Admiral Dewey will give Cat Island
a Wide berth when bringing his re-
claimed Spanish gunboats home.
Congressman-elect Roberts, of Utah,
not only has three wives, but he is the
father of twins besides. Evidently
Roberts is destined to be much pointed
out from the galleries.
If Mr. Fyler’s incubator turns-out all

EVE’S RAMBLINGS.
COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.
It is a wondrous advantage to a man,
in every pursuit or vocation, to secure
an adviser in a sensible woman. In
woman there is at once a suitable deli-
cacy of tact and a plain soundness of
udgment which are rarely combined
to an equal degree in man.
A woman, if she is really your friend,
will have a sensitive regard for your
character, honor and repute. She will
seldom counsel you to do a shabby
thing, for a woman friend always de-
sires to be proud of you. -
At the same time her constitutional
timidity makes her more cautious than
your male friend. She, therefore, sel-
dom counsels you to do an imprudent
thing. A man’s best female friend isa
wife of good sense and good heart,
whom he loves and who loves him.
But supposing the man to be without
such a‘helpmate, female friendship he
must still have, or intelléct will be
w1th0uta garden, and there will be
many an unheeded gap in even the
strongest fence.
Better and safer, of course, such
friendships wheredisparities of years or
circumstances put the ideas of love out
Of the question.
Middle life has rarely this advantage;
youth and old age have. We may have
female friendships with those much
older and those much younger than
ourselves.
Mollere’s old housekeeper was a
great help to his genius, and Mon-
taigne’s philosophy takes both a gentler
and loftier character of wisdom from
the date in which he finds in Marie de
Gourney, an adopted daughter—“ cer-
tainly beloved by me,” he says, “ with
more than paternal love, and involved
in my solicitude and retirement as one
of the best parts of my being.”
Female friendship, is, indeed, to man
the bulwark, sweetener and ornament
of his existance. To his mental culture
it is invaluable; without it all his know-
ledge of books will never give him
knowledge of the world.

WHAT SHALL WE DO.
A serious and dangerous disease pre-
vails in this country, dangerous be-
cause so deceptIVe. It comes on so
slowly yet surely that it is Often firmly
seated before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may
be divided Into three distinct stages is,
First, Kidney trouble, indicated by
pain in the back, rheumatism, lumba-
go, frequent desire to urinate, often
wit-h a burning sensation, the flow of
urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with hea‘zy pain in the abdomen low
down between the navel and the water
passage, increasing desire to urinate,
with scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with dif-
ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
with,instruments. If uric acid or gravel
has formed, it will prove dangerous if
neglected.-
The third stage is Brightfls Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that
Dr. Kilmer, the great kidney and blad-
der specialist. has discovered a Remedy
famous for its marvelous cures of the
most distressing cases and known as
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root.
It is sold by all druggists.
As a proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swamp Root. 3.

FEMININEVCHAT.
A law suit generally wears out at the
pockets. w
Some women worry themselves gray
trying to look young. ‘
An ounce Of flattery goes further
with some women than a pound of
advice. ,
Every poor writer can put a little
style into his chirography by using a
stub pen.
Why does a woman always try to
make you believe that her last season’s
hat is a new one.
There are certain times in our life
when every lot seems preferable to our
own, yet we wouldn’t change places if
the opportunity were given us.
A woman would never think of sing-
ing in a street car, but men apparently
have no hesitation in giving vent to
their feelings in merry whistling in
such a public place.
What is there in feminine human
nature that makes a woman so ready to
believe that she is really beholding a
bargain because there are two price-
marks on it, the higher one beIng
crossed Off with red ink?
Occupation is the surest road to hap-
piness.
Why is it so many new women wear
old-fashioned gowns?
To live in one’s trunk requires finesse
and a world of patience.
Days are always bright when they
begin with a letter from some one of
whom you are very fond.
Some women in trying to be up to
date leap so far beyond it that it is
hard to realize whether they are ad-
vanced or slow.
When a woman declares that she
wouldn’t marry the best man living,
cards will be out as soon as she can
get a man to propose.
A woman may not have a single
domestic virtue, but if a man comes
in and discovers her sewing he at once
jumps to the concluSIon that she is a
veritable household goddess.

Tarrytovvn Widow ” will be the attrac-
tion at Hoyt’s Theatre on Saturday
evening next. On this occasion there
night performance. It ‘seems almost
unnecessary at this late date to add any
favorable comment to this already pop-
ular farce, which has so far stood the
test of three long seasons, last season
there being two separate companies
playing the piece in different parts of
the United States. This much may be
added in the favor of this sterling at-
traction, however. Since its last ap-
pearance in this section of the country
there have been introduced in the play
many new incidents and catchy original
musical specialties, the whole to be
produced by a company Of unusual ex-
cellence headed by the talented come-
dian, Otis B. Thayer who will play the
leading comedy role. Matinee price
15, 25 and 50 cents. " -
