11 Ore Co!onv is now a favorite emi- rrrounds for young Enlish- TV. United State Supreme Court jas upheld the legality of prison sen tences by military and naval courts TTOBDS OF TVISDOH. I Vew Zea!nnd has just passed a law hin requires drunkards to be photo praj'iiod, their pictures labelled and placed in all saloons. Manchester, England, is about to spend about a million to clear out" eome of its worst slums and erect model tenements, with trees planted and playgrounds provided. The Supreme Court of Minnesota lias rendered a decision upholding the State law granting the right of emi nent domain to telephone and tele graph companies. . A Chicago newspaper employed a prominent lawyer to stay in Spring field, 111., to examine and report on the meaning and bearing of all bills introduced into the Legislature. San Bernardino County, California, has tbe villages of Cadiz, Bagdad and Siberia not far apart on the same line of railway; Delaware has Odessa and Smyrna, only fiteen miles apart, while the eastern shore of Maryland has Cordova, Bethlehem, Vienna and Ber lin, all within a radius of thirty miles from the third-named place. Although the northeastern part of New Jersey partakes strongly of the character of New York City, and the region immediately opposite Phila delphia strongly of that city, while almost the whole coast is a summer settlement of aliens, the interior of the State preserves its own character. Old family names survive, old houses are preserved, old mills and old inns are still active, and the strong, early Quaker element remains much as it was 200 vears ago. A unique exhibit at the Cotton States and International Exposition at Atlanta, Ga., will be a model jail. It will show all the latest improvements in prison construction, and will pre sent for inspection a jail complete in 6anitary equipment and absolutely cafe. A prisoner incarcerated within its iron cages will be absolutely pro tected from without, and will find it impossible to escape, even if allowed to work for liberty with the most im proved jail-breaking tools. Lambrecht is a citv in the Palatin- erf ate which manufactures cloth and has many woolen mills. In the middle Rges, for Borne favor or privilege, Lambrecht obliged itself to send an nually on the 1st of April its latest adopted citizen to the neighboring City of Deidesheim, driving a "stately and well fed" he-goat .as a tribute. The man bringing the goat was, ac cording to the documents, to be re garded with a quart of wine and bread and cheese. This tribute has actually been sent every year, early in the morning on the 1st of April, and has been the occasion of much fun and fttivity of late. This year the Lam brecht City Council elected Prince Bismarck an honorary citizen, and ith horror it was discovered that h was the latest member and should bj rights have driven the goat to Deide Wlm this year. The man who hesitates is won. Do not waste time over your grier ances. It always makes a man feel good to sneeze. The street is full of humiliations to j toe proud. So many people are actuated by pure cussedness. What we learn with, pleasure wc never forget J Some people do nothing tut talk encouragingly. Patience is the road to advancement in all lines of life. Prosperity is a blessing to the good, a curse to the evil. A small debt produces a debtor; a large one an enemy. Many try but few succeed in borrow ing themselves rich. Few men are so clever as to know all the mischief they do. A perfectly bright girl can do with out a light in the parlor. Nothing is more reasonable and cheap than good manners. When the State is most corrupt then the laws are most multiplied. In a great many cases a woman's faith in a man is a sort of stubborn ness. When a woman wants to laugh in her sleeve she is not cramped for lack of room. Clothes do not make the man, but they have a good deal to do in making a woman. A mother ! thinks her daughter's faithful piano practice is sweet music. That is love. : To dally much with subjects mean and low, proves that the minci is weak or makes it sq. The South-West. A Simple Means ol Transportation. The ascent of mountains and the carrying of necessary articles up very steep inclines necessitate an enormaus amount of labor and time. It is pos sible to put up wire rope tramways at a very small expense, and have these so arranged that loads can be brought up a minimum of the cost and trou ble now involved. A sample of this device is a wire tramway recently put up at Gibraltar. It connects, the signal station at the top of the rock with the town below. There are two ropes, 320 yards long, leading to the mountain. An engine works the ropes which are able to sus tain a weight of seventy tons. The transit from the town to the station occupies scarcely five minutes, where formerly it took a whole day. On the general principle of the car riage line that delivers parcels and change in stores, an effective and rapid means of transit between the various points may be secured. The rope tramway idea is yet in its infancy, but before another ten years have passed this invention will be util ized to connect buildings of all sorts. It would be of untold value could a single rope and basket be so arranged that one might pass from house to out buildings, regardless of snow, storm, or rain, stepping from one sheltered entry at thehouse to another at tho barn withnut coming in contact with the groundk The time and need are here, and only await the inventive genius whi shall put these into prac tical operations. New York Ledger. Green N Protection to the Eyes. The rag3 for green as the color which best protects the eyes is severe ly condemned by Professor Fuchs, o! Vienna. He denies that it has any beneficial effect whatever, and tha green newspapers, green glasses and green umbrellas are all a mistake. Hit theory is, at all events, plausible. It is that ea.ch different color tires a dif ferent set' of nerves and vision, and, therefore, looking at one particular color saves one set of nerves at the ex pense of another. The best method, he points out, is co dim all the rays of light by smoked or gray glasses, -which rest all the optic nerves. Lon don Globe. ; A Fine Specimen. A certain rich man was very fond of exhibiting his pictures in an ostenta tious and patronizing manner to artists of his acquaintance. One day a young painter lunched with him, and was es corted around his gallery, and the youth, wishing to curry favor with a possible patron, exclaimed after every picture exhibited: "And a very fine specimen of that master!" The picture owner, however, though he was rich, had a sense of humor, and, noticing his audience stifling a yawn, said: r- "Now, here is a remarkably fine Sal volatile, you perceive." "And a very fine specimen of that master!" exclaimed the artist, enthusiastically. Her Romance Ended. "ies, i gave mm up, ' sighed the young woman in the pink wrapper. "Did he prove' unworthy of your af fection?" inquired the sympathetic young woman jin the pale-green gown. "He he became a spelling reform- j er," rejoined the other with a shudder, "and signed his name Morj.' It took all the poetry and romance out of the name. It was more than I could en dure." And as the.hoarse night winds moan ed and shrieked outside, and the lone some and despairing cat in the back alley lifted up its voice and howled In agony of soul i he two friends sat and gazed drearnily into the Are. A man is fickle if he breaks a mar riage engagement, but he is dishon orable, a traitor, and a wretch if he waits until after she has eecc a dressmaker. Foul breath is a discourager of af fection. It is al-waj-s an indication of poor health bad digestion. To bad digestion is traceable almost all human ills. It is the starting point J of many very ser ious maladies. Upon the healthy action of the diges t i v e organs, the blood depends for its richness and purity. If digestion stops, poisonous matter-accumulates and is forced into the blood there is no place else for it to go. The bad breath is a danger signal. Look out for it ! If you have it, or any other symptom of indigestion, take a bottle or two of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It will straighten out the trouble, make your blood pure and healthy and full of nu triment for the tissues. fefLJt 5 SfrS "In all my cil.reer," said the eminent statesman, "I can say that I have never done anything o be ashamed of." "You mean," sneered the C3'nic, "that you have never done anything you were ashamed of. "Indianapolis Journal.
