DALY AND HACKMAN.
y New Story Told of the Late Montana
Copper Klug.
When Marcus Daly was In Wash
ington last it is told that he performed
a humane act which very nearly
brought a brutal hack driver into the
police court, and was a topic of con
versation at the hotel and other places
which Daly frequented. The story es
caped the vigilance of the local news
paper fraternity, and is here published
for the first time. Daly was coming
out of Chamberlain's one morning
when he espied a negro hackman
brutally belaboring a crippled old
horse with a heavy whip in an almost
futile effort to increase its speed from
a walk to a slow trot, says the Wash
ington Post. Daly hailed the driver,
who quickly drew rein and approached
the curb with the prospects of obtain
ing a fare. "Where do you want to
go to, boss?" inquired the negro. 'Til
want to go with you to the police court
if you don't stop beating that poor old
horse," replied the millionaire. "You
could coax the nag along faster with a
/ handful of oats and a wisp of bay in
front of him than you can by beating
him from behind. When did you feed
him last?" The negro complained that
times were hard, that fares were scarce
and that he could not afford to pro
vide better for his horse. Daly saw
the force of the argument at once and
inquired how much the cabman aver
aged a week, and was told that $8 or
$lO was considered a good wage. D.'Jy
reached down in his vest pocket and
drew forth a roll of bills, from which
he peeled a S2O note and handed it to
the astonished negro. "There, take
that," said the copper king, "and put
that rack of bones in the barn and
treat him to a banquet of hay and corn
and if I see you with liirn on the streets
in the next tv/o weeks I'll have you
flrrpfltftri. "

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
What suffering' frequently results
from a mother's ignorance; or more
frequently from a mother's neglect to
properly instruct her daughter !
Tradition says "woman must suf
fer," 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, Mas 3.
Mrs. August Pfalzgrnf, of South
Byron, Wis., mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation
iiad headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
•. replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicino for regu
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.
Mothers.
Mothers are the queerest things!
'Member when John went away,
All hut mother cried and cried
When they said good-by that day.
She just talked, and seemed to bo
Not the slightest bit upset—
Was the only one who smiled!
Others' eyes were streaming wet.
But when John came back again
On a furlough, safe and sound,
With a medal for his deeds
And without a single wound,
While the rest of us hurrahed,
Laughed and joked ami danced about,
Mother kissed him, then she cried—
Cried and cried like all git out!
—Edwin L. Sabin, in Century.
How 11i Klpplinnt Slueps.
One of the most erropeous of the
many queer ideas which the layman
has on the questions of natural his
tory is the one respecting the ele
phant's mode of sleeping. Even the
old schools of naturalists declared that
the elephant has never been known to
sleep except in a standing position. Of
late, however, say within the last cen
tury, it has been learned that tne er
ror came about by persons studying
the habits of such beasts as had not
been long in captivity. Such animals,
When undergoing the process of domes
tication, have been known to stand for
12, 18 or even 24 months without once
lying down to sleep. This is regarded
as a want of- confidence in their keep
ers, coupled with longing desire for
liberty. When elephants are perfect
ly at ease and reconciled to their fate,
they will lie down on uieir sides and
sleep as all other beasts do.
A Hear Aboard Ship.
"Boars make good pets," said Lieu
tenant Clark. "When I was in the rev
enue service at Alaska we had one on
the boat and he made things hum. We
named him Wineeka. He used to climb
to the crosstrees, going up hand over
hand by the ratlins. One day he ven
tured out on the yardarm. and there
he stayed. We had to get a rope and
haul him down. Once he vaulted over
the head of our Chinese cook and went
into the locker, where he helped him
self to sugar and butter. We had a
tackling made for him, much the same
as a harness of a pet pug, and would
drop him overboard, with a rope at
tached, to take his bath. Once he
landed in a native boat and nearly
frightened the occupants out of their
wits. He was as playful as a kitten,
and although sometimes he disobeyed
he was never treacherous or unkind.
When he was lost or hid himself, as he
often did, we would look in the dark
till we saw two balls of fire. These
were his eyes, and gave him away ev
ery time."—New Orleans Picayune.
A Noble Dog.
A gentleman recently sold his villa
Just out side Paris to move into a flat
within the city walls: On leaving the
country he parted with his Danish
boarhound, too big an animal for a
Paris fiat, to a gamekoeper of the dis
trict. The new owner found the cost
of keeping so big a dog too great. Ho
decided to be rid of him. With this
idea he took the dog out in a boat to
the middle to the neighboring Marne,
tied a stone to hi 3 neck and pushed
him over. But the stone came untied,
and the Dane swam after the boat. The
gamekeeper struck the poor dog with
an oar, so that the water was dyed
with blood; but still the Dane swam
after the boat. Enraged at his persis
tency, the gamekeeper rose and swung
his oar to strike the Dane again, so vi
olently this time that he overbalanced
and fell into the water. The game
keeper could not swim, and must have
been drowned, had not the noble Dane
come to the rescue and held him up
till he managed to clamber into the
boat again. A revulsion of feeling took
place. The gamekeeper bound up the
wound in the dog's head, and he now
says that death alone shall part him
from his dog.—Le Temp 3.
A Hull Story.
When I was a little girl mamma
gave me a large doll. This new doll
was very pretty; for she had round,
rosy cheeks, bright blue eyes, nnd
black, curly hair—of course, make-be
lieve hair, for she had a china head
and a kid body.
My dolly, when mamma gave her
to me, was dressed in a gown of lovely
blue silk and a cunning white apron
trimmed with lace; and upon her feet
were some little black kid shoes, or
"ankle-ties." Oh, how I loved dear
pretty dolly!
I could not think of a name nice
enough for my precious china baby
until one Saturday afternoon, when
school did not keep, mamma took mo
to a "show," where I saw some "little
people," pretty little dwarf people. I
well remember Tom Thumb and La
vinia Warren—a tiny grown up man
and a tiny grown up woman, not much
larger than good-sized dolls. On the
way home, I said, "Oh, mamma, I am
going to name my dolly Lavinia War
ren!"
Near the house where I lived when a
little girl there was a stone wall; and
I loved to go out there with Lavinia
In my arms, and climb up and sit on
the wall, and look off at the fields of
green grass and watch the little birds
hopping about in the trees, end gaze
up at the bread blue sky beyond the
treelops.
I was a very little girl, you know,
and mamma often told me I was care
less and forgetful. Therefore, I must
have been naughty sometimes, and not
have tried to remember to "hold on
tight" to anything I had in my hands.
I know you will say, "How could
you have been so forgetful!" when I
tell you that one day I dropped poor
Lavinia Warren upon the wall, and her
pretty pink face, with her blue eyes
and black curly hair, was "smashed"
on the stones! Oh, how I cried! lam
to mamma, crying and sobbing, "La
vinia Warren's broke!"
Mamma took me in her lap, and said:
"Don't cry, my little girl! Crying won't
mend Lavinia's head." And then she
took me by the hand, and went with
me to the spot where headless Lavinia
was lying. Her dear little kid arms
and her little upturned feet, and her
pretty face all scattered about her,
caused me to cry more than ever. I
shall never forget that sight.
Mamma bought mo another dolly,
but tliic new one had a wooden head.
I was fond of her. Still, I never loved
her as I did dear Lavinia Warren. But
I have always remembered since that
sad mishap, to "hold on tight." Mam
ma said I would not forget again, and
I have not. —Ray Laurance, in Little
Folks.
The Storv of Dick, flic Turtle.
Dick's life is not all sleeping and
worm hunting. Every second clay he
has a long swim in the bath, and he
has certain social and domestic duties
to perform which are very important.
When company is expected Dick has
to wear his swellest garb, a broad
crimson ribbon, which is tied around
his shell, and into a huge bow upon his
back. So attired, he gravely marches
about as if ho considered himself no
unimportant personage. When all the
pets are "dressed up" with similar rib
bons, the effect is very comical.
Dick has to do his share of the work,
too; for this is insisted upon by a very
young lady, whose commands are not
to be trifled with. She owns a small
cart and a vague number of dolls, in
cluding one'springy rubber man.
To the hinder edge of Dick's shell
is affixed a ring—a solid gold one. by
the way; for it rightly belongs to the
ste m of a certain watch. The cart has
a cord and a gold snap, which should
be at the end of a watch chain I know
of. This snap is fastened to the ring,
| the lady dolls are seated in the cart,
| the springy rubber man is placed upon
Dick's back, and hay!—away they all
I go for a 10-foot dash down the stone
walk.
I This performance never fails to de-
I light the young lady who owns the
I dolls, while Dick does not mind it in
| the least. One terrible day—l almost
! shudder to think of it—the rain had
j left a pool about four inches deep at a
1 low spot in the walk. Dick was hitched
I up to take his party for its usual air
i Ing; and lo! "he yunned away," as the
' young lady put it. Away he went full
\ gallop, straight for the pool. The par
ty came near being drowned!
So exciting was the work of rescue
and the restoring to consciousness of
the lady passengers that the rubber
man was forgotten. Later, after the
pool had been dragged and everything
possible had been done, he was found
in a thick growing plant, where Dick
had left him a la Absalom.
Dick for a time strove to makt
friends with the black turtle; but of
late lie lias discovered his own image
in a mirror which extends to the floor
of the studio. He climbs up the carved
! moulding, and intently regards his re
flection for an hour at a time. Wheth
er he fancies that he has found some
captive maiden of his race or merely
desires to be sociable, as other turtles
are upon logs, 1 am not prepared to
| say.
! Taken up on his merits Dick is a harm
; loss and most interesting pet. Tie has
i Already shown much more intelligence
and I should not be astonished if a
! few year? of good treatment developed
his faculties much further. —Our Ani

One day. while riding a donkey
through the country west of Pekin, 1
noticed that the women of the country
villages, mostly farmers' wives and
daughters, did not bind their feet. 1
; said to the donkey driver, who was
running along beside me, "The coun
try women do not bind their feet, do
they?"
"No."
"Why?"
"They do not bind their feet.'*
"Why is it that the Chinese women

! "They bind their feet."

Boeri' Pronpect of Fraadom.
Howard Gregg, of San Francisco,
who spent several years In Johannes
burg, says that the Boer Is not fight
ing for a hopelessly lost cause. By
that, he continued, I do not mean that
he will again occupy the position he
did prior to the commencement of hos
tilities, but I am inclined to the opin
ion that sooner or later a peace will
be declared, in which greater or less
freedom and independence to the Boers
as a nation will be guaranteed. Cer
tainly Edward VII. 's proclamation
naming Milner as a paramount lord of
the Transvaal would seem to point in
this direction. If England doesn't
compromise with the Boers they will
make her tenure of the country a dis
agreeable and expensive thing. I be

Oh, those nerves of ours, how they
do bother us! Weak, tired, and ner
vous is the conipluint everywhere.
We overwork, dissipate, weaken our
bodies, ruin our health, and finally
break down. Sleeplessness and indi
gestion are early symptoms, for the
nerves are too exhausted and irritable
to permit rest, and the stomach too
weak to digest food.
It is nerve and brain exhaustion
which makes the brain tired, and the
arm nerveless, the limbs trembling,
the muscles weak, and the whole body
without strength, energy or ambition.
It is loss of nerve and vital power
which is slowly but surely sapping the
very life itself, and unless help is
sought from the right source, the end
will be shattered nerves, insanity with
softening of tho brain, nervous pros
tration, heart failure, paralysis or pre
mature death.
