Was the first woman to make every day use of the tricycle. Is systematic, orderly and business- like, and proud of it. Has no sympathy with the views or dress of Dr. Mary Walker. Is a gray-blonde of motherly ex- pression and good natured. Admires Ingersoll but regrets his anti-Christian exertions. Says she has always been treated “asa gentleman” by gentlemen.

Holds Ella Wheeler Wilcox in high esteem on account of her personality rather than her writings. Graduated from Genesee college in 1847, took a second degree from Syracuse university in 1870. Thinks she narrowly escaped being a boy, having all ofa boy's hardihood and love of out-door life.

Clubs among women in the United States are less than half a century old. the “Woman's Physiological Club” of Boston. It came into existence forty years ago and had for its ob- ject “the promotion of the more perfect form of women.” Its mission is not yet ended and probably never will be. Is Consumption Incurablet? Read the tollowing: Mr. C, H. Morris Newark, Ark,, says: “Was down with Abscess of the lungs, and friends and physcians pronounced me an Incurable consumptive. Began taking Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, am now on my third bottle, and able to oversee the work on my farm. It is the finest medicine ever made.” Jesse Middlewart, Decatur, Ohio, says “Had it not been for Dr. King’s New Discovery tor Consumption I would haye died of Lung Troubles. Was given up by doctors.

I was in the northern part of the city, and in a great hur to go to S$ ath Market stré In my pocket ws twenty dell money—not even a nic suaded that no car conductor would change the coin for me, I entered a galoon and ordered a glass of beer, kel. | throwing the yellow piece upon the bar as I did so. The bar keeper turned from the keg rack, placed the beer be- fore me, eyed the coin an instant, looked at me sharply, then reached for the untouched glass of beer, put it down behind the counter and said: ‘You can’t work that here; it’s been tried afore.’ I protested that the coin was genuine, that it was all Thad and that I wanted change to pay car fare— butit was no use. In his own words, he was ‘onto the gume,’ and I left the place filled with my own rage and cov- ered with that bar-keeper’s suspicion. «On the next corner was a drug store. I went in with the twenty dollar piece in my palm, and upon thrusting it be- fore the clerk, asking him whether he could change it, he replied sneeringly, and in tones which implied that he felt hurt at me for taking him for a green-horn: ‘Well, not this time.’ “Once outside the place, it occurred to me that if I had made a purchase there would have been no trouble in getting change. Resolved not to be so stupid again, I made for an invi looking cigar store five doors ay where I put my hickless coin on the glass top of the show case, and politely told the salesman, if he would change it for me, I would be only too glad to buy two dollars’ worth of his goods. The smile that crept into his face per- suaded me that I had conquered him. In reality I had only put him on his guard. He merely said as he turned to wait on another customer: ‘And U've had ‘em offer to buy five dollars’ worth, but we're not in that business.” Nothing but the fear of being arrested on the double charge of assault and battery and shoving counterfeit money prevented me from throwing a tobacco scales at that heartless wretch. “At three other places the coin was refused curtly and suspiciously, and finally fully reatizing what an absurd thing it v to do, I hurried over to the conductor of a Columbia avenue car that had stopped on a crossi and showing him my solitary coin, asked him if he could make change for me if I got aboard. He didn’t even answer me, but as he yanked his bell to go ahead I heard him say grutily to a fortunate possessor of a nickel who stood on the platform: ‘Guess that fel- ler thinks I own the road.” “Now, not one of the people who re- fused to make change for me touched the coin; the sight of it was enough for them and it made them suspicions. What did I do?) Why, I walked from Columbia avenue and Eighteenth street to Seventh z Market and the big end of my twenty-dollar piece went to pay for the supper and theater tickets. I had wagered on being there at the ap- pointed time. That's what a nickel cost me when I didn’t have it.’ —Phila- delphia Pr —_—_ o & ___ inventor of the two-wheeled grain-drill which is in such general use throughout the West died not long ago in a poor-house. —William K.

The exterior is much blanched, and is covered with sculptures, some of which are in a very bad condition. The tower, which rises above every thing else in the city, is 449 feet high. It was erected in 1860-4 in place of the old one, which, owing to its condition, had to be taken down. The tinest view over the city is to be had from the top of this tower. There is a little episode in connee- tion with this tower worth giving. It illustrates how haiser Joseph is thought of by his subje The evening pre- ceding the King’s birthday a man gained access to the tower room and commenced to climb to the top of the tow This had to be done by ascend- ing from the outside, and as he had nothing to cling to one may well im- agine his task. Faney, reader, that ie ¢ you see a man climbing heaven- ward upon the steeple of St. Peter's, State street, Albany, which well illustrates that — of St. Stephen’s. The hour midnight, a fierce wind blowing, around his body is wrapped a flag. he toils upward. For two long hours All below are uncon- scious of the unusual proceeding which is going on save «a comrade, who breathlessly awaits the result of his companion’s venture. At this stage the fire watchmen, who inhabit the tower in order to give alarm in case of tire breaking out in the city, discern an object above them and call out: ‘*‘Who is there?’ The climber, now near the summit, hears and answers: ‘Only I, Tam going to hang out a flag for the Emperor's birthday.’* Upon this word is telegraphed to a police station that aman is climbing the tower. Polic men come upon the scene. The wait- ing comrade is seen with the climber’s boots and, asked who they belong to, replies: ‘Oh, to my companion, whe is aloft...) Meanwhile the climber has reached the top, and he manages to get the flag from his body, and what is more, whuge pole which he had car- ried over his back, and then at then at ntof 449 feet he clings with id to his frail support, ties the pole to the top of the tower and the flag to it. After remaining there half zn hour he makes the descent in two more hours, and is met by a policeman, “Are these your boots?” “Then put them on,’’ and he marched off to the station. Upon being questioned he stated that he merely wished to give his Emperor a surprise, and he was immediately re- leased. And for over a week many persons could be seen standing gazing up at the flag and prophesying that it would fall. After this the tower was inclosed for a way up by boards, but the feat was again attempted by youth, who, after going a short dis tance, gaveit up and returned to “four- teen days’ for his smartness. Now spikes may be seen in place of boards, and the one who next attempts the as- cent will doubtless soon be in need of a tailor.—Cor. Albany (N. ¥.)

She was delighted, and insisted upon my having the piece smoothed off on one side and the place and date of my good fortune inscribed thereon, the carrying out of which conceit cost me two dollars and fifty cents. Altogether, Ishould think my find cost me nearly ten dollars; so take my advice, and if you run across any stray dollars don’t ; pick’em up.’"—™. F. Sun.
