IO *-rT v ' m • determination

city or town bred man whg has all his life
humped his back over a desk, living an
unhealthy, sedentary life and failed to take
any care of his health, could not stay on
the back of one of these vicious brutes for
more than three jumps.
It takes a whole man to conquer a vicious
animal. People may talk about intellectual
superiority and re6nement and good breed
ing. but every man takes off his Jjat to
physical strength and endurance. While
the man who leads a sedentary life cannot
hope, in this respect, to rival these sturdy
men of the plains, they can be sound, vig
orous, healthy men if they will. It is a
matter of care of health while one has it,
and the proper measures to restore it when
it is lost. Most diseases begin with some
trouble of the digestive organs or of the
liver. Troubles of this nature starve the
body, because they prevent it from receiv
ing its proper supply of nourishment. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery gives a
man an appetite like a cow-boy's and the
digestion of an ostrich. Its great work is
upon the stomach, large intestines and liver.
These are the organs nourish a man's
body. This medicine makes them strong,
vigorous aud healthy. It fills the blood
with the nourishment that builds new,
solid and healthy flesh, muscle and nerves
" I am now enjoying magnificent health, after
havipg suffered for year* with chronic catarrh."
writes Ramon Sanchez. Esq . of Penasco. Taos

A. Timid Woman Conducted Arrow a
Crowded Street b> n Slttlit
% leu* Man.
"I saw a most remarkable occurrence
cn the street the other day, saiil a pro
fessional man, reports the Cleveland
Plain Dealer, "and it made a deep im
pression on me. A lady came down Ku
clid avenue and stopped at the corner
if Bond street. She evidently wanted
to cross to the other side of the avenue
She was not a young woman and she did
not look strong. There was quite a
jpm of vehicles in the street, motor car.-*,
wagons and bicycles, and she seemed a
l'ttle timid about risking the pa.-sage.
As she hesitated a man came up Bond
street and paused beside her. lie was
a well-dressed man and carried a heavy
cane, which I noticed he used constant
ly as if he might be a little lnme.
" 'Sir,' said the lady to him, 'can I ask
you to offer me the protection of your
prm in crossing the street?'
"She said this in a very sweet and
ladylike way and the man with tho
cane touched his hat.
" 'Certainly, madam,' he replied, and
offered his arm. As they crossed the
street I followed close behind them.
The man with the cane was very care
ful. He halted several times, but they
reached the other side without mishap
As the lady let go of his arm she said:
" "Thank you, sir, for your courtesy
and protection.'
" 'You are quite welcome, madam, he
replied. 'But I fear you overvalue my
protection —because I am blind!'
"And touching his hat again he
turned and picked his way up the
crowded sidewalk."
LOUIS PHILIPPE IN EXILE.
When 11 Poor Duke He Wanted to
Marry an American Girl, Hut
Her Father Objected.
A merchant prince was a great man in
eld Philadelphia—a far greater man
than the master of a little school, even
though it were the most select in the
city—even though the teacher were an
exiled French gentleman of royal blood,
duke of Orleans then, King Louis
Philippe in after years.
The story of how the princely school
master courted the charming Abigail,
daughter of Thomas Willing, is re
lated wtth new detail in a recent num
ber of the Ladies' Home Journal.
Dressed in his best, and probably, not
withstanding that he was a modest and
sensible young man, little in fear of an
unfavorable response, the exiled prince
called on the American merchant and
asked him for his daughter. There was
nerhaps, more pride than humility in
the answer he received:
"Sir, should you ever be restored to
your hereditary position, you will be
too great a match for my daughter; if
pot, she is too great a match for you."
So the poor schoolmaster went away
disappointed, and, although only his
''position" and the lady's appear to have
been considered by the hard-hearted
parent, it is probable that if Mistress
Abigail had not agreed with his opinion
she would have made her influence felt.
As it was, Louis Philippe married
Princess Marie Amelie, daughter of the
king of Naples, while Abigail \Y illing, of
Philadelphia, who might have been
queen of France, became plain Mrs.
Kichard Peters.
POLITENESS FOR NOTHING.
The Gallant Action of a Man Ilrlntc*
Only Humiliation at the llnndu
of a Proud Woman.
A stylishly attired woman was seen
walking down Washington street the
other day, attracting considerable at
tention by her fine figure and graceful
carriage. Men turned to glance after
her and women managed to see the
uweep of her skirt and the cut of her
roat behind out of the corners of their
ryes without- turning around at all, a
habit most women have. At all events
the woman was ftunning and a young
•utist, turning to obtain a third look a',
her, saw to his delight that she dropped
her purse. Hurriedly he ran towher;
the object lay and stooped down to get
It. At the same instant a ragged Italian
woman made a grnb at it, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
The young artist got it and the worn
oa got it, and both were determined to
retain his hold. Aiter some words 011
the subject, during which the artist felt
like a fool, he conquered and rushed
frantieallv down tl»e street, where tho
stunning woman conld still be seen. He
was breathless when he overtook her
but, lifting his hat politely, he said:
"I saw you drop your purse, madam,
rnd take pleasure in returning it to
you." Haughtily the woman looked at
iiim. "Really, sir, you are very kind,
but I have my purs*;," and she extended
toward him a brand new article that
had certainly just been taken from its
paper wrapping. "I changed my money
in this one," she continued, "and threw
the old one away. You may have it K
you like."
Feathers for FUNIIIOII.
Manufacturers of artificial birds buy
directly from the farmers and make up
their stock with no particular regard
for the accurate representation of a
species. Just at present the birds in
fashion for mourning hats are small
black parrots, and there are no such
birds in nature. A fashion is in vogue
to match the costume in the plumage of
Ihe bird trimmings, and manufacturers
v.se their best art to supply the demand.
Sooner or later this fashion will be the
means of establishing regular farms for
the production of feathers for millinery
purposes.

Thomas G. Allen, Jr., who, some
years ago made a tour of the world
awheel, has written an article on "The
Boys of Siberia" for St. Nicholas. Mr.
Allen says: "'As dreary and cold a*
Siberia' is an expression that has come
to be almost a proverb. The very name
has always conjured up a scene of deso
lation and perpetual winter, enlivened,
perhaps, by a band of criminal exiles
plodding along some lonely highway or
practically buried alive in some gloomy
mine pit. In imagination we have even
Leard the clanking of prison chains,
the moaning of suffering men, and the
sobs of distressed women. And yet.
however displeasing the picture which
the name of Siberia never fails to con
vey, its mysterious and melancholy as
sociations have ever exerted a strange
fascination. I must confess that I have
been no exception to the general rule.
At a very early age I developed the de
sire to visit this mysterious country,
and to discover for myself, if possibU,
some of its terrible hidden secrets.
"It has been my good fortune, on two
recent occasions, to gratify this way
ward ambition; and from what I saw
and experienced 1 can assure my youth
ful reader that his general gloomy i o
tion about the 'land of snow aud exiles"
is, in the main, incorrect —that there is
another and a very brght side to the
Siberian picture.
"Xot raising the question of the de
plorable Siberian exile system 1 won!'
impress upon the reader that Siberia
itself, in its southern portion at l<-a*t.
is a region where the vegetation is as
varied and luxuriant, where the bird
warble just as sweetly where the chil
dren play and the people laugh and
sing just as cheerfully, as in our own
country. In fact, that portion of Si
beria which is now reached by the new
Trans-Siberian railway might very just
ly be called the northern 'promised land
of milk and honey;' for in its teeming
soil, genial summer climate, and fab
ulous mineral wealth it is second to
none in the world."
THE FILIPINO CONGRESS.
Description of ll* Open In it l»y the
Fnmiius Innnrgpnt Leader,
Aurninaldo.
At last, to the sound of the national
march, the delegates moved in a body
to the door and then back again, di
vided, and then Aguinaldo, looking
very undersized and very insignificant,
came marching down, bearing an ivory
stick with gold head and gold cord and
tassels, says Harper's Weekly. A group
of tall, fine-looking generals and one
or two dignitaries in black accom
panied him. and half surrounded him
as they walked along. Mounting the
chancel steps. Aguinaldo took the mid
dle seat behind the table, the acting
secretary of the interior took the place
on his right, and a general occupied the
carved chair on his left. Without any
formal calling to order, the secretary
rose and read the list of delegates, and
sat down again. Then Aguinaldo stood
up, and after the feeble vivas had
ceased, took a paper from his pocket,
ar.d in a low voice, without gestures
and without emphasis, and in the hesi
tating manner of a schoolboy, read his
message in the Tagalog language. Only
once was he interrupted by vivas, and
that was when he alluded to the three
great free nations—England. France,
and America —as worthy models for
imitation. He next rend a purported
translation in Spanish with even more
difficulty, and when he had finished
there was quite a round of cheers, pro
posed and led by the veteran general,
Uiiencamino. for the president, the re
public, and victorious army, and tor
the town of Malolos. Then Aguinaldo
arose and declared the meeting ad
journed until it should reassemble pre
pared to elect officers and to organize
in the regular manner.
THREE FAMOUS STATUES.

The three most famous statues in his
tory are the Colossus of Rhodes, the
Sphinx and the vocal statue of Memnou
at Thebes, and of these the last is the
most remarkable, in consequence of its
rroperty of emitting sounds when its
lips were touched by the rays of the ris
ing sun so that it seemed to greet the
coming day. It was originally a por
trait model of King Ainenophis 111., and
