A Startled Mother. From the Freeport (III.) Bulletin. While busy at work ia her home, Mrs. William Shay, corner of Taylor and Han¬ cock Avenues, Freeport, Ill., was startled by hearing a noise just behind her. q«mkly Turning s he 1 A* 3* 8 a w creeping toward her her four-year , o , d daugbt er, B8fttrice> ohild m0 ved over the floo r„ i, with an effort,. t but seemed n flll0dwith joy at fludiipg her l mother. The reBt 0 f the happening is Mrs. Shay Was Startled. t 0 id in , the mother’s own words. She said: ‘‘On the 23th of Sept., 1836, while in the bloom of health, Beatrice was suddenly and severely afflicted with spinal before, .menin- in gitis. Strong and vigorous five weeks she became feeble knd suffered from - which twisted her head a pR ra i ytio stroke t>ack to the side and made it impossible for her to move a limb. Her speech, how ever, was not affected. We called in our family doctor, one of the most experienced aIu t successful practitioners in the city. H0 considered the ease a very grave one. Before long little Beatrice was compelled to wear a plaster paris jacket. Prominent physioiahs were consulted, electric bat teries were applied, but no benefit was no ticed until we tried Dr. Williams’ Pink Pilis. “Busy in my kitchen one afternoon I was startled by the cry of ‘Mamma’ from little Beatrice who was creeping towards me. I pi ace( j ^ er on ^ improvised bed in the parlor comfortably close to the fireside back’and made up her mind to go to me, so her story, ‘My Pink Pills made mo walk,’ which she tells everyone who comes to our house, was then for the first time verified. She has walked ever since. She has now taken about nine boxes ot the pills and her pale and pinched limbs face gained has been growihg’rosy, and her strength day by day. She sleeps all night long now, while before taking the pills she could rest but a few hours at a time.” Dr, Williams’ Tink Pills for Pale People are sold by all druggists. Cervera’s Yankee Love Affair, The interest that Admiral Cervera took to effect the exchange of Junior Lieut. Hobson, United States Navy, who was taken prisoner after sinking the Merrimac, recalls the time when, as a Lieutenant-Commander, Cervera was naval attache at the Spanish Le¬ gation, in Washington, nearly twenty five years ago. The young officer owed his position to the fact that he was the nephew of the famous Admiral Topete, the most distinguished naval officer Spain) has had in the last half century. His father was the richest wine merchant in Spain. For 200 years the house of Cervera has existed as wine dealers itt Jerez, handling. . all the sherry which comes from that district alone.Cervera was a handsome fellow then. He was rich, a bachelor, and his dinners ;were among the finest given; by diplomats, during General Grant’s last term, i Cer¬ vera had a love affair that was much talked of at the time. He became des¬ perately enamored of a charming young lady, the only chnu of one of the proudest ami haughtiest men who ever sat in the Senate of the Ufiited‘States. She was not only a Senator’s daughter, but as cold and as proud as was her stately, aristocratic sire. Whether she smiled or frowned ppon her pictur ..esaiie, iiandscme Spanish lover cannot now be told. In those' days Cervera played the guitar with the grace of his raci, aud possessed an admirable light tenor voice. At an evening reception given by Mrs. Fish, wife cf iho Secretary of State, Cervera was asked to sing. Ho cdniplieVl by fisifig the attention, of every one near upon his inamorata, as, gazing at her in the most fervid man¬ ner, he made her a deep bow and burst into the passionate measures Of the - most sensational of Spanish love songs. This was too much for the girt, and she quietly got out of the room and left the ' house.

We find the first recorded postal sys¬ tem la the Persian Empire, under Cy¬ rus the Elder; hut it is clear that Rome of all the ancient States possessed the best organized system of transmitting letters through its numerous provinces. All along the great Roman roads houses were erected at a distance of five or six miles from each other. At each of these stations forty horses were constantly kept, and by the help of the relays it was easy to travel 100 miles in a day. These services were intended for the State only, it being imperative to secure the rapid inter¬ change of official communications. In the time of Julius Caesar the sys¬ tem was so well organized that of two letters the great soldier wrote from Britain to Cicero at Rome, the one reached its destination in twenty-six and the other in twenty-eight days. Private citizens had to trust to the services of slaves, and it .s not till the end of the third century that we hear of the establishment of a postal sys¬ tem for private persons by the Emper¬ or Diocvlefian, but how long this sys¬ tem remained history does not say.— New York World. Spanish Honor Exemplified. I see that the Spaniards are vaunting their honor and chivalry and calling Americans swine. Let me tell you something about Spanish honor. Pre¬ mier Sagasta recently gave a reception to the British Minister. During the evening the Minister discovered that his watch had been stolen, and he came to the reluctant conclusion that one of the grandees present was the thief. He told Sagasta of his loss. Sagasta ask¬ ed for silence and explained the situa¬ tion. He said that in order to save the culprit’s honor the lights would be put out and the whole company would pass by the Premier’s desk in the dark, and the culprit would redeem himself by placing the watch on the table. In darkness the company passed by the table. When the lights were turned on again not only was the watch not there, but a valuable silver inkstand belonging to Sagasta was missing.— San Francisco Chronicle. t Don’t Tobacco Spit and Smoke Tour life Away.
