If there is one thing more than
another which gratifies 11s, it is the
great volume of hearty thanks which
come from grateful parents for the
cures Hood’s Sarsaparilla has effected
upon their children. The agony of
despair turns to unspeakable joy as
mothers and fathers see dreadful sores
and eruptions gradually yield to the
potent purifying power of this great
medicine, and bright boys and girls

.there had been a large family circle; I
'r. n E E v E NI N G c A's-E11241,
THE BROKEN HOUSE KEY.
The young and pretty bride felt wor-
ried and out of sorts. Only a short
eight weeks ago she had married her
dear Gus and had followed him to his
home in W , and already he had be-
gun to neglect her, to go out of an even-
ing, and to leave her alone in the big
house. He had tried to convince her
that he could not altogether neglect his
former friends and companions, and
that she ought not to object to his meet-
ing them on two evenings every week,
and to pass an agreeable hour in their
company overra friendly game of whist;
but she simply did not comprehend how
he could enjoy himself without her,
how he could even think of going any-
where without taking her along.
“Oh! the dreadful evenings I have to
spend,” she complained, with tears in
her eyes. “I am obliged to sit here all
alone because I have as yet had no
chance to form any acquaintances here.
Naturally, I get homesick. Often I feel
like leaving everything and taking the
train home to my parents.”
“Would it not be better, darling, if
you went to bed instead and tried to
sleep ?”
“That is just where the trouble is,”
she replied, still in tears; “I am afraid.
Our servant always sleeps way up in the
attic. She would not even hear were
anything to happen to me.” '
“Why, you foolish'child, what is there
to be afraid of; what is going to hap-
pen ?” .
“Are not the papers every day full of
burglaries and robberies?” she per-
sisted. “Think of the many strangers
tllatqfiock to a well-known health resort
like this. Nothing is impossible under
such circumstances!”
The husband looked thoughtfully at
his sweet bride.
“No, dear, I do not want you to fright-
en yourself into illness. I promise you
herewith, of my own free will (the poor
fellow could not help heaving a sigh as
he said this) to return promptly at 1.1
o’clock whenever I go to meet my
friends. It is impossible for me to
withdraw myself from their society a1-
together, for they would ridicule and
make fun of me, and call me ‘hen-
» o'clock.

apeparance before the hour of 11, the .
streets being full of life‘and traffic.I
Good-by, darling, and please do not feel

Annie sighed and submitted resign- I
edly to her fate.
she took up her embroidery, a present I
for her mother; she played a game of :
solitaire, and finally she paced restless- i
1y up and down the room. At. homel
hence it was very trying to her to be
left so much to herself in her new sur-
roundings.
At ten o’clock even the familiar noises
in the kitchen ceased, for the servant
had gone upstairs to her attic, and the

poor woman felt the old feeling of dis-
tress and fright creep over her. The
sitting-room was located to the rear of
the house, and there was a hallway be-
tween it and the front rooms. She
therefore could not hear the usual
street noises. A death-like silence
reigned in the room. Tired and yet ex-
cited she t-hrcw herself on the lounge.
She sadly reflected why beer houses;
and card parties had been called into
existence. By and by her thoughts;
became more and more confused, and I
she'fell into a sound slumber.
It was 11:05 o’clock when Gus arrived 3
breathlessly and post haste at his house
door and tried to fit his key into the '
lock. I
Poor fellow! Had evil spirits con- I
spired to get him into trouble? Click:
—the key broke in two and the bit
stuck fast in the keyhole, handle and '
barre] alone remained in his hands.
He knocked; he called; he knocked 5
again, and louder, for unfortunatelyi
there was no house bell—all in vain. ,
“I hardly think my wife has retired
as early as this,” he reflected, “but.
of course she is in the sitting-room, and .
more likely she cannot hear me.” Once
more he knocked—this time very loud
—he called until his voice was hoarse. ,
No reply!
To fill his cup of misery to the brim
it commenced to rain, and he was with-
out an umbrella. . I
“l“enhaps Annie has gone to bed after I
all,” he thought, shivering and dripping I
wet. “Shall I go to a hotel? No! What
xv ould the piople think? The only place
that I know of that may still beopen
is the railway depot, for there is atrain
arriving at midnight.”
He went down the street in the pour-
in;r rain, and at last found himself in
the waiting-room of the station.
“A glass of beer, sir?”.asked the en-
terprising waiter. (ins shook himself.
He felt chilly. "’ "Web.” he sai( , “and

then another, and still another, to while

were about to close up.

She read awhile; then I
It was one o’clock when he emerged
into the street, and it had ceased to
rain. The full moon seemed to grin
and wink at him maliciously through
the clouds, as though she meant to say:
“See, old man, it serves you right! Why
must you go out- to play cards and leave
your wife at home in loneliness?”
In spite of the repeated potations he
stil felt chilly. “There is no help for it
but a good run,” hesaid toh'imself, start-
ing on a lively trot through the city;
first down one street, then up another;
through the suburbs unt1l he reached
the open country, and back again with-
out stop or rest for fear of catching
cold. _
The town clock struck the hour of
four. “It is still too early to getinto the
house,” he said, “the front door is
never unlocked before ‘ six o’clock!
Will they be unable to unlock the door,
anyway? A piece of my key sticks in
the lock; the women are imprisoned
and cannot get out. But new loan
stand it no longer. I must have some-
thing hot to drink and sit down Some-
where. There is a train at four o’clock,”
and forthwith he once more wended his
way to the railroad depot.
A snug corner and a cup of hot coffee
somewhat restored him. But he was
very tircd, and pretty soon he. was. as
sound asleep in his corner as his wife
had been the night before on her
lounge. .
And how did his wife fare?- She
awoke in the middle of the night with a
start, almost frightened out of her wits
by a. horrid dream, in which her hus-
band had appeared before her, wounded,
bleeding, and torn by huge blood—
hounds. Pretty soon, however, She
comprehended the situation. Her face
bathed in tears, she paced restlessly up
and down the room wringing her hands.
“Oh, the wretch! To stay out all night!
Just to think of it! Such a man-has the.
effrontery to talk to me of love. Not
content to act like a villain, he even had
to make fun of me last night by pretend-
ing he would henceforth be home at 11

he’ll find that I am not his dupe. I
shall leave him at once. There is a
train at seven o’clock in the morning,
which I am going to take and go home
to my parents”—and so forth and so on.
More wringing of her hands, more tears,
more self-pity and accusations, until in
her eyes .her husband appeared a verit—
able Bluebeard. .
At five o’clock she called the serving
maid, whom she sent to the garret for a
valise, and commenced to pack. The
maid said nothing, but she was sur—
prised that her master had not risen and
did not help his wife. However, she
made the coffee and then went after a
cab.
The front door was wide open and a
locksmith busy with the big lock when
Annie appeared in the hall. The land-
lady ran to meet her, exclaiming in
a. flurry of excitement: “Did you hear
about it, madam? A thief was here
last night and made an attempt toenter
the house. Some one must have fright-
ened him off. He left a broken key
stuck fast. in the lock, and I was unable

spoil their little game. But you look
to have frightened you with my burglar
story.
early in the morning?”
Annie nodded and passed on. She
was glad that the woman had not seen
her valise, which her maid had already
put into the cab.
“What a narrow escape I had last
night. How near I came being robbed
——perha.ps worse!” She was now
thoroughly angry. “So much more
reason for leaving. the fellow, no matter
the consequences! For the present I
shall remain with my parents.” Thus .
musing she arrived at the depot.
Before purchasing her ticket she in-
tended to leave her valise in the wait-
ing-room. Annie entered and made
for an empty table, when suddenly——
she dropped the valise and almost
screamed aloud—wasn’t that her hus-
band, “her” Gus sitting there in a. cor—
ner and snoring loud enough to make
everybody in the room smile at his
nasal powens? He looked tired and
worn and his garments appeared damp.
How did he get here and why was he in
such a dilapidated condition? She
stood for a moment undecided and un-
able to take her eyes off his drawn,
worn out features.
Suddenly the sleeper opened his eyes.
“’hatever the outcome she must avoid
a scene in a public room. Anything
but that! The waiters had more than
once looked wonderingly at the mun
who had drunk three cups of coffee and
then fallen sound asleep hours ago.
Annie tried to appear quite uncon-
' eerned, and took a seat beside her hus-
band. Somehow her anger had sud—
denly vanished.
“Oh, darling, what brought me—I
mean rather 'w.hat brought you——
here?” he asked, astonished at the un-
expected appearance of his wife,
dressed for a journey.
“Never mind, dear. Don’t bother
about that now,” she Whispered.
“Come, let us ride home, where I will
explain all.”
Gus acquiesced in silence. His feet
felt heavy and hardly able to carry his
weight. He was sick. All he could
do was to drag himself to a. cab.
And then explanations were in order.
Annie had no reason to doubt her hus-
band’s narra-t-iou of his. adventures dur-
ing the night, and what the landlady
had‘ told her about the broken key
tended to corroborate and exonerate
him. But he could not make out from
her explanations what. had taken her to
the railway station. He was, however,
too ill to ask many questions.
Arrived at home she simply told the
astonished servants that “they had
changed their mind and would not go
away because her husband, who had
preceded her to the depot, had been
suddenly taken sick,” and sent her
after a physician. ,
Gus was very sick; for two weeks 11
could not leave his bed: A compli-
cated and aggravated attack of influen-
za. was the result of his experience
during that ill-fated night.
Annie never left his bedside, and now
it was her great care and tireless de-
voted nursing tha-t opened his eyes as
to the depth and unselfishness of her
great love for him.
At last. Gus got Well, and though he
would now and then go to have aso—
cial game of whist, his wife never again
doubted him, even if he stayed out
later than “11.”—From the German.

BIKE DEFORMITIES. .
Some of the Effects of Too Close
Devotion to the Wheel.
The Human Form Divine Distorted
and Rendered Unsightly by Ex-
’cessive Indulgence in a,
Healthful Exercise.
It is agreed by medical men that the
bicycle may produce effects on. the
rider of 'decided benefit to health,
always providing, of course, the
the machine is used with a due ap-
preciation of the injuries which the
wheel is also capable of inflicting.
The subject of this sketch, however,
is not so much the rider who rides the
wheel properly and obtains benefit
therefrom, as the one who rides for rid-
ing’s sake and with no regard what-
ever for his physical welfare. In other
words, the bicycle fiend, who rides with
the apparent purpose of making him-
self ridiculous.
Of all the deformities produced by
biking the strained, nervous expression
known as the bicycle face is most pro-
nounced. It is so common nowadays
that a. description of it here would be
a waste of valuable space.
Another common deformity is the
bicycle back, which is produced by the
cramped, crouching and stoop-shoul-
dered position so much affected by
scorchers. This position cramps the
chest and its contents, thus limit-ing the
breathing capacity of the lungs.
The bicycle neck is also becoming
more prominent every day.. There are
lwo Common varieties of this deformity.
The'first is. produced when the rider
bends forward and lowers his. head as
if he were trying to touch the tire of the
forward Wheel wit-h his nose. In this
position the rider’s back and neck de-
scribe a. half circle. The other form of
neck is produced when the rider sits
astride his machine in much the same
position, with the exception that he
holds his head back as far as possible—
in fact, so far that his head and neck
form a right angle with the upper part
Of his back.
Bicycle arms may be seen on the
boulevard any pleasant. day. The fiend
spins along with his back and neck as
described above and his elbows project-
‘He is
usually so accustomed to this abnormal
position that he finds it next to impos-
very pale, my dear madam. I am sorry I Sible to stralghten hlS arms and assume
any other when not riding.
The hands and wrists also come in for
their share in the general deformity.
The hands are usually held at a pro-
nounced angle with the arms, and are
obliged to support the entire weight of
the upper part of the body.
Bicycle legs are also characteristic of
this peculiar specimen. They are usu-
ally knock-kneed, with an, abnormal
development of the calf. The peculiar
position of the feet causes him to toe in,
producing bicycle toes,similar to pigeon
toes. . '
As a. result of indiscriminate riding,
scorching and racing, we see a long,
strained and nervous-visaged, crooked-
necked, round-shouldered, narrow-
chested, hump-backed,knock-kneed and
pigeon-toed‘ specimen of humanity,
whose elbows protrude at the times
and whose hands resemble those *of
Johanna more nearly than those of any
normal specimen of. the genus homo.
Not only does this specimen disfigure
himself, but he is apt to injure his eye-.
sight. French eye specialists have re-
corded numerous cases of visual dis-
turbances among bicyclers. The most
common form of the trouble is found in
those who ride at a very rapid pace and
climb steep hills. \ ,
Riders are usually seized with severe
vertigo and a. sudden diminution of
vision in one or both eyes. When the
eyes are examined by an oculist traces
of retinal hemorrhage are usually
found.
The heart also suffers as a result of
scorching and long-distance racing.
From over-acting it may become dila-
ted and very much enlarged, causing
serious: trouble—J. F. Whitmye/r, M.

FAITHFULLY KEPT HIS PLEDGE.
Promised His Mother He Would Never
Play Cards Again.
A party of well-dressed men met at
a leading hotel the other night. A game
of poker was proposed, when one of
them said:
“I never play, so you will have to ex—
cuse me, gentlemen.”
“Why, I played with you several years
ago,” said one.
“Yes, but since that time my mother
died. Ij‘or years before her death I was
a professional gambler, and itne-arly
broke her heart, for she had always
hoped that I would make my mark in
some honorable profession. At her
deathbed, three years ago, I promised
her that I would never touch another
card, and I have kept my word._ I never
will.”
His companions were visibly affected
by this candid recital, and one of them
said: »
“I honor you for your course, and we
will not play poker to-night. I'suppose
you went into a. profession when you
ceased your career as a. gambler, and I
hope you have been successful.”
6“Very,” replied the reformed card
player. “In three years I am' about
$50,000 ahead, and I would not have been
worth a dollar if I had continued in :n y
former course.”
“May I ask what profession you now_
follow?" -
“Certainly. I am a bookmaker. Bet

SE-‘RVANTS’ BALL IN PARIS.
A Splendid Affair in Which 6,000 Do-,
- mestics Are Interested. ‘
One of the great balls of Paris is that.
‘of the so-called “Bal des (lens dc Mai-
son” at the Salle Wagram, which has
.just been held. ‘ The “Gens de Maison”
. comprising some
(3,000 of the superior servants, the
cream, in fact, an‘dthe aristocracy of
the 150,000 domestics employed to wait-
upon the well-to-do citizens of Paris.
The union' is rich and eclectic, in so‘far
as it will permit no servant to retain his
or her name on the rolls who has been
guilty of disgraceful conduct.
The president is M. Picard, a butler
of imposing presence, who, with a
broad, blue sash of office crossing his
capaciors white waistcoat, as the rib-
bon of the Legion of Honor crosses that
of President Faure, received the guests
at the ball with just as mucli'dignity
and stateliness as if he were the chief
magistrate of the republic in person.
The demeanor of the guests was irre~
pr'oachable, and the attire of both men
and women compared favorably with
that of the people present at the mu-
nicipal ball a couple of days previously.
The men were in. full evening dress,
while the magnificent jewels! that
adorned the; necks, theurms, and the
coiifures of“ many of the women gave
evidence of the fact- that their mistress-
es had allowed 'zthem. for the occasion
free access to their caskets.
These gems, however, andthe costly
laces may be said to have constituted
the sum total of the borrowed plumes.
for it was manifest from the perfect
fit- of the gowns that they had been
made for their wearers. This is by no
means surprising when it- is borne in
mind t-hattothclady’s maids,.the valets,
the but-lers and the private, coachmen
in Paris this Buls dcs (lens dc Maison
constitutes the principal social event
and festival of the entire ycar,.the one
for which they reserve all their finery
and all their economics. as well as their
best manners. Masters and mistresses
seem to take pleasure in helping the
members of their household to cut a
good figure on this occasion, and man v
is‘ the lady’s maid who can boast- of
having had the finishing touches given
to- her toilet and the jewels fastened
into her hair, around her throat and
wrists and into her cars by the hands
ef'hcr own mistress. The only feature
of the entertainment calculated to‘
cause a smile and to create some
amusement was the precedence accord—
ed to the servants of dukes over those
oflmarquisl-s, and to those of marquiscs
over those of counts, the domestics of
ordinary untitled citizens being con--
tent to follow meekly in the wake of'
their betters.——l’aris Letter.
NEW HAM PSHIR 3’3. PRIDE.
Splendid Work Done for the Free Public
Library System.
New Hampshire has reason to be
proud of her free public library system.
Splendid work has been accomplished
since 1892. and of the 233 cities and
towns in the state there are now not
more than 50. that have no free public
library- There is every reason to ex-~
pect that. even this number will be .
greatly reduced by t-he‘action of the
voters in these towns atthe next March
meeting; The value of these libraries,
free to every citizen of a town, is so
obvious that no one now seriously ques-
tions it, and it is a source of satisfaction
to every friend of education to con-
template the rcsults that will surely
follow from their influence.
Under the law of 1805 every town
must elect a board of-library trustees,
whether it has a free public library or
not, and a small assessment. is .mndc
compulsory unless the town votes that
it- “is inexpedicnt to establish a libra-
ry.” But this action must be taken
each year,the evident purpose cf'the law
being that the subject of a free public
library shall be brought annually to
the, attention of every town in the
state. In towns where there is no pub-
lic library the assessment is to form a
fund, in't‘he care of the trustees. until
such time as the library is established.
It was not intended by the law that
the compulsory assessment should be
a. sufficient support for the lib} cry, and
it- is to be hoped that each town will
make an additional appropriation in
order that its library may be constantly
increasing and be maintained at a. high
standard of efficiency. There can be no
better investment in any town—after
the schools have been provided for—~—
than the judicious expenditure of
money in the purchase of books that
shall be free and in the reach of every
citizen. It is a matter to be thought
about and talked about and acted upon
when the voters come together in town
meeting—Manchester Union.

News we find the following description. '
of this singularcity: _
According to effigies, inscriptions and
designs upon. the gold and silver money
unearthed from among the ruins, the
existence of the town dates back to
some two centuries before the birth of
Christ. '
The underground Bokharan city is a
little over a mile long, and is composed
of an enormous labyrinth of corridors,
streets and squares, surrounded by
houses and other buildings-two or three
stories high. The edifices contain all
kinds of domestic utensils, pots, urns,
vases and the like.
streets falls of earth and rock have ob-
structed the passages, but generally the
visitor can walk about Without so much
as lowering his head. .
The high degree of civilization at-
tained by the inhabitants of the city is
shown by the fact that they built in
several stories, by the symmetry of the
streets and squares, and by the beauty
of the baked clay and metal utensils;
and of the ornaments and coins which
have been found.
It is supposed that long centuries ago
this city, so carefully concealed in the
bowels cf the earth, provided an entire
population with a. refuge from the in-
cursions of nomadic savages and rob-
hers.

at the Paris observatory by Miss
Klumpkc. doctor of sciences and as-
sistant astronomer, in view of the pub-
ltation of an international catalogue
of the stars. The idea. was formed at
the astronomical congress in 1887,. and
already 189 photographs have been
taken. Some only contain a; dozen
stars, this being a celestial desert; but
others are crowded,.even to the num-
ber of 1.530. The average number is
335 stars per photograph. Altogether
the catalogue is expected to: contain
about 3,000,000 stars. A census of the
heavenly bodies has long been. needed.
N ow a woman comes forward arid will
time at it, but when the-work is done
it will be finished.
