Caused GarfieId's Death.

A few drops of henbane admins
tered to sick woman in Freeport
H., by the doctors error 80 years
before led to the assassination OF
James A. Garfield and the succession
of Chester A. Arthur as president of
the United States. says a Chicago
dispatch. This bit of history hither-
to unpublished was revealed by
Mrs. Frances Marie Norton, sister of
Charles J. Guiteau, the assassin.
"My brother Charles was crazy,
it's true; crazy as a loon, on some
subjects, including religion and pol
itics. Not long before he was born
my mother was Ill and the doctor
gave her henbane by mistake. 1t
gave her brain fever. from which
she hardly recovered, and 1t affected
him."

COMMON
WASHTUB
In FRANCE

Washing machines and clothes
xyringers. such as are in common
,,sa IN the United States. are not
Xh,rovn in France. In fact. the con-
ditions do not seem to be favorable
for their introduction. The family
wash in France is done way from
Y the home. at one of the laviors pro-
.xided in every town and city.
One of these establishments is
owned by the city of Rheims, and
There are others conducted by indi-
yiduals. The lavoir municipal ac-
commodates about 800 washerwom-
en- at one time. and the others from
| 20 to so each. Each woman has a
stall, which is rented, including
water, at centimes. or 1 cent an
hour. Here she lays the garments
on a piece of wood, beat them with
a club, the same as did the washer
women Of century ago. In some
cases she may scrub the clothes with
an ordinary scrub brush, using soap.
Some of the municipal establish
ments have large machines for wash
ing and for drying, for which they
charge the washerwomen a nominal
price by the piece. They are run
by steam or electric power, but are
in use only in the larger cities. A
revolution in laundry methods must
take place before there can be a
market in France. for our washing
machines.
Several bathing establishments in
Rheims-and this is true of other
French cities-have portable bath
tubs, which are placed on two-wheel
vehicles provided with a large iron
boiler filled with hot water. AS or
ders for baths to be. delivered at the
doors of the residences are received
the boilers are filled with hot
water, and the bath-laden vehicles
each pulled by two men, start off for
the delivery. The bath tub is filled
with the hot water and carried into
the residence, and while the family
bath is going on the vehicle may fill

This, of course, was not the first
time the Judgment of Paris has been
adverse. Our school days were fill
ed with the story of the dire decision
given when Juno, Minerva and Venus
appeared with the golden apple in
scribed ''to the fairest' and left
the award to Paris. Juno offered
the bribe of power, and Minerva,
goddess of wisdom. tempted with
the bait of intellectual glory. But
Venus won hands down with the
promise of the fairest woman in the
world, and. true to her promise,
helped Paris to carry off Helen, the
wife of Menelaus, wherefrom fell
many woes upon Ilium and all the
sons of Priam.
The habit which Paris thus con-
tracted, of preferring beauty to
wisdom or power. has stuck ever
since. When the tickle Parisians be-
held the fruit of Kentucky culture,
their disappointment was so keen
that they forgot their famed urban
ity of manner and brutally hissed
the girls wherever they appeared on
the streets of the French capital
The French press also ridiculed
them until. in very despair, the
chosen 40 were driven to the humilia
tion of explaining that they had been
selected for their popularity, rather
than their beauty. 1t was tragedy,
indeed. In vain might any COM
forter whisper: "Yes, dear, but
beauty is only skin deep. Hand
some is as handsome does" In vain
might the lover of poetry quote
Charles Kingsley: "Be good, sweet
maid. and let who will be clever"
No woman was ever consoled by
such philosophy. Nor were the
Kentucky peaches" able to wipe out
the memory of Paris insults even
by their later adventures in Ireland.
where one enamored son of the
blarney stone successfully offered
his heart and hand and ancestral
potato patch to every member of the
party.
But now they are back once more
in the blue grass, and telling all
about the affair. Here is the final
word on the subject. Spoken by a
maiden from Paint Lick, KY, it
voices the collective indignation of
the entire forty:
at is true that we were hissed by
some ill-natured French persons
We were not chosen for our beauty
but for our popularity and that's
what we stand on. 1t seems they
had sent word ahead that we were
a crowd of summers. I will say for
the Frenchman in particular and
the European men in general that
they are about the ornerist, low
down. insolent. conceited and dis
gusting set of males at large"

PURPOSE or THE COURT.
IA Understood by a Lawyer Who
Know How to Circum-
vent It.

Hon. A. G. levitt, lawyer, politician
and man of sarcastic wit, was once
trying a case in the supreme court in
elfast, Me-. his home city. The Judge
presiding. before being called to the
bench, had tried many cases against
Jewett, who did not entertain a very
high opinion of his ability, relates the
Boston Herald.
In his closing argument Jewett, in
defiance Of the rules Of the court,
started In to read some law to the jury.
The court pounded on the bench and
said: "Mr. Jewett, you must not read
law to the jury in your closing argu-
ment." Jewett kept on reading with
out SO much as a glance at the court.
The court, in thunderous tones, order
ed him to stop.
Jewett, who had by this time read
all he intended to read, turned calmly
to the judge and said: did your
honor address me-"
II said," roared the Judge, you
must not read law to the jury in your
closing argument. l will give the law
to the Jury. What do you suppose
the court is here for?"
"What is the court here for?" re-
sponded Jewett, in high falsetto, Il
suppose you know, sir, to keep order,
with the aid of, the sheriff, SIR. with all
due respect to the sheriff. sir"

CHILD'S AWFUL SKIN HUMOR.
Screamed with Pain-Suffering Near
ly Broke Parents Heart-speed-
lily Cured by Cuticura.

81 wish TO inform you that Cuticura
Remedies have put n stop to twelve
years OF misery | passed with my son. As
an infant l noticed on his body C red
spot, and treated same with different
remedies for about five years, but when
the. spot began to get larger l put him
under the care of doctors. Under their
treatment the disease spread to four diff
ferent parts of his body. The longer the
doctors treated him the worse it grew.
During the day it would get rough and
form like scales. At night it would be
cracked, infiamed, and badly swollen, with
terrible burning and itching. When /
think of his suffering, it nearly breaks
my heart. His screams could be heard
down stairs. The suffering of my son
made me full of misery. L had no ambi-
ton to work, to eat, nor could l sleep.
One doctor told me that my sons eczema
was incurable, and gave it up for a bad
job. One evening L saw an article in
the paper about the wonderful Cuticura
and decided to give it a trial. / tell you
that Cuticura Ointment is worth its
weight in gold. and when | had used the
first box of Ointment there was a great
improvement, and by the time l had used
the second set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment,
and Resolvent, my child was cured. He
is now twelve years old, and his skin
is as fine and smooth as silk. Michael

on one or two occasions when l tried
q small quantity Of coffee which

seemed weak-that was because we
