DIVORCES IN CHICAGO. In Chicago one day lately seven teen decrees of divorce were granted in one court. Of the ap plicants for divorce, fourteen were wives and three the husbands, On the same day, in the same courl.five bills for divorce were filed, four of them by wives. Al though considerable business was done in that line, the judge of the court seemed to think that it was not a very good day for divorce. for he stated that thirty cases were delayed by lawyers who had faiTed to present certificates of evidence, He gave notice to them to prac tice greater diligence. One of the judges of the city of Chicago, when questioned on the 6ubject of divorces stated ' that five times as many women as men apply for divorce. Lawyers gen erally suggest a cause for divorca to women who consult them. The prospective clients simply want a divorce on general principles, but they are informed that the statutes provide that one or more sufficient causes must constitute the corn plaint. In order to enable them to bring out tlieir grounds,, the assistance of their legal adviser is invoked. . A Chicago paper in comment ing on this state of affairs, says that it has often been stated that women possess more affection as well as greater constancy and de votion than men; also that they care more for a home and domes tic pleasures than men do,-and that they will sacrifice more to se' cure and retain them. But the records,, of the ' police . courts and the opinion of judges and lawyers tlo not confirm the high estimates which a chivalrous spirit has bestowed on woman. It must be obvious to every ob server and thinker that the ad vanced position of woman has made her restive under the matri monial yoke. There are now so many ways in which a woman can earn a living that she is likely to become weary of the care, ofa household and anxious to enter some new field of usefulness that offers more pleasure, greater leis ure and more variety. Since women are no longer "dependent on men for support, many of them are 110 longer do'meslic in their tastes and habits. Ex. THE SUMMARY OF LIFE. Some philosopher has these lines the summary of. life: Seven years in childhood, sport and play 7. - Seven years at school from day to day 14. Seven years at a trade or college life 21. Seven years to find a place and wife 28. . " Seven years to pleasure's follies given 35. Seven years to business hardly given 42. - Seven years for some "a wild goose chase 49. Seven years for wealth a boot less race 56. Seven years of hoarding for your, heir 63. . " I Seven years in weakness spent in care 70. '""'-Then die and go you should know where! - William vv aiaon Asior, wno nas cuuie iiiiu uie possession ui nearly $200,000,000 by the death of his father, John r Jacob Astor, will build bronzedoors to f; Trinity church, in New York city, to cost $i00,000. What a .pleasant sight to look upon these doors will it be to the thousands of shivering and hungry people who wander the streets of that city. An air ship is being built In Lon don which is expected to carry a crew of men at a: speed of 150 miles an hour. These ' are great expectations, which- if realized, will revolutionize all previous ideas of rapid transit. The crew on the first trip will be a bold lot. Children Cry for MISCELLANY. "They can't do anything until I get there," as the condemned man said when on the way to the execu tion. -' . Of $10,000,000 expended yearly by the New York city government, the Tribune saps that at least one half is clear, steal. Inquiry made in France in order to carry out the n?w law giving certain advantages to fathers of more than seven children has elic ited, among other things, the fact hat there are 2,000,000 households in which there has been no child. The production of gold in Cali fornia began in 1848, the. yield that year being $9,000,000; in the year following, $40,000,000, and $50,000,000 in 1850. 'The total gold product of that state to date is estimated at $1,125,000,000, A Canton, China, paper esti mates that 750,000 people die every year in China r.y fire and flood, but it is not satisfied. . "The fact is," it remarks with cold blood ed cynicism, "the great need of China is the sudden removal of two or three million inhabitants to make room for those who are left." An exchange says that the fol lowing remaiks were overheard by a small boy at a picnic: "Darling, I'm going to let go your hand for minuie, but you mustn't be angry. I wouldn't loose it only some kind of a caterpillar is creeping down my duck, ana i can t nx my thoughts on you and the cater pillar at the same time." The French output of coal last year was24,588,8S0 tons, 1,985,986 tons more than in 1888, and 3,300,000 tons more than in 1887. The increase would have been still larger hut for strikes among the miners in the largest district. The French are making a greater effort to take from English miners the Mediterranean trade. A Philadelphia young couple recently took baby out- on the street, and finding him heavier than they thought concluded to bujr a baby - coach (coach is the modern -Volapuk for carriage), which they did, and continued their outing; pushing the coach and babyr" Significant staring and laughing on the part of everybody they met led to an investigation, when they found to their horror that they had neglected to remove a card of the dealer hanging in" front, -bearing the legend, "OUR OWN MAKE."

NEVER FORGET. That the enemy of man is man. That the fairest flowers fade the soonest. ' ' That knowledge leaves no room for chances : That a sealskin sacqtie does not always keep the heart warm. That when men are lonely they stoop to any companionship. . The darkest cloud often con tains the most fruitful showers. That an open enemy is to be re spected, a secret one " to be sus pected. That tfce pure worship of a pure heart is an inspiration and a sqng. That there may be loyalty with out love, but never love without loyalty. The chicken business is a matter of wonderful importance to the table comfort, and the financial outlook of the American farmer. Government statistics show that the annual expenditure in this line is $560,000,000; and. despite the immense production of eggs, sev eral million dollars worth are an nually imported to meet the de ficiency of the home supply. The Chinese in San Jose, Cal., lease property from a white man for twelve months in the year and charge the.ir tenants for thirteen' months, there being thirteen months in the Chinese year. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria, When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, When she became 5Iisa, she clung to Castoria, When she had Children, she gave them Castor's, The New York Sun says that the greatest sorrow the most in tense sorrow is to find your last quarter only twenty cents.

My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my left cheek, spreading across my nose, and almost covering my face. - It ran into my eyes, and the physician was afraid I would lose ray eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my hair all fell out, until I was eutirely bald-headed; it then broke out on my arms and shoulders, until my arm were just one sore. ' It cov ered my entire body, my face head and shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell constantly from my head shoulders, and arms; the skin would thicken and be red and very itchy, and would crack and bleed if scratched. After spending many, hun dreds of dollars, I was prouounced incur able. I heard of the Cuticura Kkmedies, and after using two bottles Cuticura Ke solvent, I could see a change; ' and after I bad taken four bottles, I was almost cured; and when I had used sis bottles of Ccticttba Resolvent and one box of Cuticuba, and one cake of Cuticura Soap, I was cored of the dreadful disease from which I had suffered for five years.
