Attacked by Bumblebees.

Near Upper Sandusky, O., John
Boehm was nearly stung to death by
bumble-bees while blowing on a farm
north of the city. He vas following
a short distance behind Charles Bolin-
ger, who was also blowing, and walked
right into a big nest of bumblee-bees,
which had been unearthed by Mr..
Bolinger's pillow. BY the time Mr..
Boehm came to the nest the bees were
thoroughly angered, and, almost be-
fore he was aware Of it, he was COW
cred with them. He was stung sew
eral hundred times before he succeed
ed in scraping the insects from his
face. head, hands and arms. Mr..
Boehm went home as quickly as pos
sible, but by the time he reached there
he was suffering terribly and vomit-
ing almost necessarily. There was no
time to send for a doctor, so Mrs.
Boehm administered home antidotes,
and no doubt saved her husbands life.
Mr.. Boehm's head and face-in fact,
his entire body-showed signs OF
rough usage, and the agony he suffered
was most intense.

WEAKNESS OF WEALTH.
Goddess Magnidcence and Selfish
Productivity of Some Rich
New Workers.

The very rich men of the world are
growing exceedingly tired of the vast
wealth accumulated. In New York
scores and hundreds of men to-day are
paying anywhere from $4,000 to $780,
GOO a month rem for suites of rooms,
not homes which they have built for
their families, but simply apartments
which they have rented for awhile,
a a writer in Homilitic Review. The
goddess magnificence, the selfish prodi-
gality, the overwhelming o%stentation
of the wealth of New York in certain
circles cannot be described; but it is
all an indication of the fact that thu
climax has well-nigh been reached in
the display of what wealth can get.
The world is waiting now to knw
what wealth can give. 1t is the ne
mesis of vast wealth that it brings
its own retribution, and that retribu-
ton is the WEAKNESS of being unable
to find happiness in merely having
things.

There is not an organ in the body but

HOW TO SECURE A ',
 GRACEFUL CARRIAGE :.

The beginning of attractiveness is to
 walk well, Many American women and even American girls are lamentably lack ine in this grace because, unlike 'the ladies of Europe. they have never been instructed in walking. To know what training in the simple .matters of walking will do for a human being contrast the carriage of a well drilled soldier with that of the ordinary man, who 'waiks anyhow. sumping down into his knees jerking his hips, throwing his feet this way and that.
 Well. just as ungracefully as the un- drilled ordinary man walks, just that badly walk most women who have never paid attention to their gait, even worse indeed, only that their long skirts con ceal the unsightliness. And every one or them. short or tall, stout or thin, can secure a walk SO graceful that people will turn to look after her as they do after a counle of trained soldiers in a crowd of ordinary men.
 Certainly the regular military drill Is the best of all exercises for securing graceful carriage. Some of the European society beauties famed for their grace admit they owe 1t to having taken. course in physical. culture from regi- mental drill sergeant. Famous actresses have had themselves put through the same training in order to secure that noble and imposing presence which Is one of their drawing cards.
 To begin, there Is nothing better than that goose step which Rudyard Kipling has immortalized in one of his poems. Ii consists in merely crooking the leg at 4he knee and then raising 1t thus bent at an angle as far as possible toward the waist Do this first with one leg then the other alternatively. If you have never tried it. you will be surprised to

ma what drawing, loosening effect it has on the muscles of the back of the thlgh and those of the lower back, where women are notedly weak.
 Rise five minutes earlier in the morning 1T you have not much time and before you put on your skirts and your corset. if you wear one, do this goose step. !" frst with one lower limb, then with the other, for the full five minutes. You cannot do 1t properly in corset and skirts NOW. next time you see any soldiers notice particularly how differently from the ordipary man they move their knees. The knees of the man who does not. care now he walks are often even crooked and bob unsteadily this way and that, as though they might give way under him. The drilled military man throws his leg out straight and graceful before him without apparently bending his knees at all He gives the main motion from his hips and not from his knees This Is one of the chief secrets of A graceful walk.
 Next, there is the perfectly erect car riage. This does not mean throwing the shoulders back" as we are often wrong ly told. It means holding the chest up ana holding the abdomen in-rather, If you hold your chest up and draw deep,
 
 sink in. Many women develop large stomachs simply from letting the muscles Of the chest slump down upon the stom- ach and become Weak and lax, At the same time that the chest Hops down and inward the points of the shoulders begin to bow outward and round till they sometimes make a woman look as If she were turned the other side foremost. None of this is necessary to a woman at any age. Finally hold your head up consistently and keep your spine in straight line so far as possible
 To recapitulate. hold your chest and head up with determination. and take deep, slow breaths. Don't let your knees wabble and don't make the main motion of walking. from the knee joints. This gives a mincing, extremely ungraceful gait. Walk from, your hips. hold the knees firm and reach out with a long, steady forward swing. Keep 1t up.

A protest of citizens against the laying of . second railway track on Bainbridge Street between Dexter Avenue and Wash ington Street was referred to the Commit tee on Franchises and Privileges.
 The report of the Committee on Streets locating street car tracks on; either side of the subway at the foot of Commerce Street was taken from the table. On mo- ton of Alderman Kohn action on the re- port was deferred until the next meeting of the Council. v
 An ordinance granting the Montgomery Traction Company the right to construct tracks on South Perry Street from Jef- ferson Davis Avenue south to the city limits. a distance of about 150 feet, was adopted. Aldermen Gunter and Mcintyre voted against the ordinance.
 Alderman May introduced an ordinance granting a franchise to the Montgomery Street Railway to construct line of tracks on South Court Street from Jef- ferson Davis Avenue south to the city limits. It was ordered to lie on the table until the next meeting of the Coun- oil

 Alderman Hartley. chairman of the Street Committee, submitted q profile of the tracks of the Montgomery Traction Company on Montgomery Street as To- cated by the committee, for ratification by the Council f,
 Alderman Gunter asked if the tracks had not already been laid on Montsom- cry Street. ,sg.g4
 Alderman Hartley replied that he did not know. rs. tf- -... e ..
 For the information of the gentleman, " said Alderman Gunter. T will tell him that the tracks have been lald."
 President Fleming interposed quietly to say that if there was objection to. the tracks as located they could be changed.
 Alderman Gunter went on to say that as member of the legislative body of the city of Montgomery he was not will ing to be put in the position of allowing any one to presuppose the action of the Council without offering protest. It was customary. he said. for the Street Com mittee to locate certain privileges which action was ratified by the Council. This company. he said. had anticipated the ac- tion of the Council and had laid its tracks against which action he said he desired to record his protest.
 On motion of Alderman May the report of the committee locating the tracks on Montgomery Street was adopted, Alder man Gunter voting against it.
 The Council then, at l0:3o o'clock, ad- journed.

Frost. Snow and Friese .

A young man in this town by the name of Frost thinks he has something com ing to him on account of a very disap- pointing love affair, says The Portland Oregonian. It seems from the evidence that his heart was melted by the charms of a maiden named Snow. The were, in fact, schoolmates, and from the first early season of their attachment Frost looked forward to the time when he could call her his own. But a new person ar rived on the scene by the name of Friese. Miss Snow began to yield to the warmth of the latter's wooing, and before long Mir. Frost was informed that her heart had grown cold to him; she loved Friese only. And now Frost thinks that it Is cold deal and is praying that grace may be given him to play Friese out. But in the meantime. Miss Snow has fallen into another's arms MT. FTost's friends advise him to let the matter drift along. Frost says he's deep enough in misery now.
