us: “I have been using your Dr. Wru.
Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs, and I can
say, of a truth, it is far superior to any
other lung preparation iu the woild. My
mother was confined to her bed four
weeks with a cough, and had every at-
tention by a good physician, but, he failed
to effect a cure; and when I got one
bottle of your Dr. Win. Hall’s Balsam for
the Lungs, she began to mend right
away. I can say in truth that it was the
means of saving her life. 1 know of five
'ses that Dr. Win. Hall’s Balsam has

nas been for twenty years.”

An Evening Meal.
When Peter the Great, czar of Russia, be-
gan to lay the foundation of the present pow-
erful autocracy he invited the more civilized
peasantry of Germany and France to settle
on the vacant lands of his vast dominions,
guaranteeing to all who would do so certain
great concessions, among others an entire ex-
emption from military duty. Of this liberal
offer large numbers of the people of Ger-
many and France took advantage and
removed to southern Russia, settling in the
provinces bordering upon the Black sea,
where they founded towns and villages, and
enjoyed the benefit of their guaranteed rights.
Subsequent rulers of Russia set aside many
of the grants of Peter the Great, and re-
quired a certain amount of military duty
performed by the subjects of the czar, irre-
spective of all former exemptions, and to
avoid this duty many 0f the descendants of
these German settlers left Russia, coming to
the United States. It is of these immigrants
that the village population of Meimo and
nearly all the surrounding farming com-
munity is composed, and here I had come in
my ramblings.
Resolved to inquire into the reasons for
such wholesale migration from Russia, I
started out from my lodging house one morn-
ing to interview some of the inhabitants. At
last I found some one who spoke enough
English to understand me and tell me what I
wanted to know. After an hour’s talk with
this man I went on my way about town,
stopping here and there to ask a question,
sometimes to be answered, oftener to see the
inimitable shrug of the shoulders and hear
the “Nich verst ay.”
A RUSSIAN VILLAGE.
Travelers in the countries of Europe have
often described the customs and habits, as
well as dress, of the peasantry, and here we
have it in all its oddity and originality, for
here we have a Russian village reproduced
in all its essential features. The women wear
the little square shawls folded and tied over
their heads, some of these head shawls being
richly embroidered, while others are simply
plain pieces of figured cotton cloth, hemmed
at the edges, to be worn while working with
the men in the fields, as all women do here.
In building their houses the rear of the house
is placed fronting the street—if you will
allow the Irishism—and the only entrance is
by going around to the back part. Only the
plain, blank siding of the gable faces the
street, without window or door.
Here everybody smokes cigarettes except
the women (they are not considered anybody
here). Stop to converse with one of the men
and he’ll begin hunting for his cigarette paper
and tobacco pouch, often very fine ones of
silk embroidery. It is wonderful what skill
is acquired by constant practice. One of the
Mennonites will detach a paper, sprinkle a
little tobacco on it, make a turn with his
fingers, and lo! it’s done. I have tried it
many times but always failed, either tearing
the thin paper or spilling the tobacco, while
a great, coarse fisted farm laborer will twist
one as daintily and as easily as a professional.
One day while stopping here I was invited
by Dr. W. to ride with him about ten miles
to visit some patients to whom he had been
called; and as I wanted to see their
mode of life more closely, and the
doctor spoke the language, I very gladly
availed myself of the opportunity thus of-
fered. We drove over a very fine country
for some miles, past groves of cottonwoods
and maples that hacl been set out in regular
rows by owners of farms, and here I noticed
what seems a very peculiar way of building
tiheir houses far from where they had planted
their groves and shade trees, the houses
standing out in the open glare of the sun, far
from any sheltering shade. Houses here are
built of mud, a sort of clay mixed with straw.
They first lay a very loose, rough wall of
small bowlders, cementing them together with
clay. They then plaster this wall thickly
over with the mixed clay, and allow it to
stand until thoroughly dried by the sun,
when it is again plastered with clay. This is
re peated a number of times, the last coat
being given a thorough whitewash of lime.
The walls, when thus finsshed, are nearly tivo
feet thick, and enclose about as damp, ill-
ventilated and unhealthy a habitation as can
be found or constructed.
AN EVENING MEAL.
Arriving at our destination about the time
for the evening meal, we were invited to take
supper before returning. The doctor, being
acquainted, at first hesitated, but on my ex-
pressing a desire to stay and see what we
would see he accepted the invitation, and we
entered the house,- stooping and groping
through a shed-like structure into the kitchen,
which also served as dining room, sitting
room, as well as nursery. Phewl On enter-
ing the room we were made aware of the
most fearful odor arising from the compost
which was used for fuel. Af 'T sitting a few
moments, my olfactories becoming some-
what accustomed to the smells and my eyes
accustomed to the darkness, relieved only by
the faintly struggling light that forced its
way in tln’ough two small narrow windows
set deep in the thick mud walls, I found time
to take a survey of the inside of the room,
and this is what I saw: A small square room,
with a large bed in one corner, a table in the
other, while at one side was an oven made of
clay and covered with sheet iron, upon which
the woman was cooking the supper of which
we were soon called to partake.
Perhaps this may reach the eye of some one
anxious to learn the secret of tastily spreading
an evening repast, so I will attempt to tell
you how they had put upon the table what
the doctor said was far better than the aver-
age supper to be gotten in the neighborhood.
In the center of the table was placed a large
bowl, containing a soup of which some of the
ingredients were prunes, dried apples, flour
and water, onions and milk. In addition to
the soup a huge loaf of dark looking rye and
wheat flour bread was placed on the table,
and we were asked to “ess,” which we pro-
ceeded to do in as hearty a manner as the
circumstances would allow. Coffee was
served in glass tumblers and drank without
sugar, though we did have milk. I ate my
dish of soup to convince the doctor that I was
accustomed to good fare like this, while he ate
liis to convince me that he liked to live among
the people here, and I think we both tried to
act a false part.—Dakota Cor. Pioneer Press.
Sealed Eggs in Scotland.
In a country which hardly requires to be
mentioned eggs are sometimes served on Sun-
day in the inns to guests who, on account of
a certain act of parliament, dare not call for
a “drink.” The eggs are full of whisky, the
meat having been blown out and the whisky
put in its place. Then the egg is hermetically
sealed and ready for use. A Scotchman
never tires of eggs.—Chicago Herald.
IF MAIDENS BUT KNEW.
L good wife rose, from her bed one mom
aWI thought with nervous dread
Of the piles on piles of clothes tobq washed
Ana tho dezan of mouths to befett.
"There’s the meals to got for the metfln the Sold,
And the children to fix away to school,
And all the milk to be skimmed and Churned,
And all to Mr done this day.”
It had rained in the njght. and all the Wood
Was wet as it could be,
There were puddings and pies to bake
And a loaf of cake for tea.
And the day was hot, and her aching head
Throbbed wearily as she said:
“If maidens but knew what good wives know
They’d not be in haste to wed.”
“Annie, what do you think I told Ned Brown?”
Called the farmer from the well—
And a flush crept up to his bronzed brow
And his eyes half bashfully fell.
“It was this:” And coming near he smiled.
“It was this: That you are the best
And the dearest wife in town.”
The fanner went back to the field,
And the wife, in a smiling, absent way,
Sang snatches of tender little songs
She’d not sung in many a day.
And the pain in her head was gone, and her
clothes
Were as white as the foam of the sea,
And her butter as sweet and golden as it could be.
The night came down—
The good wife smiled to herself as she said:
“ ’Tis so sweet to labor for those we love
It is not strange that maids,wi* 1] wed.”
SECOND-HAND SCHOOL BOOKS.
What Becomes of Them—1They Form the
Basis for a Seliool Book Exchange.
“What becomes of all the second-hand
school books?” was asked of a veteran dealer
by a reporter.
“That’s what people are all the time won-
dering” he replied. “The general public have
the idea that they go where pins, needles,
hairpins and such things go to, that is, they
disappear somehow or other and no one luiows
where to. You may be surprised to learn it,
but there is a large and increasing
trade done in second-hand school books alone;
so much so that we have now a regular school
book exchange. You see, boards of school
trustees are all the time changing the books
their pupils study, unless not allowed to do so
by law, which is the case in some states, and
in former times, when they made a change,
they either sold the discarded books for old
paper or burned them. But now they are
more economical. They hunt up the school-
book exchange and are allowed to trade
their discarded books for those they want,
of course paying something for doing so.
Why, through the agents, booksellers, school
trustees, and others, we keep track of changes
of this nature made in any important school
throughout the United States.
“I have a book here, indexed, which gives
the towns in which a certain publisher’s
geography is used. To give you an illustra-
tion: As soon as I hear that a school is going
to substitute another geograghy for that one
I make a bargain for the discarded ones, and
at once writing to the towns where it is still
in favor, probably will have the lot sold be-
fore they reach here. It is the same way
with dealers in a town. When the public
schools branch off from a certain book the
dealer has no further sale for them, and so he
is glad enough to get rid of his stock to me,
and I can dispose of them where they are in
use. I have on file blanks from all localities
on which are given the names of the school
books in use in the vicinity. Of course, I
take the books at a discount.”
“How much do you get; for a second-hand
school book?”
“As a rule, about half price. The demand
for the regular second-hand ones is now par-
ticularly in the farming districts and
throughout the south. Take a farmer’s boy
who has been to school only a few months
and has not much spare money, and
he will eagerly buy a school book but
little worn when he can get it at half its
original price. As to the demand in the
south, there seems to he a greater apprecia-
tion of the advantages of a more general ed-
ucation, and my agents all report a marked
increase in the demand for school books
there.”—New York Mail and Express.
The Horrors of Morphine.
“Give me only a few drops; for God’s sake,
give me just a little!”
The words came from a shrunken-faced
man who stood in front of a drug store on
William street as he raised his hands appeal-
ingly.
“I cannot give you any,” replied the drug-
gist, as he closed the door in the man’s face.
The latter began a vigorous pounding on
the door, and presently a policeman ap-
peared.
“What’s the row?” he asked.
“This man is a morphine fiend,” replied the
druggist, “and I can’t sell him any.”
“Oh, for heaven’s sake, give me just a little!
See, I have money I”
“The policeman led the man away, but ten
minutes later he was back again. The po-
man again appeared and dragged the man off
in the direction of the station house.
“If you go home I’ll let you go,” said the
kind-hearted policeman.
The man promised to go directly home and
started away. An hour afterward he was
again in front of the drug store beseeching
the proprietor to sell him a small quantity of
morphine.
This time another policeman hove in sight,
and in response to the druggist’s demands or-
dered the morphine “fiend” away. Threats
were useless, and the policeman cuffed the
man’s ears. It was in vain, he still pleaded
for the drug. Then the policeman shoved the
man away. The latter seemed very feeble
and fell headlong to the pavement.
When he got up the blood was flowing from
his mouth, but he refused to go away, and the
policeman was compelled to take him to the
station house.
“They can talk about liquor ruining men,”
said the druggist, “but when opium once gets
its grasp on a man he’s gone.”—New York
Journal.
Prolific in Peculiar People.
California appears to be prolific in odd and
peculiar people. To speak of any one as a
crank would be superfluous, as they appear
to be a nation of cranks. In a word there is
no spot on earth so blessed by nature and
cursed by man as California. Speaking of
cursing reminds me that everybody seems to
swear as though it was the fashionable thing
to do. I had about become convinced that
the country produced an abundance of every-
thing for which man had any use till I heal’d
them swear; then I knew that there must be
a dearth in language. Words appear to be
so very scarce that out of mere poverty of
language (if for no more villainous reason)
they keep repeating their nauseating blas-
phemy over and over again. It appears to
be the proper thing to damn somebody either
to air a personal grievance or perhaps as a
prevailing Californian mannerism. — San

.Changed foi the Better During the Pnst
Two Years—The Cantilever Bridge.
tip at the falls things have changed won-
derfully for the better within the past few
years. The general appearance of the place
is more prosperous than I ever saw it before.
The liberality of tho state of New York has
freed the visitor on the American side from
all the petty tolls and exactions that existed
around the great cataract. AJ l the usual fifty
cent places are free. It is rather strange that
this expenditure of, I may say, millions, was
due to the suggestion of Lord Dnfferin when
governor general of Canada, and yet his own
country has not so far followed his advice. A
green fence made of iron now stretches from
the falls two miles down to the old suspension
bridge. This is a great improvement and
prevents you from tumbling into eternity by
a false step in the dark, as many persons were
in the habit of doing. Nothing was ever so
serious an interruption of a day’s pleasure at
Niagara than to take a step off the cliff.
I am sorry to say the picturesque stone
towers of the old suspension bridge are being
taken down and in their places steel towers
are to be erected, and the material therefor is
being constructed at this moment in Detroit.
This improvement will be a wonder of engi-
neering, for the stone towers wifi be taken
down and the iron towers put in their place
without for a moment interrupting the pas-
sage of a train across the aerial structure.
The new cantilever bridge is finished, and
whatever it is as a work of engineering it is'
the most brutally ugly structure that ever
has been erected in America, which is saying
a good deal.
It is painted a dull drab color, which adds,
if possible, to its general hideousness. It
gives the idea of great strength, which, doubt-
less, it possesses, but it is angular and bald
and altogether offensive to the eye. In the
capital of Switzerland there is an iron bridge
which spans the chasm similar to that of Ni-
agara, but the bridge at Beme springs from
its abutments into a beautiful airy and fairy
like arch that is a pleasure to look at and is as
strong as there is any need for. Instead of
an arch at Niagara we have ugly angles, and
the bridge looks like a difficult problem in
Euclid.—Cor. Detroit Free Press.
Furnishing Obituary Poetry.
Another business that is heard of now and
then, the furnishing of obituary poetry, is
successful in the hands of a man who lives
somewhere on the east side. He watches the
papers for death notices, and, having chosen
one that long experience has taught him is
apt to be available for his pm’pose, he goes to
the bereaved locality, inspects the house, asks
what questions about the family he can of
the neighbors, and then goes home and writes
a “poem” appropriate to the occasion. A day
or two after the funeral he calls upon the
departed, and, moved by the termination of
his or her career, has written “this little
tribute,” which he delicately offers for a rea-
sonable sum. It is said that his price is
usually $2, and that he makes from $10 to $15
a week from his literary efforts.
There is another sort of people who make
a practice of inspecting the death notices for
business. The attention of these persons is
limited to the decease of wives. They are
women of rather uncertain repute, and their
object is to get an engagement as house-
keeper for the widower. Their method of
operation is much the same as that employed
by the obituary poet. But they sometimes
go further. I heard of a man who had lost
his wife, and at the funeral was surprised to
see several strange women. Hardly was the
burial over before he received six applica-
tions for the position of housekeeper, each
one of the applicants having been seen at the
fnneral.—“Uncle Bill’s” New York Letter.
Characteristics of the Germans.
Perhaps the popular idea that a German is
a somewhat phlegmatic, unexcitable indi-
vidual, with more staying powers than mo-
mentum, is, take it all in all, a tolerably cor-
rect one. It is a sore point to refer, within
the hearing of any of the Kaiser Wilhelm’s
subjects, to Voltaire’s doubt whether “un
Allemand peut avoir de l’esprit.” Yet the
doubt must not unfrequently Have struck
others besides the venomous Frenchman, a
certain lumpishness being common to the
people at large.
No race is more frugal, more patient, more
hai’dy or more easy to govern; hence they
make the best of colonists, just as the
Celt, and the Celto-Latin, the Frenchm n,
make the worst. Yet these qualities, in
which he so abounds when transplanted to a
foreign soil, are less marked at home. The
heaviness of the German makes him, as a
workman, dilatory, unpunctual, slow, and
often “bungling.” His handiwork has sel-
dom the neatness of the Frenchman’s, and It
is not often that he can be depended on to
finish what he has contracted to perform
within the stipulated period. Hence, railway
contractors preferred the English navvy, not
that he was so much stronger than the Ger-
man, but simply because he did not find so
many excuses for interference with his con-
tinuous work.—Peoples of the World.

Tlie Plagiarisms of Royalty.
It would seem that the Prince of Wales’ sons
have been guilty of a very flagrant piece of
plagiarism. No passage in “The Cruise of the
Bacchante” has been so admirably quoted as
the one written while between Barbadoes and
Martinique, which begins: “We should be less
than men,” and ending, “but the sad memory
of their useless valor,” etc. It is indeed a
a most eloquent and effective passage, as well
it may be, for it turns out to have been copied
almost word for word from Charles Kingsley’s
charming work, “At Last,” where it will be
found in the second chapter. Canon Dalton
allowed it to be published, without hint, hap-
pily without suspicion, of its true origin. The
princes, however, may console themselves un-
der this unpleasant exposure by reflecting
that they have only imitated Lord Beacons-
field, who, it may be remembered, borrowed
nearly half his elaborate oration on the Duke
of Wellington from a translation of a work
by Thiers. It was stolen without the change
of a single word. These royal authors have
plundered Canon Kingsley in much about the
same fashion.—Chicago Times.
The Knot and the Mile.
The “knot” and the mile are terms often,
used interchangeable, but erroneously so.
The fact is that a mile is less than 87 per cent,
of a knot. Three and one-half miles are equal,
within a very small fraction, to three knots.
The knot is 6,082.00 feet in length. The
statute mile is 5,280 feet. The result of the
difference is that speed in miles per hour is
always considerably larger than when stated
in knots, and if a person forgets this and
states a speed at so many knots, when it was
really so many miles, he may be giving fig-
ures verging on the incredible.—Philadel-
phia Call.
Sheep Often Wear Chamois Skins.
The Boot and Shoe Record says that the
number of animals from which the chamois
skins are taken which are killed in a year
does not exceed 1,000, while tens of thousands
of chamois skins are put upon the trade
yearly, and wonders what is the matter. The
Record should be aware that a good many
sheep wear chamois skins—New York Com-
mercial Advertiser.
