Manila Is a Gay city.
1To greater mistake Leonid be made
than to suppose that, in matters of
dress, Manilla is a "shoddy" place.
On the contrary, the city is as gay as
the climate permits. Everyone likes
to look at his best, especially during
the late afternoon and evening. The
drive along the Luiaeta during the
hour around sundown is a scene
kaleidoscopic in color. Circumstances
permitting, there is plenty of social
life in the evening.

THE HOLE IN THE GROUND.
'
One of Natraret's Wonders That Way
Be Seen In Texas.
In the Peach creek neighborhood is a
place known as the Hole In the Ground,
which is the only place in Texas, as far
as known, where the wind bloeva up and
down, a regular gale. The hole is on the
cattle ranch belonging to Claps Baum-
gartner and close to the creek between
high, wooded bluffs. Peach creek is. re-
ally a bayou, its \raters level with the
sea and running only during freshets
caused by excessive rains. High south
or north winds are the only ones to ruf-
fle its usually placid surface.
But it does not matter how placid the
waters of Peach creek may be, how
straight and unbending the trees on the
bluffs may stand or hew lazily the clouds
drift through the 111, there is always a
gale at the Hole In the Ground.It blows
and roars and whistles and shrieks as
only a raging hurricane eau do in its mad
career. The hole is it costly affair, to the
man \vho owns it. The low ground on
wbich it is situated is the only place
where his cattle can get water at the
creek.
It would be all ' right if a fence could'
be maintained around the hole, but that
cannot be done. Every time the wind
veers to the east everything above ground
between the is sucked into it,
snapping the stoutest fenceposts like
plpesteme and snatching coils tf barbed
wire like they were flimsy gossamers. At
such times horses, cattle aud 'sheep that
happen to be on the fiat are doomed.
Strong horses, caught in the eddy of the
mysterious wind, are as helpless as flies
in a gale, They plunge aud leap and
struggle for a mlbute, Wien they, are
pressed down, whirled around a few
times and go down never to be,. seen
again.
The hole itself is about 300 feet across
the top, with slanting sides. No one has
ever dared to go close enough to be able
to look down into it and see what the
bottom is like. The sounds of the wind
vary froru a hoarse roar to a keen whis-
tling noise. The prevailing winds, except
an east wind, do not seem to affect it in
any way, for in calm and storm, rain and -
shine, night and day, Nenter and summer,
it puffs and sucifs aud whirls and eddies
to suit itself.
Twice in the memory of man Peach
creek has overflowe.d its banks ,high
enough to run into the hole. The water
then rose to it depih' of four feet on the
flat where the hole is situated. For a
minute or ,so the water would pour clown
with a gurgling z)ise, then the earth
around seemed to hump itself for a mo-
ment, and the next there would be an ex-,
plosive sound, whet) it would come up
again in a solid column 100 feet high.
When this column broke, the waves rush-
ed against the adjacent bluffs and were
whipped into foam. This was repeated
every minute or two until the water iu
the creek went back again within its
banks. After the water had, receded and
the hole had resumed its usual labor of
sucking and puffing wind once more, the
ground around was literally covered with
the bones of dead animals on which it
had gorged itself for many years before

Finger
The pace of growth of finger nails va-
ries very much, not only at different ages,
but in different individuals of the same'
age. Influenced'41Y many external and
internal conditions, the pace also varies
in the same person frOm time to time.
A. few observations will be submitted to
the notice of the reader as to the growth
of finger nails in men at different ages.
At 21 years the mill was replaced in
126 days, at 31 yeers in 159 days, at 32
years in 88 days, at 55 years in 110 days,
at 67 years in 14t days. rt is curio -LIS
that in this growth the swiftest grower
was a tuberculous subjeet who had a
sharp attack of lelood spitting during the
observation. Sea eir is said to quicken
the growth of the re -:els; profound grid?
has been credited with the power of de-
stroying them.
A valuable point of diagnosis is afford-
ed by the growth of the auger nail. In
distinguishing between true paralysis of
centric origin and the various pseudo:- ,
paralyses of. hyst eria which sometimes so
closely simulate organic disease, it is
well to remember that the growth of the
nail is modified by most of the centric
lesions, while its development is not af-
fected by hysteria.---'lledical Record.

Trouble --Many Medicines Were Tin-
.
(Id, But Follett—Dr, Williams' Pink
Pills Saved Him.
Mr. Tames Upper, of Allenburg, is
a gentleman welt known in Welland
county. Mr, Upper was proprietor of
the village liotel for over thirty years,
and no better landlord ever catered
to a traveller's wants. Mr. Upper ' s
acquaintance also extends over Ontario
as a sequel to nis prominence in
Orange and Masonic circles. , 1 -lis
present vocation is farming, and in this
calling he has been very successful.
Mr. Upper has been a sufferer for
years from kidney trouble and began
to think that :rood health had alto-
gether passed him by; but the time
came when he founcl a complete cure
and is again strong, happy and vigor-
ous. In regard to Mr. Upper's sick --
1106S and cure he says :--` lei December
of 1897 I was prostratesi with a severe
form of kidney trouble. Previous to
this 1 was slightly afflicted in the
same way, but at this time matters
came to a climax as the result of ex-
posure and over exertion. To say that
I suffered does not epxress it: the
pains in my back were terrible. I
gradually grew worse and was com-
pelled to leeep my bed and for months
I existed as though in a hideous
dream. I had considerable nausea and
loathing for food, was greatly reduced
in flesh. The pain daily grew more
intolerable. I got little sleep; was
left weak and exhausted, aud drspair-
ed of getting well. Different reme-
dies were tried without benefit. Fin-
ally I was persuaded to try Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills and procured six
boxes. This was about March lst,
1898. I took the pills faithfully and
at the eud of two months I felt well
again and able to attend to my work.
The following autumn. I experiepced
a slight recurrence of die trouble and
againmased a few boxes of the pills
and now consider my cure complete,
as a year has since passed and I have
not experienced a pain or ache. I am
now able to follow farming pursuits
with peefect ease. My wife also
speaks as warmly in fa,vor of Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills as I do, having used
them for headache, dizziness and loss
of appetite, the pills always giving
comfort and. relief. Since my illness
I have learned that a good remedy is
none the less good because its cost
was so much less than I expected."

A PAYING REVENGE.
HOW ONE DEAR GIRL GOT THE BET'
TER OF ANOTHER.
And Succeeded Into the Bargain
In Regaining lite Affections of a
Young Man Who Had Ail but For-
sworn Allegiatte.e to Her.
"What would you do if you ban a ri-
val?" queried the "roi evedo
"Speak well of her to the man I didn't
want her to macry," promptly replied the
girl in the purple hat.
"Of course you would, goosie. I never
supposed that you would neglect so ob-
vious a thing as that. I asked because—
well, because you must have noticed that
Ralph was rather attentive to Lucille for
awhile."
"I did, dear. Why, he used actually to
repeat her father's jokes at the club, and
that is usually the last thing before the
taking out of the license. By the way,
though, I haven't seen him with her late -
"Neither have' I, dear," demurely re-
plied the gray eyed girl. "The fact is I
have not seen her at all for some time.
I have, however, been very busy, so"—
"Would you mind telling me just how
you did it?" lime° in the girl in the pur-
ple hat. "It will be perrectly safe, you
know, because Ned confided in you the
last time we quarreled, and I ani natu-
rally anxious to let bygones remain by-
gones."
"I fancied as ninch, dear. Well, yes, it
would be a kind of relief totell somebody
all about it, and I haven't been able to
confide ha a soul."
"Ralph least of all," smiled the girl in
the purple hat. "Yes, you are quite safe
with me. Go on."
"I will. In the first place, I felt ,un-
easy when Lucille ceased coming to
my house twice a day. That proved con-
clusively to me that she saw Ralph else-
where, and the Mat time they happened
to meet at my house she didn't even leave
when he did!"
"Nowonder you -were uneasy. Did yon
take to returning the arrears of visits
you owed her?"
"Mercy, no! I merely wrote her a nice,
affectionate note, telliug her not to think
anything of it if she didn't see me for a
week, as I had it lot of duty visits to
make."
"But what on eattb induced"—
"A greet many things, dear. I happen
to know Ralph's grandmother very well,
so I went to spend the afternoon with
her." -
`11-Itinaph! If she talked all the time
about when she was young and how su-
perior girls were in those days, you must
have enjoyed your afternoon," said the
girl in the purple hat.
"he did, and yet I enjoyed myself
greatly. I talkeda good deal about Lu-
cille, and when I came away the old lady
said that from what I had told her Lu-
cille seemed to be a model girl—one who
would make a splendid wife for any
young man. She added that she meant
to ask her to come to see her and that
she hoped that 1, too, would encournge
her friends -hip, as it could not fail to be
of benefit to me. I forgot to tell you
that Ralph mune to dinner, and I staid
Loo. His grandmother snubbed me po-
litely all the time and lauded Lucille to
the skies."
"Pleasant for you, dear. However"—
"It was pleasant—very. The next day
I went to call on Ralph's married sister."
"And play with the baby! How stupid
of you, when"—
"Nothing of the kind. I excused my-
self when she invited me to the nursery
and casually mentioned that Lucille
thought the baby had the head of a poet
and meant to bring him a silver cup."
"But weren't you carrying matters too
far? I should have"—
"I went further, dear. I called on all
Ralph's, female relatives, made myself
thoroughly disagreeable and mentioned
the fact that Lucille would probably in-
herit a fortune from her grandfather in
the west. I had plenty of time to do this,
because Ralph, who had apparently foie
gotten my existence, went to see Lucille
twice a clay."
. "But I don't see how"— ,
"You will, dear. Ralph's grandmother
told him that she would leave him out of
her will unless he married Lucille. His
sister invited the two to dinner twice a
Week and managed to leave them alone In
the library for an hour each time, while
his aunt told him daily that he and Lu-
cille were made, for each other."
"And the result was?"
"That he grew to detest Lucille so cor-
dially that I felt veiledly safe in saying
'no' the first time he proposed, and that
in itself will give me the upper hand eo
long as I live."— Philadelphia North
