IN BED THIRTY-NINE YEARS. A Healthy Woman’s Strange Resolution, , Made in 1838. “Thir. bed is the most comfortable place in the world,” remarked an Englishwoman in 1858. “I shall stay here the rest of my natural life.” The woman'who made this remark able statement was a spinster and she lived at Teignmouth, in Devon shire, England. She kept her word, and for nearly forty years she stayed in bed. She was thirty-eight years old when she made the assertion. She had retired to bed the night be fore in the best of health and there was no seeming reason why she should not have arisen the next morning. Bnt she concluded that she would re main where she was, and her relatives concluded that it would be best to humor her wlum. So she stayed in bed and her meals were taken to her. The bed she occupied was in a room upstairs, and for two years she stayed there. Then she was removed to a room on a lower floor, where she could watch the front door and the yard. She had a series of mirrors ar ranged so that she could see the en trance to the house and the entire yard, and she was thus able to know what was going on. Her hearing be came abnormally acute, and she could hear noises that were inaudible to other residents of the house. Her mother and father died and she still remained in bed. She becamo owner of the small estate, and sho managed it with skill and judgment, but she adhered to her determination of remaining in bed. She died last week at the age of seventy-seven. The doctors who held the autopsy said that her lungs and heart were sound, and that had she lived the usual life she would have been good for ten or fifteen years longer. She ate usual meals all of the forty years, took no medicine, and there was no apparent change in her constitution until a few months before her death.—New York World. Fish as Food. Fish is regarded by Sir Henry Thompson as in many cases a prefer able food to meat. In Food and Feed ing he thus expresses his views on the subject r “For the sedentary man, whatever liis calling in life, whose engagements permit only just that moderate amount of muscular exercise which is in all circumstances essential to health; for a great proportion of women whose habits mostly are not, and often cannot be active, the nutri tive elements afforded by fish admir ably supply an important part of the body's wants. The moderate amount of flesh-forming material present in fish, and in a form which entails little labor on the digestive organs (for most persons eat less fish than meat), and’the facility with which fish may be associated with other elements — some fatty matters, with cereals and vegetables, ns well as fruits—-place it in the first rank of foods in that mixed dietary which is so suitable to those who lead more or less the kind of life referred to. I by no means say that it should supersede the use of meat alto gether, although it may do sometimes with advantage—a point only to be dete>! mined in each individual instance after some observation and experi ment. For in all cases it is to be re membered that no man who has hab itually eaten meat two or three times daily can at once exchange it for fish and cereals or vegetables without some ■discomfort, to say the least. All radi cal changes in diet, even in the right direction, require to be gradually made. The stomach conforms slowly when long accustomed to deal with highly uitrogenized animal food, to the task of deriving from unaccus tomed materials the support neces sary to the body.” The Location. “Where was the prince wounded?” asked the friend of one of the seconds in n political duel. “Where was he wounded?” repeated the second absently, as be looked up from a mass of manuscript. “If lam not mistaken, it was about the begin ning of the last paragraph in the sec ond column.”—Washington Star. Do we Need Big Muscles? By iff means. Persons of herculean build fre quently possess a minimum of genuine vigor, and exhint less endurance than very small peoj'e. Real vigor means the ability to ditreat and sleep well, and to perform a reasonable amount of dally physical and mental labor without unnatural fatigue. It is because a course of llostotter’s Stomach Bitters enables tho enfeebled dyspeptic to resume the allotted activity of every day life, as well as to partici pate without discomfort in its enjoyments, that it is such a pre-eminently useful medicine. “I can’t part with that,” said the baid headed man as he put the comb back in his pocket.

Both men and women are apt to feel a little blue, when the gray hairs begin to show. It's a very natural feeling. In the normal condition of things gray hairs belong to advanced age. They have no business whitening the head of man or woman, who has not begun to go down the slope of life. Asa matter of fact, the hair turns gray regardless of age, or of life’s seasons ; sometimes it is whitened by sickness, but more often from lack of care. When the hair fades or turns gray there’s no need to resort to hair dyes. The normal color of the hair is restored and retained by the use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor.

Story of a Man Who Was Given I p to Die by Seven Physicians—He Fol lows tlie Atlvlofl of a Friend and Is Now a Well Man ** —A Wonderful Story. From the Leader, Morrisville, A. V. “Yonder Is a man,” said the farmer to a reporter, “who is the talk of this commu nity.” “He is Mr. William Woodman, of South Hamilton, Madison Cos., N. Y.,” a well-to do farmer, who is well known and stands high for honesty and thrift in this neigh borhood. On the following day the newspaper man called on Mr. Woodman in his comfortable, old-fasliloned farm house. “I have had serious thoughts of writing an account for the newspapers myself, *’ said Mr. Woodman, “but as I am not ac customed to such work', I have never at tempted it. Bit down and I will tell you all about it. “I am fifty-nine years old. I contracted rheumatism when only fourteen years of age, then a severe cold from over exertion and from becoming over heated. My father was a farmer and insisted that the only way to make me strong was to do plenty of hard work. When, however, he saw me helpless in bed for six loDg months without being able to move except with help, he changed his mind, and forever after believed that children should not be made to do men’s work. My growth was stopped by suffer ing, and I do not think I am an Inch taller than that day, forty-five years ago. Dur ing the forty years onsuing after my mis fortune, I was attended by seven doctors. I received temporary relief at times, from new forms of treatment, but always ’re lapsed into a worse and more aggravated condition. The conclusion of ail these gentlemen was that I was incurable, and ail they could do was to ease my condition. After I grew to manhood I married and have been blessed with a family. My dear wife has had all the drudgery of nursing and waiting upon me, and the burden has been indeed hard to bear. “Without hope from physicians I began to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, which was highly recommended by my friends. I took them and within one week began to feel better than I had since I was first afflicted. I took these pills according to directions, and when the box was nearly gone I went over to Brookfield to an old friend who was in the drug business, named Dr. Aure ! lius Fitch, who likewise was a great suffer er from rheumatism. The doctor and I or dered several boxes of Pink Pills in part nership, he from that time keeping them on sale. Well, I continued to take them according to directions for the next three years and steadily improved, gaining flesh and strength, until two years ago I was able to discontinue them, and now am as able bodied a man of my years as you will find. I ought to tell you that after I or dered the first box of pills the physician who was then attending me came in and I told him what I was doing. Ho said I was very foolish, that, they would surely injure me, and it was his duty to tell me so. I told the doctor that I might as well die as to drag out a miserable existence, and so, notwithstanding his warnings, continued to take tho pills. Thank God the doctor was not able to dissuade me, for to them I now ascribe nil the comfort and happiness I have in this world. I have recommended them to hundreds of people since I was cured, and in every case they have been effective, not only in rheumatism but in numerous other disorders, especially im poverishment of tho blood, heart trouble and kidnoy disease. “I certify the above statement to be true, and if necessary will swour to the same be fore a Notary Public.” William Woodman. When Mr. Woodman had signed and de livered the above paper to tho reporter, he said: “If I were you I would go and call on Mr. Amos Juquays, at Columbus Centre, to whom I recommended Dr. Williams’ rink Pills for aggravated kidnoy disease. He is now r in perfect health. I have no doubt he will bo glad to testify to the efficacy of the remedy that cured him.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Tills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They arc for sale by’ all druggists, or may be had by mail from Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y., for 50c. per box, or six boxes for $2.50. Reading as a Mental Stimulus. An eminent French critic said in a lecture recently in New York that “to distrust what we like is the first requisite of progress in art and in life.” He did not meal; that books that are disagreeable are the only books worth reading. But he dill mean that a book which opens up a new field of knowledge, anew outlook upon literature or life, is not at first likely to give the pleasure that comes from one which simply reflects the old familiar ideas of which we say complacently, “How good and true that is, for I’ve felt it or said it my self.” A book that pats you on the head or heart all the time is apt to be little more than a reflection of your own narrow experience, and yon will not learn anything from it. A book that makes one feel ignorant is as mortifying to one’s pride as a superior person.—“Droch” in Ladies’ Home Journal. "Bicycle Catarrh.” It would occasionally seem as il physicians devote much of their time to hunting up reasons why mankind should give up the wheel Long ago it was the bicycle hump, then the bi cycle face, these being followed by the bicycle voice and other equally serious troubles, all of which have been laughed to scorn by devotees oi the wheel. Now comes a medical per son of Philadelphia with the alarming information that bicycle catarrh i* among the perils that must be faced by those who ride wheels. Says tho Quakertown Galen: A Juvenile Philosopher. “Did you cry when your mother put the mustard plaster on you?” asked one small boy.” “Not a bit.” “How did you keep from it?” “I shut my eyes and made believe I was in swimming and had struck a sea-nettle. ” —Washington Star.

A stylish little frock for a girl cJ eight, writes May Manton.-is made of silk and wool novelty, showing a ground of deep blue lined with red. FROCK FOR A CUM, OF EIGHT YEARS. The plain or contrasting material is red taffeta and the buttons are smoked pearl. The foundation consists of well-fitted lining that is simply shaded by shoulder, under-arm seams and single bust-darts. The material is ap plied to the front at yoke depth, and the full front is gathered at upper and lower edges and adjusted over the lin ing to fall in soft blouse effect over the narrow belt. The side-fronts of nov elty show fulness at the upper and lower edges, and are also slightly blouse. The back fits smoothly across the shoulders with a scant fulness at MISSES’ FRENCH BLOUSE WAIST. the waist at each side of the centre back where the closing is effected with button and buttonholes. A wide sailor collar falls across the back, and is carried forward to the top of the yoke front. Bevers that are widest at the top and gradually taper toward the lower edge finish the front edges of the side-fronts, forming an effective decoration; a plain standing band finishes the neck. The sleeves are two-seamed, and fit the arm com fortably close from the wrist to above the elbow, where they are met by short puffs of the material. The skirt has a front gore, wide side gores and a straight back that is closely gathered at the upper edge and sewed to the belt, the pla’cket finishing in the cen tre-back. All seasonable fabrics are suitable, plaid, striped, figured and novelty goods combining prettily with plain materials, such as cashmere, challies, etc., or with silk. To make this frock for a girl of eight years will require three and one-half yards of forty-four-inch material and one and one-quarter yards of twenty two-inch material for trimming. Misses’ French Blouse Waist. The stylish waist shown in the large illustration, fashioned in figured barege, showing a full vest and back gimp of surah, is suitable for a young miss. Narrow black velvet ribbon provides the decoration, and a fine divided frill of lace finishes the neck. The foundation consists of a glove fitted lining, with the usual number of seams and single bust darts enter ing into the adjustment. It closes in visibly at the centre back. The be coming fullness of the vest or front is disposed in gathers at the neck edge and at the waist. The side fronts, which are included in the shoulder and under-arm seams, fit smoothly at the top, with the slight fullness at the waist laid in forward-turning plaits. Smooth under-arm gores separate the fronts from the backs, which are smooth at the top, where they are cut in low, rounding outlines, showing a gathered yoke of surah above. At each side of the closing the backs have a slight fuflness, arranged in close, overlapping plaits, The upper edges of the side fronts are also rounded, presenting the gimp effect that is a feature of the season’s style and be coming to all youthful figures. The neck is completed by a standing band, Burmdanted by full ruohe of lace. The two-seamed sleeves have short puffs and are finished at the wrists in Venetian” style.

The free edges may be trimmed with either rib bon, braid or passementerie. To make this dress for a miss of fourteen years will require two and one-quarter yards of forty-four-inch ma terial. Fashions in Holts. White leather belts with oxidized silver clasps are very popular with light summer frocks. Many of them are extravagant affairs, having, be sides the clasps, handsome silver orna ments applied at intervals. The latest belts mentioned from abroad are said to show tortoises of turquoise; these are formed with links of oxidized silver. Very narrow belts of light-lined croco dile leathers are adorned with studs of oolored enamels, but ribbons are used in preference to anything else by many, for they fit so much more snugly than leather and tie so gracefully. For the moment cheek ribbons are being ex tensively patronized. An Elaborate Bicycle Suit. There was recently placed with a fashionable New York tailor an order for a bicycle suit which in the matter of expense is likely to hold the record for some time. The girl who meets the bill is worth a million in her own right, is an athletic beauty and is a reigning belle in the ultra smart set. The suit which makes the bill is the most elabo rate ever designed in this country. It is lined with silk, finished with jewels and will cost a lump sum of $715.50. Two shawls at $75 apiece will be em ployed in making tho skirt and jacket, A Curious Toilet. A rather curious toilet was worn at a recent garden party in Paris by Princess Storbey, composed of three skirts one above the other; the first was rose-eolored silk chiffon, the second mauve chiffon and the third Mechlin lace; the shades'thus softened were ex quisitely beautiful, the bodice to match had an unlined yoke, embroidered with silver spangles, sash scarf of mauve chiffon falling on the skirt. A Four-Piece Skirt. Figured dimity, showing violet and white, was the material chosen for this stylish skirt, that is admirably adapted for present wear, as the back breadth is straight, making it easy to launder when fashioned in wash fabrics. The sides display a slight ripple effect on each side of the gored front, the straight back breadth falling in grace ful folds from gathers at the top. The placket finishes in centre-back and the top is completed with a narrow belt. The skirt is of moderate width, meas uring only about four yards at the foot. The mode is adapted to all sea sonable dress goods, including duck, pique, grass linen, madras, cheviot, lawn, gingham, and other cotton sum- FOUB-PIECE SKIRT. mer suitings. It can be decorated, as illustrated, with narrow lace-edged ruffles or bauds of ribbon. To make this skirt for a woman of medium size will require four and one lialf yards of forty ; four-inch material. L.ace Overdresses. .The fashion of wearing lace over dress or lace applique for trimmings is universal across the water. One ex tremely fetching gown is of black net with an applique of cream lace all over it; it is mounted on white glace silk to bring out a delightful sheen. A linen bodice has a bolero of cream lace.

His hind feet are shovels to dig the hole where he lives, and the beaver uses his broad, flat tail as the mason does his trowel, spattering and smoothing the mud with it as he builds the walls of his cabin, while his sharp, powerful teeth are his saws, with which he gnaws off large branches of trees to build his dams. There are several wooden railways in Canada and the United States. One of them is in the province of Quebec, and is thirty miles long. Tho rails are of maple, four by seven inches, and trains are run over them with re markable smoothness at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour. This road is used for the transportation of tim ber, and the rolling stock consists of one engine and thirty-five cars. Remarkable Magic Entertainment. At the brilliant private entertain ments not long ago given by M. Kadi quet, a French lover of the magic of science, the guests entered a room furnished with nothing more mys terious than a cloth-covered appar atus seemingly like a magic lantern, The room contained a chandelier of glass and flowers in glass and porce lain vases. The lights were extinguished as in an ordinary spiritual seance, when a crackling-sound was heard, a luminous hand moved slowly up and down above the audience, luminous violins danced about, a phosphorescent glow swung in the air like a pendulum, and a luminous bell rang. A mirror sud denly blazed up, the vases and the chandelier glowed and the whole room glowed with a phosphorescent light. As all became dark again, a phosphor escent decanter appeared suspended in the centre of the room, a pale blue tray came below it, a shining glass placed itself on the tray, a spoon and sugar basin followed, phosphorescent pieces of sugar moved singly from the basin and dropped into the glass, and the spoon stirred the sugar. This ap parition in turn disappeared. Next, a pale-greenish human form came out before a velvet curtain, then vanished in fragments, the bust disappearing first. Finally a luminous bouquet blossomed into view in the centre of the room labeled with the explanation “X-Rays.” The phenomena all de pended upon the properties of the Roentgen rays, which cause certain substances, like glass, and especially objects covered with barium plantino cyanide, to become luminous, while other objects, like the hand moving the decanter, remain invisible. —Tren- ton (N.

This clever wheelman chooses a ceiling seventy-five feet above the floor for a track and calmly drives his wheel about, now here, now there, like a human fly. This wonderful expert for a long time past has been noted as one of the most skillful trick bicycle riders. A huge disc, covered with rubber, or some similar substance, is affixed to the ceiling of the hall where he per forms. Set about half an inch apart along the circumference of both tires of his bicycle are what appear to be tiny cups of rtlbber. When the bicycle is placed in posi tion, with the w’heels on the lower sur face of the big disc and the saddle downward, the purpose of these little cups is evident. As each cup comes in contact with the rubber flooring of the disc the air is forced out of it and the suction which results holds the machine iu place and prevents it fall ing. Beeliivo in a Keyhole. Recently we tried to open our door with a nightkey but found it would not work. We have heard that this often happens. But such was uot the trouble this time. On taking the lock off we found the lock and keyhole filled with what we supposed was mud, but on accusing the children of having filled it with dirt, they said they had seen a bee go into the hole several times and on closer examination we found it to be wax deposited there by the bees, which had hardened and had to be scraped off with a kniferyAshta bula (Ohio) Seiffl• ' - A Lucky Klondike Woman. Luck, like lightning, strikes in curi ous places. It is so in the Klondike. Mrs. J. T. Willis was less than three months ago a poor washwoman, living in Dawson City.

In Honor of Betsy Ross, A memorial in honor of Betsy Ross, who made the first American (lag, has long been lacking, and the patriotic public will undoubtedly join heartily in the movement which is now inaugurated by the Patriotic Sons of America and the Junior Order United American Mechanics to erect such a memorial, patriots all over the country being requested to lend theii aid and support to the plan. This honor to the memory of the good dame Ross would be most appropriate, and Fairmount Park would be a fitting place in which to place the proposed memorial. As the kind of memorial has not yet been determined upon, a suggestion is not out of order. Why do not these patriotic societies raise a fund and purchase the house in which the first American flag was made and have it removed to some appropriate spot in the park? No more fitting honor could be paid the memory of Betsy Ross than the preservation of her old homestead for all future gen erations.
