Ml Humors
Are impure matters which the skin,
liver, kidneys and other organs can
not take care of without help, there ia
uch an accumulation of them.
' They litter the whole system.
Pimples, boils, eczema and other
eruptions, loss of appetite, that tired
feeling, bilious turns, fits of indiges
tion, dull headaches and many other
troubles are due to them.

Six years ago I had a severe attack of

scribed seemed to help me. Finally I be

joints were swollen terribly, and at one
time my joints were so swollen and pain
ful that I could not close them when

PECULIAR INCIDENT IN LIFE
OF
. MRS. MAYBRICK.
Stephen Adams, Composer of the Bonci
Ia Her Brother-la-Law, Michael Mar,
brick Fortune la the Be ml-Sacred
Bang: and Ita History.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Hear the angels sing;
Hosanna in the highest,
Hosanna to the King.
It la not difficult to Imagine Mrs.
Florence Maybrick, once sentenced to
death for the murder of her husband
and now - released, after . spending
many years in an English prison, sing
ing the refralniof' Stephen Adams pop
ular sacred song. "The Holy CSty.
But it ia not generally known that hers
Was the voice which first gave utter
ance to the strains which were desun
ed to become as world famous as those
of Sir Arthnr ' Sullivan's "The Lost
Chord" or "The Palms." by Faure.
The song was the work of the young
er brother of the man Mrs. Maybrick
was convicted of poisoning. Its com
poser was her most relentless enemy
and was mainlv instrumental in se
curing her conviction. .
Few Enirlish comDOsers have more
successful songs to their credit than
Stephen Adams. Few have made such
a fortune out of royalties as he. . It
has been stated that "Nancy Lee"
alone netted him a quarter of a mil
lion dollars. His "Warrior Bold,"
"Midshipmite," and "Blue Alsatian
Mountains" were scarcely less suc
cessful. :
He is now extremely wealthy, a Jus
tice of the peace, and a member of
the Victoria Yacht Club, and he has
served two terms as Mayor of Hyde;
Isle of Wight, in which capacity he
has frequently entertained the King
of England. -
"Stephen Adams" Is merely the
name under which Michael Maybrick
publishes his songs. Mr. Maybrick be-f
gan his musical career as a barytone
singer at local concerts around Liver
pool. He is the son of a well-to-do
shipping agent of Liverpool.
He and his brother were widely dis
similar in tastes, character and phy
sique. The elder was a weakling, fee
ble of mind and body, a hypochondri
ac, addicted to the use of drugs, and
with a mind fixed upon commercial
enterprises.
The younger, Michael, was a mag
nificent specimen of humanity, tall,
broad, and athletic. Of artistic tem
perament, he quit the counting-house
and studied music in Milan and Leip
zig. The elder remained at heme, al-,
ways ailing', always scheming to se
cure more wealth.
The brothers bad only one trait in
common. They were Dotn entnusiasac ,
yachtsmen.. ... .,
Mrs. Maybrick was a good musician.
had a great liking for music, an ex
cellent voice, and a love of conviviali
ty. Thus she drew together to some
extent the brothers who had drifted
apart.
Her husband owned a fine yacht, a
feature of which was a music saloon.
There many well-known singers and
musicians were entertained. Michael
Maybrick, who had just leaped Into
fame as the composer of "Nancy Lee,"
but as yet had not gathered in enough
of the profits to Indulge his passion
for owning a yacht, was a frequent
guest. v
It was one of these musical even
ings, while the yacht was anchored in
the ; Mersey, that Michael Maybrick
produced from his pocket a manu
script song which, he said he had writ
ten that afternoon while dreaming the
time away in bis cabin, and listening
to the splash of the waters. He had
caught the inspiration of. Weatherly's
words, but the voice part only had
been jotted down. The accompani
ment had still to be filled in.
Sitting at the piano, he vamped an
Introduction and asked his sister-in-
law, Mrs. Florence Maybrick, to sing
The Holy Glty" from the voice part.
She was an excellent reader, and read
ily did this, he filling in an extempor
ized accompaniment.
Thus it was her voice which, for the
first time, stirred the air with strains
destined to become almost classic.
It was some years after the trial of
Mrs. Maybrick, and while she was
shut off from the world, buried within
prison walls, that "The Holy City
was published and became popular.
Publishers to whom it was submitted
shook their beads, and declared it too
sombre in character and tone. - t
"Bring us another 'Nancy Lee,' "
they said, "and name your own price.
Another waltz song with the swing of
The Blue Alsatian Mountains' would
be a sure winner. This is very fine,
but it isn't In the Stephen Adams'
style, and the public .would not stand
for 4t" ' ' ' ' '
How erroneous-was the judgment of
those gentlemen has been proved by
the popularity of the song.- Before a
year had passed they were clamoring
for more of : similar character. "The
Star of Bethlehem." "The Valley of
the Sea." and "Children of the City"
followed ;Tftut none of them equaled
the success attained by the song
which was : first sung by Mrs. May
brick, whose tragic history has at
length been brougu.t to a' peaceful con
clusion,, . and who may with special
meaning- hereafter sing:
Hosanna ia the highest.
Hosanna to the King.

world generally, .though nowhere else;
are they so marked, as here,, says -the
Boston Transcript. The old basic Oc
cupations have shown a shrinkage, "at
least with respect to the number of
persons engaged in them. This is -true
to a larger . extent of agriculture than
of almost anything else, though the in
creased use.- of. machinery probably
more than offsets in. the results the re
duced personality. - A comparison- of
the figures tor. 1880 and 1900 show
very interesting and significant changes
for the double decade. Domestic And
personal service -has fallen off, indi
cating a tendency toward contraction
of the borne life. The professions have
increased normally, although the pro
portion of lawyers is considerably
larger than that of, doctors, which may
account for the fact, that the average
of individual rewards in the latter pro
fession are larger than in the .former:
Women have taken a more promin-
ent place " in the ranks' of the world's
workers than ever before. The num
ber engaged In various occupations has
Increased from 2,647,157 in 1880 to
5,319,397 in 1900, or over 100 per cent,
.ine aemana ior entertainment ana
amusement is reflected in" the fact that
the number of actors and showmen
has increased in twenty years 387.36
per cent, and literary pursuits 507.87
per centy though in the dramatic pro
fession and In the literary world' there
are no such shining lights as studded
the more contracted firmament of a
previous generation.
. Artists have swollen their ranks- by
173.21 per cent and architects, design
ers and drafters by 360.43. The den
tists show, a growth in numbers of
140.90 per cent and journalists ef
144.05. But the profession that leads
them all is that of electrical and Civil
engineering, which has attained .the
phenomenal growth of 1,037.34 . per
cent. Of course, in seme of its now
prominent branches its showing was
comparatively small at the beginning
of that period and twenty years of its
history likewise covered the rapid de-
veiupuiem oi aypueu eiecixiciiy tor juie
various purposes in which it is now
employed. There is nothing surprising
in these figures when we consider them
in connection with a service which in
its almost infinite ramifications is hard

ld.
These figures are enlightening. They
now numerous departures and Indi
cate that the present generation must
adjust Itself to" different' conditions
from those which furnished the goals
of endeavor for a previous one. The
greatest increase in any one class of
employes Is In the street railway ser
vice, amounting to 20.90 per cent, and
that can also be accounted for on sim
ilar grounds. As the years go by other
new occupations, vital to our expand
ing civilization, wilL be added and the
largest successes, await those, who can
most clearly and practically anticipate
them. But while we admire the versa
tility and. tho .mental force that have
covered such a great expanse In that
comparatively brief period, it is the
"exceptional' inani" whom we .6till

developed activity. There 'is a splen

JAPAN'S USEFUL PAPERS.
House 'Walls, Sain Coats, Grain Sacks
and Tobacco Pouches.
From the bark of .trees and shrubs
the Japanese make scores of papers,
which are. far ahead, f ours.
The walls of the Japanese houses
are wooden frames covered with thin
paper, which keeps out the wind but
lets in the light, and when one com
pares these paper-walled "doll houses"
with the gloomy bamboo cabins of the.
inhabitants of the island of Java or the
small-windowed huts of our forefa

and. in a rainy climate, these ingenious
people have solved in a remarkable
way the problem of lighting their
dwellings, and, at least in a measure,
of keeping out the cold.
, As a cover for his load of tea, when
a rainstorm overtakes him, the Jap
anese farmer spreads over it a tough,
pliable cover of oiled paper, which is
almost as impervious as tarpaulin and
as light as gossamer. He has doubt

The "rikisha" coolies in the large
cities wear rain mantles of this .oiled
paper, which cost less' than 18 cents,

is as tough as writing paper, can be
