How Little Coiiotto 1'onnil Fortune In Stuffed Cat. In Toris, yours ago, a young girl named Cosette lived in a shabby attic, her old uncle, a rag picker. He yave every evidence of being very poor, jmd the two had many a hardship toen- duro and often experienced cold and lunger. Cosette at length went out to service Hi the household of a tradesman in an. part of the city.

She still retained a worm affection for her old uncle, and every week would bring him a part of ierivages. The restshe carefully saved, before mnny years, she had a sum by, though it was small. She become engaged to be married to a baker, 'and was very happy. But while she was what clothes she should buy witih A GOLDEN. SHOWER.

When her lover, the baker, heard what she had clone, he was furious at, the loss oi her dowry, and ref used, to marry her.

Her employer also was displeased and discharged her. Sadly Cosette found her way again to tho desolate attic, where she wept liitter tears. But she soon took heart again, and determined to seek another fiituation. She took survey of tie room, to see it her uncle hail left anything of use, but there was nothing, save a large, cat, of which they had been very fond. Cosette reached up and lifted this carefully down from its dusty shelf.

It seemed very heavy. As she was moving it port of the hide broke away, and a shower of gold pieces fell to the floor. Her unolo had beien a miser, and for years had secretly hidden his earnings in tills strange receptacle, wfhere he knew they would be safe, as one ever think of treasure being concealed there. Oosette could scarcely believe her pood fortune. When the gold was counted there was a full thousand- louis d'or, equal to about and'- made her wholly independent.

The guilds of Home, however, scarcely answer to our idea of a club, soys tha Cleveland recorder. We therefore tufa with greater confid'ence to Athens, where such a club seems to have oirijr- inated.

Tho old Athenian clubs were not in all respects similar to Uiose of modern London and New' York, but there was nevertheless between ttem strong affinity. Aristotle, who flourished B. C. 384, tells us that men of the same trade and members of, a particular tribe were wont to club together for business purposes. He-goes-ad.

After "almost incredible sulTerinjr, Albert Jackson was rescued from' the schooner Jessie which was-wrecked by the great storm t-hat swept over the gulf ten days ago.

the Jessie P. left St. Andrews' Bay, for Pen'sa- cola there were several passengers on board, one of whom was Jackson. The vessel was caught in storm and was deserted by tbe crew, who- took with, them in the boats all the passengers save Jackson. The latter was asleep in the cabin at the time and was forgotten.

Those who escaped soon missed Jackson, but the storm was too fierce to put back, and the missing- man was supposed to have gone down with the. -vessel. Jessie P. did not go -down, however, and her waterlogged hulk was IN A DEPLORABLE PLIGHT. sighted and boarded by a smack.

As the fishermen were walking about the deck they heard a faint rapping in the cabin. The battened downj but the fishermen broke them cpen and entered the cabin. As they entered they saw the form of Jackson on the floor and a number of large rats gnawing at Jiis legs. As the rats gnawed, Jackson, although unconscious, would strike his feet against the floor, and it was this that caused the rapping. The rats were very fierce, and left their prey reluctantly as the fishermen, approached.

Jackson was taken on deck, nnd after several hours was revived sufficiently to tell of his experience. When he awoke on the night of the storm and found his companions gone and the hatches battened down, his reason almost tottered. He made 'desperate but futile efforts to burst open the hatches. There were few biscuits and a little water cabjn. but the bjead and.

Xew York, Aug. appeal signed by more than 100. physicians ID the United will be pent to the general council of the International Keel Cross society, calling attention to the nonobservance' by Spain in the Cuban war of the stipulations unanimously agreed to at the congress held by the society, in which Spain, as a nation, took part.

It was nt the conference specified that in all international or civil wars the hospitals, wounded men, surgeons and nurses of the enemy should be respected by the contending: panics. Attention called in tho physicians' protest lo the frequent mention made in Spanish official reports of the capture 1 arid destruction by the Spanish troops of the hospitals of the Cuban insurgents. The specific cnse'prcsented is that of a Cuban hospital which was recently captured by the Spanish troops near Ma- tanzus. All the patients with the surgeons, Izpuierdo and Koip, were mach- eted by the Spanish soldiers, as officially reported by the authorities, and printed in all the Havana papers. REPORT CONFIRMED.

How Pile came to be drowned or-how long his body had been in the is a mystery yet to be solved.

Slie will dare with him the rigors of the frozen North, and encouragehim in daring-dangers almost un- able. Women are by nature ambitious according to their physical and mental strength. Hope and ambition ccme with perfect health, but vanish before sickness and despair. American women are, unfortunately, particularly subject to those painful female diseases that are the omse of so much hopelessness and misery. Could all women realize the tmdeni- fact, that they suffer unnecessarily, how much brighter life would be! Lydia E.

Pinkham devoted her life to the study of female diseases and their cause: anil she discovered in the Yegc- table Compound an absolute remedy. It succeeds in removing the cause of the trouble. Women who rely more upon their own natural common-sense, rather than on the theories of their physicians, write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn. and are soon restored to health.

Here is a living example: "Four months ago I was unable to stand on my feet, I had falling of the womb, kidney trouble, and inflammation of the bladder; the backache and bearing- down pains were dreadful. My physician could give me no relief. A friend said, try Lydia. E. PlnkJimts Vegetable Compound.
