A Young New York Lady Tells
of a Wonderful Cure: —
“ My trouble was with the ovaries,
I am tall, and the doctor said I graw
too fast for my strength. I suffered
dreadfully from inflammatios and
doctored continually, but ge no help.
I suffered from terrible dragging sen-
satiouns with the most awful pains low
down in the side and pafns in the back,
and the most agomizing headaches.
No one knows wha$ 1 endured. Often
I was sick to ths stomach, and every
little while I wnuld be too sick to go
to work, for three or four days; I work
in a large store, and I suppose stand
ing on m7 feet all day made me worse.

The Abuse of Soclety.
The abuse of society is s favorite
occupation with most people who can-
not force an entrance into it. It is
not even new. Cynics and satirists
preachers and writers have waged war
on social amenities all down the ages.
We know how Daniel denounced the
Babylonian court and how Horace re-
vealed the proftigacy of Augustan
Rome. Every leader of a regenerat-
ing movement, whether it be St. Ber-
nard exhorting the crusades, St. Fran.

Knox preaching reformation, has de-
nounced the easy morals and the easier
society. The reformers of every age de
nounce their own contemporaries in ac-
cents of varying degrees of violence

The grandmother of Ambrosine, hold-

tae face of Knox, exactly typify the at-
titude of all ages toward the Jeremiahs
hammering at the portals of society.
Engraving Glass With Gelatine.
A singular property of gelatine,
when spread upon glass, has lately been
experimented with by the French
chemist, Cailletet. When a thick layer
of strong glue that has been allowed to
dry upon a glass surface is detached, it
carries off scales of glass and leaves
designs resembling those of frost on
a window pane. Polished marble and
quartz are similarly affected. With
zlue containing six per cent. of alum
Cailletet produced five de-
signs, resembling moss in texture “he

The third wonder is Cold Wind Cave,

A forest that cannot be eradicated is

The fifth is the most wonderful of
all. It is the famous “floating stone.’
It stands, or seems to stand, in front
of the palace erected in its honor. It
is an irregular cube of great bulk. It
appears to be resting on the ground,
free from supports on sides, but,
strange to say, two men at opposite
ends of a rope may pass it under the
