Personal. Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes will celebrate his seventieth birthday on the 29th of this month. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe has been spending the hot season at the Bay View Hose, Ferry Beach, Maine. Jay Gould has contributed a second $5,000 to the Memphis relief fund. "May his shadow never grow less." The pew which W. H. Seward used to occupy at Anburn has been made into a cupboard, and is owned by a citizen of that town. Germany does not pay high salaries. Prince Bismarck receives only $13,500 as Prussian Minister and Chancellor of the Empire. The first honors of the graduating class at Wealeyan University, Connecticut, were won by Miss Caroline Laura Rice, a lady only 20 years old, somewhat to the chagrin of the young men. The $65,500 quarterly interest which James C. Flood draws on $5,000,000 invested in five per cent. government bonds with a little more than pay for his new stable at Menlo Park. It is said that Mr. Flood has $5,000,000 more in four per cents. Gen. Longstreet, now Postmaster of Gainesville, Ga., has a sad face, frank, gray eyes, massive jaws, a strong mouth, and white silken mustache and side whiskers. He bears a striking likeness to the Emperor William. His right arm, which received many wounds is paralyzed. Nellie Grant, or more properly speaking, Mrs. Algernon Sartoris, is not dead. The lady will have the pleasure of reading many thousand highly compliantary obituaries of herself, and we hope she will live until 1900. But how the cable blundered! How the writers of special London patches were fooled! It was Mrs. F. W. Sartoris who died. Martha Rodgers, who died a few days ago at Middletown, Conn., for fifty years possessed a fortune; but she was constantly dreading poverty, and regularly spent a part of her time gathering rags and other discarded things in the streets. A room in her house was filled with such rubbish! Yet she gave money liberally for charitable and religious purposes, while she lived, and by her will left $25,000 to various institutions. Anecdotes of the Stage. Mr. Gilbert relates the following incident in regard to an actor of the olden school named Foote. This gentleman, when he was sober, was a valuable addition to any company, but, like a great many other valuable men on the stage at that time—men of a class now seldom met with—he would sometimes drink more than his legs would carry. One evening when in this condition he came into the theater and announced, just as the curtain was going up, that he had not been able to learn his part, but that he was sure he could read it correctly if the audience would allow him to do so. In despair the stage manager went before the curtain, stated that Mr. Foote had been too unwell to learn his part, and asked if the ever generous public, etc., would bear with him while he read it. The "ever generous public," represented by the gallery boys, consented to bear with him, and the play commenced. When it was time for Foote to go on, however, he suddenly discovered that he could not see to read, and wildly called for a pair of spectacles. Again the stage manager, who seems to have been a rather innocent sort of person, went to the footlights, and asked if Mr. Foote might wear his spectacles while reading his part. The occupants of the gallery, who were particularly good-humored, cried "Yes, yes; let him have his spectacles," and the manager bowed his thanks and retired. But still Foote was not satisfied. He declared that the spectacles were not enough, that no gentleman could be expected to strain his eyes in the dim light of the stage, darkened as it would be during his scenes, and in all earnestness he vowed he would not read his part unless he was allowed to do so by the light of a candle. This was more than even the easy-going manager could bear, and the curtain was rung down, while arrangements were made to supply Foote's place. While at the Princess Theater, during Mr. Gilbert's engagement, Mr. Macready was playing "Richelieu" to a crowded house, and seemed to be in a particularly good humor for him. All went well until one scene in which, while the "Cardinal" is seated at one end of the stage, "Joseph" goes to a door at the other, and opening it, announces "Marion Delorme." Mr. Gilbert was playing the part of "Joseph," Advice to a Grades.

Whing when you are tired to drop with an aunt Sallie trudging Martha Rodgers, who died a few days ago at Middletown, Conn., for fifty years possessed a fortune; but she was constantly dreading poverty, and regularly spent a part of her time gathering rags and other discarded things in the streets.

Mr. George W. Childs is the fortunate owner of an original MS. of Lowell's poem, "Under the Willows," of the complete MS. of Dickens's "Mutual Friend," and of portions of the MS. of Byron's "Bride of Abydos." Mr. Childs has also letters from Dickens, from Hawthorne and from countless other authors; and better than all, the last letter that Washington ever wrote, dated six days before his death. M. de Lesseps is quoted as telling an odd story concerning himself. When he went to Amiens in 1822, to take his baccalaureate degree, the examiner placed before him a geographical chart, and asked him what were the four cardinal points. The candidate was unable to answer the question. In short, he obtained excellent marks for his Greek and Latin, but he ran aground on his geography. He has changed somewhat since those days. Colonel J. G. Fair, who has been visiting the King and Queen of the Sandwich Islands, relates a pleasant little story of a water excursion which he took with them. When they approached the island which was their destination, the breakers were found to be so boisterous that no small boat could land. Not at all discouraged, the King jumped overboard, the Queen after him, and both swam with exceeding grace and coolness to the shore. Gen. Washington is said to have stopped his horse, as he was once riding along a country road, to administer this robuke to a profane ploughman: "My friend, I am older than you, have many times been placed in positions of difficulty and danger, and have had many things to perplex and annoy me, but I have always found that it did no good to get angry; and that neither broken plough nor anything else can be mended or made better by the use of profane language." Detroit Currency. The bump of curiosity was more largely developed in forty-seven Chicago men than in the same number of women examined by a phronologist. A Virginia Judge holds that a husband cannot be slandered by his wife. They are one in the eyes of the law, and she has a right to slander either half. Peanuts may not be a certain cure for consumption, but the more you eat of them the more you will encourage the man who invented the sheetiron roaster. They tell of a big grindstone in Troy which burst the other week and throw pieces seven miles. We never believe in anything where the distance is over While at the Princess Theater, during Mr. Gilbert's engagement, Mr. Macready was playing "Richelieu" to a crowded house, and seemed to be in a particularly good humor for him. All went well until one scene in which, while the "Cardinal" is seated at one end of the stage, "Joseph" goes to a door at the other, and opening it, announces "Marion Delorme." Mr. Gilbert was playing the part of "Joseph," and at the proper time went to the door, opened it, and made the announcement, standing aside to allow the actress who was playing the part of "Marion" to enter. She did so, staggered across the stage to where Macready was waiting for what he made one of his great scenes, and dropped at his feet so limp and powerless from drink that she could not speak a word. With a look of mute appeal to the flies, and the ejaculation, "Great heaven! what have I done to deserve this?" he began slowly to rise from his chair, and the curtain fell. As it did so, Macready still enacting the part of an old and feeble man, even after he was out of sight of the audience, tottered feebly to his feet, looked at the prostrate actress, and muttering, "Beast! beast!" still with the shaking limbs of Richelieu, walked slowly off the stage to his dressing-room. Then there was an uproar in the theater; the occupants of the pit cheered, the people in the galleries shouted, and the stage manager, at his wits' ends, went to the "star dressing-room," and knocking timidly, called: "Mr. Macready! Mr. Macready!" "Well, sir, well; what is it?" came in slow and measured tones from the dressing-room. "I want to know what we are to do, sir," wailed the unfortunate stage manager. "Do, sir, do—how the devil do I know what you are to do? It was not I who made 'Marian Delorme' drunk!" But if you please, Mr. Macready, won't you go on the stage again? "Of course I will, of course—I am here to do my duty, but I must have a sober 'Marion Delorme.' Don't stand there whimpering, now, but get me a 'Marion Delorme,' and straightway the manager rushed to find some one who could play the part. At last he succeeded; Macready was induced to take his seat on the stage. The curtain rose! Gilbert announced "Marion Delorme," and the old woman of the company, very fat and ugly, who could have played "Mother Frochard" to life, tramped across the stage to the "Cardinal." Macready looked at her raised his shaking hands to the flies, and groaned aloud, but she was sober, knew her lines, and he went on with the play. A Hard Head. Every man graduated from Williams college in the past twenty-five years has some recollections of Abe Parsons, or Abe "Bunter," as he is more commonly called, from his bunting propensities. A correspondent of the Boston Journal writes: "Little was known of his early candle.

They toll of a big grindstone in Troy which burst the other week and threw pieces seven miles. We never believe in anything where the distance is over six. Manton Marble used to say that it was as easy to love a rich widow as a poor school-girl, and when he got ready to love, he loved a widow and $150,-000. A Baltimore tailor worked all day to finish a suit of clothes for a customer who committed suicide Monday morning before paying his bill. "Twas a mean trick." A man who has neither friends nor influence has no business to break the law. A man who has both should——Well, he'll break it often enough without advice. The man who has studied Shakspeare for years may find out how little he really knows about these things by sitting on the veranda of a country tavern one summer evening. When "antelope steak" is placed on the table of a far Western noel the man who has traveled at once realizes the fact that the landlord is trying to get rid of some old beef. A St. Louis professional says that the garrote is the only safe, sensible and decent way to rob a man. It leaves him with a core throat, but potash lozenges soon help that. They have not yet, in all their searches at Pompeii, discovered a saloon tumbler with a bottom any thicker than the sides. That trick was left to Yankee ingenuity 2,000 years later. A great many business men still use the old-fashioned quill pen, but we notice that they don't pay any more on the dollar when they fail than those who write with a piece of chalk. When a handsome Baltimore lady asked a pedestrian to knock a man down who had been following her swiftly obeyed, and was not much astonished to learn that it was her husband. Every man graduated from Williams college in the past twenty-five years has some recollections of Abe Parsons, or Abe "Bunter," as he is more commonly called, from his bunting propensities. A correspondent of the Boston Journal writes: "Little was known of his early life, but he was owned as a slave and ran away to obtain his freedom. The story is told of his recognizing the picture of his old mistress, who had aided him to escape, in the room of one of the students, who was her son; and that after that she used to send him aid. The most powerful blows have no effect on his cranium. Two inch planks are shivered at a single blow, and large sticks of wood broken in two. At an agricultural fair he was once giving an exhibition of his powers by breaking cheeses, which had been placed in bags, but a grind-stone had been substituted for one of them. The first blow failed to break it, but nothing daunted, he made the attempt the second time, and sure enough, broke it quite to pieces. At a fire once some men were trying to break in a strong door with axes, but they did not succeed in making an entrance till his power was put in use, when the door quickly yielded. A thousand stories might be told of his wonderful feats, but nothing has brought him into notoriety so much as his connection with J. Frank Baxter, the spiritualistic camp-meetings at Lake Pleasant, Baxter brought up his spirit and gave a detailed account of his exploits, but Abe proved too lively a ghost for him, as he was not dead, although reports of his death had been published. He is now about seventy years of age; but though he has given up some of his feats, he can still make quick work with a dry goods box or door of ordinary thickness. Last year the aggregate steel production of the world was somewhat over 2,-000,000 tons. Of this quantity the United States made 732,226 tons. Great Britain 807,527. Germany 240,000. France 140,900, Belgium 75,000. Sweden 20,000 and Austria 25,000. Advice to a Graduate. Remember that the world is older than you are, by several years; that for thousands of years it has been so full of smarter and better young men than yourself that their feet stuck out of the former windows; that when they died the old globe went whirling on, and not one man in ten millions went to the funeral or even heard of their death. Be as smart as you can, of course. Know as much as you can without blowing the packing off your cylinder-heads; shed the light of your wisdom abroad in the world, but don't dazzle people with it. And don't imagine a thing is so simply because you say it is. Don't be too sorry for your father because he knows so much less than you do. The world has great need of young men, but no greater need than the young men have of it. Your clothes fit you better than your father's fit him; they cost more money, they are more stylish; your mustache is neater, the cut of your hair is better, and you are prettier, oh, far prettier than "pa." But, young man, the old gentleman gets the biggest salary, and his homey, scrambling signature on the business end of a check will drain more money out of the bank in five minutes than you could get out with a ream of paper and a copper-plate signature in six months. Young men are useful, and they are ornamental, and we all love them, and we couldn't engineer a picnic successfully without them. But they are no novelties. Oh, no, nothing of the kind. They have been here before. Don't be so modest as to shut yourself clear out; but don't be so fresh that you will have to be put away in the cool to keep from spoiling. Don't be afraid that your merit will not be discovered. People all over the world are hunting for you, and if you are worth finding they will find you. A diamond isn't so easily found as a quartz pebble, but people search for it all the more intently.—Burlington Hawkee. The Old Maid. What would this earth be without the "old maid?" She comes like a ray of sunshine into our homes, lightening our cares by her sprightly ways and friendly gossip. What is more cheering when you are tired out and almost ready to drop with fatigue than to see aunt Ballie trudging up the walk as if The Influence of Climate. The influence of climate upon a constitution subjected to a trying change in atmospheric conditions, in water, and in food, is often marked and disastrous. Disorders of the bowels and of the liver, frequently terminating fatily, are prone to attack the tourist by land or seawater in unaccented latitudes—more pertinent those near the equator. The best medicinal protection against irregularities of the bowels, stomach and liver, not only from the above but whatever cause arising. Is Horslett's Stomach Bitters, a medicine in wide ad-increasing demand in salty portions of this nemisphere, and also in the tropics. Travelers emigrants, dwellers and temporary journers in marriable districts use it very extensively as a safeguard. Unexampled Popularity. The San Francisco Weekly Chronicle continues to hold rank as the first weekly publication on the Coast. Eight pages in size, brightly printed, overflowing with news, and every inch of space utilized to the best advantage, it well deserves the unexampled popularity it enjoys. The great variety of its contents is only equaled by their interest and value. We know of no rival to this splendid paper. It is a mistake to imagine that the violent passions only, such as ambition and love, can triumph over the rest. Idleness, langued as it is, often masters them all. A World of Good. One of the most popular medicines now before the American public, is Hop Bitters. You see it everywhere. People take it with good effect. It builds them up. It is not as pleasant to the taste as some other Bitters as it is not a whisky drink. It is more like the old fashioned boneset tea that has done a world of good. If you don't feel just right try Hop Bitters.—Nanda News. A Healthy System Is the only sure promoter of happiness. People with a diseased liver are always miserable and make others unhappy about them by their glomy moods. Blood-shot eyes and an aching head are often indications of such derangements of the liver. Ask your druggist for a bottle of Turner's Regulator and take this medicine from time to time, and you will thank the man who placed the article within your reach. Important to Miners. For a long time miners and scientific men have been looking for some method of working rebellious ores at small cost. At last they have it in the Robertson Process which will extract all the gold and silver from ore at a cost of three dollars per ton, except ores which contain lead. On such ores the process is more expensive but much cheaper than the ordinary method. For full participation, address John A. Robertson, box 532, Oakland, Cal. THE HISTORY OF THE DONNER PARTY.

She comes like a ray of sunshine into our homes, lightening our cares by her sprightly ways and friendly gossip. What is more cheerful when you are tired out and almost ready to drop with fatigue than to see aunt Ballie trudging up the walk as if she was bound to help some one if her strength only held out? Off comes her bonnet, up go her sleeves and the domestic wheel is set in motion at a two-forty rate. Blessings on her! She carries sunshine wherever she goes and before you take her for a target at which she bestowed her affections has been taken from this world to gain a home up higher. Be that as it may, her path is a lone one, and it behooves us to help to smooth her pathway as she treads it all alone. If you must have a target to aim at, take the set married woman who, alone with her husband, keeps her old maid establishment in her "touch me if you dare" style and has allowed the "crow's feet" to gather on her once youthful face in trying to keep the house with such scrupulous neatness that she may gain the name of being a "model house-wife." For my part, give me the "single" old maid, for it might well be said she is the salt of the earth, while it may be said of the married one that she is the pepper, and I think I should pick up my heels at a pretty good rate before I should allow her to empty her pepper box over my sensitive pate. PATIENCE H. A Striking Example. The first Napoleon gave many striking examples of military tact. The familiar one of his saying to his army, at the battle of the Pyramids, "Soldiers, forty centuries look down upon you," is perhaps, the most noted of these. And, possessing this quality himself, he was swift to appreciate it in others. An illustration of this given in the story of a certain review of troops where the emperor's hat blew off and a young lieutenant, running forward, caught it and handed it to its owner. "Thank you, captain," said the emperor, bowing. "In what regiment, sire?" was the ready response, which won for the young lieutenant an immediate promotion. Who but he could have met the haughty inquiry as to his antecedents which the Emperor of Austria made, citing his own descent from Rodelph of Hapsburg, with such a telling retort as the one he gave in saying he "was the Rodolph of Hapsburg of his house?"

Had Never Heard the Name.—Anent the wonderful likeness of Prince Jerome to Napoleon I., which is perhaps the best of his political capital, the following instance of the vanity of glory is related of the prince personally. He was traveling in the mountains of Auvergne, and having left his carriage to walk a few miles, he had occasion to ask his way from a young peasant, and rewarded him with a piece of silver. It happened to be one with the effigy of Napoleon I., and having noticed the fact, the prince asked the young man whether he knew who he was. "No, sir, I don't," was the reply. "Look at that piece of silver; don't you see the likeness?" "O, yes! How strange!" "Well, I am a nephew of the man on that piece—Napoleon." "But who is this, Napoleon?" returned the rustic. He had never heard the name before.—London Truth. The mind is but a barren soil; a soil which is soon exhausted, and will produce no crop, or only one, unless it be continually fertilized and enriched with foreign matter.

(Phosphate Soap) and it gives me great pleasure to testify as to its superior excellence. As a toilet soap I have never seen anything to surpass it. It also possesses superior remedial qualities. I have used it in two cases of obstinate skin disease, one of intolerable itching, Pruritus, the other an Exema. In both great relief was obtained. Its emollient properties are remarkable. Respectfully, W.A. DOUGLASS, M.D. 126 O'Farrell St. To the Standard Soap Company. SAN FRANCISCO, July 19, 1891. Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: The ladies of my household, four in number, unite with me in pronouncing your PHOSPHATE SOAP the best ever tried for toilet use. It is noticeable that while it readily removes impurities from the skin, it also leaves undisturbed the natural oil so essential to the health. It is not too strong language to say that we are delighted with it. C.M.SAWTELLE, M.D. 120 Oapp street. SAN FRANCISCO, July 19, 1892. Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: I have tried your PHOSPHATE SOAP, and have no hesitation in saying that it is the best toilet soap I ever used. My wife has used it and is of the same opinion. I have paid as high as fifty cents per cake for an article in every respect inferior to what you sell for twenty-five cents. HENRY H. LYNCH, 515 Haight street. OAKLAND, Cal., Aug. 1, 1893. Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: We have been giving your PHOSPHATE SOAP a pretty fair trial, and we like it the best of any soap for toilet use that we have found on this Coast. We have little doubt that it will meet with universal favor. MRS.R.R.JOHNSTON, 1016 Kirkham street. The genuine merits of PHOSPHATE SOAP and persistent advertising will force every druggist, groceryman and general dealer to order it by the gross sooner or later. Ask for it in every store. The retail price is 25 cents per case. We wish to sell it only at wholesale, but in case you cannot find it we will send a nice box of three cakes by mail, postage paid, on receipt of $5 cents in stamps.
