Mrs. George Hopper, widow of the
late Col. George Hopper. who resided
in this city when her husband was
the manager of the Westcott Hotel,
of the middle west. Mrs. Hopper has
made her home i'll Columbus, o.,
since the death of her husband, who
was manager of the Neil House in
that city. Mrs. Hopper recently made
an address before the Altrurian club
of Columbus which attracted great
attention throughout Ohio. Her sub.
ject was "Egotlstic and Altruistic
Growth of Notwithstanding Purpose
In Civilization" In strong terms she
condemned the egotistic spirit of the
American citizen, and went so far as
to predict for America the fate of
great cities of antiquity, Babylon, Min
eveh, Thebes and Rome, sunk by the
terrific blasts which blows from all
the mouths of radkness."
Although we may not know. posi-
lively" said Mrs. Hopper, why these
civilizations were destroyed, we may
aC least compare their strength with
the strength of our own, for there is
no assurance that their fate will not
overtake ours In the future. The ego
istic spirit that is displayed by the
growing monopolies which are draw
Ing closer about the helpless masses
each year, is the same selfinterest
which possessed the savage even if
It Is restrained within certain bounds
by a consciousness Of right and
wrong which the savage did not pos

TOO DESTRUCTIVE.

The woman who was enjoying a drive in the country pointed with rapture to a bcyv of white butterflies which was flying around and around in a dizzy circle. Aren't they love- ly:" she asked, enthusiastically.
 Her companion grunted:: They may look lovely to you, but the farm CTS hate 'em an call 'em cabbage but terflies. They seem harmless enough, but their larvae dcyour eabbaees with enormous rapidity; hence their name. When the farmer sees an unusual quantity of white butterflies hover ing around he looks 10 his cabbages. He knows he will find myriads of It. tie worms on them, and that 1t Is only by the most strenuous meas ures he can save them. This year there have been focks of the white butterflies, and 1t may mean that we are to go cabbageless this winter. At any rate, if you buy any cabbages soak them good long while in salt and water before using them"

ENGLISH SHOES GO uNsHINEp.
London Observer Admits Truth of
 American indictment.

An English reporter, fired with pat riotism on seeing the assertion made by an American visitor that London CTS polished their boots less frequent ly than the people of any other coun- try in the world. set out to disprove the charge.
 He visited number of well-known shoeblacks at important points in London, but what he learned all tend ed to confirm the allegation made by the American
 One shoeblack said he had custom CTS who look like millionaires but get only one shine week. After hearing similar stories from other shoeblacks the newspaper man took up position in Piccadilly Circus and examined the boots of passersby.
 He confesses that of 80 people who passed, the boots of 60 looked as if they had not been polished for week. Twelve of them had their boots well polished, but the remaining eight had to be labeled indifferent.
 After that, nothing was left but to acknowledge that the indictment of the American had some foundation.- N. Y. Sun.

NATURAL BRIDGES

It is commonly believed that nat ural bridges, of which the natural bridge of Virginia is the best known American example, are due to the falling in of cavern roofs, leaving only part to span the stream which the destruction of the cavern has brought to the surface.
 By a study of the North Adams natural bridge Prof. Cleland has been led 10 the conclusion that in this case at least the origin Is quite different. In this case the bridge seems to be due to the solution of the limestone along joint plane near the former course of Hudson Brook.
 At first only small amount of water seepcd along the joint plane, but after a while it made a channel large enough to divert the entire brook under the surface, giving rise t, the bridge. Walcott had previous ly offered a similar theory for the natural bridge of Virginia, and Gle land concludes that, while the falling in of cavern roofs may occasionally give rise to natural bridges, the most common cause for such bridges in marble, limestone, sandstone and lava is that outlined above.

CHURCH PEW HIS BED,
Tramp Finds Rest for His Weary
 Bones in House of Worship.

The janitor of one of Portsmouth's largest churches was given big sur. prise Sunday morning as he stepped into the auditorium after opening the big front doors to allow of the usual airing out He came face to face with a strange and tough.looking man. At first the janitor feared touch of the chills. but he finally brought himself together and inquired of the man what he had been doing.
 The fellow said that he had been en. toying a nights rest on the cushions of pew away down front. Saturday night he was attracted to the church by the singing of the choir during re- hearsaI He found the door open, walked in and sat down
 The music had that soothing ehect and the wanderer fell asleep. He knew nothing more until daylight. when ne awoke wondering where he was at He said that in all his life he had never found a more comfortable bed.
 The janitor looked about, saw that nothing was disturbed and then a- lowed the stranger to go.-Portsmouta. N. H., Times.

Last year, after having my little girl treated by a very prominent physician, for an obstinate case of eczema l resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physi- clans prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint. ment, and Cuticura Pills.

Mrs. M. Wi 0hf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there ,s . kind of dyspepsia that is caused bv i. derangement of the female organism and which, while it causes a distnrh. ance similar to ordinary indigestion cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as stomach tonic but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe, male organism.
 As proof of this theory we call at. tention to the case of Mrs. Mapc;s Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was completely cured by Lydia E. Pink. hams Vegetable Compound after every. thing else had failed. She writes:
 For two years suffered with dyspens. which so degenerated the entire system that was unable to attend to my daily duties. felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ats tasted good and it caused disturbance i'm my stomach. 1 tried different dyspepsia cures. but nothing seemed to help me 1 was ad vised to give Lydia F.

RELIC OF THE MAYFLoWER.
Dishes from Historic Ship Cherished
 as Heirlooms by Denver Woman.

Probably few are aware of the fact, but direct descendant of q signer ol the declaration of independence and a man who crossed to the new world in the Mayhower is living in Den yer. She is Lula Electa Bartlett. great granddaughter of Josiah Bart lett, who signed the declaration of independence. Her great great great grandfather was one of the men who faced privation and hunger to cross the water in the Mayhower.
 Elisha Bartlett remained on the soil later called Massachusetts. It IS from him that Miss Lula Electa is descended.
 Although the Bartletts who came before her ranked with the elite of society and aristocracy, she is happy and content to earn her living work ing as q scamstress.
 Miss Bartlett spends her evenings with many other lonely young wom- on in the Young Women's Friendly club, 2243 California street, and she lives in the simplest manner.
 The home of the Bartlett family has been broken up. The mother died when they lived in Hastings, Neb., and the family scattered. The only son is in Kansas City, one daughter is in Los Angeles with her father and the fourth and last mem- Der of the family is toiling daily in Denver.
 One of the most precious wedding presents received by Miss Bartlett : father and mother when they were married in 1856 was a portion of a set of dishes brought to America by the Bartlett brothers in the May flower. These are the last dishes that are known 10 exist which came over in the old ship in 1920.

VERY SYMPATHETIC.

A rather parsimonious gentleman recently got the better of some oi his acquaintances, who were conIlh' ually pestering him about his nis' gardliness. Goaded to desperation by their taunts, he one day invited his detractors to a dinner. when they made their appearance they were simply astonishcd at the magniheence of the treat provided. Apologies were rendered, and the miaerly individual warmly complimented as well.
