    United States Logation in Berlin.
The United States government has
been inquiring through the proper |
channel as to the cost of purchasing o
erecting its own buildings for the em-
bassies and legations and several of the
large. consulates-general in Europe. It
may astonish many to learn that Ber-
lin was found the most expensive cap-
ital in the world, so far as the cost of
real estate and of buildings was con-
cerned. The only really suitable build-
ing found there for the purpose would
cost $800,000. The Russian embassy
building in Berlin, which is ‘located
Unter den Linden, and which is, in-
deed, a veritable palace, so spacious
and stately is it, would cost about $4,
000,000 to build to-day, ground and all,
But it is, too,roomy and elegant enough
to have served repeatedly for traveling
quarters for Russian Czars passing
through Berlin. What a miserable con-
trast forms the excuse for an office
which the United States embassy occu-
pies in Berlin, in Kronen strasse, a
street of small shops. In the basement
of the building is a barber shop, on the
ground floor a wine and schnapps shop,
and above the embassy offices reside a
score of private persons.
Possibly no man is as anxious to go
10 war as he pretends to the reporters.

Vacant Land in the United States.
The report of the Secretary of tae In-
terior shows that only a little more
than one-half of the public domain of
the United States is either reserved or
appropriated. The area still remaining |
acant amounts to 591,343,953 acres,
without including Alaska, which is
supposed to embrace nearly 400,000,000 |
acres more. The entire area of the |
United States is placed at 1,835,017,692
acres. Of this, 741,702,365 acres is now
owned by individuals or by corpora- |
tions or by «tates, or has passed out of |
the control of the general government.
The amoceunt reserved for schools, In-
dians, military and naval purposes,
railroad grants, parks, forest reserva- |
tions, ete., including all territory re- |
served from sale for any purpose what-
goever, amounts to 132,441,744 acres, so
that, taking the reserve land and the
vacant land together, only about one-
half of the area of the United States |
has actually passed out of control of
the government, and if Alaska js in- |
eluded, the unoccupied area is larger
by 300,000,000 acres than that which is
pccupied.—San I'rancisco Argonaut.

frequently from a mother’s neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Traditionsays ‘woman must suffer,”
and young women are so taught.
There is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina-
tion; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham’s address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
TF. JorwnsoN, Centralia, Pa., shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
“My health became so poor that I
had to leave school. I was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. I was also troubled
with irregnlarity of menses. 1 was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is a firm believer in “your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. I followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E. Pinkham'’s
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as I
ever was. I have gained flesh and have
a good color. I am completely cured of
irregularity.”

CONGRESS.
SENATE.
or nearly two hours Monday the
senate had under. discussion the reso=
lution of Mr. Lodge (Mass.), directing
the claims committee to make an in-
quiry as to the disposition of the
money appropriated by congress to pay
the claim of the book concern of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South. A
heated colloquy between Mr. Chandler
(New Hampshire) and Mr. Pasco was
the feature of the discussion. Mr.
Chandler said that Mr. Pasco was un-
wittingly and unwillingly the agent
through which a deception had been
practiced upon the senate. Mr. Pasco
demanded the withdrawal of the state-
ment, but Mr. Chandler insisted that it
was correct, and refused to withdraw
it, although he disclaimed any inten-
tion to reflect upon Mr. Pasco’s honor.
The resolution probably will be called
up again.
At Tuesday's session of the senate
the resolution of Mr. Lodge (Mass.)
directing that an inquiry be made into
the disposition made of the Methodist
book concern claim, which was paid
recently by congress, was adopted
without division. In the course of the
debate: upon it, Mr. Morgan (Ala.)
charged that the resolution was insin-
cere and had been drawn for political
effect. “THis statement, Mr. Lodge
denied vigorously, ing his only pur-
Pose in offering the resolution was that
all the facts concerning the matter
should be laid before the people to the
cid that more care should be exercised
the future. “He regarded the claim
paid as a just.one, and-had no idea of
endeavoring to secure its repayment.
He pointed out the fact that had his
amendment to the claim bill been
adopted it would have cut off a profes-
sional lobbyist and prevented a scan-
dal. He hoped that as a result of
proposed investigation a general
would be passed to eliminate
fessional lobbyist from the
eguation.

Lad been placed beside me, and how it
could have hapnened at a temperance
convention I do not know, but it was a
beer mug filled with water. Well, it
was a warm day, and where there is

were flies, and one had lighted trust-
ingly on the surface of the water in
that mug. I saw him as I lifted it, and
[ did the most natural and humane
thing that I could think of—blew him

five minutes. And to this day I sup-

exciting. 1n spite of
some features which cannot be justi-
fied the tax bill was approved as prob-
ably the best that could be obtained
from congress this year, and gave as-
surance of needed revenue for the
emergency. Its bond provision has al-
ready called out offers for more than
three times the amount desired, and it
probably will prove the most success-
ful loan ever invited by the United
States. A great victory in the field could
hardly be 1 e important, especially
in its influéncelon foreign opinion. Not
less significant was the excess
ports over imports in May by 365

in eleven months of- the fiscal year,
while net imports of gold were $102.026,-
989, though in no previous fiscal year
have the net imports of gold exceeded
07,466,127 in 1882.
Not less important is the official
showing that this nation has supplied
to others 100,058,208 bushels wheat and
204,000,000 corn in eleven and a half
months without checking receipts from
farms, and sees wheat fall 20 cents
in a week because a crop is promised
greater than the last by 100,000,000
bushels. The decline would have come

larger gains, but the benefit to this
country by the age advance of

In corn, on the other hand, the cash
price has declined only 1 cent, and the
demand continues extraordinary, west-
ern receipts amounting to. 4,879,242
bushels against 3,813,194 bushels last
ye and exports amounting to 3,662,-
600 bushels, against 1, ,448 bushels
last year.
The cotton movement continues
large for the season, although the
price has advanced a sixteenth in spite
of favorable crop prospects. The ma-
nufacturing demand abroad is good
and controls Liverpool, and at this late
season America lets Liverpool make
prices, Here the manufacturing de-
mand is a little better, though with de-
cline of prices of bleached shirtings
but the mills have large stocks of mat-
erials. There is also a stronger mar-
ket for wool abroad, which with west-
ern excitgmeént makes quotations of
100 qualities by Coates Bros. of 1 cent
higher than June 1, but there is scaxrce-
ly any buying by manufacturers, who
are in doubt about the coming season
and have few new orders, except in
army lines. The break in the price of
sixteen-ounce clay worsted to $1.20 has
somewhat discouraged what promised
to be a healthy market. Sales of wool
were made extremely narrow by the
wide differences between excited west-
ern holders and manufacturers who
have an uncertain coming season to
face.
Pig iron is exremely dull, though
bessemer holds last week's advance
and other. grades are not quotably low-
er. No decline in consumption appears,
and, while bars are weak, with short

vance 2% cents at Pittsburg, while Chi-
cago reports heavy season contracts
still coming from wagon, car and other
manufacturers. Heavy sheets are bet-
ter at the East, but thin are not bet-
ter anywhere. Structural works are
full for the summer, and have had two
remarkably good weeks at Chicago
with buildings and bridge orders. Plate
mills are well employed, and at Chi-
cago the demand for pipe is better,
especially from the Pacific coast. Ship-
ments from there of rails in May in-
cluded some to Sweden, Belgium, South
Africa, Siberia and three other ‘coun-
tries, while orders from Calcutta have

From the Democrat, Goshen, Ind,
When neuralgia is accompanied by a dull,
heavy pain near the heart, froquently bo-
coming intense, it gencrally terminates
fatally. Mrs. Nancy Flynn, who lives neat
Goshen, Indiana, survived such an attack
and her advice is worth heeding.
“In the fall of '92,’ she said, “I began
to have trouble with my heart. There was
a sharp pain in my breast which became
rapidly worse. The doctor was puzzled
and put mo under the influence of opiates,
Those sharp attacks followed one another
at intervals-and I became weak and had a
haggard look. I was constantly in pain,
seldom slept and had no appetite.
“At the end of two years I was confined
to my eouch most of the time and the doc-
tors agreed that my death was only a mat-

“When I had finished one box I noticed
