beautiful spring mornino, while the
sweet south wind is breathing its
balmy odors upon us, I was ruminat

and sorrow, and .-f I wondered why
both were not more evenly distributed.
Why should bad luck and peril over
take some and leave others? Why
should the illfated Naronic go down
with all on board and the Aurania
come safe to port ? Why should one
man fall in battle and his comrade
escape unharmed ? Is it fate or pro

one should be taken and the other

What a shock it is to the civilized
world when a ship goes down at . sea
and passengers crew.
Sink into the depth with bubbling groau
Unknelled, uncoffined, and unknown.
Why is it, why does it so harrow
up our feelings and provoke our ten
derest sympathies? Here are 6,000
people dying"every year in the Unit-

neral procession 560 miles long. Not
less than 50,000 kindred are bereaved
and mourn for them, and yet aU cof
fins and graves and saddened hearts
and homes do not concern the public
like the sinking of a ship at sea. The
manner of the death Is so horrible.
IndppH drmvnino is said tn h thf
least reohlsive of all deaths for it is
said to be painless, the agony of mind
is soon over, and yet it is an awful
calamity. No help; no kindred, no
last word3, no messages of love, no
requiem ; no flowers on the grave! In
my early youth the shock of the loss
of the pilot in which Theodorsea All
ston perished.! has not passed away.
She was the beautiful daughter ot
Aaron Burr. That ship went down'
with all on board and no one knew '
when or where," and the whole south
was grieved. She had married a dis-
tineruished son of South Carolina and
was herself the great grand daugter
of Jonathan Edwards, and her beauty
and her loveliness had saved her la
ther from being convcited of treason.
It was a tender story that my father
used to tell me and I loved such
things,- and I love them yet. The'
next disaster that shocked the country
in my youth was the loss of the Home

when almost in sight of land. I re
member Georgia mourned for Oliver
Prince, her most distinguished law
yer, who sank with that vessel. .He
was our United States senator and
the gifted author. of many sketches.
Had he sickened and died at home
not half the grief and sympathy
would have been manifested by the
public heart. We are more reconcil
ed to the inevitable than to the un
seen, unexpected stroke that comes
at sea from mighty hand of God." We
all desire to die at home - at home,
where loving hands can. smooth the
aching head and loving eyes look
down into our own and weep. I do,
and if I don't get better,-1 am not
going far away any more. There is
nothing sadder to me than to see
kindred, who are near and dear
gather at the depot to meet the
corpse of a son or a daughter who
had died in a strange land and whose
last request was to be taken home
But I do not know why my thoughts
have run this way for the day is
bright and the birds are singing and
the fruit trees are in bloom and there
is nothing to make me sad nothing
save the struggling child that every
little while has to rack her little frame
with that relentless cough and often
when it is over, to hear her say : "Oh,
I am so tired. I wish that we could
divide out pain and trouble and that
I could take part of hers. Yes ; and

Confederate
Made.
Money was
It took money to carry on the
war.
The Southern Confederacy started
to oppose the invading foes with an
empty Treasury. So a "promise to
pay" had to be resorted to.
One ot the first things to be done
by the Treasury of the young nation
was to issue legal tender of some
kind.
The making of Confederate bonds,
and notes was a great, .trial with the
young Treasury. In the South no
engravers could be found, and noth
ing like good bank paper.
So arrangements were made to
print .some bonds in New York.
The work was gone about very care
fully, and every means 'used to avoid
detection. But the bonds .were
seized, however, before tliey left
"New York. These bonds were
printed by the American Bank Note
Company, and when the Federal
authorities found this out, through a
telltale employee, the Southern Con
federacy
had to rely upon its own
to get up bonds and notes.
resources
An engraver of cards and posters
by the name of Iloyer, a German by
nationality, lived in Richmond, and
he was employed to issue the first
notes, which were eight one-hundred-dollar
bills. One of these bills would
bring considerable now as a relic.
A paper was smuggled through
the lines from New York and given
to Hoyer. He had only old and
inferior stones for engraving pur
poses, and with them he made the
first Confederate Treasury notes.
The stones had previously been used
to engrave placards.
Of course they were faulty and full
of errors, and under any other cir
cumstances would have been thrown
away, but some kind of legal tender
had to be secured at once, and the
rude notes were accepted. . .. .
When the Secretary read the
proofs he ordered them printed, in
dorsing on the margin of the proof
the following: '"When the money
changers become familiar with these
incoming bills it will be as difficult to
pass a counterfeit as if they had been
engraved on steel perhaps more
SO.
The German engraver used what
was an old fashioned press even in
that day, and the bills were printed
by hand, a yery slow and tedious
process.
These rude, uncouth bills found no
buyers, but were accepted in good
faith by loyal Southern hearts. They
; were pledges of a brave, fearless
people, and by that people were ac
cepted as such.
They were not worth much upon
their face, but thousands of men died
to give them value, and three' times
as many died to make them worth
less. Soon the country way flooded
with Confederate bills. The number
circulated dePended on how fast the
Treasury could issue them. Bills of
small denominations soon went out
of style, and nothing under $100 left
the Treasurer's hands, while $500
! arid $1,000 bills were as numerous as
5 bills are to-day.
Of course the price of everything
went up, and it was a mere bagatelle
to pay $200 for a yard of flannel, or
300 for a pound of coff ee, or .$1,000

for a pair of boots, or $10,000 for

Worthless as were these "promises
to pay," they cost -more than any
tender ever issued by a nation on
earth. They were issued in integrity,
defended in valor and bathed in
priceless blood.

To a'few Congressmen who have
talked with him on the subject, Mr.
Cleveland has intimated that he will
call.an extra session of Congress to
dispose " of the tariff" question. No

session will begin either in September
.or October. Beyond the decision to
call the extra session no details for
the, consideration "ofT Congress have
been arranged, and the subject has
progressed no further than the deter

one or the: other -of the months
named. Mr. Cleveland,", it is said,
was led to call the session by the Re
publican defeat of 1890 following so
close on the enactment of the McKtn
ley tariff law. He believes that a fair
test of a new; tariff law cannot be had
in a few months,-and he has therefore
deemed' it wise to: have ' Congress as

I wish the holy sepulcher and Gol
gotha and the grotto of Bethlehem, and
the summit and ridge of Olivet had been
left as nature made them instead of be-
ig disfigured and disguised by the . mis
guided zeal of Christian piety. They lose
much of their impressiTeneE; through an
ignorant desire to make them more im
pressive. And it is lamentable to reflect that the
holiest spot in the Holy Landthat which
was sprinkled with the-lif eblood of in
carnate God and witnessed his victory
fererieath, should have been indirectly
the cause oi more carnage than any
other spot on earth.
, For if "arrayed not only Christendom
against Islam pn many a bloody field,
but also one-half of ;Christendoln against
the other, ending in the capture and sack
of Constantinople by the Latins in 1204
the greatest political crime ever perpe
trated in Christendom, for not only were
the atrocities committed by the Latins
worse than those of the Turks, but to
gether with the weakening of the east
ern empire by previous crusades the
Latin conquest of Constantinople broke
down the bulwark Christian Europe
against the Turks. They had a footing
on the European s? le of the Bosporus
before, but they covl 4 ncv have inate
good their conquests in Europe without
possession of Constantinople.
Even in our own generation we have
seen one of the greatest wars of modern
times originating in: a dispute between
Christian nations abont the sceue of our
Lord's death and burial a war which
cost our country streams of precious
blood and added 100,000.000 to our na
tional debt. And the jealousies, intrigues
and bad blood which that sacred shrine
still engenders among .rival Christian
communions, making our , holy religion
odious in the eyes of unbelievers, may
well make a Christian wish that, had it
been possible, the place of Christ's burial
had never been known. Canon MacColl

Her Store Teeth as a "lissilc.
A'peculiar case is soon to be tried at
Jamestown, N. Y. Mrs Lena Daven
court and Mi s. Nelson Bayne had been
neighbors and good friends for 15 years
until about two years ago, when Mrs.
Davencourf s husband died, leaving a
blooming and most fascinating widow,
at least in Nelson .Bayne's eyes, or his
wife avers. Every day. when the' gen
tleman went home to his dinner and re
turned to his place of business, Mrs.
Davenconrt was in the habit of being in
her garden, and having in readiness a
bouquet of her choicest flowers to hand
with her sweetest smile to her neighbor
as he passed. . .
At first Mrs. Bayne paid no attention
to this, but observing that her husband
lingered each day longer and longer at
the widow's' gate she warned him that
this -business had to cease and imme
diately. This was' followed by 110 cessa
tion - of the conversations and exchange
of flowers and 'sweet glances over the
gate.J and the offended wife then remon
strated with the widow, who retaliated
by only laughing heartily at what she
palled 'Mrs. Bayne's foolish jealousy.
Mrs, Bayne then became bo infuriated
.that in her struggles to esprcss her rage
and indignation her set of false teeth fell
out, when, picking them up, she hurled
them at her enemy, cutting a deep gash
in Mrs, Davencourt's upper lip, disfigur
ing her to some extent, and the widow
has brought suit against,Mrs. Bayae for
assault and battery with a weapon used
for the first" time for such a purpose.

How Dahomey Warriors Are Trained.
The famous women warriors of Da
homey, who have fought so desperately
against the French troops, are trained
for service with a severity beside which
the discipline of our soldiers is luxurious
ease, They a?fl recruited from girls of
13 or 14 years, and also from the ranks
of evildoers, for any crime is pardoned
to the woman who enlists aijnong the
amazons. They are compelled to sleep
outdoors in all Mads of" weather, to suf
fer blows and kicks without complaint
and are often kept starving for days.
For the purpose of acquiring proficiency
in scaling walls the scantily clothed
warriors are compelled to clamber to the
top of walls thickly covered with thorny
cactuses, the ground beneath being
strewn with broken glass. ;
; Before' going into buttle liberal quan
tities of rum are given to them to. give
them the daring recklessness which
marks their attacks. They fire rapidly
for a little time, then charge upon the
enemy with their knives, and even when
shot down will fight to the last breath,
stabbing blindly at their as? pilanta and
biting and tearing at their legs when
they can no longer stand. New York

Dr S. Ro3- 1 must acknowled thr-
Obligations that I am under to you for
the cure you have efiect on my daugli
terls eyes. Last winter my daughter
Salie was taken sick with typhoid le
ver! and was confined to her bed for
several months. She had been given
up to die tor several times, but with the
help of our Creator.got better.Afterlshe
got well of the 'fever she was left quite
blind ; 111 fact she was so bad oir that
she could not see anything before her.
all she could tell was betwixt daylight
and dark. One day an Ophtalmic
Doctor came to see her and pronounced
her nearly blind. Then lie nersnnfifd
rtmj - iiiicu ner Willi glasses, anu she
soon went to read and could read the
smallest print, in fact she could read
out of a small testament. That was
surprising to everybody who saw her
pronounced blind. But now she can
see as well as anybody, and with lhe
help of Almighty God and your treat
ment, she is restored to sound sight. I
cannot say enough in your, favor and
hope this will induce others to try your
treatment before giving up all hopes of
recovery.
I am sir, your obedient servant,
Allec Wade.

Persons who are subject to attacks
of bilhous colic can almost invariably
tell, by their feelings, when to ex
pect an attack. If Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhcea Remedy
is taken as soon as these symptoms
appear, they can ward off the disease.
Such persons should always keep the
Remedy at hand, ready for immediate
use when needed. Two or three
does of it at the right time will save
them much suffering. For sale by
