dalous behavior which has made his
name a byword for years At one time

Monkey Skin Card Cases
Professor Garner is not the only man
who has found a new use for the mon
key The up-to-date jeweler is fully
equal in this respect The jeweler to
be sure has turned the monkey to dec
orative rather than philological ac
count but the service to the world at
large is still very great This is at
once apparent when it is stated that all
the newest card cases are of monkey
skin They are ornamented with an
applied decoration of enameled silver
patterned after the early spring flow
ers The blooms are life size and as
like the original as possible both in
form and color The effect is very pret
ty as the flowers lie upon their leather
background as gracefully as if a care
less hand had flung them there
One Multi Millionaires Wife
Mrs Krueger wife of President
Krueger of the Transvaal who is an
extremely lioniely woman does nearly
all her own housework cooking meals

When her husband has state guests
to dinner the good lady will trust the
task of waiting on the table to no one
and donning a white apron she per
forms the office of butler Her hus
band has a private fortune of 25000
000 but its Aunty Kruegers boast
that they live on their coffee money
a perquisite of 2000 a year allowed

Saved Money and Lost Credit
c An amusing incident occurred at a
fashionable wedding in this city One
jkfriendf who determined to save her
jnoney and credit at the same time
took a broken earring to a famous Jew
eler of State street and ordered the
little stone to be set as a scarf pin for
the groom As she eagerly remarked
It does me no good and coming from
such a famous establishment they are
sure to prize it and think I paid a lot
of money When the package was re
turned from the shop the wedding
guest failed to examine her proposed
present and merely dispatched it with
her card and compliments Imagine
her disgust when strolling through the
rooms where the bridal gifts were dis
played to find a dozen people about her
offering and each one smiling For a
moment she hesitated then pressed
forward and loJ there was the precious
white satin covered box bearing the
prized name it is true but alas below
From the repairing department and
even worse than all resting on the blue
cotton beside the pin was an old broken
bit of earring returned by the con
scientious firm Chicago Chronicle
Japs Reform Their Dress
The Empress of Japan has discarded
the picturesque costume of her coun
try Her majestys wardrobe is made
in Paris and she has a decided prefer
ence for tight fitting small waisted
gowns The royal example is followed
by the ladies of the court and state
functions no longer present their form
er polychromatic appearance It is a
curious coincidence that the discarded
Japanese costume combines all the
latest ideas on dress reform embodied
by its apostles here and in Europe

Fluffy bangs and even the coquet

A MUSCATINE WOMAN
After Great Annoyance from Sciatic
Rheumatiamt at Last Finds Relief
and To day Is Enjoyinjr Full Use of
Her Once Afflicted Limbs
From the Journal Muscatine Jotca
On the second floor of one of our neat
est business buildings located at No 125
West Front street is the home of Consta
ble and Mrs M C Briggs and it was
risked to day for the purpose of speaking
to Mrs Briggs on a question of considera
ble weight to her The reporter upon
calling found Mrs Briggs a little indis
posed not however with her former com
plaint but nevertheless in a very con
genial mood Upon inquiry as to the ben
efit she derived from the use of Dr Wil
liams Pink Pills for Pale People she
said
About eighteen months since I was
taken down with sciatic rheumatism in
my lower limbs especially my right leg
and so fierce was the attack that I could
not walk at all After trying various
remedies all without avail a lady neigh
bor of mine Mrs Jolin Yoder who I
think is now living in Eldon mentioned
Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and said she had used them for similar
trouble and had found them very benefi
cial I purchased a box of pills at F
Nesper Cos drug store and before I
had taken all of the first box I began to
feel much improved and the pain began to
ease I continued to take them buying
a second box and when I had nearly fin
ished the second box I was able to walk
about as ably as ever and have not had
an attack since
I heartily endorse Dr Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and feel confident
that anyone afflicted as I was could be
easily restored to their usual health by
their use
Dr Williams Pink Pills contain in a
condensed form all the elements neces
sary to give new life and richness to the
blood and restore shattered nerves They
are an unfailing specific for such diseases
as locomotor ataxia partial paralysis St
Vitus dance sciatica neuralgia rheuma
tism nervous headache the after effect
of la grippe palpitation of the heart pale
and sallow complexions all forms of
weakness either in male or female Pink

A PICTURE OF WEYLER
How the Butcher Looks to a Cor
respondent
Weyler says Elbert Rapplege the
well known newspaper correspondent
is one of those men who create a first
impression the first sight of whom
never can be effaced from the mind
by whose presence the most careless
observer is impressed instantly and
yet taken all together he is a man in
whom the elements of greatness are
concealed under a cloak of impenetra
ble obscurity Inferior physically un
soldierly in bearing exhibiting no taste
of refined sensibilities nor pleasure in
the gentle associations that others live
for or at least seek as diversions he is
nevertheless the embodiment of mental
acuteness crafty unscrupulous fear
less and of indomitable perseverance
Then Mr Rapplege proceeds to de
scribe the Butcher of Cuba as he ap
peared the first time he saw him
A little man An apparition of
blacks black eyes black hair black
beard dark exceedingly dark com
plexion a plain black attire black
shoes black tie a very dirty shirt and
soiled standing collar with no jewelry
and not a relief from the aspect of dark
ness anywhere on his person He was
alone and was standing facing the
door I entered He had taken a posi
tion in the very center of the room
and seemed lost in its immense depths
It is capable of holding 400 people Its
vast marble floor is vacant of furni
ture and its walls of great height
are covered with portraits larger than
life of the captains general of Cuba
during 120 years Voices echo in the
cavernous chamber and the ancient
personages looked down upon an in
vasion of their quarter almost as if
they too were receiving with the
living picture which will some day
hang among them It was like a stage
setting around this remarkable man
It is not remarkable that I mo
mentarily hesitated to make certain
that this was actually Weyler Doubt
was dispelled with a look at his face
His eyes far apart bright alert and
striking took me in at a glance His
face seemed to run to chin his lower
jaw protruding far beyond asy ordi
nary indication of firmness persist
ence or will power His forehead is
neither high nor receding neither is
it that of a thoughtful or philosophic
man His ears are set far back ana
what is called the region of intellect
in which are those mental attributes
that might be denned as powers of ob
servation calculation judgment and
execution is strongly developed The
conformation of his head however is
not one that is generally accepted as
an indication of any marked possession
of philoprogenitiveness or its kindred
emotions and inclinations His nose is
ncquiline bloodless and obtrusive
When he speaks it is with a high nasal
enunciation that is not disagreeable
because it is not prolonged and his
sentences justify every impression that
has already been formed of the man
They were short crisp emphatic and
expressive
A Thoughtful Wire
The young physician was tired when
he returned from his evenings calls
but as he settled back in his easy chair
and his pretty wife of only a month
or two took a seat beside him he ask
ed affectionately
And has my little wife been lonely
Oh no she said animatedly at
least not very Ive found something
to busy myself with
Indeed he said What is it
Oh Im organizing a class A lot
of young girls and married women are
in it and were exchanging experiences
and teaching each other how to cook
What do you do with the things
you cook he asked interestedly
Oh we send them to the neighbors
just to show what we can do Theres
one lodging house gets most of it Its
great Tun
Dear little woman he said lean
ing over and kissing her Always
thoughtful of your husbands practice
Always anxious to extend it Bangor
