A LOVE STORY,
1JY A UIU.K.W n.l.i; AUTHOR.
From Tho Ureouvillo Mountaineer.
"Ob, Aunt, Eleanor, l am bo ?lud to
bo bare with you, and to see something
real again. 1 am very tired ol my lifo.
It all seems suoh a make*believe and
bbam. I am tired of ball? anil recep
tions, where evt n tho smiles are false,
unU where the words and dresses are
all *ot to the one same tune ol lixcil rub s
and etiquette. So, Auutie, I left it all,
and came away l j you, where I could
bear tho crickets Bing, and the uiu-io
of the (rugs, and learn contentment
from looking into your dear old peace
ful face.''
Aunt Eleamor looked up from her
knitting into the fair faceol tho young
girl; it was a very young and lovely
face to be saying such tilings. Eclioiu
but leaning far buck in the big arm
chair, with her arm.-, stretched above
her bpad, gazing into the lire, and her |
dark brown eyes looked into the? coals
with a deep, wistful longing, as if
searching mi something In their glow
ing depths.
" Aunt Eleanor, I ought to bo happy.
I havo all the world culls happiness,
wcaltn und beauty, but my money has
never brought ino any real love. Of
course, 1 know many men who call
themselves iny lovers, but 1 do not
waut a few honeyed worus, clothed in
tho (ashlot! Ol the day, one or two st.lt
drives in tho park, and then a mar
riage, whero tue heart is untouched
by any thought of real love, tho toul
unshaken by deep passion ; without
.impulse, and us cold, hare and unre
sponsive as tho heaps of gold and silver
wedding presents, 1 mean lovo that
caunot ho bought. Love that links
soul to Beul, tout time und absence can
not change. A lovo that will saorllloe
itself, thut ennobles and colors ail in
lifo, and in suffering and adversity
grows Btronger. A tove that in its
purity aod depth lifts us higher than
mere, common earthly passions. Lovo
that malus mon do great and nohlo
things, and makes women true and
tender. A heart that sees no weak
ness in loving, and linds its greatest
happiness in being loved. Oh, Aunt
Eleanor, some onJ fashion love. D.j
you think there is any left in the wend,
and thut I can lind It? lias Cupid lot
his little darts yet dull, or is the heart
of the world so hard und crusted over
with egotism, ami love of gold that bis
arrows all bouud back and uo not leave
even a a*ark."
Felloia stretched out her arms with
a passionate gesture, and looked nr.
with eager, questioning eyes. Aunt
Eleanor laid Qowu her knitting, und u
faint color came into her out face m
she said, "Fay, dear, I shall tell you u
Btory. 1 have never told it to many
(or it is sacred, but Fay, it will tell yoi
of a love that is as true and undying a:
that you sir. .t!< of."
Sue unlocked u cabinet, and trot
from it a small,' Id, hair-covered trunk
tho very looK of which told that n
held some sacred memory. Aun
Eleanor's eyes had a tender light, am
her hands trembled as she nelu thi
dear relies of her life. ft was hki
lifting the curtain of the past whei
she raited the lid. There was a fain
musty odor, hut it was a sweet.smell U
her, lor it bi ought with It a rush of font
memories. There was a curious col
lection of tilings : worthless thej
looked, and yet no gold could havi
bought them. There were a few faded
yellow tetters, a whitocrosa all tatter
ed and torn ; a badge of honor of some
kind, wliicli had been torn by a buliet
and also tvso or three old bras;
cadet buttons. " These things wil
tell the story of my life," said Aun
Eleanor, and she took up an old da
guerreotype with a golden curl pinuet
in the case, Tue picture was so din
that you could scarcely see tho uutlim
of tho face.
"Ah, Fay, when that was taken lift
was sweet and hopc9 were great. M;
white hair was onCG those goldci
clustering curls in tho picture. Ar
thur carried It for thirty years in hi
breast, far away to Ludiu und Egy pt lj
took it with him.
" Arthur and I loved each othoi
dearly, but he was only a private ii
the <,.> leen's army, and I wus an oruhai
and lived with my uncle. Arthur an.
1 were very young and full of hope
und meant to marry as soon as ho wa
able.
"Iiis regiment was sent to India
Tho parting nearly broke our hearts
but we siiid good-bye b.-avcly. 1 gavi
Arthur this white cross. Ho said hi
would always wear it next his heart
and he cut ttT ihu right arm of th?
cross, ai d gave it to iuc to keep, as 1
sign that nothing but death shoul.
keep him from bringing his cross bact
to mo to bj united, and we promised t<
be true, and never to doubt each othei
whatever happened.
"Arthur bad not been gono tw<
months when my uncle died, and I wa:
left alone. 1 uo not know what woult
have become of me hut for an Anieri
can ..... \ who was a frierd of mine, i
had a good education, so 1 came witl
her to tnis country as a governess in
your grandmother's family. 1 though!
that 1 bhoulil never see Arthur again,
so I wrote to him to tell bun where
was going, f.nd to say good-bye.
"My lite in this country was as happy
as I could expect. Your people were
vory kind to mo. I soon became Jike
one of the family, anil my pupils learn
ed to call mo aunt, but with all this I
was sometimes very lonely. 1 could
only hear from Arthur very seldom,
but his letters wore full of unohanglog
lovo and hope ; they wure noulo, orave
letters, and helped 1110 to bo true and
bear my lifo.
'"Eight years passed, and no thought
of another man had entered iny lifo.
Then there came a long unbroken
silence, and my letters to Arthu'- were
unanswered. I never doubted him
tbougli this uncertainty was cruel, but
I kept saying to myself, -tio is not
dead, and hu will come back.'
" Horo tho tenor of my story
changes. Of this part I do not liko to
speak, and I shudder when I think
how near it came leaving u dark blot
upon my life, but I shall tell it all for
there is no shame in being tempted,
It is only tboae wounn who havo been
thrust Into a fiery furnace, and come
out unhurt who can Bympathlz-J with
'otherb in temptation. Thoso women
who look down, from a high pedestal
of untried virtue and untemptcd purity
with scorn upon thoir leas protected
sisters do not understand. It is no
honor to bo good whero thcro is no
temptation.
"We left America that summer to
travel about. While wo woro in
Venice my health failed, so tlioy took
tho olii Id ion to I'aris, and left me to rest
and recover. It wus then that I met
Antoine Jtuchietti. Ho was a great
doctor, and had ail tho deep passionatu
nature of tho true Vonitian, and tho
magnetiam of thoso trrcat black eyes
BOemod to look Into my vory thoughts.
Iil>3 faco and figure might boon mo
doled from some Greek god. Ah, he
was a vory Faust, and I wa? vory near
tho fate of Marguerite He loved mo
with juat tho sumo unholy and unruly
passion. Ho saw no ob?tucles in his
patb, and ho had been used to grasping
ids object with a firm, sure hand, not
loosing his hold until he had won the
very soul and bruised the heart I was
very lonely and mtaorab.u.and it seemed
so long aince I had hoard of Arthur. I
saw tho Doctor every day, and I folt
that ho was gaining an Influence ov .r
mo that 1 could not throw off. It was
liko a miid that growa denser and
thicker. Though lie loved me well, I ,
knew that a marrlago with a simplo
English goverbess vas far from bis
thoughts, and below his ambition.
"I shall pass on briefly to one even- j
ing when my s>oul was shaken like an ,
. aapen leaf. I wont to an old cburcb to 1
I think it all over. It was my last
'chance, for Aqtolno was coming to ?
meet mo there. Insldo the church It
Was very still, und the crimson light
from the webtorn window fell full upon
the great white altar eroep. It re
minded me of tho whito cross I hail
givcu Arthur. Should 1 bo tho one

my arm unworthy to bo joined to tho
Other V Whore was Artnur ; was hit)
orOBS btlll unsullied and waiting for
tnlneV Wan Arthur dead, or hud ho
forgotten me ? It was growing very
dark; only the white cross stood out
boldly In tho dim light. 1 heard boiho
ouo coming. Arthur may be dead ; 1
whispered, ' but ho In not unfaithful,
aud if lie is alivo ho will come back to
me.' My heart was beating wildly, for
I Knew thatAntoino was in tho church.
I looked toward tho altur, tho last
crimson ray lingered on tho cross ; it
Boomed to reach higher and higher^
and to stand out stronger and clearer
Id the darkness. I rushed blindly
toward it, past the altar, through an
other door, aud so out into the fading
I light.
I "That night I left Venice, and went
to join tho family at l'arls."
* # # * * *
" We had spent four years in travel.
When we returned to America 1 learn
ed that Arthur hud been there to lind
mo, aud hearing that I had gono to
Kugland, ho had started right away to
follow me. Our ships had passod each
other.
"Something like dark despair came
over iuo. Fate seemed cruel. The
one faint hope that anchored mo to life J
was gono. .tow was I ever to lind him,
or to let him know where 1 was ? A!- |
though my friends helped me, all our j
?. Horts were in vain.
"1 took up my Vi to again, and tried
to go on bravely. Years passed. My
pupils were grown now, and needed
mo no longer; so I catno to It ? to
livo, aud teach school. I was past
fony ; my youth was gono; my hair
was turning very gray, but I thought
of Arthur still, and kept on saying.
' If he is alive he will lind me out.' 1
Btlll thought of him as my young lovor.
I eould not bear to think of his brown
curls as turned to gr- y, or those big
blue eyos with a haggard look of ago
and sadness.
" Fay, my story is drawing to a close
One evening 1 was sitting at tho wiu
dow watching the setting sun, when 1
saw an old man coming toward me !
out of tho gold and crimson light of
the sun-sot ho seemed to come. As ho
came on very slowly, I saw that ono
sluove of his coat hung loose and limp,
and that ho leaned upon a stick. He
come very near and stopped, and as he
rahed his eyes, O, my Ood, 1 saw that
it was Arthur Gray bod.
? " A littlo later when 1 smoothed
back the grey locks from his white
brow, and looked at tho empty coat
sleeve, 1 burst into a Hood of bitter
tears, it reminded mo of our white
cross and tho missing arm. Could wo
be tho same two who had parted so
young and hopeful. But when wo
looked into each other's eyes, we kuew
that we had passed our 'rough places'
and temptations. Wu had t-tood tho
I I storm, and loved each other still, with
t, a love that had suffered and grown
[ I stronger and deeper, and now in the
j i sun-set of our lives there had sprung
. up in us tho glowing embers of our
, youthful lovo. Liko tbo setting sun
t, gathers all its many scattered beams
} ' together into ono last great crimson
[ : ray that deepens and colors all around
. it in mellow light, and lasts long into
, ! the calm, cool twilight.
i I " We were married that night. But
i Arthur was failing fast. His woundc
I ! had been severe. I nursed him tend
3 erly, until at last there came a daj
\ I when I was left ulouo.
jj " One more long, lonely waiting, but
1 j there is a sure meeting for us. Now it
I I is Arthur who is waiting for mo, and
. i in heaven our lovo will be unchanged
I '? and everlasting."
Aunt K eanor closed the little trunk
that held her earthly treasures. Feliolt
was crying gently, but there was a look
in her dark eyes that showed thai
, , there was no use to ask her what she
\ ! thought of love now, so Aunt F.lcanoi
stole ijuietly away.
ri ! Felicia gazed long into tho dyinfj
? embers. A cricket began to chirp
and roused her from her reverie. Slu
' rose and went over to the window, ant
tl 1 as she looked across tho garden, slu
j Bighed and whispered, "I wonder if I
j eould lovo like that," for she saw Aunl
Fleanor kneeiing at Arthur's grave.
GOOD LIVING DESIRED.
One of tho commonest and one ol
3 I the worst mistakes on the farm is (he
I fnnuru to look upon comfortable and
j wholesome living as a thing as much,
t ! if not more to he desired, than making
11 money. Farming in this country i*
graduilly getting away from its old
wo kings, says Tin Tri-Slale Farmer,
A generation or two ago, a period, by
the way, that is often referred to aa
the uaood old times." farming was
looked upon primarily as a way to
make u living. Almost everything
consumed upon the farm was made
I hero, of both food and clothing, and
largely, too, the carpets, and house
hold furniture. The expenditures for
all these things were extremely small
and yet, people on the farm lived in
the greatest comfort, enjoyed the most
I'ObUet health ami though die prices of
farm products were very low, almost
all of them made some money. More
Over, though fanning was then in no
sense a speculative enterprise, and
?hough then land was to he had fi'CO,
lo a larger extent than now, land
values were higher higher and for tho
purpose of making loans I arms were
considered the best security that could
he offered. Of course, we cannot now
go hack It) primitive methods in every
respect. It will not pay to weave
cloth ami do many ether tilings that
our grandfathers did; hut we could
with gnat prolit to oun.elves raise al
most everything wc cat and give more
altontio i tt> doiug it than in raising
what is known as the "money crop."
And whal is to lie specially considered
is tht! fact that 'flic farmer who does so
will seldom ever come lo he the victim
of debt, the worst slavery on earth.
A few farmers growing a {'specialty"
and buying everything for homo con
sumption succeed ami tlo well; but us a
rule, the '?average farmer" Who farms
for a Mving gets far more satisfaction
oui of lifo than the one crop man. Now
at the beginning of a new year is a good
lime to make a test of this.

3111ARP ON THE HISTORY OF INDIANS,
l'HK OBBBKS ANI> THE CHIBRO
K.ISIC8.
fhu Couittdiip of John Ridge?While
Attending u ?Mission School He
Fell in Love with u Beautiful White
Glrl*and Married Her.
Fragmente of Indian history have ac
cumulated upon mo of late and as they
concern tho Ureoks aud (Jhorokees and
are of a romuutic character, I am con
strained to record them. These two
tribes aro our Indians and make up
quite a chapter in tho history of
Georgia, Alabama and East Tennessee.
North Georgia was especially the home
of the Cnerokoes, lor their chiefs
lived near Korneas far back as we have
their history, aud tho Crooks, or Mus
coge?> a? they aro more properly
called, lived south of tho Tullupoosa
river. Thoso tribes are not to he class
ed with savages, for they wore of t
higher grade, and but for the greed of
tho white inuu would uo doubt have
continued to advance in civilization
and refinement under tho lead of such
chiefs as Hoss, Kidgo, Boudiuot and
Mclntosh.
Everybody Is familiar with tho story
of Pooabootas.
Longfellow wroto a beautiful story
about Hiawatha and William E. Rich
ards peuuod several pretty legends
about the Indian girls of Tallulah falls,
and so I will pen the story of John
Kidgo ?and Boudiuot as given to me.
This story was sent to mo by Mrs. Ellen
M. Gibhs, of Crystal Lake, III. Her
mother, Mrs. Taylor, who died in 1878,
wrote this romantic sketcli in 1877,
when she was seventy-six years of age,
and left it for her children, who had
oftcu heard her repeat it. By some
strange coincidence 1 have recently re
ceived a leaer from a lady, Mis. Vir
ginia Williams, of Biooinhold Fla.,
giving tie anoestry of John Hoss, whose
I grandfatl ??? was a Scotch refugee,
named MoDonald. The writer, Mr
Williams, traces her llucugo back to
the sumo McDonald tree. Her mother
was a daughter ol William Day, who
married Agnos McDonald. Mrs. Wil
liams would like to leuru moro about
Kosa und bis parents and hopes this
publication may attract the attention
of some ouo who can inform hor.
And now comes a marked copy of a
Now York paper called Sabbath Read
ing, In which .John Kosa, a son of the
old chief, appeals for preachers and
teaohera to come out to tho Cherokee
nation and help to educate and train
the children in tho Christian faith, and
especially to teach them in their Sun
day schools. This appeal is dated De
cember, 1807, and Mr. Kiss's address
is No. 101 Gold street, Now York.
And hero is Tho Vinlta Leader, an
able paper published in tho nation, and
contains General Andrew Jaokson's
letter to tho Cherokee chiefs, written
in 1835, and which urges and entreats
them to accept tho terms of the treaty
and move at once to the territory as
signed to them.
And almost by tho same mail comes
an interesting and beautifully written
sketch of tho present condit.on of the
Muscogces (or Creeks.) It was written
by Mr. W. W. Ramsay, of Maryvllle,
Mo., a gifted and scholarly geutli man
who is deeply interested iu Indian
affairs. Other fragments have come to
me and if I do not abridge and compile
and have them published in your pa
per, much valuable history of these
Indians will be forever lost.
But to tho story ?
,-ln 1S17 a foreign mission school was
established at Cornwall, Gonn. It was
a charity school for Indians mainly,
though there were some white pupils
there and some defrayed their own ex
penses. Students from several Indian
tribes were there to acquire tho Eng
lish language and a rudimentary edu
cation. Somo whito pupils also ac
quired the Indian language und wert
out as missionaries to tho tribes. Be
sides the Chippewas and Choctaws and
Cherokee?., T remember there were two
from the Sandwich islands.
'?Mr. Diggett was the lirst principal
of the school and Mr. Andrews the last.
Every May there was a public exhibi
tion and the Indian boys spoko on the
stage, lirst in their own language and
then in ours. They were genteel and
graceful in thoir oratory. They sang
songs in their native tongue, all wav
ing their hands in harmony with tho
music. They were never allowed to go
beyond tho limits O* into people's
houses without invitation. When they
visited us wo iald aside our work and
entertained them.
"Among these students was a Chero
kee youth named John Kidgo, tho son
of a chief?a very noble young man, of
lino form and feature and a perfect
gentloman in his manners and deport
ment. For two years he was afllioted
With a hip disease. While be boarded
at Mr. North rup's and Mrs. Northrup
had the care of him, sometimes her
daughter Sarah, a sweot and lovely
girl, waited upon him One day Dr.
Could, who was my cousin, said to Mr.
Northrup: 'John i.-. about well. He
has no physical disease about him and
needs no more medicine, but ho is in
trouble and you had better tlnd out
what is the matter.'
"That afternoon while Surah was
away bor mother took her knitting
and went to sit and talk with John.
While thero sho took notico of his mel
ancholy and bogged him to tell her
what troubled him so much of luto.
At li^at ho denied having any sorrow,
but being pressed told her that he
loved Sarah and knew that bo could
never marry hor, for ho was an Indiun.
'Have you ever mentioned it to Sarah?'
sho asked. 'No,' said ho, 'I dare not,
but hew could I help loving hor?'
"W..jn Sarah camo home her mother
said: 'Sarah, do you love John Ridge?'
'Yes, I do, mother,' sho said. Then
came tho family trouble. Mr. North
rup at once took Sarah to her grand
parents In New Haven and begged
thorn to wean Sarah from her Indian
lover?to give parties and introduce
her to nice young men, which they did,
but it was all in vain. She remained
thero three months and seemed to be
pining away in silent grief. Her
parents became alarmed and brought
her homo. What was to bo done, for
It would bo an awfu! thing for Sarah to
marry him. As a last rosort Mr.
Northrup told John Kidgo to go borne
and stay two years, and if ho got on
tlroly well he might com3 back and
marry Sarah. Ho did so and when the
time was out came back accompanied
by hia father, Major Kidgo, the chief
of tho Chorokoes. Thoy traveled in
princely stylo and wero handsomely
dressed. I romembor that Major
Kidgo's coat was trimmed with gold
lace.
"John and Sarah wero married and
wont to the Chorokoo nation to llvo,
but riot li^ missionaries, for John had
to visit Washington qulto often to
transact business for tho trlbo. Sarah
had sorvants to wait upon hor and llvod
like a princess in a large two-story I
dwelling.
"Nnt long aftor thlB tho little towr. of
Cornwall had another tumult and groat |
excltoment camo into its social life.
Thoro waa fover hoat when it was an
nounced that Ellas Boudinot, who was
John Kidg<*'s cousin, waa about to 1
marry Harriot Gould, tho fatreat and
belt oducatod girl in all that region.
She was the nearest perfection of any
girl I ever know. Sho was tho Idol of
the family. Her brothor6 and aialora
had all married into tho fincat famlliea
In the country and all lived woll.
Kindred came from neighboring towns
to Intercede with Harriot. Ministers
onlled and nleadod, but all in vain.
She declared sho would marry him and
go with him to hie peoplo and bo a 1
missionary.
"Harriet's greatest distress was tho
meeting with her brother Stepben.
who was nearest her age and devoted '
\ > her. She feared it would break hi*
leii'-t. When he came ehe burst into
tears 'and refused to meet him. He
vent away and did not attend the wed
ling, but after it was over be came, !
ind tbo next morning waited upon
: be in at breakfast und scorned in a
measure reconciled. Hut be could not
joo thoiu married. I mado Harriet's
wedding nullit und buw them married.
Houdinot was a very handsome man.
Ho had a charming voice and waa a
splendid ainger. Ho wua a very bravo
and fearless man, for the roughs of the
town had aworn that ho should never
eomo Into it alive, und if ho did, ho
should never go out ulivo, but they
wero awed by bia presence.
"Aa a result, however, of theso two
marriages tho Cornwall mission school
was discontinued.
"Houdinot and his wifo went to the
Cherokee nation, where two children
wero born to them. Colonel Could I
visited them there and was well pleas
ed with their surroundings, for they
lived near by to S.irah Ridge and their
children were all happy together and
both families had all the comforts of
life and many of its luxuries. The two
Cornwall girls had chosen most excel
lent husbands and had not regretted
their oboloe.
"Houdinot taught school awhile at
Now Kchota and published an Indian
newspaper (Now Kohota Is near Cal
boun, in Gordon county.) After the
removal to tbo territory, in lSl^, Ridge
and Houdinot lived about a mile i. put.
Sarah had three children and Harriet
six, but died in giving birth to the last.
Houdinot then went to Vermont and
married Harriett's cousin and she
went to the territory with him. After
hia assassination, she returned to Corn-1
wall und the obildren wont with her
and worn distributed among their
mother's kindred and were highly cdu
eated aud mingled in social equality
with the svhlto people."
The remainder of the narrative as
written by Mrs. Tay'or and copied for
mo by Mrs. Oibbs relates lo tho story
i of the assassination of Major Kidge
I and John Kidge and Hlias Houdinot, of
which 1 have told your readera in a
former letter and will not repeat it
now. Uoudlnot'd real Indian name

THE PirOUFOBK INCIDENT.
-
A Liberal Kstiniato of Senator Till
man's Abilities ami Accomplish*
meats ? ii Is lotlucnce Among (lie
Other Senators.
A Washington correspondent thus
describes Senator Til I man, of South
Carolina, and gives an estimate of his
position in the public service :
Senator Tillman a few years ago
stood on an Improvised platform in tho
rotunda of a great Denver hotel. Tho
six-storied galleries that rose from tho
marble lloor wero literally jaintnod
with an enthusiastic audience, as was
the lloor below. The incident then oc
curring was us unique as the public
man thoao thousands had swarmed to
aeo ami hear. A handsome girl, clad
in a frock of red, white and blue
stock by the stalwart man in black,
over whose presence all were snouting.
Tho girl held a farm implement in her
hand. It was a curious article for that
scene, .and its material was as notable.
Tho tyuea were of solid silver, Colo
rado's production. A rim of gold con
nected it with a polished oaken handle.
"Sixteen to one" was thus embodied.
As tho Senator received this signifi
cant gift?"Tiilman'a pitchfork," as
tho crowd called it?he shouted so that
all heard his words above the war of
cheers, "1 will use it there, I promise
you." "There" meant in tho United
States Senate, and he has kept hta
word.
Senator Tillman is as elTectivo and
1 unique a man as that chamber has
ever seen, and sinco the civil war closed
It has had l'arson Hrowulow, Uen.
"Hilly" Malone, "Hen" Hill, Kiddlc
berger and genial "Joe" Hlackburn
among its members. The South Caro
linian comes of the l'almetto stock that
producod Marlon and Sumpter, as well
us John C. Calhoun. Ho is a thorough
and woi thy representatives ol that in
1 dlvldualized, brainy, courageous btate
1 hood clan that smacks of tho soil, from
which he antl they have sprung. The
ex-Covernor belongs to the small
planter class that tilled Hluc Kidge
Piedmont sands, and helped to make a
white man's country thereof. Ho has
their characteristics to the full, and

A VISIT AMONG THE ADVJBN?
TIST8.
Minnie P. Knotts in Nebraska Farmer.
At College View, a village near the
suburbs ol Lincoln, Neb., ia one of
the fow iuaiitutioiiH of its kind in tho
rnitcn States. It ia the settlement
and college of the "Seven-day Advcn
tista, and is the only school of its kind
between Battle Creek, Mich., and Cali
fornia.
The main objects of iutcrcat iu the
village arc the sanitarium, a branch of
i the Battle Creek natitutiou, the sani
tarium bakery and the college. Upon
entering the sanitarium the fust thing
that impresses one is the neatness and
I clean ucsa of the place. Tho doctois
in cliargo aio cordial, aud will gladly
allow one over tho building.
On the ground floor ia situated the
parlors consultation room, private
ofllco, business oflicc, dining room and
kitchen. On the second lloor arc the
sleeping and surgical roo.ns. The
basement ia occupied with bath rOOniS;
I one fide for incu and the other for WO*
I men. Trained alien- ants, dressed in
suits like those worn for bathing, are
busy giving baths of all kinds. Through
the kindness of Dr. Cleveland, the
lady physician, the writer can say from
experience, that after an electric bath
und massage, one comes forth feeling
as fresh as a May day.
In the basement, with other appa
ratus forgiving the various treatments,
is a queer looking cabinet or elosct.
Although it occupied a humble corner,
it is something that the sanitarium is
proud of, for it is something new. It
is where they give the electric light
bath. The inside of the cabinet is not
as plain looking as the outside. When
the door is thrown open one sees a
pretty sight. The inside of the cabi
net is lined with heavy plate mirrois
and has rows of incandescent lights
running up and down its sides.
When a patient needs an electric
lig'it bath lie is placed in this cab;
on a stool, and the lights turned ou.
The intense heat of the lights, intensi
fied by the reflection from the mirrors,
has the patient in a perspiration in a
few minutes. This is used as a new
and more saclisfactory method of get
ting the results that aic derived from
a Turkish bath. Iis principal advan
tage over the old way lies in the fuel
that there can he a division made in
the cabinet so that the patient's head
may be outside, breathing the air of
normal temperature, if so desired,
while the body is undergoing the heal
ing process.
Although a general sanitarium, the
majority of patients are suffering from
dyspepsia, rheumatism and nervous
troubles, or arc sickly women. The
proper applications oi water, heat,
electricity, and massage, together with
careful diet, seems to soon make them
well. To be sure that hygenic prin
ciples of diet arc followed, a sanita
rium bakery was started, not only to
supply College View with pure food,
but to place it within t lie reach of every
one.
The bakery is the next place of in
terest. Here one is met in the sales
room by the head bak< r in wlii'e apron,
Cl p and jacket. He Is very willing to
show visitors over the bakery, and
leads the way into the baking room.
Three or four more bakeis, all atti-ed
as their leader, are attending to the
work. Tho first thing the baker says
is that only llie best of butter is used
for shortening in nil the baring which
is largely composed of different kinds
of crackers.
By this time the large patent mixer
i<2 reached. It is a box-like affair that
will hold three barrels. The bottom
is cylindrical and in the center are re
volving blades, something on the same
principle as the crank churn, into
this is placed the butter, sugar, Hour
and other ingredients for the crackers.
The machinery is started and the cen
ter piece begins to revolve, thoroughly
mixing the dough, in a few minutes
it is taken out and put through rollers,
which answer f. r the common rolling
pin. Fr m here the dough is taken to
the cracker macl ine, whore it is again
fed into rollers and as it passes along
on tlie opposite side is cut and stamped
at the same lime.
When a number of crackers have
been cut, a baker slides a "peel" or
large wooden paddle under thorn and
transfers them to the oven Hour. By
tlie time he returns another paddle full
is ready. These he takes to the oven
and by pulling a lever sends the rotary
floor around und again deposits the
crackers. This is continued till 1,000
crackers, all that th ? ovens will hold at
once, arc baking.
The process had been shown, so next
camo the productions. There were
lifteen different kinds of crackers, in
cluding oat meal, graham, rye and
fruit, all made tlie object of getting
the most in urishmont in the least pace.
The fruit crackers were particularly
agreeable to the taste. They arc made
of two layers of delicious dough with
imported Sultana raiaius baked be
tween.
Besides the crackers were s >mc giain
foods, the most noticablc being gran
ola, gluten wafers and grain coffee.
There were also some different kinds
of food made from DUls, which were
extremely palatable as well as nutri
tious. They arc not niado at tho
bakery, owing to a hick of machinery,
but are sent from Battle Creek, Mich.
Upon being asked if the general
public knew of and appreciated these
health feods, the baker said that they
had shipped as much as three tons a
week and had sent go ids into every
State. :n the Union, He added, laugh
ing, "We haue never sent any to Klon
dike yet, but there was a gentleman
here the oilier day who was going
there and be bought sonic goods to
take along. Wo may get an order
from him vet.''
IiV tho time the bakery bad been in
spected, dinner was ready at the
"home," or where the students hoard,
who do not live in the village. This
"home," as it is called is self-support
ing. The Students do all the work,
only one head cook nud matron being
lured. Every student, rich or poor, is
required to pay a certain sum a month
and two hours work a day for his
schooling. Tlio matron makes tbo
assignment of work, and although the
"family" consists of nearly two hun
dred, there was less waste of Inno and
commotion than in tbo ordinary family
of seven or eight.
Tho most noticeable fenturo was tbo
Penning of the tables. Kaeh person
[tiled up his own dishes nnd passed
hem to ono of two students, whcao
luty it was to tnkc them to tho kitchen.
! u this way all the tables woro cleared
n about eight minutes. Thus the slu
lents aro not only gelling a book edu
cation, but are being taught tho best
irincipha of practical lifo, and espe
lially the fact that a little work from
ach means tho accomplishing of a
;reat amount.
?It may not no anown to tbo people
enerally that tho production of boot
ugar is a million tons more annually
bin from sugar cane,
HOME-MADE PREPARATIONS I
FOR COUGHS AND COLDS
The present unseasonable, damp
weather, fruitful in colds, brings an
iuovliable deruaud for cough candy ,
and troches. Nearly all the excellent
cough candies ami troches of com
merce have once been made hy family
recipes. 11 was formerly the practice
of Dlany mothers to prepare a stock ol
these candies at the- begging of each '
winter. SI lining amber-tinted lo/.cnges
of whorollOUUd made at home or white
candies of Iceland moss soothed the
weary hours of chlUhcn who were shut
indoors with colds. Where one has
abundance of lime it certainly pays t?>
prepare tllCSQ candies at home, for only
a few confectioners make them as they
were prepared in the last generation.
Yet they arc easily made, and are
wholesome confections because of their
tonic powers. The herb has the ability,
when adm*nisleded in proper quantity,
lo excilo the How of perspiration.
To make whorchou id candy, put an
ounce of the dried herb in a pint of
boiling water. It may be bought at an
herb store or at almost any drug store.
It may also he easily gathered at the
biookside in summer and dried, for it
I is a familiar plant. Sir ail) oil' the in
fusion of whorohoutul und add n pound
of sugar to ovory half pint of the.
liquid, Boil tho syrup until ii threads,
and the thread pricks off brittle, when
bitten, and then pour it out on buttered
sheets of tin. When it Is partly cooled
crease it Into inch squares, and when
it is b ird break it into separate candies.
If these candies are too bitter for your
laste, lessen the amount of whorohound
a little.
Iceland moss makes an excellent
BOOI hing COUgh candy. Take live
cents worth of the lichen, soak it over
night and wash it repeatedly. 'Take it
out of tho last water and put it in a
thick porcelain-lined saucepan m plenty
of cold water, and let it slowly simmer
over the tire until the water is of a
thick starchy consistency. Add a
pound of sugar to half a pint of the
thickened water. Stir the syiup re
peatcdly until n drop forms a creamy
ball when rolled between the linger
and thumb. It musi be stirred lcpcat
edly or it will burn L'our it OUt on
buttered biscuit pans thai have sides,
I which will prevent the candy spread
ing in too thin a sheet, it should be
about half an inch thick.
The chief objection to a great many
cough candies of the shops is that they
contain morphine, and e\en raw opium,
in more or less quantity. There are
home popular COUgh candies which con
tain enough morphine to put to Bleep a
person who is easily affected by Ulis
drug. Especially is this so when the
candies are consumed without much
thought as to rc.?ults. Candies con
taining morphine arc certainly danger
ous for children to eat, and it is strange
that accidents do do not occur more
often, when confectioners handle such
i dangerous drugs.
?A formal duel with swords or pis
tols b is not been fought in this coun
try for a long time. The little town of
Algona, Iowa, now makes a bid for
notoriety in the lighting lino. Her
man Nicker and Albert Rahm, two
rivals in love, wont out a couple of
days ago, with seconds and surgeon,
a. d allot at each other with pistols.
Nicker is dead and Rihm la dying.
?The largest dog in the world is be
lieved to be Nero, owned by Wayne
Bailey, of Rutland, Va., lie weighs
nearly 300 pounds and measures six
and a half feet from tip to tip. Read
ers of Quo Vadis will agree that ho is
appropriately named,for if Mr. Sicnkio
wiec? is to be believed Nero was a
rather big dog in bis day.
?The eri of looking wise consti
tutes many an individual's claim to
respect.
Op**
Many men fool with sickness Ins
as n beat fools around n trap. A mat
doesn't like to own up that he is ill
He says "o, it amounts to nothing, i shal
be all right to-morrow." But he isn't al
right to-morrow; nor the next day. Prett*
soon the trap snaps to ; mid he has somi
serious disease fastened on him,
The only sensible course is to keep nwiv
from the trap, and not allow sickness to gel
any hold on you. It is a frightful ndstaki
to trifle with indigestion and bilious troub
les in the belief that they will cure them
selves. On the contrary thcydrag tliewholi
system down with them.
When the appetite and digestion are ir
regular it shows that the machinery of thi
body is out of order and is not doing it)
proper work; the blood-circulation is poorl]
supplied and is being gradually debase*
by bilious poisons.
The proper alterative for this condition ii
Dr. Pierce's Colden Medical Discovery. I
nets directly upon the digestive function
?and the liver; and enables the blood mat
Ing glands to supply an abundance of pun
blood, rich with the nutritious vital ele
merits which build up healthy flesh an<
enduring strength.
In all impoverished and run down condf
tions the ' Discovery" is far better thai
malt "extracts" or nauseating "etmt!
sions." It creates genuine pcrtuauen
Strength. It docs not make flabby fat lur
solid muscle. It is a perfect tonic for cor
pulent people.
A full account of its properties and mar
vclous effects in many so-called " hopeless'
cases, verified by the patients' own slg
natures, is given in one chapter of DoctOt
Pierce's thousand - page illustrated book
'The People's Common Sense Mcdica
Adviser." This splendid volume will hi
