The Queen's Avenne.
Queen Elisabeth not only seemed t
have all the prerogatives of power, bui
excited in her subjects a chivalry whlct
would no doubt surprise a monarch ol
the present day qulto as much as 11
might delight him. One of the most
gallant services ever rendered her, al
most as flattering as the offer of Sii
Walter Kalelgli's cloak to save hor feet
from the mud, Is connected with Hamp
den House, the home of tho great En
glish patriot.
The Hnmpdrns were a great familj
for many centuries, and a Btnn/,8
quoted In "Ivnnhoe" is typical of tlieii
Importance:
Tring, Wing and Ivingboe,
Three churches all of a row;
These three Hampden did foregoe
For striking of the Black Prince a blow,
And glad he did escape soe.
Hampden House stands on the sum
mlt of the Chlltern Hills, and Is about
three miles from Princes Ilisborougli,
which was the residence of the Black ,
Prince. It is not unlikely that, during
some altercation between subject and
prince, liigli words may have been
used; that the lordly Hampden of thai
earlier day could not restrain himself,
and In the heat of dispute thoughtless
ly struck the Prince; but of this there
Is no authentic record.
But the most Interesting tale Is told
of an open glade or avenue In front ol
Hampden. It Is said that Queen Eliz
nlieth, on her visit to the grandfathei
®f the patriot, was shown to her room
by Mr. Hampden. On looking from the
window, she was struck with the gran
deur of the timber and beauty of the
landscape, and asked:
"Do you not think, Mr. Hampden
that If you had an avenue opening dowi
the hill It would he an Improvement?'
Next morning she looked out again
and there on the hillside lay the scorei
of noble trees which had obstructed hei
view. The "Queen's Avenue" had beer
made.
There Isn't anything against love, if
people wouldn't fool with It when
there are other things they should be
doing.
ANNA IVOR'S REQUEST.
Pcrsoiml letters reach Mrs. Pinkham
by thousands; some asking advice, and
others, like the following, telling ol
what Lydia 10. P ink ham's Vegetable
Compound has done and will ever con
tinue to do in eradicating those fearful
female complaints so little understood
by physicians.
All womb and ovarian troubles,
irregularities, whites, hearing-down
pains, displacements, tendency to enn
cer and tumor are cured permanently.
1 44 I feel as if I owed my life to your
Vegetable Compound. After the birth
of my babe 1 was very miserable. I
bad a drawing pain in the lower part
of my bowels, no strength, and a terri
ble backache. Every day I failed. My
husband said if I would try a bottle of
your Vegetable Compound, he would
get it for me. The change was won
derful. After I had taken the first
half bottle I began to have great faith
in it. When I had taken three bottles,
I was well and growing stout. It is a
pleasure for me to write this to you.
I only ask women in any way afflicted
with female troubles to try it."—Mas.

ON THE RIVER AT HENLEY
fus. SKIMPLEY'S
houseboat was al
ways ono of tho
prettiest at Hen
ley, as tho party
gathered on it was
one of tho mer-
As soon as ho
had received the
legacy loft him by
his uncle, "Nug
gel" Skimpley, of
the Australian gold
"W/VMW" fields, Mr. Skimp
ley liad sent his only son to Oxford to
add to the family ton and through
him had picked up a lot of showy aud
useful acquaintances.
Several of these were to he of the
Henley party, for Mrs. Skimpley de
lighted in 'varsity men. They wero
so "chick," sho Baid.
Aud it was to Abererombie—
familiarly known as "Crumbs"—of
Magdalen that tho particular adven-.
ture befell, whioh it is my present pur
pose to relate, though, as tho sequel
will show, Miss Vernon was not wholly
uninteresting in the episode.
When young Frederick Skimpley
had been written to at college and told
that he might bring a couple of friends
to tho houseboat party ho at once in
vited Abererombie aud Wedgewood.
Ho wrote and said so, mentioning that
Altorcrombie, fino oarsman, was tho
glorious possessor of three blues, while
Wedgewood, who was poetically in
clined, had won the Newgate.
But Tuesday morning had brought
a letter from her SOD, saying that of
his two friends only Crumbs could
come, and that he himself could not
get away until Thursday.
Mr. Skimpley was decidedly chag
rined at tho news, for Frederick would
have at least been able to talk about
his noble friends at the 'versity, while
doubtless the othor absentees would
have been ablo to contribute somewhat
to the general enjoyment in tho same
way. Still, there was Crumbs
"Aud whichever is Crumbs?" ejacu
lated Mrs. Skimpley to her spouso
over the breakfast table, "f do wish
Fred would not use those vulgar slang
terms."
"It isn't slang," explained hor hus
band. "Down ut Oxford they all call
each other by short names of that sort.
You've been there, and ought to re
member these things."
"I thought it was the correct thing
to say up at Oxford," retorted Mrs.
Skimplov, "It's much worse to forget
that than the other."
"Quito right, Marie," replied Mr.
Skimpley, "you had me there, dear.
I mast remember that confounded
thing, for it so riles Fred when I for
get it. Though why 'up' I'm hanged
if I know."
"It doesn't matter why, so long as
it's the correct thing," said Mrs.
Skimpley, sagely ; "but if it is Aber
erombie, is he tho blues man or the
poet?"
"Look up Fred's letter, that'll ex
plain it," advised hor husband, light
ing his pipe, and going out to look at
tho weather.
Mrs. Skimpley looked everywhere
for hor sou's letter, but it was not to
be found. So she was still in doubt
whether Mr. Abercrombio was the poet
or tho nthlete, whon her guests begau
to arrive.
None of them needs any special
mention, except Miss Vernon, who was
a tall girl, withhairof goldeny Itrown,
a clear complexion and good teeth.
She was Mrs. Skimpley's niece, and
could now very properly be regarded
as a poor relation.
They were all silting chatting under
the awning over tho roof of the house
boat when a skiff was seen approach
ing, in tho stern of which sat a gentle
man in a very immaculatoboatingco3-
tunie. Something told them that this
wa3 Mr. Abererombie, and so itprovod
to be.
As he stepped aboard Mrs. Skimpley
noted particularly that his trousers
were baggy, that his shirt was of
white silk, and that in the Inittonholo
of his college blazer was a boautiful
blush rose.
However, tho elegance of Mr. Aber
orornbie's get np, coupled with tho
fact that his faco was extremely paio,
was quite sufficient to convince hor
that it was the poet and not the ath
lete that stood before them.
"I nm so delighted you have como,
Mr. Abererombie," she said, "but we
nre so disappointed that neither Mr.
Wedgewood nor Frederick can como
with you. Let me introduce you—"
and the introductions were made, Mr.
Abercrombio bowing to everybody
with a graco which Mrs. Skiuiploy
afterward declared was poetry itself.
"Havo you ever been to Henley bo
fore?" asked tho hostose.
"Yes, many times," replied Aber
erombie, a slight look of surpriso pass
ing over his face.
"I suppose you find the river in
spires some of your poems?" continued
the lady ; "how I envy your jrower to
write lovely verses. You must com
pose something for my album before
you go."
"I'm really afraid," he began,
"that you do mo too much honor, I
couldn't—"
"Now, you mustn't say that," broko
in Mrs. Skimpley, archly; "a little
bird has told me all about your New
gate poem, so, you see, you are found
out."
Abercrombio laughed. A light had
suddenly burst upon his mind. Ho
was being mistaken for the absent
Wedgewood. "Well," ho thought,
"I'll try to play the part; it will bo
moro amusing than figuring as a more
muscular animal."
And so he forthwith accepted the
poetical crown wrongfully placed upon
his brow, and proceeded to talk senti
ment with admirable gravity.
Ho had quite a discussion with Miss
Vernon on the subject of tho superior
ity of mind over muscle, and lament
ed that so many young inou should
think more of winning a race than
composing a sonnet.
And Miss Vernon, who thought that
if Mr. Abercrombio wero not quite so
poetically languorous ho would not at
all bo a bad specimen of young man
hood, was moved to open wrath by his
lackadaisical sentiments.
The Skimpley party dined, and then
Ambercronibie, weary of poetical im
posture aud his hostess's gushing ad
miration therefor, slipped quietly
away for a walk aud a pipe along tho
bank.
His thoughts woro not altogether
happy, although they were mainly oc
cupied with Miss Vernon. "What a
fool I am making of myself!" lie re
ilectod. "Here's a delightful girl
whom 1 should like to please, and yet
1 am deliberately figuring before her
in a character she despises, which is
exactly the opposite of my own. What
perverse fato tempted me into this
senseless deception?"
Abercrombie's meditations had just
reached this disagreeable point whoa
they were interrupted by a startling
incident. Ho heard a splash, and then
a loud scream raug out on the air,
followed by agonized cries for help.
In an instant the dreamer became
a man of action. He ran forward and
found a woman standing on tho water's
verge, wringing her hands in terrified
grief. She lucohorontly criod out
that her child had fallen into tho riv
er, and that her husband in trying to
rescuo it had also sunk.
Abererombie flungoff his jaoket and
shoes and dived in. He found tho
pair at the bottom and seized tho
child to rosouo first. But her clothes
were tightly gripped in the drowning
father's hands.
Abererombie tried to drag her
away, but tho grasp would not relax.
The desire for breath was upon him ;
lie saized tho girl with both hands,
put a foot on the fathoi's chest and
tore her from hiseluteh; and the next
instant he drew a blessed inspiration
on the surface.
A dozen willing hands—for the
scream had attracted others to the
scene—helped bin with the child to
the bank; then ho dived again and
easily recoverod the body of tho father.
Ho swiftly set to work to restore
consciousness to tho latter, noting
that tho child was already in skilled
hands. His efforts wero presently
successful and the man began to show
signs of returning animation.
When he reached the boathouso he
found the party still ohatting nnd
laughing amid the soft light of Chinese
lantorns.
110 hoped that tho oondition of his
clothes would pass unnoticed, and
that ho would ba ablo to change
without attracting attention, but
it was not to bo. Tho sharp eyes
of Mrs. Skimpley noted his dripping
vestments, and her vivacious tongue
immediately made tho fact public.
"Why, Mr. Abercrombio is soaking
wot," she eriod. "Havo you boon try
ing to get wat r lilies for Miss Ver
non? I heard her say she wanted
somo."
"At any rate my search has been in
vain," saiil Abercrombio, coldly, for
ho was annoyed at. being found out,
and vexed at tho allusion to Mis 3 Ver
non.
Abercrombio vouchsafed no explana
tion of tho causo of his wetting, and
ovon tho lively hostess had sufficient
tact to not again refer to the mishap
when ho returned to the company in
dry attire.
It i curious how theso things got
about, but next morning nearly all
Henley had heard of tho gallant rescue
of tho night before. Tho local pur
veyor of eggs told tho Skimpleys' man
and ho told his master, and much
speculation was indulged in as to tho
identity of tho heroic unknown,
whose modesty scorned on a par with
his courage.
After breakfast a stroll along the
banks was proposed, and Abercrouibio
took care to secure Miss Vernon for a
companion, They chatted idly about
tho regatta for a while, and then Miss
Vernon referred to tho rescue.
"What a noblo thing to do!" she
Raid. "Hew I Bhould liko to meet tho
man that did is!" (Abercrombio felt a
thrill at tho words). "Jt would havo
been a bravo deed in daylight, but at
night, when the river looks so terribly
dark and deep and mysterious, it was
a splendid act indeod. Don't you
think so, Mr. Abororombio?"
"I think tho gentlemen probably
caught a bad cold," responded Aber
crombie, "and, after all, it's only a
question of being able to swim, and
thero's not much in that."
"Swim, indeed," retorted Miss Ver
non, "and do you suppose that every
person that could swim would liave
done what that man did!"
"Quite a subject for a poem," ejac
ulated Abercrombie seatontiously, but
looking with admiration at tho flushed
cheeks and glistening eyes of his fair
companion.
"Well, Mr. Aberorombie," she said,
you may not mean all you Pay, and I
hope you are not so—so puerile as you
chooso to appear. I don't suppose
that my opinion is anything to you,
and of course poetry is all very well
in its way. But if it wero a—a brother
of mine I would rather that ho did one
such deed as that of last night than
write fifty prize poems!"
The color had faded from her cheeks
and her eyes flashed as she spoke. As
Abercrombie looked into their depths
his own ordinarily irapassiblo face
6bowcd signs of emotion. Ho uttered
a happy little laugh and straightened
himself up with an unconscious
gesture.
They had walked on and on whilo
the others had turnod back, and wero
now quite noar the scene of the
previous night's episode. As they ap
proached it they saw a group on tho
bank eagerly talking.
Among the colloquists wore a man
aud a woman, holding a little girl be
tween them, Abercrombio recognized
them in a moraont. Tho child looked
palo enough, but tho man appeared
none the worse for his narrow escape.
As Abercrombio and his companion
slowly passed the woman looked ear
nestly in his face, and tlion ran for
ward and seized his arm.
"You're tho gentleman who saved
my man aud little girl," she cried. "I
know you are, for I saw you plain in
the moonlight. Tom! Tom!—"and
her voico broke hysterically.
The mau stepped forward and took
off his cup, and tho others gathered
around.
"Was it you, sir?" ho said, seizing
Abcroromble's disengaged hand and
looking him earnestly in tho face.
"Yes, lam euro it was. Oh, sir, take
a lather's blessing—she's our only one,
sir, and it'd a' broko our hearts to 1030
her."
Abercrombio stood tho picture of
embarrassment. Had he really been
a poet ho would doubtless have been
charmed with tho situation, but being
a mere athlete it was rather too much
for him.
"Don't say nuotlicr word," ho man
aged to re murk. 'Tin as happy as
you aro to have boon able to holp you.
After all"—aud lie smiled at the recol
lection the words called up—"it's only
a matter of being ablo to swim. And
how aro you, my dear, after your
ducking?" and ho bent down to kiss
the child's pale forehead.
They reluctantly lot hint go with a
fervent "God bless you, sir," aud as
lie and his companion bogan to retraco
their steps an excited member of the
family group called for a cheer from
him, and its echoes followed the pair
as they walked away.
As for Miss Vernon sho was a piti
oble sfcato. Sho had seen and hoard
all, and her mind was tilled with noth
iug but the thought of the ghastly,
egregious mistake she had made.
"Mr. Abercrombie," sho said, in a
choking voice, "you havo treated mo
shamefully, and I'll never forgivo
you."
"Do not 6ay that," ho rejoined with
an earnestness that seemed to make it
quite right and proper for him to tako
her hand. "I assure you it's not my
fault. It is just an absnib misun
derstanding from beginning to end.
Mrs. Skimploy mixed up Wedgewood
and mo and I was silly enough to
humor her mistake."
"But you havo deceived me," said
Miss Vernon.
"If you will forgivo mo, I swear to
you that I will never do it again,"
pleaded Abercrombie, still prisoning
tho hand that sought to bo free.
Moro than a year had flown since
this little episode oceured, but if you
chanced to be at Henley last July and
happened to puss Mrs. Skimpley's
houseboat, a tasteful thing in green
aud gold, with a striped awning aud a
profusion of flowers, you may havo
noticod on it a tall anil sweet looking
gill with a delicate complexion, and
golden brown hair.
If sho was unglovod you will have
noticed on tho third finger of her left
hand a diamond ring, and in all prob
ability you also saw near at hand tho
donor thereof—a palo fellow in most
immaculate flannels.—Temple Bur.
Electric Fishing.
►Spain has never been very promi
nent in tho adoption of electrical in
ventions, but it is only just to say
that, for once, she lias taken the load
of all other Nations. Tho possibili
ties of electric fishing have boon freely
described in the United States, and an
ontorprising fish trawler on the Cali
fornian coast actually fitted his nets
with electrio lights, which proved very
attractive to the fish that before had
been somewhat chary of entering tho
nets. A Spanish company is aid to

out patents in Spain for tho use of tho

HEALTH IN OLD AGE.
AN OLD LA DY FINDS TIIK TRUE
SOURCE OF VITALITY.
A Reporter's Intermit lug Interview With
a Lady of Seventy-two Venn, Who
Tell* A Marvelous Story.
From the Union, Port Jerri*, X. V.
But a short time ago, in a distant part of
the country, wo heard of a euro by tho use
of Dr. Williams' Pink rills, which seemed
almost marvolous, and more recently anoth
er substantial ovidoncoof their value reached
our oars. Being of an inquiring turn of
mind, and wishing to know just how much
there was in the story, a reporter was sent to
interview tho person said to he thus bene
fited. If the narrative as it had reached our
ears was true, it was only simple justice to
let it be known —if it proved untrue, it would
be well to know it.
The person alluded to above as having
been thus greatly benefited by tho use of
Pink Pills is Mrs. Jane Ilotalen, of llnines
vllle, N. J., a pleasant hamlet in Sussex
County, about fliftoen miles from this office.
The reporter had no difficulty in finding
Mrs. Hotalon. It was nearly noon when wo
reached her pleasant homo, a double house,
one part of which is occupied oy her son.
She Is a pleasant-faced old lady, looking to
be about sixty-five, but la in reality sev ntj
two years of age. After a few preliminary
remarks in explanation of tho call, she was
asked if she had any objection to giving us
the details of the case and how she came to
try this now famous remedy.
"Not at all," said she. "If my experience
can be of any good to others, I am sure they
are welcome to it it fail do me no barm."
"When were you taken sick and what was
the nature of the muladyV" was asked.
"It was about two years ago. The trouble
was rheumatic in character—sciatica, they
called it—and it was very painful indeed.
The difficulty began in my hip and extended
the whole length of the limb, crippling me
completely. I suffered intensely from it and
the ordinary treatment gave me not the
slightest alleviation. I was under trei tment
about a month as stated, but grew worse in
stead of better, and was fast becoming dis
couraged."
"What brought Pink Pills to your notice?"
"My son called my attention to an article
In n paper in which it was stated that a Mr.
St ruble, of Branchville, a village in this
county, had been greatly benefited ty their
use, and suggested that it would be a good
plan to try them. But I was skeptical in re
gard to thHr value—in fact, I had no confi
dence in their efficacy and rather laughed
at the suggestion. But the trouble increased
and I was badly crippled. A few lays
later my son was about to visit a neigh
boring town and suggested again that it
might be well to try this much-talkod-of
remedy, and I thou consented, lie bought
me a box of them and I began taking them
at once. At tho end of a week I noted a
marked improvement, and by the time I had
taken the first box I was able to walk with
out a cane. I continued their use, taking
several boxes, and am, as you see, in u very
comfortable state of health."
"Have you had any roturn of tho trou
ble?"
"Not as yet, though at my time of lire,
seventy-two, it would not be surprising if I
should have. If it comes, I should at once
begin tho use of tho pills. I suppose I in
herit a tendency to troubles of this kind—
my mother died from them."
"Did you ever note any ill effects from tho
uso of Pink Pills?"
"None whatever. They never disturbed
my stomach in any way or caused nieany
annoyance. Neither did I find it necessary
to increase tho doso, ns the directions say
may be desirable. lam able, as you see, to
attend to my own work."
The reporter thanked Mrs. Hotalon tor her
courtesy and bade her good day. It is n>t
often tint one can witness such n complete
recovery from such a pertinacious trouble at
such an advanced age, and such instances
cannot fail to produce a profound impres
sion. Headers of the Union may rely i>n the
absolute accuracy of all the statements here
given—nothing lias been exaggerated, noth
ing withheld.

|ly removes. That is why it is the only
l remedy with millions of families, on:li3
, everywhere esteemed so highly by all
; who value good health. Its beneficial
effects arc due to the fact, that it is the
: one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating the
; organs on which it nets. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur-
I chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
' Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep'
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended tothemost skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere. Syrup of
1 Figs stands highest and is most largely
uaed and gives most general satisfaction.

Mr. A. W. 13urch, an attach® of
the Rorao, N, Y., Sentinel, writes
i September sth, 1895: "In oonverra
' lion wit h one of our merchants a few
days ago, I learned that his wife,
who had been in very poor health,
was regaining her health and
strength, and that she attributed her
reoovery to Ripaos Tabules. I re
quested an interview, which was
granted, and the lady cheerfully
gave me the inclosed testimonial:
Tor a long time 1 huve boen inter
ested in the advertisements cf Itipanj
Tubules, which I have seen in the
Homo Sentinel and the leading mag
azines. The advertisements seemed
m to be honest and I grew to believe
them. I tried to obtain some of the
Tabules, but found that none of the
druggists in this city kept them. I
was determined to givethem a trial,
and at last procured n box by send
ing to Utica. I had suffered from
indigestion, sour stomach, heartburn
and distress in my stomach after
eating. 1 began t>v taking a Tubule
after my breakfast and supper and
experienced immediate relief, and In
a few daystho distressiug symptoms
had eutirely disappeared. Now
when I oat anything that usually
disagrees with mo 1 take one Tabule
and avoid unpleasant consequences.
1 have also found in them a very
agreeable relief for constipation.
