LOVE IN TOWN:
They had no parting In Ilia wood,
. No meeting In ie lonely lane;
' Beside The sea they never stood,
Nor wutrhed the sunset after rain.
Th.-tr pathway was the busy Btreet,
Their trys'Uiff place the otfloe stair
And yet 1 know Joy more complete
lld never visit mortal pair.
And why should rustic love alone
Be decked with all p,oetlo art?
These dull. array city walks have known
The beutliiK of a nation's heart.
The weary worker, come and go.
The secret of each soul is dumb;
Yet ftlll at times ai rtuliunt slow
Across t'heir way worn lives may come.
And these, mv happy lovers, knew
Hard toil, email wam and humble fare;
The skies they taw were never Dluts
But love made gladness everywhere.
Ills i top upon the oltice floor
Was sweet to her as robin's son?;
Her face, that passed the open door,
For him made sunshine all day lontr.

"liet us," pleads ''Amber." "give over
dubs for awliile, and start a training
chool for mothers. We do not need
anything so much in the world as pood
mothers. (As well expect the house
keeper to turn out a batch of good
cookies, she makes them of sawdust
and alum, to expect the children to
develop Into good citizens without 'the
right sort of mothers. The right eort
of mother knows where iter boy la all
day king. She spends her time enter
taining him. rather than entertaining
ohallow-lheisded callers from everlasting
to everlasting. .She tells him stories,
reads to him, and picks out tunes with
him on the piano. She Is "chummy"
with him, too, and has his complete
confidence. She doesn't allow her girls
to go to the depot 'to see the trains
come In, nor does she permit them to
spend nights away from the guardian
ship of their homes. She Is watchful
at the same time that she Is kind, lov
ing always, but never languid In the
performance of those duties which the
vast responsibility of motherhood has
laid upon her. Give us better mothers
and the world will soon be full of bet-,
ter men and women."

"I have often ''wondered," muses
"Amber," in another .ptace, "how Chris

congenial, or of good family and estab

command on general tprinclples. I
don't pretend to be good enough to obey
the mandate myself, for I honestly
think U Js a species of hypocrisy to say
you love everybody. One might as well
say one were fond of all fruit alike,
whether specked, wormy or rotten. But

A FOREIGN ALLIANCE:
He contemplated her fixedly, and when
he spoke ithere was a thrill of pity in his
voice.
"ily hand is yours," he faltered, "but
my heart is another's."
His American wife waved her fan lan
guidly. "I'll buy or sell," she rejoined.
Pressing his hand to his brow His Grace

meanwhile to collect a few thoughts. De

' Some time ago t was asserted, as the I
Pi'ttsburg Dispatch reminds us, that
the bicycling rage had diverted Invest
ments In diamonds to those made in the
wheels. Previous to that it had been
asserted that iblcycling was reducing
. the retail liquor trade to Innocuous de
suetude; while It was with equal posl
tiveness declared that the cigar trade
was languishing from the same reason.
The bicycle enthusiasts have also
claimed that their favorite machine
would turn the horse into an extinct
pedes, and It has been claimed that
the electric and steam railroads, may
In the future be compelled to give their
exclusive attention to through traffic
and heavy freight. These revolution
ary results have been predicted in favor
of the machine, but now comes an
enemy of the wheel with the assertion
' Dhat bicycling exerts an adverse In
fluence on matrimony, with a permis
sible deduotton that it the riding of
lira wheel becomes universal matri
mony and the horse will go out of existence-altogether.
This Is a dreadful
assertion. As matrimony Is an Indis
pensable preliminary to the existence
of the next generation the result pre
dicted is opposed to the Interests not
only of the human race, but of bicy
cling. If there were to 'be no next gener
ation there could be no bicycling, and
the whole bicycle Interest from factor
ies to amateur scorchers would have
to shut up. If the bicycle Is going to
Impair the statistical average of mat
rimony, It will react on the bicycle as
severely as on the rest of the social or
ganisation. ENCOURAGING:""""
Marie Did you tell your friend,' Miss
Van Puff, of our engagement?
Osbourne Yes.
Marie What did she say?
Osbourne Oh, she said I had her sym
pathy. Brooklyn Eagle.
But the answer to this dreadful Idea
Is clearly the same as that which solved
the famous puzzle, why a fish put into
pall brimful of water does not cause
the water to overflow. It Is not so,
Indeed, It Is safe to assert that the bi
cycle Is an Incentive and preparatory
chool to matrimony. A man who has
mastered the wheel can feel that he
has some knowledge of the way to deal
with the vagaries of the female mind.
One who has taught a young woman to
ride will summon the courage to pro
pose, which he never could have found
on foot- or on horseback. When all so
ciety rides the wheel It will be recog
nized as an Invention for the promotion
of matrimony mora romantic than ball
rooms and more rapid than lovers'
walks. The wheel and matrimony will
poll on together, wKh the acceleratloi
of speed of which the blc-ss as well
as the age are typical. There may be
headers and divorces, but the bicycle,
while it m-,y revolutionize many things,
will not change human nature, nor re
duce the temperature of young blood
to that of Iced milk.

An attractive and appetizing way of

HEALTH HINTS:
Where It Is desirable to see the tontrue
of a very small child, the-object may be
accomplished by touching the upper lip
with a bit of sweet oil, which will cause
the child to urotrude Its tonitue.
If you have to sew all day, change your
seat occasionally, aim no ootaiu rest.
Kathlnx the face and nanrts will also sum

the back, allowing every muscle to relax,
letting the hands go any way they will,
und keep the eye closed. The eyes should
be bathed every night In cc!d water Just
before retiring, and thy will do better
work the following day.
To keep the hands white, wash them In
a sort of gruel of starch and oatmeal,
made by bolllnir equal quantities of the in

Many vocal authorities maintain that
the voice is Ki'eatly affected by diet, and
Dr. Pegg, who was once an associate of
Liszt, expresses a strong contlrmstlon of
this view. Where lith is the chief artl; lu
of food, fine vocalists are scarce, and tho
voice in ordinary speech lack t delicacy of

that the most desirable food lor singers is

malt liquors give strength to the voice, al
though they may stimulate It for a fhort

upon as Injurious to the voice, though If

- The eubj?cit Professor Barnes worked
with last wight was a boy, say of 16
years. He is bi'lght, although he doesn't
look it particularly. It may .be that he
was a too willing subject, with a mind
completely under control of Professor
Barm' slightest mental wish.
Tho Kxperimums Begin.
Muny experiments were given. The
boy was asked his name, .
"Lelghton."
"Sure, now y'ou know your name?"
"Oh, yes, sir."
A few passes of the professor's hands
and:
"Do you know your name, upw?"
A pitiful negative shake of the head
was all the reply.
"Isn't it Jones?" '
"Oh, yes." said the subject, brightly,
the blank look on his face fading away
and a look of absolute confidence taking
its place. When he was relieved of the
inlluunce he was asked;
"Your name Is ?"
"Lelghton."
"Sure? Isn't it Jones?"
"Oh, no, Blr; it's Lelghton."
One of the reporters was introduced
to the subject as Grover Cleveland. This
wbb funny. The newspaper man Is thin;
very thin. The boy gazed at him and
then thrust out his hand with a cheery,
bold:
"Oh, hello, there!"
"Hello," responded fMr. Reporter
Cleveland.
"How's your health?" queried! the
oy.
"Oh, I'm losing flesh," said the re
porMeI sauly whereat a young woman
smiled very loudly and the rest of the
small audience smiled silently.
Another reporter who had whiskers
was Introduced as ex-President Harri
son. "po you recognize him?" asked the
professor.
"Oh. yes, sir. Yes, sir."
"Did you ever see Mr. Harrison?"
asked the reporter. .
"No, sir."
"How did you recognize him?"
I ve seen pictures of him," said the
boy.
It sounded odd to hear him say "pic
tures of him." when It would have
sounded better to say "of you" for he
was talkilng to the pseudo Mr. Harri
son, The subject was then put through
various other experiments, such as klll
nl.f nakp' represented by a cane,
fighting It with cries of horror; brush
ing awny files; riding a chair, supposed
to lie a bicycle.
Tho Most Interesting Tests.
The last two experiments were the
most Interesting. One absolutely proved
tne entire power exercised by Pro
fessor Harnes over his subject. It was
the anesthesia test..
The subject was hypnotized, and by
suggestion all sense of feeling was re
moved from the left forearm.
Then the bypnotiist thrust a hat pin
through the flesh. There was Tjut the
Rlishtest nervous twitch In response to
the puncturing. The test was unques
tionably honest.
The other test showed the apparent
too-wllllngness of the subject. The
question regarding the subject being
under the influence Is not raised, for
hypnotism is a mystery yet even to the
most actue Bclnntlfic mlnd. A subject
may not be wholly under control, but
be forced by the evident
of the hypnotist to simulate the condi
tion ne is ordered to. This is not fak
ing; it Is nut confederacy.

A test was made for reflx action In

at all, at any time, may be said with a
great deal of certainty.
The experiments, with this one ex
ception, were successful. The boy was

Men of Prominence
In Eiurope Joust Now.
The Phenomenal
Barney Barnato,
London, Oct. B. The man most talked
of in London today is not Mr. BaJfour
or Sir Henry Irving or Lord Dunraven
returning from his fluke, but a gentle
man of Hebraic persuasion, perhaps
little heard of on the other aide of the
Atlantic, who Is known as Mr. Barnato
to the stalder newspapers and as
"Barney" Barnato to the Stock Ex
change, the union journals and the
English pulbllc.
Fortunes made In a day are not as
common in Kngland as they are in
America. The opportunities are not as
large. The rules of the game are more
strict. Some of the practices which
gain favor In Wall street would hardly
stand the test of strict. surveillance by
the governing commit' tee of the London
Stock Exchange. So the English public
looks with amazement, alarm. Indigna
tion or admiration, as the spirit moves
It, at the comparatively young man,
who, in a few months, has piled-up a
fortune variously estimated at from
$25,000,000 to 1100,000,000.
Barnato's past Is a matter of consid
erable mystery and many vague and
not uninteresting stories are afloat con
cerning It. lie Is said to have been a
barber, a bagman, a broker's clerk, a
messenger. It is asserted upon some
sides that he made a fortune dealing In
African diamonds and on tho other that
when he entered the speculative field
In London he was practically penniless.
Much In Kvldonco Now.
Whatever "his remote past and pedi
gree, his immediate career is not for
bidden to curious eyes. About a year
ago, when the London market was lag
ging, principally because of a perfectly
natural suspicion of "Yankee rails,"
there came reports of Increased yields
of gold In the South African gold fields.
Simultaneously with these was the an
nouncement of the formation of com
panies to develop new mines, and in
less than a month trade In "Kaffirs"
became the most exciting feature of
speculation and the "Kaffir circus" the
talk of speculators far and wide.
That there was little foundation for
the craze was admitted even then. It
is still admitted, although the craze
rages with all its original force and
millions ot dollars' worth of Kaffir
shares are traded In daily. But the
gambling fever is always unaccount
able. It seized not only the alleged
"professional," but it invaded the heart
of the British public. Protests were
useless. The Times and the conserva
tive journals Inveighed against the
"senseless rage" of the gamblers, but
with no more effect than the conserva
tives of John Law's time had on the
victims of the "South Sea bubble."
Appears on the Scene.
It -was at this etage that "Barney"
appeared. 'He Is a young man, prob
ably well on the right side of 40. iho
was unknown ana unheard or. He
plunged heavily In pure speculation and
made enormous winnings. Then he
branched out and formed a company
under the name of the "Johannesburg
Consolidated Investment company,"
with a capitalization of something like
13.000,000. It was enormously success
ful. Other great denls followed, and
presently the "Barney shares" and the
Barney groups became the chief topic
of Interest to ock dealers. His ma
nipulation of these properties and their
shares .In the market would fill the soul
of the late Jay Gould with envy.
All this time he had been subjected to
the shafts of the older hands and to the
heavy sarcasms of the (London Times.
ILately that newspaper .was obliged to
confess that .there are many thousands
of Englishmen who place Implicit confi
dence In the honesty and ability of
"Barney." Still there 19 a note of sus
picion in all the Times' comments that
the substructure upon which "Barney"
operations are conducted Is unsteady,
and that some day the whole edifice
may collapse and .bring ruin upon
countless thousands.
Has Won the Papers.
The less Important Journals, end
those imore particularly which make a
specialty of financial matters, give
"Barney" their most enthusiastic ap
preciation. (And indeed, if superficial
considerations count for anything, they
are warranted In this. (He carries all
the appearances of great wealth. Jte
cently he established the Barnato bank,
capitalized' at 12,o00,00n. It wns an
nounced that an itne snares would ine
taken by the iBarnato brothers: that
."),000,000 worth would be reserved, and
that a "limited number' would 'be sold.
The trading in these shares developed
one of the moat exciting scenes ever
witnessed on the London market. For
a time there was an almost indescrib
able frenzy, and the shares were bid

pain would commence in my head, after
which it would seem te pass down my
body and settle in my back, my sides
ached, my back aelyd, and I had a feeling
of great distress In the bowels. The in
creased pain which seemed to come from
lying down, would be almost unbearable,
my face and stomach would bloat up and I
could hardly stand on my feet, dlzslness
made it almost Impossible; this feeling
wns alwnys with me even after the vio
lence of the attack passed over. The last
attack I had was the worst, and was so
bad I would not have been able to tell this
story but for Bonn's Kidney Pills. As
soon as I commenced their use I found Im
mediate relief. The pain In my back and
sides left me and the dizziness went with
It; the bloating In my face and body disap
peared and all dlitress In my bowels was
gone. I Have great faith In Donn's Kid

deal more for me than all the plasters and
medicines which I had resorted to In seek
ing relief and cure. I hope always to be
able to procure them."

confidence of the public is well attested
by the fact that they are still quoted
at over three times their face.
"Barney" Is building an enormous
palace In Park lane, which will be dec
orated by great artists. While this is
building he lives in Earl Spencer's town
house, where this East Ender ex-ol' do'
man, or whatever he was, flourishes in
an atmosphere lately consecrated by
the presence of Poyntzes and Seymours.
"Men with half a continent for sale,
ladies with a little choice lace, gentle
men who write plays and friends who
want to see how he feels after 'last
night' engage in friendly rivalry for
precedence; while 'Barney, In a velvet

exercise and gives uVIrs. Barnato good

Extent of the Kaffir Craze.
The extent of the "Kaffir craze" may
be Imagined from the fact that the
shares of upward of 450 mining and
land companies are regularly traded in.
The newspapers are full of glowing
prospectuses of new companies in Afri
ca and Australia "The Great Talunga
Gold Mine." "The Eagle's Nest," "The
Aladdin's Lamp," "The Royal Sheba."
"The Big Golden Quarry" reminding
one forcibly of old times In California.
The craze rages not alone in London.
It has attacked Paris and Berlin as well
and enormous fortunes have been made
or lost by It. But the biggest fortune
Is "Barney's," and "Barney" is the cen
ter of mining speculation and the "King
of the Kalllrs."
