The Most Fatal Disease.
Diseases of the kidneys cause more
deaths than any other one class of dis
eases. Most people who have kidney
diseases do not know (hey have it. The
first symptons are either not uoticed
or mistaken for something else.
This is why insurance companies always
require a strict analysis of urine before
granting insurance. Thompson's Bar
asma will at once relieve any conjestion
or inflauiation of the kidneys and has
made remarkable cures in Bright's disease,
sciatica and all diseases of the kidneys
and liver. Pleasant to take. For sale

Bride* Priced.
To us It seems a curious whim on the
part of our ancestors of the eighteenth
century that in their marriage an
nouncements they should so often
choose and with such seeming compla
cency to enlighten the world with re
gard to the amount of fortune received
with the brides. Here are two cases in
point: "Mr. James Coutts of Jeffry's
Sq., merchant, to Miss Peagrum of
Knightsbridge, £30,000." "W. Smith,
gentleman, of the 2d Troop of Horse
Guards, to Mrs. Ann Gardiner, a maid
en lady, aged, 'tis said, near 70, with a
fortune of £20,000." —Chambers' Jour
nal.
Webster's Tiresome Habit.
Senator Hoar in his "Reminiscences"
says that Daniel Webster had a tire
some habit in his public speeches of
groping after the most suitable word
after this fashion: "Why is it, Mr.
Chairman, that there has gathered,
congregated; this great number of in
habitants, dwellers, here; that these
roads, avenues, routes of travel, high
ways, converge, meet, come together
here?" When tlie speech was printed
all the synonyms but the best one
would bo left out.
The Streets of Amsterdam.
Amsterdam, in Holland, a <yty of ten
miles in <ir<u inference, is mostly built
on piles driven into the sandy subsoil,
but the flowing of the tide and the
debris of the Ainstel river have made
ninety islands, and the city has more
canals than streets. The watery ways
are traversed by over .'SOO bridges, so
that Amsterdam has earned the desig
nation of the Venice of the North.

Mr. Skrap—There's Just this about it.
It is impossible for us to live together
and not quarrel.
Mrs. Skrap—There is no possibility
of our quarreling if neither of us speaks.
Mr. Skrap—-Of course; but, as I say,
it isn't possible for us to live together
find not quarrel.—Philadelphia Press.

There has been no change In Indian
women's dresH for 4,000 years. All

a yard and a quarter wide, ten, twenty,
thirty yards long. It is arranged on

and round, and the richest end, if em
broidered or woven with gold. Anally

simple cotton cloth; of silk, plain in de
sign, woven with golden threads; solid
with embroidery, strung with pearls,
or of kincob, the royal cloth of gold.
Some cost thousands of rupees. No
pin, hook, button or string, the gar
ment is formed on the architecture of
the body, and takes its expression and
nobility from its perfect harmony with
the lines of the human form. And

The Oak.
England won her supremacy on the
seas with her ships of British oak, a
wood that is renowned for strength
and durability. When the Spanish ar
mada set sail for England its com
mander had express orders from the
king of Spain to burn or otherwise de
stroy every oak in the forest of Dean,
then the great source of shipbuilding
supplies. But, as blunt old Drake
prophesied, Philip's beard was singed
instead. Admiral Nelson declared that
without "heart of oak" the British
navy and empire would soon come to
an end.
The oak Is beautiful at all seasons.
From the time it opens its delicate
green buds, close pressed in their resin
ous overcoat, and emerging flame tip
ped with bronze or crimson, until they
come again an acorn bearing spray is
most artistic, and the ruddy hue of the
tree in autumn combines well in na
ture's color scheme.
One Sided Sport.
A London paper tells a story of a
certain shortsighted sportsman. He
was asked one morning by a fellow so
journer in a small hotel on the shores
of Loch Carron what sport he had had.
"Just seen a seal," he said. "Shot at
it three times and missed It each time."
At dinner, an hour later, he sat next to
a man with a bandage round his head.
"Accident?" he Inquired. "Accident!"
was the indignant response. "Attempt
ed murder, you mean. I was having
a bath about an hour ago when some
lunatic fired at me three times from
the shore and shot part of my ear off."
"Wonder who it could have been!"
murmured the sportsman, and then he
changed the conversation.
A Story of Storey.
An English paper tells a little anec
dote of the distinguished painter Sto
rey in his capacity of teacher of per
spective at the lioyal academy: On one
occasion Mr. Storey accepted an invita
tion to dine with the wealthy—and
Philistine—father of one of his pupils.
Over the undeniable port the by no
moans doting parent inquired how his
son was getting on, and, although the
kindliest of men, Mr. Storey could not
bring himself to say much that was
favorable. "Humph!" grunted the man
of money. "Well, I hope he will turn
out an artist, for I am quite sure he's
not fit to be anything else."
Preaenta In Japan,
The foreigner should beware of mak
ing presents to any Japanese girl un
less he is bent upon matrimony. To
present her with any sort of a gift,
even though it be only a posy, will be
regarded as a proposal of marriage,
and to accept the present, though not
a word of love or matrimony be pass
ed, is a sign that she accepts you. Gal
lant Americans have got into serious
trouble and found it necessary to leave
the country at night to escape a bind
ing engagement which they thought
lessly incurred by giving to a maiden
some trifle.
To Miike a Seldlttz Powder.
To make a seidlitz powder mix to
gether two drams of rochelle salts and
two scruples of bicarbonate of soda;
put these into a blue paper and put
thirty-five grains of tartaric acid into
n white paper. To use put each into
different glasses and quarter fill with
water, then pour both together and
drink at once while in a state of ef
fervescence.
To Make lied Ink.
lied ink is easily, made by amateurs
who follow this recipe: Get a one ounce
bottle and see that it is perfectly clean
and dry. Place in it one teaspoonful
of aqua ammonia, gum arabic the size
of two peas, and add six grains of car
mine. Fill up the bottle with c!#ar
soft water, and after standing a lltrte
while it will be fit for use.
An Obstinate Family.
Cholmondley—l thought you intend
ed to marry Miss Wealthington? Dol
mondley—l thought so, too; but her
family objected. Cholmondley—What
did Miss Wealthington say? Doimond
ley—Oh, she's one o* the family, you
know.
'l'lll I! UN He linen'.
His Wife—Why don't you goto the
doctor and find out juyt what you
ought to eat and what you ought to
avoid? Dyspeptic—Oh, I know all that
now! I ought to eat everything I
don't like and avoid everything I do.
JriMt the Kereme,
Stranger (to highlander in full uni
