Beauties of St. Bernard Pass.
The writer, in describing the perilous
Journey over the St. Bernard pass, in
part says:
“We see a little trickle of water start
from a snowbank and swell, fed by
dashing streams, great and small
Some of these fall from heights a mile
above us, tinkling and sparkling and
hiding here and there, but dually
reaching the valley. Pink crocuses
star the Helds, and barberry bushes, on
tire with berries, line the wayside. The
scenery grows richer: there are more
cultivated tlelds: houses begin to ap
pear on every ledge; now and then a
fine tower of some mediaeval castle
rose above the trees; then the silvery
gray olive, the fantastic vineyards;
the swarms of black eyed, dirty chil
dren begging; all tell of Italy. Under
a burning sun and covered with dust
we reach Aosta, tired and hungry, but
rieli in elevated thoughts, aspirations
and pleasant memories of our varied
and interesting experiences.”—National
Magazine.
Poetry, Pointing nnd Furniture.
Rossetti insisted on everybody paint
ing. Books, lie said, were “no use to a
painter except to prop up models upon
in difficult positions, and then they
might be very useful.” “If any man
has any poetry in him,” was another
saying of Rossetti’s, “lie should paint,
for it lias all been said and written,
and they have scarcely begun to paint
it,” a saying, by the way, which may
be found also in the third volume of
“Modern Painters.” Morris obeyed
the master and took to painting, liven
when Morris took to making furniture
that craft was at first regarded under
Rossetti’s influence as merely a means
of providing spaces for pictorial deco
ration. Morris built some enormous
chairs, “such as Barbarossa might
have sat in,” said Rossetti, who pro
ceeded to paint their backs with sub
jects from Morris’ poems.—Loudon
News.
What la n “Stlvlclt Mlnlatept”
Tito sense in which “stielcit” is ap
plied to Dominie Sampson, where he is
called In “Guy Manneriug,” chapter
3, a “stickit stibbler,” is entirely
distinct from that of sticking or stab
bing, with which it could never possi
bly be confounded by one familiar with
the Scottish tongue. A “stibbler” was
a harvester whose duty it was to keep
in tlto wake of the reapers (in the days
of the sickle) and cut or pluck and
gather from the stubble what one and
another had* left untouched. So a pro
bationer, or a preacher without a
charge, preached variously as he could
find opportunity, and if be never re
ceived a permanent appointment in the
church, but lapsed into the melancholy
monotony of a dominie’s tyranny, lie
was as one that had failed or stuck—
“a stickit stibbler” or “a stickit minis
ter.”—Notes and Queries.
Oldent Roue Tree In the World.
In the crypt of the cathedral of Hll
desheitn grows a wild rose tree, said to
be 1,000 years old, whereas it is the
root only, not the stem, which is eight
centuries old, according to accurate
Information derived from original doc
uments. A legend connects tills rose
tree with a vow made by the founder
of the cathedral, Ludwig the Plou3,
and a document of the eleventh centu
ry states that when Bishop Hczilo re
built the cathedral, which had been
burned down, he Inclosed the roots of
the rose tree within a vault which still
exists, raised upon this vault the crypt
and spread out the branches of the
rose tree upon the walls. The stem
was In 1819 20)4 feet high, and the
branches covered about. 32 feet of the
external crypt wall. Tills is said to be
the oldest rose tree In the world.

Ammonia as a Fire Extinguisher.
Probably the best Are extinguishing
liquid is aqua ammonia, without any
addition whatever. We have person
ally had experience with the almost
marvelous power of this substance in
this direction. In one instance, where
fire had originated probably from
spontaneous combustion, in a pile
containing several tons of cotton seed,
and the interior of which was almost
a solid body of live coal, a half gallon
of ammonia completely smothered the
fire.
In another, which occurred at Sa
venay, France, the vapors of a tank
containing 50 gallons of gasoline
caught fire in the linen room of a
laundry. The room was instantly a
mass ot living flames, but a gallon
and a half of ammonia water thrown
into it completely and almost imme
diately extinguished the fire. The
ammonia was in a glass demijohn in
an apothecary shop next door to the
laundry and was thrown into the room
by the druggist as an experiment. So
completely was the fire extinguished
that workmen were enabled to enter
the room almost immediately, where
' they found the iron tank of gasoline
[intact. —National Druggist.
WOMEN IN TROUBLE.
The Approach of Motherhood ia the
Occasion of Much Anxiety to All.
Every woman, dreads the ordeal
through which she must pass in becom
ing a mother. The pain nnd Buffering
which is in store for her is a source of
constant anxiety, fear and dread, to
say nothing of the danger which the
ooming incident entails. The joyous
anticipations with which she looks for
ward to baby’s coming gives way to nil
indescribable dread of the ordeal when
she fully realizes the critical nnd trying
event which will soon uppruach and
have to be endured.
Women should hail with delight a
remedy which insures to them im
munity from the pain, suffering and
danger incidental to child-bearing.
Such a remedy is now offered, and
women need not fear longer the hour of
childbirth. “Mother's Friend” —is a
scientific liniment —nnd if used before
confinement, gently nnd surely prepares
the Ixxly for the great requirements
and changes it is undergoing, insures
safety to Doth mother and child, and
takes iier through the event with com
parative ense and comfort. This won
derful remedy is prnised by every
woman wlio has used it.
What woman is not interested in
“Mother’s Friend?” This wonderful
remedy has been tested and its price
less value proven by the experience of
thousands of happy mothers who
have used it during the most critical
period of woman’s life —the approach
und culmination of motherhood.
It has won their everlasting praise,
for it gave them help and hope ill
their most trying hour and when
most needed. Every woman may some
day need “Mother’s Friend.” The
little book, “Before Baby is Born,”
telling all about it. nnd when it should
fie used, will prove of great interestand
benefit *o all expectant mothers, and
will be sent free to any address upon
application to the Bradneld liegulatoi

A l’retly Little Story.
The prettiest child story that I
have seen lately is in French.
A mother tells her little girl that
because she has been naughty she
will not kiss her for a week. Betore
two days have gone by the child's
lips hunger so for her mother’s kiss
that she begs her not to punish her
any more.
* The mother says: “No, my dear. 1
told you that I should not kiss you,
and I must keep my word.”
“But mamma, mamma,” says the
little girl, “would it be breaking your
word if you should kiss me just once
tonight when I’m asleep?”—Boston

“I came upon a couple of boys
fighting on the street the otherjday,”
said the portly man, as he laughed at
|
the recollection. “T hey were both
smeared over with eggs, and were
fighting like a couple of young wild
cats.
“Asa usual thing Ido not believe
in interfering with quarrels among
children, believing that it is better to
let them fight it out and settle their
differences in their own way.
“But they were fighting so fiercely
and were using such bad language
that I thought it best to separate
them.
‘•Getting hold of their collars I
pulled them apart and demanded an
explanation.
“ ‘He threw a rotten egg at me!'
shouted the younger of the two, as
he struggled to get at the other boy
again.
“This was undoubtedly a fact, as
the boy’s clothing was a strong testi
monial to the point in evidence.
“ ‘Tut, tut,’ said I, ‘you should
have returned good for evil.’
“‘I did,’ he sobbed, the reaction
having set in. ‘The one that I threw
at him was a good one.” ”
An Old Idea.
Every day strengthen* the belief of emi
nent physicians that impure blood is the
cause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-fire years sgo this theory was used
as a basis for the formula of Browns’ Iron

by this famous old household remedy are

YALE’S NEW PRESIDENT.
Popnlnr u an Kdncntor and nn Au
thority on Polltlcnl Economy.
Yale’s new president, Arthur Twin
ing Hadley, is distinctly a product of
Old Eli. His father was a Yale profes
sor, and be has been himself a student
and instructor there. He has been rear
ed in the very atmosphere of the uni
versity. Its traditions are a part of his
own existence. He is close to the stud
ents, sharing their ambitions and sym
pathizing with every phase of their life.
Professor Hadley represents the
younger element of the university. He
is 43 years old nnd was graduated from
Yale in 18T(1. Besides being a brilliant
educator, he is noted both as a political
economist and as an author.
For some years the president elect
has occupied the chair of political
economy at Yale, and his writings on
this subject have made for him a na
tional reputation. He came early to

fame. Before he was 80 be was sum
moned as a witness before the Cnllom
senate committee, which drufted the
interstate commerce lnw. His opinions
were considered weightier than those
of many great railroad men.
It was about this time that the pro
fessor published his now celebrated
work “Railway Transportation; Its
History and Its Laws." This useful
book has been generally translated.
Two Russian translations were made
nnder the direction of the minister of
finance for the czar. Of this Professor
Hadley hnmoronsly remarked;
“I am told that his majesty, after
finishing one chapter, felt that assas
sination had lost its terrors.”
His latest bock, brought out in 1897
and entitled “Economics; an Account
of the Relations Between Private Prop
erty and Public Welfare," embodies a
treatment of this vast subject from a
point of view that is original.
Professor Hadley is not personally
the dry boned man of science. He is
fond of clubs, plays tennis, in which
he has trained a few well known ex
perts and is now busy with “skat.’
He is fond of travel, having “(Tone’
Switzerland on foot and has visited
Europe frequently.
Sculpt nre.
If it wore to he considered which
branch of tl e fine arts is the most use
ful to man, It would probably be found
that he could most easily dispense with
sculpture and especially that, branch of
the art which portrays human and ani
mal figures. It Is not too much to say
that, saving perhaps a score of master
pieces, every human and equestrian
statue in tin' world might be destroyed
at a very small cost to the aesthetic
sentiments of humanity. Sculpture
lacks color, warmth and life. It Is a
luxury of the rich as far ns the adorn
ment of the home Is concerned, and Its
public examples rarely afford satisfac
tion) to any lint the amateur. It lias,
therefore, very little Interest for the
vast majority of mankind. The Idols
of Idolatrous peoples must he excepted,
hut here the Interest !s not artistic, hut
religious. In the extended sense of the
term sculpture could be less easily dis
pensed with, because It would mean
the abolition of all adornment In archi
tecture, and to a highly civilized people
this would he Intolerable.—Exchange.

The Old Crest Ksstern.
On May 1, 1854, Brunei and Scot-
Russel began the building of the Great
Eastern at Millwall, on the north side
of the Thames. This Immense ship will
always be talked about. She Is a part
of history, and, unlike the majority of
ships which are dead and gone, she be
longs to time.
Iler length between perpendiculars
was 080 feet and on the upper deck 602
feet. The breadth of the hull was 85
feet and from paddlehox to paddlehox
118 feet The depth of this great ship’s
hull was 00 feet; the weight of the Iron
contained in her hull, 8,000 tons, and
the weight of the whole ship when
fully laden, 25,000 tons. Thus loaded
she drew 30 feet of water. Further
statistics of her construction are curi
ous. Here was a ship held together by
no less than 3,000,000 rivets. The plates
which formed her were 30,000 in num
ber, and each plate weighed about a
third of a too. .. * ..
