STARTLING.

Wild Flames and Stars Innumerable HU rat (Jut Before the ■ raveler. During Mr. Pickering’s attempts to in Formosa, difficulties growing out of what has been termed the “Camphor War,” his life was several times in danger from the treachery of certain officials with whom he had to deal. On one occasion be dismissed his hearers and walked on alone in order to pass the capital under cover of the night, and so to reach Anplng, where he would find a boat For a long distance the path led through Chinese graveyards. My prosper of getting past Taiwanfoo City undiscovered and In safety was doubtful, he says. I was overwrought by the strain and excitement of the day. Trouble lay behind me, and vexation and danger lay ahead. Feeling at length the need of a rest and smoke, I squatted on my hams, Chinese fashion, beside one of the tombs, and searched In my badger-skin purse for my iron pipe, which I filled and lighted with my flint and steel. My uncanny surroundings and the stillness of the night led my thoughts back to my boyhood terrors of such places, and my early belief in ghosts. I was just saying to myself that I had outgrown these boyish superstitions when suddenly a wild flame bnrst before me. I saw stars innumerable, my pipe was whirled from my mouth, and I fell sprawling on my back, utterly helpless from fear, my limbs trembling and my heart beating violently. I was powerless to stand, so scared and shaken was I; so, sitting on a grave, I waited until I grew calmer, when my reason reasserted itself. I grasped my purse and examined It carefully. It contained several divisions. In the lower one was loose tobacco, with my flint and steel, and in one of the upper pockets was a quantity of small metallic cartridges for use in my revolver. I eagerly searched among the tobacco, and to my relief I found one or two of the tiny cartridges, which had fallen through a hole in the upper division. The whole affair was thus made clear. I had unwittingly stuffed, with the tobacco, a cartridge into my pipe, and had smoked on until it became red-hot; then it had exploded, producing the mysterious shock which had given me such a fright.—Youth’s Companion.

Brain Work and Exercise.

Three hours of brain work will! destroy more tissue than a day of physical exercise. Many men and women earn their living by their brains. Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters makes the mind active and vigorous. This medicine is an appetizer and a cure for dyspepsia. A private stamp covers the neck of the bottle.

Equally Great.

Two chance acquaintances on a railway train discovered that they had come originally from the same neighborhood, and fell to conversing about old times. “By tjie way,” said the passenger in the skull-cap, “whatever became of Harrison McPelt?” “He’s a special writer for one of the New York papers,” replied the passenger in the long linen duster, “at ten dollars a column. Has a good thing of it.” “And his brother Alfred?” “Alfred is a fat man in a dime museum. Weighs four hundred and eighty-seven pounds. Gets a good salary.” “Well, well!” mused the other. “Both of them, then, have achieved success in life as space-fillers.”

In securing this appointment she had the endorsement of Federal judges and other men of national reputation, besides the support of her husband, Hon. William Allen Cullop, one of the leading attorneys of Southern Indiana.

CRUSADE AGAINST LYNCHINGS.

Mia* Lillian Jewett, of Boston, a New Harriet Beecher Stowe. Miss Lillian Clayton Jewett of Boston, who has taken up the crusade against the lynching of Southern negroes and has won the love of the colored race for her service, is a very good looking woman. She promises to be a very effective one as well. She Is 24 years old, a little taller than the average, and a great deal more pleasing and impressive as a public speaked. In her home city she is referred to as a new Harriet Beecher Stowe. When she stood up in the mass meeting of colored people at St. Paul’s

MISS JEWETT.

Baptist Church and offered to bring from Charleston, S. C., the family of murdered Postmaster Baker she created a sentiment which’ will not soon subside. Sbe believed that the bringing of Mra. Baker and her orphaned children wonld arouse the North to take such action as will compel a cessation of lynchings In the South. It Is a part of Miss Jewett’s plan to take the widow and orphans with her, to have them In lecture rooms where addresses are made In the crusade against Judge Lynch. “When God has some great work to perform,” said Rev. Mr. Ferris in introducing her, "He has always touched the heart of a woman and the work has been done.” And Miss Jewett herself, in her address, declared: “The black man in this country is free, but he Is more destitute than he was thirty years ago. The country freed him, but did nothing else for him.”

A Testimonial.

Spelling is not the only difficulty to be encountered by the beginner on a typewriter. Any one who is learning to use the machine will appreciate the following, from Pearson’s Weekly: “How do you like your new typewriter?” inquired the agent. “It’s grand,” was the immediate reply. “I wonder how I ever got along without it.” “Well, would you mind giving me a little testimonial to that effect?” “Certainly not Do it gladly.” So he rolled up his sleeves, and in an incredibly short time pounded out this: “After Using the amtomatig Backaction a type writ er for thre emonthan d Over. I unhessttattlngly pronounce It prono ce it to be al even more than th e Manufacture Claim? for It During the time been in our possession e. L th ree monthzi id has more than paid for itself In the saving of time an dlabor. ‘ John $ Gibbs.” "There you are, sir.” "Thanks,”'said the agent and moved quickly away.

The Queen’s Double.

The Queen’s double Is an elderly woman who acts as pew-opener at a church in North London, and so exact Is the resemblance that it makes all new members of the congregation exclaim. Strangely sbe is the exact age of the Qneen, and became a widow in the same year that the Prince Contort died.

Workwomen in Cuba.

Bitting work for women is scarce in Cuba. Cooking and washing are monopolised by mot. American employment of women in the Havana postoffice has been received with disapproval by the male Cabans. A story on a married man Isn’t really intwffting nnUw jjjg wife caught him

Severe Test of Friendship.

That there may be such a thing as carrying insurance too far Is indicated by the case of Mr. Mulcahy and Mr. Mulhooly, two Irish gentlemen. Though they were known to be great friends, they were one day observed .to pass each other In the street without a greeting. “Why, Mnlcahy,” a friend asked, in astonishment, “have yon and Mulhooly quarreled?” “That we have not!” said Mr. Mulcahy with earnestness. “There seemed to be a coolness between yon when you passed just now.” “That’s the insurance of our friendship.” “I don’t understand.” “Whoy, thin, it’s this way. Mulfiooly and I are that devoted to wan {another that we can’t bear the idea of ja quarrel, an’ as we are both molghty quick-tempered, we’ve resolved not to shpake to wan another at all!”

Seven Hundred Years of Coal.

According to the most authentic history of the coal trade, last year marked the seven hundredth anniversary of the use of coal as fuel. Taking the most moderate estimate of the antiquity of man. and considering the fact that the coal was always here, it apipe&re that we were' a long time in availing ourselves of this most valuable asset which nature placed at our disposal. Many civilizations flourished and died out without its use, and It may be said that its potentialities, as a factor in the progress of mankind, were never realized fully until the present century. Up to Its dawn, aside from the warming of the body and the cocking of food, little importance was attached to the fuel question. For these purposes a few fagots or billets of wood sufficed. But In time we discovered that In the fire there was a giant a thousand times more powerful than the fabled monsters of antiquity.

R Helping 1 Hand To all Suffering Women. 1H In addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are confiding your private ills to a woman —a woman whose experience in treating woman’s diseases is greater than that of any living person —male or female.
