Ifce.tra.wa Carpets. Thorn Is an excellent way of lyffij bedroom carpets, In booses where rugs re not tho rule. Fasten small, strong hooks in the baseboard, close to the edge of the carpet sew corresponding rings. Slip the rings over the hooks, and the carpet is soccrb.y laid. Of course a few tacks must be pnt where the carpet crosses doorway, but these are quickly removed. By this method, which is employed in the sleeping rooms of many hotels, a carpet may frequently be taken up, thoroughly shaken and replaced, without much more labor than would be required to sweep it while, on the Boor.

Cit AlEK XII. "Mr. Beverly's down stairs, and he Wants to sea yon. Mercy, look what you have done." "No; your fault, Joannette. You spoke so suddenly." "Well, who thought yon was going to Jump up in that stylo. Yon might havo killed the kitten, besides putting a grease spot on the carpet, and breaking file saucer." Yes, I know) but I didn't, you see. Which one is it?" "It belongs to the beet set and there ain't but four " "Oh, I don't mean the saucer. I'm talking about the man. Is it " "It's to. Beverly. The Hr. Beverly, if thac's what you mean. Don't f!y up again now, and I hope you 11 soon bo going down too, or he'll w.ar oul; the oarpet with his walking. Ho don't seem able to keep still." "Angry," thought Mary, dushing some cold water on her cheeks. "I wonder if I had not better change this dress. I have made It so wet, " This chunge or costume was a longer process than she had bargained for. So many wrong hooks got into so many wrong eyes, that both time nnd patience were required to set them right, and after the task was finally accomplished her face was so red and so hot as to necessitate another application of cold water. "I hope he is angry, " she said under her breath, as she reached the lower hall and heard the rapid walking that Jeannette had rather deprecated. "If he is angry he may say something which I oan answer back, and then I may get rid of this dishrag sort of feeling. "Good morning," she aided aloud, though in a slightly unsteady voice, as she cune to a sharp standstill in the doorway. ' "Have you seen grandpa?" "Yes. But I did not come to see him. I came to see you. Will you come in, please, and ait down?" Thus invited, Mary took possession of a chair neax the door, and Jack retained his standing position in the center of the room. "I received your grandfather's letter," he continued after a second, during which her face had turned various colors under his glance, "and your message acknowledgment, rather. Have you nothing to add to it, Mary?" The tone, more than the words, gave Mary such a spasm of contrition that she cried quite vehemently. "I do want you to forgive me, if you only oan." The next second Jack had lifted her burning face to the light. "I believe I oan," he returned in a tender voice, "though yon have been so cruelly hard upon me. How could you think me such a villain, Mt.ry? " "Don't look at me in that wayl" she ezolaLned, trying to cover her face from his sight. "I can caver, never be sorry enough. I know I've been hateful, and jealous, and sua " "Ho more adjectives, please. I will simply add, for my own gratification, that you have been a very proud girl, who would not give poor Jack a ehance to vindicate himself . That comes with good grace from me, but you must not call yourself names. I cannot allow it. You are too precious to me." Here Jack found his face so near hers that he thought it expedient to give some extra proof of his assertion. "If you care to be precious to me, he added, after this slight interruption. "I think you are a very generous man," was Mary's only answer. "Am I? I don't know that I deserve very great credit. My generosity is wholly selfish. But, such as it Is, I'm waiting for you to reward it. I feel that I have beea in the lowest depths for the last nwo or three days, and am only beginning to enter heaven. Repeat the promise you made before, Mary. Darling, say you will be my wife." He clasped his arms about hor waist, and drew her toward him with passionate inteniiity. "Oh, Jack," she cried, with considerable protest, you have such a way." "I can't help it," he returned. "I must show you how dearly I love you. You have not answered my question, either. Wili yon " "You know I will," wus hor highly convincing reply, att her face dropped out of sight on his shoulder. "It is ali I wish," he responded, happily content. "What a happy man you have made me. And yet," he added, with much reproach, "you would havo allowed me to mope in misery, rather than say, 'Jack, I want yau.' What a proud, eruel girl. I have had to make aii tne advances. "And I am very glad you havo," replied Mary, frankly. "You could do it, and I couldn't. How did I know you cared any longer? I thought you might not; and suppose I had said, 'Jink, I want; you,' and you didn't want me." Mnry sighed over the bare suggestion of this prospect. "Impossible possibility," rejoined Jack, "if the remark lie not paradoxical. I think I must punish you for even entertaining it. Though I ilon't half believe yon did. You really could not in conscience, you know." "I won't think so any more," s?hi promised by way of reparation. "I intend to improve very much. You don't know how good I am going to be." "Don't I," he whispered very lovingly. "My own darling, I don't c.ire to know. I am satisfied with you as you are. The thorns only make my rose more sweet." "May I come in?" asked a quiet voico at the door. "Certainly," reasoned Jack wholly unabashed. You find us in quite a botanical vein." "You don't believe him, do you V cried Mary, leaving Jack rather precipitately, and placing her hand half shyly in her grandfather's. "You can guess 'a great many things, can't you? I suppose you knew he was here." "Ym, my dearest," was the old gentleman's .reply, as he placed his arm around her and looked with kindly eyes npon her happy, shining face. "I saw him first. But I will say that he only gave me time to assure him that, though he is not the son of my old friend, he has nevertheless won a place in my heart which no one can take from him." "A most encouraging assurance, " put in Jack. "It leads me to hope that you may the more readily receive me as a grandson. I have decidedly sot my heart on that relationship, and Mary can not make up her mind to do without me." "I always said he had assurance," whiskered Mary, rubbing her cheek against her grandfather' h sleeve. Tho old fentleman smiled upon her with inexpressible affection. Then, giving his band to Jack, he said very earnestly: "Mary's face tells its om story. You are a most fortunate young man. She is worth her weight to gold." "A jewel without price," added Jack, emphatically. "If you will excuse me, grandpa, I think I had better be going. It is rather embarrarteing, " "Ho, bo, Masry. Stay, ny dear. We have reached the climax, I am sure. This is the old story repeated. We old men guard and love our children for years, only to have them leave us at lost few the first likely young man who comes long." "Oh, grandpa!" cried Mary, throwing her arms about his neck, "bow can you bake such a remark? Before him, too! Yea know there isn't my young man I

would leave you for. I hope he understands that, "He does," assured .tack, with uhdisi tttrbod gravity, "thourih he would orefer a more complimentary designation bf nimseii chapter xni. "I had a letter from hiy namesake this morning;" "Did you?" asked Mnry. "What did ho have to say for himself ?" "Oh, ever so much. Ho is groaning over the prospect of an early return to New York, which reminds mo that I must be jogging, too. He also suggests the propriety of a double wedding at an early date, and advises that the two Jacks decide upon some plan of action, to prevent all mistakes on the part of the world in general, or of their respective Wives in particular.1' 'I heartily indorse tho proposition and agree with him that in this age of (protection there should be protection for Jacks, as well ns for other industries, articles, or iniividuals." "Didn't you send that man here, Jack?." "What man?" "That Mr. Beverly." "No, ma'am. Ho came of his own free will." "But you knew ho was coming, and you suspected I had hoard something, and you rather hoped his explanation Would make things straight." "To each and every ono of those questions I answer yes," "Well, and what did you expect I Would do?" Jack laughed heartily at the question so earnestly put. "Beaily," he responded, stroking his mustache. "I wouldn't risk exoeotina I with such an extraordinary young lady, j but I am satisfied with what you did do." I "I did nothing. Please remember j that. You did everything." ! "All right; I'll bear tho responsibility. ! Now, I want to do something else. I ! have something I got in Now York the : other day. I took tho chance of its fltting. It will be a tangible proof that I ' am about to take a life interest in you. i Hold out your hand, sweetheart." As he spoke he drew it ring from his pooket and held it between his forefinger and thumb. "Now, beforo we put it on," he said, "I wish it to be understood that I am not engaged to any more beautiful or more brilliant young lady, and further " "Jack, If you iuBist upon recalling tilings I shall grow angry, and then you will not be engaged even to me." "Even to you! Why make yourself so insignificant. I foresee wo must hasten the wedding, or that lamentable prospect may come to pass. "However, we'll keep to the matter in hand, being this ring, and my littlo observation--made with tho sole view of satisfying your very active mind. That point being attained, we'll proceed with the ceremony." Taking the hand, which she holf reluctantly held towards him, he kissed the ring and slipped it upon her finger. "This for the present, my darling," he added, with tender earnestness. "In a little while I shall place the seal of our union thore." Then, folding her in his arms, ho continued, very lovingly: "Oh, Mary, oan you guesa how dear you are to me?" "I think I can," she answered, resting her face upon his shoulder, "because I know how dear you are to me. Is that a thought I shouldn't express?" "No, indeed. That is a thought you should express," returned happy Jack, kissing her fondly. "It completes my happiness, for it assures me that nothing stands between us. That you are all mine "Until tbe sun grows cold And tbe stars are old And the leaves of tho Judgment Book unfold." fTHB END. 1 The case of Dr. Palmer, recently sentenced to the penitentiary from Kacine, Wis., for petty burglaries, is a sad one. In the prime of life, of fine family, highly educated, well up In his profession and honored in polities, he blasted his life in a manner that he, of all men, should have avoided. He was an opium fiend, and under the influence of that drug lost all sense of moral responsibility. Inquiry develops the fact that, the number of physjeians who yield to the seduction of some demoralizing drug is incredibly large. Whether this is the result of familiarity with the pernicious narcotics through dispensing them to patients, or comes from taking them at flisfc on account of overwork and exhaustion, does not affect the fact. Invalids to whom has been administered opium, morphine, cocaine or valerian, as required by their maladies, have some excuse for yielding to undue indulgence, but it does seem that physicians, who know the nature of these drugs, would avoid the terrible consequences of becoming slaves to them. Every little while there appears in the presi the story of some brilliant physician who has gone from eminence to the asylum or the gutter because a victim to some enticing drug. What tragedies tuay have resulted while doctors have been practically under such baneful influence can never be known, for they bury their mistakes. But one who will so far lose his self-control as to break into a corner grocery store to steal a few pennies, for which ho bad no earthly need, as did Dr. Palmer, is scarcely such a physician as rme would want when hovering between life and death. Some conservative practitioners have raised tho question as to whether opium, morphine, and the quicker poisons, arsenic and strychnine, are not administered too frequently and without proper regard to possible consequences. Certain it is that the number of those who have an inordinate craving for stimulating or soothing drugs is on the increase, as are those who suffer shattered nerves, unbalanced minds, or death, in consequence. Japanese Carving Japanese art is supreme in wood and ivory carving. Sir Edwin Arnold declares, in "Seas and Lands," there is dothing known to him itEurope that comes near what Japanese workmen can achieve. A specimen of Ivory carving was shown to him which represented a hag of rice with two or three dngen nils in and upon it. Every rut was as individual in character, position, and action as if a special portrait had been taken of him, and the web of th? bag, the glistening grains of rice, and t he sleek fur of the rodents could not have been better expressed in painting. At an art store in Yokohama he examined a piece of wood carving, representing two life-sized wrestlers straggling in the wring! Every muscle and every vein was delineated, every tendon and ligament was anatomically perfect. 1 1 ike men who are temperate and moderate in everything. An excessive zaal for that which is good, thoujjh it may not bo offensive to me, at all events raise my wonder and leaves mo in a difficult:' how I should call it. Montaigne. Till! first tesd, of lov e is its willingness to eiift'or without complaint.

The danger line has been reached and the mighty stream has already spread itself over territory not rightfully its own, doing great damage to its banks and to tho movable property of citizens along the shore between Bremen on the north and Eler dos Peres on the south. Tho rise came within thirty-six hours, and tho water Is still creeping up. Near the Merchant' bridge, in Nortii St. Louis, scores of men ill the employ of the lumber companies are at work securing lumber piles from the water. Last Saturday these piles were from twenty to thirty feet from the water. Wnero the river seemB to hove created the greatest havoo Is a squatter settlement about half a mile below the Merchants' bridgo, called "Oklahoma." The greater number of the squatters' homes are small flatboatu or floating houses, some of them in tho water, others on land supported on stilts. The danger line is 28 foot for a number of houses along tho river front. At last reports tho water was 27 feet 7 inches. Damage Beyond Estimation. Near Brunswick, Mo., the Missouri and Grand Rivors have been rising rapidly for several days. Monday was spent in rescuing tho inhabitants of the bar south of that plnee, which was formed about twenty years ago by the Missouri Eiver changing its ohannel, and has lately become valuable tanning land. Much stock was also taken off the bar. Hundreds of acres are covered by tho floods nnd dozens of homes destroyed. Monday evening tho ferryboat, loaded with people and horses, was broken from its cable by drift and floated clown the stream. One woman fell into the river, but was rescued. The drifting ferry-boat was carried ilown the stream for almost four miles, where it landed on a bar In the Missouri River aid the people were rescued byj some usuerineu, Munli salTering in Nebraska Never has Nebraska experienced such a long-continued down-pour of rain. Tho Missouri River is nine feet above low water mark. There is no flood at Omaha, but reports from points below indiealo that the river is rising rapidly and already out of its bonks and flooding the Iowa and Missouri bottomlands. Reports from all along the lines of the Omaha roads tell of rain and snow in Iho Black Hills and in Western Nebraska and cloudiness all the way to Salt Lake. All trains were late and there are a number of washouts reported, though, none of taem nave caused accidents, i here is a washout between Beatrice and Lincoln on the Union Pacific branch, and the Rock Island main line trains are ueing tho Burlington tracks instead. The rain has so filled tho approaches of the Missouri Paoific Plattsmouth bridge that the opening of the bridge has been delayed until June.

At Ottumwa, Iowa, a heavy rain has sot the Des Moines River booming again.- The water has risen rapidly and continues to rise. The rain, it is feared, will swell the river to tho highest point since 185G, when all the city except that part on the hills was submerged. Dead Farm Animals Floating Il;r. The Maumee near Toledo, Ohio, is on tho rampage, being higher than was ever known before, except at the floods paused by ice gorge in 1883 nnd 1S81.

The Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, N. Y., is preparing to make it notable exhibit. A i oLTa'.oTios of finely mounted binds nnd animal will be shown in the Pennsylvania building. A Nkw Jebsev pottery firm is miking k large number of specimens of fine work for exhibition at tho Fair. The gold and silver and other m ineral exhibits at the Exposition will probably aggregate in value several million dollars. A TEiiEPHONK exchange having, it is now thought, about 000 instruments, will be established in the Imposition grounds. It is (he Intention1 , if possible, to arrange for a grand International regatta for both talt and fresh w.iter yachts during the exposition. It is announced that the Pope has directed that specimens of the beautiful mosaic pictures, made at the niosuio w.irlis in tho Vatican, shall be exhibited at the Exposition. A company has been grunted the privilngo of carrying visitorr by lake to mid from the Exposition grounds. It is planning to run at. least fourteen steamers.

BO SAYS THE WRITER OF THAT FAMOUS LETTER. Be ltelterates His Statements, Produces Additional Proof and Clearly Deilnes nit Position, New York Bun. It would be difficult to measure the in terei t and comment, nbt to say excltettieut, which tbe iubl shed letter of I)r. K A. Gnni, which appeared in the papers yosterd ly. has occasioned. Tho promlnouee of tl o Doctor, ami the unusual iiuture of tho letter, have both tended to add interest to the 8'ihjoi t, and uiaue It really the talk of the tonu. 1 tailed upon Dr. Gunn at bis residence. No. U'4 West Feirty-sove.ith s'.reet. yesterday afternoon. 1 found the reception room cr.ndod, and It was only utter an hour's nailing that I succeeded in obtaining an interview. III. Uunn Is a distinguished-looking man. and Impressed lue at once by bis manly beui lng and air of sincerity, I tool: tho seat be courteously offered tno, and said! "Are you aware. Doctor, of tho commotion your letter has caused?" Dr. Gunn smiled and replied: "Things out :f the ordinary usually cause comment It h not a common thing for nbyslcluns to lmlcrso and cordially rocoinnjend medicines other than those in tho Materia Idediea. History is full of in t.mces of scientists who have Indorsed discoveries they boll sve to be valuable, and have beer denun iced for so doint, and yet these name dlscavorles are blessing the world to-day. I hope 1 hare the manhood and courauo to be true to my conviction), and that is why X so openly and unhesitatingly Indorse Warnor's Safe Cure as being the greatest ot modern discoveries for the cure of diseases which have baffled tho highest skill of tha medical profession " I was impressed with the earnestness of the Doctor, and saw that be mount very word that bo said. tllow long have you known ot this iemetfy. Doctor?" I asked. "Nearly ten years," he replied, "My attention wns originally called to iho Safe lurj by a serious case of itrlgbt's disouso, whloh wns considered hopeless, and yet, much to my surprise, under its uso the patient recovered. I have tried It in other oasis since then constantly, and my original faith in Its power has been cotifirinrd. I hare seen patients recover from inflammation of the bladder, grarol, and Bi Hint's disuaso when all other treatment had failed, and I have found it especially efficient In all femulo troubles. "Can you specify any particular oases, Doctor?" Tasked. Chat Is a delicate thing to do," tho Doctor replied; "but, as I always keep a wrt'.ton record of my cases, I can accommodate you." Xaereupon the Doctor opened lils desk and produced his record book. Turning over the leaves he said: "Here is a case of a gentleman who wns a great sufferer from inflammation of the bladder of loug standing. lie hud consulted u nuu'ber of physicians without benefit When first consulted I myself tried the usual methods of treatment, but nil lout success, and I finally advised him to try Warner's Safe Cure. He felt better from the start, and in a few weeks nas ent rely cured." 'I ho Doctor turned a few pages further, and then said: "'lore is another case. It la that of a gentleman who had frequent attacks of renal calculi, which, as you know. Is gravel fo:inlng In the kidneys, lie had never been abl'3 to prevent these formations, but after an .iii'jsuully severe attack I recommended httt to try the Safe Cure, which ho did, an, although it is three years since he too tbe remedy, he has nevor had an attack since." The Doctor continued to turn tho leaves of liis book, and suddenly exclaimed: " iloi e is a most remarkable case. It Is that ot a lady who bad suffered for sonio time from Brlght's disease. She became encleute, and about tho fourth tncnth suddenly became blind, bad convulsions, and finf.liy fell Into a slato of coma, caused by uremic ir kidney poison. Several physicians who saw her said she could not lire, ant. In this view 1 fully concurred. As she could still swallow I said, as a last resort, that they might try Warntr's Safe Cure. They did so, and to the surprise of every one ' she recovered. She has since given blub to a living thiid, and is perfectly woll." -Those are certainly most wonderful oases, Doctor," I said, "and while I do not for a moment question their authenticity I should consider It a great favor. If you would give mo their names, I think the imjiortance of the subject would fully justify it." "In the interest of other sufferers I think you are correct." Dr. Gunn finally observed. afur a moment's thought "Both tho lady and her husband aro so rejoiced, so grateful over her recovery, that I kno she Is only too glad to have others hear of it The lady Is Mrs. Eames. wife cf the well-known costurner. She was not only restored but is in perfect health to-day." I thanked the Doctor for bis courteous reception, for the valuable Information Imparted, and I feel assured that bis generous xnd humano nature will prevent him from feeding other than glad at seeing this interview published for the benefit of suffering humanity. Hlnlg for the Llbrarr. Never wet your fingers to turn over a leaf. Be warne-d by the fate of the King in the Arabian tale. Never turn down a corner of a page to hold your place. Never put in a soiled playingcard, or a stained envelope, or bit of dirty string, or a pie'ee of damp newspaper. Always use a regular bookmark. The simplest, and one of the best, is a card as large as a small visiting card. By cutting this twice longitudinally from one end almost to the other, you will have a three-legged book-mark which rides a-straddle of the page, one leg on the page below ami two on the page you wish the book te open at. Never allow your bonks to get damp, as they may mildew. Never allow thorn to get hot, as the boards may warp and tho leather may crack. . Never put them on a shelf high up near tho ceiling of a room lighted by gas, as the results of gas combustion aro highly injurious. Never put books with metal clasps or with embossed sides, or albums ornamented with decorative nails, on tho shelves, by tho side of other books, for the delicate bindings of the other liooks will suffer. Put all such hedgehogs of books in drawers or trays by themselves. Never let books lean sideways for a long time as it racks the covers. If the absence of one or more books from a shelf makes it difficult to keep the remaining volumes upright, insert a wondou block in tho place of the missing books. It is well to have a supply of ash or walnut blocks resembling in size and shape an octavo volume. If these aro at hand, one of them can bo substituted for any book tukon down, whether for study or to lend. A littlo slip of silie-ated paper glued on ono side of this block would enable a record to be kept, of the ditto when the book was taken away, and of tho purpose. When there are only a few books on a shelf, the best block to cause theso to stand upright is made by sawing diagonally in half a cube of wood six inches every way. Never attempt to classify books oa your si iel ves by tho colors of the bindings or by the sizes of tho books themselves. Put the works of an author together, us far as possible, however incongruous their sines may be. And try to keep books on the same and kindred subjects as close together as may bo convenient. Never leavo books or pamphlets out of sight in drawers for a long time without examination to see that the mice have not made a nest in the drawer out of the margins of the books. A simple Cure tor Stoutneas. A French paper has come out lately with a new, strange, and simple cure for stoutness. It is ono that will rocommi'iid Itself to otervbody from the absolute ease and safety with which It can be employed. It consists simply in never eating more thai; one disb at each meal, no matter what that dish is. A person may consume as much as the stomach can bear and satisfy tho appetite without the least reserve. Nevertheless, nothing but the one dish should betaken. No condiments, no soups, no supplementary desserts should be allowed. This Is said by many to be infallible. Most of us are too polite to look a glfr borne In the inoutli beraiisn ve worn never fortunato oiioukU to hava iwe.

Singular fatuity fatal delusion I Hostetter's Rtomach Hitters is a potent safeguard against the terrible inroads of this insidious and dangerous malady -dantjiirous because of its pro&Sness to attack tho heart, the seat of life.

Manure lor Hardens, It is entirely fallacious to suppose that garden crop?, whether flowers, fruit, or vegetables, gain a largo amount of nitrogenous plant food from atmospheric sources by means of their extended leaf surface. The quantity of combined iiitrogeu brought to the soil and growing plants by rain water and the atmosphere Is so Inconsiderable an amount, When compared with tho whole weight required by the crop, that we may fairly say no plants arc moro dependent on nitrogen In an available condition within tho soil than aro garden vegetables. No matter how good the normal condition of the soil may be, it will not long produce payint; crops of vegetables, or even fruits, without manure. Certain it is that If a garden will not pay with liberal manuring It will not pay without It. M. I.. THOMPSON CO..

When oxide of Iron is placed In contact with timber, ixcluded from tbe atmosphere and aided by a slightly increased temperature, tho oxide, will part with its oxygen and is converted into very finely divided particles of metallic Iron, having such an affinity for oxygen that, when after'-ard exposed to the action of the atmcsphero from any cause, oxygen is so rapidly absorbed that these particles become suddenly red hot, and, if in siifliclcut qiu.ntit ,', will produce a temperature far beyond the Ignition point of dry timber.
