Gladstone has A clear Head.

WHY?

Because he follows these rules: *1 Keep the head cool, the feet warm and the bowels open." Vou can have a clear head and live to be ninety if you do the same thing. •When the bowels fail to move during the day take on retiring two Smith's Small Dile Beans. Their .action is so mild that yea are not aware of it. All day your mind will ... be clear and cool. Not a gripe in a barrel of them." Ask for small size.

Excitement of an Ejavleil Dancer Before Her Appearance. When I first knew Paris, Taglioni had left the opera and Fannie Elssler roigned supreme the triumphant sucsess, however, obtained by her in the "Diable Boiteux," financially advantageous as it proved to the management, was by no means relished by her lady colleagues, who, finding themselves during the long run of the wallet completely shelved, unscrupulously profited by any mode of annoy tag and embarrassing their obnoxious tivaL One evening Burat de Gurgy, author of the libretto, knocked at the door of the charming dancer's dress-ing-room and found her in a great state of excitement. "My dear M. Burat," she exclaimed, "I am in a terrible rage. I have scarcely time to dress, and some one has stolen my chalk." "Your chalk!" began Burat. "Not a doubt of it. I have asked everybody for some, and they all say they have none. It ia a conspiracy, you see, to hinder me from dancing. So now, M. Burat, you will get me some, will you not?" "But, my dear lady, I don't know where to go for it." "Make hast«," insisted Fanny "I will pay whatever you like, but I tfiust have it. You have just a quarter of an hour before the curtain rises, and I shall expect you."

It was then 11 o'clock, and all the •hops were shut, consequently M. Burat was highly perplexed what to do. However, at last he returned, bringing five little bits of chalk, but looking extremely doleful. "Enfin!" exclaimed Mile. Elssler, triumphantly. "You are indeed a friend in need. What do I owe you?" "Twenty-five sous for five glasses of execrable cognac," was his answer. "I have been obliged to go to five cafes in order to steal the chalk from the billiard tableB."

TRIED TO DROWN THE SOUND.

A. Boarder's Experience With an Unusually Vociferous Alarm Clock. An alarm clock, according to the habit of the beast, always goes off at the wrong time and in a thin-walled building it always succeeds in wakinar the whole house as well as its owner. The wear and tear upon the temper of the community is consequently greater than that caused by the combined efforts of a forgetful janitor and an intermittent elevator. A young man in an uptown house in Washington who has been in the habit of oversleeping himself, recently purchased an alarm clock of imposing proportions, and a bell like a fire engine gong. As usual the thing went off about 3 a. m., and the owner, who had just fallen into a sound sleeps leaped wildly from his couch under the impression that the house was on fire or some other dire calamity had befallen. Occupants of adjoining rooms followed suit, and the objurgations heaped upon that unhappy alarm clock were both loud and long. A policeman on the beat blew his whistle under the impression that a riot was in progress, and the whole neighborhood was aroused. Meanwhile th# owner of the clock tried to stifle it in the bed clothes, but still it hammered away vehemently and made more racket than ever. Finally, in despair, he plunged the riotous timepiece into a jar full of water, where, at the expense of ruining its inner mechanism, its voice Was stilled. The young man now hires a newsboy to wake him.

A lady had almost decided to bny the coat she was trying on. The weary sales-woman breathed a sigh of relief. The customer had been hard to suit. Even yet she fingered the buttons and twitched the sleeves thoughtfully. "What was this fur when it was alive?" she asked abruptly, as she adjusted the collar. The Bales-woman hesitated and stammered. She was torn between a business-like desire to make a sale and a conscientious regard for the truth. Her confusion was painful. "Well, ma'am' we have to call it martin," she sand at last, "but it was skunk when it was alive.

How We Waste Our Substance. An American who has lived for several years in China has this to say about our national extravagancei "What the American family throws away would keep a European family from starving and would feed a Chinese or Japanese family. "Look at irtiis," and he produced a cylinder of bronze as large as a 'plug' hat. "Here is a Chinese stove, or oven. With four or five pieces of charcoal a Mongolian will make tea and cook rice and eggs over that, while an American domestic would use at least a hod of coal in the same oneration

PANNIE EUBSLER'S CHALK. WOOD PAVEMENT. A NAPOLEONIC INSLtC

An Improved Form Which Has Bee* Successful ID London. The jarrah and karri, two hardwoods native to Australia, are being largely used for paving carriageways in England, and espeoially in London, where the heavy traffic is most trying to the lasting qualities of pavements. The whole breadth of the road is first covered with a layer of cement concrete instead of sand, six inches deep and arched to the necessary convexity. On the top of this the wooded blocks are laid. The slipperiness after showers which the hardness of the wood entails is remedied by a sprinkling of sand, and in dry weather the horse shod with a flat shoe finds as good footing as on other pavements.

These Australian woods are found to last at least four times as long as the wood heretofore used. The first cost of paving a street with these blocks in Melbourne ranges from $2.16 per square yard for karri to 82.40 for jarrah, which does not include the concrete or the cost of excavation, laying Bfid grouting. If transportation were cheap enough the same pavements could be laid down in this country for not much more money and it is suggested that most of the vessels taking American products to Australia would be glad to get cargoes of karri or jarrah to bring back and would probably be willing to do it at a low rate.

CANNIBALISTIC CONVICTS-

Terrible Treatment of Prisoners on tilt Island of Onora. The Vladivostock, published in the Russian Pacific settlement of th£.t name, gives a terrible account of the treatment of Russian convicts on the island of Onora. The investigation reoently made into the charges of gross and barbarous cruelty preferred against a certain Khanoff, chief labor overseer of the penal island, has resulted in that official's suspension and arrest. This Khanoff, who was himself originally sent out as a deported convict perpetrated such intolerable tortures upon the unfortunate convicts under his charge that twenty mutilated themselves in a dreadful manner iq order to free themselves from the labor yoke of this official miscreant. A much larger number made their escape into the Taiga, where they suffered indesoribable misery from hun* gar and sickness. A recaptured refugee from the Taiga had in hiB possession some pieces of human flesh, and his confession that the escaped prisoners murdered and ate the physically weaker of their companions has, it is stated, be$n confirmed by subsequent discoveries.

This is the sword whioh nsed to be surrendered to the sovereign at Teniple Bar and when she came within the precincts of the corporation. 2. The pearl Bword, from the nature of its ornaments, which is carried before the lord mayor on all occasions of ceremony or festivity. 3. This is a sword placed at the central criminal court above "the lord mayor's chair. 4. A black sword to be used in Lent on days of public fasts and on the death of any of the royal family.

In Madagascar.

The island of Madagascar has two distinct qlimates, two clashes of natives, and two classes of fauna anjl flora. Th£ jgland is about the size 6l France. Along the coast it jg tropical and malarious, and thS nativls Bjg darker and larger than in the interior. The interior is Jjigh ^abld-^nd, and mountainous. ThtfFe the climate is oooler and the natives smaller and lighter in color than on the coast But in the interior they are more intelligent, and they rule the island.

Is Llgbtning Caused by Bain? It is properly supposed that the sudden downnp"iyf..wljigh usually follows a bright flash oF lightning is in Bome way caused by the flash- Meteorologists have proven that this is not the case, and that, exactly to the contrary, it is not only possible but highly probable that the sudden increased precipitation is the real cause of the flash.

Was Great Pay for Central!*. CKNTRALIA, 111., Oct. 7.—Yesterday witnessed the closing of a three days' session of the southern Illinois soldiers and sailors' reunion here. The weather has been beautiful during the reunion and the attendaflce yesterday exceeded 15,000 visitors. To the number were added fully 3,000 citizens at the afternoon session, running the aggregate attendance up to about 18,0C0. The city took extra precautions to prevent gamblers and thieves from plying thei* vocation, and not an instance of the kind was reported to the authorities.

Young: Banker in Trouble. Hn.i.siiOKo, 111., Oct. 7.—A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Albert T. Cullison. a young banker at 'Findlay, east of here, on sensational charges made by a society belle. So far Culiison has given the sheriff the slip, but if the officer can get service upon him he will either be compelled to marry the young lady or become the defendant in a sensational breach of'proy.iae suit.

A Bare Decoration Found ia a Boston •Old Curiosity Shop." In a queer little store, heaped with all sorts of curiosities,, a day or two ago was discovered aanong tho old pewter mugs and time-stained prints a heap of metals from the scattered collection of some enthusiast. There were several bearing the head of her most gracious Britannic majesty, with different inscriptions upon the reverse. Upon one was a sphinx and the words: "Egypt, 1885." Anotlior had been tho reward of somo poor fellow who endured the hardships of the trenches before Sebastapol, when the allies hold the Russsian bear in check during that terrible winter. A Turkish medal, referring to the same campaign was also among the lot. But the most interesting of all—and, of course, most valuable—was a cross of the Legion of Honor of the great Napoleon. These are very rare, although those distributed by the head of the Third empire with sueh a lavish hand are common. But the one in hand, hanging -c :a the worn crimson ribbon, had been presented to some brave or learned man by the great leader himself. The white enamel had been slightly chipped from the ends of the live-pointed cross, but the jewel was remarkably well preserved. The center was of gold and bore the head of the emperor, with a green wreath of oak and laurel surrounding the medallion. On the reverse and corresponding to the latter were the tri-colors crossed, with the words "Honneur et Patrie" encircling them. So rare are these crosaea that it is thought the one now in Boaton is the sole specimen in this country. There are several collectors in this city who prize such treasures, so it will probably remain here in some private cabinet.

A THIRTEEN CLUB.

A Body of Young Men Anxious to Rent a Haunted House. If thirteen young men—lawyers and physicians who have organized a thirteen club in New Haven can find a haunted house to meet in they will be most happy. The organization is nearly complete, the by-laws and rules have been drawn up and adopted, and the only thing lacking is the hauuted house. If this can not be found it is proposed to use tho dead-house owned by the town. Among the rules are almost everything superstitious people avoid. The president is to sit under an umbrella during all meetings and at the quarterly dinners. A ladder will be raised in the room and every member entering will pass under it.

A cross-eyed janitor will be secured, and one of the members whose hair is fiery red will be obliged to enter the meeting room first every time it is opened. A skeleton will be seated opposite the president at every feast, and two black cats will be purchased and kept in the club room. Each member takes a solemn obligation to look at the new moon over his left shoulder, pass on each side of a post when two are walking together, walk between any couples who may be Been walking together on the street, and do everything contrary to the adopted custom The meetings will be held on Friday evenings, and if any member has to make a journey he will start on Fri day or on the 13th of the montfe.

The first savings bank of the United States was the Philadelphia Saving Fund society, organized in 1816 and Btill doing business. The second was established at Boston in the sauie year, tho third in New York in 1819.
