Bf' ' LEOXIE'S LILAC.
About 12 o'clock one bright February
day in Paris Madame Ulan-het sat
waiting for the arrival of her belated
scholar. Miss Cora Hell, a young
American whose habit it was to "spend
a couple of hours three times a week
in so-called "elegant conversation" in
.* . theFiench language with that worthy
dame. The little 'ipartment where the
teacher lived had formerly been a
garret over the dependance of a suburban
boarding-house, taken under
some stress of circumstance by its
? present occupant, and little by little,
? through taste and perseverance, it
had been made to "blossom like the
rose." Xo wonder merry Miss Cora
liked her tri-weekly French lessons.
The walls of the large room, divided
into two smaller ones by screens, were
hung with fluted chintz, all flowers and
leaves of brightest hue. A tiny porcelain
stove diffused, when called upon
(but that was not too often, for madatue,
like all French women, believed
in economy in wood), a friendly
warmth. In both windows, whose
paues of glass were polished like the
speckless boards of the flooring, were
kept plants and birds. A great green
I box of mignonette in flower sent out a
luscious fragrance. Vines were made
to start from behind every pictureframe
and out of every china jar upon
the shelves; and somehow or other
they grew like .lack'sbean-stalk, strong
and green and luxuriant. Best of all,
a flood of geniid sunshine came in on
all sides, for the garret boasted of various
windows. "Where madame slept one

screen at the white-curtained bed with
thecrucifix above it, but where madame
cooked no one ever guessed ; yet she
had a fashion of producing from unknown
corners a series of luncheons
that were nectar and ambrosia to her
youthful visitors. Days there had
been in madame's past experience
when the poor lady had known what

of rations, but now the fame of her
exquisite embroideries in chenille and
: silk was noised abroad, while her ocEpgH
casional scholars, like Cora Bell and u
gPjffig few liberal Americans of the same
set, made up an income 3uflicient for
. the widow's wants.
Madame Blanchet, sitting at the
open, window overlooking an ivycovered
wall that just here formed the
boundary of the Bois de Boulogne, felt
quite wistful with regret over tlienonKgi
appearance of lur favorite scholar.
" .She will not come now," the widow
Mp said to herself, as the inevitable man-,
fel clock struck a cheerful, loud-voiced
; "one." "Truly- She has twined herself
into.,Kiy""heart, that chere petite
Cora. -ITow shelaughs and dancesand
siAg? her life away! Just like that
%& '> .another one?so many years ago." A
shiver ran over the little woman's
frame, and she closed her eyes as if to
banish some painful image. "My
pretty Cora will never know so sad a
fate "as hers, thank le bon Dieu." A
light step upon the stairway, and
Cora, blooming with health and animation,
came intc the room.
"Don't scold, dear madame. There
is time enough yet for a chapter of
our book before "they send for me."
The lesson began, but Cora's attention
wandered; her thoughts flew off
at a tangent; her eyes grew dreamy;
a deeper rose-color . settled in her
cheeks. At last a little white protesting
hand was laid across madame's
page.
" Blancliet, dear, I want to confess
to somebody. Won't you be my
. priest? You know that papa is in
America attending to business always,
and that mamma is forever
going out. I've nobody but that
stupid Parker of mine, and talk I
must?1 must. Oh, Blanchet, if such
a thing can be, I am too happy ! All
of this dear blessed morning he has
been with me, and mamma has given
her consent, and we are to be married
soon."
And then, the Hood-gates loosed,
came a stream of joyous confidence.
Cora never thought to look up at her
listener until she felt a hot tear, then
another, drop upon her hands clasped
in the widow's lap.
Sr""' "What is it, dear madame?--what
Ehave I said to pain you?" the girl
asked, wondering, to be answered by a
fit of bitter sobbing. With kind and
gentle words Cora soothed her friend's
emotion, and at last Madame Blanchet
was able to speak once more.
"Forgive me, dearest young lady,"
she exclaimed. " In truth I never can
forgive myself. I owe it to you to
explain my weakness. See here: this

' Hi judge for yourself of her youth, her

[, Hgl Years ago she knelt as you do now,

HRkI her leve and happiness under circumstances
like yours. The rest is too
' painful for you to hear."
IZ 7 " Tell me more," the girl said, tenderly.
"I would be selfish indeed if I
refused my sympathy at a time when
all seems so bright before me."
Little by little *ae story was revealed.
Ten years before Leoni
Blanchet had been sought in marriage
by a wealthy Englishman, to whom
her mother "had given her with some
t; misgiving, watching her go from that
' modest home into a life of luxury with
many anxious fears. The husband
Leonie had chosen was handsome, i
young and winning; he had made good J
? his claimto.a rank and station far .
aboVe Leonie's expectations. Leonie 3
adored him. What, then, was there to ]
apprehend? The widow could not
tell, but still! Leonie's first letters
came to her so full of boyant pride, of
confident happiness, that for a time
the mother could not but reflect. it.
The young couple were absent upon
their wedding journey in the South,
and had reached Home, when a thunder-bolt
fell upon the pretty, trustful
bride. The man whom Leonie believed
to be her husband had left his
true wife in England?a gay, fashionable
beauty, suUiciently "emancipated,"
according to the notions of her
class, to mock openly and lightly at
her husband's latest fancy.
"But this is not for you to hear, my
child," the little French teacher said.
Cora, who from motives of delicacy
hail avoided looking at her friend,
glanced hastily up, struck by the suppressed
passion in her voice. "What a
transformation was there! In place
of the quiet, repressed, demure personage
she had been accustomed to see,
Madame Blanchet's eyes were a-fire;
her cheeks glowed with a dull crimson;
lior tpfth wptp rlinfliPil
"Do you know what I would have
done to him?" she went on. "I am a
Corsican, and the blood runs hot in our
veins when It is stirred by wrong?va!"
The brief passion was spent. It was
succeeded by a calm even more full of
meaning. Cora waited until her friend
could trust herself to speak.
" They parted then and there,"
Madame Blanchet went on, in a low
tone. "He did not defend himself,
lie simply laughed at her--mypoor,
heart-broken, humiliated child. He
said she was too innocent for the times
she lived in. And so she was. bon
Dieu, too innocent. She put all of
this into one liist letter to me, and she
tied?tied into the night."
"And now?" the young girl said
after a long silence.
"Now she is sf, peace," the mother
answered, quietly. " The Holy Church
received her in its bosom. Leonie is
one of the sisters of the convent
of the Sepolte Vive. For
some time past I have b?en laying up
money in order to take the journey to
Rome, but until recently it was all I
could do to live here, and to go away
from my employment meant starvation.
Oh, it' I could but have seen
her, I would have starved?ves, gladly
?but that is impossible. All 1 can do
is to visit the outside of the convent
upon her 'day.' Once a year each sister
has a 'day,' when she is allowed to
throw over the convent wall a flower,
in token to her watching friends that
she is still alive, but that is all. I
j know what llower my Leonie would
I choose?a bunch of fresh white lilac!"
" 'Sepolte Vive'?buried alive!" the
young girl repeated, sadly. A shadow
seemed to fall over her life, and her
budding happiness.
A few months later saw the Roman
spring unfold in all its glory. A party
of tourists were visiting that relic of
medieval days, the convent of the Sennifp
l'ivo Mnst, of them turned back
disappointed at the threshold, but a
group of three people lingered until
the rest of the sightseers, after a colloquy
held through < revolving barrel in
the wall of the convent, had reluctantly
dispersed. Over this barrel was
traced an inscription: "Who would
live content within these walls, let her
leave at the threshold every earthly
care." Upon these lines a woman
dressed in black, standing apart fiom
her two companions, kept her eyes
Qxed, while her lips moved in prayer.
The order of nuns who have thus ,
condemned themselves to a living ,
death subsist on charity. It is only
when their supplies are totally exhausted
that they are allowed, after ;
twenty-four hours' starvation, to ring <
a certain bell, which the outside i
world interprets, " We are famishing." 1
Two Lents are observed by them during
the year?the one common to all i
Catholic Christians, and another held ]
WivAPn "November and Christmas, i
In the intervals the sisters receive and (
partake of whatever food may be be- ;
stowed on them by visitors.
Two of the three loiterers were ,
young and handsome, radiant with ill- ]
disguised happiness. That they were
new-made husband and wife none |
could doubt, and it was a pleasant j
sight to see the wife order to be brought .
from a carriage awaiting them a
"hamper of abundant dainties, and with ]
the aid of her husband proceed to un- ;
pack their store. To gain answer from
the convent the young man knocked
briskly upon the barrel-head, which,
slowly turning, revealed a shelf within.
.
" What wilt thou, stranger ?" came ,
a voice, faint and far as the note of an ]
vEolian harp. So strong was the ,
sense of remoteness and of desolation ,
produced by this sound that involun- ]
tarily the young wife clasped her hus
band's arm in shuddering.
" Oh! it is too sad," she whispered
in his ear. "1 tiunK i wiu go oaejt 10 ,
the carriage and leave Madame ]
Blanchet with you?may I not V"
"Nonsense,darling. Who is it who (
has contrived arid carried out this ,
little expedition, I should like to ,
know? Come, cheer up, and bestow J
your bounties upon the good sisters j
within. Depend upon it, they will ,
relish them." ]
Their presents were given, and in
exchange our visitors received a series !
of cartolini.or tiny slips of printed paper
folded like homoeopathic powder papers, ^
and intended to be swallowed whole j
by the believer, who might thereafter (
hope for a cure of any mortal ailment
possessing him. As their colloquy with ]
the unseen sister came to a close, the J
young man signed to Madame Blanchet 1
to draw near. The mother had kept a ,
veil over her face while standing by in
silence, but now she sprang forward, (
and putting her lips to the opening ,
uttered with feverish anxiety a few
sentences of wild pleading unheard by
her companions.
Faster and farther were the pitying
accents that smote her ear in return.
"' Sepolte vive,' daughter. The grave
gives back no answer." j
" Let us wait beneath the garden
wall, dear friend," Cora said, as be- ,
tween them her husband find she sup- .
ported the steps of the trembling '
mother from the spot. "It should be
at about this time that the flower is ,
thrown, and oh ! how it will comfort !
you to have it from her hand !"
Underneath the ancient wall of the ,
convent garden the little group waited J
in silence. It was a moment of feel- ,
ing too profound for words. As the
hour drew near the mother left her ,
friends and went to kneel alone upon j
a grassy mound where her cheek .
might graze the wall, as if caressing
it. For a time all was silent. Tlien ;
a bell sounded the hour with slow and
solemn strokes. A bird burst into '
joyous caroling in the tree above
where Cora stood. "It is a good omen,"
she said, glancing up into her husband's
face. As the last stroke of the
bell died upon the air something white
and fragrant fell at the feet of the
kneeling figure. "It is Leonie's white ,
lilac l" L'ora crieu, siarung joyousiy

A wealthy young fellow was court- (

to accept. (
"Mydarling," he said, "you should .

without you ?"
" Yes."
" And you need have no alarm about
our substantial comforts, for I am a
man of means." ,
"That's just what I don't like. I've J
seen so many men, and heard 'em talk, '
that I want to carry a gun when I see
one coming'round. There are so many 1
men of means, and so few given to ac- !

THE FASH AND HOUSEHOLD.
Planting Fruit Treed.
In planting fruit trees, says the
Gardener'a Monthly, aim to have them
so that the hot sun will not have full
effect on the ground about the roots.
The great heat in this way injures the
trees. Many who have trees in gardens
plant raspberries under them. The
partial shade seems to be good for the
raspberries, and helps the trees. Blackberries
would, no doubt, do well in the
same situation; and strawberries, It is
well known, do not do badly grown in
this way.
.Unnajjement of the Dairy Coiv.
The general management of a cow
under the best circumstances should
be as near as may be as follows: The
cow is fed at 6 in the morning and is
thoroughly well cleaned with a card
and brush and the stable is cleaned and
littered. If the cow's coat is loose the
brushing should be thoroughly dune
and the udder made quite free from
any loose hairs or dust. The cow
should then be milked. About 9
o'clock she may be watered and put
into a yard in line weather. The water
* ? i -- - i. i-.i 1,1 U..i
siiouici not ue ice euiu, uui it i? ui<i? u
from a well. At noon the midday
feed is given and the cow will lie down
and rest. At 4 she may be turned out
and watered, and at 6, or earlier when
the days are short, put in and fed for
the night. Before she is milked the
cow is again well cleaned, and, after
milking, the stall is littered for the
night. If it will be eaten, a little hay
or fodder may be then given.
Corn Fodder.
A farmer says in the Rural New
Yorker: " I find corn fodder much
better for cattle than fodder corn. 13y
the latter I mean corn which has been
sown or drilled thickly for fodder
alone. I find that the stosk never
appear to relish it as well or eat it as
clean as they do from corn which has
produced ears. I think the mistake
is made of sowing too thick by
most persons who grow fodder corn.
Some years since, when visiting one of
mifmnat nrnminonf shnrthorn breeders.
he tolfl me that his most profitable
crop was corn planted about twice as
thick as in ordinary field culture and
thoroughly cultivated. In this way
most of the stalks make small ears,
just suitable for cattle, and the yield
of corn and fodder combined made the
crop worth more than when grown for
grain alone."
Celery Among Potntoe*.
Having, like many, rather a small
garden and needing to economize space
I tried setting the plants in line between
two hills of Early Rose. After several
years' experience of the plan I find it
answers admirably. The two things
work very well together. The following
advantage: First, of course, two
crops off the same piece of ground.
Then the hilling of the potatoes (they
receive the last banking up just before
the celery is set), leave half a trench
already made. One spit more in the
bottom completed it. The plants when
first set get nearly all the shading they
need from the potato tops, then in their
rankest vigor. Thus the scorching
heat of summer is kept off the plants
while they are making root. Before
the summer is ended the potato tops
have died down and the celery has
commenced to grow vigorously. Now
the potatoes arj ripe, and being dug
leave abundance of mellow soil ready
at hand to be scooped into the trench,
and eartiiing-up proceeds with ease
iind rapidity while the plants are rushing
along in all the luxuriance of their
autumnal growth. The only possible
objection I can imagine to this plan is
thedanger from paris green, with which
the potatoes are dosed at least twice.
In careless hands this might be, but I
take care to sift the objectioial coinpound
as far as possible on the potato
tops only, and after several seasons
experience have found no ill effect
from growing the celery in such close
proximity. For our dry inland summers
I believe in the trench l'or celery.
Last season, while some not in a trench
either was entirely arrested in growth or
Killed outright, that in the trench kept
fresh and green and maintained a modest
advance during the most scorching
weather and came right along the
moment the autumnal rains began to

and make butter l'or family use, because
we relish that which is made at
home better than that found on the
market. "When butter is bought
nt the stores, even though it be nicelooking,
we never know whether it
was neatly made or whether it is even
wholesome. In my own butter making
I try to have it as free from all im- j
purities as is possible. In order to
have good butter the milk must come
from the stable pure and clean. Some
3f my neighbors, with unblemished
reputations for cleanliness in other respects,
seem to take it as a matter of
?ourse that the milk may be brought
from the stable every morning with a
scum of filth covering its top. Butter
made from such milk I regard not only
is filthy, but also as absolutely unwholesome.

into his milk, does all his planning in

2loui ilea over uie ooiluuj. j his e*
the milk a double and pretty thorough
straining, and takes from it all that
lias fallen into it, except such as have
dissolved in the milk. While he takes
the best of care of the milk after it
reaches the house, he allows it to come
from the stable in the filthiest condition
of any I ever saw. In summer, the
most of the cows in this section run in
pastures during the day and are kept
in large yards during the night, so
there is but little difficulty in keeping
them clean. But during the winter
the difficulty is greater, and great care
is needed in keeping cows in a clean
and healthy condition.
I give the plan which I have, adopted,
and which has proved very satisfactory
in my experience. I have plenty of
room in my stable, and I give my cow an
apartment by herself, measuring about
twelve by sixteen feet. I never tie her
to anything, but allow her to run loose.
In one corner of her room I make her
a warm bed of poor or spoiled hay by
covering a space of about four by six feet
to a depth of from four to six inches.
T tea, 1 Vi,.r at- tliA rmnnsitfi <?ncl of the
room, some ten fret from her bed. Iler
standing hours are spent mostly at this
end of the room, while she never lies
ilown anywhere excepting on her bed.
The result, is I always find her dry and
clean. There are several advantages
in this method. The cow has a much
wanner and dryer bed, and it takes less
bedding than when the cow is tied.
The same bed, with slight additions,
will last for a long time. It is very
seldom, indeed, that my cow soils her ,
bed in any way. Again, her freedom
fives her a better chance for exerc'se,
iind keeps her warmer and healthier.
I have never found any dilliculty in
training a cowtolieas I wanted, when
kept in this way. Almost any cow,
excepting such as have been long
Drained to lie in filth, will seek a dry
place to lie on, and will keep herself
juite clean, if she h;is a chance to do
so. This plan is adapted more especially
to the large number of New England
people living on small farms or in
villages who keep but one cow.
Hoii*nhi>)i1 Hints.
Fresh meat, beginning to sour, will
sweeten if placed out of doors in the
:ool air over night.
Milk which has changed may be j
sweetened or rendered fit for use by !
stirring in a little soda.
Kerosene will soften boots and shoes |
hardened by water, rendering them j
joft and pliable as new.
Boiled starch is much improved by
;he addition of sperm or salt, or both,
)r a little gum arabic, dissolved.
When cooking a large fowl or joint
)f meat it may be covered with a but;ered
paper to prevent its being
:corched.
Salt will curdle new milk, hence, in
>reparing milk porridge, gravies, etc.,
he salt should not be added until the I
lish is prepared. '

A CYCLONE'S AWFUL FOBCE.
Almost Complete Destruction or 8everat
Southern Towns* and a Large Loss of Life
?Details of a Terrible Calamity.
Below we give details of the series of tornadoes
which wrought such terrible havoc itl
several Southern States. Their greatest
force was manifested in Mississippi, where
one town was swept out of existence, several
other towns suffered great injury, many per.
sons were killed?probably more than fifty?
and a great number were fatally injured. In
Georgia about twenty-five lives were lost and
many persons were injured. Tennessee, Alabama
and Iowa also suffered great injury to
property. At Beauregard, Miss., where
twenty-three persons were killed, ninety
wounded and the town entirely destroyed) an
eye*witness gave the following account!
About 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon rain
fell accompanied by thunder and lightning,
and this state of things continued for an hour
Or so, when the sKy assumeu a cupiici?. ??
hne, and presently it became very dark.
About 3:30 a rumbling sound, like that of a
heavy freight train in the distance, was
heard, proceeding apparently from the
northwest. Gradually this portentious
noise increased in intensity. The people
became alarmed at what seemed the
subterranean moaning* of an earthquake.
The thunder roared in tho sky like detonations
of tho heaviest artillery. The discharges
of lightning were r.lmost continuous,
and tho course of the fluid through tho
atmosphoro rosembled tho fall of streams of
molton metal. Accompanied by this terrific
phenomena the tornado burst upon the
little town, sweeping away the buildings,
trees and other objects in its path as if they
wore mere toys to be tossed about ar.d played
with at tho pleasure of the ^torm. For a
few minutes tho cyclone raged in the midst
of the town and then passed onward, swerving
to tho northeast, and leaving d?solat on
behind. When the violence of the wind
had somewhat subsided tho nooplo who had
a^caped destruction ventnreu forth to succor
the less fortunate whose dwellings had been
overthrown. The path of tho tornado was
about a quarter of a mile in width, embracing
the ontire business portion of tho town along
Main street. Even solid brick slruc'nres
were completely demolished. Abont thirtysix
dwelling houses and twenty odd stores
wero blown down, and tho fragments
scattered in all directions. Beauregard
is a town of nearly f?30 inhabitants.
Scarcely a resident escaped injury,
and without doubt mrny of those injured
will die from tho iffots of their won: s
The space that was a town was dotted here
and there with rudo log fires, around which
wero grouped clusters of men keeping watch
nvfir fhfl rpmnins of some de id victim of t!ie
storm. The wailing and lamentation of the I
bereave J ones were pitiful to hear, and the
awfnlne.'s of the calamity was simply heartrending.
The town was in a delorable condition.
The wounded and dying were lying
around without shelter or any comforts, and
their groans were terrible to hear.
Women and children were wandering
around in search of loved onos, who
had either perished or were buried beneath
the ruins. Dead horst s and cattle were lying
around on the main stn e: without the means
at hand to remove tt 0:11. There was not a
single house left standing 'n the whole town
of Beauregard, and the only leu'inblanco io
a structure still in exigence were two parts
of two dwellings. Under the ruins of store;
and dwellings many helpless and unfortunate
inhabitants were buried. The cyclone
moved in a northeasterly direction, and near
Aberdeen destroyed much property and some I
ten lives, mostly negroes. Nine or ten lives
were lost near Starkville, mostly at a negro
church where services were being held. One
negro man there was taken up bodily 100
feet into the air and literally blown to
pieces.
From Wesson, Miss., comes the following
story of disaster: The wind for three days
had been blowiug a gale, and the lowering
clouds indicated a storm. Its approach was
heralded by deap rumbling sounds; the windows
in the dwellings shook with violence
and many anticipated an earthquake. The
thunder roared and the lightning flashed
with alarming force and vividness. Fences
were torn down and trees which had 6tood
the stormR of years were uprooted and
inft ..n.70 nira,. Vnaf nf tlio r.iilrnfifL
jinoniinu,. - ,,
in Weston, the damage was slight, but in
the weste;n portion of the town the destruction
was terriblo. As soon ns tho storm had
somewhat abated and people began to look
about loud peals of church bells were rung
ont, and people ran in all directions toward
West Wesson, the rain, meantime, pouring
down in torrents. Reaching Peacn Orchard
street, an indescribable scene was witnessed.
This street is lined with a large
number of houses in which the operatives of
the cotton mills are domiciled, and
here the greatest destruction occurred.
The Wesson cot'on mill
employs about 400 operatives, and is one of
the most successful mills in the South. It is
thoroughly equipped with modem machinery
and ligh'e 1 by electric light. People were
seen on nil sidos sobbing, nnd the groans of
the wounded beneath the inins were appalling.
The work of removing the dead and
extricating the wounded from the ruins was
soon begun. One man died from excitement.
The t jwn was almost totally demolished, and
even the v oids surrounding it were to a great
extent swept away. The number of killed
was estimated at thirteen, and lf>0 or 200
dwellings were blown down. The number
of people with broken limbs was o^timated
by tho physicians at seventy-five. The
wounded were removed ns fastas possible tc
the houses which had escaped injury. Special
fcains from adjoining towns soon arrived
with physicians and other assistance.
The tornado also slruck tho Mis:-issippi
Tillages of Red Lick, Aberdeen, Lawrence
and Tillman. Lawrence suffered heavily
in loss of property, but no lives were lost.
At Tillman several people were killed and
the town was in ruins. At Aberdeen eight
or ten lives were lost, about fifty persons,
most of them negroes, injured, and a portion
of the town destroyed. Asido from tho looses
sustained in the towns mentioned the devastation
of the country Ijing in the path of the
hurricane is very great, croiKi, farmhouses
and stock, and in some case?, human jug
being destroyed.
At Americus, Ga., and vicinity the effects
of the storm were appalling. At midnight
the wind came np from the southwest and
rain began to fall. The wind increased to a
Sile, and at 4 o'clock a cyclot.? passed
rough Sumpter county diagonally, passing
one mile east of Americus, demolishing
everything in its course and doing
frightful damage to life and property.
The track of the tornado was fr.?m three
hundred to a thousand yards wide. The rain
poured in torrent* and the lightning Cashes,
followed by peal after peal of deafening thunder,
made up a scene at once sublime and
appalling. Houses were blown down, forests
leveled and all vestige of fences swept away.
Cattle, swine and horses were killeu by hundreds.
All the farms and plantations in the
track of the storm were laid in ruins and all
the gruin crops destroyed. Twenty-five people
were killed and 200 wounded in the county.
Many houses and mills, with their content*,
animals and children were blown hundreds
of yards.
In North Alabama foveral towns suffered
severely, and at Chattanooga, Tenn., many
dwellings and stores we o unroofed, fencesthrown
down i.n.l trees uprooted. The edge
of tho cyclone nlso struck Aloorhead City,
N. t'., blowing down several houses. In
Harrison county, Iown, the cyclone carried
away many farmhouses and barn a and killed
a great quantity of stock, beside which o

A WOMAN'S KXFBR1EKCE. '
What a Lady of Great Prominence Has to '
ear About Ber Box. ]
(Boston Globe.) }
On a recent trip by a represent atire of
this paper to the city of Haverhill, Mass., a 1
most important incident occnrrod, which J
cannot fail to be of the neatest interest to ;
all, and especially to our lady readers. The
newspaper man met a lady a trifle past
middle age with luxurious white hair that
contrasted strikingly with piercing black
eyes. She possessed a straight, full habit,
womanly, but commanding, combined with
manners wholly lady-like, and yet pro- J
nounced. Any acute judge of human nature
could see at once that he was in the presence
of an unusual personage?one destined to
accomplish more than most of her sex, and
to exert jin influence far reaching in its
poweri Tins lady was Mrs. ra. n. muguic.
Almost from childhood 9he has taken a
special interest in the bodily troubles of her
sex and has probably been more successful
in relieving suffering and saving lives than
any other woman in America. Indeed, she
seems to have been to women what Florence
Nightingale and Dorothy Dix were to the
suffering soldiers. The instances of women
who wore in the greatest agony and apparently
beyond tho reach of human aid, that
she has restored to health and happiness,
nre almost innumerable, and it was only
natural that the scribe should bocome
*pec ally interested and wish to conterse with
her more in detail.
"Ilo:v long have you l ean engaged in the
practice of medicine, Mrs. WinRate?"
" For more than twenty-five years."
"Along time, corlainly. How did you
Inppen to enter the field at thnt early day
whan women in the professions were specially
frowned down upon?"
"I think I must have inherited a taste from
my father, Proiessor J. C. Wood, of Harvard
c.l'ege. He was eminent in tho profession,
a hard worker and equally earnest in
his recreations. He hunted considerably,
and I remember when only nine years old I
esed to diFS^ct the birds and animals ho had
killed. I felt infatuated with medical science
even then, and the infatuation has continued
up to the present time."
" And did you begin your studies so early
in life ?"
" I can hardly say when I began, for I cannot
ie:r.ember when I did not read medicil
literature. You would scarcely believe it,
hut 1 wps a slender girl and did not weigh
aver 12) pounds, but I used to sit up night
after night until 2 o'clock in the morning
poring over mv studies and never dreaming
af the tlitfht of lime. It seemed as though
calls for my attendance on the sick always
-ame unsolicited. I certainly cannot fix tho
1 t"" when I fir<t began practicing. Of course
o t of my patients wore women, and the
. alural sympathy I felt for my sex has in.:ioa?ed
during all theso years where I have
!?eo:i brought so closely in contact with them
and have learned to anticipate their needs
and sympa'hize with their sufferings.
After tho opening of tho Boston Medical
I College I appeared before the faculty; passed
" T L..1
rxnminntion ana received a cupiomn. x imu
practiced for years previous to that lime but
thought il desirable to receive another diploma,
which 1 did without any effort."
' Your experience with the many and reriona
diseases of women having been so extensive
must also bo valuable. Can you
give me some facts regarding them."
" I find that woman seems born to suffering,
and where she avoids it, it ia by reason
of some care on her part or owing to some
sj e ial renewing power. It is true some
| women go through life without unusual suffering,
but they are none the less in danger,
for there are critical periods all along their
pathway when the utmost precaution is required.
The innumerable complaints called
female weaknesses; the irregularities of life
and changes of the system all indicate the
perils which hang over every woman's career,
and which, unless attended to, may result
disastrously."
" But is there no way by which these terrible
troubles can be avoided?"
"That has been the problem for years.
T'>e habit' of life and the demands of fashion
are clearly at war with the health of
women. I have been, perhaps, unusually
successful in my treatment cf their troubles,
but there have been many cnses that seemed
specially stubborn. I recall one in particular.
I had exhausted all the usual expedients
and the results were not satisfactory. I became
worried over the case and really did
not know what to do, but finally thought I
would try some hing out of the usual line. I

very highly mid so I procured Rome and
made a chemical analysis of it. I fonnd it
was perfectly pure, and that the ingredients
wero unusually valuable. So I began {riving
it to my patient, changing it. however, into
[ a bottle of my own. To my great joy it
I geemed to have an almost immediate effect
and a complets cure was the result. Since
[ then I have used it constantly in my practice
and have cured every form of female weak-,
ness, as well as displacements, dropsical tu|
mors, cellu dropsy and all such troubles. I
have also use.1 it with the best results in
cases of pregnancy and gestation. Indeed I
have found it of untold value and benefit.
"Have jo:i any objection fo giving me
the name of this remedy of which you
speak ?"
"None whatever. It is Y?arner's Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure."
"Why, that is a proprietary nied'.oino!"
"Certainly, hut what of that ? I havo but
or.e end in view in the tren tment of mj
I patients namely?their restorat.on to health.
In the accomp'.ishn o.it of tbis end I presenile
what 1 Lelio/e to be beneficial, nc
matter what the professional consequencemay
I.e."
" I notice in the Now York papers that
Doctors Hammond, Agnew and othler prominent
physicians are taking a similar stanl,

" Yes, and all independent thinkers in the
profession are bound to do so. I am, however,

" I am proud of that" she replied, " and I
was also pleased a short timefdnce to receive
an offer at a large salary to take the profe.'airship
in the new medical college at Walla
Walla, on tho Pacific coast. I do not know
how thoy heard of me out there, but I was
obliged to decline their offer."
" And so, in your experience with the diseases
of women, you have found success, and
that Warner's Safe Cure has been a most
efficient reireJy."
"Yes, I have had unusual success and the
remedy of which yon speak has been proven
of great benefit. There are, however, somo
ba?e imitations of it to be found in the
market; these are bad and should be avoided,
but the genuine remedy is one of tho very
bist."
" And has not the practice of your profess

" No, I sim better now than ever before in

riding one cold night to see a patient and
was obliged to remain indoors for ovoc two
months. Otherwise I am healthy, as yoa

FASHION NOTES.
The most daring liberties are taken
in color combinations.
Old rose and garnet make an admirable
combination.
Shaded straw and chenille "bonnets
are largely imported.

decorate costumes as well as bonnets.
Louis Quinze shoe buckles are now
used in Paris to fasten collars as well
as hats.
Large buckles or slides are the preferred
ornaments on large hats and
bonnets.

(Jirls of all ages above two and
under seventeen wear their front hair
in a straight Vandyke band, and the
back hair slightly crimped and llowing

capotes, Kanchons and (ireuze bonnets.
Alligator skin croquet shoes in the
natural leather color, in maroon, terra
cotta, all the new colors, and black,

lilies of the valley, mountain
daisies, rosebuds and tiny green leaves,
violet, arbutus blossoms and the like, j
made of precious stones made of a

lace pins, and are taking the place of :
the jeweled-eved animals, insects and
serpents so long in favor.

hlne. ere am white and shrimp pink, j j
with the embroidery done along the ! |
edge in abundant quantities to trim | j
tiie skirts with two or three gathered (
rallies, and to edge the overdress; they jj

A Strange Story.
The Strathmore family is one of the
oldest in Scotland, and its head has
been an earl ever since 1423. A cor- <
respondent of the Mail and Express
f/Mtw /?Ar> rtttnf innrj f li nr Q
WrilCb LUclO IUI iuui gcuciaviuuo vuvtv
has been a mystery at Glamis castle
which no one has ever been able to
fathom. Some said it was a ghost,
others a mysterious hidden treasure ;
but rumors of a more or less uncanny
nature floated round the country and
have done so for about ninety-three
years. Four earls of Strathmore have
seated themselves in ancestral state at
"Westminster, and yet all the while the
real ep.rl, the eldest of the family, was
alive, hidden in the vast old feudal
palace at Glamis. He died only last
year, aged ninety-two years, and he <
was a monster. lie stood eight feet
in height. His head and the upper
part of his body resembled that of a
toad. His akin was marked with
black and white splotches, and his
hands were webbed. He could not
speak or hear, but his eyes were bright
but wild. lie never showed signs of
reason, and in order to avoid legal difficulties
this horror was hidden in a
building erected on purpose. His jailers
were paid handsome annuities to
keep silent. As each earl succeeded to
the estate he was taken to see this terrific
creature, and it is said that one of
these gentlemen almost lost his reason
in beholding the loathsome and gigantic
horror. Last year the poor wretch
died and the secret has come out, owing
to difficulties concerning the disposal
of the remains.
