The reason why ships are not struck
by lightning is attributed by German
authorities to the general use which
is now made of wire rope for rigging
purposes, as well as to the fact that the
hulls of ships are usually constructed
of iron or steel. Thus the whole ship
forms an excellent and continuous con
ductor, by means of which the electric
ity is led away into the ocean before it
has time to do any serious damage.

New Use for Peanuts.
A new use for peanut is developing as
the peanut butter industry becomes
better understood. The product of the
peanut answers in the place of ordi
nary butter for the table use, and is
said to be excellent for shortening pur
poses, and for gravies, sauces, etc. In
point of purity it is well designed for
the use of vegetarians who strenuous
ly object to anything animal. There is
already a considerable demand for this
butter substitute, and it is very prob
able there will be an enlarged market
for the nuts. At present the product
of the United States is about 000,000
bags annually, and that of the world
is U00,U00,000 pounds.—West Coast

The characters number about four
thousand, and are ou the edge of wheels
about a foot in diameter. Twenty or
thirty wheels are required to carry nil
the characters, and two keys must be
struck to make an impression. The first
turns the wheel, anil the second stops
it at the required letter, which is then
brought dowu to the paper. The ma
chine Is complicated, but the inventor
(Dr. Sheffield) hopes to make it more
simple. There are 18,000 characters in
the Chinese language, each represent
ing a distinct word. The 4,000 in com

machine.
RELIEF FROM PAIN.

"DEAR MRS. PINKIIAM:— Before tak

to me. I never saw a well day. At
my monthly period I suffered untold
misery, and a great deal of the time I
was troubled with a severe pain in my
side. Before finishing the first bottle
of your Vegetable Compound I could
tell it was doing me good. I continued
its use, also used the Liver Pills and

helped. I would like to have you use
my letter for the benefit of others."

" DEAR MRS. PINKHAM: —For two

A. PHILIPPINE ROMANCE.
ADVENTURES IN THE ISLANDS OF
A GENTLEMAN OF BRITTANY.
De la Gironniere, Whom Dumas Once De
scribed as a Phantom* Went to Ufa- !
nlla, Founded a Colony. Subdued Pi- '
rales and Married a Creole Beauty. j
About the middle of the present
century, -when Dumas the elder was
at the height of his career, and the or
igin of many an interesting piece of
French literature was delightfully un
certain, a couple of works appeared
tha_t drew attention to the mysterious
and far-off Philippines, In his "Thou
sand and One Phantoms," issued seri
ally in the Constitutionnel, Dumas
made free with a fellow countryman
who had been the hero of certain sur
prising adventures in the Pearl of the
Orient, and the hero thereupon not
caving to figure as a phantom in a
feuilleton, got out his "Adventures of
a Gentleman of Brittany in the Phil
ippines." Some persons, however,
thought the hero would have been
truer to life as the creation of Dumas;
that a3 a real gentlemn i of Brittany
he was only another living liar, and
that, in fact, his romantic narrative
was the work of a new Selkirk and
Defoe combination.
Paul Proust da la Gironniere was
counted in the pedigree of an ancient
I'iedmontese family that came over
the St. Bernard and into Brittany in
the days of Louis XIV., and soon be
came rich enough to have access to the
nobility and to contract "the most
flattering alliances." Paul's father
was born at Nantes, where his ances
tors had held high office under tho
c?own. His wealth was swept away
the revolution; and he died on a
piece of land owned by his wife. Paul's
mother gave the boys such education
as she could, and then they went to
seek their fortune. One died in Mad
agascar; another returned to Porto
Hico to die in his mother's arms; the
husband of one of Paul's sisters died
in Mauritius, and another brother died
while visiting Paul in the Philippines.
Paul wns born at Nantes; he stud
ied medicine; and thence, a mere
stripling, he sailed as ship's surgeon
to the Far East, embarking for the
fourth time ou October 9, 1819, and
casting anchor about the end of May,
1820, in the Bay of Manila. He lauded
at Cavite, enjoyed the whirl of Manila
society, studied the Tagafoc, went
among tho natives iu tho mountains,
began the cateer of sportsmanship
that was to culminate in hunting tho
stag and tho buffalo and in killing
caymans and boa constrictors, and fin
ally allowed his ship to go home and
leave him iu the metropolis of the
archipelago.
He had resolved to become a resi
dent physiciau. He faced the fanati
cism of the cholera massacre of 1820,
and he had a clean shirt iu his hat aud
a dollar in his pocket. Finding a rioh
old don nearly blind, he cured one eye
aud made a glass ball for the socket of
the other, and his reputation was
established. Paul became Dr. Pablo,
and surgeon of a regiment of regulars
and of a battalion of militia. But
when the leaders of the Novalles re
bellion of 1823 were shot, he had oc
casion to call a Spanish informer a
coward, aud some time thereafter,
having words with the Governor-Gen
eral over a question of ethics, he re
signed and was thenceforth a sort of
surgical free lance to tho people of
Luzon.
The travels of La Gironniere in the
island, though undertaken incident
ally to professional duty or out of mere
curiosity or a desire to go somewhere,
are scientifically interesting, and will
be as important to the historian as
many of the manuscript accounts that
are rolled up in the cloistral archives.
He explored caves, lakes, mountain
fastnesses and immense forests; slept
in treetops and on the tidal sands;
learned the ways of tho tribes and
gathered legends; attended the Tin
guian brain feast; sketched the interior
of Igorrot huts and carried off the
skeleton of a Negro woman.
La Gironniero's most valuable con
tribution to the civilization of the
island was his colony of Jala-Jala.
Before his resignation had been ac
cepted, Senor Pablo, who was known
among the natives as Malamit Oulon,
or "Co'ol Head," had secured of the
Minister of Finance a sito for a model
farm in the mountainous peninsula
that extends southward into the beau
tiful Lake of Bay at the head of the
Pasig. Here, with his devoted wife,
and commissioned to subdue as he
might the pirates and banditti of this
wild region, he founded among these
victims of Spain's extortion aud mis
rule a prosperous and orderly com
munity. Assisted by these industrious
nud loving neighbors, and heartily
seconded by the once dreaded Chieftain
Alila, by a Malay-Japaneso priest whom
the Archbishop had told him nobody
could ever live with, and by his ever
inspiring Anna, the "Queen of Jala-
Jala," ho converted a forest and a
malarial swamp into a thriving town
surrounded with timber laud, pasture
grounds, and rich fields of rice, in
digo, sugar cane, tobacco, and coffee.
His herds alone comprised 3000
head of oxen, 800 buffaloes and COO
horses. For the introduction and per
fection of coffee culture, he received a
prize of S7OOO from the Spanish Gov
ernment. Here he built a church and
school, large warehouses and a manu
factory, and the travelers who visited
his colony wore hospitably entertained
in an elegant residence that he erected
for the comfort of the wife whose early
death sent him back to France a
crushed and disheartened man.
Mine, de la Gironniere was a native
of the Philippines, and it was owing
to Paul's Creole marriage that he ob
tained concessions until then obsti
nately refused to foreigners. An
American friend had called his atten
tion to a young lady in mourning who
passed for one of the most beautiful
senoms of the town, and he had vain
ly explored all the saious oi Bincdocn
for an introduction, when one day, as
ho was writing a prescription for a
chance patient in one of the fine
houses in the Faubourg of Santa Cruz
tho sudden rustling of a silk dress
was followed by the apparition of the
lady. She was eighteen years of age.
Her features were regular aud placid,
her hair black and beautiful, aud her
eyes large and expressive. This was
Anne-Maria Favea, Marquesa tie las
Salinas, tho wealthy and charming
young widow of a Colonel of the
guards who had married her when
but a child.
Paul stammered, got out of the
house awkwardly, went homo iu a
fever, called again, and six months
later was the husband of au excellent
wife. Her fortune, $136,000, invested
in a Mexican venture, was seized by
Colonel Iturbide, who became Em
peror of Mexico, and was dethroned
and shot. This excellent woman bore
every trial with patience. She fol
lowed her husband with the most un
bounded confidence. She welcomed
tho European visitors who camo to
the colony, and she put clothes on the
backs of the dalagas. Quietly she
laid her little girl iu the grave, and
uncomplainingly, as she bid adieu to
the boy who was soon to follow, she
went down into it herself. She was a
teacher of goodness; the narrative of
le geutilhomme bretou sinks to a song
for the dead upon every mention of
her worth; aud the cross of the Le
gion of Honor, accorded him at the
request of Marshal Soult, was little
recompense for the other self that he
had lost in the Lady of Jala-Jala.—

Russia's Priceless Jewels. .
"A whole guide-book devoted siin
ply to the Hermitago could give no sort
of idea of the barbaric splendor of its
belongings," writes Lilian Bell, of
the famous St. Petersburg Museum,
in the Ladies' Home Journal. "Its
riches are beyond belief. Even the
presents given by the Emir of Bok
hara to tho Czar are splendid enough
to dazzle one like a realization of tho
Arabian Nights. But to see the most
valuable of all, which are kept in the
Emperor's private vaults, is to be ro
dueed to a state of bewilderment bor
dering on idiocy. It is astonishing
enough, to one who has bought eveu
ouo ltussian belt set with turquoise
enamel, to think of all tho trappings
of a horse—bit, bridle, saddle-girth,
saddle-cloth ami all—made of cloth of
gold and setin solid turquoise enamel,
with the sword hilt, scabbard, belts
and pistol handle and holster made of
the same. Well, these are there by
the roomful. Then you come to the
private jewels, and you see all these
same accoutrements made of precious
stones—one of solid diamonds; au
other of diamonds, emeralds, topazes
and rubies."
American. Shut Out ot the Fhllippiuea.
As is well kuown, America was su
preme iu the Philippine trade from the
opening of tho export business of the
island on a large scale until within a
few years. The reasons for the decline
of American influence were largely tho
drawing out of capital by the older
members of the great American trad
iug firms, aud their leaving the busi
ness to younger members of their fam
ilies, who found themselves with
great responsibilities and a reduced
capital. Gradually English firms,
with abundant capital, succeeded to the
bulk of the business. The last Ameri
can firms in Manila were crowded out
three years ago by Spanish intrigues,
caused by the hatred of Americans
growiug out of the Cuban troubles.
This overthrow was managed by the
thousand and one petty annoyances of
legal machinery that the Spaniards
exerted against American firms.—J
Scribnei's Magazine.
Oldest Postmistress In the World.

and she was able to perform her du
ties until a short time before her death.
Bunting is the popular fabric for
dresses, being light and suitable for
wear in any weather, although, of
course, the chief reason is that it is

in most demand is blue; army and
navy being the shades most used.
A Remedy For the Telltale Wrinkles.
When fine Ijnes begin to show un

equal quantity of wheat flour. Take
a little of this and mix it into a paste
with clear water. Spread it beneath
the eyes and let it remain an hour,
then moisten it and gently wipe it off.
For wrinkles on other parts of the
face make a paste of white wax and oil
of sweet almonds, and apply it as hot
as can bo borne, using a small pine
stick for tho purpose, that it may bo
applied to the lino and nowhere else.

Feathers in Outlna; Hats.
Fashion decrees that feathers shall
be worn in outing hats. Those for
general wear, bicycling, golf and even
sailor hats are trimmed with wings
and quills. But the more elegant
headdress for wear on strolls is deco
rated with ostrich feathers. The
plumes often have au addition of little
tassels of plain black silk, and flat
velvet spots are placed on white feath
ers. Often the milliners go so far as
to renounce curling altogether, as they
are supposed to show to better ad
vantage the quality of the featller if
plain. White plumes are the most
used. They are frequently shaded or
laid over colored ones.
The Corsage Sachet.
One of the prettiest conceits in fem
inine fancies is a butterfly of white
bolting cloth, embroidered in the most
elaborate pattern. It was sent to a
recent bride and the sender declares
Blie traced tho design from the wings
of a very gorgeous butterfly her small
brother made a captive. Certainly no
artist could have devised one more
odd or more beautiful.
The scalloped wings are padded
just a trifle, the sachet is put in, and
the wings outlined with a double row
of narrow Valenciennes lace.' The
whole is outlined with pink silk. It
is to be pinned on the left side of tho
corsage, and gives the wearer a subtle
perfume that is very fascinating."

Tlie linby'a Sweater.
Tho latest addition to baby's ward
robe is a little white sweater, au exact
copy of his athletic father's or golfing
mother's. Such sweaters havo been sold
for some time for children of three years
old and upward, but the baby sweaters
are something entirely now.
They are very useful littlo things,
and, being made of the finest, softest
wool, are a great addition to baby's
wardrobe. They can bo tucked under
the ruffled pillow of the baby carriage,
and at any sudden change in temper
ature can be slipped on easily and
without much detriment to the lace
trimmed ruffles, and baby can be
wheeled home without the danger of
catching cold. Being all in one piece,
with no opening except for tho head,
they will not fall open at the neck and
expose baby to tho dangers of bron
chitis or laryngitis.
Tho Clilc Thing in Belti..
Belts not only share honors with dress
accessories for this summer's wear,
but seem to claim more attention than
the gown itself. We all wear belts,
be we stcut or lean, bhort or tall, and
no one seems to question their becom
iugness. Jeweled belts have had such
a long run, and are now made in such
cheap imitations, that the belts of
leather and plain metal are more used
by women who must have something
new. The old-time belting of colored
silk in white, black and all the pretty
shades of color are now again in
vogue, and are simply fastened in
front with a clasp. Just at this time,
when war is tho talk of the day, the
leather belt with a clasp in military
style is quite the thing for the sum
mer girl. It is usually quite large,
and, if possible, must have a history
of other war-days.—Woman's Home

Bicyclists and Dogs.
It frequently happens that a bicyclist would
like to drive off au annoying dog, but doesn't
want to kill the beast, run the ri<k of a bullet
hitting a bystander, nor attract the attention
which a cartridge explosion is certain to do.
The dog is consequently encouraged to try his
trick on the next rider. A soundless pistol,
shooting water, ammonia or other liquid, is
now mailed postpaid for 50 cts. in stamps by
the Union Supply Co., 135 Leonard Bt.. N.
City. One of these will drive off the most
vicious animal, and still not really injure it.
A few drops of ammonia in the eyes, nose or
mouth of any animal give it something to
think of other than bothering a cyclist. It is
a boon to wheelmen and wheelwomen.
An lowa phj'sician not long ago had
under treatment a boy suffering from
what seemed to be typhoid. It was
found subsequently that the boy had
swallowed several lemon seeds, which
had remained in the alimentary duct
two weeks and had sprouted fully ons
eighth of an inch long.
