STTNDAY MORNING.
THE WORLD’S GREATEST
WOMAN PHILANTHROPIST
Remarkable Benefactions of the Baroness Burdctt.Coutts.
* IXTY-FIYE years devot
*' * * cd untiringly to tile dis
i;* O tributiou of a vast l'or
<=* ... tune for .the heitelit of
* '—' *' the poor—that is the re
*'* * markable record of An
* * -:*• * x gel a Georgina, Baroness
Burdett-Coutts, the greatest woman
philanthropist in English history, if
not in the history of the world.
Tlie Baroness, who was born April
2T>, ISI4, is thus in her eighty-ninth
year. She commenced her active phil
anthropic work when she was Inn
twenty-three years old.
She was a daughter of Sir Frauds
Burdett, one of the chief Liberal poli
ticians of a century ago. Her inherit
ance of nearly $10,000,000 was be
queathed to her by her step-grand
mother, the wife cf Mr. Coutts, the
banker.
When the young woman by this lie
quest became the head of a banking
house second only to the Bank of
England she took the name of Coutts.
Queen Victoria conferred peerage on
her in 1871.
Including as it does many of the
most crucial periods in English history
the long life of the Baroness affords a
remarkable review of events and
changing conditions, ller munificent
benevolence set the pace for the rich
of all England, and the results have
been immeasurable.
One of this remarkable woman's
most active lieutenants and quite ber
most important adviser, was no less
a personage than Charles Dickens.
The great novelist was familiar with
every phase of life in London's squalid
East End, and together the two visited
the wretched dens and planned loving
ly wholesale reforms.
One of the first things accomplished
was to demolish a low den for thieves
and murderers in Betlinol Green and
erect in its stead blocks of model dwell
ings—the Baroness was really the pio
neer of model dwellings in London—
with every accommodation in the
shape of laundry, baths, etc., and a
good library and reading room.
All this was for people who had been
surrounded by abominations of every
sort; whose every breath had sucked
in foul stench, and whose every foot
step had been in slimy pools and de
caying refuse shot from dust carts—
truly a trap for fevers and loathesome
diseases. These buildings were erected
some half a century ago, and they still
hold their own and are indeed in ad
vance of some cf later date for drain-
age, ventilation and light.
Forty odd years since a treaty "was
made with France on the basis of reci
procity, under which large quantities
of French silks were imported, to the
practical abolition of the Fast End
hand loom industry. The weavers
were absolutely starving for want of
work, when Lady Burdett-Coutts came
'forward as the principal supporter of
an association which had been formed
for the relief of the sufferers. Some of
them were started in small business,
younger ones were trained for useful
employments, and a sewing school was
also opened, at which women of all
ages were received, the workers being
provided with a good meal at the out
set of each day's work.
Here a large number of persons were
employed at plain needlework, their
earnings ranging from eight shillings
to fifteen shillings per week—a very
substantial addition to the scanty in
come of these families, for many of the
men had only the casual work which
this bounty provided for them.
The lads were specially looked after,
many of them going to sea, and there
was, in fact, a complete system of
carefully devised help for young and
old, even to the engagement of profes
sional nurses for the sick, and substan
tial money aid that the homes of the
people might be kept intact. Also a
considerable number were sent out to
Australia as emigrants, the Baroness
not only defraying the cost of their
passage, bnt also advancing sufficient
money to keep them in comfort until
they had made a good start in the new
world. It Is good to record that this
trust in the people was not abused,
the whole of the money advanced being
subsequently repaid by instalments.
When the bitter winter of 1861 over
took The tanners of Bermondsey, and
they could not follow their occupation,
they were also helped in a substantial
manner. The magistrates of the police
courts of the neighborhood were inun
dated with applications for relief, and
the Baaoness had her own agents at
these courts, who inquired into the
cases and promptly relieved them.
Many will remember the cholera epi
demic which raged among the poor
of the East End of London between
thirty and forty years ago. The pa .
the Baroness played in relieving the
sufferings of the victims is beyond all
compute. In addition to paying the
Salaries of a qualified medical man,
peight trained nurses, two sanitary in
spectors and four men to distribute
disinfectants, her gifts of food and
clothing were on a most lavish scale.
Take one week's gifts at random, and
this is the wonderful total: One thou
sand eight hundred and fifty shilling
tickets for meat, 250 pounds of arrow
root, 500 pounds each of sago and tap
ioca, thirty pounds of black currant
jelly, fifty gallons of port wine, twen
ty-fire gallons of brandy, twenty gal
lons of beef .tea, 500 quarts of milk.
100 blankets, 400 yards of flannel and
400 assorted garments. At the same
time vast quantities of bedding were
sold at cost price to the people, and
many new appliance? and remedies'
were tested >in a practical manner.
There is not a costermonger living
in London who has not the greatest
veneration for her who is known as
“The Baroness.” Slip has been their
best friend for many years, has fought
their battles when Bumbledon in its
newest form threatened their partial
extinction, and they are not likely to
forget that as a body they owe their
continuance of favored positions and
many other benefits to her ready liber
ality.—New York World.
BRAZILIAN AVOCADOS.
Increasing Popularity of the Atligatoi
Pear.
The increasing popularity of the avo
cado, or alligator pear, has brought the
Brazilian variety into great prominence
of late. Asa matter of fact, the fruit
is not a pear at all, but belongs to the
laurel family. The chief authority on
the subject is a picturesque West In
dian, who imports these exotic dainties,
and who is an enthusiast on the sub
ject.
"The avocado.” he said, “is food and
medicine, as well as refreshment.
When nature made it, she intended it
as the highest development of the vege
table world. It is delicious, but not
cloying. It has its own characteristics,
but will gratefully accept ail other
flavors. For this reason it is the only
fruit, which can be eaten plalu. with
pepper and salt, with lemon juice and
sugar, or with a salad dressing.
New Englanders have made it
into a successful pie. which,
to be candid, 1 do not recom
mend, because 1 think pies are bar
barous; and Brazilian cooks convert
it into a marvelous custard pudding.
The peculiarity of the pulp is that it
contains a large amount of fixed oil,
which gives if a nutritive value supe
rior to the olive and the peanut and
makes it almost equal to the egg.
“Though a stranger in New York, it
is known and loved in every tropical
and sub-tropical city. It is grown iu
the West Indies, Central and South
America, Hawaii, the Far East, North
ern, Eastern and Western Africa.
Bouie enterprising Frenchmen have a
small orchard not far from Palm Beach
on the Florida Coast, and in Southern
California there are hundreds of trees
now bearing. The finest variety is not
the Mexican or the Venezuelan, or
even the Chinese,' as is claimed by trav
elers, but the Brazilian, and of these
the very host come from the Island of
Marajo, at the mouth of the. Amazon,
just opposite to Para. The fruit is of
a lustrous, almost vitreous green. The
skin is very tough, rather than hard,
so mucji so that it should be cut with
a hard steel knife.”—Now York Post.
llatilt of Inanity.
A student of child life and develop
ment devotes a portion of
a volume embodying the result of his
investigations to the subject of ques
tion answering. He does not advocate
the encouragement of silly and inane
questioning, in which children some
times persist. But this he says results
from lack of proper mental occupation,
and the child’s mind should be at once
directed to something interesting or
puzzling, as there is sneii a thing as
forming a “habit of inanity.” But any
reasonable desire for information
which shows itself in the thousand and
one questions asked by the normal
child from dav,n to dark it is criminal
to disappoint. It, would be less unkind
to refuse bread and water. Perhaps
it is wearying to go patiently over fa
miliar ground—the a1) c’s of life, not
once only, but again and again, but the
parent who is too indolent or selfish
to do this iA in reality starving his
child, and no later acquisitions ever
quite make up in the mental develop
ment what was denied it in its early
expanding years; just as lack of phy
sical food when the new bones and tis
sue most need it will result in a stunt
ed body which no amount of later
feeding will ever bring up to normal
size.
The Law Business.
Overcrowding is the motto of the
day. The factories are overcrowded.
The theatres are overcrowded. The
only reason why oue does not say that
the street cars are overcrowded, is that
they are something worse. All such
overcrowdings, however, are sparse
ness and loneliness compared with
the overcrowding of the bar. In 3891
there were fifty-eight law schools with
6073 stSbents. Now, according to an
estimate made by I’rofessor- Huffcutt,
of Cornell, there are 120 schools with
14,000 students. Meanwhile the num
ber of full fledged lawyers in the
United States is said by.the last census
to be about 114,000. No other profes
sion, with the exception of teaching
and of medicine, is so populous.—Chi
cago Tribune.
Doctor With 1000 Patient*.
At an inquest held on an old man
who was found dead in bed at the Ren
frew road workhouse, Lambeth, the
medical evidence showed that the man
had died some seven or eight hours be
fore being discovered. Dr. Easton said
there were 1500 inmates, and he was
the only medical officer. The night
nurses, each of whom had 300 persons
under their care, went through the
wards once every two hours. The Cor
oner said; “I cannot see bow one med
ical officer can examine such a large
number of inmates. There seems to
me to be a false sense of security.”
The jury expressed the hope that the
press would make ‘‘this disgraceful
state of things known.”—London Mail.
ACCIDENTAL INJURIES.
Mishaps From Which Little Children
Are Wont to Suffer.
Aside from the defects which are
born with the child, by far the great
est number are the result of accidents
and Injuries. Owing to the softness
and elasticity of the child’s frame he
escapes much that would prove seri
ous to adults. Yet the greater part of
the serious afflictions of childhood,
aside from the contagious fevers, are
the outcome of injuries to the bones
and joints. In children’s wards in the
hospitals the majority of the little pa
tients are suffering from the dis
eases which make deformities. These
are the different inflammations of the
spinal column, which cause the vari
ous curvitatures of the spine; the in
flammatory conditions that, occur
ring in the hip, give Vise to hip joint
disease, and the malformations which
occur in the foot, giving rise to the
shortening of a leg, causing the child
to limp. Many of these conditions are
due to an accident, such as a fail or
a bruise; some are present from birth.
A child's frame is much like that of
the young tree or sapling. It can bo
trained and shaped while young and
pliable, but after it is full grown this
is not possible. Parents should use
every means In their power to relieve
and overcome the deformities which
will be such a burden to their children
all their lives. Mothers should con
stantly Inspect their children to dis
cover any of these troubles which re
sult so disastrously. Whan the child
is undressed, make it bond over so as
to curve the spine, which makes the
little projections of each vertebra
stand out in relief. See that they
make no deviations toward one side or
the other. See that the shoulder blades
are in a like position and not project
ing too much. Look also at the ribs,
especially where they are attached
In front.
It is well to have the seemingly
healthy children gene over by the
family physician once In awhile to see
that growth is progressing as it
Ehould. If the spinal curvatures and
the hip joint troubles are discovered
early great suffering and the attend
ant deformity can be avoided. These
diseases, which cause the greatest
part of the deformity of childhood,
are insidious in their approach and
are often not detected until their
ravages have progressed to such a
degree that their remedy is difficult,
even if possible.—Philadelphia In
quirer.

GOVERNOR OF OREGON
m
CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, OREGON.
A Letter From the Executive Office of Oregon.
Pe-ru-na ! known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation ami
commendation testifying to the merits of
Pd-ru-na as a catarrh remedy are pouring
in from every .State in the Union. Dr.
Hartman • receiving hundreds of such let
ters duiiy. All classes write these letters,
from tHo highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan,
the clerk, the editor, the statesman, tlie
preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-na is the ca
tarrh remedy of the age. The stage and
rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their great
est enemy, are especially enthusiastic in
their praise ami testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health must
lie entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is
well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent.
Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of ca
tarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is
to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru
na not only cures catarrh, but prevents.
Every household should be supplied with
this great remedy for coughs, colds and so
forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent ad
mirer of Peru na. He keeps it continually
Alligator Extinct in the South.
The alligator is nald to be praeti
rally extinct, in the South. To Dame
Fashion may be attributed his passing
away. The demand for shoes, satchels
and pocketboolcs of alligator skin has
been such within the last ten years
that we will probably soon be com
pelled to visit our museums and zoos
to hunt up the creature, which has un
justly earned an evil reputation as
the terror of Southern swamps. Mr.
J. Knight Perkins, of Kalamazoo, thor
oughly searched the southern portions
of the country for 14-foot alligators.
In all New Orleans he could find but
one alligator 10 feet long. Ho discov
ered that even littlo alligators from
four to eight inches long had difsap
to the census reports in The Insurance
American.
NOT SO BAD AFTER ALL.
"Ah, it’s a sad old world ” sighed
the man who had been cheated out oi
520.
"Y’es,” assented his neighbor; “one
of my horses got biß head fast in the
hayrack last night aiw broke his nock.
I was offered S2OO for him less than
a month ago.”
"Pshaw! That’s too bad. Looks
as though it’was goin’ to brighten up,
don’t it?” And he went on his way
whistling cheerfully.—Chicago Record
Herald.

Dear Sirs—l have had occasion to use
your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for
colds, and it proved to be an excellent rem

Yours very truly, W. M. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use Pe-ru
na for other ailments. The reason for this
is most other ailments begin \yith a cold.
Using Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds, he
protects his family against other ailments.
I'his is exactly what every other family in
the United States should do. Keep Pe-ru
na in the house. Use it for coughs, colds,
la grippe and other climatic affections of
