<®luj Herald and ^ducrtisq. A New Cure for Malaria. “Malaria?” * “Yes, malaria.” “No, sir. I'm no more afraid of ma laria than I am of you,” and as the speaker was at least ton inches taller than the reporter and proportionately broader, his fear of that dread malady was proba bly not excessive. “I’ve had malaria and I’ve been cured.” ‘Yes, but a man can have malaria more than once.” “Not if he is cured the way I was. About ten years ago I was living in Indi ana, in Vigo county, near Terre Haute. In those days a man was regarded as a stranger until lie had drank alxiut a ' gallon of whisky and quinine and shaken down his bedstead three or four times with the ague. I had a rather reticent nature, and I suppose it took the climate longer to get acquainted with me than it did the ordinary run of men. For I had to drink about a barrel of whisky and take whole pounds of quinine before I could get strong enough to even shake myself, let alone a bed. Old citizens told me that I had the worst case of ‘fever ’n ague,’ as they called it, that the county had ever seen.” “How were you cured?” “I was just coming to that. I was living with the Dennis family, from the north of Ireland. Mrs. Dennis used to tell me she could stop my chills if I only would take her medicine. She never would tell me what her medicine was, but always said if I would let her lie the doctor slic would cure me. Finally, one day, I agreed. She waited till evening. Then she brought to my bed a towel. “ ‘Bind that around your head so you can’t see,’ said she. “ ‘What’s that for?’ said I. “ ‘Who’s the doctor, you or me?’ said she. “So I bound tho rag alxmfc my head. “ ‘Now,’ said she, ‘take this glass of water in your right hand, open your mouth, take your dose and a drink of water the second it is in your mouth. Be sure and swallow what I give you.’ “I promised., but there was something so ominous about her preparations that it was with no little apprehension that I opened my mouth, held my breath and braced up to tako my punishment. ’ ’ “Did it taste bad?” “It didn’t have any taste at all. It felt like a little ball of dust such as you find in the corner of the carpet. I washed it down several seconds quicker than instantly, you may be sure. Just as it was going down I felt a sharp pain in my throat as if it had scratched. “ ‘Is it down?’ asked Mrs. Dennis. “ ‘Yes,’ I said. “ ‘All down?’ “ ‘Yes, now tell me what I’ve taken.’ “ ‘I'll tell you to-morrow, and then you’ll have no more shakes. ’ “I slept soundly that night, but when I woke up in the morning my throat was swollen and very painful. About 10 o’clock Mrs. Dennis came to my room. She had a little pasteboard box in her hand. “ ‘There,’ said she, ‘look in there and sec what it is.’ “I looked. Then I felt the blood leave my heart. I turned cold and fainted. When I recovered Mrs. Dennis was standing by my side. “ ‘Did I take one of those?’ I asked. “ ‘You took tho mate of that one.’ “That was years ago, and I never had a chill after that day. My throat got well in time and so did I. I was effectu ally cured, but I wouldn’t take another (lose of that medicine to save my life.” “What was it you swallowed?” asked the reporter. “It was a. big, hairy black spider, and it was alive.”—New York Mail and Express. Brown Broad niul Miml Cure. The beneficial effect of the mind cure process is shown by the experience of a young man who had been “bucking the tiger” in Portland, Me., and had met with the usual run of bad luck. He started in with over $100. and at the close of his sitting he had but twenty-five cents remaining. This sum was not enough for a stake, and so the unfortunate player left the den in search of some other turn of luck. Not far from the gaining house he met an acquaintance who complained of a very troublesome disorder in his nervous system, and asked advice on the subject. The gamester thought it over, and finally made an agreement to meet his friend later, after which ho departed in search of food. Baked beans and brown bread made up his fare. While eating lie mechanically rolled some of the bread into a ball, then Ho proceeded A friend of mine went some time back to have a tooth stopped. The dentist advised him that he had better Jfhve the tooth taken out, and assured him that he would feel no pain if he took laughing gas. “But what is the effect of the gas?” asked my friend. “It simply makes you totally insensi- lias always the charm of j ble,” remarked the dentist; “you don t She is always smart, always ! know anything that takes place.” My friend submitted; but just pre vious to the gas being administered he put his hand in his pocket and pulled \J1 out his money. “Oh, don’t trouble " " 1 about that now,” said the dentist, thinking he was going to be paid his fee. “Not at all,” replied the patient; “I ! was simply going to see how much I French Women as Cooks. The French woman has a genius for cookery, and is thoroughly awake to the fact that it is good policy in married life to see that her husband dines well. The politics of matrimony is a science inborn in our women. Let a French woman be rich or poor—the mistress of a mansion in the Champs Elysees or of a poor fifth floor little flat at Montmartre or Batig nolles—she feminality. alert, and has a little fluttering, bustling way with- her that is bound to keep ! awake your interest in all she does. She may lie sometimes a little affected, but she is never vulgar. On Sundays and holidays she dresses still a little more ele- ! ganlly than usual, but she never appears ’ to lie in Sunday clothes. The middle class French woman is ladylike, not only I in her dress, but in her speech. You will j R. D. COLE MANUFACTURING CO.

I have often heard French women called frivolous. But this is the height of absurdity. If frivolity consists in trying to remain young and attractive as long as possible then the French bourgeois Salvation Oil, the greatest cure on earth for pain, has made a most bril liant debut.

If. again, frivolity consists in ! eH j. g u0f j the*greatest number. Price, king a home cheerful and gay and j 2; j cents. preventing a husband from being ab sorbed by the cares of business, then she is frivolous. If this woman were frivo lous how could you explain the adoration for the mother which, even to the lowest of the low, you find in French children? How could this be unless she were the example of all domestic virtues? If a Frenchman of 40 would hesitate to take an important step in life without first consulting bis mother, surely it must be that be recognizes in lier a wise guide. It would be no mere naivete on my part to dwell longer on the absurd charge of frivolity. Take now the shopkeeping classes. There you will see the wife the* active partner of her husband. Behold them lioth as the commercial traveler displays his goods on the counter. She is not a mere housekeeper, with or without wages; she is a partner, not merely a sleeping partner. This not only enables her, if she happens to become a widow, to cany on a business without her hus band, but to be independent and bring up her children. She has not, to obtain her living on her husband’s death, to become a working housekeeper or a nurse; she is the mistress of her own house as before, and now the Lead of the firm. You cannot obtain a perfect notion of French industry unless you pay a visit to our peasantry. I must say that now the woman ceases to lie attractive. She does not even attempt to look so. Sunburnt, hale and hearty, behold her, dear English tourist, that is the fortune of France. She does not wear fringes on her forehead, I will admit; she does not wear flounces on a second hand okirt, or a hat with flowers and feathers, and she totally ig nores one franc diamonds. She has a coarse serge gown on and simple snowy cap. She is clean and tidy and the per sonification of industry. I do not doubt, however, that, thanks to the blessings of gratuitous and compulsory education, tne time will soon come when she will want to imitate the ladies of the town in lier habits and dress, and that her sons will despise the dear land where they were born and will all want to be clerks and swagger in town with high stand up col lars. tight trousers and sticks. Thank goodness, this spectacle is not yet to be seen in France. This good, hard working, thrifty wom an is the backbone of the country. Tho amount of work she can get through is simply prodigious. You will always see her busy, either working in her field, selling the products of her little farm in the marketplace of the nearest town or engaged about her little household. She is not attractive, but site is the picture of health and contentment. Shares or bonds may go up or down without disturbing her peace; she holds none. She trusts Iter savings to nobody. Bankers, site thinks, company directors and stock brokers may be very respectable persons, but when the old stocking is swollen with five franc pieces site rounds off her little family domain and buys another field, something she is quite sure to find in its place when she wakes up hi the morn ing. Let me give you an example of her frugality, and allow me to take it from a personal recollection. My mother has a housemaid who has been with her twenty- five years. Not long ago, while in France, I took aside this old servant. “I know how devoted you have lteen to my mother.’’ I said to her. “You are not strong, and I dare say you will not wish to go into service again, but make your self easv about this. If anything should The truest end of a life is to know the life that never ends. A 'Woman’s Dress Ts an important matter as regards their health.
