AFTER THE RAIN.
Dripping the hollyhocks beneath the wall,
Their fires half quenched. a smouldering red;
A shred of gold upon the grasses tall,
A butterfly is hanging dead.
A sound of trickling waters, like a tune
Set to sweet words; a wind that blows
Wet boughs against a saffron sky; all June
Caught in the breath of one white rose.

THE LOST PROPERTY ROOM.
Articles Left in the Cars by Forgotful
" Passengers—Money Found.
As soon as the passengers have streamed
out of the station and lost to sight, swallowed
up in the human maelstrom of the great city,
a squad of employee go through the train
looking for lost articles. What they find is
taken to the proper oflicials, who enter on a
big ledger a description of the lost property
and the train on which it was found. Should
the owner turn up within a week it is given
.him and his name is entered in the book op-
posito the description of the article. If not
called for in a week it goes to the cast off
room.
“We have got six years’ accumulation on
hand,” said the clerk in charge of the lost
property room to a reporter. “We never sell
the property at auction, but it lies here and
rots—what can rot. More umbrellas and
rubber shoes are found'than anything else, as
you see. People pull of! their rubbers and
then go away and forget them. They stick
their umbrellas in the racks, and when they
get into the station, the train three minutes
late, elevated cars waiting, brakemen shout-
ing ‘Step lively l’ hurry skurry off with the
crowd and the umbrella sticking in the rack
forgotten. The same‘ thing happens every
day.”
“Is any money ever found?"
“A great deal," replied the clerk. “We
have now in the bank drawing interest over
$1,000 picked up in our cars alone. Night
trains are the onesto find money on. Passen-
gers cock their knees up against the. backs of
the seats in front of them and the small coins
slip out of their trousers pockets easily. We
have found sums ranging from one cent to
$80, which have never been claimed and still
want owners. Once a searcher picked up in
a Pullman sleeper a check for $3,000. This,
of course, we were able to identify and return
to its owner.” '
In the curious assortment of unclaimed
merchandise to be found in these last property
rooms the reporter saw flannel shirts, a basket
of peaches, a package of fans, various articles
of feminine use and adornment, including
earrings, bracelets, rings, watch chains, etc,
huts of all descriptions, walking canes, over-
roats, linen dusters, a photograph, necktles,
paper collars, pocketbooks, etc. The peaches
are only kept till they decay. Scores of
handsome silk umbrellas were dropping into
tatters from the ravages of moths, and there
were rubber shoes enough to stock a country
store. —New York Tribune.
MEMPHIS’ WAR PAPER IN ’62.
Journalistic Experiences of Union Soi-
Illers—“The Weekly Reveille."
Two or three days after reaching Memphis
I was detailed at headquarters, and was din
rected to take possession of the first vacant
printing office in order to print such general
orders as might be received for distribution
to the various commands. The other printer
detailed for this work was a companionable
follow, bright and intelligent. but erratic and
unreliable, and with no very deep convic-
tions. The idea was mutual that while em-
ployed in issuing orders extra time might be
utilized in getting out a paper, as there was
no publication of any kind in Memphis, un-
less it might be The Daily Avalanche, which,
of course, was of different views from that of
the northern soldiery then crowding the city.
The paper was gotten out under the name
of The Weekly Reveille, printed on coarse
paper, and by no means attractive or newsy,
but it had the gossip of the regiments, it had
a flavor of Unionism which could not be de-
nied, and it went like hot cakes, so much so
that within three days another edition was
issued under the name of The Semi-Weekly
Reveille, to be followed on the second day
thereafter with what blossomed out as The
Tri-Weekly Reveille. These several editions
gave attention to general orders and to news
from the north, clipped from St. Louis papers
of several days' antiquity, which were readily
rctailed at twenty-five cents each, and the
tri-weekly was even more a success financially
than the weekly and semi-weekly editions.
In the earlier stages of the war The Daily
Appeal was apparently the leading organ in
the southwest, but when the Union forces
hove in sight of Memphis it shook the dust of
the doomed city from its folds and followed
the fortunes of the Confederate army in its
search for safety. But it left a finely ap-
pointed ofllce behind, an office complete in
every respect, as remembered as this late
date, save a press, and one day there came an
order from the general to abandon the little,
dirty, [dingy, one horse stand around the
corner and take possession of The Appeal
building, with all its contents.
Great things were expected of this ener-
getic advance, and so there was immediately
issued probably the only unquestioned Re-
publican Union paper over before printed in
Memphis, under the stately caption of “The
Daily Union Appeal.” . It was a “gully” un-
dertaking, thispublisbing a daily paper in the
enemy’s country without money or credit, or
any special stock of brains; but an editor
from “The Avalanche” was engaged, by the
name of Casuran, or something similar, and
“The Appeal” was launched.
Printers were plentiful; in fact, they could
be found asleep on the office steps at all hours
of the day and night, and “cases" were con-
stantly changing hands, for as fast as one
was $4 or 85 ahead he made a break for
“God’s country,” as it was termed, meaning
the north. In consequence of this intense
desire to reach the north there was a great
kick every pay day against accepting Teu-
nessee money, and it was a hard pull and fre-
quently an impossible one to get any other
kind with which to meet their demands. ‘ It
is recalled as well that the gang at The Ava-
lanche ofliee, which did the presswork for
The Appeal, were also terribly exercised about
that Tennessee money, and occasionally they
had cause to be fearful that none was coming.
How The Daily Union Memphis Appeal
managed to live horn day to day is a mys-
tery even at this late (late, but it did in some
way, and many a printer blessed it for the
opportunity given of a chance to secure hon.
est money and a trip to God’s country, safe
from war’s alarms.
The correspondents of the great northern
dailies, then waiting for an advance of the
army, also occasionally volunteered an “in-
tellectual etching,” and The Appeal was not
without weight and influence—whileit lasted.
My connection, however, was limited, for in
a few weeks there came marching orders for
the regiment, and without giving a thought
to the possibility of getting a detail to re-
main in Memphis—these were my callow
days—I turned over my share to a chaplain
and joined my command. Whatever was
the fate of The Union Appeal is unknown,
unless it died from pure iuanition.—In dianap-
-olis News.
Equality Among the Gypsies.
In all social matters perfect equality is a
living principle. The richest gypsy is of no
more accOunt socially than my friend, Bob,
the tinker, here, whose big heart is always
turning his purse wrong side out ; and no one
is left out of counsel or frolic on account of
poverty or misfortune; while mutual help,
one to another, is universal among them.
The greatest affairs among them are wed-
dings and funerals. The courting—always
under the severest espionage of parents—is
usually done in the summer upon the road.
When the winter quarters are reached the
weddings follow in rapid succession, and fur-
nish boundless recourse for feast and frolic;
while some of the gypsy funerals, and es-
pecially where the camp effects of the dead
are burned, which ceremony I have twice
witnessed, are occasions of the greatest so-
lcmnity, though always followed by merry-
makings out of consideration for the Incum-
lug ones, who must be given new spirit and
interest in life.
But in all things the gypsy is temperate.
Excess is ubhorrcd. Whether in the city win-
lc'r frolic, at the gayest \vedding,'iII all sing-
ing, dancing and merry making, at rout and
reel on the green sward by the flickering fires
and under the glowing stars, outcast that be
is, there is a geniality, loyalty. cleanliness
and goodness of just, right and equable de-
gree and kind in his every day life to those
he owns and loves which cannot but be con-
templated with gratification and delight,
whether it be found in your home or in his.

Reformation by Physical Exercise.
The recent report of the experiments made
in the New York State reformatory for the
distinct purpose of testing this theory of
physical exercise as the surest and most direct
method of arousing and developing the moral
and mental faculties of restrained criminals,
happily demonstrates their very large suc-
cesa They furnish convincing testimony to
the fact that by the administration of proper
physical training the mental growth of crim-
inals is assisted and their moral power visibly
strengthened and enlarged. That being once
. Well ascertained, the perplexing problem of
the reformation of criminals in confinement
may be regarded as solved. The best way to
preach to them and teach them is through
physical development and habitual bodily
activity—Boston Globe.
Under the Old Pine Tree.
The old pine tree at Dartmouth college has
been struck by lightning. There is a tradi-
tion that the Indians, the first students in the
institution, were wont to hold a meeting
around the foot of the tree on their graduar
tion and smoke a parting pipe of peace. The
nonstom has been preserved, and it is one of
:tbemost interesting exercises of class day to
«watch-tho graduates smoking clay pipes—
ananyeusing tobacco for the first time—and

ABOUT JOHN SWINTON.
A JOURNALIST WHO SACRIFICED
HIMSELF FOR AN IDEA.
Denying Himself the Necessarlcs of Life
that His Paper Might Go Orr—Appar-
ently a Strange Medley of Contradic-
tlons—Personal Anecdotes.
The much writing about John Swinton has
not got at the heart of what kind of a man
he is. A great deal of sympathy is felt in
New York for the old man, for he has long
been the only real or apparent Frenchman in
anAmerican skin over here. He has repre-
sented enough earnestness, on the one hand,
and enough bounce, on the other, to make or
decorate a striking personality—while he has
also satisfied a demand for comedy as well as
supplied an example of intensity. There will
have to be a day of judgment to settle
whether John Swiuton’s communism is a red
hot conviction or a form of cultivated ego-
tism, which has become a freak or a fanati-
cism, The matter is, however, not so import-
ant as the fact that the old man was at any
time ready to die for his fad—if death could
be inflicted in a properly dramatic manner-
and, more‘s the pity, has almost starved for
It. I do not desire to figure as a 'I'relawny
who would lift the shroud of a dead genius to
be able to tell the world which was the .club
foot that the vanity of the son of the gods
concealed in his life time. The reason for in~
dicating the sacrifices to which John Swinton
has subjected himself for an idea is that an
instance of endurance may be shown from
which human nature may draw a lesson.
Your readers know that the man’s paper is
dead; that it died for want of support; that
its death proves that labor will not labor to
help its champions—all this is known.
snort waL'rII x0 POVERTY.
Not known are these facts: The old man
began publishing that paper when he lived in
a mansion replete with treasures of art and
literature and with uses which wealth has
for all the wants and the taste. A French
chef ministered to the epicurean palates which
. the hospitable master invited around him.
Statesman, reformers, beauties, moralists and
at times tbe~prinoes of states and of churches
were his guests. For long months past he
has lived in one room in a tenement among
the slums, his food not costing $1 a week and
not worth half that little, depleting himself
in body that the paper might go on; earning
$200 by a magazine article on something he
was indifferent about that he might issue
thoughts which he was tremendously moved
about. “i will dine you;fora sixpence, but if
you want me to write for you my terms will be
820 a column; it will bring out my next.
issue,” he would say. An income of over
$10,000 a year and a fortune which at least
five figures would be needed toexpress, house,
furniture, horses, wines, clothes, last of all
the beloved books, have gone to sustain an
idea, and the idea was wind.
John Swinton had to stop. He could starve
his stomach and deny his mind as long as he
could get together enough to pay the printer,
but when that failed he ceased. No one suf-
fered loss but himself. The theories of the
man were visionary and destructive, but he
was the safest conduit for them there was.
He would denounce property without being
able to remove the conviction of everybody
that be was the kindest old man in the world.
He would roar like Etna, but the birds would
not fly away when he walked by them. He
would emit fire and slaughter, but his wallet
would be turned inside out to the first beggar.
He would advocate communism and practice
it by loading up gamins with presents. New
York knew. him as a stage quantity ~whose
heart was as gentle as summer. The amount
of verbal vehemence that hadto be got 03
sounded in him like the demons’ tenplns
among the mountains or schltillatod around
and within him like the lightning of a July
twilight; but the noise was only noise and the
lightning struck nothing but his pocketbook.
A FEW reasoxxr. anxcnoras.
The «old man was a conservative force, a
discountod thunderbolt, and did not seem to
know it. He came, as he thought, unto his
own, and they received him not. They unto
whom be cast pearls turned and mended him.
He will find harbor whence he went forth to
raise storm and encounter shipwreck.
“What were you doing that afternoon on
that corner?” asked Mr. Fullerton of him
when a witness on the Beecher trial.
“Musing on the infinite,” was the answer
that came quick as a flash, straight as a rifle
ball and hard as a rock. That cross examina-
tion was not continued.
“Did you ever taste that kind of wine be-
before, Swintou?” asked A. T. Stewart of
him at a dinner once in the Thirty-fourth
street palace, as the host doled out the least
bit of a rare vintage.
“Yes, twice; once with Antonelli and once
with Bismarck, and both times in larger
glasses," was the reply.
it was Swinton who gravely proposed to
discuss in Madison square garden with Wil-
liam H. Vanderbilt the latter’s right to his
millions to the sheer consternation of that
man, and somewhat to his apprehension. It
was Swiuton against whom Depew “braced
himself” for the debate at the Nineteenth
Century club, and it was Swinton who at
that club spoke only such honeyed words of
the allowances which ought to be made for
rich men that Depew’s prepared arguments
were kicks against nothing.
“He thought I’d show my teeth, but my
speech was a sustained kiss,” chucklingly cx-
plains the old man. “The casemaker was
nowhere,” he adds. ,
He has learned that natural conditions will
not bend to aid poor or rich; that ingratitude
is a plant that can grow in the slums as well'
axon the avenue; that the confederation of
forces, the conservation of powers, the union
of allergy, skill and interests that that go by
the name of corporations, syndicates, com-
panies. trusts and the like are a law of the
civilization of the time; he has learned his
lesson, but sweet, strong and hopeful in him »
yet is “the indomitable heart of Armand
Richelieu.”—New York Cor. Brooklyn Eagle.
Puebla’a “House of Maternity."
Perhaps the institution in which Pabianoe
take particular pride is the House of Mater-
nity, existing, not as so many of the public
institutions, in an old edifice diverted from
church or convent uses since the reform laws
were issued, but in a handsome structure
specially erected for its purpose. The history
of its origin is somewhat striking. Don Luis
Haro, a wealthy bachelor of Puebla, was a
ealaveron, as the Spanish hath it—a profile
gate, a rake. Returning one night from his
everyday debaucheries, he stumbled over
some swine greedily feeding in a narrow by-
way, and clutching at the ground in his
scrambles to arise, he picked up the mangled
arm and band of a new born baby.
Carrying his ghastly find away with him,‘
he mused and mourned over the pitiful sight
of those tender fingers, and there seemed to
fall across his mental vision a light that
showed him all the crime and baseness to
which his immoralities contribute I. Here
formed and died in the odor of sanctity,
leaving $200,000 for the founding of a house
of maternity. The will was contested long
by Hero’s relations, but the charity finally,
triumphed and the hospital has been opened
about two years. It is maintained by its
endowment and its administration is con-
ducted on avery economical yet far from
niggardly basis. There is room for forty
patients, and the qualifications are the ap-
proach of maternity and inability to defray
the expenses of the occasion. The patients
are sheltered and quite restored to health,
and their infants are given one full suit of
apparel on Ieaving.-—Puebla Cor. San Fran-
cisco Chronicle.
The Secret of the V-Shapcd Back.
When a woman begins to show her age the
first part to lose its firm, youthful contour is
the face and chin, then the neck and bust,
and no amount of alum water washes nor
“astringent pomades” will restore firmness to
the flabby muscles, and it then becomes nec-
essary to look about for some other beauty
that nature spared a little longer, and the up-
per part of the arms and the back keep their
whiteness and delicacy long after the rest of
the woman is passe. For that reason was the
V-shaped back invented. and therefore were
sleeveless waists made which leave the arm ex-
posed up above the shoulder. Long gloves
bide many a wrinkled band and withered
forearm, and the modestly high front of the
waist veils the faded bust, while the black
velvet ribbon tied tightly around the throat
retains the loose flesh in its snug embrace,
while it whitens the rest of the neck by con-
trast, and it also sustains the buggy double
chili, together with the “wrinkle annihilator,"
which is made of alum and paraffine and a
little sweet almond OIL—Newport Cor. Ro-
chester Union.
Ethics of the Barber Shop. .
. “Buy rum?” .
So spoke a barber in a well known shop on
Nassau street. The proprietor glanced up
quietly and significantly, but said nothing.
When the customer had gone, the barber was
called to one side, and received, as far as
could be gathered from the whispered tones, a
sharp admonition.
“I never allow my employee," said the pro-
prietor in response to an inquiry, “to ask my
customers whether they want anything, and
I flatter myself that this from of the methods
by which I have built up a business. A
customer Is pretty sure to know what he
wants, and if he comes in for a ten cent shave
he does not care to have it advertised that he
don’t feel able to indulge in a fifteen cent
operation. Even if, in order to keep up ap-
pearances, he says 'Yes,’ in reply to ‘Bay
rum?’ he grudges the five cents and Will avoid
the shop afterward. Yes, sir, I believe the
main secret of my success is that none of my
bar-hers are allowed to say ‘Bay rumi’ ”
“Delft you lose some custom, that way, of
people who would take bay rum if reminded
of it?”
“I don‘t think so. If (he customer wants
bay rum he is pretty sure tohavoitinmind,
and to say so, and then if he wants it all the
time he will say so."—New York Sun.

THE MORMON’S SUNDAY.
A SABBATH SCHOOL AMONG THE
FOLLOWERS OF JOSEPH SMITH.
Ceremony of Blessing the Brand and
Preparing the Sacrament for the Chi]-
dren—Blessing the Water—Scripture
Bending, Bible Stories, Ito.
I have been to church twice today—in the
morning to a Mormon Sabbath school and in
the afternoon 'tothe services in that turtle
like structure which is called the tabernacle.
What Isaw and heard impressed me most
favorably regarding the strange people who
have found Zion among the \Vasatch hills,
and whose mission is multiplication and tho
replenislnnont of the earth. I shall say noth-
ing further, however, concerning my impres-
sions. It will be .best to tell my readers what
was said and done, and from this simple stato-
Inent they can then draw their'own conclu-
alone.
The Sabbath School began at 10 o'clock. It
was held in a long rectangular one story
adobe building, with plastered exterior walls
and commodious wings built and finished
This is the Thir-
teenth IVard school, and there are twenty
other similar buildings in Salt Lake City.
:They are called ward assembly halls, and are
used for meetings and Sunday classes. The
word ward must not beacoepted in its po-
litical senses. Bishop Mellon Atwood sat on
along beach on a platform at the north end
of the ball. On each side of him were Wil-
liam Naylor, superintendent of the school;
Nelson Em y, the bishop's first councilor;
Hamilton . Parks, Mimionary Lyons and
two teachers Before them was a pulpit, and
beside the pulpit on the right and left were
high flat toppeddesks covered with table
cloths and carrying several pieces of glisten-
ing silverware, two water pitchers, two or
three cake baskets and a half dozen goblets.
In the cake baskets were tiny cubes of bread,
each lam thana toothful. The room, prob-
ably 70x30 feet in dimensions, witha good
high ceiling neatly frescoed, and presenting
the symbols of the church—the all seeing eye
and. the bee hive—was filled with benches,
; and these were occupied, in the middle space,
' by women and girls, while the men and boys
sat at the sides of the hall.
Some of the children were toddlers; most of
them from 0 to 8 years of age. Among the
little girls in the first line, just under the pul-
pit, were two grandchildren of Brigham
Ymmg—oae a flaxen haired and sweet faced
creature of about 8, the other younger and
darker and saucier in features, but‘also agirl.
All the little folks ware prettily and plainly
draned, the health was on their cheeks and
the gleams of happy homes in their eyes. Yet
some of their fathers were in the penitentiary
serving terms for polygamy,- and the fathers
of others were underground, perhaps. By
underground I do not mean'dead. The term
is in common use here, and is applied to the
Mormons who have been indicted and are in
hiding from the authorities. Some of the
women were very old,.but the young women
were fresh as flowers blooming in a garden,
and their charming toilets seemed to partake
of the modesty and reserve of the wearers.
There were wee bits of boys in one class, and
there were sensible, saber looking young men
from 18 to 24 years in another. More than a
dozen of the occupants of side benches seemed
to have reached the age of 40. There were
evidences in the general appearance of the as-
semblage of the thrift, order and neatness for
which the Mormon people are remarkable.
The exercises opened with a prayer by the
superintendent, in which be thanked God for
the privilege of spending another Sabbath to-
gether, and asked new blessings at his hands.
Then there was a hymn. One of the gentle-
man on the platform next recited a prayer,
and a second hymn followed.
Atwood took the pulpit and told the
school that he was about to bless the bread
and prepare the sacrum-cut. He explained
the meaning of the communion and said the
bread was blessed and broken in commemo-
ration of the body of Christ. It was a grand
privilege to be permitted to partake of the
sacrament—a privilege that was granted only
to the true children of God. The few words
spoken by the bishop were simple and to the
point. The tonderest child could understand
them. This explanation of the sacrament
is made every Sunday, and the children are
ouch time told to take the bread with their
right hand and to be sure that the hand is
uncovered.
"immediately affor the bishop said this to-
day, the little ones began pulling off their
gloves and mitts. The bread was blessed
In :t few words, the Lord being called upon
to sanctity it and to extend his sanctiflcation
10 the bodies of those who received it. After .
the blessing two small boys came forward,
and, taking the cake bukets, passed them
along the seats. Every person in the building
except the correspondent took one of the
cubes of bread and ate it. Some little
ones grabbed up a cube and clapped it
into their mouths with a grin. Others dipped
thpir left hands into the basket, but were
quickly corrected. One or two of the old
folks used their left hands. The sacrament,
though, was impressivelyadministered, and
I do not think thestatement made by Gentiles
will hold, that the Mormon’s method of deal-
in g with the viaticum is sacrilegious. It does
look rather foolish to allow 6-year-old chil-
d ren to partake of it, but nearly every one of
the old people present today began to eat
the blessed bread in such assemblages as this
when they were youngsters, and they do not
appear to have aIIOWed familiarity to blunt
tucir appreciation of the sacred quality of
the proceeding.
passed around, a sacramental hymn, written
by Eliza R. Snow, the Mormon poetess, now
aged 83 years, was sung.
The next thing in order was blessing the
water. Missionary Lyon did this, using the
smile formula as that spoken in blessing the
bread. Bishop Atwood had explained in his
talk to the children that water is used instead
of; wine, because Joseph Smith had the fact
revealed tohim that wine was ndulterated,
and it was better to use pure water than had
wine; after awhile, when -, the people became
richer, wine would be used in the sacrament.
The water that was blessed was contained in
the silver pithers. Goblets were filled and
passed around, each' individual taking a sip.
“Beautiful Zion" was sung,‘ and after that
twenty minutes were devoted to reading les-
sons. The children went into one roourwith
teacher's—the young men into another. The
ladies sat in their seats and read where they
were. The youngsters were told Bible stories.
The old folks :ead the Scriptures, and the
young men, who constituted what was called
t :e‘ theological class, read from the Book of
Mormon. In twenty minutes they reassem-
Mod, and the school sang.
Missionary Lyon commended the progress
which the school was, making, and told his
hearers to fear God, and do no evil. Then
Mr. I’m-ks, who is, I believe, a high priest,
spoke the benediction, asking the Lord to
bless the church and its children and its
Officials, and to send wisdom and the light of
the Gospel into the hearts of those who were
oppl'cssillg the Church of Jesus Christ. This
ended the school exercises—Salt Lake Cor.

' .1 Check to the Feast.
The mummy trade was supported by vari-
ous classes of the community, for artists do
clared that mummy powder beaten with oil
gave richer tones of brown than any other
substance, and modern perfumers found
means of preparing the perfumes and spices
found inside the body, so as to make them
exceedingly attractive to the ladies. Paper
manufacturer-I found that the wrappings of
the mummies could be converted into coarse
paper for the use of grocers, and the cloth
and rugs were sometimesuscd as clothing—at
least so we are told by Alrdallalif, a traveler
of the Twelfth century. who also record show

Ghizeh a jar carefully sealed, which be open-

honey that he could not resist eating a good
deal of it, and was only checked in his feast
by drawing out a hair, whereupon ho investi-
gated further and found the body of an
ancient Egyptian baby in good condition
and adorned with jewels. He does not record

Internal Revenue “Mixed Drinks.”
When whisky, ruin, gin, or any of the
stud known as ”hard liquors” are now re-
ceived they are all mixed together and poured
Info barrels. This destroys the distinctive
quality of each and makes a compound that
the hardest drinker would turn from in dis—
gust, and whose smell alone would make. a
sober man see snakes. When about ten bnr- '
rels of this has accumulated the collector of
internal revenue is notified, and he [tends one
or his officers to gauge the liquor and certify
to the proof and amount. The ofllccr also

has been made unfit ‘for its original purpose,
It may be made salable again In the form of

portion to the amount of alcohol which it

fix cents per gallon. Wines are served In the

An Honor to the Navy.
A service journal describes the appointment
of the Prince of Wales as honorary admiral
of the fleet as “a great honor to the navy." It
seems to me to be a most fantastical puerility,
and one calculated to bring both navy and
prince into ridicule and contempt. The
Prince of \Vales has merely received this ap
pointmeut in order that he may be qualified
to wear another becoming uniform. There
seems to be no limit to the tailoring crane
which now prevails in what are termed “ex-
alted quarters. ” Even George IV never went
to the length of getting himself made an ad-
mlral. .it is a grievdus resurrection of the

SCROFULOUS ULCIIS.
James E. Richardson, Custom Ilouse, Now Or-
leuns, on oath says: "In 1870 Scrofulous Ulcers
broke out on my body until I was a mass of cor-
ruption. Everything known to the medical faculty
was tried In vuiu. I became a mere wreck. At
times could notllft my hands to my head; could
not turn in bed ; was In constant pain and looked
upon life as a curse. No relief or cure in ten
years. in 1880 I heard of the Cullcura Remedies,
used them and was perfectly cured.
Sworn to before J. S. Com. J. D. CIIAwroan.
ONE 01" THE WORST CASES.
We have been selling your Cutlcum Remedies
for Years. and have the first complaint yet to re-
ceive from a purchaser. One of Ike worst cases of
Scrolula 1 ever saw was cured by themes of live
bottles of Cutlcuru Resolvent, (lutlcura and Cull-
cura Soup. The 5021 takes the “cake" here as a
medicinal soap. ' AYLOR & TAYLOR, _

And Contagious Iiumors, With Loss of flair and
Eruptions of the Skin, are positively cured by

DBUGGIS’II USE Tlllill.
We have obtained satisfactory results from the
use of the Cullcura Remedies In our own family,

Choking Catarrh.
Ilave you awakened from u disturbed sleep with
all the horrible sensations of an assassin clutching
your throat and pressing the life breath from your
tightened chest? Have you noticed the lauguor
and deblllly that succeeded the effort to clear your
throat and head of this catarrhal matter? What a
depressing influence it exerts upon the mind,
cloudlng the memor and filling the head with
pains and strange no see! How difficult it Is to
rid the nasal passages, throat and lungs of this,
poisonous mucus all can testify who are aflllcted
with catarrh. How difficult to protect the system
against Its further progress towards the lungs,
liver and kidneys. all physicians will admit. It is
a terrible disease, and cries out for relief and cure.

other remedies utterly fall, of Museums RADICAL

LUCK OF JERSEY FISHERMEN.
While Summer Idlers Sleep the Natives
Begin Their Toll of-tho Sea.
Summer idler-s along the Jersey coast sel-
dom rise early enough to see tho'nntive fisher-
men begin their day’s work, though the sight
is well worth the low of an horn-’5 sleep.
IVhile the sun is still low and the horiron dim
with mist, the little boats are launched
through the surf and rowed beyond‘». the
breakers. Then the sails are set and V 0
little crafts are soon keeled over and makin
for the open sea. They rise and full as buoy- \fi
antas corks, and asthey bob up here and
lose themselves from sight behind a huge
wave then they remind one of the profile
boats used in theatrical representations.
As a rule, a fishing fleet consists of about
ten beats. They go out and return together.
Each boat could easily accommodate six
persons, but two is the usual complement.
It is regarded as unsafe to carry more.
When the spot where the» fishing is to be car-
ried on is reached they cast out their
anchors about 400 or 500 yards apart, and
proceed to fill the bow with all manner of
fish. Spanish mackerel, flounders, bluefisli
and sea bass constitute the major portion of
a Jersey fisher-man‘s catch, although they
sometimes book a kingfish or a dogfish. They
use the simplest kind of tackle and the flesh
of. fish for bait. About 10 o’clock they start
for home and land always at one place. Ono
after another they come in on the crest of a
huge wave and land far up on the sand. It
takes science to land a. boat in this way, and
sometimes the fishermen wait half an hour
fora wave to “home them.” It pays to be
cautious, however, for to upset a boat means
to lose the result of a day’s work.
The homes of the fishermen stand back
from the shore among the knotted and
twisted pine trees. Theyare low, shingled
cottages, with ceiling only high enough to
permit a man to stand upright. The windows
are small and seem tobeof use more for
ventilation than giving light. Here the fish-
erman takes his fish. He cleans them and
packs them away, readyto be sent to the
nearest market. The pay, however, for all
this risk of life, all this work and a winter of
hardship, is very little. Occasionally a fish-
erman will bring home a catch that will net
him atidy sum, but it happens more often
that he gets only enough to provide himself
with the commonest necmitios of life. His
earnings are less than a laborer-’5, and were it
not for the amateur fishermen who often ac-
company him, only to get wet, hungry and
seasick, the Jersey fisherman would be even
worse off than he is—New York Mail and
Express.
Melodies Concealed in Strange Places.
“How did you start that music box play-
ingi” asked a reporter of a dealer.
“I didn’t start it,” returned the merchant.
“Who did, then?”
“You. You accidentally touched a spring
in the end of the box with your coat sleeve
as you brushed by. The mechanism of these
boxes is very delicately made nowadays, and
they are constructed with great ingenuity.
But sit down while we talk.”
The reporter took a seat and the strains of
“Farandall” from “Olivetto” floated from be-
neath the chair.
“Have a cigar?" He turned a cigar. stand,
and there came out of it the air. of the drink
Ing song “Girofle Girofla, 4‘-
“Tbis is the 'cture of our Swiss factory.”
As the album was opened there came out of
it an air from “Fra Diavolo.”
“Will you take a pinch of sand?”
As the lid was raised there was u. whisper of
“Should Auld Acquaintanco be Forgot?"
“We have a customer who has a music box
attachment to his front door, and his visitors
are always greeted by a tune. A music box
can be concealed iu'a very small compass,
and one of the reigning demands is for arti-
cles that contain them, so as to create pleas-
ant sul rises, Dolls, clocks and hooks are
rovid . with them. Nearly all of the music
xes are made in St. Croix or Geneva in
Switzerland.”— New York Mail and Express.
Tho Prince's chvest Tipplo.
Tho newest liquid palate tickler that the
Prince of Wales has learned to mix is neither
a simple nor a modest drink, Moreover, the
flavor to our mind (for we have tasted it)
does not warrant the trouble of getting to-
gether the ingredients and the care neces-
sary for a successful brew. The following
are some of the requirements for the blend-
ing of the tipplc: Rye whisky, champagne,
Maraschino, Angostura hitters, lemon peel, a
piece of pineapple, powdered sugar and ice.
The chief charm to him who imbibcs such a
mixture must be that he is indulging in what
is necessarily quite an exclusive drink—Mod-
ern Society.
