'To Mrs. Bixby, Boston, Mass:
81 have been shown in the file of the
War Department statement of the
Adjutant General of Massachusetts,
that you are the mother of five sons
who have died gloriously on the field

loss SO overwhelming. But cannot
refrain from rendering you the conso-

pray that our heavenly Father may
assuage the anguish of your bereave-

memory Of loved and lost and the
solemn pride that must be yours to
have laid so costly sacrifice upon the
altar of freedom. Yours very sin

DINNER TABLES FOR HORSES.
Queen Alexandra sends Small stands
for Nosebags to Copen-
hagen Cabmen.

Queen Alexandra has always had
great consideration for horses and
other useful animals, and displayed
much interest some years back in q
movement which resulted i'm the post
ing of notices requesting passengers
to refrain from causing avoidable
stoppages of buses, because of the
strain imposed on the teams. Her
majesty has recently expressed de-
sire to do something for the horses on
the public cab ranks, and has taken the
initial steps, says the London Tele-
graph. In Copenhagen there are in
general use on the carriage ranks
small trestle stands, or tables, on
which the horses nosebags are placed,
so that the animals may feed in great
err comfort; and, as an experiment.
Queen Alexandra has had a dozen of
these tables sent over from Denmark.
Her majesty's notion Is to give them
to a few drivers. in the hope that
their practical utility may be demon
strated and the system extended. The
trestles are extremely light and COM
pact, and the top part, Is formed Of
strong webbing. The whole contri-
vance can be folded into very small
compass, and quite conveniently
slowed away under the seat Of cab
when the vehicle leaves the rank. The
tables have been tentatively used at
the cab rank in Pail Mall within the
past few weeks.

PARAFF1NE FROM THE GULF.
Fine Quality. of the Article Said to
Have Been Found Along the
Coast of Texas.

A box of the purest paraffine,
picked up along the shores of Mata-
gorda island, has been received at
the Southern Pacific Industrial head
quarters and the product is upon ex-
hibition as a souvenir of the sea.
There is a great supply to be Sc
cured at the point where this was
found. In the words of an expert,
.'it is of the very BEST" reports the
Galveston Daily News.
And yet parafiine is known as a
manufactured product, the residue
derived from oil after its second
boiling. Along the coast of Texas II
is cast up by the sea, fully refined,
pure as any that was ever placed
upon the market and ready for its
commercial use. Not only is It to
be found on Matagorda, but upon st.
Joseph's island and all along the sea
coast of Arkansas county.
The theory advanced by Mr.. +. II.
Norris, the discoverer, sets forth a
belief that somewhere in the sea,
near the point where the parafine
was discovered. exists submarine
gusher where oil, heated to the prop
er temperature, rushes forth into
the cold, clear sea water, Is properly
condensed, and, in paroxysm OF
natural forces, existing under exact
ly the proper conditions, parafiine in
an exhaustless supply is thrown
upon the waves to be cast later on
the sand of the beach.

MASCULINE CANDY FIENDs.
of Chocolates In One Summer,
4 and Nothing Extraordinary.

That candy has become the basis of
a bad habit-like tea. tobacco, alcohol
or ice water-has long been admitted
by medical men; that its worst victims
are not women, however, is not so well
known, except to the owners of candy
shops, says the New York Post. The
fact that one man bought and de-
voured 400 pounds of the richest choc-
olates in one summer, and that this
gastronomic feat was not looked upon
as anything unusual by the candy
clerks, will give some idea of the slav-
cry to which the habitual candy-eaters
are committed The man who con-
sumed confectionery" by the hun
.dredweight is young and sound in mind
and body. He generally yields to
temptation Immediately after lunch
eon-although the craving sometimes
becomes uncomfortable at an earlier
hour. He estimates that the candy he
has bought for personal consumption
cost him $3.50 last summer. He has
been an unwilling victim FOR years, and
has frequently Sworn off'--or att
tempted to, The last time was for
three months, and when the self-im-
posed embargo was raised he bought
two pounds of mixed chocolates and
ate them between lunch and dinner.

TABLETS FOR HUMBLE HEROES
Memorials Of Heroic Deeds OF Men
and Women Placed In . Lon
, don Church.

A CLOSER has recently been built
in Aldergates street in London, on
the walls of which are to be placed
memorials of the deeds of heroism
of English men and women in hum
BILE life, says the Magazine Men of
Tomorrow.
Four such tablets have already
been erected, the inscription on two
of them reading as follows: "Wal-
ter Peart, driver, and Harry Bean,
fireman, of the Windsor express, on
July 10, 1898, whilst being scalded
and burnt, sacrificed their lives in
saving the train" "Mary Rogers,
Stewardess of the Stella, March 30,
1899, self-sacrifced by giving up her
life belt and voluntarily going down
in the sinking ship"
Nothing can be more inspiring than
this public recognition Of the brav-
cry and self-sacrifice of obscure
heroes and heroines. Westminster
Abbey is crowded with the tombs Of
England's mighty dead-her great
warriors on land and sea, her poets.
her statesmen, her authors. Each
puts forth silent claim to have
helped mankind, and pleads to be re-
membered by his country; but until
now there has been no public recog-
milton of these humble heroes.
Why should not Americans follow
the example of the builders of the
church in Aldergate?

TEACH THE USES OF GAS.
New York women who Instruct
Their Sisters How to Utilise IL
In Their Kitchens.

One Of the most beneficent Of recent
movements in behalf of good house
keeping in New York city is one orig
mated and fostered by the principal
gas company there. This concern has
six women, known as inspectors and
teachers, who come in contact with
from $50 to 1000 kitchens weekly, run
ming the gamut from Fifth avenues
aristocratic establishments to the sub
cellar of some kosher" east side res
taurant or top floor tenement in Little
Italy. Owing to q widely extended
system of rental in vogue gas ranges
in New York are in use in most unex-
pected Kitchens. The teachers not
only understand every plan by which
all the many ranges in use may be
made to do the work demanded, wheth-
er the supply of gas is big or little, but
are expected to know why range
Doesn't work II it is out of order, and in
many cases to themselves adjust and
regulate It SO that il is in condition to
work before leaving. Owing to the
large foreign born population to whom
the gas ranges are dense mysteries and
to other peculiarities Of the New York
kitchen workers the inspector teach
ers are securing effects that could be
reached in no other way. The work
in New York has been SO successful
that before long a trained peripatetic
gas range cooking teacher and inspec-
tor will be necessity to every live gas
company and new line of work will
be open to domestic science teachers.
