I "Seneca Oil." / Fifty years ago the public were offered as a valuable medicinal substance what was called Seneca oil. This, as is common with many less useful remdies, was alleged to be an Indian cure for many disorders. Later it was recognized as the common petroleum that soon flowed in vast quantities from the wells and is now a household word. And under its refined condition, as kerosene, this oil, as a useful remedy for certain nse9, should not be made light of, however it may be as a combustible for use in the houshold lamps. To the poultryman it is invaluable as a preventive , against all kinds of injurious vermin, including the destructive gapeworm, which succumbs at once to a few drops poured in the young bird's throat. It frees the horses from lice and tbe sbeep and lambs from ticks, and in the garden, as an emulsion made with soapy water, it destroys every minute insect that it touches. In the laundry it serves to loosen the dirt and stains from the clothing; it is tbe best thing to clean the gummed connections of machinery and to loosen rusted bolts. And in household medicine it is useful as a liniment for bruises and bums, and as a counterirritant in cases of common inflammation of internal organs. TK* nmrlo ml ic nf atill more value. and is more safely used on account of its milder form. It may be used for painting implements and the handles of tools, for fences and outbuildings, and for preserving shingles on a roof it is unapproached by any other substance. And, curiously, although it is so inflammable when so used, the shingles are not easily set on fire. It is a good lubricant for axles in the winter, and for heavy and slow moving shafting at all times. _ "When made into an emulsion, or a soap with lime, it kills the sheep scab insect, apd if tbis mixture is painted on the fruit trees it repels the Dorere" and the pestilent rabbits and mice that gnaw the bark.?New York Times. Shells on the Carolina Coast. After a EtroDg easterly blow the beach oi Sullivan's Island is strewed with a variety of shells, some of them being both pretty and rare, and any one desirous of taking up the study of conchology cannot do better than to make a collection of these during his summer evening strolls on the island next summer, reserving the arranging and classifying of his treasures for the long winter evening. The further we go towaids the tropics the shells increase in number and variity, and the warm water of the Gulf of Mexico yields an abundant harvest of them. The western coast of Florida is strewn with multitudes of . delicate and lovely specimens not often seen on our shore.?Charleston (S. C.) News and Courier. The Mystery of a Will's Hiding Placc. Two hunters cut down a chestnut tree in Dark Hollow, a locality three miles east of Hamburg, Conn., to get a nest of gray squirrels in its hollow trunk. They found among the leaves and pieces of bark of which the nest was composed | some scraps of paper with writing on them, several handkerchiefs, bits of ribfl bon and numberless fragments of twine. IThe pieces of paper proved to be the holographic, -will of Abram Mosher, a farmer living near Dark Hollow, who died in the early part of last summer, worth $75,000. How the will got there is a mystery.?Chicago Post. How to Provo It. A rash assertion cannot be made st rone by dmpie reiteration. It we say a thing is prompt in its aotion and its effects are permanent, there should be evidence to support the assertion and that evidence should be without a flaw, like the following: January 17th, 1883. Messrs. Geo. C. Osgood & Co., Druggists, Lowell, Mass., wrote: "Mr. Lewis Denni*, 136 MoodySt., desires specially to say; "Orrin Robinson, of Granitevilie, Mass., a boy of twelve years, came to my house in the Summer of 1881 walking upon crutches, his left leg having been bent at the knee for over two "months. 1 had some St. Jacobs Oil in the house which 1 gave him to rub on his knee. Tr. oIt Via hud no nRA for his crutches. and went home well without them, and be has been well since. St. Jacobs Oil cured him." After an interval or about four rears Messrs. Osgood & Co., on June 18th, 1887, were asked about the condition of this case and they replied: Lowell, Mass., July 9th. 1887. "Gentlemen: Mr. Lewis Dennis has just called and , Informs me that tbe boy Orrin Hobinson, who I was a poor cripple on crutches and was cured Iby St. Jacobs Oil in 1881. has remained permanently cured. The young man has been and is now at work every day at manual lar bor; a ca?e certainly which proves theefflcacy ot St. Jacobs Oil.

How many women who fondly love the | golden symbol of their wedding vow know why they wear it on the. third finger of the left hand? That particular digit was chosen because it was believed by the Egyptians to be directly connected by a slender nerve to the heart itself. And those ancient worshipers of Isis held this finger sacred to Apollo and the sun, and therefore gold was the metal chosen for the ring.?New York Sun. HOW FRENCH MAIDENS ARE EDUCATED. The French maiden is educated after a very different plan from that which governs the American girl's instruction. She enters at five years the school, where she remains for six, ten or twelve years, until her education is finished. The schools open in September and continue until August, with no vacations except a few days at Christmas and Easter, and no Saturday holidays. Under this system the teachers thoroughly understand their pupils, and lay out for them a course of study in which there is gradual and constant development, but no hurry or cramming for promotion into higher schools or colleges. .... ^ | - SnOPLIFTING IX PARIS. A French joumab'st has recently given some curious information about the women who are tempted and who fall during their shoplifting expeditions.. He says that in Paris no fewer than 4000 women are caught every year stealing before the counter. The number of titled ladies seized with kleptomania while examining the fashions is almost incredible. Among the most recent culprits were a Russian Princess, a French Countess, an English Duchess and the daughter of a reigning sovereign. As a rule, these more distinguished offenders are let off on the payment of a round sum for the relief of the poor, and when cV?nnliftcr io Irnnrvn tA Ka VUV W AUVTTU fcV W IIV/U ,VUV sum exacted rises to r>s much as $2000. The police authorities consent to this sort of condonation.?New York Press. CAPACITY OF WOMEN.! Miss Effie Johnson is an English lady who recently delivered a very interesting talk on the "Capacity of Women," before the Somerville Club. She held that capacity was not a difference of sex; it was not a capacity which divided human beings as men and women. Going back to earlier times, Miss Johnson traced the history of women in the savage state, tfhen she had often as much voice in the government of the tribes as man. For instftace, the aboriginal tribes of Australia had women in their councils of war, the mea squatiea in a ring ill one spot, tne women in a similar ring not far off. No war was decided on unless the women agreed. Again, in primitive tribes, when a murder was committed, the wife or mother of the injured man was always consulted,and her judgment was followed in the pursuit of the criminal. The ancient Egyptians had not only queens, but priestesses, priestesses who Jed religious ceremonies,and were no mere figureheads. To-day, women were held to have a capacity for hard work; for instance, a woman might stand at the washtub all day, it was only well paid nrnrLr cV>o trao 11? ?T vi>? ouv ffiw vibvauv;u nuuu. iiuiurnujrj I in the debate which followed there were very few objections to the opener's statements; the two chief were, that there were no great women composers of music and very few women inventors. The latter objection was disposed of on the ground of difference of education, but the former was considered tolerably valid, since no woman has yet produced an oratorio.?Chicago Post. FRRNCH WOMEN. French women are very superior to French men, as we see them, as a rule. They contain in themselves the advantages of two distinct epochs, and whi!e possessing nearly as much personal charm as in youth, they have all that one gains by experience and maturity. They keep things together as the young ni-vf 1 - vv?? v?w. xjucj oct pcupie at ease, and listen as well as talk. They recall the day of thj salon, because they are ready to sacrifice themselves to the group which they gather around them, and they have also an ambition to be useful, which was unknown to the precieuscs ridicules. Indeed, a French woman of any age seems to have a private elixir of her own, which stays by her through good report and evil report, through good fortune and evil fortune; 6he is always pleasing, cheerful and sympathetic. France has never produced a second George Sand, and these elegant chatelaines are as unlike her as possible, and would be shocked to hear that there was anything in common between them In their beautiful tea-gowns and the eccentric who wandered along the borders of the Indre and in the meadows of the valley of the Noire, in the neighborhood of Nohabt, in a man's costume, a frock coat buttoned tightly around the waist, her luxuriant hair falling over a Byronic collar, with a cane or whip, smoking cigarettes, as d*d George Sand. And yet each one of them has something of that queer mixture?like her? the love of literary companionship,, the desire to rise to aesthetic discussion. "Women in France have always shared in the discussion as to the property and the business of the husband; they in the higher circles have a desire now to join in the thought and the literary experience. The stories of Jules Jacin, Balz*c, Theophile Gautier, Alphonse Karr, are replete with these tokens of feminine in. flucnce of the higher order. They are very religious and very attentive to their charities. The fancy fairs which arc so fashionable in the Champs Elysees are under the conduct always of the greatest ladies. And how decorous, how quietly elegant, they are! I fear our young girls could take a lesson of them.?Harper's Bazar. THE LATEST STYLES IN RD?G9. One of the most interesting things in j thifi modern life of ours is the decadence J ! of many superstitions that have long been held to. It was but a few years ago that the opal wao regarded as a most unlucky stone, while to-day the fashionable jeweler has all he can do to supply the great demand for them. Public sentiment ha<* entirely changed, and to-day the opal is believed to be lucky, and fashion has adopted it. Opal rings are just the thing now, and for beauty and display they can hardly be excelled. An opal set in a small circle of diamonds or pearls makes a most beautiful ring, and they are worn now in all styles, it being the stone itself that is fashionable. If one can get rid of the superstition of ill luck, and wear an opal ring, the very latest ideas of fashion and modern thought are complied with. Another fad in jewels is the wearing of Wisconsin pearls in rings. These pearls are from Sugar River, Wisconsin, but they rival the Oriental pearls in many ways. We should feel proud of this native product that has become so fashionable, and they are worthy of all adTHott orp nf rare rnlnrs. nink I uiaavtvu* a??w v? ^ . black and bronze?tints not possessed by tbg Oriental pearls, and altogether I they form a most beautiful setting. They are set together in pairs and threes, sometimes five small ones in a row, and, again, tbey are encircled with sciall diamonds, which act admirably to set off the natural tints of the pearl. These may be purchased in all styles at prices ranging from fifty dollars for the single pearls to ten times as much for the more elaborate styles. Diamonds are always fashionable, and . rubies and sapphires come next in popular favor. These gems have a permanent hold, and styles change very little regarding them. It is safe to say that young ladies prefer a solitaire, and it is likely that for engagement rings it will always be popular,but after that the twostone rings are most fashionable. The choice of the jew els is left to the taste of the wearer, but one of the stones is generally a diamond. Sometimes where two diamonds are worn, the stones differ slightly in color, so that one serves to set off the beauty of the other. A diamond with ruby or sapphire makes a beautiful combination, and where the diamond is the centre stone of the three, the effect is very good. A new style in engagement rings is one which will probably not meet with general favor. The ring does not form a complete circle, but the two ends ! overlap one another, and each end is set I with a diamond, which brings the two jewels up and down. It is more than lively, however, that the solitaire will continuo the favorite as suggested. The English wedding ring, which is a nar-. row band, but very thick, is still most popular; the so-called American ring be* olf artofkoi? 1 aa nmmi'nAnt: I 1U? a >vmc auu auvgumvi ?.w band. Snake rings are also in favor, being composed of two or three coils. Sometimes jewels are set in for eyes,and again the ring is made of plain gold. Coil rings, or rope rings, made ot two or three twisted wires are also worn. These rings are all gold, or else of gold and platina alternating. Another curious ring is the rheumatism ring, which is J composed of iron filled in with some other metal. This ring is supposed to be a preventive against rheumatism, but it , will not appeal to many people on account of its beauty. The slender marquise ring is always a favorite, with a central stone surrounded with small pearls or diamonds. "Pinky" rings are still much affected by young ladies, who select them with the gem appropriate to the month of their birth.?Harper's Bazar. FASHION NOTES. It looks as if the "postage 3tamp" bonnets we're coming into fashion again. Bow-knot pins have come to stay long enough for every maiden to have one. Garnets are usually fashionable, nol only as jewelry, but for trimming costumes. A new and striking design in novelty wool goods shows veinin^s like wood, and is called "quartered-oak." White dresses nre coming into favor again, and will be worn for evening more generally than for many years. A Parisan novelty is a fringe garni ture composed of soft silk crocus blooms and buds in ail the natural shades. This was designed to trim a gown of eau da Nile crepe de chine. For soiree? and grand dinners Felix is making rich brocades, thick-ribbed veloutines and light moire Pekins, so cut that the stripes form a V shape in the front of the skirt. At present, outside of Shakerdom, there is no such a thing as a plain waist' Bodices for all occasions are either draped or more or le9s elaborately orna mented. Not infrequently the two sidei of a bodice are quite different. While black silk hosiery is unquestionably the most fashionable of any IInr\ mon trAt-n All olmAQ< SlU^lU OUi v auu uittj nwiu vu uiui^i all occasions, yet the markets show the most exquisite designs in colors to match the dress goods in the 6pring styles. Many dressy bodices for slender women are sharply pointed and fastened either in the back or under the arm. The lining alone has darts with the outside laid in surplice folds. The sleeves are full, but not so high in effect as formerly. Among the fancy silks being made up for summer wear are those with a twilled changeable ground of contrasting colors figured in a trellised vine, or white stripes of fluttering ribbons tied in a bow-knot holding baskets of flowers. For'morning wear, for shopping and traveling, English wools and sleazilywoven home-spuns, either in check or stripes, or flecked as with snowflakes of very rough wool as in the bourrettes of former years, will be worn during the early spring. A very handsome imported dress of very flee cloth has the basque skirts, the hem across the front and Bides of the skirt, and the waist from shoulder seams to bodice point trimmed with passementerie bow-knots ?et on about an inch and ; a half apart. i - - - - ?It 'r . < .

Genius may be swift, but patience has the surest feet. A self-made man never gets tired ot bragging on his job. More people fall from discouragement . than from misfortune. If groaning could heal broken bones, nobody would be lame. No man can look at the stars without wanting to live forever. If nobody had a hobby the world would soon stop moving. There would be more good boys if there were more good fathers. Love never has to be watched to see that it does a full day's work. Living only for what we can see, proves that we are short-sighted. The man who loves most is not the one who tries to keep the most. Admiration is well enough in its way, but it can never do the work of love. ? A fanatic is a man who takes a burn log interest in tometmng we aon c use. The greatest blockhead is the one whose mistakes never teach him anything. It is a great deal easier to be contented without riches than it with them.? Indianapolis (Ind.) Ram's Horn. A Famous Old Argonaut Jatfpe. Judge Heard en described the morning appearance of the late Judge Lake when he sat unon the bench. It seems that Judge Lake used to be a sort of Judge Jeffreys toward criminals and that his mercy was never strained. For instance, he would walk up the steps of the "bench," and the poor murdering or thieving criminal below would shiver and thick of cells and gallows. 4'Pat," would the Judge say eharply, ,4heat the stove I" * Then the faithful menial would stir the fire hurriedly, and the Judge would adjust his shining collar and faultless neckcloth. i After which he would rub his polished finger-nails together and thrust them through a page or two of the decisions of that famous British jurist, Lord Erskine, and as a climax he would look at his translucent hands and exclaim: " Hurry them up?I've only a few minutes this morning." Then the batch of prisoners would be ushered into the dock and the steely eyes nf thfi .Tudce vrould be turned UDon them in such a fashion' that, like certain pictures painted by the old masters, one might imagine that the eyes looked a dozen ways at once. Lake seems to hare been so impartial that he lacked discrimination,for on a certain occasion, when the clerk called off \ me nrst name on me uuc&.ei, a aj bearded burglar of sixty-eight years stepped forward to be sentenced. "Prisoner at the bar," said the Judge, inspecting his elegant little finger-nail, "you have been before this court on the charge of theft many times. I hesitate to be severe, but in justice to public morals I find it my duty to sentence you to confinement in State prison for the term of fifty years, and when you emerge from its walls may you be a better man 1'' 'Say, Judge," said the clerk, looking up to the polished jurist, ''you got the wrong man?you forgot?it was young Hayes you were going to send up for fifty.

"Oh, I see?yes, yesl?dear me!?how very odd 1 Just give Hayes fifty years also, and you may as well let the other matter stand. When a man of sixty odd years hasn't learned enough to avoid being found out he's much safer in jail." And the docket would proceed.?San Francisco Examiner. Spontaneous Combustion. A young man of Parkenburg, W. Va., employe of aD oil company, and whose woolen clothing was saturated with linseed oil and other inflammables, was washing hie hands in benzine wnen nis clothing suddenly burst into flame. The other employes extinguished the fire, and he was found to be seriously burned. His wounds were dressed in cotton waste saturated with linseed oil, and he was put to bed. Seme hours after that the bed caught fire, and he was again badly burned. Dr. Cowden, the attending physician, supposing the tires to originate in spontaneous (.combustion, proceeded to make some experiments, which he thus describes: The first test was by saturating waste with linseed oil and keeping it at a temperature of 140 degrees; in three hours it began to smoke,* and in a draft ignited. Second test, by rubbing waste containing some paint and the linseed oil on a wooden block lor two minutes, then put in oil, both at a temperature of ninety-five degrees (not quite the beat of the human body); it took fire in less than one hour. Linseed r?il olnno hjoq licorl nn tViP with thfi same results. Fourth, linseed oil and waste were kept at ninety-five degrees three and one-half hours, were taken out and iubbed, and soon bagan to smoke, and in a draft ignited. These experiments were intended to place the oil and waste as near as possible under the same conditions that they were in the bed of the pat ient, and at about the same tempeiature of his body heat. All the experiments brought about cheraicil oxidation and combustion, and there is reason to believe that the burning and subsequent tire in his bed were from similar causes.?New Orleans Picajune. 20tf Oraupes on One Tree. In the doorway of A. H. Tults, of Pomona, there is a youn^ orange tree that is a marvel, says the Los Ange.cs (Cal.) Times. It was a small tree, budded one year when set ?wo years ago?in June. 1889. It is now not a large tree, and the wonder is how it can support th? enormous crop of fruit it has. There are 206 fine large oranges on this tree, and they are coloring like tnose upon trees bearing but few. It is a Malta blood and made a good growth the first year and a moderate growth this year. In one cluster jibout the main stem there are sixteen oranges, and a branch one-half inch through has nineteen upon it. Could such a tree be shown at the Columbia Exposition what a tide of emigration would be turned toward the orange lands of California. :i '< <r'\ : Beware of Ointments for Catarrh That Contain Mercury, As mercury will surely destroy the sense of Bmell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces.
