Woman is said to be most fascinat ing at the age of 35; it was then that Cleopotra infatuated Mark Antony. Klla Wheeler Wilcox says a woman is at her best meutally and physically when she is 37 years old. Diana of Poictiers, the celebrated French beau ' ty, was lovely at 05, and Ninon do l'Kuelos, Marie S'.uart, Madame Re camier and du/.ens of other famous beauties have passed thc usual ago for loveliness, but thc average woman is more likely to bc passe at 30 or 35. While beautiful or fascinating any woman may marry, but oven if a beauty at 35 she will by then be so wedded to her life of independence and so inclined to view a change of state from a matter of fact standpoint l\i?\i uuiy a very brilliant match will attract her, and in considering the chances for this the odds are very small. Of men who marry, three-quarters ? are commonplace individuals with i small incomes. Only 10 per cent of the men who marry are handsome. Ten per cent Lave incomes exceeding $5,000 per year; 30 *. cent have in comes between $1,000 and $5,000, and 50 per cent are both homely and have annual incomes of less than $1,0C0.1 j From which one cannot wonder that I since statistics have come into fashion ; j matrimony has fot thinking women to . some extent gone out.

LOUISVILLE, KY., July 14.-Henry Raubold, Sr., of Glasgow, Ky., a well* known , distiller and retail dealer in whiskey, was expelled from the Pres byterian Church of America to-day by the Louisville Presbytery. He is charged with promoting intemperance, and is suspended from communion in the Church until he shall have thor oughly reformed and repented. Raubold has taken an appeal to the KentuuT. Synod, which body will meet in regular session this fall. He con tends that the Church has discrimi nated against him; as there are still men on its rolls here and elsewhere who sell whiskey. The action of the Presbytery is the result of a war that will be waged on distillers and whis key men by the Church. The distil lers'in -Kentucky are the largest con tributors . to the Church funds, and many are very angry and may .with draw. Raubold wanted to retire, but the Presbytery refused and expelled him.-Jv*?j York "Sun. j Persons troubled, with diarrhoea will be interested in the' experience of Mr. W. M.

When a man has no design but to speak plain truth he may say a great deal in a very narrow compass. Steele. All that a university or final highest school can de for us is still but what ihe first school began doing-teaoh us to read. We learn to read in various languages, in various sciences; wc learn the alphabet and letters of all manner of books.

Daniel Webster. Only a Hebrew Dream. CHAUTAUQUA, July 15. The rains have wet down the enthusiastic Chau tauqua crowds to-day in a way which would depopulate an ordinary summer resort, but there was no perceptible diminution in the size of the audien ces. The leoture of the day which ezoited most interest was given by Rabbi Moses J. Gries, of the Temple congregation, Cleveland, one of thc very prominent leaders among the re formed Hebrews. Thc subject of thc lecture was "The Legend of the Wan dering Jew." The analogy was drawn between the Hebrew over wandering because of the curse of Christ, and the Hebrew na tion popularly considered to be under the same curse. He said: "Do wo believe in the return to Palestine? Do we think that we are going to rebuild the Temple? It is a beautiful dream. It might inspire the heart of every Israelite. It might fili every man of Hebrew birth with dreams of the restoration of the old glory. But it is only a dream. Thc Hebrews throughout the world do not desire to return to Palestine. The Hebrews everywhere in lands where there is grr-ated to them freedom and peace, are citizens and patriots. "I make bold to say that in thin land of freedom there aro none more truly devoted to tho cause of freedom and justice than the Hebrews. They have experienced the persecution and injustice of the world; therefore, they love freedom and justioc more than other men. Max Nordau and Baron Hirsch and those who think that the solution of the Hebrew question is the return to Palestine, may understand the European mind, but they know very little concerning the sentiment of the Hebrews in this land of free dom." Concerning the exclusiveness of the Hebrews, he says: "The Hebrew will be for the He brew as long as the world is against the Hebrew and no longe.-. There is no unity pf th? Hebrew people, despite the idea ?hat there is a sort of He braic world conspiracy. The Hebrew will stand for the Hebrew until the day will oome for the Hebrew as for other human beings, when he shall have the same measure of liberty and justice which oughi, to be granted to all." -Pittsburg Dispatch. Our baby has been continually troubled with colic and cholera infan tum since his birth, and all that we eould do for him did cot seem to give more than temporary relief, until we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diorrhoe Remedy.

The incident was thc result ? sf one of President Cleveland's ve Loes. The President had vetoed an ( old woman's pension bill on the grounds that "she got drunk." "Once in San Francisco," said Sena tor Jones a- he discussed the veto on the Senate floor, "a man fell into a ( hole in the sidewalk and sued thc city for his injuries. Thc defense put in was that the man was drunk. This mightily inoensed the Court. 1 ' 'There is nothing in such a defense,' said thc Judge, savagely. 'A drunken niau bas as much right to have a perfect sidewalk as a sober man, and needs one worse.' ' That," concluded Sen ator .Jones, "is the way 1 feel about this old lady's pension." And he troted to pass it over thc veto. The pensiou went through. You can't cure dyspepsia by dieting.
