beautiful wife, bad tier mind much dis-
turbed at the moaned of her great elm- •

but she ain't. Ii you don't believe me

She proceeded to investigate the ease
and found the statements true. Cons
fronting the wife with the proofs, the
wife confessed to her husband that there
was a slight drop of African blood in
her veins. Her grandmother was mu.
latto; her grandfather white; SQ wt her
father. The grandmother was addicted
to gambling, and had, under threat of
exposing her, obtained large 8,11111$ furn

dives and policy sho)r.. Harassed by
the reproaches of her husband for
spending so much mare money than
she could. account for, the granddaugh-

mother, who had originally opposed the

The husband is inclined to stand by Ws
wife, but his mother insists on loe be-
gi:nning a suit for divorce. The mar.
riage, however, is legal.

A negro at Louisville could not be
placed under the influence of ether and
anesthetics when physicians desired to
perform a surgical operation upon him,
and so one of the doctors mesmerized
him and kept him under mesmeric in-
fluence for two hours, or until the opera-
tion was over. When the patient was
aroused he stated that he had. all the
time been conscious of what was going
on,but had felt no pain.

Although Chicago won't believe it,
St. Louis, as a city, lies in an atmos-
phere of poetic legend and story. With-
in three miles front the business center,
on the Illinois side, at the old Prench
town of Cahokitt, generations are born,
live and die,who do not speak the Eng-

Some of the literary men of America
have been severely handled by a Balti-
more critic. He says: "James is a tuft -
hunter and sycophant, Howells a
smooth -bore,. Stedman a dead failure.
Stoddard a man who has turned his
wash -bowl into as paste -pot, Cable a
blower of literary soap bubbles, and
Richard Grant White a critic who dis-
covered in a cockney beauty with legs
like a piano and a voice like a fog -horn

used part of a bottle of A Viin's loon,

Tito vioca is also a sure euro for dandruff. Not

Axons ZaranAntn; leader of the cele-
brated" Fairbairn Family" of Scottish Vocalists,
writes from Boston, Muss.,Feb. 6, 1880: "Ever
