Tlie Heat, at Ft. Yuma.
There is a very old story about two
very wicked soldiers who died at Fort.
Yuma and “materialized” a few nights
after to the sergeant in change of the
clothing.
“Well, what do you want?” he asked,
gruffly, for a Tittle thing like death or a
ghost never breaks that official’s habit
of getting angry when a soldier wants
anything, “Want our blankets—must
have ’em—can’t get used to the change
so sudden.”
“Why, where are you located, boys?”
“In hell!”
There are posts nearly 1,000 miles north
of Fort Yuma, on some of the rocky
plateaus in W estern Dakota or Eastern
Montana, where the mercury goes to 50
degs. below every winter and often
rises above 100 degs. in the shade in
summer. There are secluded valleys
even in British America where the mer-
cury marks 110 degs. in the shade every
summer. The sun shines over sixteen
hours a day, and there is no time at
night for the air to cool.—California Let-
ter.

Rheumatism and Catarrh.
Rheumatism and catarrh are both blood dis-
eases. In many severe cases they have yielded
to treatment with B. B. B. (Botonic Blood Bairn)
made by Blood Balm company, Atlanta, Ga. 1
Write for book of convincing proofs. Sent free.
R. P. Dodge, Atlanta, Ga., says: “My wife had
catarrh and nothing did her any good. Her
constitution finally failed and poison got into
her blood, I placed her on a use of B. B. B, and
to my surprise her recovery was rapid and com-
plete.”
W. P. McDaniel, Atlanta, Ga., writes: “I was
much emaciated and had rheumatism so bad J
could not get along without crutches. I also had
neuralgia in the head. First class physicians ,
did me no good. Then I tried B. B. B., and its
effects were magical. I cheerfully recommend
it as a good tonic and quick cure ”
Mrs. Matilda Nichols, Knoxville, Tenn., writes:
“I had catarrh six years and a most distressing
cough, and my eyes were much swollen. Five
bottles of B. B. B., thank God! cured me.”
John M. Davis, Tyler, Texas, writes: “.I was
subject a number of years to spells of inflama-
tory rheumatism, which six bottles of B. B. B.,
thank heaven, has entirely cured. I have not
felt the slightest pain since.”
The Problem Solved.
“There is only one way to secure accuracy
in our signal service bureau,” said the con-
gressman. “That way is to compel the
prophets to confine their observations en-
tirely to last month’s weather.”—Harper’s

out sleighing and to the picture galleries
and theatres, “all on dear old Frances’
account, of course,” she added, with a
spice of merry mischief.
She could not say enough in praise of
Stephen Ellsworth. He was so hand-
some, so stylish; the old Ellsworth man-
sion on State street was so elegant; he
sent her such exquisite cut flowers and
baskets of fruit!
And Frances, reading those letters at
home after her day’s work of school
teaching was over, tried to rejoice in her
young sister’s happiness.
“Mother,” she said one day, “I should
like to see the child in her new dresses.
I think I’ll go up to Albany and surprise
her. Lucy Lampson will take the school
for a week. Dear little Lizzie! how as-
tonished she will be!”
“Wife,” said Farmer Crest hoarsely,
when Frances had gone up to bed, full
of her new plan, “I don’t know’s we
ought to let her go.”
“Why not, Obed?”
“I saw Dr. Jones’ son this morning.
He is just home from the Albany Medi-
cal college, and he says every one is talk-
ing of our Lizzie’s engagement to Cap’n
Ellsworth. ”
“Obed Crest, you’re a-dreamin’!”
“I wish I was, wife—I wish I was!
But it’s only what we’d ought to have
expected. Lizzie is as pretty as a picter
and as frothy as a bowl o’ soapsuds, and
brimful o’ mischief into the bargain.
And Ellsworth’s only a mortal man,
ifter all. Frances ought to have mar-
ried him a year ago, when he wanted
her to do so, only she wouldn’t leave us
until we’d paid the mortgage on the
farm and got even with the world.”
“But, Obed, what are we to do?
can’t tell her!” sobbed the old lady.
“Nor I, neither. There’s no help for
it, wife; she’s got to find it out for her-
self.”
And he let his wrinkled forehead fall
into his hands with a groan.
Just then the door opened.
A tall, slight figure came in like a
gliding shadow.
“I’ve heard it all, father,” said Frances,
“and you mustn’t blame either Stephen
or Lizzie. It—it was only natural. He
has grown tired of waiting for me. And
Lizzie is very lovely. I can’t blame any
man for wanting to make her his wife.
I shall go to Albany, all the same, and
tell them not to mind me. You know’
(with rather a forced smile), “people al-
ways said I was cut out for an old maid
And—and—we three can be very happy
here at home all our lives, can’t we?”
And here poor Frances broke down,
and cried bitterly.
“Don’t mind me,” said she. “I shall
be quite used to it after a while.”
It was a brilliant January afternoon—
the ground covered with snow, the sun
shining with Arctic splendor, and all the
streets musical with the joyous chime of
sleigh bells—when Frances Crest arrived
at Mrs. Rigney’s house in Albany.
“Why — Francie — Crest,” ejaculated
the good lady, “is this you?”
“I came to surprise Lizzie, Aunt Jo-
sie,” said the traveler, smiling faintly.
“Well, it will be a surprise,” said Mrs.
Rigney. “Go right up, dear. She’s in
the parlor with”---
“With Capt. Ellsworth?”
“How on earth did you know?” cried
the comfortable elderly lady. “Has she
written to you?”
“No, not a word,” Frances answered.
“But I know it all, nevertheless.”
She w’ent on and knocked at the par-
lor door.
“Come in!” called Lizzie’s sweet so-
prano voice; and, with a sudden quick-
ening of her heart, she obeyed.
Was that little Lizzie standing by the
fire, one dainty, slippered foot on the
fender, her gleaming silken gown held
up by a slim white hand, while her ex-
quisite profile was outlined against the
ruby velvet of the lambrequin?
She looked more like a princess—a
fairy queen. In this atmosphere of
change and happiness she had fairly
blossomed out like a rose in mid June.
And that tall figure in the shadow be-
yond—
“Frances! Dear, dear Frances!”
In a second Lizzie was in her arms.
“You got my letter, love—the letter 1
wrote to you yesterday—the letter that
told you all?”
“I have received no letter, Lizzie. I
left home early this morning. But—
where is Capt. Ellsworth?”
“Here—right here before your eyes.
Come here, Clarence, and let me intro-
duce you to your new sister, for we are
engaged, Frances, Clarence and I. That
is my mysterious secret.”
The tall figure advanced with a mili-
tary sort of salute.
It was not Stephen at all, but a taller,
younger, less impressive looking man.
Frances bowed in a bewildered way.
“But Stephen, where is Stephen?” she
asked.
“Gone down to Woodfield, Francie,
after you. Because he says he means
there shall be a double wedding if therejs
to be a single one, and he declares he
won’t wait any longer for you to make
up your mind. And how puzzled he will
be, to be sure, when he finds the bird has
flown! Are you very much surprised.
Frances? But, you see, Clarence is in
the regular army; not a mere militia
captain like Stephen. He is stationed in
Florida, and he was spending his leave
of absence with his cousins here in Al-
bany; and so, of course, I couldn’t help
getting acquainted with him, because
Stephen came here every day to talk
about you, and Clarence always came
with him. And—Yes, Clarence; go
away now and get the flowers for the
evening reception at Miss Bird’s, for I’ve
got so much to say to my sister.”
She dismissed her handsome lover
with the nonchalance of a queen, and
then showered caresses anew on Frances.
“Isn’t he splendid, darling?” she cried.
‘And only think, I owe it all to you; for
if it hadn’t been for your sending me
here, I never should have met him at
all. And we’ll telegraph to Stephen at
once, and you will consent to be married
“You shall escape, Lizzie,” said Fran-
ces.

of the tears she shed when Lizzie went

A Brave Soldier.
There are men who, after a battle, die
of imaginary wounds, and there are
others who seem incapable of realizing
actual danger. Of the latter class was a
brave fellow whose courage is thus de-
scribed in Regis de Trobriand’s “Four
Years with the Army of the Potomac.”
He was a strapping Irishman, whom I
found smoking his pipe at the door of
the hall where lay the wounded.
“Well,” said I to him, “how do you
find yourself?”
“Perfectly, colonel. Never better in
my life.”
“Why have you got your face half
covered with bandages, then?”
“Oh, a mere nothing—a scratch,
show it to you.”
“No, I thank you.”
“Yes, yes, you will see what it is.”
Raising compresses and bandages, he
showed me a gaping wound in the place
of the eyebrows, which had been carried
away
“I see,” said I, “that your wound has
not been dressed this morning.”
“No, the doctor put this on yesterday;
but today he’s so busy with the others,
who need his help more than I, that I
didn’t want to bother him.”
“And your eye?"
“Gone. But you see, colonel, it’s only
the left eye, and that will save me the
trouble of closing it while 1 take aim,
which always did bother me. In a fort-
night I’ll be back with the regiment.”
But the brave fellow never did rejoin
his regiment. Before the fortnight was
over he had died of this “mere nothing”
of which he had made so light.—Pitts-

THE NEW 1PHIZE STORY
Is eagerly sought for, read with pleasure or dis-
appointment, is then tossed aside and forgot-
ten. But ladies who read of Dr. Pierce’s Fa-
vorite Prescription, read it again, for they dis-
cover in it something to prize—a messenger of
joy to those suffering from functional derange-
merits or from any of the painful disorders or
weaknesses peculiar to their sex. Periodical
pains, internal inflammation and ulceration,
leucorrhea and kindred ailments readily yield
to its wonderful curative and healing powers.
It is the only medicine for women, sold by
druggists, under a positive guarantee
from the manufacturers, that it will give satis-
faction in every case, or money will be re-
funded. This guarantee has been printed on
the bottle-wrappers, and faithfully carried out
for many years. $1.00 by druggists, or six
bottles for $5.00.

dear?”
“Yes,” said Frances, her eyes brim-
ming over with blissful tears, “I will!”
—Hejen Forest Graves in Philadelphia
Saturday Night.
“Frances don’t care,” pleaded she.
“Frances always was a human icicle.
And I’m so much younger than she is,
and—and”---
“And so much prettier,” quietly spoke
the elder sister. “Yes, Lizzie dear, I
know it.”
Lizzie laughed and tossed her golden
curls.
“At all events,” said she, “I think I
ought to have a fair chance.”
Lizzie’s letters from Albany were full
of life and sparkle. She was like a bird
let loose. Everything was couleur de
rose to her. The gay streets were a
dream of delight; the opera was an actual
reality. Her new dresses filled her with
delight; she was improving so fast in
music and drawing, and she could not ■ at the same time with me—won’t you,
The blue eyes sparkled resentfully.
“Crying? Of course I’ve been crying!”
retorted Lizzie Crest. “Who wouldn’t
cry, to be left alone in this dismal hole
all winter long, while you are enjoying
yourself in the city? But I won’t stay
here. I’ll run away and go on the stage,
or else I’ll drown myself, in Packer’s
pool!”
“Lizzie! Lizzie! think what you
saying!”
“I don’t care!” pouted Lizzie. “What
is life worth in a place like this?”
And she burst into a fresh flood of
tears.
Frances sat down and took the golden
head tenderly into her lap.
All her life long she had been accus-
tomed to subordinate her will to that of
this lovely, tempestuous sprite. What
signified one sacrifice more or less?
“Don't cry any more, Lizzie!” she
whispered. “I’ve made up my mind.
You shall go to Aunt Josie instead of
me.”
“I?”
“And I’ll wait another year,” added
Frances, swallowing a lump in her
throat. “You shall have the music les-
sons and the art lectures; you shall see
what a winter in the city is like. ”
Lizzie’s eyes sparkled; her cheeks were
red. She flung her arms around Frances’
neck, with a sudden cry of rapture.
“Oh, Frances, you don’t really mean
it?”
“Yes, I do,” bravely uttered Frances.
“But mother won’t consent.”
“I will see to that.”
Once more Lizzie showered soft, warm
kisses on her sister’s cheek.
“Oh, you darling! you sweet, guar-
dian angel!” she cried. “And I am a
selfish little beast to allow you to sacri-
fice yourself in this outrageous fashion.
But if you knew how I have longed to
escape from this dreadful groove of
housework, and sewing, and butter mak-
“Lizzie has gone again,” said Mrs.
Crest. ' Lizzie’s no sort of use to me of
late, I don’t know what’s come to the
child, but she does act to me as if she
was bewitched."
Frances Crest set down the blue
rimured plate she was wiping with a
coarse homespun towel
“ Where is she, mother?” said she.
“Ou! in the woods. I suppose. It’s
whei e she always goes."
“Mother you must remember that
Lizzie is young. Don’t be hard upon
her!" pleaded Frances
Mrs. Crest was Farmer Obed Crest's
second wile, and Frances, the tali, pale
girl with the somber brown, eyes and
the oval, colorless face, was the good
woman's /stepdaughter, while pretty

only child

put a deal more dependence on Frances
than' 1 do on Lizzie Frances is. all the
same to me as my own child!
“Hard upon her!" she repeated queru
loush ‘What I’m afraid of is that I’m
too eiisx with her She’s always had
her own way in everything And she
takes it dreadful hard that you should
be going to Albany and she left at home.
I never knew .such nonsense in my life!’
A disturbed expression passed over
Frances' face.
“Its natural she should
mother,” she urged gently.
Frances Crest had diligently taught
school for three consecutive seasons tc
earn the money for this coveted winter
in Albany, during which she had prom-
ised herself to take music lessons and
add to her knowledge of art and litera-
ture.
For she was engaged to Stephen Ells-
worth, and she longed with an exceed-
ing great desire to make herself worthy
of his love.
“I’m only a country girl,” she said to
herself, “and he lives in the city, where
I he is meeting brilliant women every
day. And it would be dreadful if, after
we were married, he should be ashamed
of me!”
Mrs. Rigney, a distant cousin of the
Crests, had offered to give Frances a
home for the winter for what use she
could render in household matters, and
the money she had saved was to be spent
in suitable dress, lessons and other ex-
penses.
And, best of all, she would see Stephen
Ellsworth every day.
She finished her household tasks and
went quietly out to the nook in the woods
where she knew that she should find
Lizzie.
And here, with her head leaning list-
lessly against a tree trunk, sat a lovely
girl of scarcely eighteen, with deep blue
eyes, full, cherry red lips, and a com-
plexion like a balsam flower. One hand
was immersed in the cool, running water;
the other held a crumpled pocket hand-
kerchief, drenched with tears.
“Lizzie!” exclaimed Frances,
