. 'J, clever American lady who is doing
such, good work for temperance and pro-

:Woking chair all I wua shown into the
study in the Cottage, Reigate, says A. G.
.in London Sketoh, where she has 80 often
stayed with her fellow -enthusiast, Lady
Henry Somerset, but she sprang up with
eharacteristio &energy, and, with just a ,
sufficiency of New Hampshire accent in
her pleasant voice to give it piquancy,
bade me welcome. Her fine, olearly-cut
features, alive with intelligence and crown-
ed by pretty, wavy hair, lighted up with
good nature as she grasped nig by the hand'
With kindly cordiality.
"I shall not make any apology for inter-
viewing you, Miss Willard," I remarked,
"as you come from the home par excellence
of the interviewer."
With the pleasant smile that is charac-
teristics of her, Miss Willard responded at
once to the suggestion,
• "I am sure no apology is necessary. I
can't understand why people should ob-
jeot to talk to one another. When the
;,,_universal brotherhood of man, of which
we hear so much but see so little in reality,
oomes to pass there will be no isolation.
Why hedge one's self round? The more
hands one can clasp the more help we oan
give each other. Besides, I am a good
deal of a journalist myself."
"You have something to do with Lady
Henry Somerset's paper, I suppose?"
"Yes, a little; but I don't refer to that
only. Of oourae, every paper means in-
cessant care. It gives one no more rest
than a teething ohild. It is, like walking,
one series of prevented falls. But I don't
object to being kept on the alert. .As
Queen Elizabeth said: "Life is a bog; if
you stand still, you oink."
"Do I understand that you have or have
had a paper of your own?"
"With my dear brotherwho is dead,
Oliver Willard. For his sake as well as
humanity's, I love the press. I like to
think of the press as a sky full of white
wings—ah, yes! a few black ones, no
doubt, while white for the most part. I
have found it very helpful in my temper-
peranoe work.
You are still an active journalist,
though, are you not?" -
Oh, yes; I edit the Chicago Union Sig-
nal, the organ of the white ribbon move-
ment all over the world. We do 90,000 a
week, and our subscription list at ti dollar
a year is enormous... it is not a bigoted
paper.. I love tolerance."
"To know all is to forgive."
"Yes. Curipue yon should say that. A
lady I k ort very well—one who doesn't
live in •ar teacup—was once told by some-
bod /'Yoq are too kind."'No, it is not
t I am kind at all; it is that I know!'"
'"It is not, however, very often that tem-
perance enthusiasts are so generous in their
iss
views."
"Well, for my own part, I believe so
oompletely that many people can scarcely
help being what they are that it may make
me broader than some in my views of hn-
man nature. People talk of free will, but
it is only, after all, like a drop of water in
a crystal. It can move, but only within
.- the -limits -of : its environment, : Win: _ raYs
opinion all reformers must trade back their
policy to heredity if they are to do any
good.. We must not ride our hobby to
death for want of a drink—the right sort
of a drink, of course."
"It is with that idea, I suppose, that the
White Ribbon League attacks many other.
evils besides intemperance?" '
"Yes; we have forty different lines which
we have already taken up, and there is no
reason why we should not take up eighty,
if they help ns to dissect out the aching
alcoholnerve from the body politic."
j`The work involved must be immense?''
bIt is tolerably heavy, but, odd as you
may think the expression, the greatest fun
as well as the highest joy is to be got out
of life by a evariety of occupation. Just
as-abee wings from flower to flower. so we
touch every phase of social life, and while
it is good for the bee to gather honey its
work is also food for the hive. There is
nothing in the world like work. I believe
in constant occupation. The mind recoils
upon itself if it is not projected on man-
kind, and that way madness lies. If I
meet anyone who goes sighing all the day
in a morbid state of mind, I tell them to
coin their sighs iuto work, and they won't
know them for sighs any longer. I always
feel awfully sorry for invertebrate and
melancholy people of that kind, and I put
it down mostly to bad heredity—so far, I
am an Ibsenite; they start languidly; they
lack iron in their blood and granite in their
bones. It is no good trying to force food
down the throats of nonworkers in the
name of charity, as though they were so
many turkeys to be crammed for Christ-
mas. They must be made to work for
themselves. The first necessity of a re-
forming philanthropist is to be infinitely
patient in teaching the helpless to de.
velop their latent powers of self-support.
Science is the divinity of to -day and 1
think it is good to think it one manifesta-
tion of the Spirit of God. f am glad, too,
that it is being applied to philanthropic
work. Sydney Webb is the Darwin of
charity and is reduoing it to a scientific
system. The coming man, or, it may be,
the coming woman will reduce beneficence
to as exact a science as electricity, and will
be the greatest good angel the world has
ever known. At present our philantrophy
is hit or mise—generally miss. We take
people's dignity and individuality and con-
vert them into parasites, in which capacity
they are little better than any other ver-
min. Of course, all this reform will be
uphill work. So many prejudices have to
be got over, and the prejudices of so many
eminently respectable people. Heavy me-
diocrity is sitting on the breast of progress,
but she will rise, for it is her nature to,
and the laws of nature are irrevocable and
constant. Every human being ought to
receive of right in exchange for his or her
work all the necessities of life. 'If a man
will not work, neither shall he eat,' so
eaith the Scripture, but, per contra, a
better citation, Saye, `If he will work, lie
shall eat.' "
"And then?"
"And then the present system of so-called
and well -intended benevolent effort will
come to be regarded as nothing less than a
grime."
"That is rather hard upon a good many
mon and women of to -day."
"No, it is hard on the system, the mis-
taken system on whioh they work, not
upon them. For one thing, they are too.

THEIR NAME IS LEGION.
Realer there are many blood purifiying
medicines.
There is but one Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Do not allow high,eounding advertie•
menta or other devices to turn you from
your purpose to take Hood's Sarsaparilla,
because in this purpose you are right and
will not be disappointed in the result.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is an honest medi-
cine, honestly advertised, effects honest
cures, and gives every patron a fair equiva•
lent for his money. What more can you
reasonab y ask?
A fair trial guarantees a oomplete oure.

A dastardly attempt at train wreck
ing is reported from Wingham. A
few nights ago as the evening express
from Palmerston and Kincardine was
approaching a bridge between Blue -
vale and Wingham the driver noticed
an obstruction on the track, but not in
time to prevent his engine from strik-
ing. On examination it was found
that a large tie has been securely placed
between the needle beams of the
bridge. The damage to the engine was
slight, •but a serious accident might
have occutred had it not been noticed
lin time. Detective are at work on the
case.
A GOOD APPETITE.
Always accouipaniee good health, and an
absence. of appetite is an indication of
something wrong. The universal teeti-
•mony giver by those who have used Hood's
Sarsaparilla, as to its merits in restoring
the appetite, and as a purifier of the blood,
constitutes the strongest recommendation

RED HAIRED GIRLS OUTNUMBERED.
A'Practical Test of the Superstition About
the White Horses.
,My chum and roommate was a confirmed
victim of the betting habit. He would
wager his money upon the most absurd
propositions and in the most reckless man-
ner, and the oddest part of it was that he
really felt hurt if I refused to take up hia
crazy wagere. The result was that he
usually paid my share of our room rent as
well as his own, but this never worried
him for a moment. He was a cheerful
and steady loser and upon all other sub-
jects he was perfectly sane.
Ile once remarked to me that he wasn't
at all superstitious, but he did think it odd
that one never could see a red-headed girl
without immediately encountering a white
horse.
I remarked that I didn't take any stook
in that ancient notion, and„anyhow, there
were so many more white horses than there
were red-haired girls that it wouldn't be
strange if he could find a white horse for
every red-haired girl.
He challenged the proposition instantly
that the number of horses exceeded the
number of girls, and of course, pro-
posed to bet that he was right.
To give him a reasonable chance I re-
fused an "even” bet, but proposed that
we walk up Fifth avenue from Madison
square to Sixty-fifth street, and if I didn't
count three white horses for every red-
haired girl we met then I would pay the
next month's rent.
Ivry chum jumped at this three -to -one
chance and we started to test the question.
The white horses kept well ahead of the
girls at first, though not quite in the ratio
of three to one, and the result seemed in
doubt until we `approached the cathedral.
Then we encountered a throng of women,
young and old, pouring out from service.
We kept count conscientiously, and when
that crowd had passed my end of the bet
seemed hopeless. The white horses had
been not only overtaken, but they were
outnumbered by a total of twenty-seven
girls to nineteen horses.
But I didn't despair; I knew as the
afternoon wore on the Park entrance
would help me out in the matter of white
horses. And so they did. As we went on
northward the red. haired girls all seemed
to have been transported toZanother
sphere, while whole processions of white
horses were streaming in both directions
almost as fast as we could count them.
I won the bet. The horses scored a total
of 105 and the girls only 34, so I had just
three white horses to spare.—New York
Herald.
SUFFERED FOR TWELVE YEARS.
Mr Geo. A. Williams, the extensive
manufa starer of fruit baskets, Thorold,
writes: —"I suffered very severely from
sick and nervous headaches and billions -
flees fcr over twelve years and had tric d
al' the advertised pills, potvdere, and otl er
medicines, but obtained very little relief,
until about two years ago 1 began using
StA»k's Powders and since then have been
fiko a different man and now seldom have
a headache. If I have any tendency that
wa,yStark's Powders give immediate relief.'

The Baron' Dltuwhausen,
Soutbey wrote to Sir Walter Scott, "Of
Baron 1lltinohauseu I oan tell you some-
thing. Some years ago in London I was a
little startl d at hearing a foreigner usher-
ed under this title into a musical party.
As this naturally led to enquiries ou my
part, I was relerred to the gentleman him-
self, who very good humoredly told me he
was the nephew of the celebrated Baron
Munchausen, who was a minister under
Frederick of Prussia.
"It seems fixe old baron was a humorist,
who after dinner, especially if he happened
to have any guests who were likely to be
taken in by hie marvels, used to amuse
himself inventing or relating such marvel-
ous adventures as are contained in the
volumes which bear his name. He added
that his uncle was in other respecte, a
sensible, veracious man, and that his ad-
ventures were only told by the way of
quizzing or amusing society.
"A starving German literatus, whose
name I have forgot, who knew the baron
and thought he had been neglected by him,
compiled the book in revenge, partly from
the stories of the baron, 'partly from other
sources, and partly from his mother wit.
It proved a good hit for the bookseller, as
the baron's name and humor were well
known, and by degrees made its way into
other countries as a book of entertain-
ment."—Familiar Letters of Walter Scott.

Antiquity of Advertising.
Advertising is not an outcome of modern
necessity, but is a very ancient practice.
The British Museum possesses a collection
of old Greek advertisements printed on
leaden plates. The Egyptians were great
advertisers. Papyrus -leaves over 3,090
years old have been found et Thebes de-
scribing runaway slaves and offering a re-
ward for their capture ; and at Pompeii
ancient advertisements have been deciph-
ered on the walls. Thus, a busiuess man,
by insertiug an advertisement in this
paper, will not only command a larger
trade, but he may be perpetuating his
name and his occupation forever.

I think one of the most needed"inven•

It should be collapsible, small and cov-
ered, and would indeed be a boon to men.
I have often pitied poor fellows on a wild
night, trying in vain to light their pipes,
and dodging behind every corner and pro-
jection. They would bless the inventor of

NEEDED INVENTIONS.
Things That Might Fin Various Long -
Felt Wants.
London Answers recently invited its
readers to suggest various "needed in-
ventions." Here are a few of the many
suggestions :
The Pencil of the Future.
The article which in my idea would be
the most satisfactory invention to the pub-
lic at large would be a pencil which, in-
stead of being filled with the ordinary
plumbago, should be filled with some oom-
position which woulki write as indelibly as
ink without smudging, and would en-
able us to write with the smoothness of a
pencil
This would do away with the scratching,
spluttering, dirty, corroding pen. Besides,
the time lost alone in dipping a pen in the
ink is considerable.
"The inventor of such a pencil would con-
fer a boon upon the public.
Automatic Omnibus Starters.
What invention would be more humane
and, I should imagine, possible than the
following?
A spring capable of being applied to
amnibuses and similar vehicles that are re-
quired to be stopped and started very often,
and so constructed that it would act like
an ordinary brake in stopping the vehicle,
but would, when released, again start the
vehicle of its own accord.
It would effect an enormous saving in
the number of horses now yearly worn out
in this unnecessary labor.
An Overcoat Lifter.
The majority of fellows find it a bother
to get their overcoats on. I think an in-
vention for holding and lifting an over-
coat would be a good thing.
My idea would be for the maohine to
hold the coat with two spring clips on two
arms, to work by clock -work, and by a
series of gentle jerks, to lift the coat to the
required height. It would haves spring
at the bottom; which being pressed
by one's heel would instantly release the
coat.
The machine could he made both
ornamental, simple, and cheap, and
could also be used as a hat and umbrella
stand.

COLOR HEARING,
pr. Colman's Interesting Theory About
the -Relation of Sounds to Colors.
John Locke's blind man, who hazarded
the guess that the color scarlet was proba-
bly something like the sound of a trum-
pet, is generally thought to have simply
epokeu according to his lights, or rather
lack of lighte, but it appears. from Dr,
W. S. Colman's artfolea on this subjeot
that we have now laid the foundation of
a science of color -hearing. The term is
defined by him as applying to the apeoial
ease in whioh a oolor sensation is ex-
cited by .some auditory stimulus—as, for
example, by the pronunciation of the
vowel sounds. It is not a matter of asso-
ciation, as in the case of the "shrill
squeak" evoked by the filing of a saw or
the drawing of a slate . penoil down a
slate. Dr. Colman estimates the number
of people whp possesses the faculty of
Dolor -hearing as under 12 per cent., and
mentions a ease described by Flournoy, in
which the vowel "i" awakened the impres-
sion of an orange circle with an "i' in
blank in the centre.
Theophile Gautier, ander the influence
of -hasheesh, heard the sound equivalents
(whatever They may have been) of vari-
ous colors. The notion is, at all events, of
respectable antiquity. Dr. Colman cites
as believere sin color -hearing Hoffman,
Goethe and Hans Sachs, and refers to the
case of St. Catharine, of Siena, who had a
"bright red Dolor sensation whenever she
saw or thought of the Host." The Lancet,
which comments learnedly on Dr. Colman's
theories, feels disposed to think that the
red ribbon whioh adorns the dark -blue
bonnet of the members of the Salvation
Army is a parallel case, and not difficult
to explain on the principles of conventional
metaphor.—London Daily News,
