Rare'y, it may be thought; has a more singular case of accidental death been recorded than that which recently threw a much es teemed family residing in the envi rons of St. Petersburg into mourn ing. A young lady in perfect hearth, and with the brightest fu ture before her, was among the guests invited to a ball, and, her toilet completed, she drew on a pair of long gloves, reaching above the elbows. Scarcely halt an hour afterwards she felt considerable ir ritation and pain in her arms and hands, to which, however, for the moment taken , up with the pleasures of the evening -she paid but little attention. On returning home her suffering increased, and the following day her hands and arms became cover ed with sores, which were attribut ed by the doctors called in to blood poisoning. A week later the poor girl died, after severe suffering and despite the efforts made te save her. The fatal gloves had been handed over for analysis, the con jecture being that the animal with the skin of which thi were made was In some-way or other diseased, and that the skin used had been imperfctly cleansed. In any case, if this conjecture prove correct, measures, will doubtless be taken to ascertain, if possible, whether other gloves similarly contaminat ed are on sale. London Standard. WHAT IT COSTS TO KEEP A TROTTER. It doesn't cost as much to keep a fast roadster as most people im agine." The speaker was genial Ol Chenowith, the veteran trainer ami handler of trotting horses. "You see," he continued, "peaple think that only a Vanderbilt or a Jay Gould can afford to own a trotter, but when you get down to facts you can easily see how such an ida is all wrong. Now, a man can go out and buy an out-and-out good colt for $500 or $600. Well, afrer a gentleman gets the horse and sees for himself that he's got a streak of 6peed in the bargain, all that's necessary to develop the same is to put horse in the stable ot some reliable trainer. Anyone of us will agree to work, feed and tinker generally with ahorse for $35 a month. When you come to think of it this iscertainly a most reasonable figure, especially as.the horse is developed and turned out as good as he possibly can be. Now $35 a month for eight months is $280 and the other four months, when the horse is turned out, he will cost $20 a month. That's $80 more Add it to the $280 and it gives you exactly $360. That is precisely what it costs to keep a horse who will bring reputation to his owner and perhaps earn a rec ord for himself.' Baltimore News. Cruel brevity. 'Will you think of me after 1 am gone?" she asked. "Will you love me as much then as you do now?'! "More," he said absent-mindedly.' ' ; '- i: - - Charleston, S.

Professor John Henry Comstock, the eminent naturalist, begins in the New York Ledger of March 1, a series of six articles on the study of insects, in which he describes, not only those insects which are useful to the farmer, but also, those which destroy entire fields of grain, cotton and rice, and - ravage orchards, gardens, and vineyards. He - demon strates how it was scieatificilly deter mined that an average annual loss of 30,000,000 has been occasioned in the south by the cotton-worm alone; and that an average loss" per year, of nearly $2,400,000, has been brought about in the apple crop of Illinois by the ravages of the codlin moth. The series is profusely illustrated. : : ' There is one business in' every city which never iy nor cannot be, dupli cated. That is the post office.

A lethargic, dormant condition of the liver is hardly to be overcome with drastic cathartics and nauseous chol agogues. A gentler, pleasanter and far more effective means exists of amus ing the organ when somnolent. This is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, vouch ed for by the medical fraternity, tested by the public for many years. A re sumption by the biliary organs organ' of its secretive, funtion, with the ac tivity attendant uponhealth, a return to regularity of the bowels, and a re newal of digestion, are the no less happy and certain results of using the Bitters systematically. Its laxative ef-" feet is never painful and drenching, its tendency being rather to perpetuate regularity than to produce a copious action. Malaria, nervousness, debility, kidney troubles and neuralgia it sub dues effectnally. A LOatG-FELT WANT. Candidate You are a working man, are you not? - Workingman I am, sir.
