•A CASTLE GARDEN WIFE.

SOME SPECIMENS OF THOSE WHO HAVE APPLIED FOR HER.

A Second Band Man Who Wauted a New Wife and Two Dollars for One—An Applicant Who Let Hi* Money Do His Talking—Happy Marriage* and Some Misfits.

The Rockland county farmer who recently applied to Superintendent Simpson at Castle Garden for a wife was a very fair specimen of hundreds of others who make similar application* in the course of a year. Hie fact that he wanted to marry some woman who was comfortably situated financially makes bis case an ordinary one. In other respect? he was more than usually particular.

The applicant had no right to expect au thing out of the ordinary run of women, for he was, if anything, less prepossessing than the ordinary run of mankind. He said he was 45 years of age, but he looked ten years older at least. He was cut on the angular plan, and everything about him, including clothes, manner, accent and expression, was distinctly rural. He wanted a young woman, •tout and strong enough to do bard work, and skilled enough in housekeeping to cook first rate. She must hare black hair and eyes, a pleasant manner, and, more important than all, not less than $2,000 in cold cash. The applicant modestly confessed to having no objection to marrying a woman who bad mora money, but a woman with less—never!

He said he had been a widower seven years, and that his farm was worth $1,000. Ho did not see anything unreasonable in a second hand man like himself, who was worth only $1,000, distinctly refusing to marry any woman who was not brand new and who was worth less than twice his value.

WANTED A KILKENNY OIBL.

There should be no difficulty in pleasing any foreigner, for tho* Garden is frequently filled to overflowing with women representing all nationalities. Many of the women who come from the steerage of a big steamship into tho had smelling, stuffy rotunda tho Garden are pretty, but they aro seldom attractive. Along journey in tho steerage of a steamship would would mar tho attractions of the prettiest women, and then thoy frequently appear awiwarcL Tbe strangeness of tho place, the way thoy are bustled nbout by tho busy officials, and tho fact of being in a strange city thousands of miles front their homes, frightens them. Some of tho men who call here for wives aro worthy of good ones, anil these ulways receive tho ready help of the officials. A few weeks ago a little old fashioned Irishman with tho richest kind of a brogue called on Superintendent Simpson and said: "1 want a wife." "Is she here?" ho was asked. "Faith if she was wouldn't I take her awayf' ho said. "1 want to find one to marry can ye help incf "Who would marry little old man liko you?" ns! ed Mr. Simpson. "Plenty of them," replied the littlo man confidently, "if they aaw this."

Ho pulled out of his pocket bank book whii-li showed deposits amounting to $6,000. "That'll catch any of them," ho said, "and all 1 want you to do is to pick out a nice pleasant mannered girl, not more than 30 years old, and from Kilkenny if you can." "How old areyouf "Niver moind that it's this'll talk whin ye foind her."

Tho littlo man slapped his bank book and laughed. Ho said ho was a boss carman who had boon too busy all his lifo to find a wifo for himself. Ho wantod somebody else to do it for him, and when tho aolection was made ho promised to como around and marry her *1 'offhand.

APPLICATIONS BY MAIL.

The mm employed In tho Garden realize what a delicate thing it is to find a wifo for a man. In tho languago of one of them, such an arrangement is apt to to a misfit. A man who can't find a wife for himself is always worthy of suspicion, and is seldom entitled to one.

A man with a stiff black I ward, doep set black eyes, and an nppeorance indicating a marked antipathy to soap and water, railed at the Ganion in tho early part of last fall. He liad a strong Italian accent. Ho wanted an Italian girl not more than 17 yeai-s old. He preform! one without friends and without knowledge of any language but her own. What did ho want her for For wifo, of course. Ho was asked what his business wns. Tho question angered him. He thought that was nobody's business but his own. Ho was eoclly dismissed, and ho went away in a great passion. Nobody doubted but what ho wantod a girl for some evil or degrading work.

When a man applies to tho officials at tho Garden for a wifo his character and his means for supporting her are carefully inquired into. If bo proves to bo a fit person ho gets all tho help possible, and there have lcon many happy marriages brought about in this way.

Sometimes a man from some thinly settled western part of tho country applies for a wife by lotter. Usually these written applications havo a charming frankness about them. Nearly all tho writers aro farmers or small tradesmen, who want a wifo with money enough to holp them improve their business. In addition to this they want her to be both stroug and young, so sho can work, and holp them in this way. A few of them aro very fastidious and devote pages to describing just the kind of a woman they want. The most particular of them entirely forgot to describe themselves, and this gives rise to a suspicion that their appearanco wont stand it Once in a while a mau sends his portrait. This is honest, but it is disastrous, and one glance at tho pkturo is a sufficient explanation why the man has difficulty in finding somebody to marry him.—New York Sun.

Poison Fangs.

If a drop of oil from a foul pipe be placed in the mouth of a snake tho action is almost instantaneous. Tbe muscles become set in knotted lumps and the creature tieeomes rigid. If much is given tho make dies, but if a small amount only is placed in the mouth tho snake may be restored. This, as Mr. Oakley has suggested, may explain tbe stories of Indian snake charmers being able to turn a snake into a stick. This feat is performed by spitting into the snaked mouth and then placing tho hand on its head until the reptile Incomes stiffened. The effect may be produced by opium or some other narcotic introduced with the saliva. They then rub tbe make between their hands, restoring it again to its usual animation.

The si': of se sets neither in the tail nor the league. _5 death dealing organs aro the great poison fauga The fatal wound is a bite and not a sting. And among all the epodal modifications at snake structure none is more remarkable than tho development of tbo poison fang. In the haraksai snakes there is a tongish booeon side of the uppor jaw, which may bear with a doseu teeth or more. But in the ripen this bone Is shortened to a we*~\ hr only one gfcent fang, thoot it. may" be two or three rwwto fangs, one of which wUi

Cultivation or Nutmeg*.

Paddling into a little cove, says Capt. John Stratum, on the sooth side of tbe bey, we lanrfod beside a clear rippling stream, and, having ordered the whole of the men to march in file in front, we started by a little rugged path into the mountains, with my interpreter immediately behind me and tbe rajah just in front. Every foot of the journey, which was laborious in the extreme, disclosed fresh scenes of verdure and tropical splendor. Winding along tbe sides of deep ravines, sometimes dragging ourselves op the creepers and undergrowth, we ultimately attained an altitude of about 1,000 feet above the sea, and then entered the nutmeg country. Here we baited and rested. Tbe rajah pulled some of the nutmegs and explained how far they were from being ripe.

Having rested sufficiently we again started forward, after scrambling along for about an hour we gained a fine piece of table land, over which we traveled for about another half an hour, when we reached three hotfces erected in tbe very heart of the forest. These were used by tbe natives for drying the nutmegs. The country was everywhere magnificent, the aroma of the spice laden air delicious. Nutmeg and other equally valuable trees were everywhere growing in great profusion. The fruit of the nutmeg in appearance resembles a pear, and when ripe opens and displays the nut covered with a beautiful red coating of mace. The nuts are then picked from the trees, put into baskets and taken to the houses, where they are husked and placed on shelves. They are then pnrtinlly roasted over a slow fire until all the moisture is extracted. After this they are coolcd and carried down to the village in nets ready to be bartered to tho Bugis, Arabs, and other traders who frequent the gulf in their small prows or junkos at the proper season.—Glasgow Mail

Servant Stealing.

Indies who aro really gentle of heart ahd mauners should observe certain points of honor among themselves. A gentlewoman will not allow a servant, however faithful, to gossip to her of other homes in which she may have lived. Sho will know instinctively .that it is her duty to teach tho nurso girl, the cook, the house maid, that gossip is as bad in tho kitchen as in tho parlor. A gentlewoman will not take away the servants of other ladies. This sort of bribery and stealing is common, and many mistresses do not seem to see any dishonor in it. It is not honorable to take away a cook from a good home on the promise of giving her a dollar extra. Recently a well known lady waited anxiously for her nurso to apjiear in the morning. Tho girl had left tho premises for good, and when search was made for her and sho was found, admitted that Sirs. A had promised to tjive her anew dress if sho would leave her employer and tnlto service elsewhere. Servant stealing is not so bad as child stealing, but it i3 bad enough for women to be ashamed to be engaged in it.—Now Orleans Picayune.

Tlio Amphibious Ladies of Seattle. Col. John T. Crisp said on ono of tho recent wet days: "You aro very desirous of understanding tho temperature of ,Puget Sound. This is a typical winter day of Puget Sound. It is just as wot as it can be, and yet it does not seem to rain. That which mokes mud anil bad traveling is hardly to bo seen, so straight and gentle does it, the rain, come lown. And yet it comes. At one time I saw at least one thousand ladies on tho street with their gossamer coverings, swimming along, so to speak, liko so many swans upon a lake, or so many fairy 'Chinook salmon' llsh—the aristocratic fish of Puget Soundail thero, all perfect, all happy, all sound, all provokingly swoet, all luscious, all game, all like so many full sails, courting and long waiting for tho outgoing tide all wet as the swan, whoso perfect coat of down makes thom impervious to water all tipping their umbrellas so high with the passing gallants I hnt they seemed to say: 'Wo co rry this only in obedience to the requirements of the sup posed street regulations. But we are birds of water—puro water from tho heavens—and do not need them.' "—Kansas City Times.

A Swell.

A small boy was calling the other day on ono of his school friends and fell into conversation with tho mother of the latter. He was led to remark that i'j was getting very hard to tell from tho places in which people livo whotlier they are entitled to social consideration or not. Of course this is not the way in which ho put it, but this is what it came to. "Now, thero is Blank street," he said, "you wouldn't think anybody that lives on Blank street was much, would you I But there's Mr. T.,

ho lives there." "And ts Mr. T. much?" she asked, not unwilling to draw him out. "Mr. T.f" bo repeated, with the air of one who ia overwhelmed with astonishment that so obvious a fact should have escaped the laiowlodge of anybody. "I should think he woo! Ho-a an awful swell! Why, ho won't ?peak to my father."

Tho glimpse which a bit of naivete like this gives into tho homo life of tho speaker is more instructive than pages of elaborate description.—Boston Courier.

At tho Charity Entertainment. Havo you ever carefully inspected tho audiuncs in attendance at tbe average charity concert! It is usually a sort of a poor relation audience. Tickets aro sold to wealthy people, who tako them because the object is a worthy one, in their opinion, but they do not caro to attend tho entertainment themselves, so thoy shower their tickets among their poor rotations, who arc only too glad of a chance to go to some sort of a show. I| there are uo poor relations to tie favored the tickets are given to the postman, the milkman, tho rueer or tho butcher, and, as a consequence, the audience which assembles is composed partially of tbo lower middle class and of tbe mau whose greatest pride is to mention the name of some well known millionaire as his wife's cousin. But all tho same the? -rving charity gets tho money, and the ui dsts who volunteer doubtless appear before a moro appreciate ve audience. —ChieagoHerald.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

gtampe. Bank Notes and Cotes as Carriers of Disease Germ "Danger in the postage stamp" is one of the latest warnings. According to Sanitary News, a postage stamp may in various way* transmit disease. One of the simplest awl most plausible is that in which a postage stamp, partly attached to a letter to pay return postage, is sent by a person infected with some disease.

Tbe disease is transferred, in the first place, to tbe adhesive stamp through the saliva, and in being attached to the letter by the receiver the poison may be transmitted to in turn through the saliva. Another cause may be tho infection of the stamp with disease germs. The stamp, having been exposed in a room trbere a diseased person lies, may become slightly moistened, and thus retain the germ. That this is true con be proved very simply by a microscopical examination. We often see a person holding change for a moment in the mouth, probable eot knowing that investigation has shown that disease germs can be carried by money. If any one could see through what bands the money has passed, he would hesitate before using such a third hand. Silver money is as bad as paper money but, while many would hesitate to hold a dirty bank note in their mouth, they think that a silver piece, because bright, is apparentJy clean. i-

Precaution in Hypodermic Medication. Solutions of the alkaloids soon decompose, and, for use in hypodermic medications, should therefore be freshly prepared. Where tabloids are preferred, commence with the smallest size. The dose hypodermically is less than by the stomach.

Great care should bo taken not to throw the injection into a vein, and so produce a sudden overwhelming effect. Fatal collapse might ensue from injecting air into a vein While absorption of an injection over tho temple or chest is twice as rapid as elsewhere, it should be remembered that, in the chest, it has bee$ followed by instant death.

Syncope may follow on injection, if the patient do not remain quiet and lying down. For safety and freedom from pain, an injection should bo inado in tho outside of tho arms or thighs, or in the abdomen or back. Injections should not be made over bony prominences or into inflamed or tense tissues. Mercury, ergot, etc., are best injected into muscles, as in tho nates.

The Hospital tjazette, iu advising the above precautions, adds that it is not usually considered safe to repeat an injection (as of morphine) sooner than half an hour. t!¥

To Increase or Reduce Weight. Kansas City Medical Index gives tho fol lowing rules, of interest to fat people and to lean:

To increase the weight: Eat, to the extent of satisfying a natural appetite, of fat meats, butter, cream, milk, cocoa, chocolato, bread, potatoes, peas, parsnips, carrots, beets, farinaccous foods, as Indiau corn, rice, tapioca, sago, corn starch, pastry, custards, oatmeal, sugar, sweet wines and ale. Avoid ccids. Exorcise ns littlo as possible 6leep all you can, and don't worry or fret.

To reduce tho weight: Eat, to tho extent of satisfying a natural appetite, of lean meat, poultry, game, eggs, milk moderately, green vegetables, turnips, succulent fruits, tea or coffee. Drink lime juice, lemonade and acid drinks. Avoid fat, butter, cream, sugar pastry, rice, sago,s tapioca, corn starch, potatoes, carrots, beets, parsnips and sweet wines. Exercise freely. 45

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE

Small but Significant Points In Good Maunorrt at tlie Tabic. "It is said that Cardinal Richelieu detected an adventurer who was passing himself off for a nobleman by liis helping himself to olives with a fork because it was the custom then, as it now is, to help one's self from the dish with the fingers if an olivo fork is not provided." With the foregoing Good Housekeeping prefaces some advice on small matters of table etiquotto, among which are the following points: Forks for the olive dish alone aro now manufactured and are very generally used, but after the olive has reached tbo plate it is always carried to the month with tho lingers. Of course wo are not referring to the stuffed olives bottled in oil.

Those who are very particular, hold the large end of a spear of asparagus with a fork, while with the tip end of a knife they daintily separate the tender green tops from the white ends, which is then put aside. Others take tho white end between the fingers and carry it to the mout h. Both are correct, but tho former is much more daintily and easily done.

The otiquctto of eating a soft boiled egg has been the subject of more than one clever essay. The English custom is to cat it directly from the shell, when of course a small oggcupand egg spoon are necessary. The American way is to break the egg into a cup or glass by striking the shell in the center and turning the contents into tho glass. In this case it Is usually eaten with a teaspoon, as an egg spoon, unless extra large, would be too small, and wo havo seen the egg held by a corner of the napkin, but this is not only tiresome but difficult to do nicely, without soiling tbo napkin.

Celery is always taken from tho dish and carried to tho mouth by the fingers. If individual salts are not provided, it is etiquette to use one-half of tbo butter plate for salt If salt shakers aro used, hold tho celery in tho left band just over the rim of your plato and gently sprinkle it with salt, and the old cuatom of putting a spoonful of salt on the clotb is still in practice. When corn i£ served on the cob it must be taken in the fingers, only managed very daintily. We have seen pretty little doylies for tho purpose of holding it, but it is a question if that is not carrying table linen too far.

Lettuce, when served without dressing, is usually pulled to pieces with the fingers. Watercress is also taken with the fingers, and the prettiest way of serving it is to obtain a long, low sided basket or dish, in the bottom of which lay a folded napkin, then heap the cress so as to fill tho basket, and you have not only an enjoyable but a very omaioentxJ dish for the breakfast table.

Newspaper Criticism.

It is a privilege every newspaper reserves to itself to criticise, adversely if needs be, for the public benefit, anything in which the public is deeply interested

It is the castom of H. H. Warner A Co., proprietors of the renowned Kidney and Liver Cure, better known as "Warner's Safe Cure," to flood the country, and especially the postofiSoes, with medical pamphlets. The writer has taken the liberty to examine one of these marvellous little books, and finds food for criticism, but before indulging in it, wiU give our readers some quotations therefrom, from the highest medical authorities, which we believe worthy of consideration. Under the head of "No Distinctive Symptoms Apparent," we find:

First—More adults are carried off in this country by chronic kidney disease than by any other one malady except consu mption.—[Thompson.

Second--Deaths from such diseases are increasing at the rate of 250 per cent a decade.—[Edwards.

Third—Bright's Disease has no symptoms of its own, and may long exist without tbe knowledge of tbe patient or practitioner, as no pain will be felt in the kidneys or their vicinity.—[Roberts.

Fourth—In the fatal cases—and most cases have hitherto been fatal—the symptoms of diseased kidneys will first ap pear in extremely different organs of the body as stated above.—[Thompson.

Fifth—Only when the disease has reached its final and fatal stages may tbe usual symptoms of albumen and tube casts appear in the water," and will great pain rack the diseased organs.— [Thompson.

Sixth—Bright's Disease, which usually has three stages of development, is a universal disease in Englanuand America.—[Roberts and Edwards.

Thompson is authority for saying that more adults are carried off in this coun try by kidney disease than any other malady except consumption. Under Warner's "Safe Cure" article on Con sumption, we find a paragraph claiming to ba a quotation from a publication issued by Brompion Hospital for Consumptives, London, England, which states that 02 per cent, of the patients ot that institution have uususpectod kidney disorder. Dr. Herman Brehiner, an eminent German authority also says thai Consumption is always due to deficieui nutrition of the lungs, because of -bad blood.

Medical science can no longer dispute tho fact that the kidneys are the principal blood purifying organs of the numat system, and if they are diseased and thus fail to expel the uric acid poison or thi waste through these two great organs, the "Safe Cure" claim is correct, ana the reasoning of its proprietor holds good.

Thero is no doubt but that in too mam instances the medical fraternity doctoi for symptoms, instead of striking at the root of the disease, and that under this form of treatment many patients die.

We cannot, however, see the necessity of continually flooding the country with theso advertising ineaical books, tvher their story once well told is enough foi the time being. People as a rule, nowa days, go to their newspaper for informHtion, and we believe such truths as wi have instanced could be proclaimed therein more advantageously to the pub lie and much more beneficially to tin proprietors.

Soble Blood by Transfusion. Mrs. S. White, a lady of high social standing and a large property owner at Tallulab, Ga., at which place she now resides, having given up her New York home, unfortunately met ?pi£h a severe accident, involving tbe loss of an immense quantity of blood. Count Percy N. de Duboeay, M. D., who is a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and a member of tho Royal Medical society, now resident physician and surgeon of Tallulah Falls, was soon in attendance upon her, and the hemorrhage was checked. So much blood, however, bad been lost previous to his arrival, and the ordinary means not proving as successful in restoring the patient (who is upward of 70 years of age) as could be desired, exhaustion being extreme, Count de Duboeay, by tbe modern operation known as "transfusion," ^ased directly from a blood vessel in his own arm a quantity of blood into a similar vessel in the arm of bis patient The result was most successful, aud Mrs. Whiter lifo has doubtless been saved by this timely and heroic action.—Atlanta Constitution.

Much sickness In farmers' families in winter is due to keeping large quantities of potatoes and other vegetables stored under sleeping rooms.

"When lovely woman stoops to folly," and goes out in the snow without her India rubbers, the only art to cure her cold is to buy one bottle of Dr. Hull's Cough Syrup at 25 cents, and take it.

That TiredS Feeling

That extreme tired feeling which is so distressing and often so unaccountable in the spring months, is entirely overcome by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which tones the whole body, purifies the blood, cures scrofula and all humors, cures dyspepsia, creates an appetite, rouses the torpid liver, braces up the nerves, and clears the mind. We solicit a comparison of Hood's Sarsaparilla with any other blood purifier in the market for purity, economy, strength, and medicinal merit.

"I had no appetite or strength, and felt tired all the time. I attributed tny condition to scrofulous humor. I had tried several kinds of medicine without benefit. But as soon as I had taken half a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, my appetite was restored, and my stomach felt better. I have, now taken nearly three bottles, and I never was so well." Mbs.Jessie F.

WAITK,

Everybody needs and should take a goot spring medicine, for two reasons: 1st, The body is now more susceptible tt benefit from medicine than at any other season 2d, The impurities whicti have accumulated in the blood should be expelled, and the sy» tern given tone and strength, before the pro» trating effects of warm weather are felt.

Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the best spring medicine. A single trial will convince you of Its superiority. Tako it before it is too late.

The Beat Spring Medicine I tako Hood's Sarsaparilla for a spring medicine, and I find it just the thing. It tones up my system and makes me feel like a different man. My wife takes it for dyspepsia, and she derives great benefit from it. She says It is the best medicine she ever took." F. C. TtrnxsB, Hooli & Ladder No. 1, Boston, Mass. "Last spring I was troubled with bolls, caused by my blood being out of order. Two bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla cured me.

I

can recommend it to all troubled with affe» tions of the blood." J. SCHOCH, Peoria, I1L
