Modern Life in Athens.
The following extracts from a private
letter recently received by a Providence
gentleman from an American student in
Athens, Greece, will prove of general
interest: "I live in a Greek family,' he
writes, "where we speak only Greek.
The house is on JEolus street, with Soc
rates, Euripides and Hcrmis streets not
far off; so that you can easily imagine
the hallowed associations that-are dailv
suggested. Our 'maid-of-all-work'- is
named Athena. There are twenty-eight
newspapers in the city. T can count a
dozen dailies on my lingers, and 1 pre
sume there are others of which 1 have
not heard. With that number of papers
and 250 lawyers, as main priots. and a
dozen thousand soldiers.'the 80,000 peo
ple in Athens are pretty well .supplied
with these appurtenances of life. Thecity
is very modern, though in some parts it
does not look so; but where . dirt is al
lowed to accumulate it soon makes
things look hoary. 1 suppose Athens is
the type, or better than the type, of all
Oriental cities, and that where "people
can make a weal oft' a piece of bread
and a bunch of grapes industry is not
necessary. But I have notseen a man
ufactory in the city, aside from the little
-hops of a few handicraftsmen. The
whole town has grown up about the pal
ace of the Ring. The rich men are
those who hae made or are making for
tunes elsewhere, and live here for 5o
iet . The University of Athens has i",
VM stuii"iit. 1.500 of them in law. and
two-third of them destined to be farm
ers -for many of the law students will
never practice that profession. There
are hundreds of wine shops well filled.
The streets are full of bustling men. but
they are bound for nowhere. .At the
I'ineus (the Harbor City) there are 25,-
noo people engaged in active industry.
i. . :.
!' in
I.esith- the foreign shiiminir there is a
onsiderable coasting trade in farm pro
duce. .The people here are ven proud,
but the jr'orv of a dead past i only a
bond of iinitv ami patriotism, not a sup
port of individual life. There are no
parties on public questions, only cliques
supporting certain leaders with their
politics, which may or may not be differ

An Arkansas Stomach.
Another dignified Senator has been
taught the lmsteries of the ostensible
caramel which one of the boys of his
hotel had invented for the purpose of
making miserable the lives of other
children. The Senator owed Garland
one, and saw his opportunity. He pro
cured souie of the alleged sweets and
placed them carelessly on his desk.
The game succeeded. Garland spied
the deceptive chocolates, and carelessly
sauntered by. picked up one of them
and said: .What are these. Senator?"
"They are caramels. Take one.'
"Thank you. T will." and he took one.
Now the caramel was filled with soap,
and the jokers expected to see Garland
spit out the nauseous stuff That was
where the laugh was to come in. But
Garland' disappointed them. He ate
up the whole thing, soap and all, and
never made a sign. The perpetrator
became frightened and ran out into the
cloak-room, exclaiming. "Good Lord,
I'm afraid the man's poisened.' "Oh,
ou needn't be alarmed, said Butler,
of South" Carolina. "Garland's got an
Arkansas stomach.' To this day no
one knows whether Garland tasted the
?oap or not. Washington Capital.

Bleced BenefisCtors.
'When a board "of eminent plsyrlclans and
chemists announced the discovery that Toy
combining some well-known valuable reme
dies, the most wonderful medicine was proj
duced, which would cure such a wlderanro ot
diseases that most all other remedies could bo
dispensed with, many wero skeptical; but
proof of its merits by actual trial has dispelled
all doubt, and to-day the discoverers of that
great medicine, Hop Bitters, are honored and
blessed by all as benefactors. Tboso Bitters
are compounded from Hops, Buchu, Halt,
Mandrake and Dandelion and other oldest,
best, and most valuable medicines in the
world and contain all tho best and most cura
tive properties of all other medicines, being
the greatest Blood Purifier, Kidney and Liver
Kegulator,, and Life and Health Restoring
Agent on earth. No disease or ill health can
possibly long exist where these Bitters aro
used, so varied and perfect" aro their openir
tions.
They givo new life and vigor to the aged and
.nfirm. To all whose employments cause ir
regularity of tho bowels or urinary organe, o
who reiiuiro an Appetizer, Tonic and mild
Stimulant, these Bitters are invaluable, being
highly curative, tonic and stimulating, witli
out intoxicating.
No matter what your feelings or symptoms
nre, what the disoaso or ailment is, ubo Hop
Hitters. Don't wait until you aro sickbut it
you only feel bad or miserable, use the Bitters
at once. It may save your life. Hundreds
huvc been saved by so doing. C3r"?500jgS
villbepaidfor u caso they will not cure or
help.
Do not suffer yourself or let yourfrieuds
suffer, but use and urge them to use Hop Bite
ters.
Remember, Hop Bitters Vz tho purest and
best medicine over made: the "Invalid's!
Friend and Hope." No person or family
should be without them.
"I was troubled for many years with seriotia
Kidney and Livor Complaint. Gravel, etc.: my
blood cccaine thin: I was dull and inactive;
could hard ly crawl about, and was an old worn
out man all oer, and could get nothing to
help tne, until I got Hop Uittei s. and now I ani
a boy ugain. Jly blood i pure, kidneys aro all
richt, and I lira as active as a man of 30, al
though I am 7A FATJIEH."
For ten years my wife was confined to her
bed with such n complication of ailments thai
no doctor could tell what was the matter o
euro her, and I used up a small fortunoin
hurhbuirstutf. Six months ago I saw a 17. S.
flag with Hop Hitters on it, and I thought I
would be a fool once more, and I tried it, but
my folly proved to be wiedoin.und two bottles
cured her. she Is now as well and strong as any
man's wife, and it tfost me only two dr liars.
