President John (juinry Adnins contin ued McLean, as postmaster Keueral tlnr Iur his administration. Andrew Jackson, remembering his ancestry, made "Mo" secretary of tiio treasury. This was Louis McLano of Delaware. His appointment was made Aug. 18, 1881. Two years later (May 89, 1833) Jackson made McLane secre tary of state, he succeeding Edward Livingston of Louisiana. In 1841 President John Tyler went to Oltio for a "Mo" for secretary of war, choosing John McLean, who had been postmaster general in Monroe's: cabinet. President Millard Fillmore bad a "Mc" for secretary of the iutcrior. This was Robert McClcllaud of Michigan, who was appointed March F, 1853.

Salt Lake Herald. Championed by Dog. Several years ago in Wisconsin, befcTe the Indian had retired from the neigh borhood of the white man, a mother and her little girl were Alone in their cottage oa the edge of a great forest. Everything seemed peaceful, and there waa uo thought of danger. The mother sat inside the door sewing, while Uie child was in the bright amnshine play ing. Their large black dog Cuff was the only other member of the family. Sud denly half doaen Indiana fresh from recent raid on whisky stood in the door way and demanded more whisky. The lady bad no whisky, but offered them food and drink. The Indians, however, were drunk, and before the mother could interfere the roughest seised the little girl and was making off with ber when the dog, which had wandered way abort - distanoe, came bounding back. In an instant he had the savage by the throat and threw him to tiie ground. The others, having no firearms, beat a hasty retreat The dog kept a tight grip on the ludiau until they had all gone, then released him, and he also departed. Our Dumb Animals. Good Manners sod Quick Wit. The little viscount is receiving a few friends in his bachelor quarters. Among them is fiolreau. The lutter, having allowed his cigar to go out, throws it without ceremony on the carpet. In order to give bim a lesson in good manners the little vis count stoops to pick it up, but Roireau, fuiguing to misuuderstaud hia intention, interposes: "Ob, leave the butt, my dear fellow. Take a fresh cigar." And he bauds him the box. Paris Figaro. A funcy dress bull is given once a yeur by the lady artists, sculptors, sing ers and actresses of Berlin.

Fireproof Hope, j Ctinntlinn nnd Italian nsbrstus will find a serious competitor in tlifl blue an- licctns recently discovered in the Cnpo j Colony, ninne the Hmitli African product ' is lens than linlf its heavy anil furnishes 1 fibers considerably finer and lunger than ' any other. The outh African fltier has been worked Into webs, which am but little Inferior tn those made of vegetable fiber and are absolutely fireproof. Twine, j cord nnd rope mndo of this bine nsheslns Will not only resist tire, but also most nf the known chemicals, corrosive Tapors and atmospheric influences. These qual ities will open a new field for the em ployment of asbestns fabrics in chemical laboratories and for, the calking of chemical apparatus. In order to test the resistance of the new material a blue nslrstm rope of about tliree-fonrths of an Inch In diam eter wos weighted at oue end with 820 pounds and exposed to n constant flame from a large gas jet, so that the rore for a considerable length was surrounded by fire. The cord only broke afttr 88 hours. Still it was a trifle lighter than a rope of the same diameter made of Russian hemp. Compared with a new hemp rope, the asbestos rope has two thirds of its strength, but as the ropes get older the proportion is altered in favor of asbestus ropes, since they suffer but very little from the influences of the atmosphere. Another novel application of this ma terial is the working of blue asbestns fiber into mattresses for hospitals. They are cooler iu summer and warmer in winter than those made cither of ani mal hoir or vegetable fiber, mid 110 ver min can live in this mattress. Experi ments lire now being made of working this fiber into cloth for firemen's ap parel. Of course the long fiber of blue asbestns can also be employed for all the nses to which white asbestos has been put heretofore. While a trifle more expensive, its superior qualities made it well worth the difference. Philadel phia Record. A Fvmnchlan For Sale. "The biggest thing I ever had on tap,'" said a citizen of Alabama, "was when I first realized that it was necessary for me to go out and do some thing for myself, before I came fane to face with this emergency I had been abroad and was impressed with the way they most make money at Jlonte Carlo, It waa mathematically sure thiug and pleuty of it "After I bad interested rvni friends we all went to Mexico, and by lavish promises surneedetl iu getting a fran chise from the government and were to conduct a mammoth gambling institu tion under iM protection.

"Detroit Free Presa. They Liked Victoria. Al an iudioation of the popularity at tained vety early in her iife by Princess Victoria it is interesting to heur that great indignation was expressed all over England when it waa known that the child had not been present at her an cle's coronation in 1831. Some said that the Duchess of Kent waa in fault, oth ers blamed the prime minister, and some asserted that Queen Adelaide was responsible for the omission. Letters and articles were published in all the newspapers, and the sensation did not subside until the Duchess of Kent ex plained that, owing to a weakness of the anklea from which the little Victo ria was then suffering. It had been thought wiser not to expose her to the long standing which attendance at the ceremony would have necessitated. Philadelphia Ledger. Worn May Vet Hava Beard. A. Brandt, in his writings on the human beard, proffers an opinion di rectly opposing tlwt of Darwin, that the beard Is a hereditary remnant of auiuiul growth. According to Brandt, it is an acquisition, so thut even the oc casional beard of women has a prophut io significance, for an man has over taken woman in his whole organiza tion, so it is the cuse also with reference to the beurd. But slowly women ore following, und now 10 per cent of them show a stronger growth. Tho woman of the distant future would then like wise be adorned with a beurd. Die Uinschau. Wilrt Signs.

IAD NO FAITH IN PHYSIC, Queen Dllratx-th Might Have Lived Longer Had She Taken Medicine. j Of the efllcaeyof physio tjtieen Eliza- bet It li.nl always been skeptical. Now, 10 or 18 physicians came to the pnliinn, 1 cacti nrnmisiug, "with all manner of ! asseveration," "her perfect an 1 easy j recovery" if she would follow a simplo i course of treatment Bin) they spoke iu j vuii). Nor could tho protests of council ors, divines and waiting women induce her to acrt'pt medical assistance. Her melancholy was "settled and irremov able," and she had no wish to prolong it by lengthening nnt her life. She only broke silence to murmur, "I am not sick, I feel no pain and yet I pine away. " She was asked whether she had any secret cause of grief. She replied that she knew of nothing in the world worthy of troubling her. At length by force (it is said) she was lifted from tho cushions and put to bed. Her condition underwent no change. Gradually those about her realized that "she might live if she would use means," but that she would not be periuadt tl, and priuces, as ' they tearfully acknowledged, cannot bo coerced. Nevertheless, until the third week tin y looked forward to a renewul of her old vivacity and the dispersal of her lethargy. But during the week it was peret ived that the ground she had lost cov.ld only bo recovered by miracle. On Wednesday, March 83, her coun cilors entered In r bedchamber to receivo her last instructions. She had none to give. The archbishop and bishops offered up prayerat her bedside, and shederived some comfort from their ministrations. In the evening she sank into a quiet sleep, such as she had sought without avail for nearly a mouth. She never woke again. "About 8 o'clock iu the morning of March 84 she departed this life, mildly like a lamb, easily like a ripe applo from the tree." When she was examined after death, her phy sicians reported that "she had a body of firm and perfect constitution, likuly to hove lived many years." Death was, iu fact, prepared to tho last to bargain with her for a few more years of life, but his terms implied an aufeeblemeut of those faculties on whose unrestricted exercise her queenly fame seemed to her to depend. By refusing to be party to the truce she invited her overthrow, bat she never acknowledged herself vanquished. She mado no will, she be stowed no gift on any of the faithful at tendants who wept beside ber deathbed, and fibe declined to guide her council in the choice of a successor. Coruhill Magazine. A PLACE FOR FIFTY. A Statesman Who' Found a t'se For the Earning of His Pen. "I recall a pleasant incident in the life of the lato Representative Hartcr tlf Ohio," suid an Ohio man the other day, "I was at his apartments oue ewuing tat tho hotel where he lived during his 'Ant term in congress and was in the re ception room with several friends while he was working in his office at the far end of the enit r rooms. Presently he came out among us laughing and hold ing in bis faaua check. " 'Oh,' be av1 to us, 'I am literary, as well as yoa ure, and here's) a check for "iO I huTe just got from a muga cine for an urticlo thut I wuna't expect ing to get riuyllbiug for.' "I told him I was not that literary, for I oouldmt sell oue article for $50, and we laughed and chatted awhile about it, Mr. Hartcr insisting that ho wasn't writor for money, but for the sake of presuuting his virws to the world. " 'I don't know what to do with the check,' be sud and turned to hia wife. 'Do yon need it?' he asked ber. "She told him she did not, though most women would have had nse for it quick enough, and be stood irresolute for a moment with the check in bis band, then be smiled radiantly. '"I know somebody who does want it,' be said, nodding at hia wife as if she never would see it again. ' I received a letter from the pastor of little Lu theran church Mr. H. was a zealous Lutheran away out in Missouri, who is having a very bard time to get along and keep body and soul together, ask ing me if I couldn't do something. I ran send him this check. ' And he danced way with it as joyously as a schoolboy with a plaything, and in a minute or two the check, duly indorsed ' and ac companied by a lutter, was waiting for the postman to start it on its mission of charity, and I have often wondered what the business mauager of that mag azine thought when be found that check to the order of M.

The medicine hints of Navnjnes, Znnla nnd Apaches, all kindred tribes in New Mexico and Arizona, contain a curious powder, known as corn polh n or hod dentin. This powder, which is tlin pol len of a rush, and also of maize, npji urs to bo nsrtl ns a medicine, being t ittcll by tho sick and put on the hreil or titlit r parts to ease pain, bnt principally us a stirred offering to the sun ni;d mtifiu und as n sitlietiller of every) hing. A pinch of it is thrown toward the sun and then toward tliu fonr winds for help iu war or tho chase, is put on the trail of a snake, to prevent harm from it, placed on the tougne of the tired hunter as a restorntive, hung in bags round the necks of Infunts as a preserv ative and sprinkled on the dead. In fact, every action of these Indians is sanctified by this powder, so that, ns Captain Bourke writes in the ninth volume of ' 'Tho Report of the Buteun of Ethnology" (Smithsonian), "plenty of hotltlentin has come to mean that a particular performance or place is sa cred." Captain Bourke shows niuny antilogies to the nse of this sacred powder both in the east and among the ancient Greeks and Romans, nnd it is clear that similar practices with regard to "med icine" that is, magic have prevailed everywhere and in all ages, for super stition seems to be the universal heri tage of man, so deeply ingrained in his very nature that oil the efforts of phi losophers and "thirteen" clubs will not avail to root it out. Medici mi bags or amulets will continue, to bo worn open ly or secretly not only by the wild In dian nnd the Kaffir, but by many among ourselves who cling to the beliefs hand ed down probably from remoto prehis toric nges. Chambers' Journal. A nutlet In His Heart. "It is generally thought that a man cannot live very long after getting a bul let iu his heart," said a South Carolin ian, "but there is an instanco on record in my state of a man carrying a bullet in his heart five weeks before death. The inciter is fully authenticated, the post mortem examination having been made by Dr. Curran B. Eurle, a nephew of the late United States Senator Lurlc. The wounded man was named Tom Ferguson, and be was shot by 11 i cpro named Dock Chaney at Greenville, S. O. Ferguson lived five weeks, 111 tl at the post mortem examination a l!8 cali ber ballet was fnnud firmly imbedded in the exterior wall of the heart. The cause of Ferguson's death was the inun dation of the pericardial cavity, which impeded tho uetiou of tho heart, which in plain English menus that the cavity surrounding the heart was punctured nnd flooded to snch an extent that tho beurt was prevented from beating. This carrying a bullet in the heart is a re mnrkablo case, but the physiciuus were not utile to suy, without tedious research, whether it has a like iu the medical records or not A patient, it is said, may live several days with a wounded heart, und a metaphorical wound, bow ever severe, may not shorten his life at all, but the cases, if any, where oue carried a bullet in this sensitive organ so long are few und fur between."

But, there is always room for ' ono more und i gives you more of ar variety in town to select from; and- as competition is tho life of trade, It wBl encourage you to a certuln extent to buy your goods at home and save you tho disadvantage of going olsowbere. So when you are in need of anything In my Una I would cordially invito you to come in, inspeat my goods, got my prices and buy your goods whore you can obtain the best goods for the least money.
