WAS SOLD INTO SLAVERY. A White Girl Placed in a Harem in Egypt. Twenty-one years ago Miss Anna Hughes, the 6-year-old child of Rev. and Mrs. A. C. Hughes, of Trenton,Mo., went across the water to a point in Egypt as Missionaries. There they lived in quiet for a year and taught the people the word of God, but one day their little village was assaulted by a band of thieving Arabs and every one was killed or captured. The old gentleman and his wife being among the killed, while the child, then 8 years old, and very beautiful, was carried away and sold to slavery, her beauty saved her from the drudgery of most slaves and she was placed in the harem of Abirs Pasha, the Khedive of Cairo, and remained there until she was 16 years old when she was made its queen, and given the name of Zuleka, Queen of the slaves. She remained as such for two years, when one day the American warship Brooklyn cast anchor in the harbor and among those to gain shore leave was one Ensign Carter, who met Zuleka and loved her at first sight, finding she was an American and a slave, he made up his mind to buy her, but that being impossible, he. with the aid of a trusted slave of the Khedive, stole her and took her away into the sandhills of the desert. There they were followed by the foreman of the estates of th Khedive and a corporals guard from the warship and arrested and placed in chains, when Carter by his previous record for bravery, was given his liberty, and married the girl and brought her back to America, where she found her long lost relatives. and has been happy ever since. Now this may sound melodramatic; well, it is. Miss Anna Hughes, the leading lady with the Maud Hender-

son attractions will be seen some night next week as Zuleka, and E. N. Primrose as Ensign Carter, in the great sensational Egyptian melodrama “Slaves of the Orient.” On Mondaynight “A Gambler’s Wife,” a beautiful story of the South, in four acts, with Miss Hughes in the title role, with all special scenery and effects. Specialties will be introduced between acts, and any lady will be admitted free if accompanied by one 30c ticket, if seats are reserved before Monday. Popular prices, 10c, 20c, 30c. ■ o 'IF WATER NEVER FROZE. Th. • Would Be Several Startling Changes In the World. The whole economy of nature would undergo a startling change if water never froze. The world's climates would be revolutionized. The icebound polar seas would cease to exercise their chilling influences, and consequently the currents of tbe ocean might either cease or be turned aside In different directions. Thus the gulf stream would seek other shores than those of Britain, and the climate there might be subject to tbe extremes of heat and cold noticeable in other countries of the same latitude. The icebound rivers of the north, notably those of Russia and Siberia, would be open for navigation, and Russia’s activity as a sea power and a commercial nation might alter the whole world of commerce. Canada would become another country altogether. An immense tract of land would be available for cultivating hardy plants, and Greenland might be what its name indicates. Tbe absence of Icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland and Iceland would result In a much warmer climate in those islands, where now the crops often fail. Ice, too, plays an Important part In the economy of nature. Thus. If water never froze, snow, hail and hoarfrost would cease. The loosening of soils and the disintegration of rocks by tbe frost and many other now vital effects would be lost—ln short, the absence of Ice would be on the one hand an incalculable disaster, on the other hand a great boon.—London Globe. THE BOARDING HOUSE. Advantages of Its Pacific Influence In Married Life. “Oh, dear, but this boarding house life is simply awful!” said the sweet young thing as she alpped her hot chocolate at a Chestnut street soda counter In company with an elderly fair companion. “I really don’t see how you stand it,” she continued in tbe same plaintive voice. “I am aure I shouldn’t if I were happily married, as you are. I would have a bouse of my own, a cozy little place where there would be just myself and busband, serene and happy in our knowledge of each other’s love.” The older woman's eyes twinkled, albeit there was a somewhat grim look about the corners of her mouth, as she made reply: “My dear, you are very young and have lots to learn. Some unmarried philosophers on married life tell us that the boarding house is a feeder for the divorce courts and that it breeds discord for married people. Don’t you believe them. When you have been married to a mere man as long as I hare, you will find that tbe knowledge that your next room neighbor can hear if your voice is raised in anger and will tell your fellow boarders if yon are beard to quarrel will have a valuable deterrent effect on not only yoareetf, but your lord and master as well, and many a cross word will be stilled tn birth rather than have your disagreement* pdMlshed to the household.

If any one has any doubt as to the virtue of Foley’s Kidney Cure, they need only to refer to Mr. Alvin H. Stimpson, of Willimantic, Conn., who, after almost losing hope of recovery, on account of the failure of so many remedies, finally tried Foley’s Kidney Cure, which he says was “just the thing” for him, as four bottles cured him completely.
