gaeen Victoria's Sunday.
Queen Victoria's Suiiday is described
In a recent number of The Qniver :
"After broukfast her majesty takes a
tnrn round the grounds in her famous
donkey ohuise , and then goes to morn
ing service. There it is customary for
the preacher to wear a black gown and
to read from manuscript thr.t is , in
England , for in Scotland the rule is not
bo 'strict. No personal reference to her
majesty in the preacher's discourse is
admitted , a pure gospel discourse , de
livered as if the queen were not present ,
being do rigueur. Many have tried to
evade these rules , but 'commands' to
preach have not in these cases been re
peated. The queen likes and enjoys a
plain , practical discourse , seleoted from
the lessons or gospel of the day , to occu
py about 20 minutes in delivery. Ques
tions of the day , and , above all , poli
tics , must be entirely excluded. The
queen , when in residence at Windsor ,
was wont to attend scrvico at the beau
tiful St. George's chapel , but for some
years past divine service has been held
in the private chapel which communi
cates with her apartments. The suit
and servants sit in the body of the
chapel in order of precedence. The Sun
day service is at 12 o'clock , and consists
of morning prayer , antecommunion and
sermon. The queen's seat is slightly in
advance of the others and is still more
marked by the presence of a small table
to carry her books. On this is carved a
radiant sun , with the words , 'Heaven's
light our guide' the motto of the or
der of the Star of India. At Balmoral
the Princess Beatrice or a lady in wait
ing plays the organ , the singing being
led by soruo of the servants of the cas
tle. ' '
A Question of Streets.
A stranger to the city boarded a Co
lumbus avenue cable car as it was pass
ing the postoffioo and asked of the con
ductor :
"Do you go anywhere near 80 Seventh
street ? "
"I pass right by it , " replied the con
ductor.
"Please let me know when we get
there , " said the stranger as lie settled
himself behind his paper. •
When the car reached Twenty-third
street , the stranger looked up uneasily
and glanced appealiugly to the con
ductor. He said nothing , however , and
the car sped on up town as he turned
again to his reading. At Forty-second
street ho laid aside his paper and stared
steadily at the conductor from that
time until the car began to turn the
corner at Fifty-third street. Then he
got up , approached the conductor , and
asked in a confidential tone , "Aren't
we almost at Seventh street ? "
"Seventh street ! We passed that 20
minutes ago. You want Eighty-seventh
street. "
"Oh , no ! " mildly responded the
stranger , "I asked you for No. 80 Sev
enth street. "
The conductor pulled the bell rope.
"Take the next car down , "ho said
simply. New York Mail and Express.
She Wanted It Removed.
She was rather fussy and evidently
given to magnifying mole hills into
mountains , and when a man entered a
car in which she sat and leaned a gun
he was carrying against the door she
called , out :
"Oh , sir , won't you please point thai
gun the other way ? "
"There isn't the slightest danger ,
madam , " ho said. "I am used to guns. "
"Well , I'm not. It would go off in a
minute and kill everybody in the car ,
if anything struck the nozzle. "
"You- mean the muzzle , "said the
man , laughing.
"It's all the same by any name. Con
ductor , I wish you would ask men with
firearms to stand outside the car. "
"He says it isn't loaded , " answered
the conductor.
"What ! Not loaded ! Then stop the
car quick and let me out ! Good gra
cious , to think I've been riding all this
time in the same car with a gun that
wasn't loaded. Why , I might have been
killed 20 times ! " And she nearly fell off
in her haste to leave the car. Detroit
Free Press.
A Real Widow.
She was a dear old lady , always sweet
and bright , and now she has the reputa
tion of being a wit. She has been living
for a year or so in the thick of the
American colony in Paris , where , as
every one knows , there's as fine a col
lection of women whose husbands live
in America as there is on the continent
of Europe , which is saying a great deal.
She was speaking one day at an after
noon tea of a very lovely woman , over
whom she became quite enthusiastic.
"She's very young , " she'Said , as :
sort of climax , "but a widow ! " Then
added quickly , "With a real dead hus
band too ! " New York Herald.
Ocean Wave Power.
J. M. Dwyer , a San Francisco man ,
has invented and put in practical opera
tion a new method of utilizing the power
of ocean waves. His scheme is to anchor
at some distance from the shore a big
buoy supporting a strong mast. From
the top of the mast a wire rope runs to
the motor proper , erected on land and
consisting of a simple arrangement
whereby the intermittent pull of the
swaying mast raises a weight which
gives continuous motion to a heavy fly
wheel.
The Horse.
Dr. Romanes places the horse , in
point of intelligence , below the ass and
the elephant. The doctor says intense
fear in the horse corresponds to the
emotion of anger in man , and he char
acterizes it as a brief madness.

An Interview With Dr. Hartman.
A newspaper contributor was
lately admitted into the extensive
suite of offices which constitute the
headquarters of Dr. Hartman , who
treats catarrh patients by the thou
sand. Amid the busy swarm of
assistant doctors , clerks , stenog
raphers and book-keepers , Dr.
Hartman stopped long enough to
say a few words :
"The number of catarrh patients
who visit me is large , but the num
ber who are entered on my books
as regular patients ( but are treated
withoutcharge , by correspondence )
is very much larger. Hundreds
of letters are received and answered
free every day. A yet greater
multitude take my catarrh remedy ,
Pe-ru-na , and are cured , of whom
I never hear. Some of this latter
class write me years after their
cure. I never allow a name pub
lished except by the written con
sent of the patient. "We make no
charge at any time. The medi
cine only is obtained by each pa
tient at his own drug store. Those
desiring to become regular patients
have only to send address , duration
of disease aud treatment previous
ly received , and directions for first
month's treatment will be sent at
once.
"Over half the people have ca
tarrh in some form or another.
And yet probably not a tenth of
the people know that their disease
is catarrh. To distinguish catarrh
of various organs , it . has been
named very differently. One per
son has dyspepsia ; another bron
chitis ; another Bright's Disease ;
another liver complaint ; another
consumption ; another female com
plaint. These people would be
very much surprised to hear that
they are all suffering with chronic
catarrh. But it is so , nevertheless.
Each one of these troubles , and a
great many more , are simply ca
tarrh that is , chronic inflamma
tion of the mucous lining of which
ever organ is affected. Any in
ternal remedy that will cure ca
tarrh in one location will cure it in
any other location.- This is why
Pe-ru-na has become so justly fa
mous in the cure of catarrhal dis
eases. It cures catarrh wherever
located. Its cures remain. Pe-
ru-na does not palliate ; it cures" .
A catarrh book is sent free by
The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company , Columbus , Ohio. This
book contains 64 pages of reading
matter and instructive illustrations.

The stories of Ighting between Boera
• nd English in Sooth Africa hava a
strong resemblance to those of Indian
fighting in tha old days in New Eng
land. Bullets are exchanged between
excellent marksmen concealed behind
stones and bushes , and oaob bullet has ,
nnder such oiroumstanoes , an immense
value.
The Cape Mercury says that Mr.
Sampson , one of the Johannesburg "re
formers , " ia the hero of a famous com
bat with old Botha , a Boor fighter of re
nown. In the Boer war of 1881 Samp
son and Botha found themselves behind
stones on a level plain , shooting at eaoh
other. Sampson presently made Bare
that he had hit Botha and raised his
head a little , when a bullet plowed his
neok.
"My man is dead , "exolaimcd Botha ,
and exposed himself. At the same in
stant a bullet from Sampson's rifle
struck him.
"This time I've got him ! " shouted
Sampson , and raised himself up , but a
bullet grazed his side and bo dropped.
Botha now bad no doubt that he had
ended his antagonist , and jumped up on
his feet , only to be again laid low.
Though the mon were now past fight
ing , with two bad wounds apiece , both
recovered , and when Sampson settled
in the Transvaal they became great
friends and often chaffed each other
about this encounter.
Grant's Mother.
Hannah Simpson , the gentle wife ,
had no discoverable enemies. She was
almost universally beloved a3 a Chris
tian woman and faithful wife and moth
er. It took longer to know her , for she
was the most reticent of persons.
"Ulysses got his reticence , his patience ,
his equable temper from his mother , "
is the verdict of those who knew both
father and mother. Others go farther
and say , ' "Ho got his sense from his
mother. "
Hannah Simpson seems to have gath
ered up and carried forward to her son
Ulysses the best qualities of her people.
That she was a remarkable woman all
her neighbors bear testimony. She never
complained of any hardship or toil or
disappointment. She seldom laughed ,
and her son Ulysses once said , "I never
saw her shed a tear in my life. " She
was as proud of her family history as
her husband was of his , but she said
nothing about it. She never argued ,
never boasted and never gossiped of her
neighbors. Her husband bore testimony
to her high character in words well
ohosen , "Her steadiness and strength
of character have been the stay of the
family through life. " Her old neigh
bors call her "a noble woman. " Ham
lin Garland in McClure's.
Music That Iteaclies Out.
There is some recompense even in
pain that attends the living of colorless
j lives. There is a story of how a visitor
to Amsterdam , wishing to hear the
wonderful music of the chimes of St.
Nicholas , went up in the tower of the
church to hear it , and there he found a
man with wooden gloves on his hands
pounding the keyboard. It was all harsh
and discordant when heard so close by ,
yet all the while floating over the city
were strains of enchanting music. People
ple in their homes wera thrilled by
wonderful bell notes that fell from the
tower. So it is in life. There are many
sweet souls shut in to pain and sorrow
and others whose days are filled with
dull , monotonous labor , who little
dream of the music that reaches out
and touches with its sweetness other
lives ; music that comes from their pa
tient hammering away with wooden
gloves on noisy keys that seem all out
of tune. Surely sometime and some
where will come to all such so much of
sunshine , so smooth a path , that they
will forget all the past in a present
bliss. Philadelphia Times.

A Coliseum square belle is the pos
sessor of a distinctly remarkable sofa
pillow. It is stuffed with the whiskers ,
beards and mustaches of admirers whom
the fair one , under the pretense of test
ing their affection , enticed into shaving

cludes all colors , shades , lengths and

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and
let it stand twenty-four honrs ; a sediment or
settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is posi
tive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent
desire to urinate or pain in the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder
are out of order.
order.WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed , that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root , the
great kidney remedy fulfds every wish in re
lieving pain in the back , kindeys , liver , blad
der and every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and scalding
pain in passing it , or bad effects following use
of liquor , wine or beer , and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
get . up many times miring the night to urinate.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of the most . '
distressing cases. If you need a medicine you I
