The National Consumers league has

May, 1899, by the federation of the Con-

been formed in New Jersey, Ohio, Ken

though in the main they aim to pro-
mote wholesome conditions Of employ

Sanlnlea Free
Relief For Russell Sage.

There is pending in the state legis-
lature of Minnesota bill for the re-
lief of Russell Sage. The fact that Mr..
Sage is in need of relief will doubt
less come as Il painful shock to his
host of friends. Poor Uncle Russell!
We had never thought it would come
to this
1t appears that some years ago there
was a village in Minnesota known as
Reeds Landing. The place was incor-
porated and seemed to be fiourishing.
Bonds were issued for the purpose of
securing money wherewith to improve
Reeds Landing. Some of these bonds
were bought by Mr.. Sage. He drew
his interest fer awhile, and then Reeds
Landing fell into decline. Something
gave out. People who had expected it
to become the great metropolis of the
north began to move away. Others
followed, and at last all that was left
of Reeds Landing were a few holes in
the ground, some empty cans and
those bonds
Now Mr.. Sage wants relief, and the
generous legislature of Minnesota ap-
parently proposes to give it to him by
the passage Of a special act for the
payment from state funds of the bonds
in question. Some people may be un-
N Nyhn \ r
Mr.. Sage bought horse and the horse
had died he would have been justified
in asking the legislature to tax the
people of the state in which the horse
was raised so that he-the purchaser
might recover the price he had paid.
Mr.. Sage assumed n business risk
when ne bought the Reeds Landing
bonds, and a good many people will
be of the opinion that he should stand
the loss the same as other investors
are obliged to do in similar transac-
tions. But possibly the Minnesota
legislature is going on the theory that
Uncle Russell needs the money, and in
that event there is nothing more to be
said. The thrifty and prosperous farm
ers, lumbermen and miners of Mime
sofa would of course be willing to be
taxed n few cents rather than permit
the old gentleman to suffer. He has
only about $10,000,oJo and has a hard
time getting along.

lhe NIrthnLicnl Duchess.

A very methodical royal lady is the
Duchess of York. Even as a girl she
was most orderly in all her arrange
ments and quite unlike the modern
restless Ga.uSel. The duchess then, as
now, Interested herself constantly in
charitable schemes. and she conducted
her work in an expeditions way. All
her letters were duly docketed and
placed, each packet in its own pigeon
hole, in her writing table. Another
principle of the duchess is to take time
by the forelOck. The amount of knit
ting and needlework she gets through
is surprising. To every country house
she goes she takes her workbag with
her and while chatting with her friends
will knit stockings, clouds, wristletS by
the score. Most of these eventually
and their way to charity.

impressions of oriental customs and
manners of living. He will have plenty
Of room in which to display the differ

In the strongest terms to people ac-
customed to our western civilization.
A holy Mecca will be the meeting place
Of tired and worn pilgrims who will
constantly arrive, make their offer
ings in the various mosques or reli-
gious temples ana disperse. Eight
streets will diyerge from this objective
point, each representing a distinctive
local section of the orient. A street
in Constantinople will be thoroughly
Turkish, even to the vagabond dogs.
Morocco will be represented by 4
street which will illustrate the life and
habits of the Moors. Algerian life will
receive attention, and street will be
borrowed from Algiers for the pur-
pose. Typical illustrations In like

Tunis. Persia, Tripoli and Turkey in
Asia. While looking through these
sections visitors could easily imagine
themselves in the midst Of the ancient

animals, cabins, tents and huts. Res

MarIowe,H RefrouHse Nose,

"When | was little girl" said Julia

iety was my retrOusSe nose. | was in
the habit of stating to my family that
l should some day become great
tragedienne. This amused them not a
little, for neither they nor | knew any
thing of the stage or of actresses. The
idea was plainly my own, but the fam
lily laughed at me and assured me that
such n thing as a tragedienne with n
pug nose had never been heard of.
was impressed with the statement,
and it occurred to me that the nose
might be remedied. SO | sought our
family physician and confded my
troubles to him and begged him to
operate on the offending member. He
was vastly amused, but reassured me
on the subject of noses. For years
was troubled with the idea, but | have
lived TO discover that even a nose is
not a barrier to success"

Cause eofiTaIIeyrnnd's Lameness.

The cause of Talleyrand'S lameness
has long been a matter of dispute.
Some stories have it that the defect
was cOngenital; others that it was oc-
casioned by an accident which beteH
him in his infancy. The most curious
explanation of all is that offered by
writer in The Quarterly Review. TO
quote the very words of our informant
an eminently distinguished diplomat,
says the writer. "Talleyrand's Vienna
colleague. Baron Wessenbcrg, told me
years ago that his lameness was owing
to careleSSness of his nurse, who laid
him down in Il field while she tlirted
with her sweetheart and on coming
back to her charge found some pigs
dining on the infants legs. ! am sure
that Wessenberg told me this as an
established fact. and l am all but sure
that his authority was Talleyrand him
self"
