Not many years ago flowers were expensive luxuries, only to be obtained in early spring by thoso who eould afford to pay fancy prices; now anyone may purchase in the streets for a penDy the most lovely flowers from the Scillv Islands, Holland and the south of France. Every flower has its allotted week or fortnight while the rush is on, the jonquils, the hya (cinths and the violets. Just now violets are in full swing, and every day three trains leave the south of France for Paris laden with them. The train which reaches Paris at 5 o'clock l'n the morning is the one which supplies the French capital; the burden of the other two trains is dippersed all over Europe, but more especially to England. The violets are collected all along tbo Mediterranean shores, are packed in little wickerwork baskets and sent off by express train. The cost of transport is at the rate of a penny a pound, and each truck contains between four and five tons of violets. Here in London the flowergirls sell them in the streets from their baskets, but in Paris they are sold , irom lillie cans at a peuijj u uuuv^uci, and everybody buys them, heedless of the fact that they are the Napoleonic emblem. A few years ago anyone who wore a buttonhole of violets would have been put down as an enemy of the Republic, but it shows how dead the idea of a Napoleonic revival is in France when every man in the streets wears its badge without any thought of the pretender across the frontier. Otherwise, the utter dislocation into which parliamentary government has fallen in France might, coupled with the wearing of the violet, have given rise to hopes for ths restoration of the Empire.?

Not having any money to pay her railway fare, she 6et out to cover the journey, a distance of 540 kilometres, on foot. When nearly a third of her journey had been accomplished her strength gave out. She determined then to travel at the expense of tho railway company, and, biding her time, she obtained a seat on the buffer of a goods wagon as a train left the station. For many a mile she rode in tbis perilous position, and when discovered by a railway official she was half dead with cold and fatigue.

' Fight of a Hunter With Cranes. While Allen Newman, of Decker, tnd., was hunting he fired upon a , Bock of cranes and wounded one. When he attempted to capture the i crippled bird it struck at him viciously with its beak and tried to tear out his eyes. The infuriated crane made such a noise that the rest of the flcck returned to its aid and all set upon Mr. Newman, who beat them off with bis gun. The fight lasted until thirteen cranes lay dead upon the field, ind the hunter was exhausted befon be won the battle. Right or Left-Eyed. Ton are either left-eyed or righteyed, unless you are the one person out of every fifteen who has eyes ol equal strength. You ako belong to the same minority of one out of every ten persons if your left eye is stronger than your right. As a rule just as people are right-handed, they are right-eyed. This is probably due to the generally great use of the organs of the right side of the body, as, for example, a sportsman, using his right arm and shoulder, uses his right eye to sight his gun, thereby strengthening it with exercise. Old sea captains, after long use of the telescope, find their rigm eye much stronger than the left. This law is confirmed by the experience of aurists. If a person who has ears of equal hearing has cause to use one ear more than the other for a long period, the ear brought into requisition is found to be much strengthened, and the ear which is not used loBes its hearing in a corresponding degree. Strongest Rope. Given an equal number of strands to make up the rope, and each of the 3ame circumferenoe, it may be readily shown that wire, twisted into rope form, will make a rope so strong as to idmit of no comparison even with the best white hemp rope. Twisted hempen cords will sustain 8746 pounds, if the rope be one inch thick; but one-eighth of an inch in diameter if iron will sustain more than one i inch in circumference of hemp rope.; No rope, whatever Its material, could bear comparison with an inoh rope made of piano steel wire, such a rope being able to bear not less than 268,300 pounds, or nearly 120 tons, before it could be torn by a dead weight.?

LAWRENCE COUNTY. It Sounds Like a Miracle of Old?An Aged Man Made Young by the Use of a Simple Remedy?Ho Tells How His Yonth Was iliturned. From the Courier and Freeman, Potsdam, xr xr iT? Jl St Lawrenco County has a national reputation as the banner county of the Empire State. Men reared in old St. Lawrence hava achieved notoriety as consuls, governors and renowned jurists, and have distinguished themselves and the land of their nativity in every walk of life. There is an indefinable something that lends strength to manhood there, and gives him the bone and sinew and the mental energy that brings success in life. The winds, first blowing from the majestic St. Lawrence River, and then from the pine and opruce-covered mountains of the Adironaacks, give a richness to the atmosphere. The outdoor life in this climate gives a man a strong and sturdy physique, and his free and independent mode of liying gives him a rugged character. John Henry Henderson was a man that enjoyed all these sturdy characteristics. He was always a strong man and had never had u fever or other serious illness. Brought up in a prosperous farming community he became oie of its mentally and physically strong citizens and gained a livelihood at ! carpentry, as did Joseph in the Bible days. | But at last a break came that threatened to . forever wreck his health and happiness and I end his days of usefulness and activity. In conversation with a newspaper man, Mr. Henderson told his story as follows: "I had spent two years in Minnesota and the same length of time in Oregon, but the summer of '94 found me back at my old St. Lawrence County home, in the town of Hopkinton, working industriously at carpentering. My home and shop were on a farm, and my income was derived from repairing and building for my farmer neighbors. 'It was on a hot July afternoon in the summer of '94 that one of my neighbors | sent for me to come out to his hay fleld. He had broken the reach to his wagon and wanted it repaired at once so that he would not be delayed in bis haying. To fix the wagon I had to have a long, heavy plank, and the nearest I could find was a mile and a half distant" Many a man would shrink from shouldering a heavy plank on a hot afternoon and walking a mile and a half, but Mr. Henderson said: "I didn't think much absut it; I had always been strong and so I carried the plank into the fleld and mended the wagon. Before the afternoon was over I found that I had done wrong, that I had hurt my back and had to lie down, while sharp pains darted through my back, head and neck. "That was the beginning of my trouble. I found that I couldn't straighten up after T V?#*.* rtitif TTrr>??lr Thft nfliflS LUCtb rtuu A uau IV V|\A?fc nv4u. ? ? - r troubled me almost constantly, and after sitting still a few moments I would have to get up and move around in hopes of finding relief. I became useless and life became a burden to me, and I couldn't even write so badly was I affected. "When I tried to work' my nose would bleed freely and I would be dizzy. Frequently I felt so badly that I had to lie down. Liniments were no good, and nothing Knve relief until I began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I had suffered nearly live months when I read one of Dr. Williams' advertisements and bought some of the pills, which I commenced using, and after I had used two boxes l leJt better in every way. Five boxes freed me from the burden I had borne and I was no longer troubled with my complaint." To-day Mr. Henderson is a well man. strong, erect, broad-shouldered aud with a ruddy complexion, notwithstanding his sixty-eight years of age. He worked steadily all the summer and fall and said that his health was much better than men of his ace generally. "People remark that my health .ind appearance seem to be better than in years. My blood circulates better, my hands feel warm, and what is unusual in a person of my age, my nails arc soft and grow like , a young person's." Tiiik Pills w?ro truly a God-send to Mr. I Henderson, and he thoroughly appreciates j the fact and wants his friends to know how j wonderfully # ey have benefited him. He I now enjoys tne vicor of youth, aud hard ' worK uns ui-> lurrura lur mm. mi suys: i | can work all day planing and sawing with out feeling any of that lameness that used . to bother me."

I was determined to give them a trial, and at last procured a box by sending to Utica. I had suffered from' indigestion, sour stomach, heartburn _ and distress in my stomach after eating. I began dy taking a Tabule after my breakfast and supper and experienced immediate relief, and in a few days the distressing symptoms had entirely disappeared. Now when I eat anything that usually disagrees with me I take one Tabule and avoid unpleasant consequences. I have also found in them a very agreeable relief for constipation. (Signed), Mo8. C. H.
