Bo read the headlines of many a news
paper column, and we peruse with palpi
tating interest the details of the catastro
phe, and are deeply imprensed by the sac
rifice of human lives involved. Yet thous
ands of men and women are falling victims
very year to that terrible disease, con
sumption (scrofula of the lungs), and they
and their friends are satisfied to believe
the malady incurable. Now, there could
be no greater mistake. No earthly power,
of course, can restore a lung that is en
tirely wasted, but Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery will rapidly and surely ar
rest the ravages of consumption, if taken
in time. Do not, therefore, despair, until
you have tried this wonderful remedy.

time they como into my office. When one
gets on my list I tell you she stays ! " and
Dr. H laughed long and loud. This is
quackerv gilt-edged, genteel quackery to
keep suffering woman paying tribute year

Ella Lowe's Nice Dowry.
What a stir there was in the city
when it was known that Millioniare
Lowe had failed. Ella Lowe, who
had been the belle of New York, found
her admirers falling: off one by one,
and even that exquisite Evan Plan
tniranet, to whom she had become
lately engaged, found opportunity to
break away.
But there was a poor cousin a
country doetor in a little Hudson
town who heard the news of the fail
ure with sorrifl decree of Dleanure.
Roderick Blair had long loved his
cousin, but as lonpr as she was so rich
and he so poor he had held his peace.
He lost no time in repairing to the
humble lodzinirs where the once mil
lionaire had brought his family. He
found Ella, as bright as ever and
quite contented with her condition, !
for she had begun to tire of society
and liked her quiet life.
While Blair felt honored in visiting
her, the old-time admirers seldom ap
peared. She was no longer a belle.
Vhen she went out she was treated
like other girls. It hurt her vanity,
but the lesson was salutary.
One pleasant winter day she ac
cepted the hand of Roderick Blair. It
might be a long engagement, for both
were poor, but they trusted each
other.
Meanwhile Mrs. Blairwasdelighted
(She came down often and brought
nil the villago news. Among other
things, a description of the splendid
new house a rich man, whose name
hhe did not know, was building on
the very next piece of land to that on
which her own brown cottage stood,
It was a marvel of perfection
thoroughly well appointed in every
way, and it was now being furnished
from roof to has imnt in the most
elegant manner. The furnishings
did not coma at first of course. In
deed, it took six months to arrive at
that point. And a stained glass win
dow in the hall and a conservatory,
thoroughly stocked, brought the old
lady down on a special visit.
lir. Lowe was always interested in
her account of the place.
"I should like to see it," he said.
"I will come up with Ella next Mon
dav, and, no doubt, I may get per
mission to go through it with you."
"Delightful!" said Mrs. Blair. "I
adore handsome houses."
Ella smiled; and the result was. that
the following Monday Mr. Lowe,
hearty and happy as in his happiest
days, offered his arm to Mrs. Blair,
and leaving the young couple to fol
low, escorted her from her own quiet
home to the elegant new mansion.
The man who was carefully polishing
the stone porch opened the door for
him, and all ;four entered.
Certainly a handsomer and yet
more homelike house could not have
been found in all America. Mrs.
Blair was in raptures. Roderick,
looking down at Ella, said:
"My dear, I wish I could give you
such a house."
And she answered:
"Ah, Roderick, I wish I could bring
sich a home witli me when I come to
you."
Mr. Lowe heard, and paused with
a smile.
"Say you so, children?" he cried.
"Well, then, my dears, if you like it,
I will give it to you. Take it and en
joy it."
It seemed a witticism, at which
they all laughed, and they went home
together, happy and friendly, and
took tea in the widow's cottage.
After the meal was over, Mrs. Lowe
once more brought up the subject of
the new house.
"Would you really like to live
there, good Ella," he asked, "so far
from town and all its gayeties?"
"Papa, I hate town," said Ella.
"A country life nnd true honest
friends for me."
"I agree with you, child," siad Mr.
Lowe. "The world is very hollow,
society very unsatisfying to the soul,
yet it is not usual to feel that while
we are young."
"We nave had our experiences. I
think they are sufficient. But, dear
friends, I have a confession to make.
The story of my total loss of fortune
was an exaggeration. Ilost$50,000,
it is true, sufficient for a foundation
for the rumor. I fostered it, and
played the ruined man to perfection.
My motive was to save Ella from a
fortune-hunter, and to give her to a
good man who really loved her. She
lias found him.
"My dears, get married as soon as
you like. The house yonder was built
for you. You, Mrs. Blair, will, of
course, live with your son, and you
must find foom for me somewhere
- within its walls, dear madam. I
think we will all be happy together.
There, talk anout it now. xou
have engaged yourself to a rich wom
an against your will. Roderick, and
will hn.vn tn nut. nn with ir "
AUU lit? luuk inn uauuuivi untajTj
wrapped in her fur-lined cloak, and
smiling back at her lover.
Again the millionaire Lowe was a
nine days' wonder in the city of New
York. Again the fashionable world
offered its invitations, and Evan
Plantagnant's mother went to call
on dear Ella, and tell her how Plan
taganot regretted the misundcrstand-
, ing; but she found a wedding party
assembled in the little parlor, and
j discovered that Ella had been Mrs.
Blair for nearly half on hour. 8ho
had self-possession enough to present
her congratulations and retire speed
ily. She was not wanted, and the
late belle quite understood what had
brought Iter there. For her part, she
was happier than she had been in
those days of adulation and flattery,
and would not havo exchanged her
true loving husband for nil her train
of admirers, for all the hollow world
eouM offer.
The Czar's Trouble,
St, Petersburg Corr. New York Tribnna.
The crowning sorrow of the czar's
life has just come upon him. nis
wife, to whom he is passionately de
voted, and who is the most gracious
and captivating woman that has
ever adorned a European throne, has
become violently insane. Her ner
vous system had already lieen com
pletely shattered by the repeated at
tempts on her husbands life, and
since the terrible railway accident at
Borki a couple of months ago, when
so many of her favorite attendants
lost their lives, her mental depres
sion bus increased to a most alarm
ing degree. the passes whole days
in absolute silence; on other occa
sions she refuses to touch a morsel
of food, while at times sheeven fails to
recognize the members of her lamily.
Her dementia has assumed the same
aggravated character as that which
two years ago necessitated the deten
tion of her majesty's younger sister,
the Princess Thyra, in a privateluna
tic asylum near Vienna for the space
of eight months. Theextremegravity
of the Czarina's casecan be estimated
by the fact that at the request of the
Emperor and his physicians, Ur.
Charcot, the famous Parisian mad
doctor, and Prof, von Leldcsdorf,the
director of the celebrated lunatic
asylum at Dobling, near Yiennn.who
had charge of the Duchess off 'umber
land's case, have both arrived in the
city en route to (iatschina. Serious
fetirs are entertained that the Em
press may attempt to desfroy her
self, mid she is watched day and
night without intermission by the
physicians and trained nurses. Her
recovery is extremely dou lit fill, for
ko long as her husband remains on
the throne the danger of his assas
sination will subsist; and hence she
will never be permitted to enjoy any
permanent relief from the horrible
anxiety which has wrought such
havoc in her brain.
The Bad Manners of Royalty.
Once a Week.
Notwithstanding the quasi denial
of the official German press, it is true
that Queeu Victoria received the
speciul German envoys sent to Eng
land to announce the accession of
William II, in a very ungracious man
ner. This is not the first exhibition
of brusquerie on the part of her ma
jesty. Many years ago, when her
first prime minister, Lord Melbourne,
resigned, Sir Robert Peel wns sent
for. On his arrival at St. James Sir
Robert proceeded to explain his
policy, and demanded certain changes
to be made in her majesty's house
hold. This the queen peremptorily
refused to submit to, nnd on Sir
Robert asking why he was sent for,
her majesty replied that it was done
without her consent, and that she
wanted no Tory ministry.
A few years ago Mr. Gladstone was
also subjected to a mark of roval dis
courtesy, but the Grand Old Man
promptly returned a Roland for her
Oliver. In conversing with the queen in
relation to a matter of state, the then
prime minister used the word "must"
in referring to what should be her
ma jesty s conduct m the matter,
"Sir," exclaimed the queen indig
nantly-, "do you known who I am? I
am the oueen of England!" "Your
majesty, repliedMr. Gladstone quick
ly, "do you know who I am? I n,m
the people of England!" But if her
majesty showed scant courtesy to
the new German emperor in the per
son of his envoys, it must not be for
gotten that William II. himself
showed still less courtesy to a queen
the other day in expelling her per
emptorily fromhisdominions. Kings
and queens might learn a lesson in
good manners from republicans.
He Wanted the Time.
A man in Ansonia, Conn., owns and
lives in a house that overlooks a
largeclock. Unfortunately, however
the man f lunks ho cannot see the
clock from the chamber window, as a
brick chimney intervenes. To obviate
this and have the pleasure of looking
to see the time of day or night while
in bed (for the clock has an illuminated
d ial ) , he one day bored a hole through
the walls of his bedroom, close to the
head of his bed, inserted a piece of
two-inch gas pipe with a glass in the
outer end, and now all he has to do is
to place his eye at the inner opening
and he has a focus upon the clock
with-out leaving his bed. His friends
asked him, when this was completed,
why he did not have a clock in his
room instead of being to so much
trouble. And for the first time it
dawned upon him that it would have
been as well.
They Did Not Appreciate Literature .

"This, gentleman," said theauctio
ecr, looking at the printed title, "is

Eliot. How much'm I offered to

"Dollar and a half said the man in
the crowd.
"Dollar naf naf naf. Going at a

auctioneer, raising his voice in indig
nation, "it's a shamel If there was
anybody in this crowd," ho went on
with increasing wrath, "that was ac
customed to reading good books, I
