RICE TELLS HOW HE WAS CURED. Crippled for Six Yean With Sciatic Rheumatism In Its Wont Form He Expected to Die, But Was Saved in a Marvelous Manner. From the Covington (Ky.) Post. The Hon. John M. Rice of Louisa, .past two years retired from active life as Criminal and Circuit Judge of the Six teenth Judicial District of Kentucky. He has for many years served his na tive county and State in the Legislature at Frankfort and at Washington, and until his retirement was a noted figure in pplitical and judicial circles. The Judge is well known throughout the State, and possesses the best qualities which go to make a Kentucky gentleman honorea wherever he is known. About six years aeo the bodily troubles which finally caused his retirement at a time when his mental faculties were in the zenith of their strength began their encroachment upon his naturally strong constitution. A tew days ago a Ken tucky Post reporter''called upon Judge T?iV. vhn in t.h following words related the history of the cause that led to his retirement: " It ia just about six years since I had an attack of rheumatism, slight at first, but soon developing into sciatic rheumatism, which began first with acute shooting pains in the hips, gradually extending downward to my feet. ' " My condition became so bad that I eventually lost all power of my legs, and then the liver, kidneys and bladder, and in fact my whole system, became de ranged. I tried the treatment, of many physicians; but, receiving no lasting benefit from them, I had recourse to pat ent remedies, trying one kind after an other until I believe there were none 1 had not sampled. "In 1888. attended by mv son John, I went to Hot Springs, Ark. I was not much benefited by some months' i 11 l. .. T . , 1, "VT .. Dbnj uroiv, tt iiv it iviuiiitu nynny. liver was actually dead, and a dull per sistent pain in its region kept me on the rack all the time. In 1800 I was reap pointed Circuit Judge, but it was impos- . Bible for me to give attention to my du ties. In 1891 I went to the Silurian Springs, Wakeshaw, Wis. I stayed there 'some time, but without improvement. "Again I returned home, this time feeling no hopes of recovery. The mus cles of my limbs were now reduced by atrophy to mere strings. Sciatic pains tortured me terribly, but it was the dis ordered condition of my liver that I felt eraduallv wearine mv life awav. Doc- tors gave me up, all kinds of remedies had been tried without avail, and there - was nothing more for me to do but re sign myself to late. " I lingered on in this condition, bus tained almost entirely by stimulants, until Anril. 1803.' One dav John saw an account of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for .raie reopie in me aihucu ron. xnis was something new, and as one more drug after so many others could not do so much harm, John prevailed upon me to try the Pink Pins, it was, 1 think, in the first week of May the pills arrived. I remember I was not expected to live for more than three or four days at the time. The eflect of the pills, however, was marvelous, and I could soon eat heartily, a thing 1 had not done for years. The liver began" almost instantaneously to perform its functions, and has done so ever ' since. Without doubt the pills saved my life, and while I do not crave notoriety I cannot refuse to testify to their worth." The reporter called upon Mr. Hughes, the Louisa druggist, who informed him that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been very popular since Judge Rice used them with such benefit. He mentioned sev eral who have found relief in their use. An analysis of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People shows that they contain in a condensed form all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial pa ralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neu ralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complex ions, all forms of weakness either in male or female, and all diseases result ing from vitiated humors in the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent postpaid on re ceipt of price (50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50 they are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by addressing Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. lo WALL ST., NEW-YORK. Married Women and Girls' Secrets. "There is nothing so exasperating in the whole world as to tell a profound secret to iome woman friend and discover a day or two later that her husband knows as much about the affair as you do," said a young girl to us the other day. "You see, one forgets that because a girl is married she must retail everything to the man whom she has favored with her hand, and if you have been chums for years it naturally fol lows that you go on telling her little so crets in the old time way, until a few shocks teach you that things are very dif ferent from the good old days when there was no third party to be taken into our confidence. Really, I think it is very mean of them; don't youf Of course it isn't anything for a wife to tell her husband all the little happenings of her own life, but when it comes to revealing other women's secrets I think it positively dishonorable. "I know when I am married I will keep all the little confidences made by my girl friends locked fast in my own breast, for I am never going to mortify them as I have been by learning that a certain escapade or love episode that was too good to keep entirely to myself, yet not the thing to spread broadcast, had become common property because my friend had told her husband, who told some one at the clu b, etc. Sometimes I really think that the only way to actually keep a secret Is not to tell it to any one, but there is no fun in that. The zest is all gone when no one else knows it, but of one thing I am certain, I will never trust a married woman- with anything I care to keep absolutely between ourselves." Detroit Tribune. Mrs. Browning's Habits. Mrs. Browning wore her hair in long ringlets, which, falling very much over her face, and when seen In profile suggest ed the unpleasing idea of blinkers that harshly cut across the graceful curves of brow and cheek. It was this style of ar ranging the bair that made Mrs. Brown ing look, not old fashioned for that would have given a touch of sentiment but strangely out of fashion. Her slight, pret ty figure was rather disguised than set off by garments that fell lopping about her, but, thank heaven, she was entirely free from the bad taste of the self styled clever women who acknowledge themselves to be failures as women by aping a masculine style of dress and address. In conversation Mrs. Browning seemed reserved, with a certain proud aloofness of manner; at the same time there was a lis tening reticence in her attitude that did not help the playful tossing to and fro of talk, Occasionally she flung her remarks into the midst of the discussion, and such remarks were weighed, measured and full of sense and purpose. It was evident that Mrs. Browning had not thrown off the habit acquired in the years of silence in her darkened chamber of conversing in a a one sided way with the best books, which is vastly different from conversing with the best men. Chicago News. Home Dressmaking.- v The sensible woman, she who has the best taste and knows just how to make the best of it, is learning, if she doesn't thor oughly understand it already, to have her dresses made' at home. There never was a time in the history of clothes when so much dressmaking was done at home. Women have grown tired, oh, so tired, of the same ness of custom dressmaking. The mistress of the household selects some young girl or woman who is handy with her needle, then she goes studiously to work and plans her own wardrobe. First of all, she .tries her hand on an inexpensive dress, and if she makes a success of it, which she is very likely to do, she goes on from one de gree of perfection to another. Three-fourths of the difficulty about dressmaking likes in the fact that women do not 'realize what absurd figures they cut in the clothes they wear. Once let the full consciousness of this dawn on them, and the work is done; for never afterward will they consent to look ridiculous, or what is even worse, commonplace, while harmony, symmetry and beauty can. be had by working for it; for whatever her follies and vanities may be, the. American woman isn't lazy, especially when it comes to matters of adornment. What a Tyise Mother Can Do. A wise mother can take ten minutes every day and read to her children a few words on astronomy, geology or physiolo gy. Not dry statistics, which carry no knowledge to the .little minds, but the names of planets and stars, their places and the mythological story connected with them; stories of the strata of rocks, with coal and other minerals buried beneath clay and stones; how the hot waters and the cold are deep down under us, waiting for man until he needs them and discovers their hiding places; stories of our own bones and nerves, muscles and blood; the course of our food from the mouth to the stomach; how fresh air invigorates us, and stimulants dry up the tissues. It is aston-' ishing how easily little children learn the long words and use them intelligently. All these subjects and a hundred more are brought before them every day in a rightly conducted kindergarten. Home Journal. THE, FACE OF A MURDERER.. Photographed by Some Mysterious ProceM on the Gravestone of His Victims. In the little prairie town of Washta, Cherokee county, la., there stands a grave stone that is credibly said to show on its face the dimly traced features of a mur derer, the assassin of the old couple whose remains Ho buried underneath. The mar velous likeness of this gravestone portrait of the man, now that he-is missing, after THE HAUNTED GRAVESTONE. Photographed by Johnson, Sioux City, la. having once been suspected of the crime, has aroused the prosecuting attorney of the county to a vigorous search for him, while the superstitious country folk there-, abouts for miles around are making pil grimages to the cemetery to see this won derful manifestation of supernatural forces, for such it seems to be. , The gravestone, says the New 5Tork World, marks the spot where lie an old German couple named Schultz, who were murdered in their own home in the mid dle of the night. They lived a short dis tance from the town and were staying alone in the house at the time. The old man had brought home a few days before a considerable amount of money, which he had taken from a bank on account of the panic. In the morning the old folks were found, their heads split open with an ax, and there were evidences that there had been a struggle. The money was gone. The murder created a groat sensation on account of its fearful details. There was nothing to indicate In any way who had committed it, but the neighbors suspected that the murderer might havo been W. S. Florence, a hired hpnd who had been in the Schultzes' employ until a short time before. A few weeks after the murder Florence loft that section and went to. Ne braska. As soon as he had gone the stories began to gain more currency than ever, and the result was that detectives were employed by the county authorities to hunt him down. Ho was found and taken back to Cherokee county. The grand jury examined him, but for want of evidence discharged him. He promptly disappeared and has not been heard of since. About the same time that the grand jury was engaged in the investigation of this case the relatives of the old couple had a plain marble headstone placed over their grave. - The grave is in a little coun try burying ground on the side of a hill, within sight of the house In which' the murder was committed. Before many weeks strange stories began to be told about It. . At first they were whispered about the neighborhood, and the supersti tious people of the countryside shook their heads wisely and often gathered in groups at the roadside or at the village blacksmith shop. It was said that the tombstone was slowly but surely develop ing human lineaments, just as a photog rapher s plate, under the action of chem lcals, develops the lines in the negative. The face continued to grow more and more distinct and to be more and more talked about until it attracted the atten tion of the authorities. They inspected it, and the most unprejudiced were compelled to admit that thoy could see the features of a man. A marble dealer was taken to see it. Ho declared that the features were being developed as a result of exposure to atmospheric- influences of the rust and veins in the stone. He said it would con tinue to grow plainer. This prediction has now been verified. The picture on the slab has become dis tinct to even the most'casual observer, and today there is not a person who knew Florence that does not declare that the features show a startling resemblance to his. ,;t - What is equally prophetic is the fact that since the picture has been developing on the stone and the suspicion has become general that Florence was the murderer there has developed evidence not known at the time of his examination before the grand jury that points to the conclusion that he was really guilty. Florence has dropped out of the world apparently. It Is supposed that he has heard of' the strange developments and got as far away as pos sible. He Dislikes Tarantulas. 1 "Of all the venomous looking creatures in the world I think a full grown taran tula is about the worst," said Isaac L. Worley of Texas to a St. Louis Globe- Democrat man, "and if you ever encoun ter one give him a wide berth unless you are sure you can kill him. When at tacked, they will fight desperately and never give up until crushed out of exist ence. 1 had an experience with one a few years ago, the thought of which still makes the cold chills run down my back. I had been working in my garden, one afternoon, and on entering the house threw myself down on a bed to take a nap. I was awakened by feeling a hairy object brushing against my hand, and on open ing my eyes was horrified to see an im mense tarantula slowly crawling up the leg of my pantaloons. I grabbed a big palmetto fan that lay on my pillow and knocked him to the floor, and you ought to have seen that fellow show fight. . He never made the least attempt to get out of the way, but with every hair on his ugly body standing erect he remained where I had knocked him, as if challenging me to light. Fortunately for me, there was a club within reach, and with one blow I put an end to his existence." - Swallowed Her Husband's Ashes. The only case on record of a disconsolate widow swallowing the remains of her dead husband is that of Artemesia drinking a glass of wine in which the ashes of Mau solus had been stirred for that purpose. The parties to this remarkable transaction were brother and sister and also husband and wife. Mausolus was king of Carta and reigned about 800 years before Christ. After his death his remains were burned and the ashes disposed of as related. Electric Executions. The new system of putting murderers to death by the use of the electrio chair In stead of the hangman's noose has been found to work so well that opposition has eomplotely disappeared, and nobody would now think of proposing a return to the gallows, says the New York Evening Post. The Latest Hypnotio Yarn. The latest hynotic yarn from the Char ite hospital, Paris, casts all its prede cessors into the shade. Dr, Lnys, it ap pears, has been making experiments in relation to what he calls the "exteriori zation" of the human body, and it is as serted that he succeeded in transferring the sensibility of a hypnotized woman into a tumbler of water. When the water was touched the woman 'winced, and when it was swallowed she went into a deadly swoon. How the drinker felt with another person's sensibilities in his vitals is not stated. . ' Dr. Luys next undertook to transfer sensibility from the woman to her pho tograph, and succeeded so admirably that when he stuck a pin into the picture the woman screamed. Not only this, but the mark of a Scratch appeared upon her hand in exactly the spot where the pin had been applied to the photograph. It is lucky for Dr. Luys that he ia living in the Nineteenth century, for many an old woman has been hanged and Igirned for doing this sort of thing. Denver Sun. The Loss In Gold Coin. A remarkable example of the loss of gold by reason of abrasion came to the notice of the Chicago customs officials the other day. George W. Sheldon & Co. sent $15,000 in gold to the collector to pay duties. The sum was in equal amounts, made up of $5, $10 and $20 pieces. The teller found that the coin footed up all right taken at its face value, and it was sent over to the sub treasury. Pretty soon word came back to the collector that the $15,000 in gold was $1,035 short weight and the deficit would have to be made up before a re ceipt would be issued. Examination proved that the coin had been abraded to that extent nearly 13 per cent. Bos ton Globe. ' NEAEINO THE GRAVE.

In these days when the severest tests are applied in every department of athletio exercise, walking, running, bicycle-riding, tennis, etc., those who share in the contests must provide against emergencies. Harry Brooks, the champion walker, gives the re sult of twenty years' experience as follows: "Numerous statements relative to the merits of different plasters having been brought to my attention, I take this oppor tunity to state that I have used Allcock's Porous Plastebs for over twenty years and prefer them to any other kind. I would furthermore state that I was very sick with catarrh of the kidneys, and attribute my recovery entirely to Allcock's Fobous fLASTKES." Bbakdbetb's Fills the safest nureative known. ' Sllmpurse has bought him another of those peppsr-and-alt suits, I Bee." "Yep; says it's the only way he can afford to be always dressed Id season." There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases puttogether, and until the last few years was supposed to be in curable. For a great many years doctors pro- nouncea it a local disease, ana prescribed local remedies, and byconstantly failing to cure with local treatment ronounced it incurable.
