NAPOLEON'S ORIENTAL DREAMS.
He ImH te Follow lm the roocatepe of
Alexander the Onk
Bonaparte was a child of tlie Mediter
ranean. , The ligbt of its sparkling wa
ter was ever in bis eyes, and the fasci
nation of its ancient civilisations was
never absent from his dreams of glory.
Bis proclamations ring with classic al
lusions ; his festivals were adorned with
clossio ceremony. In infancy he had
known of Genoa, the tyrant of his is
land, as strong in the splendid commer
cial enterprises which stretched east
ward through the Levant and beyond
into the, fartheskorient In childhood he
had fed his imagination on the histories
of Alexander the Groat and his conquest
of oriental empires. In youth he had
thought to find an open door for his am
bition when all others seemed closed by
taking service with England to share
the renown of those who were building
up her eastern empire. Disappointed in
this, he turned with the same lack of
success to Russia, already England's ri
val on the continent of Asia.
It is perfectly comprehensible that
throughout bis early manhood his mind
should have occasionally reverted to the
same ideals. The conqueror of Italy and
Austria might hope to realise them.
Was he not master of the two great
maritime commonwealths which had
once shared all eastern trade between
them? England's intrusion upon the
Mediterranean basin was a never ceasing
irritation to all the Latin powers. Her
commercial prosperity and her mastery
of the seas aggravated the exasperation
of France as threatening even her equali
ty in their ancient rivalry. From the
days of the first crusade all Frenchmen
had felt that leadership in the recon
struction of Asia belonged to them by
virtue or preoccupation. Ardent repub
licans, moreover, saw France's mission
incomplete in the liberalizing of the
continent, and the department of marine
under the directory stamped its paper
with the motto, "Liberty of the Seas. "
Imaginative forces, the revolution
ary system and the national ambition
all combined to create ubiquitous en
thusiasm for the conquest of the Med
iterranean. To this the temperament
and training of Bonaparte were as the
spark to the tinder. It was with willing
ears that the directory heard his first
suggestions about the Venetian isles and
subsequently his plans for the capture
of Malta, which was to be followed by
a death blow to England's supremacy in
the seizure of Egypt and the dismem
berment of Turkey. W. M. Sloane'i

A SPIDER FARM.
A Slrnp Bottler Bu IwralM Mm Spidea
Against Bis Foes With Saveeess.
A sirup bottler has improved upon the
prison lesson of Bruce. He has taken
the spider into partnership in the work
ing of one of his most important depart
ments. Flies, cockroaches and other in
sects, attracted by his sweets, and en
couraged by the genial atmosphere of
his bottling room, used to interfere with
his work, get into his bottles, steal his
goods and "worry him to death." He
has recruited the spider against his foes
and vanquished them. Some 6,000 spi
ders now make their home on the ceiling
and walls of his bottling department.
Their webs are everywhere, and they be
have themselves with great intelligence.
Said the bottler to an interviewer:
"These creatures know more than a
great many people. Spiders do not care
for sweet things, and never drop into"
my vats or get into my bottles. I never
disturb them except to feed them occa
sionally. They appear to know my call,
and will come out and feed from my
hand, or take a fly from my finger.
"They shut themselves up during
most of the winter months in the little
nests yon see stuck like daubs of mud
about the ceiling: When winter comes,
I brush away the webs. They prefer to
weave new ones every spring.
"Each May they reappear ready to
unravel the silken fabric that is stored
in their little bodies. It is just about
then that the flies have hatched their
first young. If the spiders appear earlier,
the crop of flies would soon give out
"I have been only running this spider
farm for two years, but I find my little
partners indispensable. They will not
endure in the place a single fly or insect
that is a plunderer of sweets and sir
ups. "Pittsburg Dispatch,

The sailors of the gulf of Mexico and
the equatorial regions of the Atlantic

occasional honest penny by capturing
both large and small snakes of the va

ering their bodies with tattooed letters
and designs. One of these living manu
scripts was recently exhibited at Egyp
tian hall, London, which had the whole
of the third chapter of Genesis and some
pieces from Punch tattooed upon his
back in indelible letters of various col
ors. Thousands of these tattooed snakes
are annually disposed of at Rio de Ja
neiro. The buyers generally kill these
snakes and either skin them or preserve
the entire reptile in alcohol. Such speci
mens are highly prized by both Euro

THE REMARKABLE VITALITY OF
AN AGED CALIFORNIAN.
Stands Today I'nseathed tv Disease-
Bow lis Conquered Kheumatlstu
A Story Full of Interest.
From the Examiner, San Francisco, Cat.)
There is at least one happy man in
San Francisco today one man who
can enjoy, despite the fact of his being
sixty years of age and of corpulent
build, the full and free use of all the
powers of mind and body.
James Keenan is a prominent liquor
dealer at 356 Brannan street, and it is
he who is now lauding those who have
restored him from a bed of pain to his
former youthful activity. Mr. Keenan
had, to within a year ago, been blessed
with the enjoyment of alonist perfect
health
It was a year ago that Mr. Keenan
first suffered the hand of disease to
take hold upon him. At that time he
was stricken down by an aggravated
attack of rheumatism, which robbed
him of the use of his lower limbs and
of both his hands. For fully six weeks
he lay on his couch, a helpless victim
of the dread disease, and all the time
he suffered intense pain in the affected
portions of his body. He could not
move himself upon his bed, and all
that he ate had to be fed to him by
those in attendance. He had about
despaired of ever gaining release from
the dutches of the frightful disease,
when one morning his attention was
drawn to an advertisement in a morn
ing paper, of a remedy 'for rheuma
tism. The story of what succeeded
this casual glance at a medicine adver
tisement can best be told in the words
of Mr. Keenan himself, who, when
asked for an explanation of his seem
ingly miraculous cure, gave the fol
lowing account:
It seemed to me that after all the
weeks of terrible suffering that I had
endured that there could not possibly
be a relief. I had no faith in patent
medicines, and when I saw in a - paper
the advertisement of Williams' Pink
Pills I was induced to try them only
in sneer desperation. I did not feel
any relief until I began taking the sec
ond Dox ol tne pills, but then the pain
began gradually to leave me, my appe
tite became better, and I could sleep
soundly throughout the night without
experiencing any of the jerking pains
that had before kept me awake. I oon
tinned to take the pills and it was only
a short time until the rheumatism had
entirely left my hands, and I had so
far recovered the use of my legs as to
be able to walk about the house with
out assistance. In about two weeks
more I was entirely free from the dis-
but I took two more boxes of the
pills as a precaution against a return
of the rheumatism. From the time
that the last trace of the disease left
me I had not felt the least sign of its
return, and I can truthfully say that
I now enjoy the free use of my limbs
as ever I did before the rheumatism at
tacked me.
"I have taken the pains to recom
mend Williams' Pink Pills to a num
ber of my friends who are suffering
from rheumatism. I think I know of
no other remedy that will afford such
quick and permanent relief from rheu
matism as do Williams' Pink Pills,
and I only hope that many others may
be brought to see and feel the high cura
tive powers that the pills possess.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are also a specific for
troubles peculiar to females, such as
suppressions, irregularities and all
forms of weakness. They bnild up the
blood and restore the glow of health to
pale and sallow cheeks. In men they
effect a radical cure in all cases arising
from mental worry, overwork or ex
cesses of whatever nature. Pink Pills
are sold in boxes (never in loose bulk)
at 50 cents a box or six boxes fox $2. 60,
and may be had of all druggists, or

New Treatment For Barns.
A Paris medical man of resources and
alternatives had in hand a case of severe
and extensive burning, caused by boil
ing water. So deep was the injury that
the healing process was greatly delayed.
The patient's family objected to skin
grafting, which seemed to be the only
way to accelerate the process of recov
ery, and the doctor, as an experiment,
applied the internal membrane of the
hen's egg the white film with which
everybody is familiar. The injury must
have progressed beyond the suppurative
stage and shown signs of healthy heal
ing. A freshly laid egg is broken and
the membrane immediately cut into
narrow strips and laid carefully across
the raw surface, then antiseptic dress
ings are applied with carbolic solutions,
and the whole is covered by tin foil. In
a number of cases this procedure has
been eminently satisfactory. New York

THE STORY OF A BEAR.
The Truth Came Out In Spite of the
Paid to Suppress It,
"There used to bo some good hunting
up in Maine, about Riingelcy lake," said
Mr. T. L. I'iiK'tv "A house that I mall
aged in tho little villages of Phillips wal
the headquarters of a lot of NimrocU,
who came up every season after big
game. Of all the ardent sportsmen, twe
New Yorkers, claims and partners in
business, Messrs. Buekley and Webb,
were the keenest lovers of the chase.
They were very successful hunters, too,
and generally carried off tho palm both
as to quality and quantity of gnnie.
"One setuton, however, they met with
very poor hick, and after spending about
a week in camp, with nothing to show
for their labors, started to come to
towu, with the intention of going home.
On their way in they overtook a coun
tryman driving a farm wagon, in tb
bed of which lay one of the handsomest
specimens of black bear that the Now
Yorkers had ever laid eyes on. The rus
tic stopped his team to let the city stran
gers admire his big take. Suddenly a
brilliant idea occurred to Buckley.
'What would you be willing to sell your
bear for?' said he to the farmer.
" 'Well, the state gives a bounty of
$10 for every bear, and I reckon if you'll
give me $10 more you can have him. '
"Buckley gave tho old man his price,
with $5 additional, first exacting from
him a solemn promise that he would
never breathe a syllable of the tranooc
tion to any one. Then he and Webb rode
ahead, and on reaching the hotel told in
most enthusiastic! style how they had
killed the biggest black bear that had
ever came out of the Maine woods.
They entered into details of the shoot
ing, and every guest of the house was on
the qui rive for a look at bruin, that
was coming on a little later. He was
such a heavy beast that the mighty
hunters were forced to hire an old farm
er to bring him in town in a wagon.
Pretty soon the wagon hove in sight and
a big crowd gathered at the hotel en
trance to see him unloaded. Exclama
tions of delight wcie heard on every
side, and Buekley and Webb were the
heroes of the hour.
"Down in the little village of Phil
lips Old Sol Mayberry, with a bigger
wad of cash in his pocket than he had
possessed for a long time, was getting
very drunk on the proceeds of his sale,
and after the third or fourth round of
drinks he couldn't resist telling how, on
that very morning, be had caught in
trap the finest bear he'd ever beheld.
and how he had sold him to two chaps
from the city. The facts leaked out in
less than an hour, and the conspirators
were forced to own that Old Sol had
spoken the truth. Their bill for cham
pagne that day was in three figures. "

Indoor Bicycle Riding.
Nowadays every one wants to ride a
bicycle, but many do not attempt it be
cause they dread the ordeal of learning.
In the first place they dislike the idea of
abrasions and bruises, and in the second
they can hardly bring themselves to the
sacrifice of dignity which the flounder
ings of the beginner usually entail
They need no longer hesitate. The bi
cycle can now be learned indoors, safe
from prying eyes and without fear of
falls. A new appliance designed for this
purpose consists of a small flywheel
covered with rubber and two side wheels
fitted with a simple arrangement by
means of which it can be adjusted to
any kind of cycle in two minutes. Its
great advantage is that the rider expe
riences the same momentum as in a spin
on a hard rood, while the machine
either remains stationary or moves so
slowly that in traversing 15 feet the
same amount of exercise is obtained as
in a mile of ordinary traveling.
Practice can thus be carried on in a
hall or rooi j. and riders can gauge the
rate of speea their exertions would have
given them on the highway. For begin
ners, children and invalids needing phys
ical exercise this invention is specially
adapted, as it stands perfectly steady
and enables the difficulties of mounting
and dismounting to be thoroughly over
come without danger of falls or bruises.
The appliance is collapsible, weighs 15
pounds and can be easily carried is the
hand. Exchange.

been recently devised which is claimed
to be simple, inexpensive and efficient.
It consists in preparing the wooden
blocks before they are laid by boring a
few boles in them and filling the same
with a hard setting substance composed
of crushed stone, bitumen and Portland
cement The compound is cleared off
even with the surface, and when they
are laid the roadway is thus covered
with a series of rough spots which ar
rest the foot of the horse in all condi
tions of weather, and prevent the ani
mal from slipping. Wood paving is ex

HU.nAN SUFFERING.
Nine-tenths or It la Caeteea and Could Be
Avoided.
Go through a crowd of people, pro-
ferably city people; examine the tired
anxious, wanted faces ; remember your
life ami the lives of the men whom yon
have known intimately; recall the via
lent deaths, the suicides of which you
huvo heard, and ask yourself the reason
of all this death, sunenug and despair,
And you will see, however strange it
may upHW, that tho cause of nine-truths
of human suffering is the present life of
the world ; that tins suffering is use loss
that it could be avoided, and that the
majority of men are martyrs to worldly
ideas.
Recent ly on a rainy Sunday I crossed
tho market near the tower of Soukuarev
in a street car. For a third of a mile tho
car made its way through a dense crowd
that closed in again behind us. From
morning till evening these thousands of
men, most of them hungry and in rags,
jostle each other in the mud, dispute,
deceive and hate each other. The same
thing goes on in tho markets of Moscow
and other cities. These men will pass
their evenings in the wine shops and
afterward will seek their holes and cur
ners. Sunday is their best day. Monday
they begin again their accursed exist'
enoe.
Think of the existence of these men,
of the sitnatiou which they abandon
and of that which they choose. Consider
the labor to which they give themselves,
and yon will see that they are martyrs.
All have left their fields, their houses,
their fathers and brothers, often their
wives and children. They have reiioauc
ed everything and come to tho city in
order to acquire that which the world
considers necessary. All of them are
there, from the operative, the coachman
and the seamstress to the wealthy mer
chant, the office holder and the wives of
all of them, to say nothing of the tons
of thousands of unfortunates who have
lost everything and live on scraps and
brandy in the free lodging houses. Go
through this crowd; wutch poor and
rich alike ; look for a man who soys
that he is satisfied and believes thtit he
possesses what the world deems ueeossa

the ceremony was over, the parson se

unrolled it sufficiently to sign his name.

opened it, and his eye grew wild as he
read instead of a marriage certificate a
warrant of arrest, signed by both the
justice of the peace and by the parson.
He feared some trap, so surrendered
himself to custody.

it and immediately saw its nature, but,
