Miss Vanderbilt wanted her. He had tried
to find Mrs Mary Anr Pepper-Vanderbilt,
but she seemed to have vanished. Then she
came, as her husbands lawyers said. with
out urging and at great financial loss to
save her aged spouse. And Mr.. Vanderbilt
smiled a joyous smile when he saw ner
walk down the aisle firmly confidently and
take seat near his counsel.
The confidante of Bright Eyes was at
once called to the stand by the petitioners

derbilt said she was horn in 1867 and was
married to George W. Pepper in 1889 some
where Sd avenue, Manhattan. She was
a stranger in the city at the time. Did she
have her marriage certificate with her? She
had. and it was put In evidence.
When Mr.. Rosenberg. Mr.. Vanderbilts
counsel saw the certificate he became trem-
ulous with excitement. The names of the
witnesses were written by the Same per-
son. he cried. and started series of ques-
tions which the commissioner unfeelingly
blocked. When he said he could prove that
Mrs Pepper-Vanderbllt was a bigamist,

courtroom.
Then the spiritualistic side of the witness
was attached. She had never met Bright
Eyes, she said in answer to a question

that she could not explain the control

bilt would be called by her husbands coun-
sci, eXJudge Griffing, but he caused much
surprise by resting his case at the conclu-
sion of her testimony

first witness yesterday. He was said to

TONS OF SCOT.

A scientific investigator in Gin
cinnati has been trying to arrive at
a definite idea of the amount of SCOT
deposited in the city in the course
of a year. One of his tests was to
place two buckets, three-fourths
filled with water on IL roofs in diff
ferent parts of the city. At the
end of three months careful analy-
sis of the contents of the buckets
to ascertain the amount of carbo-
naceous matter was made. The re-
suit is that in the down town area
the falling SCOT amounts TO 541
tons a month, or Is tons daily. On
a square mile of the city the SCOT
deposit is III tons a month, or
343,72S pounds, an average Of sew
eral pounds to each inhabitant. In
one Of the suburbs the SCOT In the
bucket was AGA grams to the square
foot for a period of 80 days. For
the same time the deposit at Gen.
tral point in the city was s2,55O
grams to the square foot.

FOR THE HEADACHE SUFFERER.
Sleeping with His Head High VIII
Frequently Bring Relief.

''It is so strange, DOCTOR" COM
planned woman patient, recently,
"that when I have had a perfectly
good nights sleep l should so often
wake up with headache"
GLOW many pillows do you have
under your head?" asked the physi-
clan.
Gone thin pillow" was the an
swer.
''Try two fairly thick ones," the
doctor advised, adding that many
congestive headaches were caused by
people sleeping with their heads too
low. The blood settles in the head
and the sufferer wakes with a dull
feeling or throbbing pain. Persons
subject to catarrhal headache should
be careful to have their heads high
enough at night.
In cases of headache or facial
neuralgia where mustard would be
perhaps too severe, mixture of
white of egg and red pepper may be
safely used. 1t will be found quite
as effective as the mustard, but it
will not blister nor leave unsightly
red blotches even on a tender skin.
1t can be safely applied at the base
of the brain for that headache in
the back of the neck" which begins
to be complained of at about the
time when the storm and stress of
the holidays have exhausted the nerv-
Gus energy.-Harper's Bazaar.

RoBBIE'S REVISED WISH.

Robbie had been reproved by Ss
Sunday school teacher for exercis-
ing his conversational powers too
freely on worldly subjects, and his
sensitive nature resented it deeply.
He reached home with a cloud on
his youthful face.
Mamma, | wish my Sunday
school teacher was Dead" he said,
much to his mothers astonishment
and grief.
ooh, Robbie, what terrible
wish," she said to him, reprovingly.
Robbie explained that she had re-
buked him before all the other men,
bers of the class and greatly wound
ed his feelings by her sharp
words.
"But my little son should return
good for evil, that is the way good
little boys should do" replied his
mother.
Robbie, after a moment thought,
replied: "Then l wish she was
dead and in heaven"
