Fifty school children are said to have I been killed in one school house. A large hotel, full of guests, was blown down and only two persons are believed to have escaped. Despite the flood of rain which followed the gyration of the winds, the electric light ?4res Ignited the ruins everywhere and the destruction was Increased. The streets wore so littered with debris that the tlromen were unable to render assistance In any direction. I oven If the water works had not already been 1 destroyed by the cyclone.

At Sylvesto, two were drowned by tho overturning of a boat while being taken from the flood. The oondition of Seneca is pitiable.

At Seneca nine bodies have been recovered, but the names could not be ascertained: Indications now point to another storm, iu which even the damage to life and property will bo greater.

Queen Cnroln, of Saxony, 1ms hnil n, happy and uneventful life, but fate at; one time came very near turning her fortunes into an unhappy channel. It ! was at one time reported that she was I about to wed Napoleon III. There was foundation for the report, but happily for Caroln there was a slip in arrange* | ments, else the fate of Eugenie might have been hers, [J Cnrola was the only child of Gustavus !

Her father lived chiefly at Morawetz, ' QVEEX^ CAROI.A. in Moravia, and it was in this place that the little princess grew up. At twenty, however, she went to Dresden, beautiful city, where most of her life has been spent since. Once a year the now Queen makes nn expedition to Sigmnrliigen, within whose gates she finds many of her valued friends.

V murder ' Happiness Is not 'found by looking Every crown man bestows has When u sin shines, looking at It will kill. Indecision destroys more souls than love of evil. There are no vucutious in the devil's service. While the saloon door 13 open, every home is in danger. An opportunity to do good is a chance to walk with Christ. Some" shepherds give the most care to the fattest sheep. To shake hands with some people Is a call to repentance. When the suloon dies, the devil will put on deep mourning. Death will change our surroundings, but not our character. Let the wicked hold office, and tho devil will run the town. Religion pure and undented 1ms its name written on its face. The Lord's army never lost a battle because it was too small. God will not smile upon us while wo are frowning upon a brother. Live for Christ and you will soon know that he 1ms died for you. ^ The foot that Is pointed toward tho pit never gets to rest n minute. We will never find the cross heavy If 1 we take up the one God gives us. No man ran make a wrong investment who will give as God directs. The church member who never smiles j shouldn't talk very much in church. The greatest thing it is possible for us to do is the thing God wants done. Men drift toward the devil at first.

From the Courier and Free man, Potsdam, ' A', r. I St. Lawrenco County has a,national reputation mm the banner county of the Empire j State. Men reared In old St. Lawrence have ; 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 4 something that lends strength to manhood " there, and gives him the hone and sinew and the mental energy that brings success in Ufa ' The winds, first blowiug from the majostlo St. Lawrence River, and then from the pine 1 and spruce-covered mountains of the Adl- f ronoacks, give a richness to the atmosphere. r The outdoor life in this climate gives a man ^ a strong and sturdy physique, and his free and independent tnoae of living gives him a rugged character. John Henry Henderson wca a man that * enjoyed all these sturdy characteristics. He * was always a strong man and had never hail ' a fever or other serious illness.

" "? ?? ' w.,v ? ?* % ? *" ? forever wreck his health no t b.-ippin< as una end his days of usefulness and nellTitV. In conversation with a newspaper man, ? Mr. Hendersou told his story as follows: "I hail spent two years in Minnesota and c the same length of time in Oregon, hut the ^ summer of '94 found me hack at my old 8t. I Lawrence County home, in the town of Hop- t kinton, working industriously at cur|?entoring. My home and shop were on a farm, a and my incomo was derived from repairing ^ and building for my farmer neighbors. j It was on a hot July afternoon in the summer of '94 that one of my neighbors sent for me to oomeout to his hay field. He P had broken the reach to his wagon and * wanted it repaired at once so that he would t not be delayed in his haying. To fix the P wagon I had to have a long, heavy plank, ti 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 inlle and a half, but Mr. Henderson said: "I didn't think much ab?ut it; I had always boon strong and so I carried ' the plank Into the Held and mended the wagon. Before the afternoon was over I found that I had done wrong, that I had hurt my hack and had to lie down, while sharp pains darted through my back, head and neck. That was Ihe beginning of my trouble. I found that I couldn't straighten up alter that and I had to quit work. The pains troubled me almost constantly, and after sitting still a few moments I would have to get tip aud move around iu hopes of finding relief. I became useless and life became a burden to me, and I couldn't oven write so badly was I affected. "When I tried to work my nose would bleed freely aud I would be di37.y. Frequently I felt so badly that I had to lie down. Liniments were no good, and nothing gave relief until I began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. 1 had suffered nearly five months ^hen I read one of Dr. Williams' advertisements <ind bought "onto of the pills, which I comineneed using, and after I had used two boxes I felt belter in every way. Five boxes fr?'od 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-shoaldered ami with a ruddy complexion, notwithstanding his sixty-eight years of age. He worked steadily all the summer und fall and said that his health was much better than men of his age i?fln??rnllw .??-l- ? -- w n .?..J. tv|,.o OII1UIH mui mjf unnilll and appearance seem to be better than in years. My blood circulate* better, my hands n feel warm, and what is unusual iu u person C of my'age, my naila are soft and grow lilie 8 u young person's." Plnlc Fills wars truly a God-send to Mr. Henderson, and he thoroughly appreciates the fact and wants his iriends to know how wonderfully they have benefited him. lie now enjoys the vigor of youth, and hard work has no terrors for him. He sayH: *'I can work all day planiug and sawing with- a out feeling any of that lameness that used to bother me."

There is comfort ia he knowledge that so many forms ot ickncss are not due to any actual disase, but simply to a constipated condlion of the system, which the pleasant amily laxative, Syrupof Figs, prompty removes. That is why it is the only ciuuuy wan minions oi iamiucs, and is very where esteemed so highly by all vho valuo good health. Its beneficial ffects arc clue to the fact, that it is the mo remedy which promotes iuternal leanliness, without debilitating' the irgans on which it acts. It is therefore .11 important, in order to get its beneleial effects, to noto when you purhnsc, that you liavo the genuine article, vhich is manufactured by the California rig Syrup Co. only, and sold by ull repitable druggists.

Mr. P. B.
