A Fine Sctioot.
St. Mary's academy for ladies, located
in this city and under the direction of
the Sisters, is one of the best educational
institutions on the coast. The building
is of brick, lanre and well ventilated.
Besides the regular studies, especial ef
fort is made to instil into the minds of
the pupils a desire to form their hearts
to virtue, aud to fit them to be trne and
noble women. Gratuitous lessons are
given in all kinds of plain and fancy
needle word, knitting, embroidery, etc.
Pupils will receive the same watchful
care that would be given them by con
scientious parents. It is in fact an ideal
shcool and a pleasant home. Those who
have girls to send to school should write
to St. Marv's academv for terms. If.
Taxpayers, Attention.

remain unpajd. T. J. Drivkk,

. It will be remembered, says an ex
change, how, on the birth of a son and
heir lo l'rince Max of liavaria. the
grenadiers of his regiment cut off their
mustaches to stuff a pillow for the
royal infant's head. History has just
repealed itself at lhe modest little town
of Kibea uville. .. in France, where the
captain of the local lire brigade recent
ly became a happy father. With one
accord the loravc firemen sacrificed the
hirsute adornments which were their
glory to till a velvet cushion, aud this
unique gift .was duly placed in the
baby"s cradle, with a diploma of hon

The Russian minister of the interior,
acting under instructions from the
czar, lias alleviated the severity of the
press laws in all the larger towns and
cities of the empire, in fact wherever
the population is over 100,000, by ex
empting the newspapers from the ob
ligation of submitting all articles on
political subjects to the censor before
publication. Hitherto only a few of
the principal papers nt St. Petersburg,
Moscow, Warsaw and Odessa have en
joyed the immunity.

Poor
Blood
When a horse is poor in flesh,
a new harness won't gfive him
strength. If a house is cold
new furniture won't warm it.
If your strength is easily ex
hausted; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; if you are pale
with the blood. It is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich ; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
more than a new harness will
gfive strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make a
house warm. For poor b!ood
you want something; that will
make rich blood.

OBEYED TO THE LETTER.
Bnt tlie Walter KUen What Was
What, J out the Same.
He is an old, disgruntled! looking
bachelor, and he tlines every evening in
a chop house not far from Broadway,
says the New York Herald'.
"Waiter," he said, the other evening,
"now take this order and' see if you'ean
get along without eternally suggesting
things. No, I don't want anythingfrom
the bar. I'd sav so if I didi Kicecel-
erv, eh? You wooden-Hieaded idiot,
didn't 1 tell you that I had'sense enough
to know what I wanted, without any
suggestions from you?"
"Yes, sir," said! the waiter, submis
sively. "Now, then," resumed the old chap,
"you' may bring me Lyonnaise pota
toes, coffee, small cup, and ah yes, a
little old' Stilton. Sow, hurry up; don t
stand gawking1.
The waiter went away and returned
with the order.
"What! How's this?" exclaimed! the
man. pounding with his fists tipon the
lable. Whtere s that sirloin steak I or
dered?" "You orderedi none, sir," replied! the
functionary, with a low bow. "I would
have suggested as 'much, but I feaTed
to displease you."
"You're a nice waiter," yelled the old
man, and he turned as red as oldlBur
gundy. "All you need is an, iron, fence
and. board of lunacy commissioners to
be an insane asylum. Why did vou ask
me if I want a sirloin steak if I didn't
order it?"
"Yes, sir," said the waiter.
Two minutes later he returned with
the steak. He had called for it when
he sent down, the original order.
CONTINUOUS STREET RAILS.
The Contraction and Expansion of the
Metal Were Easily Overcome.
Continuous rails, madle up of ordinary
rails length welded together electrical
ly, are in use on many miles of electric
street railways in the United! States,
says Cassder's Magazine, and with ex
cellent results, too, havipg shown them
selves to constitute an ideal track
Whatever misgivings may have arisen at
onetime as to the serious pranks which
expansion and contraction might play
with such continuous tracks hnve been
effectively - allayed, as experience has
shown that the difficulties likely to
grow from these causes-are not extraor
dinary. It is interesting, however, to
note that of the troubles from-tempera
ture variations in the track, that due
to a temperature lower than the one at
which the rails were welded is the only
one requiring serious consideration. It-
is found in the tendency of the rail to
shrink in a longitudinal direction, and
this must be counteracted by a pull on
the ends of the rail sufficient to produce
a corresponding amount of stretch
Temperatures above that at which the
rails were welded cause compression
and this has never been found' to make
trouble where the track was at all se
cured by the roadbed.
Experience, therefore, would seem to
point to the winter season as .the time
for welding continuous track, as then
the rails are materially contracted', and
though exceptionally cold- snaps may
be productive of a slight state of tension
in the rails, yet the maximum stress
would- be nothing like that in 'rails
welded in the summer, and'probably far
below tne strength of the welds.
