A solid little fortune with shimmer:
ing silks, filmy laces and dainty lin-
gorie for its basis, the result of thirty
days spent in Dawson last summer, is
the modest boast of Mrs. Nellie
Humphrey, a pretty, black-eyed young
woman who has been in Seattle prepar-
ing for another trip into the metropolis
of the far north.
It was the quick wit, business sagac-
ity, and, last but not least, the pluck ol
Mrs. Humphrey that enabled the fair
sex of Dawson to revel again after
months of deprivation in the frills and
fancies of dress so dear to the femin-
ine heart. That masculine pocket-
books were quick to open in response
to such demands was evidenced by the
way in which Mrs. Humphrey's stock
in trade disappeared. It melted away
as did the snows in the arctic sun-
shine. Mrs. Humphrey says she Is
really ashamed to tell what her goods
brought her—that it would be ridicu-
lous. But it is a fact that her entire
capital risked on the one lucky venture
did not exceed $2,000. She sailed from
Seattle last Wednesday with a far larg-
er stock of the finest goods of the kind
is evidenced by the fact that she
she will stay in Dawson but
months, and intends tc bring bac

DR. TALMAGE'S SERMON.
THE EMINENT DIVINE'S SUNDAY
DISCOURSE.
Subject: “The Grandmothers’ —The Tnflu-
ence of Heredity—A Rich Legacy Left
Us by a Glorious Race of Godly Wome
en-—Value of Thelr Example.
Texr: “The unfeigned faith that is in
thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother
Lois," =I Tim. i, 5.
In this pastoral letter which Paul, the
old minister, is writing to Timothy, the
soung minister, the family record is
Drouin out. Paul practically says: “Tim.
othy, what a good grandmother you had!
You ought to be better than most folks, be-
cause not only was your mother good, but
your grandmother was good also. Two
preceding generations of piety ought to
give you a mighty push in the right direc-
tion.” The fact wus that Timothy needed
encouragement, He was in poor health,
having a weak stomach, and was a dys.
peptic, and Paul prescribed for him a
tonic, “a little wine for thy stomach’s
sake’ not much wine; but a little wice
and only as a medicine. And if the wine
then had been as much adulterated with
logwood and strychnine as our modern
wines, he would not have prescribed any.
But Timothy, not strong physically, Is
encouraged spiritually by the recital of
grandmotherly excellence, Paul hinting to
him, as I hint this day to you, that God
sometimes gathers up as in a reservoir,
away back of the active generations of to-
day, a godly influence, and then in re.

Good or bad influence may skip one gen-

sure to land in the third or fourth genera-
tion, just as the Ten Commandments,
speaking of the visitation of God on fam-
ilies, says nothing about the second gen-
eration, but entirely skips the seconds, and’
speaks of the third and fourth generation:
“Visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon
the third and fourth generation of them
that hate me.” Parental influence, right
and wrong, may jump over a generation,
but it will come down further on as sure as

God fill the earth and the heavens with
such grandmothers; we must some Jay go
up and thank these dear old souls.
God will let us go up and tell them of the
results of their influence, Among our frst
questions in Heaven will be, “Where is
grandmother?’ They will point her out,
for we would hardly know her, even if we
had seen her on earth, so bent over with
years once and there so straight, so {im of

and now her eye as clear as Heaven, so
agile with celestial health, the wrinkles
blooming into earnstion roses, and her

Make it as easy for the old folks as you

The trials of a musical accompanist
are many, if we may credit all the
stories told of them, A young profes-
sional recently played accompaniments
for the performers at a private enter-
tainment for a fashionable charity,
lasting for nearly two hours. “Here,
you see, 1 have no chance to take a
breath for ten bars,” sald the amateur
flute-player, indicating to the accom-
panist a passage in his opening solo.
“There are a number of such places in
my solo, and if you'll hurry the time
whenever you come to them, it will be
a relief to my wife, for all my family
are subject to apoplexy, and I've al-
ready had one slight attack.”
