Robert Robinson, better known as ••Old Bob," a life convict in the north ern prison, died Friday night at the a~e of 80. Robinson was notorious through out all the northern part of Indiana among the thousands of excursionists who annually visit tho prison as perhaps the first one on record who positively re fused a pardon and regarded the prison as an acceptable home. Robmson was sent to the prison at Jeffersonville, Ind., in 1857 from Wayne county to serve a life senten -e for mur der. After serving two years there he was transferred with others to this city to assist in building the northern prison. After the labor was finished he worked on contracts until he grew old, and then during the wardenshipof the late ( lharles Mayne in the seventies ho became • •trusty" and a farmhand. As he ad- tm ccil,in age his oddities grew upon him. Early in his prison career he form ed a strong attachment for dumb ani mals and made pets of dogs, rabbits, squirrels and foxes. II” also developed into a great hunter and trapper and would frequently turn his skill to finan cial account. Once during the Mayne regime Bob got lost while hunting in Porter county, west of the city, and actually hired a man to bring him back to tho prison. In 1877 Governor Williams offered Robin son a pardon, but he rejected it.—Michi gan City Cor. Chicago Tribune. W O R K IN G W O M A N 'S D R E SSM AKIN G. T ru e E c o n o m y Is In t a r i n g Fr.

Every one, so they say, has a pet econ omy, and tiie business woman the work ing woman, always tries to economize by doing her own dressmaking. Sue likes to dress well, and it does seem so extravagant to pay so much for what she might do herself. It requires a brave woman to attack her headgear, but with clever fingers and good taste a dress doesn't seem such an undertaking, and often it quite saves the price of another gown. But really you ought not to do it at all. If your day's work is fulfilled con scientiously. you ought to give the even ings to rt -t and amusement. Yon wonld only sit and read, you say? Well, then, just sit and read. Reading doesn't give you that sharp pain in your side. Read ing doesn't key yon up to a point of fe verish excitement because you want to get ro much done. If yon like to sew you can always have a dainty bit of fancy work on hand, or if you have set your heart ou some lux urious addition to your wardrobe that will give you exercise for your needle. Then there is always your mending, and the really dainty woman finds more than enough to fill the time she should give to evening employment. But. as for dressmaking, don't try your tired eyes with it at night. Ever}* little worry- some pucker in the dress is going to leave a little worried wrinkle in your face, and every new gown will increase that miserable nervousness that preys upon so many American women. Even ing is not the right time to conquer com plicated dress patterns, and you had much better do with fewer dresses and hand your material over to the profes sional dressmaker, who perhaps just needs your work to pay for some help that will give her a little time for rest. A man never thinks of attempting to make his own clothes as an economic measure, but a woman clings to quality and quantity of ra.nent and heads her list of economies by making it up herself. That does very well for the woman whose days are her own, though often enough it would pay her bettpr to depend on some one else, bnt for the woman who has only the evenings for all the little odd jobs that somehow lielong to a wom an's life it is bad policy to add evening dressmaking to her daily duties and means a weary middle age, lacking en ergy for duty and application for pleas ure.—Philadelphia Times. st Lily Dale the strangest performance f r i •ver seen on a spiritualistic camp ground, writes the Washington correspondent of A B SO LU TELY the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. ‘ ‘ An In dian seance” was what the promot PURE.

I sent at once for a bottle of 8t. Jacobs Oil, ami before the botilewas half empty ! could go about my w< rk. My hushandd l eonine so lame < e ceuld not get out of bed.

She was also very beautiful. Her arrival greatly agitated the chappies, who flocked to the street meetings. Finally one young blood made a bet that he would secure au ap pointment with the beauty for that same night, and approaching her after the meeting he slipped into her hand a $20 goldpiece. She put it in her pocket. "A nd—ah—where shall I meet you by and by?" pursued the masher. "In heaven.

Vou need not take WALTER BAKER & CO. DCRCKEST ER, MASS. our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in mis representing them, and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against > \ \ j a trial of “ Golden Medical Discovery,” but who have been forced to confess that it surpasses, in curative power over this fatal malady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted. Nasty cod liver oil and its filthy “ emulsions” and mixtures, had l>een tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to bene fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hvpophos- phites had also l>een faithfully tried in vain.

Steele <fc Co. of San Francisco secured by su cession the prop erty in a trade mark known as “ Diamond L,” which had been patented in 1871 by 0. Adolph Low & Co. Under that brafid and trade mark K. L. G. Steele A Co. ha«l s >ld a tea which had become known far and wide for its excellence and in which they had built up*a heavy trade. In 1888 the sales of the tea had fallen oil' so heavily that the firm 8€t an inquiry afoot and discovered that Ltevre, Frick A Co. of San Francisco were selling a spurious maunder that brand. E. L. G. Steele & Co. compelled them to confess and to promise not to repeat the of fense. They appear not to have kept their agreement, however, as this week E. L. G. Steele & Co. brought an action against the same firm, alleging infringement and de manding |n0.000 damages. All honest deal ers who have built up a business on fair dealing will lend iheir niorul support to the punishment of all such rascality as this. Men who confess their own lack «jf ability by endeavoring dishonestly to prosper at the expense of more worthy and successful men, and at the same time defraud the community, are enemies **f the community and of all honest me* chants. E. L. G. Steele A Co. have always been one of th»* sound and trustworthy institutions of San Francisco, and so long as they had a fair field they could not do otherwise than pros per. A stab in the back, however, is a form of competition in which their integrity does not permit them to embark, and their only recourse is expensive and annoying litigation to protect themselves.
