Facts for the Traveling Public,

Emigrants, commercial men, tourists, mariners and miners relating to the preservation of health under conditions unfavorable to It. may be gleaned with profit from the oft published testimony of such persons relating to the protective and remedial qualities of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a very valuable remedy to those who traverse “the briny deep," or are subjected to malarial influences or out door exposure. With as much certainty as Dr. Koch’s celebrated lymph destroys the organic microbe, the Bitters counteracts unhealthful germs in malaria-tainted air and brackish water. It pievents and removes disorders oaused by poor and unaccustomed food, and restores tranquillity to worn out nerves and weary brains. Rheumatism, kidney and liver complaint, cramps, colic and dyspepsia are among the ailments that it subdues.

Passing of Ephratah’s Sisterhood.

The death of Sarah Bowman at Ephratah, Pa., almost ends the existence of a peculiar sisterhood. It was organized at Ephratah 150 years ago on a communal theory, and was for a long time a flourishing institution. The sisters gradually strayed into the outer world, however. Some married, some died, until Sister Bowman, in her old age, found herself the eldest member, with only two companions.— New York Sun.

SOME FAIR STORIES.

HAUNTED WITH THE MEMORY OF THE CENTENNIAL. Wisdom In the Art Gallery—“ The Faries’ Wheel”— The Gondolas and Lagoons— Many Are the Amusing Incidents In the White City. At the ,Big Show. World’s Fair correspondence: Down on the lake front during the fireworks in the evening an oldish man, with a deep fringing rim of gray whiskers under his chin and up to his ears, gave me a chance to sit down on the end of the beucli where he was watching the disjllety,' “Every inch of room counts here. Set right down,” said he. “I found' Her a place back up yonder. I was glad She got a chance to set down. ” Having thus established his trustworthy status as the head of a household the good old fellow proceeded to “visit” with me, needing very few questions to unfold his history and interests while the rockets were being prepared. “We came yesterday,” he said, “so this is only our second day. She asked me did I think it came up to the Centennial. You see I went to Philadelphia in ’76 and saw it through; stayed a week. Well, I said the Centennial was the best. Well, of course, that needs some explanation. But I maintain,” and his fist came out heroically in a gesture, “I maintain that for artisticnessof taste, for magnificence of beauty, and for the wonderfulness of the thing to a certain extent, the Centennial Exposition at Philadelphia in 1876 went ahead of this. You see it was this wav. Of course the main building wa’n’t as big as this, but it ’peared better. They was twenty-three acres in that, and they's thirty-two in this, nine acres more. But when you come into that one, there you’d see letters of living light, shining right up there before you, and when you’d come up to 'em they'd be made of pistols. Yes, letters made of pistols, and looking like jewels. You don’t see that in this main

building, And when I think over things like that, I say the Centennial was the best. She says I just got the Centennial so fixed in my mind I can't seem to consider this.” “How about the buildings here?” “Well, as for buildings and right down up and down beauty to look at them, why, of course, these buildings go right off and leave Philadelphia sticking there. ” The gratuitous information people give each other in the White. City is exhaustless. For instance: “Who is this picture by?” asked one woman of another in the Art Gallery, and the answer came promptly, “By Gerome. He is an author, too. He wrote that book called ‘ Three Men in a Boat,’ to say nothing of the dog.” Two Great Men. Two men stood the other morning before the Bartholdi figures near the lagoon entrance of the Art Gallery. Their eyes were glistening with admiration, and one of them spoke to the other thus: “I should know it for Washington, though the comb-back of his hair ain’t real natural; the other is Dee Layfatte two great men together, greatest men ever lived in this country." His voice took on a splendid tone Of conception of historical relation, and he repeated: “Yes, sir, they were the greatest men ever lived in this country. Talk about Cleveland ! Talk about Harrison!” The lagoons still give Fair visitors a deal of trouble. At the illumination one evening iust after some sort of water procession had passed, a number of electric launches swung into line in the grand basin from the direction of the north lagoons. And a woman who had Deen trying to define the features of the float to her companions welcomed the appearance of the familiar launches

BRAVO. CHICAGO!

with a sigh of relief and the words, “Well, now here come the lagoons.” It was another well-meaning woman who advised a friend not to leave tho Fair without taking a gondola ride “on the galloons. ” “The Fairies’ wheel” is the astonishing name given to tho big swing by a young person who must have thought it named by the law of contraries, for how could Titania and her train claim the Ferris for the fairies’ wheel? The environments of the Fair have their irresistible attractions for everybody, and nobody comes from' a distance to Chicago without home Very definite intention concerning other sights besides those in Jackson Park. Here is a striking example. At the door of a famous preadher’s,church, on a recent Sunday, a great erdwd was struggling in vain for admittance, and numbers were being turned away. One man refused to go. “I’vo got to get in here,” he protested. “Plenty of others feel the same way, ” sajd a gopd-patured bystander. “Yes, but I’ve got to get in," said the man of determination, with the ring in his voice of a great and irresistible longing that must be appeased at any cost. ‘T’ve got to get in. I made up my rriind when I came to Chicago that after I had teen the Fair I couldn’t and wouldri’t leaVe town without seeing three othdr sights, Buffalo William, ‘America,’ and Dr. Gunsaulus.” He got in. Importune • of th > ] air. But, turning aside from the amusing features of the Fair, there is, as Harper’s Weekly says, one melancholy thought irrepressibly stealing over the beholder of all this magnificence—that it will be among us in its bodily existence only so short a time. Like a gorgeous dream of human genius it has arisen, and liko a vision it will pass away. It will live, however, as a glorious memory and long be spoken of by this and coming generations as one of the greatest marvels of the closing nineteeth century. Everyone who has seen it will cl ori.-h the remembrance of what h<3 saw as a precious treasure which no one wiil be willing to part with for any pr.ee, while those who now miss this great opportunity wi 1 never cease to doplore the irreparable loss caused by their

gross neglect when they hear others tell the wonderful story. Even people of small mcaus should not rec it from the expense of a journey, which in these hard limes they may consider an extravagance, anl they snould not fail to bestow upon their children the boon of the enligh’ening and ennobling impressions which this grand spectacle conveys, and which in all likelihood will be the only opportunity in their lives tp receive and enjoy.

BAD BLAZE AT OMAHA.

Destruction of the Farnham Street Theater Building. The Farnham Street Theater Building, the second-best opera-house in Omaha, was totally destroyed the other evening by fire, which broke out in the rear of the fifth floor a few minutes after 5 o'clock. Four persons are reported to have been killed by falling walls. The fire department responded promptly, and a general alarm was turned in, but the lire seemed to have gained complete control. In a short time the walls of the theater building began to totter and crumble, and bricks were flying in all directions. The roof fell in while several firemen were upon the second floor, and they just succeeded in escaping by running down the side stairway. J. M. Gaynor. athlete and dancing master, was struck in the back by falling bricks and badly hurt. In the crowd many people were knocked down and trampled on. The building was erected in 1882 by James E. Boyd, who has since been Governor. It'was then and afterward knowd as Boyd’s Opera House and was one of the best -auditoriums in the West. A few years ago it was sold to the American Bank Building Company, which is owned by the Ameri-

can Loan and Trust Company, and was entirely refitted. It hud cost originally $125,000 and is now insured for $90,000 in about twent.v-ttve companies. “The Waifs of New York” company was playing in tho theater and had iust concluded a rehearsal. The entire loss on stock and building willexcoed $200,000, of which perhaps $155,000 is secured by insurance. The origin of the fire is a mystery. It is rumored that it came from a cigarette left burning in the sawdust.

LIVES BLOWN OUT.

Terrible Tornado Ravages New Orleans and the Vicinity. A terrific tornado struck Now Orleans the other night from the northeast, sweeping to the south along the line ot the Mississippi River through the parish of Plaquemines to the Gulf. The storm was one of the worst that ever visited that part of the country As far as can bo learned it killed not less than twenty-four persons and wounded probably three times as many, some of them fatally, besides destroying a large amount of property at New Orleans. The wind reached a velocity of sixty miles an hour. Tho revetment levee on Lako Pontchartrain, which protocts Now Orleans from overflow on tho roar, was washed away and the water swept over it fifteen feet or more. Many of the yachts there were sunk or injured. In the Mississippi tho coal fleet was scattered, the transfer boat of the Texas and Pacific Railroad badly damaged and several wharves carried away. The New Orleans and Northeastern had its track flooded for seven miles and so badly washed that it can run no trains. The track of the Louisville and Nashville was almost wholly washed out for fifteen miles. Throe persons were killed and one wounded severely, if not fatally, by the storm in the city of JNeV Orleans itEelf. Below the city it was far worse, especially in Plaquemines Parish. Here the wind reached a velocity of between 100 and 125 miles an hour and carried everything before it. Tho parish teat of justice, Pointe a la Hache, a town of 2,000 people, was the worst sufferor. In that town not a single house escaped injury. The Court House and Roman Catholic Church, the principal buildings in the town, and some twenty other buildings wore destroyed. Four grown persons are known to be killed in Pointe a la Hache and several children,, how many is not evactly known. In the immediate vicinity of Pointe a la Hache other deaths are reported and thirteen more in the country below. Gov. Warmoth said that this storm was the worst experienced’in Louisiana since 1811. The hurricane of 1888 was not half so violent and detractive. Mobile Has a Cyclone. At Mobile, Ala., the wind blew tho water in from the Gulf until the river reached Royal street, which is four blocks from' the river and at an eleva-' tion of about fifteen feet from the main river height. There is no possible chance of estimating tho pecuniary damage. All the wholesale and a portion of the retail district of the city was some four feet under water, and thousands of dollars’ worth of goods have been damaged. It is conceded by all to be the worst storm that has ever visited Mobile. The towers on the court-house and Christ church may fall.

AH the offers were declined and 74i cents per ounce tendered. The Standard Oil Company’s refinery at Louisville, Ky., burned, with a loss of $40,900.

A Matter of Health

Housekeepers faintly realize the danger of an indiscriminate- use of the numerous baking powders nowadays found upon every hand, and which are urged upon consumers with suoh persistency by peddlers and many grocers on account of the big profits made in their sale. Most of those powders are made from sharp and caustic acids and alkalies which burn and inflame the alimentary organs and cause indigestion, heartburn, diarrhival diseases, etc. Sulphuric acid, caustic potash, burnt alum, all are used as gas-producing agents in such baking powders. Most housekeepers are aware of the painful effects produced when these chemicals aro applied to the external flesh. How much more acute must be- thoir cotion upon the delicate internal membranes' Yet unscrupulous manufacturers do not hositare to use them, because they make a very low-cost powder, nor to urge the use of thoir powders so made, by all kinds of alluring advertisements and false representations. All the lowpriced or so-called cheap baking powders, and all powders sold with a gift or prize, belong to this class. Baking powders made from chemically pure cream of tartar and bi-car-bonate of soda are among the most useful of modern culinary devices. They not only make tho preparation of finor and more delicious cookery possible, but they have addod to tho digestibility and wholesomeness of our ford. But baking powders must bo composed of such puro and wholesome ingredients or theymust bo tabooed entirely. Dr. Edsan, Commissioner of Hoalth of New York, in an article in the “Doctor of Hygiene,” indicates that the advantages of a good baking powder and the exemption from the dangers of bad ones in which tho harsh and caustic chemicals are used, are to bo secured by the use of Royal Baking Powder exclusively, and he recommends this to all consumers. “The Royal," he says, “contains nothing but cream of tartar and s>da refined to a chemical purity, which when combined under the influence of heat and moisture produce pure carbonic, or leavening, gas. The two materials used, croam of tartar and soda, are perfectly harmless even when eaten, but in this preparation they are combined in exact compensating weights, so that when ohemical action begins between them in the dough they practically disappear, the substance ofboth having been taken to form carbonlo acid gus.” Hence it is, he says, that the Royal Baking Powdor is the most perfect of all conceivable agents for leavening purposes. It seems almost incredible that any manufacturer or dealer should urge tho sale of baking powders containing injurious chemicals in place of those of a well-known, pure, ana wholesome character, simply for the sake of a few cents a pound greater profit; but since they'do, a few words of warning seem to be necessary.

Cure for Warts.

Moehan's Monthly: In almost all country gardens in Pennsylvania thero are patches of the milkweed, known to botany as euphorbia eyporissias. It has no particular beauty, and it has been a subject of some interest why it was so universally planted. One friend who inquired was made to beliovo thut it was generally used in the olden time, when people used the herbs of tho garden for modicino instead of calling in the family physician for every trilling thing. This plant was used to cure warts. It is said that the milk from the broken stem placed on the surface of the wart will cause it to disappear within a week or two, witjiopt pain or suffering. The plant is curious, although not showy, and in the olden times curious flowers were planted in gardens as well as those which had an interest solely from their gay color. It may be that the plant had «in interest in this line, although not particularly showy.

The earth will be represented by a pea on the circumference of a circle 284 feet across, and Venus by another pea, on the outside of a 430-foot circle. Mars will be adequately represented by a pin-head at 054 feet, and the Asterlods by grains of sund 1,000 to 2,000 feet away. An orange at the distance of half a mile will stand for Jupiter, a very small apple at four-fifths of a mile will answer for Saturn, and a cherry on the circumference of a circle a mile and a half across will represent Uranus,

Origin of the Word “Yankees.”

The word Yankees, by which the natives of Now England are designated, had its origin in a mispronunciation, Yengees being the neaiest the Indian tongue could come to enunciating the word English.

At the beginning of this year (says the Revue Scientifiqae) there were 1,168 submarine cables in existence, of which 880 belonged to different dominions, and 288 to private oompanies.

HE IS A KING, BUT STILL A BOY.

He Wanted Fan and lie. Slipped Out of the Palace and Oot It. Not long ago there was terrible excitement at the royal court of Anam> The King, Thanh-Tai, who is now 14 years old, was missing. Etiquette requires that the Anumose King shall never leave the royal grounds. He Is a kingly prisoner. Ana that the King should not only be absent from the palace, but that no one should know where he was, constituted an event of such direful consequence that the whole court, was in dismay. But tho -young potentate was not hard to find. Though be was a king, he was a boy; and it is natural for a boy, when ho has some money in his pocket, to want 1 1 go out and spend it. That was exactly what the King of Anam had done. Entirely alcne, ho had started on a “shopping" expedition through the streets of Hue. Of course, no one knew him because he had nover shown his faie in public. Ho was simply a boy, like any other boy, and this was exactly what ho want >d. But he was treated with groat respect by tho shopkeepers because ho seemed to have plenty of money. Curiously enough, tho thing that soemed to attract, him most was a head-shearing maehino, or hair-clipper, and when the frightened nobles of tho court discovered him at last it was with this singular implement in his possession. No doubt ho intended to amuse himsolf by shearing the heads of all his dependents.

A ltace Between Geese and Turkeys. George IV., whon Prince Regent, was much given to wagers; but oftentimes he was boaton at his own gamo. Once a gentleman who had frequently lost wagers with his Royal Highnoss determined to be revenged, and among other subjects introduced one evening, ho casually observed that he mot a drdvo of turkeys, and noticing how slow they traveled, said that he believed geese would travel fastor. “Nonsenso,” said his Royal Highness. “Well,” said the gentleman, "I boliovo they will; and I am willing to wager that I drive a flock of goeso one mile along tho turnplko road against any one you may soloet to drive a number of turkeys, only allowing mo to namo time and place." “Done, for a thousand pounds,” was the reply; and tho next day was fixed for tho trial to come off. They met at a certain spot; tho Prince Rogent was thero incog., but hud a trusty friend with a flock of turkeys. Presently the gentleman appeared with his geese; but as he had the time to namo, lie fixed a quarter of an bquh before sundown. The tima arrived, and away went tho turkeys, outstripping tho geese a hundred yards in a few minutes; but gradually, as tho sun wontdown. tho turkeys desired to roost, and rushed through tho hodgos, first this side and then tho other, until they finally found some trees, in which they sought refuge, and all the efforts of tho driver to get them on the road again were of no avail. All this time the geese kept going quietly along, and, like tho tortoise with tho hare in tho fable, arrived at tho goal while tho turkeys were sleeping.

DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS., Has discovered In one of our common weeds a remedy that cures every klqd of Humor, from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple. He has tried It In over eleven hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases (both thunder humor). He nas now In his possession over two hundred certificates of its value, all within twenty miles of Boston. A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the right quantity is taken. When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing through them; the same with the Liver or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being stopped, and always disappears in a week after taking It. If the stomach Is foul or bilious It wIU cause squeamish feelings at first. No change of diet ever necessary. Eat the best you can get, and enough of It Dose, one tablespoonful In water at bedRead the Label. Send for Book.
