Curley, of Clarence, lows, Tells an Interesting; Story of er Ex perience With Pink Pills. From the Republican, Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Mrs. V. Uurley who has resided in Clarence, Iowa, for the past twenty- two years, tells an interesting story of what she consideres rescue from prema tore death. Her narrative is as fol lows: "Jj'or ten years prior to 1894, 1 was a constant sufferer from acute stomach trouble. I had all the manifold symp toms of acute dyspepsia, and at times other troubles were present in compli cation I did not know what it was to enjoy a meaL No matter how careful I might be as to the quality, quantity and preparation of my food, distress always followed eating. I was des pondent and blue. Almost to the point of insanity at times, and would have been glad to die. Often and often I could not sleep. Sympathetic heart trouble set in and time and again I was obliged to call a doctor in the night to relieve sudden attacks of suffocation which would come on without a mo ments warning. My troubles increased as time wore on and I spent large sums in doctor bills, being compelled to have medical attendants almost constantly. During 1892 and 1893, it was impossible for me to retain food, and water brahses plagued me. I was reduced to a skele ton. A consultation of physicians was unable to determine just what did ail me. The doctors gave as us theu opinion tnat the probable trouble was ulceration of the coats of the stomach and held out no hope of recovery. One doctor said, 'All 1 can do to relieve your suffering is by the use of opium. t About this time a friend of mine, Mrs. Wymaucna bmith, of Olidden, Iowa, told me about the case of Mrs. Thurston, of Oxford Junction, Iowa. This lady said she had been afflict, much the same as I had. She con sulted local physicians without relief, and went to Davenport for treatment Giving up all hope of recovery, she was persuaded by a friend to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The result was almost magical. 1 was led to try them from her ex perience, and before many months felt better than I had for a dozen years. I am now almost free from ' trouble, and if through pome error of diet I feel badly, this splendid remedy sets me right again. I have regained my strength and am once more in my usual flesh. I sleep well and can eat without distress. I have no doubt that I owe my recovery to Dr. Williams' ""Pink Pills. I only wish that I had heard of them years ago thereby saving myself ten years of suffering and much money." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. . They are for sale by all druggists, or may be had by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Com pany, bcnenectauy, jn. x., lor 50o per box, or six boxes for $2. 50. MIRTH AND MERRIMENT. NOT A TENDERFOOT. Jim An Impromptu Dance at Which Dupree Was Master. One day a lot of rustlers and all around thieves and cutthroats rode into a mining town in Arizona and proceed- ed to have fun. They rode up and down the main street firing right and left until they scared everybody indoors. Then they went into the principal saloon of the place for liquor. Jim Dupree happened to be in the saloon at the time and, as usual, had no gun with . him. Those fellows caught sight of him, and as he was the freshest-lookingduck they had seen for many a day,- they started in to have fun with him. The leader of the gang was a ruffian called Long' Haired Pete. As soon as he saw Dupree he pulled his gun and sent a bullet through the floor right between Jim's feet "Give us a dance and be . lively about it," shouted Pete, while his gang gathered around to see the fun. Jim got up without a word and start ed in to dancing a regular old Kentucky breakdown. - Those fellows thonght he was soared almost to death. ' He danced around in a circle, and as he came in front of the leader of the gang his foot suddenly shot up and caught Long- Haired Pete squarly under the chin, The ruffian measured his length on the floor. , Quick as a flash Jim leaped forward and snatched the two pistols carried by the leader of the gang. Then, with a smile as innocent as that of a boy he covered the gang and told them all to dance. They hesitated for a moment Then Jim sent a bullet through the toe of Pete's boot, and another through the hat of Lon Spivey, a member of the gang. They danced then, and at the first sien of a let-np ' Jim would shoot a button off some man's coat or clip off a look of long hairwith a bullet "Without taking his eyes off the gang, Jim told the barkeeper to send out and ' get all the boys to come in and see the fun.-' They all came quickly enough, and Jim kept that gang of outlaws there dancing nntil some of them dropped to the floor exhausted. Then he made every man of them hand over his gun to the barkeeper, after which he ordered drinks for the crowd. When the fun was over he told Pete to take his gang and get out of the Territory as fast as possible and never come back. That gang rode out of town the sickest-looking lot ot tough men I, ever saw, and that was the last ever seen of them in that part of the country.

Bowells Says She Has Been Here Before and Is No New Creature. The New Woman who comes smok ing, comes talking, and she talks to all lengths and breadths in . fiction. But if this is true, has she come talking in any greater number than before? There were always women who liked the ex citement of thin ice, in their choice of topics, especially if the water was not very deep underneath, and this sort are still sliding about in conversation. Per haps there is really a greater frankness in the matters spoken of in mixed com panies than there was a generation ago but within the same period women have greatly abridged the freedom of their innocent relations with men in our own country. The chaperon has come, and has come to stay, in all her superfluity as it would have been " accounted by mothers of daughters when they were only daughters themselves. In this respect the American woman of 1895 is vastly less than the woman of 1845, for what was really a novelty among young people, and of our own invention, has been exchanged, in good society at least. for a remnant of the old conditions which Europe has been slowly out growing, and which we had flung aside with our political allegiance to ' Eng land. It was one of the few social growths indigenous to our soil, it was graceful and sweet and pretty, - and it was rooted in our purer life; but for the last quarter of a century we have been rapidly recolonizing ourselves, and in nothing more than our wish to ex tinguish the charming liberty that once existed among young people here. 1 suppose there is a sort or newness in women's wish to know rather more of all sorts of things than they used they have a great many contrivances for the improvement of their minds they take up different varities of work. sociological and economical; they in terest themselves m the condition of the poor; they have opinions favorable to the unhappy; they wish to take largi views, and to act helpfully and gener ously; and I should be very glad to be lieve that men were equally renewing themselves in the same ways. But we do not hear much of the New Man. and we are left to believe that he has not only not arrived, but has not start ed. No one really knows whether he has arrived or not, however, except the New Woman, and she is still so uncer tain herself, in life, that we have no means of authenticating him from her knowledge. In fiction, such fiction as I began with in this rambling inquiry, he is not a pleasant companion. He is rude to the new girl, brutally rude, and le is not very kind to the old girl. He says and does things that only the lady novelist has hitherto conceived of nen s doings, and his behavior in fic tion makes us willing to get on without aim in life for a long time yet What is certain is that if the JNew Man ever loes come, the New Woman will be too good for him, just as the old woman is too good for the old man now and always has been. Harper's Weekly. PROTECTION FROM MOTHS. New Way of Dressing the Hair. The banged girl is transformed. All the girls are wearing those cun ning iittie siae combs which hold in place the unruly tangles of their fluffy front locks. Above the combs the hair lies sleek and smooth as a demure Madonna's; below their restraint the fuzzy ends stick out as if in rebellion at their tutelage. And the girl will look at you with big, wise eyes and say with that little Mark Twain drawl they all affect nowadays: "It takes so long for it to grow out again." Even so. The Madonna can become the banged girl in an hour, but to be come a Madonna again is a task of months. You become whole-haired again while you wait," so to speak. Wherefore I should counsel deliberation and much weighing of the pros and cons before becoming a banged girl again. Meanwhile, though, there are the combs. The little side cembs are meant to be out temporary, and it may not be in the best of taste to decorate them, but I have seen them blazing with gems. A better place for these is the big back oomb, which may be shell, with gold panels, or all gold, or may produce the effect of a tiara of diamonds. Phila delphia Times. An Actor's Mistake. An amusing story was told some years ago of E. A. Sothern, a famous wit and actor. Upon a certain even ing he was invited to two entertain ments, one for children, and the other a reception for grown people. Fond of children, Sothern decided to go to the party given for the little ones, and thinking it would be a great joke to go into the parlor on all fours and roar ing like a bear, he did so much to the amusement of the guests and his own subsequent nnhappiness.for once in the middle of the room he looked up and saw that he had made a mistake in the house, and had played for the grown people and not for the children. Har per's Young People. Woolen Clothing Should Be Thoroughly Mended Before Putting Away. This is the time to put away the heavy furs, for the moth millers are already beginning to fly. People rush about buying all sorts of expensive moth-preventives, when they are not of the least use. If furs and clothing are put away with the moth egg in them, all the odors in the world, good, bad, or indifferent, would not keep them from hatching. The time when the eggs are laid and the fatal damage done is usually before housekeepers think of putting them away at all. . When the warm spring days come the heavy fur coat or jacket is hung up in the closet lest it may be needed again, and per haps it is worn once or twice and then hung up again, and in the hurry of spring work forgotten until somebody sees moth millers flying about frequent ly. Then the furs are taken out, per haps brushed a little, and put away smothered in camphor or in something else that is useless as it is expensive. In the fall, when the clothes and furs come out, there is weeping and wailing, for the hair flies from the furs, and holes, always in the very worst places to mend, are found in the clothes. Then there is any amount of wonder ing, and "I can't imagine how it hap pened, for I put them away so carefully and used such a lot of moth stuff. The proper way is to lay the heavy clothing in a chest as soon as the use is not daily, and then it can be taken out and worn when the cold days come and extra wraps are needed. When the cold weather has fairly gone, then every separate article should be taken out and hung on the clothes-line on a clear day; if there is a wind, so much the better, as the dust will blow away from you as you beat it out. After beating with light switch of some kind it should be both tough and elastic brush the clothes carefully. Never put clothes away with soiled spots upon them; scour them all out hrst it is a very good plan to have them all thoroughly mended, for the children's clothes are always needed in a hurry in the fall, and if put away in order it is a great gain in every way. When all the clothes are thoroughly beaten and brushed and cleansed, fold every article separately, and with care as to folding. Do not leave them on the line to air, for that is the very time that the moth miller takes to lay her eggs. They are very plentiful out-doors just as soon as the weather becomes mild and are wait ing for a chance to get into the house, and no article of woolen is safe if - left out half an hour. Then see that yonr chests are absolutely tight, that there are no cracks-, in them anywhere. If there are paste newspaper over the cracks, wherever they are, and see that there is not even the most infini tesimal crevice for the moth miller to enter, for if there is one- she will find it Wrap up each article separately, either in old sheets or in old towels or in papers. See that all are scrupulously and absolutely clean. Pack them in with care, so that they will not be crushed or wrinkled, and spread a sheet over the top, and tuck it in close ly all over the things. : Close yonr chest, and if yon are sure that yon will not need to open it during . the warm season, paste paper over the edge of the cover, ant u it closes ngntiy mere will be no danger from the moths. Harper's Bazaar. OUR IRON ORES. HER STRANGE PRISON. X.IKB A SIXTX. Quantity, Quality' and Variety Abund ant-Capital Wanted to I tilise It. We have made frequent mention of our iron ores, and the business which would follow the investment of a sum of money sufficient to manufacture these ores into the common trade, . the Post- Intelligencer says: "It has been a matter of surprise to many who are familiar with the re sources of this country why the number of iron furnaces projected on this coast failed to materialize, and it is equally a matter of regret to those who project ed the enterprises that they failed to accomplish results, through no fault of their own. The making of iron and steel by modern process requires the investment of a large amount of capi tal an amount extending into the millions and it also requires great skill in manufacture and management In one or two instances the capital re quisite has been secured and every hope held out of its immediate availability, but through unforeseen reverses and financial troubles the money was not forthcoming and the preliminary work was compelled to suspend. Capital, always timid, is slow to enter untried fields, and once driven away, it is hard to secure its return. "The services of experts have been secured on many occasions, and at great expense, to examine the mines oi iron, coal, coke and lime, to report carefully on the quality, quantity and avail ability. The reports have been invari ably good, and as such could be pai upon favorably in the greatest iron cen ters in America and Europe. The cost of manufacturing pis iron and its con version into steel was also ascertained; this was found to be within the limits of Pittsburg furnaces; the market for the metal, either pig iron or steel bil lets, was found both at home and abroad. In one instance the prodnct of a large plant would have been scarcely sufficient to supply orders extending over a long period. Large home orders could have been secured amounting to hundreds of thousands. With the return of prosperity it is hoped that renewed effort will result in securing what the country so much needs capital and that the men who have striven so long and faithfully to invest it in iron furnaces, converters and rolling mills will meet with the suc cess their enterprise deserves. It means a great deal to Seattle, to Puget Sound, to Washington; .it' means the taking of millions of wealth from the mountains; it means the employment of thousands of skilled and unskilled workmen; it means the building , np of great industries on solid and lasting foundations; it means the building np of a great manufacturing city and a grand state." Where a Cincinnati Man Pound His Wills After a Burglary. -The construction of city flats is auoh that it seems as if flat thieves ought to be able to obtain almost unlimited plun der with impunity. But they are for ever getting caught, and most of them are the lowest grades of sneak thieves. Anything like originality in their methods is rare, so the experience of the bead of a modest west side flat is re markable. He arrived home from busi ness about 6 'clock and at once observed indications that something unusual had been going on. It was evident that a thief had 'been around, and that he had gone away Without taking much, if anything, with Dim unless it was the resident's wife, for she was nowhere to be found. The husband presumed that she had gone to notify the police, so he sat down and waited, but after an hour or two he be came anxious and inquired of the neigh- bora They had heard or seen nothing either of thief or. wife. Then there was trou ble. The husband hurried to the near est police station. His wife hadn't been there, and a general alarm was sent out for patrolmen to watch for her, while two detectives returned to the bouse and helped push inquiries. The kitchen and dining room looked as if the wife had been interrupted in her work, but there was no other sign of her. The detectives looked very wise, asked many questions that seemed im pudent to the distracted husband, made some notes and went away. The husband was in a bad state of mind, but not so upset that he didn't presently realize that he needed food. Bather than go to a restaurant he went to his refrigerator to see what there might be to eat He opened the door. and there, curled up in the ice chamber, was his wife. She wasn't hurt She hadn't even fainted. She was simply asleep, somewhat stupefied with the close air and cramp ed in every joint, but otherwise in good condition and glad to get out She ex plained that she caught a thief at work. and that he clapped her into the refrig erator before she could scream. Once in she could do nothing. There was no inner handle to the door. She cried aloud, and finding no response just waited to be discovered, dreading all the while that her wedding spoons had been taken. They were hot, though. They had been placed, with other valu ables, in the center of the dining room table for carrying off, and the inoident ended happily. Cincinnati Enquirer. AN EXPENSIVE CURL. STAY IN THE COUNTRY. An Overplus of Girls in Many of the Iiarge Cities of the Union. The constant influx of girls from the country into our large cities brings with it portentous dangers and evils. Dream ing of an easy time, good wages, a bet ter wardrobe and more congenial com panions; dazzled with the vision of city amusements, and hoping perhaps to find a marriageable partner and settle down into a comfortable city home, thousands leave the farm or village and flock to the metropolis. Here many of them confront a situation far different from that which they imagined in ad vance of their actual experience of city life. The wages they get are meager; their lodgings are far from comfort able; they have no home life; they face new temptations and trials, and their life becomes one of hardship and trou ble. In the store, factory, shop or of fice they are beset with danger and an noyance, while all about them are pit falls spread for unwary feet Some of them, with unusual aptitudes for stenography, typewriting and kindred occupation or with fine executive gifts, make tneir way to tne top and secure first-class posts; but a great multitude struggle and almost starve on $5 or $6 a week. This litter class are not able to save ' any money; a week's illness brings them into debt, and a month without employment renders them ob jects of charity. How much better would it be for most of them to stay at home, help in the household or accept such work as might be available on the farm or in the village. Our large cit ies now contain thousands of girls in a sorry plight, either without employ ment or struggling for bread girls who might have remained in comfort at home, or who could have found work of some sort in a country town to sup port them, with less cost of strength, nerve power ana vital force to say nothing of the dangers which now be set them in the city. What a kindness it would be to thousands who are heed lessly planning to rush cityward "to find something to do," could a per- suaive word reach them and say: 'Better stay at home." Philadelphia Times. Advice for Anglers. U, gentle angler, you who are fortunate enough to get away from the business treadmill, look to it that you take your sport as an honest angler should. It may be great fun to kill them as fast as you can drag them out; there may be a certain satisfaction in killing more than the other fellow can show, but believe me these feats do not constitute the real pleasure of an gling. One need not be forever staring at an arching rod, or straining silk; one's ears need not always be filled with the click of a string-spewing, string-eating nondescript clock, which measures the life of a captive as our watches measure our days. An angling outing offers many better things than dead fish. The marvelous life stirring in everything, the merry gossip of the brook, the ceaseless music of the joy ous birds, the hues of countless flowers, the perfumed, lazy breeze, the beauty, healthfulness and purity of it all, will yield to the observing angler more last ing pleasure than ever falls to the lot of the man who fishes for coont and estimates his - gratification , by the amount of life he can destroy within a given time. No fish should be taken that cannot be properly used, and no man worthy of the name of gentleman igler will kill for count It is not all -nay, 'tis not half of fishing to kill fish!" Outing for May. The Origin of a Story Attributed to Twen ty Handsome Women. Lady Harriet D' Or say was really, ac cording to Mr. Sala, in his reminiscenoes published recently, the heroine of a story which has been told in at least 20 forms of 20 different ladies of fashion. She was presiding at a stall at a vents de charite, or bazaar, held in aid of the fund of some asylum or another, when there came np the Duke of Or leans, son and heir of King Louis Phi lippe. The duke, after some polite small talk, began to extol the beauty of her hair, and indeed her Henrietta Maria coiffure had never looked glossier or soft er than it did this day. 'Ob," said his royal highness, "if I could only possess one of those enchant ing ringlets!" "How much would monseignenr give for one, asked Lady Harriet gravely, 5,000 francs?". - "Five thousand francs!" repeated the duke. "A mere bagatelle!" "Six thousand francs?" "Anything so charming a lady ohose to ask." I will not be extortionate," pursued Lady Harriet "We will say 6,000." And then she very composedly pro duced a dainty little pair of scissors. snipped off the adorable Henrietta Maria ringlet, wrapped it in silver pa per and handed it with dignity to the duke. His royal highness looked very straight down his nose, and returning Lady Harriet's salute stalked some what gloomily away. Bnt his privy purse duly forwarded the money next day. A Valuable Coin. A well known bishop tells a story of a clerk at a village church who deliber ately took half a crown ont of the plate as he brought it up to the communion table and slipped it into his pocket "I saw him take it, " said the bishop, "and intended to oharge him with ft at the end of the service, but carried away by the sublimity of the service I forgot all about it Next day I remembered and spoke about it 'Oh, sir,' said the old clerk, 'never yon worry about that That half crown has done good service far many years. I keep it to put down first, and then the gentry, seeing a poor man like me put 2a ed. in the plate, can't for shame give less. ' " London Tit-Bits.
