Y. DAD BLOOD, DAD COMPLEXION. The skin is the seat of an almost end less variety of diseases. They are known by various names, but are all due to the same cause, acid and other poisons in the blood that irritate and interfere with the proper action of the skin. To have a smooth, soft skin, free from all eruptions, tbe blood must be kept pure and healthy. The many preparations of arsenic and potash and the large number of face powders and lotions generally used in this class of diseases cover up for a short time, but cannot remove per manently the ugly blotches and the red, disfiguring pimples. Ctarn&l vlgSlanoe I the prloe of m beautiful complexion when such remedies are relied on. Mr. K. T. Shobe, S704 Lucas Avenue, at Louis, If o., says : " Mr daughter was afflicted for years Mh a disfiguring eruption on her face, which tcsMtcd all treatment. She. was taken to two celebrated health springs, but received no bene fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with out result, until we decided to try 8. 8. 8., and by tbe time the first bottle as finished the eruption began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her completely and left her akin perfectly smooth. Che la now seventeen years old, and not a sign of she embarrassing disease has ever returned." S. S.

Bad blood makes bad complexions. purifies and invigo rates the old and makes new, rich blood that nourishes the body and 'keeps the kin active and healthy and in proper condition to perform its part towards carrying off the impurities from the body.

For $2,000 has been sold in. Paris piece of lace which was tbe cause of a quarrel between Napoleon and Jo sephine, in which the cheeks of the Em press were slapped. It had bn the property of Mile. Perusset, daughter of a favorite maid of the flighty Empress. Napoleon had brought the lace from Italy, lie often brought her beautiful things on bis return from a successful campaign, and Josephine never asked him how he had got them, for she thought that perhaps he would not care to tell. It was a large square of the finest old point de Ventse, and Josephine, as soon as she had It In her possession, sent for M. Duplan, her man-milliner, and asked him to make with it a certain nchu and a peplutn. "Impossible, your majesty," answered Duplan, "the piece Is too large, and we could not arrange It gracefully." "Well cut It. thenr "Cut a treasure such as that! Oh, madam, I could not do such a thtng!" "Nonsenser cried Josephine. The lace was draped on her shoulders; she knew how she wanted it; so she calmly took a pair of scissors, and in a second had It set right, while long, narrow pieces of tut priceless stuff fell round her. At this moment tbe Emperor entered the room. "Cannlbaler be cried. And he gave her a sounding slap on her violently rouged cheeks, which were soon covered with tears. Duplan dis creetly withdrew, and the lace was thrown into a chest of drawers. Jo sephine could not bear the sight of after that, and gave It to Mme. Perns set, her favorite maid. The odd bits of It have now been sold for $2,000. An other bundle fetched $1,000. The passion of Josephine for lace caused frequently scenes between her and Napoleon. She would have lace. and she seldom let anything stand In the way of acquiring it It Is even said that this frivolous fancy helped to bring about her downfall, for Na poleon, who at first would not hear of forsaking her, one day said to the Prince De Wagram: "The cup Is full now, Prince. What do you think Jo sephine did lately? 'Nobbled' one of my young generals, and made him pass lace for her in his top boots through my own frontier! Her soul is made of lace, Prince, and that Is too fragile a stuff for an Empress' soul."' GALLANT SENATOR SPOONER. I he Wiacona'm Mao Bays a Woman's Fried Oysters In a Keataarant, While the national convention of the W. C T. U. was In session In Wash ington one of the California delegates, an elderly lady, went Into a restaurant on Q street, looked the bill of fare over carefully, and ordered fried oysters. "How many?" asked the waiter. "Oh," she said, remembering the di minutive oyster of California, "I guess a dozen and a half will do." The waiter lifted his eyebrows, but took the order back to the kitchen. In due time he appeared with an enormous platter full of fried oysters, each half as large as a man's hand. The California lady nearly fainted. "Take them away," she gasped. "I never, never ordered that great mass of food." "That's a dozen and a half fried oys ters, ma'am," the waiter replied. There was some hysterical but vain argument on the part of the delegate from California. She was told she would have to pay for the oysters, but she needn't eat them unless she chose to do so. Just then Senator Spooner came In and sat down at the next table. The W. C. T. TJ. delegate, almost in tears, leaned over and asked imploringIy:"Oh, sir, do you like fried oysters V Senator Spooner stared. "I have eaten them, madam," he replied, with dignity. "Then please buy these; please, please do." "But," said the Senator, laughing, "I never eat them now, for I find they promote indigestion." The lady exhibited her white ribbon badge and implored again: "Oh, you haven't eaten anything yet; please buy these," "Well, I'll buy them, but I assure you madam, I do not contract to eat them." And he paid the check, while the delegate from California almost ran out of the restaurant. The Business Instinnt. Poverty-stricken Suitor Sir, I have come to ask you for your daughter's hand.

Cotton is rather quiet and unchanged on the week, while cotton goods are without much movemeut except to slightly weaker quotations for gray cloths at Boston. Wool is dull and rather easy. Out side ot tha Uuited States, however, the situation ia a strong one. Manufac turers will only buy against orders and except in plain drew woolens nothing special is doing. Lumber is rather qniet, bnt it is to be noted that whits pine stocks are slightly smaller than last year. War is reported broken in rubber goods and quotations bare certainly been out. Sugar prices are also lower. The feature of the week in iron and steel has been the large sale ot steel rails reported from Chicago, 25,000 tons being reported sold in oue lot. Bessemer iron producers have re duced wages 15 per cent. Export trade is still quiet. Wheat (including flour) shipments tor the week aggregate 3,914,301 bush els, against 8,668,165 last week.

Ton cati't convince, the coo!! of the Grenadine Islands, West Indies, that then is any harm In eaUng dirt His own diseases ought to couvluce htm, but they don't The rest of their diet is simple and meager. For the most part they are vegetarians, They eat rlee, peas, curry and ghee, a specially pre pared butter In great use. Most pro fesslug vegetarians do not exclude from their diet milk aud eggs, but these coolies will not touch either except when they are In a hospital aud forced to do so. To hard workers In the caue Acids under a scotvhlug tropical sua such a frugal diet cauuot be supposed to be productive of health or robust ness. And when to this sort of food Is added the luxury of dirt-catlug It Is no wonder that these coolies are bloodless and stiff jointed. These ilia are char acteristic of tbe race. Coolie patteuts In the English hospi tals of Carrlacou, one of the Grenadine Islands, frequently are found to have gravel hidden la their clothing, aud they cry and beg for It like the mor phine eater for hts dope. This stuff which they eat Is a soft slate-colored or grayish stone. Sometimes the pul verised dirt Is made Into cakes. If there Isn't much of this to be had the coolies eat rags, paper and coke. A coolie who Is well along In the art of dlrt-eatlng Is swollen all over the body and the muscles of his legs are teuse. Ills face Is puffy and has a dis tressing look of weariness and prema ture age. lie is short ot breath and Is unable to speak, so that he has to make signs to Indicate his condition. His tongue Is swolleu and flabby and lies In the floor of his mouth, from which he cannot raise It from pure weakness. It Is marked strongly with tmpresslous ot the teeth. He has severe headaches, dimness of sight and paius In the abdo men. His skin Is thin, flabby and lack ing of firmness, and even In tbe case ot children feels like the skin of an aged person. The complexion Is pasty. But to have the diseases Incident to dlrt-eatlng It Is not necessary to eat dirt Intentionally. Laborers In the fields, who rarely wash their hands, have been known to take enough dirt Into their stomachs by handling their food with their unwashed hands to acquire all the Ills which afflict those who eat dirt be cause they like it Hot Iron tor Animals. "When all other, methods of control ling wild beasts fail the keeper has only to employ an Iron rod which has been made red hot at one end," said an old circus man to a Washington Star reporter. "Lions and tigers will cringe before the heated poker and no matter bow restless and fretful they may have been the sight of the glowing Iron Im mediately brings them to their best of animal senses. It has an almost hyp notic influence over the beasts. I have seldom heard of an animal being burn ed in this manner, however, so there Is nothing cruel In the treatment. It would not do for the keeper to burn the charges under bis care, for tbe scars would mar the animal for exhibition purposes. The hot Iron Is a terror Just the same and under its persuasion the kings of the jungle are docile and ready to do what Is wanted of them. "In circus menageries the animals often become almost unmanageable. This Is true of the younger specimens, who do not like the idea of being so closely housed, so much hauled about and often cut off from the light of the outside world. When It becomes neces sary to give their cage a thorough and sanitary cleansing one attendant holds the beast In a corner by means of the red-hot iron, while another thoroughly cleanses the remaining portion of the cage the work being accomplished by brooms and mops from the outside. In changing tbe wilder animals from the cages employed on the road to the larger and more commodious quarters of the winter station, what we call s Ftrong box Is used. The wagon Is haul ed alongside the large cage and tbe steel strong box, open at both ends, Is constituted a passageway. The ani mals hesitate to make a journey through such a suspicious-looking ob ject, however, and again the heated Iron must be brought Into play." Closeness Personified. There's a good story told on a young fellow here noted for bis closeness. He went to spend the night with a friend. During the entire night he betrayed much restlessness, which kept the host wide awake, and finally the slumberer betrayed signs of violent emotion. "He's going to have a nightmare," said the friend, "but be always grumbles so when you wake him up that I hate to disturb him." He waited a while longer, sitting up in bed staring on the miserable sleeper, and finally, becom ing alarmed, he roused him. He sprang up In bed, glared wildly around and said: "Where am I? I don't see tbe storm?" "Why, here in my room," said the host; soothingly; "you remember you stayed all nlgbt with me? I beg your pardon for waking you up, but you carried on so I had to." "Beg my pardon," gasped the guest. "I shall never be grateful enough to you. I dreamed I was out with Miss Bud and a terrible storm came up, and my shoes were new, and I was Just or dering a coupe for two when you roused me. Old boy, you have saved me a dollar." And tbe host says he was actually afraid to go to sleep again that night, for fear the coupe would come. Louis ville Times. . Hemlnded.

She turned as a last resort to Dr. William' Pinkl'ilU, sud the won tier worked by this remftikable medi cine are told in her own words: "I was afflicted for years with St. Vitus' Dance. The first symptoms of the disease began in 1880, when the nerve began twitching iu my left hand. I consulted physician ot this city, but uoue ot thui ever did me a partlole of good.
