

The whole process of tea making,

pected to show the sugar cane industry
to the best advantage.
Not simply in rivalry of West Indian
sugar and coffee exhibits does Mr. Knapp
urge Hawaii's representation at his Ex-
position, but he lays particular stress on
the opportunity for presenting Hawaii ia
a favorable light to the numerous tour
lists who will throng to Charleston dur
ing the Exposition.
I'm ordinary times said Mr.. Knapp.
fifty thousand tourists come annually
to Charleston, to stay there, or en- route
| to Florida and the Gulf States. The Ex-
| position would greatly increase the NUM-
| ber and bring them all directly to
| Charleston. An exhibit and a distribu-
ton of literature should prove a great
card for this Territory.

attention of tourists in their direction
and are spending good deal Of money

Territory would be well expended and

| Knapp returns to the Coast on the So

on the question. Oregon has already vo-
ted literally towards the project.
