who stand as living testimonials to the new

Mrs. Pi.iinski. a widow lady who lives with
her father. Christ Steltzer, in a pleasant home
jut beyond Gowanda.
BelieVine her experience would prove of
wide interest amoDg women, a reporter railed
at her house.
Seat-i in the cosy little parlor, furnished in
true country style, Mrs. Polinski told the re
porter her story.
I am nM a sick woman as yon can readily
aee," she said, and I never have leen. I do
not like newspaper notoriety and have never
had my name in the papers lefore. I would
certainly not say a word this time, but I think
it is my duty to tell women what I have
found.
" I used to be troubled with frequent bead
aches. Tney were not serious I think they
must have been neuralgia but they were
just bad enough to. make it decidedly un
pleasant for me. I was able to work, but in
a sort of a listless fashion.
" I heard of Pink Pills made bv the Dr.
William' Company and was persuaded to try
them. I did so and now all is changed. I
have not had a headache in manv months and
have such faith in the pills that t do not think
I ever will again. They did me a world of

CLAY DISAPPOINTED.
HIS DEFEAT FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL
NOMINATION IN 1839.
Th Fart Takes by Thnrlow Weed and
Botsm Ore ley A Plot Admitted Bow
tb SewaAor Kctied th ws of tb
CeaveattloBi's Actios.
The Whig convention of 1839 was
held in a new Lutheran church in Har
risbnrg, and it is a safe assumption that
never before or since has a house of God
been made the scene of so much and so
adroit political maneuvering as went
on there for the purpose of preventing
the nomination of Henry Clay for the
presidency. The chief manipulator was
Thurlow Weed, who appeared there aa
the friend of Governor Seward, and the
future member of the powerful firm of
Seward, Weed & Greeley. This firm
was .indeed the outcome of the ensu
ing campaign. Greeley was at the con
vention, little dreaming that the cam
paign which was to follow would give
him the opportunity for developing the
qualities which were to make hiia the
first editor of his time and lead to the
foundation of a great newspajxr to be
forever linked iudissolubly with his
name, Weed went into convent ion with
the determination of defeating Clay, lie
says in his autobiography that he
had had the New York delegation in
structed for Scott to keep it from Clay,
his real candidate being Harrison.
He entered into au agreement with
friends of Wefster, ou the way to Ifar
risburg from New York city, to act to
geter for Clay's defeat. "Webster was iu
Europe at the time and bad sent word
to his friends declining to lie a candi
date, primarily because of Weed's re
fusal to support him. After detailing
these facts Mr. Weed goes on to say that,
on reaching Harrisburg, "wo found a
decided plurality in favorof Mr. Clay,"
but that, "in the opinion of the tlele
pates from Pennsylvania and New York,
Mr. Clay could not carry either of those
states, and without them he could not
be elected."
Weed admits a bargain in favor of
Harrison with the friouds Loth of Web
ster aud of tJ.ott, and pays the "fiual
vote was intentionally delayed by the
friends of the stronger candidate (Har
rison) for 24 hours" in order to plaeato
the angry friends of Clay, "whose disr
appointment and vesatiou fouud excited
expression."
Greeley makes frauk admission iu
his "Recollections of a Busy Life" as to
the plot by saying that the parties to
it. chiefly Weed, "judged that he (Clay)
could not be chtscu, if nominated.
while another cou'd bo, and acted ac
cordingly," adding, 'lf politics do not
meditate the achievement of beneficent
ends through the choice and uso of the
safest and most effective means, I whol
ly misapprehend them."
This somewhat Jesuitical view did
not strike Clay and his friends as an
adequate justification of the methods by
which au admitted majority of the con
veution had been prevented from ex
pressing its wilL John Tyler of v ir
giuia. one of Clay's moot ardent friends
iu the convention, was so overcome with
grief ut Harrison's nomination that he
shed tears, and after several unavailing
efforts to get some one else to take the
nomination for vice president Tyler
was named for it, his tears having con
vinced the convention that the placing
of so devoted a friend t-f Clay on the
ticket would go far to heal the wounds
that the methods of the convention had
caused.
Clay's rage at tho outcome was un
bounded. He had been assuming iu the
senate a lofty indifference to tlie presi
dency, his famous saying, "I would
rather be right than be president, "hav
ing been made public only a short time
before the convent iou met. There was
nobody ia the senate at that time of suf
ficiently nimble wit to think of the bit
ing retort which Speaker Heed many
years later niad to a congressman who
for the thousandth time was strutting
about in Clay's cant off garmeuts:
"Don t give yourself the slightest un
easiness. You'll never be either. " But
Clav had given himself great uneaai'
uess, for he was most desirous of the
nomination, ne had been a candidate
eight years earlier, when be had no
chance of election, and he believed firm
ly now that if nominated he could be
elected.
When the news from Harrisburg
reached him in Washington, he lost all
control of himself. "He had been drink
ing heavily iu the excitement of expec
tation, " says Henry A. Wise, who was
with him. "He rose from hu chair.
and, walking backward and forward
rapidly, lifting his feet like a horse
stringhalted in both legs, stamped his
boots upou the floor, exclaiming: My
friends are not worth the powder aud
shot it would take to kill them. It is a
diabolical iutrigue. I know now, which
has betrayed me. I am the most unfor
tunate man iu the history of parties
always run by my friends when sure to
be defeated, and now betrayed for a
nomination when I or any one would be
pure of au election. " "Humor aud

LITTLE CUT AMBER NOW.
A Pip Mouthpiece Thrw Inches Long
Worth From SIS to mis.
"la that real amber?" at-ked the man
as he held up a pipe before the dealer.
The pipe was a handsome brier wood oue.
and it had a clear amber mouthpiece
nearly three inches long. The price mark
was f3.50.
"Yes, it's real amber," said the deal
er. "That is, it's as real as any amber
you can get nowadays in a pipe. It is
not cut from a piece of amber, but ia
made by a melting process. Ninety per
cent of that mouthpiece is amber. The
other 10 percent is a composition used
to harden it and make it stick together.
Some years ago amber was plenty, and
a pipe like that would have a mouth
piece cf auiber cut from a block and nev
er melted. Bat tho umber mines have
practical? given out, and yon can't get
any lucre big pieces. A piece of cut am

there would bo worth from fl2tofI5,
aud it wouldn't be a Lit better than the
manufactured amber. It wouldn't be so
dnraMti and would not feel any better
between the teeth."
"I was in England a year ago," said
a man who had listened to the conver
sation, "aud one of the largest pip
manufacturers there said that there bad
not been a piece of amber as long as
three inches in the market for five
years. "
"That's so," said the pipe seller.
" You may get a pipe with a genuine cut
amber mouthpiece in some stores in
New Yoik, but if you look up its record
you will find it was made eight or ten
years ago and has been in stock. This
couipoiitiun is used today in expensive

The conclusion applied by Mr. Charles
Booth to the whole body of workers
thnt "in one way or another e-ffective
working lifo is ten years longer in the
country than in the town" has an impor
tant significance when we remember
that each decennial census shows a
growing proportion of workers subject
to the conditions of town life. Con

Births and Deaths.
A statistician who has leen interest
ing himself in the population of the
earth says that 3,214,000 die annually;
that is, an average of t,40 a day, 40J0
an hour and 07 a minute. The annual
number of births on the other hand is
estimated at 3C,7yi,000, au average of
100.SO0 a day, 4,13X1 an hour, and 70 a
minute, so that the population . is in
creasing at the rate of three to the
minute.
How the Heart Rests.
When one is lying down the heart
makes about 10 strokes less a minute
than when one is upright. That means a
saving of (U0 strokes per hour, or about
5000 heart leats during the eight hours
spent in bed. The heart pumps six
ounces of blood with each beat. It
therefore lifts 30,000 ounces less of blood
in a night of eight hours spent in bed
than when one is in. an upright posi
tion. The blood flows just so much the
more slowly through the veins when
one is lying down, therefore one has to
use extra coverii'rr to supply the
warmth usually furnished by circula
tion.
The First Amencan Dentist.
The art of dentistry was introduced
into New York by John Greenwood in
1788. He is said to have made the first
artificial teeth ever manufactured in
this count ry.
