The readers Os this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dread
disease that science has beeff able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the founda
tion of the disease, and giving'the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials,

THE EMPEROR WORSTED.
A Flacky UHI» Hunterian Olrl Oct Re

The present probably
not admit that he had often been
thwarted in any of his plana, but au
anecdote has recently become known
which shows that he at least once “got
the worst of it,” and it is all the more
piquant from the fact that he was de
feated by a girl.
When the kaiser, who was then
Prince Wilhelm, was about 10 years
old, he and Prince Heinrich spent some
time at Cassel with their tutors, who
sometimes allowed the little princes to
play with other children. One day when
several of them were gathered together
it chanced that a little French girl was
among the number, and the young Ger
mans conceived the brilliant idea of
making her a representative of the coun
try they all so cordially hated. The de
lightful plan was immediately put into
execution, and the poor child was tied
to a tree. Then began a fusillade of
pine cones, sticks, etc., and whenever
anything struck her there was a cry of
“Here’s for Sedan I” This went on for
a few minutes, when a little Hungarian
girl, Helena von D , who was watch-
ing, could bear the injustice no longer,
and, singling out Prince Wilhelm as
chief offender, she threw herself on
him. The attack being unexpected, be
was completely taken by surprise and
fell down, whereupon she began to
pound him, crying out at each blow,
“Here’s for SadowaF’
The prince was fast getting the worst
of it, for his little adversary was thor
oughly in earnest, when the imperial
tutors, hearing the noise, rushed tip and
separated the combatants. After that
the princes were more carefully watch
ed, and Wilhelm had no opportunity to
“get even” with the little champion of
justice. Some days afterward, hearing
that the princes were leaving, Helena
went down to the gate to see them go
by. As they passed Wilhelm spied his
foe, and leaning put behind his tutor he
stuck out his tongue.
Helena was the daughter of titled
parents, and later she was married to
an Englishman. When the kaiser was
in London, she told this story to one of
his gentlemen in waiting, who in turn
repeated it to his majesty. The latter
exclaimed: “Is that devil of a girl here
now? I would like to see her.” A meet
ing was arranged, but Helena became
ill, and so they never met after thatrono
encoflnter to make friends or renew hos
tilities.—New York Tribune.
A SAVAGE CRITICISM.
The Teachar’s Artistic Cleverness Re
ceived a Hard and Cruel Blow.
In one of the Cleveland public school
rooms of the primary grade the teacher
has been reading Longfellow’s “Hia
watha” to her pupils. Os course this is
a rather ambitious work, ft the little
ones, says The Plain Dealer, but they
enjoy it, and the rhythm seems particu
larly pleasing to them. When they come
to a hard word, the teacher goes to the
blackboard and draws a picture to illus
trate its meaning. This the pupils find
highly entertaining, and it helps in
quite a remarkable way to fix the text
in their minds.
A few days ago they came to this line
in the early part of the poem:
At the door on summer evenings eat the little
Hiawatha.
“At—th’ door on sum-mer eve-nings
sat th’ lit-tie”—read the children.
“Go on,” said the teacher.
But they couldn’t go on. The name
of Hiawatha was too much for them.
They knew who Hiawatha was, but
they didn’t recognize his name. So the
teacher went to the board and took con
siderable pains in drawing:
First.—A wigwam with poles stick
ing up above it, and a rude aboriginal
drawing above it, and a rude aboriginal
painting on the side.
Second. —Little Hiawatha, with feath
ers in his hair, squatted at the wigwam
door.
Third.—A fine harvest moon.
Then she pointed at Hiawatha and
asked what it was.
There was a general craning of necks
and shaking of heads.
* ‘ Come, come, ’ ’ said the teacher,
“you know what that is. ”
Then one little girl spoke up:
“I guess it’s a mud turtle.”
And instantly, with one accord, the
class glibly Repeated:
“At th’ door on sum-mer eve nings
sat th’ lit-tle mud-dy tur-tle.”
And the teacher feels that her artistic
cleverness received a hard and cruel
blow.
Stylish Evening Bodice.
The simplest and perhaps the most
fashionable bodice for evening wear,
says a New York fashion authority, is
the full blouse shape of chiffon, droop
ing Over a fitted silk lining, the top cut
out in square or rounding fashion, with
a full tulle ruche, a narrow band of
fur, a fall of laOe or beaded revers to
finish the edge. The sleeves consist of
short, full puffs similarly trimmed.
This is a basis for any kind of flower
trimming that taste suggests. Bows of
shaded pink roses devoid of foliage are
in great use on evening gowns this win
ter, as are maidenhair fern and lilac
sprays, laid upon strands of pink or or
ange satin ribbon not more than an inch
and a half wide.
In a Chicago Art Gallery.
“It seems to me the perspective in
this picture is faulty.”
' ‘ The—er—what?’ ’
“The perspective. ’’
“Oh, yes, that part of it is very ugly.
It’s laid on too thick, and you can buy
better frames than that one for $6 a
dozen.”—Chicago Tribune.
A Bad Bargain.
“Jane, did you break the china
plate?”
“Yes’m. You got fooled on that plate,
mum. It’s a weak un. It broke the
fourth time I dropped it”—Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
