French Women aa Bnalnesa Helper. Miss Anna L. Bicknell writes an article on "French Wires and Mothers" for the Century. She says: In the families where the father conducts any business the wife becomes his best clerk, and usually his cashier. The wives are exceedingly Intelligent and acute, extremely sharp at driving bargains, and accurate In keeping accounts. Tbey are their husbands' partners in every senso of the word, and it is wonderful to see how they acquit themselves of such a multiplicity of duties. Self Is completely annihilated; and If weak health is mentioned, it is never an impediment to what they have to do for their children or their husbands, but is mentioned only as a disagreeable accompaniment to a necessary fatigue, without an idea of using It as an excuse for shortcomings.

Prince Albert, Sank., August IT, 1898. William HcCreary, Esq., Immigration Commissioner, Winnipeg, Man.: Sir We, the undersigned delegates from Kansas and Nebraska. TJ. S. A., in reporting the results of our trip to Dauphin, and subsequently to Begins, Prince Albert and the middle Saskatchewan country, beg to say that our tickets were limited to twenty-one days, and as we had other large regions to visit, we could only upend a short time In the Dauphin country. We examined, however, the principal cultivated areas in the southern parts of township 23, range 19, the great wheat fields of Wlshart, Buchanan, Owen, Smith, Bon, Sinclair, the Whitmores, Drlnkrwaters, etc., and, subsequently, others to the north, and never, in our experience, have we seen finer grain. The whole country is watered by numerous streams flowing from the slopes of Biding Mountain, and excellent well water ia found -everywhere, at from nine to eighteen feet Extensive forests of spruce and tamarack cover the northern parts of the mountains, from which timber is manufactured in Dauphin and elsewhere, and sold at from 12 a thousand at the mills. Wild hops and wild fruits are abundant, and ripen In the open air. Vegetation throughout Is surprisingly luxuriant and, without hesitation, we would rank the whole region among the best graingrowing areas of the continent. The output of wheat last year was about 75,000 bushels, but this year it is estimated at over a million. WAtward lie the homestead lands which now, and when fresh surveys are completed, will afford comfortable homes to thousands of diligent families. The great Gilbert Plains also we were unable to visit, where graingrowing has been conducted with the best results for years, and which will become a-vast wheat field as soon as a branch railway reaches there. Settlement is speeding In all these regions, reminding us Indeed of the early days In our own States; and as we have examined, since our visit to Dauphin, a portion of the great country lying south and east of Prince Albert we can readily imagine the tide of immigration which will soon flow Into the Canadian West (Signed.)

In the House on Thursday two publit building bills itttachril by the Senate t bills for public buildings in oilier cities were agreed to, one appropriating $250,000 for a building nt I.os Angeles, Cal., and the other $75,000 for a building at New Brighton, Pa. A number of conference reports on minor bills were ntlopted. Mr. Payne (Ki-p.. N. Y.I, the floor leader of the majority, moved the passage, under suspension of the rules, oC I ho bill appropriating $fi00,000 for the Pan-Anierienn exposition to be held at Buffalo, N. Y., in 1001. The bill was passed, 141 to 10. Mr. Southard followed this motion with a motion to suspend the rules and pass a bill to appropriate $500,000 for the Ohio centennial exposition to be held at Toledo. The bill was passed, 120 to 10. Mr. Mercer (Rep., Neb.) moved to suspend the rules and puss the Senate bill appropriating $1,000,000 for a new building for the deportment of justice in Wasbinston. At Mr. Cannqg's request an amendment was adopted limiting the cost of the building to $1,000,000, nnil ns amended the bill was passed. During almost the entire session the Senate was engaged in routine business. Three score or more of minor bills were passed, the calendar being cleared entirely of private pension bills and of measures correcting military and navnl records. Two measures of national importance were passed the fortitieutious appropriation bill and the bill providing a code of criminal laws for the district of Alaska. Friday was the last duy of the congressional session. Sessions in both houses were prolonged through Friday night. During the day the army bill brought Senator Foraker to the front with his amendment to prohibit the granting of franchises in Cuba and led to debate participated in by half the Senators on the floor. The overwhelming vote by which the amendment was passed after the provision for the withdrawal of the troops had been stricken out indicated a derided opinion that will have weight in the labors of the colonial board. The bill was passed as amended. The river and harbor bill

from conference led to filibustering, headd by Senator Carter, to secure au appro

priation for irrigating the and west and threatened the passage of the bill. There was considerable debate on vUe sundry civil bill, which was finally passed. A bill providing for a Government exhibit at and to encourage the Ohio centennial and northwest territory exposition to be held at Toledo, Ohio, and appropriating $500,000, was passed. The following bills were passed: To Incorporate the National White Cross of America, amending the Internal revenue laws relating to distilled spirits, authorizing the construction of a bridge over the Tennessee river at Sheffield, Ala.; authorizing the Washington and Gettysburg Railroad Company of Maryland to extend its line of road into the District of Columbia. A bill providing a site for the Washington public 11irary building. In the House the army ill was passed with all the Senate atnend-nents.

GOlERHOR H'CORD Recommends Peru-na i All Catarrh Vicliins.

AQUINALDO'S YOUTH.

Hon. H. H. McConu. Hon. Myrou H. McCord, ex-Goveruor of New Mexico, in a letter to Dr. Hart inau, from Washiugiou, D. C, says: Gentlemen At the suggestion of a friend I was advised to use Pe-ru-na for catarrh, ami after using one bottle 1 began to feel better in every way. It helped me iu many respects. I was troubled with colds, coughs, sure throat, etc., but as soon as I had takeu your medicine I begnu to improve and soon got well. I take pleasure in recommending your great remedy to all who are utllicted with catarrh. M. H. MeCord. Thousands of cases of chronic catarrh have been cured by Pe-ru-ua during the past wiuter. Iu spite of changeable wetither, iu spite of the natural setbacks from catching cold, and confinement to illy ventilated rooms, the great catarrh remedy Pe-ru-na has effected these cures. But now spring is here. The days are longer, the sun is warmer, and the bliiziird is gone for another year. This presents a much more favorable opportunity for the peruiaueut cure of chronic catarrh, especially old, stubborn cases. Now is the time to begin treatment. Other things beiug equal, one mouth's treatment in the spriug is worth two mouths' treatnirut during the inclement weather of winter. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na. Tlere arc no successful substitutes for this remedy. Send to Dr. Hattman, Columbus, Ohio, for a free catnrrh book.

Ha Was Precocious and Ambitious, and Learned n Lot of Thlngrs. Agulnaldo was an apt scholar. Ha

was precocious, like the Malay; ambi

tious, like the Caucasian, and he had a memory like that of the Chinaman the greatest memory possessed by man. At the age of seven he was the equal of most half-breed boys of twelve, and at ten he was mentally the superior of most of the Taguls aud half-breeds of the district. Wlieu he was fourteen or fifteen he was enrolled in the medical department of the 1'oullncal University of Manila, under Profs. Nulda and Builrago. He was a bright student, but nothing Is kuown of his college career. Shortly after this time he commuted what Is au uupai'douable slu, both secular and religious, iu the Philippines by Joining the Masonic order. Masonry was a prohibited thiug lu the Philippines under Spanish rule, aud any man Joining the order might under au ancient law be tortured ami executed. About this time tin 1888i he had some trouble with the authorities and went to Hong Kong, where there was a fair sized colony of Philippine exiles and also of Filipinos who had crossed the China sea In business enterprises. Here he obtained his first knowledge of the great world outside of the narrow Spanish civilization in which he had been brought up. He attended the drills and parades of the British garrisons, frequented the gun shops on Queen's road, purchased firearms for his own use, and In every way tried to Increase his fund of practical knowledge. According to report, he crossed over into Kowloon and served a short time iu the Chinese army, an i there, finding that nothing more could be learned from the corrupt mandarins who officered the troops, but never drilled them, he obtaiued his discharge and joined the crew of a Chinese warship which had some European Instructors. He met the late Captain McGiffin, and Is said to have served under him several months. Whether these rumors be true or not, oue thing Is clear during his stay In Hong Kong and that neighborhood he gained a wide knowledge of warfare, both military and naval, and read many works upon strategy and the campaigns of Bonaparte, Wellington, Von Moltke and Grant, and there are numerous photographs in existence lu that city of him in both soldier and sailor uniforms. During the past year be has surprised many new acquaintances with bis knowledge and accurate opinions upoa the famous battles and generals of Europe and America during the present century.

There is mors catarrh in this section of the country than alt other diseases put together, and until tliu last few yean was supposed to be Incurable, For a great many years doctors pronounced It a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly falling to cure with local treatment pronounced it incurable.

The Aire of a.11 Oyster. He who wishes may 11 ud out the exact aj;e of an oyster, '.hough he has not the telltale evidence in teeth. The Hues In the groove of the binge of the shell tell the whole story, each line representing a year. An oyster is of age at four years; that is, he is old enough to vote, tuke care of a family, aud go to market. Going to market is a disastrous undertaking, for a 4-year-old oyster 16. particularly palatable. By this It must not be supposed that after an oyster has passed the four-layer period and has five, six, or eveu ten wrinkles on his shell he is a back number. Indeed, there are records of oysters being eaten, just after celebrating their thirtieth birthday, and lo most cases they formed a delicious meal. Thirty is an unusual age for an oyster to attain, be

cause few are given an opportunity to live so long. If left to enjoy life In bis

own way, It is quite probable that the

oyster would beeotna an octogenarian or even centenarian. Captain Cochrane on his last trip to Fulton market brought in an oyster found on his beds thnt is believed to be at least 35 years old.

WHAT "KALSOr"ME8" ARE. Kal3onilnis are cheap and temporary preparations, manufactured from whiting, chalks, clays, etc They are stud: oa the walls with decaylug auluial glue, Alabastine Is not a kalsoinlue.
