IKON HALL.
Several Changes for the Menaflt of the
Order.
IxDiANArnu. Ind., Aug. 4. The su
preme sitting of the Onler of the Iron
Hall bns acted on the report of the com
mittee on law. Several changes were
made in the constitution of the onler. The
section governing the meeting of the su

it imperative that the sitting meet once
every two years. Under the old rule the
sitting did not meet unless the supreme
justice called it together. The supreme
justice still has power to call a special
meeting at any time. A change wa also
made in the section governing the deposit
of funds of the order. By the change
each district is to have a depository. The
constitution waa further changed so aa to
place women on an equal footing with
men in the order. A resolution expressing
confidence in the present supreme officers
of the order waa passed.
A Girl'i Quiet Pleasure.
Some of the most delightful pleas-
ores m mil worki are me quiet ones,
I think you will find that the lone
dreamy days need something in them
beside the outdoor pleasures, writes
Ruth Ash more in a pleasant article
on "A Oirls Summer Enjoyments" in
tne August isCHtis Home Journal.
Get a lot of comfortable chairs around
in a shady corner of the piazza, hunt
up a clever short story and let first
one and then another take their turns
in reading, or else let somebody who
is a morougniy good reader devote his
or her time to it. Then talk about it
Sometimes the simplest story will
bring up the most curious questions.
and bring forth the greatest amount of
knowledge. I heard a Southern story
read the other day, and the people
who had Deen listening to it began to
talk about the curious customs of the
negroes, of the voodoo charms to be
bought at the French market in New
Orleans : then they drifted around to
the magic ot India, and a man who
had been there went and got bis curios
tor us an to look at ; suddenly the dinner-bell
ranz, and it was discovered
that that story had kept an entire
party of twenty one out of mischief,
away from go&sip, made them travel
pretty much over the world, and had
used up very successfully a summer
morning that began at half -past eight
and ended at quarter of two. You
see girls and boys only want to be
given the cue in the right direction
and they will do what is right, but
starting wrong, starting out with the
idea that they don't care for anybody,
that what they do is right and it is no
bady's business, fcimply results in
heartaches, in bitterness, and too often
in very deep sorrow.

Allison's Opinion.
Chicago, Aug. ".Senator W. B.
Allison, ot Iowa, does not believe in free
coinage of silver and favor the suspen
sion of the purchase clause of the Sherman
Act. "I do not approve ' he said, "of the
repeal ot the entire Act tor it leaves the
Government in possession of a vast quan
tity of silver bullion with no method ot
disposing of it. I believe the people de
sire only the stoppage of the purchase of
more silver, and not the disuse of that al
ready purchased. 1

"The duke of Veragua a few days
ago," says a widely traveled American,
"was regarded as rich. He had a com
fortable income and a large estate. It
is not true that he gambled his money
away at cards or other games ot chance.
He lost his fortune at the Paris expo
sition of 1889. He opened an arena
near the exposition grounds and made
preparations to give real Spanish bull
fights on an elaborate scale. At first
it drew fairly well, but after the first
week he did not take in enough to
pay half his expenses. The result was
when the exposition closed the duke
found himself practically a bankrupt
Having lost his fortune at one exposi
tion I suppose it is only natural that
hp should endeavor to recoup himself
at another."

musically voiced of animals.
Mrs. S. jr. White
Tells of a family blessing.
Thus she writes to Mrs.
Pinkham :
" I suffered for 10 Years with
female complaints 01 the worst
form, accompa
nied by severe
spinal trouble,
causing inces
sant backache,
weakness of the
stomach, and
nervousness.
" I gave up
all hooe of ever
being well again. Just then I
began to take :
" Lydia E. Pinklam's Vege
table Compound. I followed
your directions and treatment
until I am now a perfectly
well woman.
" I gave it to my two daugh
ters, aged 14 and 16 years, and
they are fine, healthy girls.
