Dora Meek went to sleep Septemt IT
2s after a violent quarrel with her
sweetheart the night before. She had
been grieving during the day. She
slept soundly for ten days without
giving so much As sign OF awaken
ing, even when ammonia fumes aud
out ioe were used. Then she partly re.
covered after treatment from an os.
teopath. For ten days more she lay
in a stupor, eating when told to, but
not getting up. She frightened up
and told some tales OF visit to heav-
en- and then lost control Of herself and
dropped of to sleep. Prof. Ernest
KlskbTemmer. a spiritualist Of more
than local fame, is not q believer in
the hysteria idea. He is now treating
her and he says she is possessed of an
evil spirit, and while he thinks he can
relieve her from that influence he is
not sure.
Many who have seen the girl lately
think she will die unless some change
for the better comes very soon.

Two well.known officials, one of the
state and the other OF the city, while
warm friends, occasionally get into
arguments as TO the proper pronoun-

word isolate" was used by the city

wv THEY LIKE ERUPTIoNs.
HawsIlans Pray for Volcano to Be-
come Active.

Hawsllans Pray for Volcano to Be-
come Active.
"In Hawaii we pray for Mt. Kilauea
TO become active. and the more erup-
tions there are the better we like it,"
said Philip Peck, a banker Of Hilo, at
the New Willard last night AN
eruption does not HARM" he added
naively.
Doesn't do any harm? Wen, It
appears that Mont Pelee did plenty Of
harm"
That was a different kind of an
activity from Mt Kilauea. In Hawaii,
VIII re Mt. Kilauea has not been dis
turbed for two years. the eruption is
OF slight consequence. But 1t is a
great signt to see the great lake of
lava boil over the sides of the crater
and push its way down into the bowl
like valley which has been formed by
eruptions more violent in the ages
past.
THE sight is such an unusual one
that IL causes a great influx of visitors
each year. and that naturally is a good
thing for the island financially. That's
why we like the volcano to be active.
Kilaueas crater is the largest In the
world. People used to go and sit by
the edge to watch for an overflow OF
the lava. The guides could tell al
most TO the minute wnen these over
flows would occur.
"In 1882 there threatened a great
eruption, and the natives were afraid
that the town Of Hilo would be in
jured. The Princess Ruth. of the
royal family Of Kamahameha, went TO
the mountain down which the lava
had begun to run. With her she car
ried several chickens and one or two
other animals. Standing by the edge
of the crater, she threw up her head
she was one of those lmperial-looking
women and weighed about 4OO pounds.
She called out, addressing the Hawaii
an god:
Pelee. you promised never to hurt
Hilo; now come to remind you OF
your promise
with this she threw the chickens
into the lava. The next day the dis
turbance somewhat subsidized, and the
natives attributed to the princess the
credit OF it."-Washington Times.

NATURES OWN CURE.
HYOMEI CURES CATARRH WITH
OUT DANGEROUS DRUGGING
TO THE STOMACH.

Not until Hyomei was discovered
has it been possible to truthfully say
that remedy for catarrh was known.
This remedy is bresthed through
the Hyomei inhaler for a few minutes
four times a day. and during that
time every particle Of air taken into
the air passages and lungs is impreg-
mated with the germ killing and health
giving Hyomei. 1t is the only treat
ment that cures catarrh.
Stomach druRging often causes dis
ordered digestion or brings on some
other diseases and never makes per-
manent cure Of catarrh. Hyomei not
only kills the germs in the throat and
nose but penetrstes to the minutest
air cells in the lungs and enters the
blood with the oxygen, killing the
germs in the blood. It frees the mu-''
cous membrane from poisonous mi
crobes and gives perfect health.
A complete outfit costs but 81 and
includes an inhaler, dropper ard suffi-
cient Hyomei for more than a months
treatment.
The leading druggists Of this city
have so much faith in the merit of
Hyomei that they agree to return the
money to any purchaser who may be
dissatisfied.

Opium smoking is increasing in
Eastern Siberia and causing the
authorities much anxiety. owing to the
frequent deaths therefrom. The po-

twice as many undiscovered dens.
The craze has not touched the work

w. H. sEWARD's PROPHECY.
Sons Attention Recalled to His
Fathers Words at St. Paul.

Sons Attention Recalled to His
Fathers Words at ST. Paul
Mr.. Friedrich w. Seward, who is
making a brief stop at st. Paul and
Minneapolis while on his way to
Alaska, will no doubt be duly i'm
pressed with the surprising changes
which have been wrought hereabouts
since 1860, when, in company with
his father, William H. Seward he paid
his first visit to St Paul. The ar
rival of the great republican states
man and leader was a great event in
the history of the frontier village, It
was on that occasion that Mr.. Seward
delivered a memorable speech. some
sentences of which have often been
quoted with pardOnable pride by our
citizens as prophetic forecasts of a
great future for St Paul and the
fertile regions beyond it, The visit
OF his son, forty-two years afterwards.
APPLY recalls some of these eloquent
passages. Here is the place. he
said, the central place where the ag-
riculture of the richest region of
North America must pour out its
tributes to the whole world. On the
east, all along the shore Of Lake SUI
perior, and west, and stretching in
one broad plane in a belt quite across
the continent. is a country where
state after state is yet to rise. and
where the productions for the support
of human society in other, old, crowd
ed states, must be brought forth.
Every worth of his reSounding proph-
ecy has since come true He made
another prediction in which read
estate men of st. Paul and Mime
apolis have found much comfort. 1t
was this: Il now believe that the
ultimate seat of government on this
great continent will be found some
where within circle or radius not
very far from the spot on which
now stand, at the head of navigation
on the Mississippi river" This may
not also come true in its exact literal
import. but it no doubt seemed to him
logical deduction from the com
handing geographical position of Min
nesota
Mr.. Frederick w. Seward afterward
accompanied his father to Alaska
subsequent to the acquisition of these
possessions of Russia in North Amer
lea through treaties negotiated by Mr..
Seward as secretary of state. 1t was
somewhere on the Pacific coast, prob
ably San Francisco. that he made
another oft-quoted speech, in which
he prophesied that the Pacific ocean
would become the theater of a vast
commerce, and that the Uniter States
would dominate it. This prediction is
also in train of rapid fulfllment The
scenes which inspired these prophetic
utterances. as now revisited by his
SON. afford abundant proof of the

Interurban and High Speed Roads.

mteTurban electric railroads have
had an immense development in the
rich agricultural districts of the mid
I die western states. It is often said
| that electric roads check city growth
by creating suburban districts. but in
the farming regions, according to the
1 Railroad Gazette. they have had still
greater effect in building up many
small centers of population. The Tn

81 miles of city track in the gas belt
of that state and serves a population
Of $4,000 The interurban lines are
located almost entirely on nriyate
right of way protected by fences and
cattle guards Tests have shown that
4 maximum speed of 5S miles an hour
may be reached and an average cpeed
of IS miles an hour maintained The

Hints for the HOusekeeper.

Housekeepers do not realize how
many delightful vinegars can be easily
made of simple materials readily OBJ
tanned Many of them are found in
frst-class groceries; but the price de-
ters many from purchasing variety.
The cost is very little when they are
made at home and when once you
have become accustomed to their use
you will deem them indispensable ana
wonder how you managed without
them. Their flavor gives delightful
variation to many dishes, especially
the salad dressing.
Chill vinegar-Take fifty small red
chilli peppers, bruise them slightly or
cut them into small pieces and coy
ering with good, strong vinegar,
Parsley vinegar-Gather fresh pars-
ley, pick off the leaves, and fill bot
tie loosely: cover with vinegar; cork
tightly and let stand three weeks:
then pour off the vinegar into clean
bottles. season to taste with salt, cay
cnne, and white pepper.
Corn vinegar-This is a vinegar
many prefer to cider vinegar; use the
following proportions: To each gallon
of soft water, rain water is best, add
a pint Of light brown sugar or mOlas
SEES. if you are not particular to have
white vinegar; one pint of corn
scrapcd from the cob. Put all into a
stone jar Cover with a cloth and set
in the sun for three weeks; by this
time you will have a good vinegar.
Mint vincgar-This, if acceptable, is
nice to use as a cOndiment to serve
with roast mutton when fresh mint is
out Of season. 1t may also be added
to a drawn butter sauce served with
mutton, and a small quantity improves
canned peas or string beans. Loosely
fiji bottle with fresh, tender leaves Of
mint. cover with good vinegar, cork
tightly and let stand for three weeks,
Then pour off into clean bottles, keep
tightly COrkCd.
Onion vinegar-Skin and chop
rather fine three large white onions.
mix with them two level tablespoons
fus graduated sugar and one of salt.
Put them in china dish and stand
in a slow oven for three hours, then
turn into a glass jar or wide-mouthed
bottle, fiji with strong vinegar; cover
or cork tightly and let stand two or
three weeks; shaking several times
each daV Strain hottie and cOrl,
tightly.
Lemon vinegar-This is a substitute
for lemon juice; CRATE the yellow rind
from five lemons, being careful not to
get any of the pth, Squeeze the juice
of three lemons over the grated rind,
scrapc out the pulp. but discard seeds
and white, bitter skin. Cover the rind,
juice, and pulp with q quart of good
cider vinegar; cork tightly and let
stand two weeks; then strain and
bottle
Spiced vinegar One ounce each of
ground mustard, ginger white pepper
mace, and dried lemon peel, quarter of
an ounce each of cloves, allspice, and
cinnamon, and an ounce of celery
salt, and a quarter of a teaspoonful of
cay cnno or a few chopped chilli pep
pors. Put all into a glass jar; pour
over them a quart of scalding vinegar
Cover tightly While hot; let stand
three days, shaking three times each
