Thc greatest surprise I ever experi enced in the unexpected appearance o? a wild creature in the heart of the metropolis, was ene day in the spring cf 1901, when I saw a 'possum cross ing. Broadway near Chambers street. The creature had no chance; I think it was a truck that killed lt; and a great crowd gathered, stopping trafile, excitedly discussing tho trag edy. The majority declared the ani mal to be a rat; the minority main tained that lt was a guinea-pig. Then as the police interrupted discussion by clearing the car-tracks, a large negro dropped from the back of a truck, seized the animal, and mounting the cart tail once more, held his priz<| aloft, grinning from eor to ear. "Eas ser 'possum," he said, and pockstci the future piece de resistance, have never learned where that 'pos sum came from; but there's no doubl where he went. Ducks, geese, snipe] and gulls, pass over in their mlgraj tions, and it is not uncommon tq r??a?ch a glimpse of hawks hangii high above tho city smoke. Once I saw a woodcock lying dea?j on the sidewalk of Fifth avehue-l curiously enough In front of Dclmonf co's.

A Young: New York Lady Tells of a Wonderful Cure : - M My trouble was with the ovaries ; I am tall, and the doctor said I grew too fast for my strength. I suffered dreadfully from inflammation and doctored continually, but got no help. I suffered from terrible dragging sen sations with the most awful pains low down in the side and pains in the back, and tho most agonizing headaches. ' No ono knows what I endured. Often I was sick to thc stomach, and c ory little while I would be too sick to go to work, for thn.e or four days ; I work in a large store, and I suppose stand ing on my feet all day made me worse. "At thc suggestion of a friend of i my mother's I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com Foural, and it is simply wonderful, felt better after the first two or three doses ; it seemed as though a weight was taken off my shoulders ; I con tinued its use until' now I can truth fully say I am entirely cured. Young girls who are alwajrs paying doctor's bills without getting any help ns I did, ought to take your medicine.

"Didn't you tell them, Mr. Mowbray hasn't como j'ot?" "Ycs*m, and they said they'd-, wait, I've shown them into the drawing room." "Very well, I shall be down in a moment." "Tho gentlemen told mc not to dis turb you, but I thought you would like to kr.ow they were here." "Thank you, Mary." "Will the gentlemen stay to ?Inner?" "No, I hope-I menu I thick not. Yen may sound thc gong at the usual time. Don't IOP.TC:, plctsc." "No'm, I wen't forget." And Mary smiled significantly to herself as she retired to the kitchen. This would not he (he first time she had been called up?n to scund the dinner gong at Molly Lo ?gc ar, a gentle hint to visitors Hint it was timo for them to go. Mary had discovered long ago, that hosp?ality to "master's friends" was not one of her young mistress' vir tues. "And I don't blame her, neither," said Mary to herself; "it's only nat upral she shouldn't want them always hanging around and taking master's attention off cf herself, and she only married six months." Mrs. Mowbray gave a Iii tlc p?tu lent sigh. "I suppose I must." she murmured, addressing her looking glass with a frown. And then she began to smile, half reluctantly, at the face she saw reflected t>.ere. It was a pretty face. The frown clouded the prettiness, but the smile made it bewitching. Yet Mrs. 'Mow bray frowned almost as oftcu as she smiled. But then things happened to anuoy her. Harry was a near boy, of course, but-well, he certainly had his faults. What made him so late tonight, for instance? ?surely he hadn't gone off again to play chess with that horrid Bob .lollibois, as he did only the other week. But, no, he wouldn't be so selfish and horrid when he knew perfectly well how unhappy it would make her. She had told him so when he carno home at 8.30 o'clock the o? her night, and he had vowed never to do it again. Harry was a man of his word; she would say that for him. He had promised before they were married to give up that hateful volunteering JfcaJ nhvnys tnnit up SO ?S io ?vuieniiy. A man muBnj5TJWPty far gene to give np everything, as Mowbray docs. You don't think he'll come to tho smoker?" "No-I'm afraid he won't. Since he's been married he can't be induced to spend an evening away from her." "Poor old Mowbray. He's bound to get tired of it." "Yes. a man wants a little change, even if he's married an angel. Human nature can't stand monotony." "Adam's relying on Mowbray to ring. Thc follows will be horribly dis appointed if he doesn't." "So will Mowbray himself. He used to bo uncommonly keen on it. Of course, he'll refuse, simply because he's afraid of hurting his wife's feel ings." "It strikes mo he's carrying devo tion a bit too far. Why, he seems to have thrown over every blessed thing he ever cared for. Thc Growlers are furious in his desertion. They've lost their best halfback. And old Harding was grumbling to me, only last night, because Mowbray hasn't put his nose inside the Schcol of Arras for months." "That must have been a blow to Mowbray, to give up these bayonet competitions. I!e was a dead certain ty for at least ono prize. " "It's the same with everything. He's losing his form ail round. It's a sin 4bat such a good sportsman should be allowed lo run to seed; and a woman who makes her husband sacrifice all his pet hobbitc must be-" Tho speaker paused expressively. "Well, of course, wo don't know that it's her fault. He never so much as hinted at it. Pretends he's drop 4. ping out of things to please himself." "But who believes that?" "Nobody! Oh, you're quite right it ia my fault!" .. Ijt waa not Jack Hunt's voice that answered his friend Bundy's question. The two men turned to the speaker with startled faces. It was Mrs. Mowbray, who detached herself from tho shadow of tho screen at the door and came toward them with outstretched hands. "It was mean to listen," she said, flushing all over her pretty face, "but I couldn't help it You didn't hoar mo come in, and-something you said made me wait, and so l- l overheard. Oh, pleaso don't think me a-a hen? pecker!" she added hurriedly. "But when you said that about taking warn ing by Harry, and not getting mar ried it-it wasn't in human nature not to listen. I've been thoughtless and selfish. It's done me good to hear the truth. Won't you shake hands?" Ten minutes kiter, when Harry Mow. bray carno home, ho was amazed to find that his wife had set her heart on his singing at the Jackdaw's Smoker, and when she insisted cn his. spending tho entire following evening at the club it dawned upon him that something extraordinary had hap pened. WEST POINT AND ITS EF.GINNING. How Thio Strategic Place Waa Occu pied In the Revolution. Tho antiquity of Fort Putnam, at tho West Point Military academy, has been a question of dispute tho last few days, but it will probably soon be righted, and its proposed restoration to its original condition, or something like it, will bc carried out. How thc military academy came into being, and various other fae'.s about it, arc of in terest to every loyal American. The tract of land owned by the govern ment at West Point contains 2105 acres, and was first settled in May, 1723. The greater part of (his area was purchased from Stephen Mooro on September 10, 1790. for $11,085 The smaller and southerly portion was bought from Oliver Gridley on May 13, 1824, for $10,000. On March 2, 1826, the State of New York ceded jurisdic tion over that part of tho property on which thc principal edifices connected wich the institution stand, and only "reserved the right to execute any pro cess, civil or criminal, wherein the real or personal property of the United States was affected " The importance of West Point in the Revolution was due to its com mand of. the Hudson river, then the tho"oughfare tor freight and passenger traffic between the seaboard and the interior. Early in 1775 the pro vincial congress, pursuant to thc wish es of the continental congress, re solved to fortify the highlands, and sent commissioners, accompanied by Colonel Bernard Romans, with 24 men, to execute its nlans. Romans was a willful choleric Hollander, an engineer by profession and au employe of tho British Crown. He constructed the fortifications on Constitution island (then Martelaed's Rock), but in such an unscientific manner as to invite the strictures of thc most capable ex perts of his own profession. For this reason, and also because of a report by a special commission of inspection, made to congress on November 23, 1775, that the words could bc assailed from tho. higher ground across the river without any danger to the enemy, it was planned to occupy and fortify West Point, but the proposition was sago of the Highlands temporarily fell into tlie hands of the enemy." A?or the British had abandoned the High lands in August, 1777, Generals Put nam and James Clinton were detailed to supervise the reconstruction of the fortresses, and on July 2o, 1779, thc headquarters of the commander-in chief were transferred to West Point. It was here t:.at General Washington issued, among his "many and pointed orders" ono "against that unnecessary and abominable custom of swearing." West Point had cost $3,000,000, in addition to three years of labor by the local force, and was accounted the "American Gibraltar."-New York Tribune. PEARLS OF THOUGHT. Flattery gilds thc goose it intends to kill. Gold will provoke a gangrene In the heart. Good cheer is the heart's constant springtide. The bitterest herbs may give thc best honey. Patience is a good protection against provocation. Fortune's caresr.es oft becomes fol ly's culture. Bitter bread is sweeter than pois oned honey. A full soul seldom follows an over fed stomach. Forbearance is always more heroic than fighting. A difficulty does not furnish a rea son for denial. Every task undone means some truth uuknown. The finest fabrics may be woven out of cross purposes.-Ram's Horn. 1 Action cf Fruit in Ices. Observations made in several bac teriological laboratories have lately been published, in which a claim is made that some fruit Juices, more par ticularly lemon juice, nave power to render inactive the bacillus of typhoid fever. The exact method of investiga tion is not detailed in the literature at hand, but it is worth noting at the outset that the general restraining ef fect of acids upon beneficial develop ment has been long known, as has also the fact that several of the so-called vegetable acids, though commonly sup posed to be of feeble chemical power, are really very active. The obs'erved feebleness is due to the high dilution in which they commonly occur. Citric acid in concentrated form is a strong acid. General adoption of the view j that some fruit juices can render harmless articles ol' food cr drink con taminated with tho typhoid germ should only follow much careful inves tigation, a"d even if the decision is favorable, it will possibly be found that some cf the common minora' acids will answer the same purpose Philadelphia Medical Journal.

Jack Tar is notoriously improvident, and most of our naval seamen, when they get ashore, spend their money, be it moro or loss with a lavish hand. Shore leave ls limited to twenty-four hours, but In that brief time the un restrained sailor manages to run through about all the cash he carnes with him. He plunges into a whirl of dissipation and is oftentimes cheated or robbed of a good share of his ready gj^o?s?^.but j r^c^ntaTo of the latter ls also apt to go for ?!!!yil!tif?%!&&&& pens to strike hin almost childish fancy. Mascots are the seafarer's de light, and whatever he may come across which seems to him to have a talismanic property he Is bound to buy lt if be can. Hence, when the "pier jumpers" as those on shore leave arc technically called, return in well-filled barges to the ship and under direction of the master-at-arms climb up on deck they are likely to bring with them a miscellaneous collection of goats, dogs, parrots, monkeys, roosters, etc. Ono sailor on the Kearsargc, either in or out of his sens?e at the time, went so far as to purchase as a mascot a colored baby from its mother for the sum of forty cents and came aboard with it in his arms. Ho was not al lowed to retain it, however, and fie child was eventually restored to .ie repentant and hysterical parent. How many of the mascots may bc kept on board lies within the discre tion of the captain. A liberal policy is pursued in this matter. But mani festly there is a limit to thc number of those that can be accommodated. The surplus is sent ashore without de lay. When the returned "pier Jump ers" are lined up while the ship's writer calls thc roll to discover the laggards, it is one of thc most per plexing duties of the dock to decide what dumb creatures may or may not be added to the vessel's menagerie. If the vessel Is on her way homeward from the tropics she usually carries a large variety of living presents for the home friends of the sailors. But these are only temporary tenants of the hold and would not be permitted to remain on board long.-Leslio's Weekly. THE BURGLAR'S LAMENT. Missionary-I hope that you will watch yourself hereafter.

There is no better spring tonic, and I have used about all of them. Catarrh in Spring. Thc spring is the best time to treat ca tarrh. Nature renews herself every spring.
