“A year ago my father, William Thomp- son, was taken suddenly 111 with inftlam- mation of the bladcer. He suffered a great deal and was very low forsometime. At last the doctor said he wouid not get well unless an operation was performed. At

hore are women in this advanced ise of civilization who are ready to ‘inder the efforts of reformers to abolish he funeral pyre of the Hindostanee.
\ memorial meeting was helda few laysagoin honor of a man who had wen piominent in public work. His ‘ormer colleagues and intimate friends illed the large platform. Among them sat his widow, weeping silently ander lor crepe yeil. One after an- ther the orators of the oceasion laid tibutes of eloquence at the altar of his nemory. One, more inspired and with tlonger speech than the rest, follow- ‘d the history of his life from the time f his birth, “in the troublous days when all Europe was aghast at the sight ef Napoleon striding over the ruins of empires to a universal throne.”
“But the most important event of his life,” he continued, ‘happened at a later date. It was at a fancy ball that he met, as he afterward said. the first and only love of his life. He was there lisguised as a Highlander.
“What ?” he whispered, as some one ‘ugzed at his coat, but, getting no reply, he went on: ‘And the lady of ais choice was dressed”—here there was another tug—‘'was dressed as a Turk- After a short court- sh'pthey were married.”
He th n continued the eulogy of the youthful bride of the deceased in ex- travagant terms. When he sat down t neighbor orator whispered, ‘* You for- rot his widow.”
“Oh, no, I didn’t. send-off.”
“Good heavens,” exclaimed the other, “this is his third wife.”—BPoston Globe.
The Permanenee of Religion. $‘s not uncommon to hear specula- tiem. on the permanence of religion. It . uld be just as reasonable to talk of the permanence of the intellect or the onscience, the permanence of the im- agination or any other constituent ele- ment of human nature. The vocabul- ary of religion, its forms and cere- monies, its symbols and organized in- titutions, have ail their perishable ele- ments ; but the source of religion is in- separable from the nature of men. We do not mean that religion is the utter- ance alone ofa single faculty. Intel- lect. imagination, conscience, emotion, the love of the beautiful and sublime, may all enter into it; but this only shows from what varied sources of our nature itis derived. As long as there is anything in the universe tu worship. nan will be a worshipper. So long as God speaks, so long man will answer. It is strange, then, that religious au- thority should have been made so often to depend upon some perishable ex- ternal incident of religion rather than upon the spiritual conscicusness of mankind.

Drinking Fountains For Birds. The Tree Planting and Fountain So- ciety, of Vrooklyn, has taken up a »ranch of work in which it hopes to
trouse general interest. Its latest ef- ort is to secure the erection of foun-
tains for birds in the parks, and in private grounds that are large enough to warrant it. The fountain, designed to supp'y birds with places where they may constantly have fresh water for bathinzgaad drinking, consists of a shal- low basin about four feet in diameter, in the center of which is a spray. The fountain is elevated on a standard to the height of seven feet, thus affording the bird protection from the attacks of
cats. The supports are so arranged that they may be used for climbing vines or movable plants. Similar
fountains may be placed upon brackets onthe sides of buildings, or in other convenient places, and may be made to crnament a flower garden, a lawn, or a grove. In urging the adoption of these fountains, the society says it is often difficult for birds to get water in dry weather, and in localities remote from running streams the birds may have to travel miles for a dsink of water or a bath,—Brooklyn Eagle. A Mixed Up Anthem.
A party of New York men and wo- men who were entertaining an Eng- lishman in town the other night wound up the ent@tainment by singing. The lady atthe piano played ‘'America,” and the hostess ran to herin alarm and said: ‘‘Please don% play that. The man will discover that we don’t know our national song. We Americans are always put in a ridiculous position when the patriotic songs come up. Every foreigner knows his own, but we none of us know ours.” It was too late.. The comj%iny caught the first bar and fell tosinging. Everybody got as far as ‘Of thee I sing,” and then the Americans began to replace the words with la la-la and tum-te-tum. The Englishman sang straight ahead, and the hostess looked at him in amaze- ment. ‘He is the only one present who knows the words,” she said. She walked near him and listened. Then she whispered: ‘‘Thank Heaven, it isn’tso. He is singing ‘God Bless Her Majesty’ tothe same tune.”

Ueprincipled persons are trying to prey upon and dupe people who are Jed to ask fur kidney treatment.
Some of the methods adoptee by imitat- ors are as follows:
First—To imitate the size, color and shaye of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sell them by count.
Second—To put them up to appearjvery neadly the same and to be offered at the same price.
Third—To hook on the work “kidney” in naming catbortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic.
Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd’s that unwary people may b2 deceiv- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s.
Look out for such dodges. When you want kidney medicine you want the best. And oughe not to be the subject for any trick.

Women Doctors in Austria.
The question whether women ought «0 ve allowed to study medicine and en- souraged to become regular doctors or medical practitioners is discussed in an able pamphlet which has just been published by the celebrated surgeon, Prof. Albert, of Vienna University, and has given rise to an animated dis- cussion in medical The an- swer returned by this eminent author- ity is a most decided At the same time, while
circles.
negative, giving the
grounds of his decision, he suggests a |
compromise and expresses views which are adapted to reconcile conflicring opinions on the subject. The professor argues that all the works of human society thaf®surround us are the crea- tion of the male sex, that men have never been thoroughly comprehended by women ; that the proper sphere of woman is maternity; and that the study of medicine. though perfectly possible to woman, does net repay her the immense pains it costs to master it. For she is, for the most part physically and psychically incapable of practically pursuing the profession, so that the torture of the many years required to acquire it is virtually thrownaway and goes unrewarded. The professor, how- ever, admits that they have special qualifications for dealing with the sick, and he says that these can be made to render most valuable service. He pro- poses to make women who have re- ceived a certain amount of education the regular assistants of physicians and surgeons, in hospitals as well as out of them.-—-New York Times.
Curing Hog Cholera by Electrozone.
A Southern farmer has made a valu- able discovery. Electrozone, which has been adopted by Philadelphia and other cities for the disinfection of public buildings, the sluicing of streets, etc., is already fairly well known to the public as consisting of sea or salt water, decomposed by the passing through it of the electric current. In the process the chlorides and bromides and other elements of water are changed into hypochlorites and hypo- bromides and other compounds, which instantly act upon the diseased tissue, killing germ life and restoring a healthy’ condition. It is germicidal, antiseptic, disinfectant and deodorant. It isclaimed to be a sovereign remedy in diphtheria. The farmer, who lived in Colbert County, Ala., having read an item on the therapeutic action of elcetrozone in human cholera, thought he would try the new antiseptic for hog cholera. At that time the cholera had for six weeks been decimating that section of hogs, and, knowing how futile were all the remedies within their knowledge, the farmers were fold- ing their arms in submission. The electrozone was tried, and out of a herd of forty hogs, ali of which had the cholera, and the majority of which under the circumstances would have been swept away, three only were lost, After this satisfactory outcome of the use of the disinfectant in hog cholera, the farmer turned his attention to the treatment of chicken cholera, which, his experience taught him, became epidemic at the time the hogs were smitten. Dough was moistened with the liquid and fed to the chickens, of which not one afterward died. The liquid was also found a valuable cura- tive agent in distemper among horses and mules,

Strong-Minded Women.
Do vou know any of those dominant women who overwhelm you with their unsought advice, and almost force you to act upon it.
I met such an one overwhelming a mild little friend of mine whom she had accompanied, by violence, on a shopping tour.
They were wrestling over some dam- ask towels as I approached.‘
“T always get this kind,” said the strong one, ‘‘and it gives splendid satis- faction.”
“Don’t you think that-a trifle heavy ?” ventured the little lady. “I have always preferred a_ lighter weight.”
*‘Not a bit,” cried the first. ‘You take my advice—yet get this towel. If you take the kind you like you'll regret
it. You need about three dozen. Do you want to have them charged ?” “Why, 'd rather think about it a
little and order them later,” said the poor thing, who was too gentle to assert herself and buy what choose what she bought.
“Oh, what an idea! Take them, now you are here. I tell you they are fine, strong goods, vou'll like them when you get used to them.”
The poor mouse laid her hand on the soft goods, but Argus Eyes saw the motion and cried :
‘‘Now don’t take these flimsy things! You'll thank me for not letting you; these will wear soft after a while.”
To make a long story short, the heavy towels were ordered, and return- ed the next day for the others by the over-urged little woman, who knew what she wanted but didn’t have the courage to say so.

The Doctor Was Positive.
A singular affidavit was filed in the United States Land Office at St. Cloud, Minn., recently. It was necessary to prove the death of one of the parties to a contested case, and this is the manner in which Dr. N. K. Whittemore, of Elk River, the attending physician, proceeded to doso: ‘*Thisis to certify that Sarah Langen, supposed to be single, died on February 8, 1895. I have no memorandum stating just the cause of death, and I have had more to think about in caring for the living than thinking about the dead. How- ever, lam quite certain that she is dead, and have certified to that fact at least once before, She was a pa- tient of mine, and that ought to at least give me authority to know where- of | speak, and possibly that ought to be sufficient guarantee that she ig dead.”—Morning Call.
