The duchess Of Bedford. who died In
1859, was rather weakminded. and I'M
happily her education did little to dis
guise the defects which nature had i'm.
posed upon her. Her great dread was
to have a visitor at Woburn abbey
who would ask her hard questions
about the foundation and history OF
the party she always asked man OF
higher rank to meet him. so that she
might not be taken In to dinner by
the savant. Once, as bad luck would
have 1t. she got Lord Stanhope. the
historian, who. though he had to take
her in to dinner. was none the less a
savant. As soon as he sat down to
dinner he began the dreaded inquiries
about the date of the abbey. The poor
duchess, much frustrated said:
81 have a very poor head for these
historical things. but ! will tell you all
know The founder was Crusader
who. finding himself in great danger
In battle, vowed that IL he got home to
Europe safe he would do anything the
Pope told him. He got back safe and
went to Rome and the Pope told him
to build a Cistercian abbey-and he
built Woburn abbey. That's all ]
know"
Lord Stanhope said: That's exact
ly what wanted. for II you can tell mo
which Pope 1t was can approximately
Ak the date"
oh" said the duchess. 81 always
understood IT was the Pope Of Rome"

WHAT THE STOMACH DloesTs.
heterogeneous Materials Only Dealt With
by That Organ.

One curiosity of digestion is un.
doubtedly that which has reference to
the work of the stomach itself. The
popular notion that the stomach "di.
gests everything is utterly erroneous.
For the stomach has little or no power
to affect starches. sugars and fats, and
as these foods make up the bulk of our
daily nutriment it may therefore be
said that the organ in question plays
only small part in digestion. Yet
that part is important enough. fEe
foods over which the stomach exerts
its power are what are called nitro.
genous' materials. They are repre-
sented by becfjuice, white Of egg and
milk and similar substances. Such
foods are changed by the stomach in
to "petones," while the starch, sugar
and fat are passed onward to be di.
gested in tho intestine.

Startling Bot True.

People the world over were Mortified
on learning of the burning Of Chica-
go theatre in which nearly 800 people
lost their lives, yet more that five
times this number died from pneumo.
mia in Chicago during the same year,
with scarcely passing notice. Every
one Of these cases resulted from cold
and could have been prevented by the
timely use of Chamberlain's cough
remedy. A great many who had rea-
son to fear pneumonia have warded it
of by the prompt use of this remedy,
The following IS an instance Of this
sort: TOO much cannot be said in
favor of Chamberlain's cough remedy,
and especially for colds and influenza.

A Tokyo paper prints the story Of
q 12-yesroId Japanese girl whose o.
sire for popularity, among her p,sys
mates got her fntos ditsiculty. The
uncle OF the child was candy mer-
chant who from time to time missed
cash from his drawer until nearly $40
was gone. A patent catch on the till
stopped the losses. A few weeks
later. however. he was astonished to
nnd his little niece in the custody of
the police on the charge OF burglary.
The child had got into the habit Of
giving small coins from her allow.
ance to her paymates for the sake Of
popularity. She increased these
amounts gradually and then took to
robbing her uncle. This source Of
revenue being shut OF by the catch
on the money drawer. she took to
burglary.

What Japanese Trains Are Like.

The railway traveller in Japan buys
first. second or third class ticket;
or, If he wishes to go cheaper still,
he can get ticket emitting him simp-
ly to stand on the platform! Many Of
the cars can be entered either from
the side or the end. The principal diff.
ference between the first and second.
class coaches is the color of the up.
holstery. None of the cars are very
clean. Many OF the third-class coaches
could serve, without much alteration,
as ordinary pigstys. This is all the
more remarkable when the incompar-
able cleanliness of the Japanese home
life. even OF the humblest, is taken
into Consideration.-Bo okloyers Maya

trItIous FOOD.
According to a writer in the Scien.

gular food for human beings is the
larvae of fly which is common In
parts of California. This insect is
found in such vast quantities in Lake
Mono that II Is washed upon the
shores in vast windows and can be
collected by bushels. The water OF
Mono is very singular. seemingly
heavy and smooth like oil; so much
so that it resists ordinary wind and
refuses to become RULED When the
larvae begin to appear Indians gather
from far and near and scrape them
VI, place the wormlike creatures on
cloths and racks in the sun and dry
them, when trey are beaten up and
husked. looking then like rice. The
Indians call the food kooh.chah bee, "
and many bushels are collected at
this time. That larvae are nutritious
is shown by tie condition OF the In.
dams, who soon grow fat on the rich
diet.

STATE LEADER A
FORMER CONVICT
GOVERNOR OF IOWA PARpoNs
w. N. JORDAN, PROMINENT
IN POLITICS. FOR CRIME
COMMITTED IN 1884.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, Nov. 25.-
Through the issuance of full par.
don and the restoration of privileges
OF citizenship to w. N. jordan by
Governor Cummings, the public has
learned for the first time that one
of the most popular political leaders
in the State and one of the foremost
members of the Des Moines bar is a
former convict.
More remarkable still is the dis
covery that he prepared for admis.
sion to the Bar while locked up be-
hind the bars serving sentence for
obtaining money by false pretences
and fraudulent banking.
Jordan's crime was committed
while cashier of the State Bank of
Baxter, at Baxter, Iowa. in 1894. while
cashier OF the institution. He plead.
ed guilty to the charges, was sen.
fenced to nine months imprison-
ment Sentence was commuted to
a like period in the county Jail.
During his pediod OF Incarceration,
Jordan applied himself assiduously
in the study of law and took the State
Bar examination three months after
coming from his cell. He passed the
examination at the head of the class
of fifty-two applicants and Immediate
ly opened an Office in Des Moines.
To only three or four intimates
was it ever known that Jordan was
former convict. His advance in his
profession was remarkable. He rap
idly forged to the front rank of the
Des Moines bar and became the head
of one of the most prosperous firms
in the city. He was repeatedly urged
to run for Judge and for the Legis-
lature, but caused surprise by de-
clining to accept nomination that
was his for the asking. He was elect
ed president of the Polk County Re-
publican Club. the strongest organ
ization in the State. and accepted.
Since then he has been the acknowl-
edged leader Of his party in Polk
county. All of this time, however,
he had been unable to vote, priv
ilege he cravej. In restoring this
privilege the record OF the Governors
office disclosed his strange story.
