A WOMAN'S HEART.
ONE DISEASE THAT RAFFLES THE
PHYSICIANS.
The Story of n Woman Who Wiiftrred foi
Nine Years—How She Wns Cured.
{From the XV® ark, N. J., Keening News.')
On the summit of a pretty little knoll in
the heart Of the village of Clifton, N. J •i
stands a handsome residence about which
'cluster the elements of what is regarded by
the country people round about as little
short of a miracle. Tho house Is occupiod
by tho family of Mr, (too. Archer, a former
atteche of the police department of New
York City, but who now holds a responsible
position with the Standard Oil Company.
Mr. Archer’s family consists of his wife, a
sprightly little woman, who presents a pic¬
ture of perfect health, and a son, twenty
seven years of age. No one would suppose
to look at Mrs. Archer now that Bhe was for
nearly nine years, and less than two months
ago, an invalid so debilitated that life was
a burden. Yet such was the case, according
to tho.statoments made by Mrs. Archer and
her relatives to a reporter who visited her
pretty home recently.
In 183> she strainol herself in running to
catch a boat. Then ensued a long spell of
illness, resulting from tho tnx upon her
strength. Doctor after doctor was consulted
and while all ngreod that the patient wns
RufDring heart, from a valvular trouble of the
none could afford her the slightest re
lioL
“Oh, the agony t have suffered,” said
Mrs. Archer, in speaking ot her illness. “I
could not walk across the floor; neither
could I go upstairs without stopping to let
the pain in my chest aud left arm cease. I
felt an awful constriction about my arms
and chest as though I were tied with ropes,
Then there was a terrible noise at my right
ear, like the labored breathiogof some great
animal I have often turned expsoting to
see some Creature at my side. The only re¬
lief I obtaine 1 was when I visited Florida
and spent several months there. On my re¬
turn, however, the pain eamo back with re¬
newed force.
'•Last July,” continued Mrs. Archer, “I
Was at Springfield, Mass., visiting, and my
mother stowed mo an account in the
Springfield Examiner, telling oi Dr. the wonder¬
ful cures effected by the use of Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. My mothor
urged me to try tho pills, and on November
25th inst I bought a box and began taking
them, and I have taken them ever since, ex¬
cept for a short interval. Tho first box did
not seem to benefit me, but I persevered,
encouraged by the r< guests of my relatives.
After beginning on the second box, to my
wonder, the noise at my right ear ceased en¬
tirely'. I kept right on and tho distress that
l used to feel in my chest and arm gradually
disappeared. fnoe, nnd The blood which has returned to mj
lips ears, were entirely de¬
void of color, and I feel well and strong
again.
“My son, too, had been troubled with gas¬
tritis and I Induced him to try the Pink
rills, with groat benefit. 1 feel that every¬
body ought to know ot my wonderful cure
and I bless God that 1 have found some¬
thing that has given mo this groat relief."
Mr. Archer confirmed his wife's statement
nnd said that a year ago Mrs. Archer could
not walk one hundred feet without sitting
down to rest.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Tills for Pale Peopleare
not u patent medicine in the sonse in which
that term is usually understood, but are a
scientific preparation successfully used in
general praciice for many years before be¬
ing offered to tho public generally. They
contain in a condensed form all tho elements
necessary to give new life and richness to
tho blood, aud restore shattered nerves.
Theynre an unfailing specific for such dis¬
eases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis,
St. Vitus’ dauee, s-iatica, neuralgia, rheu¬
matism, nervous boa iache, the after effects
of tho grippe, palp.tation of the heart, pale
andsallow complexions, that tired feeling re¬
sulting from nervous prostration ; all dis¬
eases resulting from vitiate I humors in the
blood, such as scrofula, ohrouie erysipelas,
etc. They are also a specific for troubles
peculiar to females, such ns suppressions, Ir¬
oiffm regularities the an 1 nil forms of woukm ess. They ot
up oiood an i restore tn o glow
health to pale or sallow checks, In men
they effect a radical euro in all cases aris¬
ing from mental worry, overwork or ex¬
cesses of whatever nature.
These Tills are manufactured by the Dr.
Williams’s Medicine Company, Schenectady,
N. Y., and are sold only in boxes bearing the
Arm’s trade mark and wrapper, at CO cents a
box, or six boxes for $2.50, and are never
sold in bulk or by the dozon or hundrod.
At the Circus.
The elephant hit tho bars of the ti¬
ger’s cage a whack with his trunk.
< t What do you want?” growled tho
tiger.
“I wanted to know,” replied tho el¬
ephant mildly, “if you knew wo had
gone into winter quarters?
«« Of course, 1 do ; what do you take
mo for?”
“Well,” smiled tho elephant, “I
don’t have to take you for anything,
thank goodness; but if I did, I suppose
I’d take you for medicine,” and he
blew a trunkful of dust into the tiger’s
cage .—Detroit Free Press.
The Sensitive Oyster.
Any man who leaps heavily upon the
deck of an oyster boat is likely to make
an enemy of his master. It is a belief
of oyster-catchers that tho oyster is
peculiarly sensitive to such jars. The
careful oysterman never chops wood
on deck when ho has a cargo ou board,
lest he kill the oysters, aud he dreads
a thunder storm for the same reason.

HOUSEHOLD DUTIES AND GYMNASTICS.
A doctor who has many of the
sex among his patients declares
to keep both spirits and complex¬
in good condition, and to preserve
strength and agility, there is
gymnasium so valuable, no exer¬
more beneficial in its result, than
vigorous round of household
sweeping, dusting, making
and polishing silver and brasses
washing dishes. He furthermore
that a single year of such work
do more for a woman's complex¬
than all tho powders and lotions
ever were made, Which is all
enough, though the assertions
a trifle time-worn, providing the
thus prescribed for has suffi¬
strength to got through her
of sweeping and washing and
and is not hereby turned
a drudge. If she is too tired to
ready to go out for a brisk walk,
attend a lecture or concert, if she
sit down with a fresh, alert
to read and assimilate, there
a word of truth in it. It is true
any exercise which is immediate¬
and perceptibly productive of use¬
results is more interesting and in¬
than a mechftnieftlly per¬
formed series of gymnastics. But the
truth is more women need to be urged
to refrain from overwork than from
laziness.—Philadelphia Press.
FASHIONS IN SLEEVES.
There is not the least indication
that the huge sleeves of current
fashion will be renounced for seasons
to come. Beturned importers and
designers bring word direct from
Paris that sleeves there are larger if
possible than ever. If it is true that
we aro proverbially ono year behind
(he French in our fashions, then the
modiste is certainly safe in recom¬
mending to her patrons voluminous
sleeves. The mutton-leg, the draped
chatelaine, and the Queen Anno puffed
shaiie are in constant use. The fore¬
arm jiortions remain close-fitting, but
not tight, though they aro snugger
when tho turn back gauntlet is added,
this cuff appearing upon not a few of
the new “dress” gowns. The puff
above the elbow is cut in one piece,
and is sometimes pleated, sometimes
softly festooned, draped, or shirred to
tho outside of the arm, direotly
through tho centre, the shirring deli¬
cately done, and so left, or it is cov
ovad u-iFW n. rif.li o-alloon. insertion of
silk passementerie, or other sort of
trimming. Flounces falling above
the full sleeve-tops are still popular,
also long Vandyke points and rounded
or square Hungarian shoulder-caps.
On evening toilets aro pretty sleeves
showing a number of puffs placed
horizontally or perpendicularly, as
best suits tho shape of tho wearer’s
arm, aud straps of velvet, satin ribbon,
or pearled gimp are placed between
each puff.—New York Post.

Ribbons have come to stay for a
while, but laces will reeeivo their share
of patronage.
Blue and green and bluo and helio¬

binations just now.
Iu day dresses broad horizontal
ztripos aro being treated very success¬

The leg-o’-mutton sleeve is in for
another year. It comes wrinkled, like
the mousquetaire, to the elbow. It is
seen not only iu silk and 6tuff, but in
cloth bodices and coats of light ma¬
terial. It is not good judgment, how¬
ever, to put it in a bodice to be worn
under a coat, for reasons of grace and
comfort.
The new tones in brown for autumn
and early winter wear show a decided
tendency toward red inflections.
Burned flour, auburn, mahogany, rust

Bread by the Yard.
French bread is divided into twe
classes—pain ordinaire and pain riche,
writes Maria Parloa in an article on
i ( Outside Domestic Aids in Paris.”
Tho rich bread is made into all sorts
of shapes, and usually of small size.
All the French bread has a great deal
of crust and comparatively little
crumb. What is called pain Anglicise
is found at nearly all the bakeries.
This bread is baked in square loaves,
having a great deal of crumb in pro¬
portion to the crust. Small, round
loaves of rye and of graham bread can
bo purchased at nearly all the bake¬
ries. But the broad that is consumed
in the greatest quantity is the pain
ordinaire. This is baked in long,
round loaves, or in long, fiat ones.
The loaves vary in length from a yard
to a yard and a half. This bread is
sold by weight and costs about four
cents a pound.
Very little paper is used in the
bakeries. Men, women and children
come in and purchase the common
bread, take it in the soiled hands or
tuck it under the arm and walk oft.
The pain riche and small rolls are,
however, partially protected by a
small piece of paper. It is a common
thing to meet men in the street car¬
rying a bundle of the large loaves of
bread the same as they would so much
wood. When the baker delivers the
bread it is brought to you in a basket,
or wrapped in pajier. The bread that
is served with the chocolate or coffee
is generally in the form of a long roll
or a crescent.
The quality of the French bread is
generally good, but it varies at differ¬
ent establishments.—Ladies’ Home
Journal.
Immense Quantities Needed.
As eleven rears is said to be the life
of the average steel rail, the 10,000,•
000 tons nowin use in tho United
States must sooner or later make way
for others. These renewals involve an
annual replacement of not less than
1,727,272 tons. Recent railroad econo
nlies have compelled an abatement of
puichases, and renewals have only
been made where absolutely necessary.
This postponement, however, can reach
its danger line, and large contracts for
j new rails must soon be in order. There
j cau be no doubt that the steel rail in
j i dustry will have its share in the near
revival of business prosperity.—Lit

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
HOME-MADE PAINT FOR THE KITCHEN.
If your kitchen or any other floor
that you do not wish to carpet shows
unsightly cracks try the following
recipe for them: One pound of flour,
threo quarts of water and a teaspoon¬
ful of alum and make a paste of them,
cooking well together, After remov
ing it from the stove stir it into a lot
of paper that is torn in small pieces
and let It soak, stirring ns much as
you can. The paper should be stirred
until it is all in a pulp and the mass is
so thick that it is difficult to stir any
longer. Apply it to the cracks—be.
jure the floor is freshly cleaned first—
and force it in, smoothing it oft even
with the surface. Leave it to dry
thoroughly and you will iiud that it is
more lasting and a great deal cheaper
than putty. This can bo painted right
over as though it were wood.—Pitts¬
burg Dispatch.
The cake of fine china.
Every woman who owns beautiful
aud costly tableware knows with what
misgivings she sees it go down into
the kitchen to be chipped and marred
in the careless handling of servants.
Now, in some of the best regulated
homes of New Orleans, there is a
pretty custom hauded down from gen¬
eration to generation, and that is the
habit of washing the china by the mis¬
tress’ own hands, As soon as the meal
is over a little cedar tub is brought
into the diniug-room, and the lady of
the house dips the dainty cups and
saucers into the hot water with her
delicate fingers, carefully drying
them with a mean towel. It is a good

low, and will be appreciated by Dresden those

Mysteriously Flensed.
An artist who was sketching oil a
Japanese island found himself able to
perpetrate a mysterious joke in a very
simple manner. He was at work on
the beach, overlooked by a crowd of
villagers. He says:
I noticed then what extraordinary
effects colors produce on those whose
eyes are unaccustomed to them, A
man in tho crowd would get excited,
open his eyes wide and show his teeth
every time I happened to touch with
my brush the cobalt blue on my pal¬
ette, Other colors had not the same
effect. His eyes wete continually fixed
ou the blue, anxiously waiting for the
brush to dip into it, and this would
send him into fits of merriment.
I squeezed some blue paint from a
tube on tho palm of his hand, and he
nea rly went oft'his head with delight.
He jumped about and yelled and then
ran some distance and squatted on the
sand, still in admiration of the blue
daub on his hand, and still grinning at
intervals with irreplessible enjoyment.
Where the point of tho joke was no one
but himself ever knew. — Youth's Com
