THOSE VANISHED VIRTUES.
“Oh, women are not what they used to be,”
' Said my friend, the gramblesome man.
“The way they carry oil’s shocking to see—
At least it is. terribly shocking to me,
.
For I’m s< t dead against this new plan
Of letting them think that they must put in
their say,
And thinking that they can run things in their
way,
Expecting to rule when they ought to obey.
They think that. Deny’t if you can I
“No, women are not what they used to be,”
Continued the gnunblesome man.
“My, my, what’s become of all true modesty,
And meekness, those virtues expected to he
In woman since hist’ry began?
What are they?” He paused, and a small voice
put in,
“If woman has lost them, perhaps they have
been
Monopolized lately by man!”
—Johnstone Murray in Womankind.
A HOTEL ROMANCE.
Fannie Proctor was very popular in the
family hotel, and Will Branford, or Willie,
as many styled him, was envied.
It seemed almost certain that Willie
had captured the girl. Mrs. Williams and
Mrs. Colo thought so, and as they enjoyed
unlimited opportunities to observe what
was going on at the hotel tlioir joint opin¬
ion carried weight with it.
These estimable women wero childless
and burdened with leisure. It was but
natural that to relieve the tedium of hotel
life they should spend much of their time
in the first floor parlor discussing their
neighbors within the walls and gathering
information such as satisfies a motherly
or perhaps a sisterly curiosity. They knew
how to worm secrets out of the pleasant
blond who officiated ns clerk. Whatever
happened in the lobby and parlor came
under their placid observation. They had
an indirect way of asking questions, and
all information coming to either was
shared without reserve. Mrs. Wiliams
and Mrs. Cole could tell 'if any man in
the hotel was a tyrant over his wife. They
knew the past of the quiet woman who
had been divorced. They knew which of
the young men drank too much and camo
in late. They could retail the errors of
grammar and the social breaks of the
family which was new to the town.
To study their neighbors and rate them
was to Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Cole a
constant delight. But they gossiped ami¬
ably and forgave the wicked young men.
They were harmless withal, for their re¬
searches were prompted by nothing more
than a laudible desiro for more knowledge,
These two, putting this and that to¬
gether, viewing one circumstance in the
light of another and basing opinions upon
their own knowledge of how matrimony
is approached, concluded that Fannie
Proctor would become the wife of Willie
Branford,
Having settled comfortably into this be¬
lief, they were amazed to learn that Fan¬
nie had accepted A1 Maynard, a broad
shouldered, “nice” young man, whose
characteristics had been an apparent in¬
difference to the charms of the young
women, a passion for 15 ball pool and an
undying aversion to whist and round
dances.
' Albert Maynard, indeed! Had he ever
hovered around Fannie at any of the Sat¬
urday night dances in the main dining
room? Had ho sent flowers to her day
after day and smiled at her every time he
came into breakfast? Had he come out it)
evening dress and tagged after her when
she went into the parlor? Had Fannie
ever addressed him familiarly and sent
him on errands? Had they organized thea¬
ter parties and played duets on the piano?
, No, to every question.
A1 Maynard had not figured as a possi¬
ble candidate until the engagement was
announced. Mrs. Cole remembered that
Fannie had once spoken of Mr. Maynard
as ‘ a big thing who always looked at a
girl as if she amused him. ii Mrs. Wll
liams recalled the fact that sho had seen
them talking together a few times, but
Fannie didn't act toward him ns she did
toward Willie—not at all.
At the first opportunity they corralled
Fannie in the parlor. ‘Is it true? ’ asked
Mrs. Williams as she took hold of the hand
on which was the ring.
“Of course it’s true,"
“But wo always thought it would be
Willie. • t
“I’m afraid Willie did, too, but—
pshaw!” and Mrs. Cole spent two
Mrs. Williams
hours in analyzing that significant
“pshaw.”
It would appear that Bibbs was the only
one around the hotel who had grasped the
situation from the start. Bibbs was the
elevator boy—size, 12 years; suspected age,
16 years; self assertion, 75 yoars.
Tlio buttoned English uniform in which
they had dressed him could not hide his
largely American qualities. He was a
servant, but had no servile trait. With¬
out attempting to be presumptuous, hu
placed himself on terms of easy equality
with every one in the hotel. He was
abashed at nothing, pherly gentlemen,
dignified matrons, buds and beaux—it
made no difference to him. If he believed
that a young woman's gown was becom¬
ing, he told her frankly that sho was a
“peach” or “out of sight, ” and she be¬
lieved him. If the clerk had said the same
thing, there would have been a vacancy.
If the porter had said it, some one would
have sent for a policeman. He
Bibbs was a privileged character.
received more Christmas presents than
any one else in the hotel. If the manage¬
ment had removed him, there would have
been a protest from every guest.
Probably he had worked into the confi¬
dence of so many persons that they were
in his power.
It was nearly midnight on the second
day after the news of the engagement had
startled the hotel. Bibbs was seated out
side the open door of his elevator waiting
for the stragglers, and two of the “night
hawks” were “drawing him out”
“Did you know, Bibbs, that Mr. May¬
nard is going to marry the Proctor girl?”
asked one of them,
“Did I know it? I haven’t heard any¬
thing else since yesterday. You’ve got a
smart lot of people around this hotel. I’ve
been on to that for six weeks, and every¬
body else around here was picking Mr.
Branford. He wasn't in it at any stage of
the game. I remember the day Miss Proc¬
tor came hero with her father. I took
them up, and Mr. Maynard went up the
next trip. He says to me, ‘Who’s the new
girl?’ and I told him she had come to
Chicago to study music. He says to me,
‘She’s a dandy.’ That's the first time I
ever heard him say anything about a girl
in the house.
“Well, I s'pose it was a week after that
both of 'em got in the elevator together.
Mr. Maynard's a good looker, you know,
but shy of women. He took off his ha*
and kind o’ turned his back to her. I let
him off at the seeond, and I saw her look¬
ing at him, so I spoke up and says, That's
Mr. Maynard.’ She laughed and says to
me, Who’s Mr. Maynard?’ I told her he
was a good fellow, and then, just fora kid,
I told her what he had said about her.
She blushed and said,’The ideal’ You
know how they ran do it I ain’t been
running an elevator for two years for
nothing. If you want to stand in with
women, just tell ’em anything you hear
real nice about ’em—understand? It makes
’em awful mad, but they remember you at
Christinas.
“The very first, ball that Miss Proctor
went to sho made a big hit. That's the
night Mr. Branford got stuck. I could
see it. Ho marched her all around the lirst
floor here ami nearly talked an arm oft her.
We run the elevator late that night, and
when 1 took her up she asked mo if Mr.
Maynard over went to the Saturday night
dances. I told her no—that he didn’t cave
much for girls. As soon ns 1 got a chance
I told Mr. Maynard what she had asked
me, and he wouldn’t believe it at first, ft
was none of my business, of course, but
he’s a nice man ami ain’t stuck up over
his money, and he’s done me many a good
turn, and I thought I d put him onto this
girl asking about him. Mr. Branford’s
all right, too, but he makes me kind of
sick at times.
“The first, dance after I told Mr. May¬
nard ho came down looking out of sight in
his full dress suit and loafed around the
office like a chump, instead of going in
where she was. Purty soon she came oU5
with Mr. Branford and saw Mr. Maynard.
I guess she must have asked for an intro¬
duction. Anyway they went over, and
Mr. Branford gave her the knockdown to
Mr. Maynard. Mr. Maynard got as red as
a beet, and she had to do most of the talk¬
ing. I s’pose lie didn’t ask her to dance.
Anyway some one else came after her, and
he went into tho billiard room.
“That was about the time that Willie
(that's what she called him when she was
with the girls) began to make a hard play.
I guess she had lots of fun with him and
was ready enough to wear flowers if lie
wanted to send ’em but I know all tho
time that sho wasn’t stuck on him. When
she’d leave him and get on the elevator,
he'd grin at her and say in that soft way
ho has, ‘Goodbyi’ and slic’d say ’Goodby!’
but as soon as wo got past tho first floor
she’d laugh out loud, and I’d have to laugh
too. Sho knew all tho time that I was on.
“Mr. Maynard met her once in awhile
in the elevator, and she acted different
with him. ’ I ain’t keen, but I think
very
I could liavtfcaught on quicker than ho
did that sho liked him, but didn't want
to tell him so in just so many words. Ho
didn't really act like a sucker. He’s boon
around too much for that. But sho d
throw out little hints, and he didn't seem
to understand what she meant.
“That man didn't know how strong ho
was with the girl. Sho could see that ho
was all right if he’d only got his norve.
About two weeks ago I says to him ono
day, ‘Mr. Branford's rushing Miss Proctor
pretty hard,’ He says, Yes, I s'pose they
are engaged.’ ’Rats!’I says. ‘She don’t
Care for him,’ Well,’ he says, ‘sho’s
wearing his flowers all tho time.’ I told
him that was beenuso no ono else sent her
any. Next evening she came to me and
said if I saw Mr. Maynard to toll him that
sho wanted to seo him. 1 took him up in
a little while, and sho mot him in tho hall
wearing a big bunch of roses, and I saw
her take one and pin it on his coat. That's
something she’d never done for Willie,
“Mr. Maynard was jollied up that oven
ing, but the next evening ho came in
from the billiard room and found Miss
Proctor and Willio promenading around
here, and I could see in a minute he was
sore. Then ho done something that para¬
lyzed me. Ho walked over to a sofa and
began to talk with that Miss Morrison
that wears tho glassos. I guess sho was
surprised, tco, but she was tickled all
right. I'm hero to tell you there ain’t a
woman in this hotel that wouldn’t havo
been ticklod. I could seo Mr. Maynard
look at Miss Proctor when she went by,
and then she’d look at him. Willio and
Miss .Morrison didn’t cut any figure at all.
They thought they did, but they didn’t.
“Now, tho rest of this is on tho q. t.,
and Mr. Maynard would kill mo if he
thought I told any one. That same night
when he went up I says,‘Mr. Maynard,
excuse me for saying it, but Miss Proc¬
tor's stuck on you. ’ Ho looked foolish and
says, Who told you that?’ I said I'd had
my eyes open, and that she went around
with Mr. Branford because she fcuidn’t
get away from him. Next night ho faked
up and went to call on her, and that’s
how ho got her before he bad taken iier to
a show or a danco or anything. Did you
hear about Mr. Branford giving up his
room?”—Chicago Record,
The Market dace.
There is no doubt that the protection
which used to be accorded to the market
place from the earliest barbarian times ha.1
played an important though notan exclu¬
sive part in the emancipation of tiio me¬
diaeval city. The early barbarians knew
no trade within their village communities,
They traded with strangers only, at cer¬
tain definite spots, on certain determined
days, and in order that the stranger might
pome to the barter place without risk of
neing slain for some feud which might bo
running between two kins the market was
always jjlaced under the special protection
of all kins. It was inviolable, like the
place of worship under the shadow oi
which it was held.
With the Kabylft it is still annaya, like
the footpath along which women carry
water from the well. Neither must be trod¬
den upon in arms, even during intertribal
wars. In mediasval times tho market uni¬
versally enjoyed the game protection. No
feud could ho prosecuted on the place
whereto people come to trade, nor within
a certain radius from it, and if a quarrel
arose in the motley crowd of buyers and
sellers it bad to be brought before tboso
under whose protection the market stood
—the community’s tribunal, or the
bishop's, the lord’s or the king’s judge.
A stranger who camo to trade was a
guest, and he went on under this very
name. Even the lord who had no scruples
about robbing a merchant on the high
road respected the welchbild—that is, the
pole which stood in the market place and
bore either the king's arms, or a glove, or
tbe image of the local saint, or simply a
cross, according to whether the
was under the protection of the king, the
lord, tho local church or the folkmote—
the vyeche.—Nineteenth Century.
Unreliable Weight.
Until he spoke there was audible no
•ound save the hum of trade in the street
below, the remarks of two men who were
trying to deliver a piano at the next fiat
but one and the ioud ticking of the clock
on the mantel.
“I have weighed my words carefully,”
he said.
The girl whom he had formally desig¬
nated as positively the first that he had
ever loved laughed him to scorn.
“If you were not,” she rejoined, “a coal
man”—

j 1 IRISH POTATO GROWING.
i What Can Be Realized by Planting Then!
j on an Acre of Land.
Jeff We!born has the follow .ng on
Irish potai os:
I have found out that I can grow as
much feed upon an acre of early peas as
I can of corn or oats, aud harvest tha
crop in time for a fall crop of Irish po¬
tatoes, aud that the laud will be iu the
finest condition for the potato crop
when the peas are taVen off (also two
crops of potatoes and one of peas on the
same laud.) I have also solved the
problem of growing in field culture, a
much superior potato for the table or
seed tor spring garden to any that can
j he brought from the north, and this at
j nominal cost and moro certain (if prop
• er ly managed) than a cotton crop. My
last , cro P’ whlch ... was the , el . S th , cro P 111
feur years, without change of seed, was
finer than any previous crop, both iu
quality and quantity, yielding at the
rate of 100 bushels per acre, without
manure or fertilizer of any kind, on
common hill land, that would not make
over 1,000 pounds of seed cotton per
acre.
Now that we can grow them much
cheaper than they can be grown in the
north and of much better quality, and
the demand at our doors. Why not ?
We do not need the immense frost
proof bins. In fact, in the south the
fall crop is very little trouble. They
do not sweat and rot like the yam.
They will keep perfectly in a room
where the thermometer does not run
belotv SO degrees above zero.
Anything that grows in the fall is
superior to the spring grown. The fall
Irish pototoes is as far superior to spring
grown potatoes as fall turnips are supe¬
rior to spring turnips.
Our potatoes havo increased in size,
quality and quantity per acre each sea¬
son since we commenced planting them
here. Seed from the fall crop planted
next spring will come on much earlier
than the earliest and most northern
grown. While there will not be so
many in numbers in the vine they will
be twice as large and far superior every
way.
The seed once obtained need never
be renewed, for the fall growing im¬
proves them continually.
The peas mentioned are the early
maturing variety planted after the
spring crop of Irish potatoes and taken
off in time for the fall crop.
To those who wish to adopt the val¬
uable suggestions of Mr. Welborn, we
give the following concise advice by
Mr. Massey, of the North Carolina sta¬
tion, which has frequ ‘utly appeared in
more elaborate form iu theso reports:
1. Bed the seed in soil until planting
time. This gets rid of those too imma¬
ture to grow and which if planted
would leave gaps in the rows.
3. Plant about second week in Au¬
gust, if possible, and use only those po¬
tatoes that are sprouted.
8. Plant in a deep furrow, but cover
very lightly and pack the soil to the
seed.
4. Never cut the potatoes for the late
crop.
5. Gradually fill in the soil to the
plants as they grow and cultivate tho
crop perfectly flat.

Dr. Salmon Tolls of This Fatal Disease
Among the Hogs.
Dr. Salmon, the chief of the bureau
of animal industry, has just issued a
bulletin on this subject which ought to
be in the hands of every hog keepor,
and can be obtained on application to
the department of agriculture, Wash¬
ington, D. C. Dr. Salmon says that
whilst no absolutely certain cure can
bo found for any disease, and certainly
not for hog cholera, yet that, as the re¬
sult of a long series of experiments, the
following has bean found to bo a most
efficacious formula in most cases of this
disease, and is valuable as a preventive:
lbs.
Wood charcoal.. , 1
Sulphur......... .
Sodium chloride. .. 2
Sodium bicarbonate . 2
Sodium hyposulphite .2
Sodium sulphate..... 1
Antimony sulphide 1
Pulverize and thoroughly mix and
give a large tablespoonful for each 200
pounds weight of hogs once a day. Feed
on soft food, made of bran andshipstuff
or bran and corn meal mixed in hot
water and stir in the proper quantity qf
the medicine. Animals too sick to eat
should be drenched with the medicine
mixed in water. In drenching a hog,
never throw him on his back or ropo
hjm an(i forc him to ta k e the medi
v 111 are that if ' do
-
you will . choke , him. Puil out the side
0 f his cheek from his teeth aud thus
make a pouch into which pour the med
icine, and it will run into his mouth
and be swallowed, or take an old shoe
and cut off a small part of the toe, so
ag to make a hole through, and put this
in his mouth. He will generally eoin
mence to chew the shoe —then pour the i
medicine into the shoe and it will find
its way slowly into the mouth and be j
swallowed. We have drenched hogs fu
this way when we could succeed in no
other way. Keep the sick hogs dry,
warm and clean, or it is very little use
. medicine. .
