I WONDER WHY.

When the winds of fortune wafted* And life so happy setmcd. And shadows never darkened Where sunbeams ever glieamed. And when our feet were steady, And we could firmly stand— I wonder why so many Reached out a friendly hand.

As wealth to us incruases. And our cotters overflow. And every wish Is granted The

longing

heart can know,

A question rises ever. Like the rising of tho tide— I wonder why so many Are always by cur side.

There came a day of shadows And the tide went out to sea, And with it went our fortune/p^ And health and hope did flee.V -t^ Twas then we turned for comfort, B"t the sunshine friends had fled.,, I wonder why so many Then coldly turned their head.

I sometimes grow despondent. It seems so very strange Tite friends we bad in sunshine Should with the shadows change.'^"* But ho(»3 sometimes will brighten My soul by doubt so riven. I wonder if 'tis true 1 We'll never change in heaven. —Brooklyn Eagle.

DR. CARAWAY.

For three mortal months the editor of The Wagon Tire Wanvhoop had been calling for a physician. It is not meant to be implied that for this length of time the able journalist bad been rolling about the floor of his office in violent pain, imploring the general public to call a medical man to bis relief, but that he had for three months been using the valuable space of The Warwhoop to direct attention to the fact that there was no doctor in Wagon Tire, and that there was an urgent demand for one. At last his altruistic efforts were rewarded.

One day in August a tall, flimsy young man wearing a white tie and carrying a battered and old fashioned patent leather bag (somebody suggested that the patent had expired) alighted from the train and looked about with nn air as if he might stay or might walk back into the car and go on. Before he could do tho latter the editor of The Warwhoop stepped up to him, grasped his band and asked him what his name might be, where he might be from and what he might be going to do in Wagon Tire. A great wave of the quintessence of refined joy welled up in the editorial bosom when the flimsy young man replied that he was the long prayed for physician. Without a word the journalist seized the decaying bag, and holding it in both hands before him as if it were a pot of boiling water led the way to the Frontier hotel.

When Tho Warwhoop appeared the next day, it announced that, "thanks to our superhuman efforts for the good of the city, a physician has located in our midst at last. He is Dr. Benedict Cartway, M. D., lately graduated from the Flunkmour Medical college of Chicago. Dr. Caraway informs us that he will make a specialty of dangerous diseases." The young man secured an office in the back part of the One Price pharmacy aud awaited practice.

Dr. Caraway was not a man to inspire confidence. He was a callow youth, without understanding of medicine or acquaintance with the human system. He never laughed, but was much given to smiling and looking away at the horizon, an astronomical appurtehance which at Wagon Tire was situated about 20 miles distant to any point of the compass. Though Apparently weak and irresolute, when consulted professionally ho took hold of the case with a Arm hand. His prescriptions were in variably long and caused the owner of the One Price pharmacy to whistle softly to himself as he compounded them and cast up the charge with the aid of a lead pencil.

When asked privately by a somewhat wavering patient as to his opinion of Dr. Caraway'd-ability, this amiable chemist replied: "Oh, Doo ain't none of your big, gilt edged physicians, of course, but when you mint plain, honest treatment for a straightforward disease which is on the vital it pretends to be on he can give it to you as well as the next one. With a disease that is willing to fight fair Doc is all O. K." The man got the prescription r®,fllled and went away pondering deeply.

The young man soon had a large practice, for there was no other doctor within 80 miles. Besides, the burning local patriotism of Wagon Tire, fostered by "The Warwhoop," caused the people to follow the maxim to "patronize home industry" at any cost. The town at the time was engaged in a lite and death struggle with Red Bird City for Supremacy in county capital matters), it being highly probable that the larger place would carry off the prize at election. But.it was soon seen that the liberal employment of young Dr. Caraway was doing more hurt than good in this race with the rival town. "Another old settler and prominent citlzeu has gone to that bourne from which nobody ever returns," was the constantly recurring announcement of The Warwhoop. "Our late fellow citizen," the account would pathetically conclude, "was attended in his last sickness by Wagon Tire's skillful physician, Dr. Benedict Caraway, M. D. Hick jacets Requiespace in scat." It was seen that the price being paid for the ability to flaunt a doctor in the face of the phyxicianlcss Red Bird was too high. A public meeting was called to consider the dilemma.

Nothing was ever done in Wagon Tin? without a public meetiug, in which respect it resembled Red Bird City and all other territorial towns. The people assembled in Calliope hall, above the Square Dealing Hardware store. Everybody in town was present except Dr. Caraway, who did not come out of a sense of delicacy. A chairman and secretary wore elected, and after the expenditure of a considerable amount of eloquence the following- resolutions were adopted:

Whereas, Dr. Benedict Caraway, M. D., a late graduate of the Flunkmour Medioal colof Chicago reoeatly settled in our midst and

Whereas, We have extended to him all the support in oar power. Galling upon him for treatment many times when it was sot needed, both In tho case of small temporary sicknesses and In that of diseases of long standing, which were known to be beneficial rather than otherwise and

Whereas, We could formerly point with pride to an almost total absence In Wagon lire of deaths from natural causes, the fell destroyer coming among only when summoned by the unfortunate bark of the six shooter or the beneficial noose of our efficient metropolitan improvement committee, we axe now, on the contrary, dally reminded that in the midst of life we are in death by seeing the said Dr. Benedict Caraway, M. D., pursuing his depopulating rounds in oor city. Therefor*, viewing with alarm

present de|)ombte state of at

tain, be it Resolved. That tho *aid Dr. Benedict Oara* .way,M.D.. be hereby prohibited from prao» ttolng his profession upon human beings and compelled to confine bit attention to horses, antes, cattle, swine and ettlMosof Bed Bird siatr ,.4 Bisftalved, That the chair appoint a eooatt

toe of five, to be selected from the Metropolitan Improvement society, to present tor the said doctor an engrossed copy of these resolutions, and that the said committee also procore their publication in The Wagon Tire Warwhoop.

But two men voted in opposition to these resolutions—the druggist and the undertaker. Self interest was freely charged against them.

The committee was duly appointed and soon waited on the young physician. He was found in the open square in front of the postoffice writing a prescription for a ranchman on a shingle. He read the resolutions calmly, then looked at tne horizon and smiled feebly as he observed, "Well, there are jnore horses and mules in this country than men, and I guess on the whole they have got more brains than the men."

Dr. Caraway made not the least resistance to the order. He removed the M. D. after his name on the sign, substituted V. S. and was ready for practice on the animal kingdom. "Tbe ease with Which our efficient physician," observed The Warwhoop, "turns from man to animals is remarkable. Persons having sick horses, mules, cattle or hogs would do well to consult him early. Calls from Red Bird City to attend the distinguished citizens of. that place will be answered promptly."

The doctor's first call in his new field was to treat a horse belonging to Jim Crabstock, president of the board of trade. The young man hurried away to the Crabstock barn with his patent leather bag in tyis band. He soon returned and wrote along prescription, which brought back the druggist's old serenity. Only the undertaker still stood on the sidewalk and cried out against the injustice of the change. He returned to th$ barn carrying a large bottle, the contents of which he gave to the horse. Then he came out and closed and fastened the door carefully and sat down on an empty cracker box. He sat there along time, occasionally peeping through a crack in the door at his patient. In reply to the inquiries of Crabstock when that citizen came home to dinner he said: "Yes, yoUr horse is going to come out al! right. What he needs is rest. I just gave him something to make him sleep, and when he wakes up he will be a good deal better." "You are dead sure you know how to treat the horse?" asked Crabstock. "Certainly. Isn't that my business?" answered the doctor, with a suspicion of indignation in his voice. "Mebby you do. I hope so. But the Flunkmour college ain't a vet'rinary school, you know." "On the contrary, that is precisely what it is." The young man looked away at the horizon proudly and then smiled gently in his old way. Crabstock went inio the house.

All the afternoon Dr. Caraway" sat on the box and watched the horse through the crack. He beckoned to every man wllo came within range to come Qnd iook'at him. Until it was too dark to see he had a procession of men tiptoeing up to the crack and peeping in«at the animal. "See how naturally he sleeps," he would say. "That is what the horse wants—rest and sleep. When he wakes up, I'll give him this." and he drew another big bottld from the box, "and that will fetch him out all right" He retired to his room about midnight after locking the barn door, but he was again at the crack at sunrise, waiting for the opportunity to administer the other bottle. Soon he was marshaling another procession of men and making them speak in a whisper for fear of waking the horse.

A certain per cent of these lingered to see the second bottle given, so that at 8 o'clock In the afternoon,when the doctor announced that the horse had slept enough and should be wakened, there was a considerable number present. He called upon Judge Durleigh of the county court to carry the bottle and then opened the door. He went in, followed by the crowd, and cautiously approached the sleeping animal. He took hold of one of his feet and pulled gently. The horse was dead.

Subsequently County Coroner Biggert, who happenedtojdrop in, gave it as his unofficial opinion that the animal had died soon after swallowing the first bottle.—New York Tribune.

Vv Bending

The bending of iron piping and bare of any section without kinking or flattening them is now claimed to be accomplished by a recently invented machine, so constructed that the bedplate may bp attached to any improvised bench by means of four screws, there being on this bedplate an upwardly projecting journal, in line with which is a slot in which latter may be adjusted at any distance fipm the center of the journal a stud or burr.

A lever with a bifurcated end, in which are fitted a large and a small bending wheel, both grooved so that when their perimeters are brought together they exactly fit the pipe or bar to be shaped, constitutes the moving part of the apparatus. Aud these wheels are interchangeable for other wheels in bending different sizes of bars or pipes. The large bending wheel is passed over the upwardly projecting journal in the bedplate, this journal not only passing through the wheel, but through the bifurcated~end of the lever. The smaller wheel is journal ed through these counterparts by a pin, which is adjustable to different distances when the large wheel is interchanged.

When the lever is turned so as to abut against the stud or burr, the pipe or bar to be shaped .is passed through between the two wheels, and the lever thenbeing turned to a position at right angles with that which it occupied when the pipe or bar was Inserted aright angle bead will be formed. —New York Sun.

Solar Heat as a Care.

Dr. D. V. Thayer of San Francisco says: "During a practice of more than a quarter of a century I have found no caustic or cautery to compare with solar heat in its beneficial results. Unlike other caustics, it can be applied with perfect safety upon the most delicate tissues and is at all times under the control of the operator. It has other advantages—the system receives this treatment kindly. The irritation and inflammation following its application are surprisingly slight and of short duration. "Another point is in its Savor—the pain subsides immediately upon the removal of the lots. I have burned the skin of nearly the whole of one side of the face at one sitting, destroying the cuticle. Within five minutes the burned surfaoe would be free of pain. There is a curative power In the chemical rays of the sun yet unexplained. I avoid blistering, carrying the burden beyond this point, carbonizing the tissue."

SOME WUMi^ SCRIBE!

A CAUSTIC CRITICISM OF THEIR ANATHEMAS AGAINST THE SEX.

Editorial Work That Is Misapplied and Unappreciated In This Era of Enlightenment and Universal Reading—The Conventional Woman's Page.

The estimate of the editor of the average "woman's page" in the newspaper is, upon the whole, not flattering to the intelligence of the sex. They have, first of all, one important fact to learn, and, that is that women nowadays, with few exceptions, read the entire paper-—news, specials, editorial page and all The woman of ordinary brains may not wade through long congressional debates, but in this respect .she differs little from the generality Of men. She docs, however, read the Washington dispatches and is generally found to have a pretty good idea of the attitude of the leading political parties upon all leading questions. This is true not only of the city woman, the club woman and the teacher, but it is equally or still more true of farmers' wives and the women of the country towns and villages.

It has been my good fortune to know wonien well nearly every walk of lifewomen wlho work with their hands, who sew and scrub and wash women on the farms and in the schools and colleges, both as teachers and students, with many others in the professions—artists, writers, singers and actors. I have had the privilege^ of hearing them talk and in talking'with them upon those topics in which they are most interested An eminent English writer once said that he gauged the intelligence of a people by the proportion of generalities to personalities in their conversation. It is a safe test, and, moreover, one of those rules that work both ways.

With a knowledge of women in the course of aI profession where there are few distinctions made, Ihave also had unusual opportunity to talk with men under somewhat unusual circumstances, in their offices, in the excitement of political campaigns, in their places of business, where weighty matters of partisan interest or ^statesmanship were being discussed, and I am ready to affirm that it was difficult to decide in whose conversation, that of men or women, personalities most abound.

Many years ago, while connected wfth a country paper, I went one day in the week to the courthouse to collect news relating to the appointment of guardians and administrators and similarinformafion. I recall vividly that upon these rounds I frequently gathered up more town gossip than I ever heard at all the church socials and teadrinkings I managed to attend between times. "They say" was quite as mysterious and authoritative within the stronghold of justice as it was in the parlors of my worn-' en friends.

If a wife left her huisband, if a husband deserted bis wife, if there were irregularities in the conduct of any man or woman in the town—particularly of any womanit was known to the clerks and lawyers in that courthouse for some time before it became a common topic for feminine gossip

I do not intend by this statement to re fleet upon either .men or women, but to show what I have always believedt because it has been so unvaryingly demonstrated— that is, that there is a vast deal of human nature in both men and women. Taking into account the difference of their training "(a vital-matter always), men and women are interested in about' the same things.

It is also to be borne in mind that within the past 20 years the public schools have done an immense deal toward broadening women's minde, enlightening, them and giving them a capacity for the intelligent Consideration of questions beyond dress and personalities. I do not mean that they have lost their interest in either Of these— the woman who has no regard for personal appearance is less than half a woman—but they are interested quite as deeply in much besides.

For this reason the conventional page, in nine cases out of ten, is an insult to both head and heart. Conspicuous in its columns are hideous caricatures of fashion, women with wasp waists, attenuated arms and faces as expressionless as a pifece of paper. With these edifying illustrations .are articles dealing with the insincerity of women's character, with their uncharitableness and cruelty toward each other their features, their stupid and senseless blunders, with dissertations upon their lack of honesty, interspersed with others on some

edifying theme as "Why Are Women Afraid of Mice?" Mrs. Lynn Lynton is a favorite critic whose bitter and disloyal anathemas against her own sex only prove a nature warped and soured and therefore incapable of making a just estimate of anything {pertaining to women. Marion Harland, who has almost equaled Mrs. Lynton in her severity, is another contributor to the average woman's page. Still other contributions, I regret to say, are from the pens of younger women, who in abusing and belittling their sister women, whom they do not know and whose friendship they have never sought or valued, imagine that they are proving their own mental superiority and hope thus to curry favor with the critics of the other sex.

If these beginners bad the confidence of women which their own disloyalty and hostility forbid^ they would learn that a good deal of the common sense of this world i& the heritage of women who possibly make no great professions to culture or mental superiority. The farmer's wife nowadays discusses the silver question and the tariff with her husband. Working women are interested in educational and philanthropic questions, and it is upon these themes, quite as much as ujybp personal topics and matters pertaining to the toilet, that they read and talk. It would be well for those who undertake to cater intellectually for the women of the country to cultivate their acquaintance individually and collectively. —Maty EL Krout in Chicago Inter Ocean.

Tomato Jelly.

To make tomato jelly for salads, take a can of tomatoes, or, in tomato season, 8 medium sized tomatoes, skinned and stewed. Take also one-fourth of a box of gelatine. Pass the tomatoes through a sieve or strainer to remove the seeds, etc. Season with pepper and salt, and then add the gelatine, which has previously been melted in hot water. It is now ready to be poured into a mold, and should thai be placed on the ice to set When ooid, garnish with crisp lettuce leaves and pour over the whole a mayonnaise dressing. Or the jelly may be broken up and used as a garnish itself, with the lettuce and dressing in the cen tar of the dish.

Tlu lion oflusiugM.

Of all people,wewbo speak the have the best right to be proud of our language. It is without question the lion of languages and has proved itself a conqueror wherever it has gained a foothold, for it is peculiarly adapted to every race, clime and condition. Its extensive adaptability isillimiteble, and it is remarkably and aggressively voracious, for wherever it goes it sounds the deathknell of all its rivals. Coeval with its durance into Great Britain it began its work of destruction. The real British, the Cymric or Welsh, Erse or Irish, the Gaelic of Scotland and the Manx of the Isle of Man all went down before it, it may be said, for the British Celtic is absolutely gone from the earth, and the others must soon follow and become like many languages of the past, for what remain of them at the present time are entirely local, It is notable that, in addition to those cited, it conquered and banished the Norse, the Norman-French and several other tongues which made ah effort to transplant themselves on English soil, and is still and will continue to be at work throughout the world, planting itself and at the same time displacing others.

It is not long since French was the handiest language to a traveler upon the continent, but at this time we are proud to say that English is by far superior because it is more frequently spoken. It has become the commercial language. It is being taught in the schools of all nations, and no English speaking man need fear that he may not make himself understood in any part of the world when employingthislanguage as a means of communication.

Professor Grim of Berlin says of the English language that it has a thorough power of expression such as no other language ever possessed. It may truly be called a world language, for no other may venture to compare with it in richness, reasonableness and solidity of texture. Prevost Paradol, a learned Frenchman, says that neither Russia' nor Germany, supposing that they should attain the highest fortune, can pretend to impede the current of things nor prevent that solution, relatively near at hand, of -the long rivalry of European races for the ultimate colonization and domination of the universe. He says further that "the world will hot be Russian nor German nor French, alas! nor Spanish, but it will be Anglo-Saxon."

No clearer or truer description of the languages enumerated, with their relativedifferences, ever appeared in type thanis conveyed in the following poem:

Greek's a harp we love to hear. Latin is a trumpet clear. Spanish like an organ Swells. Italian rings its bridal bells. France, with many a frolio mien, Tunes her sprightly violin. Loud the German rolls his drum When Russia's flashing Cymbals come. But Briton's sons may well rejoice, For English is the human voice. The English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Scandinavian are the most powerful languages within the bounds of Christian civilization, because they are the tongues of vigorous people. With the exception of the English, these are all indigenous and die if transplanted. The United States is the youngest of powerful countries, yet it is a cemetery of many languages. For instance, French, one of the sweetest of tongues, threatened- tov become the national language. Louisiana was settle| by people of the French nation, who brought their language with them and planted it upon that soil in Anticipation of its growth. Instead, however, of its growing and spreadingover the country, it oegan to weaken, and it will soon disappear from the memories of the inhabitants of that state.

It is only necessary to note the population according to these several languages to realize the unchangeable future of the English, now striding on and on over the face of the earth with wonderful impetuosity and a vigor that will not be restrained.

English is spoken by 90,000,000 of people Russian, 75,000,000 German, 56,000,000 French, 40,000,000 Spanish, 88,000,000 Italian, 29,000,000 Portuguese, 14,000,000, and Scandinavian, 9,000,000. Within the control of the government of these several languages England rules over 265,000,000 of people who do not as yetfspeak the English language, and the other seven have only 75,000,000 outside of themselves—an astonishing difference.

It must be remembered, besides, that the English language is divided into two governments only, while the other six are divided into 26, all of whom are filled with bitter enmities one for the other, while they are and it appears ever will be using every device aad pretense to supplant and coerce the other, but it is just as noticeable that England and the United States are now and will ever continue at peace. To those who have carefully and with unprejudiced minds considered the subject there can be no doubt that the English will eventually become the universal language of the earth, and when we observe the astonishing strides it has made in the past it may aptly be remarked that the time is not far distant, particularly if it advances into foreign countries and continues the rate of progress which it has attained for the past 50 years.

It was through the medium of the Dutch language that the Japanese carried on their foreign correspondence until within a few years. Now they have changed the Dutch for the English, and in more than 50.00Q. schools in Japan English is being taught, while the sons of the most wealthy and titled families are sent to our colleges to oomplete their education, where English is spoken and our manners predominate.

It is estimated that since the building of that famous Tower of Babel there have been 1,500 distinct languages and 8,500 colloqtdals, or 5,000 different forxns of speech, •t the present time 600 of the primary languages are dead, leaving only900spoken all over the earth, with about2,500colloquials. —Philadelphia Times.

Womanly Beauty.

Grenaille, a French author of the sixteenth century, wrote a large and very scientific book on female beauty and endowed his ideal of female loveliness with the following attributes: "Youth, medium stature, medium fullness of form, chestnut brown hair, symmetry of limb, a delicate skin, revealing the blue veins, rosy complexion, a smooth, serene brow, uniformly arched temples, narrow eyebrows which do not meet eloquent, dark brown eyes, a winsome smile, cherry red lips, a small mouth, small milk white teeth, a sweet breath, a soft, agreeable voice a chin which does not protrude and is graced by a dimple small, rosy ears, a slender throat of ivory whiteness small, soft, white hands, nicely tapering fingers, graceful gestures, an easy, dignified walk shining finger nails, smooth and well curved an even, pleasant temperament good taste in dress, superficial education, small, pretty feet and attentive demeanor toward others."

The Education of Girls.

Not until the dawn of the nineteenth century were any suitable provisions made tor the education of girls, except in Pennsylvania among the Quakers, where more liberal ideas prevailed. In these schools, chartered by William Penn as early as 1711, girls had equal advantages. To appreciate this step we must consider the general hostility to any education for women beyond the domestic accomplishments and the general ignorance that prevailed as to their nature and capabilities. Men thought that if women acquired a love of science, philosophy, literature and art they would neglect their homes and children, their husbands' buttons and stockings and the general welfare of the family.—Chicago Journal.
