There has just arrived in our coun try an old man of ninety-three years a native of Galicia, which he left seventy two years ago to seek his fortune in America. This venerable nonagenarian, whose name is Lucas Negreiras Paez, is accompanied by a lrttle family composed of Sixteen daughters, of whom six are widows, nine wives and one unmar ried. Twenty three sons, of whom four are widowers, thirteen married and six unmarried. Thirty-four granddaughters, of whom three are widows, twenty-two married and nine Onmarried. Forty -seven grandsons, of whom four are windowers, twenty six mar ried and seventeen unmarried. Forty-five great-granddaughters,of whom eighteen are married and twenty-seven single. Thirty-nine great grandsons, all single. Three great-great-granddaughters. Seventy -two sons-in-law and daugh ters in-law. A total of 279 persons. This good great grandfather was three times married and had by his three wives thirty-nine children, the last of whom was born in Boston, in 1884, when Paez was 65 years of age. The "first born child is now seventy years old. He has had seventeen children, the oldest of whom is forty seven, and Is, therefore, twenty-eight years older than his uncle, the last child of his grandfather. Don Lucas Negreiras Paz is quite rich, having amassed considerable money in the leather trade at Boston. The business is still conducted .by some members of the family which includes doctors, lawyers, engineers, druggists, merchants, &c. The ship upon which he came to Europe be longs to him and was commanded by his own grandson, who is a captain. The old man is quite stroag and in excellent health. Every day he takes two hours' gymnastic exercise, walks for two hours,, and himself educates the children of his grandchildren. He has never drank wine or spirits. He does not smoke. He proposes to end his days in Galicia. He is now at Madrid, where he will shortly be presented to the King. Barcelona Letter in the Pari? UEvenement. J. Gould's Yacht Atlanta.

In these days of rowing giants and athletic heroes fine physical develop ment is more observed than ever be fore since the time.- of the Athenian games. A .man who shows tbe ele ments of i '.ysical power looked up to far more than in the days of our ancestors possibly because there a.-e fewer specimens of well-developed manhood than then. An " emissary Names, of Waterloo. His muscles, which showd unusual development, wereasharda3 wood . A t h is request the writer sought to pinch him in the arms or legs, but f iund it wholly impossible. A realization of what is meant by an iron man was fully made manifest. "Have you always been so stalwart as this?" inquired the news gatherer. 4,Not by any means," was the re ply. 4 'When a ybung man I was al ways strong and active and felt that I could accomplish anything. This feeling so took possession of me on one occasion that I attempted to lift a box which four men found it impossi ble to move. I succeeded in placing it on the wagon, but in two minutes from that time I was unconscious and remained so lor hours and when 1 recovered consciousness I vomited a lar&' quantity of blood. From th; c day I began to grow weak and sickly. I believed that I had suffered some internal injury and e.perienced a general debility, which seemed simi lar to the effects produced by malaria. My hick was very weak. I had no appetite, and at times loathed food My lips was parched and cracked. My head felt as though it were en tirely open at the top and it pained me on the side intense. In six weeks' time 1 had fallen away from 208 pounds to less than 17U. I was in a most wretched condition. I was completely discouraged.' "What did the doctors say about you?" ""Almost everything. I consulted no less than six different physician's. They all treated ine and none did me any good. At that time I was suffer ing intensely. 1 could notsit upright but was obliged to rest in a cramped, uneasy position. I was compelled to urinate every five minutes and I r assed over three quarts every day. was not living. 1 was existing. One night (how well I remember it!) my wife had put the children all in bed when the feeling came over me that I should live but a very short time. My wife and I talked matters all over and I gave the minutest directions as to what she should do after 1 was gone. I was not in a flighty condition by an' means for the doctor , on leaving town the day following, bade me good bye, saying he never expected to see me again, for I was suffering with Bright s disease of the kidneys in its last stages. Within the next few days more than twenty friends came to bid me good bye. Among the number was Dr. John L. Clark. He asked me what I had used in the way of medicines. I told him. Hp then recommended a remedy of which I had heard much, but about which I was very skeptical. If faith were-an element of power it certainly was lacking' in my case." "And so you did not try it?" ''On the contrary, I did try it and to my surprise it seem to go to just j the spot indeed, it was the most j palatable thing I had taken into my !

I sup pose I once had as great a prejudice against advertised medicines as any one could have. When I was study ing medicine at Ann Arbor, Michi gan, I used to vow with the rest of the class that we should fight all such remedies at all times. When a man comes down to the last hour, how ever, and bid his wife and friends good bye, such bigoted prejudices a9 these all vanish, I can assure you and any remedy that can cure is gladly welcomed." 1 "And how have you been since then.?" : "As well or better, than before." "Do you still exert your strength?' 4 'Certainly. But I do not over exert, as formerly. My strength is increasing every day, and my health is number one. I know that my life wa3 saved by Warner's Safe Cure, and I believe it is the best medicine that was ever compounded by any chemist or physician. I am willing the doctors, should sneer at me for such a statement if they choose, but I have proven its truth, and am pre pared to stand by it The above experience should be of great value to all who are suffering. It shows the deceptive nature of this terrible malady; that all symptoms are common toitand that there ibut one way by which it can he absolute ly avoided. -i:er. Waterloo. X. Y..

A Georgia Man's Way, It was a bleak, raw, April day as we ran down into South Carolina. There was no fire in the coach, nor would there have been need of any if the windows could have been kept dow-n. A chap from Quitman, Ga., who haI lately peeled off his flannels and whofelft as cold as a sheared lamb.succeeded after awhile in getting all the windows down but one. That was on the right hand side, third seat from the front, and the seat was oc cupied by a fat man with a red face. "Sir won't you please lower that window?" asked the Georgian. "What for?" "To keep out the cold." "I'm none too cold." "But it lets du3t in." "I have no objections to dust." Nothing further was said, but the Georgian presently opened the stove door and took out about a pint of ashes and wrapped them up, and at the next station he dropped off the car and took the one ahead. Ten minutes after starting up the train entered a deep cut and the fat man was observed to bob off his seat and dig his eyes and jump up and down as if he had hornets in his bootlegs. Indeed, he" swore ewore black and blue and green. He swore he'd sue the company, and swore he'd kill the engineer, and it was a good two hours before he could open one eye wide enough to swear that in his first mo ment of surprise his gold spectacles had fallen off and he had trampled them under foot. , 'T wonder what got into his eyes?" I asked of the Georgian. "Lfime, I reckon, as we were run ning through".,. a limestone cut just then," he calmly replied, as he looked up from his paper. Detroit Free Press. - .

" Marr ins a Head Wife's Sister. The English House of Ldrds has again rejected the bill legalizing the ! marriage of a man to his dead wife's sister. The vote was 140 to i45. We hope the day is not far distant when the old foggy concern of "House of Lords" will be squelched and abolislf ed by the English people.

Mr. McQueen marrying his wife's sister, will be remembered by many of our citizens. A good, but eccentric old divine, Lv. Colin Mclver of Favettaville. led the. oppo sition to such marriages, and much bad feel Lag and hard word occurred, i but we think Mr. McQueen was final- j" y justified in marrying his dead wife's sister, though the Presbyte rians have always refused to change their church edicts against such marriages, but acquiesce when they occur. The Quarrel between the McQueen and anti McQueen party was very bitter according to our recollect ion. it seems to us tnat u t.iere 1 anv- thing reasonable i: this world, it is, that men should he permitted to mar Ty their dead wife's vsister, where ti.e parties are willing to do so and the proper affection prevails.

Minnesota millers no longer "grind'' wheat into flour. They "crack'' it and the people of the Northwest, claim that the new process makes their hitherto inferior wheat the most val uable in the world. Burr stones are j ! things of the nast and Hunrrarian i steel rollers have taken their place. These rollers are about thirty inches long and eight inches in diameter. It takes five sets, of steel rollers to finish the flour. Each set- oil jailers runs closer than the preceding. AfterthT - - wheat passes each set of rollers it is bolted or sifted through coarse cloth, This cloth lets the disintegrated par- tides of wheat through and passes off the bulky and larger pieces, which are run through another and a closer set of rollers and cracked again. The last rollers have little else but wheat hulls and waxy germs of wheat, which do not crack up, but smash down like a piece of wax. The germ of a kernel of wheat is not good food. It makes flour black. By the old millstone process this wazy germ was ground up with the starchy portiou and bolted through with the flour.
