fashion, apprentices, street gamins,
charwomen, etcetera, had collected
about us. They blocked the way in

said saucily; "why obstruct the
street,"
And she alighted with all the airs
of a grande dame-the jade! She
swept past the crowd disdainfully
paying no heed to their nudgings or
loud whispers, as they commented
upon her form and features, even as
farmers at a country fair upon their
prize stock.
She beckoned me to follow. We
went up a narrow stairway and en-
tered a room on the second story. She
threw herself into chair, while she
motioned me to another.
Now, my tine gentleman quoth she
'what complaint have you to make Of
Nell Gwyn?"
Nell Gwyn," echoed.
Yes, Nell Gwyn," she mimicked
and made a moue at me.
My face, no doubt, was expressive
of many things, and she burst into
laughter--a laughter of Drury Lane
not Westminster.

Threatened to Cause Her Retire.
ment-How She Was Cured.
Every sufferer from nervous headache
knows how completely it units one for
the duties and pleasures of life. Any
little excitement, or over-exertion, or IT.
regularity brings it on. Sometimes the
pain is over the whole head. Again it
is like u nail driven into the brain, or a
wedge splitting it open, or band tight
ening about it. AT one time it is all in
the top of the head, at another it is all
at the base of the skull.
Most headaches can be traced to some
faulty state of the blood. When the
blood is scanty or charged with poison,
and the nerves are imperfectly nourished
and the digestion weak, one of the conf
monest results is frequent and severe
headaches.
The important thing is to get rid of the
diseased condition of the blood that
causes the attack by the use Of remedy
that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly. What is that remedy? The
experience of Miss Ellen McKenna fur
I
nishes the answer. She says:
"For more than seven years l was n
great sufferer from nervous headache and
dizziness. My stomach was disordered,
and became so restless that could not
sit still any length of time. Dizziness
interrupted my work greatly. At first
the attacks were not so severe, but they
gradually grew more violent, and finally
became so acute that was OH the point
of relinquishing my membership i'll the
different organizations to which l be-
longed."
"What saved you from that necessity"
ga very simple thing; the call of a
member of one of the clubs, who strongly
advised me to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills
before giving up. Iacted on her sugges-
ton at once, and after steadily using this
great blood and nerve remedy for two
months, my headaches and my dizzl-
ness entirely disappeared.
Miss McKenna is secretary of the
Associated Ladies' Guild, and resides at
No. 49 Wait street, RoXbury, Mass. DR.,
| Williams Pink Pills have cured many
hundreds of similar cases, and can be
confidently recommended to drive all
poisons from the blood and to give needed
strength to the nerves. Every druggist
keeps them.

MANILA TO BE REBUILT.
Work Begun to Make 1t Model City
of the Orient.

OF lHC OIICUts
Plans have been perfected and the
work begun of rebuilding Manila and
making it the beautiful city of the
Orient. 1t will not only be clean and
healthful, with wide streets and at
tractive plazas, but it will be CAPT
tai of art as well. 1t is seldom that
such an opportunity has presented
itself in the Orient to make model
city, says the Worlds Work, and the
insular government, with the active
cooperation Of the United States gov
eminent. is taking every advantage
of it.
For example, for years open bitches
throughout the city have been used
for sewage purposes, so that the pub
lie health has been put in jeopardy.
These bitches will be made into clean
canals, spanned by numerous bridges
Pleasure boats will ply on them. A
complete sanitary sewerage system
will replace the present bitches.
But the most interesting feature OF
the reconstruction of the city is the
preservation of the famous Walled
City. which was erected 800 years ago
to repel the Spanish and Dutch invad-
ers. This Walled City has distinct
ly historical as well as picturesque
value.
The work of filing in 155 acres ad-
joining Mallaco will give Manila an
ideal pleasure ground for all the peo-
pie. This drive is favorite resort,
and the view is said to be one of the
most beautiful in all the Philippine
islands. Bandstands will be erected
for popular concerts. Another impor
tant step is the construction of COM
plete waterworks system, for which
there has been a bond issue of $4,000,
600. The water will be piped from
the Mariquina valley, fifteen miles
away.

A Tribute to Weather Conditions
In Western Canada.

During the early portion of Febru-
airy, of this year. the middle and
Western States suffered severely with
the intense cold and winters storms.
Trains were delayed, cattle suffered,
and there was much general hardship.
While this was the case, throughout
Western Canada, now attracting so
much attention, the weather was per-
feet.
One correspondent writes, I'VE are
enjoying most beautiful weather, the
gentlemen are going to church with

no heavier outer clothing than that
afforded by light jackets. In contrast
with this it is interesting to read in

The Annual Tax Sale.

On Monday of this week occurred
the annual TreaSufer's tax list sale
and 80 pieces of real estate were dis
posed of, bringing in 1886 %, record
breaking real estate business for one
day, considering the number Of tracts
sold and not the price.
Twelve mulct tax sales were made
on bids of one-half of one per cent
and one per cent of the tax due, which
amounted to only 500 Is, for taxes
amounting to over $4,000. 1t appears
that such a sale carries with it the
redemption of the property by the
owner at the price for which it is bid
in, plus the added costs, and II 80 is
another instance of the ridiculous
ness of the mulct tax farce. The am
cunt realized will not begin to pay
the cost of the sale to the county, and
gives saloon keeper an easy way OF
