Business in the store had to be attended to, however, and so I was obliged,,auffering as I was, to keep more or less on my feet and occasionally I was forced to go out. This was the ordeal I dreaded. Each time I wont out I trembled when I came near the car tracks, for my pain at times was so severe that I was obliged to stand perfectly still no matter where I was.

My anxiety to get well grow apace and I had about given up in despair when I saw in the Evening News one day. an ad- vertisement of Dr. Williams' Pink .Pills. Here was something I hadn't tried before and! lost notate in getting to the nearest drugstore. There I paid fifty cents for a box of these truly wonderful, heal; Ii restor- ing pills! Before I had finished taking half of the pills ,1 began to feel relieved; the pains in my hips gradually disappeared and for the first Ouse in many days. I felt as if there was some hope. I continued to take the pills and the more I took the better I felt. I finished one bor, got another, and now having taken only a few of the second fifty 'cents' worth, I ant free from •Il pain and as happy as the day is long.

After thirteen months in Edinburgh sent to London. Every young man in the Crated Kingd* with a partic- ularly brainy heaa, and a fine plucky confidence in his ability to hew out his fortunes, drifts to London, just u in America clever young fellows from all parts of the country come to New York. There in the vast metropolis the young art student made designs for a manufacturer of stained glass windows and also painted portrpits. _He was getting away from the glass factory a little, and was taking a stronger hold on art. He was perfectly willing to paint a portrait for $8 or $10 e He retail finish two of them a week,, One night he heard Harry Russell sing some of his emigrant songs. Rus- sell was a concert singer of those days; he had a sympathetic voice and sang popular songs. That eettleil it for young Brown. He woul emigrate. lie must \cross the wide lue sea.\ And he did. He arrived t New York on his twenty-second birthday, and Ifia' has been here ever since. As dual, when he made a change from one place to another, he at once sought for the art instruction in the new field. His three - pound prize and his portrait painting at glO a portrait had not yet enabled him to sink the artisan and be mita the artist. So he got employment in a glass factory, and went to the night classes of the Academy of Design, then on the southwest corner of Broadway and Thirteenth street. Thomas S. Cummings had charge of these classes at that time. So far young Brown's career had been very like that of the good young man in the story books. Now, in the story books, the good young man, as a rule, marries his employer's daughter. So that though this is always a most beau- tiful and delightful thing, it does not seem thrillingly novel or original on the part of the hero. Still, this is what J. G. Brown did some two years after he arrived in America. He mar- ried Miss Owens, the daughter of his employer. Then lie went to live in Brooklyn, where Mr. Brown took a studio on Atlantic and Clinton streets. And after they had been married one year Mr. Owens died, and a year later came the pule of 1857, in which what - e ter property the Owens family had was lost. Mr. Brown is ever so much better able to endure these hard times today, when he is sixty-three, than he was when he was twenty-six. But he went ahead, with the arit that has al- ways marked him, painting portraits. and about this time he began to paint children, pictures of little boys and girls, with a \story\ in them. His fondness for this class of subjects brought it about that after a while pe was spoken of as \The Child Painter'.\ He is still entitled to this appellation, though his \tough\ little newsboys and bootblacks are almost too bold and in- dependent to be styled children. Most ! them are little men. When Lei , Volte Was Danced. Southey, in his \Commonplace nook,\ II. 327, says Gifford, shows that the maltz of the present day is La Vote, of tkhich our ancestors, two centuries ago, became either tired or ashamed. This dance was first introduced at the court of Henry II. at Fontainebleau, in 1555, by the Comte de Sault, and its history is thus stated by Vincent Car- lotx in the memoirs of his master, Marecha: de Viellieville: \He (the Comte de Sault) had the principal vogue in a ball royal for his fondness for dancing and his good grace; so that he introduced at court a sort of (lance called 'La Vette de Provence,' which had never been danced there, and which has afterward had a great run thraeghout the kingdom. It hes also been said that he invented a, for many called it 'La Vette de Sault', and this name,is suitable, both because of the etymology of th- , eord and the char- acter of the dance. 'Car l'homme et Is femme s'estant embrasse tous-jours de trots ea quatre pas, tant que la dance dure, no font que tourner, virer. Wentres sou lever. et bondir. Et eat cette dance, quand elle eat Wen menee par persons nes eapertes tree agreable.'\ SPECIMEN STONES. ----- Gems of the Utmost Perfection and Ver3 Stare sod Precious. Peter() the existence of \specimen stones\ becomes, through the drain of them to America, a thing of the past for us, it may be well to say a few words about things which very few people have ever seen, and henceforward have little chance of seeing. The word -specimen stone\ explains that it is a gain of the ut- most perfection, bat few know how rare and precious it hi and how little it differs to the eye of any but an expert from an ordinary example of this kind. Specimen stones are mas- culine luxuries. They are never set, because even the most delicate set- ting might hide defects which would Make them comparatively valueless. The desire to possess them consti- tutes the last infirmity of noblemen, for not only are they the most conse- crated form of property, but the ap- preciation of them is the most exclu- sive form of culture. It may seem strange, but is true, that there are probably not fifty per- sons in England who can tell a dia- mond worth a hundred pounds a car- at from one worth five -and -twenty, and of these fifty not a dozen are jewelers. The trade in specimen stones is wholly in the hands of four or five great firms, and minor deal- ers, who have no custom for this class of gems, know almost as little out them as the laity. It takes years of practice, with such rarity of opportunity as the market affords,to train tho eye to recognize exactly the orthodox color of a ruby, emer- ald or sapphire, and to distinguish a brilliant of the first water from an ordinary \fine stone\ demands &del- icacy of vision which most peasons could never acquire. Stones may be divided into four distinct classes. Poor stones, ob- viously bad in color and full of \clouds \flaws\ and \feathers may be bought (one marvels who buys them ) at comparatively exceed- ingly low prices. The value of two rubiei of the same size, for example, might be severally £1 and ,E1,000 per carat. Then come the ordinary stones, stones which a lady may wear without discredit. their flaws and the poverty of their color not being visible except to the practiced eye. Of such stones consist ninety- nine per cent of those worn oven by rich women. \Fine stones,\ being ol thrice the value, are only to be seen on the persons of those who are fas- tidious as well as rich, for, though a commonly good judge can detect the difference at once, there is too great t a temptation, with most women, to put conspicuous quantity before 'inconspicuous quality, foe the latter to prevail. -Pall Mall Budget.

Tho decision of Jaidge Showalter in a recent case that came up before him sustains the claims of the Royal com- pany to the exclusive use of the name \Royal\ as a trademark for its baking powder. The special importance of this' decision consists in the protection which it assures to the millions of cons ambers of Royal baking powder against inferior and unwholesome compounds. The excellence of tins article has caused it ta be highly esteemed and largely used almost the world over. Its high standard of quality having been atways maintained, consumers have come to rely im- plicitly upon the \Royal\ brand as the most wholesome • and efficient of any in the market. The cupidity cif other manufacturers is excited try this high reputation and large demand. Very few of the hundreds of baking powders on the market are safe to use. If their makers could sell them under the name of a well known, reputeble brand incalculable damage would be done to the public health by the de- ception. The determination of the Royal Baking Powder C =pan). 'to protect the users of the Royal baking powder against imitators by a algid prosecution of them makes such imita- tions of its brand extremely rare. The Oldest Christian Fan. The oldest Christian fan in ext.:a ence dates, it is claimed, from the sixth century having belonged to Queen Theodelinda, the princess who possessed a nail of the holy arose, which afterwards was set in the iron crown of Lombardy. The Ian is preaerved in the castle of Mon- za. near Milan, and shown to the tourists as a relic. It is a folded fan. made in two leaves, which shut on, each other by means of a spring. It Is gilded and ornamented with pearls and rubies, and Lea's t 'aces of a Latin prayer. he handle is of solid gold, inlaid with gems. The young girls of Milan gp to Monza on a cer- tain de., in the year simply to touch this magical fan, as it is supposed to bring about a speedy and happy marriaae.

FOX AND NAPOLEON. The English Statesman Fascinated by - the First ConsuL During the summer of 1802 rex Jour- neyed to Paris, where he was pre- sented to Bonaparte earlj Septem- ber. The Englitsh statesman was tile- einated, and although the first consul said nothing definite or precise, his visitor departed convinced that his host desired nothing but peace with a liber- al policy both domestic and foretgn, as far as was consistent with safety. But the attacks of the English press became none the less virulent in con- sequence of Fox's favorable report, or of his brilliant defense of France from Ills place in parlianesne Toward the close of .January Talleyrand remon- strated with Whitworth, this time giv- ing point to Ills remonstrance lly a plump demand as to what England in - _tended to do about Malta. Whitworth replied that he was without instruc- tions, am .d made an evasive answer, hinting that the king's opinion of the changes that had taken place in Eu- rope since the treaty might be of im- portance an determining him as to the disposal af the island. This was the first official intimation that England did not intend to keep her promise. A few days later Sebastiani returned from the East, and on January 30, 1803, the \Moniteur\ published his thorou and careful report. It was a long do ment, fully explaining every source of English weakness in the Orient, and setting forth the possibilities of re-es- tablishing French colonies in Egypt and the Levant. There was only one menacing phrase, but it expressed an unpalatable truth, that \6 French troops could now conquer Egypt.\ The publication in England of this paper raised a tremendous popular storm, and it has ,pleased many historians to re- gard Bonaparte's course as a virtual declaration of war. In reality it was merely a French Roland for the Eng- lish Oliver. If England intended to keep Malta, let her beware of her prestige in the Eut. Had Bonaparte intended to act on Sebastiani's report, he certainly would not have published it. Of course, the English populace utterly failed to grasp so nice a point, and the incident so strained the rela- tions of France and England that all Europe saw the impending crisis -one or the other, or both, must consent to a modification of the treaty in respect to Malta, or there would be war. - \Life of Napoleon.\ COLLEGE GIRLS AND MARRIAGE. Bits of Confession That Throw a Light on the Question. I have no doubt that the remaining cause of the low marriage rate is that many men dislike intellectual women - whether because such women are really disagreeable or because men's taste is at fault, I shall not try to determine. And even among those who like them ,ats friends, many feel as the young man did who made this confession: \I never expected to marry the sort of girl I did. You know I always be- lieved in intellectual equality and all that, and had good friendships with the college girls. But you see, you girls; hadn't any illusions about us. After you had seen us hanging at the board on problems you could work, and had taken the same degrees yourselves, you couldn't imagine us wonders just be- cause we had gone, through college. and when I met a dear little girl that thought I knew everything -why, it just keeled me right over; it was a feeling I had no idea of.\ And the college woman answered: \I will betray something to you. Lots of us are just as unreformed as you; we want just as much to look up to our husbands as you want to ho looked up to. Only, of course, the more we know, the harder it is to find some- body to meet the want. Probably the equal marriage is really the ideal one, and everybody will come to prefer it some day. But personally, I like men to he superior to me; only I'll tell you what I don't like in diem: the wish to keep ahead of us by holding us back, like spoiled children that want to be given the game, and then admired for their skill. If men would encourage us to do our very atest, and then do still better themselves. it ought to be good for civilization.\ -\The Marriage Rate of College Women,\ by Milicent W Shinn, in the,Century. ABOUT PERFUMES. . — A slab in the great palace of Nine- veh represents a lady fainting and an attendant holding a smelling bottle, probably of perfumes, to her nose to i vive her. At the court of Louie XIV. the use of perfume was so general among both gentlemen and ladles that throughout Europe it was known as the \Scented Court.\ Perfumes are now extensively manu- factured in the United States, and the native articles( are said by experts to compare favorably with foreign man ufactures.

Instead of waiting until a bank official got behind in his ac- counts in consequence of excessive gambling or high living, the direet- ore preferred to close the stable door before the horsnhad got out. - St. Louis Globe -Democrat.
