There are no duplicates to these very Interesting and beautiful specimens of Chinese art, and therefore they are of special value to the wealthy connoisseur. The seals are four in number, and are of green jadestones. They are of interest to artists, for the strong-minded dowager was much addicted to painting water colors, and to prevent any doubt being cast upon them as not the genuine pro duct of ber own imperial hand, and that posterity should also be enlight ened as to her genius, she used to af fix one of these jadestone seals upon them. The Phoenix Is carved on two of these seals. This is the .special mark or crest of an empress dowager of the empire. But the lady autocrat was not satisfied with the Phoenix alone. Having usurped the reins of government, she arrogated to herself the prerogatives of the Emperor, and added the Dragon to her own emblem of majesty. This makes the pair of seals belonging to Yi-Kun Palace of especial value, and will be a token to succeeding generations of her usurpa tion and reality of power in the em pire. One of the seals is of an espe cially beautiful design. It Is of white jade, the surface of which is a beau tiful red color. It belonged to the Em- ! peror Kien Lung (1736-95), and is stat j ed to have been carved by himself, his majesty having been quite an artist in his way. It bears the words, -It is only the learned of the present day who love the lore of the ancients." In the cut are shown the impressions of two of the seals, the Dowager Em press' ordinary seal and the Emperor's Yi-Kun seal. The Inscription of the former is translated. "Nourish your mind and nurse your spirits," while that of the latter is "Written by the Imperial Hand in the Yi-Kun Palace." AND THE CAT CAME BACK. This Angora Beauty Was So Destruc tive, Said the Domestics. A Brooklyn woman recently gave away her pet cat, an Angora of great beauty, although she was much attach ed to it. But the cat had broken many plates, two cream jugs, a teapot, sev eral teacups, several handsome pieces of bric-a-brac; had drunk cream and milk intended for breakfast on several occasions, and had stolen several sweetbreads when the ice chest was left open. Nevertheless, this destructive cat was a great favorite with the cook, chambermaid, and dining-room girl, who won their mistress' heart by al most crying when she sent it away. Two days after the Angora's de parture its mistress found a handsome hand-painted plate on the dining-room table broken in several pieces. She asked the maid about it. "I dunno," answered the maid, "how it happened, unless puss came back and paid a visit. You know, mum, cats has a way of comin' back." "Yes, so I understand, Mary, and I think puss will soon be with us again, so that she will not have to make vis its," replied the mistress. That night she wrote a letter to the friend who had taken the cat, saying: "Send puss back, for I think I have discovered the cat or cats for whose acts she has been blamed." Puss was brought back, and for a wonder the domestics don't like her as much as they ouoe did. She is not so welcome in the kitchen, but then she has reformed. Her mistress furnished the key to her reformation when she told the story to a friend. "You see," she said, "she has quit do ing damage since I told the domestics that I would hold them responsible for all the damages she did and would take enough out of their earnings to pay for the damage. Since that they have watched her so closely that she has neither broken any dishes, drunk any cream, nor eaten any sweetbreads." And the owner of the cat smiled at her friend, says the New York Times, and actually winked. DAN GROSVENOR SAYS: "Peronaisan Excellent Spring Catarrh Remedy I am as Well as Ever. Hon. Dan. A. Grosvenor, of the famous Ohio family. Hon. Dan. A. Grosvenor, deputy au ditor for the war department, in a let ter written from Washington, D. C, says: "Allow me to express my gratitude to you for the benefit derived from one bottle of Per una. One week has brought wonderful changes and I am now as well as ever. Besides being one of the very best spring tonics it is an excellent catarrh remedy." Very respectfully, Dan. A. Grosvenor. Hal P. Denton, chief national export exposition, Philadelphia, Pa., writes: "I was completely rundown fiom over work and the reeponsiDility naturally connected with the exploitation of a great international exposition. My physician recommended an extended vacation. When life seemed almost a burden I began taking Peruna, and with the use of the fifth bottle I found myself in a normal condition. I have since enjoyed the best of health." Almost everybody needs a tonic in the spring. Something to brace the nerves, invigorate "the brain, and cleanse the blood. That Peruna will do this is beyond all question. Every one who has tried it has had the same experience as Mrs. D. W. Timberlake, of Lynchburg, Va., who, in a recent letter, made use of the following words: "I always take a dose of Peruna after business hours, as it is a great thing for the nerves. There is no better spring tonic, and I have used about all of them." For a free book on "Chronic Ca tarrh," address The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus. Ohio. An Unusual Occurence.

Here Is an interesting letter, in the possession of a well-known autograph collector, that, according to the Phila delphia Record, Fenimore Cooper wrote to his publishers in 1S31: "I hope you will be wrong In antici pating a bad reception for 'The Bravo.' I cannot tell you much of Its reception in Europe, though Gosselln says it is very decidedly successful in France. -America is, of all couutries, one of the least favorable to works of the imagination. In Europe, or, rather in England, where there has existed a necessity of accounting for some suc cess In the very teeth of the'r preju dices and wishes. It has been the fash ion to say that no writer ever enjoyed so favorable an opportunity as I, be cause I am an American and a sailor. As to the sailor part of the business, it Is grossly absurd; for what advant- age has an American sailor over any other? They know the falsehood of what they say iu this respect, for I can get 3.000 for a nautical tale that j shall celebrate English skill to-morrow. "For myself. I can write two Euro- pean stories easier than I can write ' one American. Why, Europe itself is a romance, while all America Is a matter-of-fact, humdrum, common-sense region from Quaddy to Cape Florida." None Required. He was obviously anxious, and she seemed almost willing. "1 shall refer you to papa," said she, with a becoming Mush, "before giving you a final answer." "But 1 am perfectly willing to take you without any reference." said he. magnanimously. Indianapolis News. ANOTHER GRAND REPORT FROM HIS MAJESTY'S DOCKYARD. AT PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND. Where Upwards of 10,000 Men Are Con. stantly Employed. Some time ago the Portsmouth Times and Naval Gazette published a most thrilling and remarkable experience of the wife of Mr. Frederick Payne, him self connected with the Portsmouth Dockyard for many years. The report produced a great sensation, not only in Portsmouth, but throughout the coun try, being considered of sufficient im portance for reprod action and editorial comment by the leading metropolitan and Provincial Press of England, as showing the marvelous powers which St. Jacobs Oil possesses as a cure for Rheumatism, its application having effected a perfect cure in the case of Mrs. Payne, after having been a help less cripple and given up by several physicians. We have now further evidence of its intrinsic value as a Pain Conqueror. Our readers will do well to follow the intelligent and highly interesting de tails as given in Mrs. Rabbets' own words : To the Proprietors St. Jacobs Oil : Gentlemen My husband, who is a shipwright in His Majesty's Dockyard, met with an accident to his ankle and leg, spraining both so badly that his leg turned black from his knee to his toes. The Dr. said it would be months before he could put his foot to the ground, and it was doubtful whether he would ever get proper use of his leg again. A few davs after the accident I had a book left at the door telling about St. Jacobs Oil, I procured a bottle from our chemist, Mr. Arthur Creswell, 379 Commercial Road. I began to use St. Jacobs Oil, and you may guess my sur prise, when in about another week from that date, my husband could not only stand, but could even walk about, and in three weeks from the time I first ued the Oil my husband was back at work, and everybody talking about his wonderful recovery. This is not all. Seeing what St. Jacobs Oil could do gave me faith in your- Vogeler's Cur ative Compound, also favorably men tioned in the book left at my house. I determined to try the compound on my little girl, who was suffering from a dreadful skin disease, the treatment of which has cost me large turns of money in going from one doctor to another with her, all to no purpose. She has taken two bottles of Vogeler's Curative Compound, and one would now hardly take her for the same child, her skin has got such a nice, healthy color after the sallow look she has always had. I shall never cease to be thankff ul for the immense benefit we have derived from these two great remdies of yours. I think it a duty to recommend these medicines now I have proved their value.

S GOOD j Sbort Storie$ Shortly after Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" made Its appear ance, J. T. Trowbridge was walking with Lowell in Cambridge, when the latter pointed out a doorway sign. "Groceries,'' with" the letters set zig zag, to produce a bizarre effect. "That," said he, 'is Walt Whitman with very comma goods inside." While he was In England, "Mark Twain says his head was once taxed as gasworks. He wrote Queen Victoria a friendly letter of protest, saying: "I don't know youK but Pre met your son. He was at the head of a procession in the Strand, and I was on a 'bus." Years afterward he met the Prince of Wales, now TCtng Edward VII- at Horn burg. They had a long walk and talk to gether. When bidding him good by, the Prince said: "I am glad to have met yen again.' This remark troubled Twain, who feared that he had been mistaken for some one else. He com municated this suspicion to the Prince, whe replied: "Why, don't you remem ber when you met me on the Strand and I was at the bead of a procession, and you were on a 'bus?" It Is related that about ten years ago Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford were traveling through the Middle West in cognito. They happened to be in JBloemlngton, Ind., one Sunday, and pursuant to their usual custom went to church. They attended the, Christian Church of Bloomington, then largely In the hands of Amzl Atwater. When the plate was passed for the collection Mrs. Stanford dropped in a ten-dollar gold piece. Mr. Atwater was the dea con In charge of the collection taking. It was noticed that the ushers held a hurried conference with him when the money was taken forward. At Its con clusion, Mr. Atwater said: "Ladies and gentlemen, there has evidently been a mistake. Some one has dropped a ten-dellar gold piece Into the collection. If he will pass up after the services, we will be glad to allow him to ex change it for the amount be intended to give." It is, of course, needless to say that Mrs. Stanford did not take advantage of the opportunity. The manager of an Eastern life insur ance company received the following letter from a policyholder: "1 hold pol icy In your company. No. , dated 27th July, 1900, for $20,000, on which 1 have paid the yearly premiums."! have now to Inform you that my physician advises me that I have a pronounced case of appendicitis, and his diagnosis is confirmed by a specialist whom I have consulted. I am told that the only hope of saving my life is an operation, which with hospital expenses will cost $S00, an amount that I have no means to pay. I am sensible that I owe it to you, who have so large a pecuniary in terest in my life, to give you the option to pay the cost of this operation to save my life that I may continue to pay you for the yearly premiums on my policy (I believe that I am otherwise strong and healthy), or in the alternative to pay the $20,000 to my beneficiary with in a few weeks, i am quite willing to be examined by any physician you may name, and to have you select the oper ating surgeon. Immediate attention is, of course, imperative." The manager is at a loss to know whether or not, from a business standpoint, the com pany should pay the cost of operating. Lake Hannington. Sir II. Johnstone, in a recent speech, gave the following picturesque descrip tion: "The waters appear a very deep blue-green, and their surface is so still, and their mirror-like reflection is so complete, that when coming upon the lake suddenly it is difficult to realize that you are looking down upon a lake, and not upon some awful chasm in the earth's surface, over which hundreds of thousands of flamingoes are floating: for the only thing real about the lake when seen uuder these conditions are the flamingoes. Seen from above, they look like a belt, which on its outer side is gray-white, the young birds; white In the middle, the half-grown ones; and possess an inner ring of the most ex quisite rose tint, the full-grown birds, in the full beauty of a plumage whicn ranges from pale blush-pink to scarlet-crimson." Tired Out " I was very poerry and could hirtfrr get about the house. I was tired out all the time. Then I tried AVer's Sarsaparilla, and it only teek two bottles to make me feel perfectly well."

Delicately formed and gently reared, women will find, in all the seasons of their lives, as maids or wives or mothers, that the one simple, wholesome remedy which acts grently and pleasantly and naturally, and which may be used with trnly beneficial effeets, Tinder any conditions, when the system needs a laxative is Syrnp of Figs. It ia well known to be a simple com bination of the laxative and carminative principles of plants with pleasant, aromatic liquids, which are agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system when its gentle cleansing is desired. Many of the ills from which women suffer are of a transient nature and do not come from any organic trouble and it is pleasant to know that they yield so promptly to the beneficial effects of Syrnp of Figs, but when anything more than a laxative is needed it is best to consult the family physician and to avoid the old-time cathartics and loudly advertised nos trums of the present day. "When one needs only to remove the strain, the torpor, the congestion, or similar ills, which attend upon a constipated condi tion of the system, use the true and gentle remedy Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the depres sion, the aches and pains, colds and headaches, which are due to inactivity of the bowels. Only those who buy the genuine Syrnp of Figs can hope to get its beneficial effects and as a guar antee of the excellence of the remedy the full name of the company California Fig Syrup Co. i9 printed on the front of every package and without it any preparation offered as Syrup of Figs is fraud ulent and should be declined. To those who know the quality of this excellent laxative, the offer of any substitute, when Syrup of Figs is called for, is always resented by a transfer of patronage to some first-class drug establishment, where they do not recommend, nor sell false brands, nor imitation remedies. The genuine article may be bought of all reliable druggists everywhere at 50 cents per bottle. lirrMjlgiRVP(c 1 1 01 III Pi p
