they are ngnln winners of llrsl place,
thouHh they have yet one more game to

nine points (inference between the high

missed but eight possible spares, the other
nineteen open frames being on bad splits.
In strikes Nichols was the leader, with
eleven, and In spares Taylor was high,

311s Marhliani. of "llliek Crook" Pjiine,
tie. Illiile.
Paulino Mnrkhnm, over who? beauty
nnd clever actlnir New Yorkers raved
twenty years ngn. when she dazzled
them In "The Jllnok Crook," and whose
dlnmonds were supposed to be worth n
king'. nttisom, Is now living in nctttal
want In n cheap llrooklyti boarding;
bouse. An she represented It herself to
a Commercial Advertiser reporter: "If
It were not for the kindness of the lndy
who keep thl house I should have to
fall back upon public charity."
Such Is the Irony of fate. Twenty
year ago this woman had the world nt
her feet, nnd one famous critic went so
far an to say that her voice was like
velvet and that her figure was such that
she might supply the model for tho miss
ing nrm of the Venus of 51 Hn.
.Many ups and downs tho actress has
bad. and she spoke of them freely anil a
bit sadly, albeit she plucklly placed the
best face possible upon matters.
It must not be at all Imagined that
5Ilsn Jlarkham lias lost the bontity that
first made her famous. Time nnd trouble
have, It Is true, left their marks on her
fnce. Inn she Is yet a very beautiful
woman. Her voice Is clear nnd resonant,
her manners are as expressive, her
eyes ns bright and her Hmlle as sweet
as In earlier year.. Tho crowning part
of her misfortunes came when she fell
into nn excavation In Louisville and
broke her leg. She sued the con! factors,
and she got a verdict for 4,000. Hut she
did not get tho money, and the case Is
before the court of appeals. She mny
pot It some day, and In tho meantime
she Is out of an engagement and In some
straits.
Miss 5tnrkhnm came to this country
nt tho tlmo T.ydtn Thompson did, In tho
early seventies, and she became nt onco
a marked llRttro among that famous
troupe of burlrsqticrs. It was not, how
ever, until 1S.72, when .larrett ami Pal
mer produced "The Hlnck Crook" at
Niblo's, that 5Iiss 5Iarkhatn sprang Into
full public favor. "The Hlnck Crook"
had been played !n New York snmo,
years prior to this, but not on the scale
that marked thn production In which
5Ils 5Iarkham appeared. In It she be
came famous almost in n night, and
New York went wild over her. It was In
this production that nonfaute, the fa
mous ballet dancer, appeared, also Bes
sie Stidlow, Lizzie Ki-lsey, 51 fs. Wright,
famous In her day, and others. Among
the men were Chnrles Morton, now dend,
who was the Hlnck Crook; Hen 5Iagmley
.-.lid other.
"It se-ems a strange thing to say,"
5Ilss Markham said to tho reporter, "but
I r.-ally bellevo that It would have been
hotter for mo if I had not scored tho
success I did In 'The Hlnck Crexdt.' You
see, the public lifter that made up Its
mind that I could do nothing but bur
lesque. And yot I was .considered a
good actress In serious parts In Kn
gland. Thero 1 played In tho same cast
with Henry Irving. Kllcn Terry, James
L. Toole, Charles Wyndhnm nnd 51rs.
Labouchcre she was not 5Irs. La
bouchere then, you know. Henry La
bouchero ndvlsed mo when I was about
to leave for America that I would do
better to remain at homo where I was
fast coming to the,- front. I did not tnko
bis advlco. Well, my former compan
ions are at tho top of tho ladder and I
am well, I am here.
" played In 'The Hlnck Crook' In Phil-nde-lphln,
but It was In New York that I
did nearly all my work In this piece. I
played In other parts, of course. I was
In 'Pink Dominoes' nnd 'Robin Hood.' I
bad previously appeared In all the old
stock plays 'Tho Lady of Lyons,' and
other like It and had played In nil
round parts. Hut the Americans know
mo only ns a star In 'The Hlaek Crook."
"The death of James Flsk was n sad
blow to me. He was arranging to mount
a melodrama on n magnlllcent scalo In
tho Grand opera house, In which I was
to star, when ho was shot. John Stet
son was always n good friend of mine,
but ho became angry with me over a
trifle, and I lost my best friend. I can
only hope now for snmo engagement. I
believe I nm as capablo of work as ever,
nnd all I want Is an opportunity."
51lss Markham has been twice married.
Ilcr first marriage was to a 5InJor 5!ae
5Iahon, a Southern man, This was n
happy one. After 5IaJor 5IacMnhon's
death she mnrrlcO nn actor who played
In her company. This union ended In
divorce.

Homely Incident Showing an Old Woman's
I.11111 for Her Counlry,
A homely Incident Is related In one of
the provincial Journals which Is not
without i1- touch of pithos, Kurolso Is
the name of one of tho lesser Mntlons on
tha northern route, the nearest village
of any Importance being known as HI
gash! Nnsu-no-murn. n little place of
less than fiOO Inhabitants. As many
trains have lately been bringing soldiers
down from the northern provinces, nnd
ns these trains have Invariably (o stop'
II while nt Kurolso, tho people of tho
nbovo named vlllago thought this un ex
cellent opportunity to turn an honest
penny by selling nrtlcles of food, tobac
co, etc., to tha loldlers en route.
There was nit old woman, however,
who had a bigger conception of her duty
and what was owing to the defenders
of her country than nny of her fellow
vlllngers. Parting with everything she
could spare, she spent nil tho result In
buying a largo quantity of chestnuts.
These were then made Into that kind of
cake known as kaohlkurl. This done, the
old woman carried the cakes to the
trains whenever they bore soldiers
southward and presented each man wth
some of the sweets she had sacrificed so
much to procure.
She accompanied each llttlo gift with u
bow and tho wsh: "Conquer In battle
and romo back to Japan victorious und
utiwounded." The soldiers were much
touched by her simple words and artless
demeanor and would have given her
money, but she positively refused to re
ceive anything In return, for the loyal
offerings.

The tnot lecetit unique Instance of the
latter method of making one's fortune wn
located In South Jersey. A mull who had
been a poor ns hi neighbors began to be
noticeably pto.sperou. In time hi nc
qu.ilnlnnces began to connect hi lncrened
fnrtilno with hi regulnr disappearance
from town with n huge nnd apparently
weighty Jut, Someone suggested "moon
shine" and set the revenue otllcers on hi
trnck. The olllclals Investigated, smiled,
but went quietly away without disturbing
the supposed culprit or explaining their
conduct to his neighbors,
One night, however, ns 111 luck would
have It, says a. writer In Kate Field'
Washington, nn Inhabitant of that region
fell Into the cteek which ran close by
what little village there was. When he was
llhcd out hi clothe Were black ns Ink.
This led to it discovery. Some miles nway
the refiiro of a dye establishment ran Into
the rreek. The dye wns so strong and the
water supply so monger that the result of
the mixture was a good Ink, which the
smart countryman dipped Into 11 Jug nnd

for thl tale, but It I said to be a true one.

Ginseng I a root which grows In all the
rich upland woods of America from Cnn

many states sang digging Is merely an
Incidental, If prolltnblc, addition to regu

West Virginia, howeter, there nrc whole
communities of people who do nothing else
for a living. The men lire short, tough,

wear 11 single calico garment, while the
children go naked, and they all live on

From October to JIny the "sanger," ns
he Is called, hates work, but from Mny to
October he works like a beaver digging the
ginseng root. This ho sells green to the
nearest country storekeeper. Tho rind of
the root Is 11 pale salmon color, the Inte
rior Is pure white; It taste not unlike lic
orice, and has a faint, aromatic odor.
Ginseng root must be dried either In the
sun or In kilns, or else it must he evap
orated by steam before It Is ready to pass
from the rural merchant to the city denier,
who passes It on to the seaboard and
thence to China.
Not far from Capo 5Iay, Now Jersey,
there Is n unique mining Industry. Cedar
Is Indigenous to the soil of that foreign
country, and centuries ago there must
have been a line forest of cedar trees
where are now the swampy suburbs of
Capo May. A mighty storm or earthquake
must have felled this wood at one swoop,
for gigantic trees a well as smaller ones
lie ut full length Imbedded In soft muck
many feet belo,v the surface of the earth.
As far back as 1812. a log was discovered
by 11 Jerseymnn supposed to have been dig

When hauled to the surface. It was found
to be perfectly preserved. Since that time
the people of that vicinity have mined for
this wood to a greater or less extent.

WHAT OAt'SKS III.rsllING?
It Is a Problem That Has Nncr lleen
Satisfactorily Ciplalned.
The physiology of blushing has long
presented n dlllloult problem to solve,
Many unsatisfactory explanations havo
been given of the cause of thnt unsat
isfactory phenomenon. Tho British Med
ical Journal lately received an Inquiry
ns to the measures to bo taken for tho
cute of a chronic tendency to blush, and
one of Its correspondents tukes up the
matter In ft very practical way,
Among other causes of blushing ho
gives pi eminence "to the wearing of too
thick underclothing, und especially of
too thick socks," Ho adds Hint long
sleeved Jerseys or woolen tocks are
often a cause of blushing, nnd. In fact,
warm clothing In general. He does not
fall to remark that the blusher must
chooso In this matter between the risk
of rheumatism and the annoyance of
blushing.
As collateral evidence n support of
his views ho Bays; "An aunt ot mine
had habitually a red note from this
cause alone, which disappeared when
she took lo thinner stockings."
itegardlng the matter fiom a social
standpoint, tho writer says; "The best
plan for an habitual blusher Is to laugh
nnd be very gushing, ns, for Instance, on
meeting nn nctinlntntiee In the street,
when ho colors up; nnd he Will then feel
more fit his cne thilti It lie look) 9hrop
IjIi nnd reserved."
An nltvlotin cause for blushing Is over
fonsltlvenef nnd self-consclounc'
which will wear nwny ns the person be
corn's ii'ril to society ntul strengthens)
hi. character by ndoptlrtg wise princi
ples of thought nnd notion. The physi
ological explanation of blushing given
by (ho writer Just quoted Is that It Is
due to paralysis of the sympathetic!
rlreles of ttervr surrounding the ar
teries which, not contracting properly,
allow n free Mow ot blood to the sur
face. .
TliltltOKs Of AI'I'KNIMCms.
Supposed lo He the Cmii of About All
Cases nf Peritonitis.
"The prevnletioe, or supposed preva
lence of nppeiidlcltl nowadays," snld
Dr. Kdwnrd ,1. Howell, of New York,
"Is simply due (o Ihe fact that tho pro
fession has discovered that this illscas'i
Is the cntie of nearly nil the enses of
Itiltnmmntlon of the bowels, or periton
itis, ns It I railed. Practically there H
no rase of peritonitis, In the mnle nt
least, that I not caused by Inlliimmatlon
ot the appendix. What happens when
we have these attacks Is that concre
tion or solid pieces of focces get engag
ed In the little body that Is situated nt
the Junction of the Intge nnd small
bowels. This Interferes with the circula
tion, the little body swell, ulcerates,
and some of the content ot the lutes

cerated hole'. An abscess commonly
results. It tills becomes lliclsted or lo

nre good, either by 1111 operation or tho
nhsccss mnklng Its way to the stirfaco
or toward tho Interior of the bowel, and
he gets well without any operation be
yond, perhaps, opening tho ubscesn.
"Frequently the nbscess becomes dif
fused nnd breaks Into the perltonenl
cavity and the patient almost Invariably
dies. These latter eases can only bo
saved by an early operation. The point
on which the public should bo Informed
Is that the early symptoms, cramp,
vomiting1, rigidity of the abdomen, etc.,
should always be regarded seriously.
Appendicitis Is essentially a surgical dis
ease, amenable to surgical treatment
only In grave cases. The mild cases get
well anyway. Every attack leaves tho
patient sublect to another.
"The most favorable statistics of tho
ailment are In cases where the opera
tion Is performed between nttacks, tho
mortality In those cases being less than
2 per cent. Thu mortality In those
cases which result In general peritonitis
Is as high as 7." per cent. What Is needed J
is early recognition of the trouble and ,1
qtllck operation before it progresses to &
the severe type." A-
Till: HUNTING HOG.
The Finer tho Ilroril thn .More Delicate tho

Only tho hunter nppicclates how careful
one must bo with a llncly bred hunter. et
some men seem to forget that from dog
kept for sporting purposes wo exnet 1111
amount of violent exercise which tells
upon them exactly ns It does upon our
selves. A dog who comes homo overtired,
unless supplied with tempting food nnd a,
warm, clean and comfortable bed, would
break down as certainly ns a man would.
All hunting men know this about their
horse and all grooms and stablemen nro
obliged to act accordingly. Hut about
their dogs men seem to reason us if they
wero gifted by nature with some special
exemption from all tho consequences of
Insalubrity. , , ,
Thero nro fools In tho world who thlnlc

long day's partridge shooting, and con
sented to bellevo that ho would bo equally
well cared for In all other respects. At
tho end of tho llrst day's shooting, a very
wet day, ho could hardly crawl home, nnd
wo nnd to uir. mm over ine siouo wans.
Still, wo had no suspicion of tho truth. Ha
went to bed, nnd next morning was evi
dently very 111. Wo tried him with meat,
milk, warm and cold, but he could touch
nothing, nnd lay curled round In a corner
shivering.
Wo found, on Inquiry, thnt, owing to
somo feud among tho servants, tho boy to
whoso caro ho had been specially Intrusted
had been unahlo to get him any dinner,
nitd three nights running, after n hard
day's work, he had had nothing but a few
scraps of bread. Tills, of course, so weak
ened htm tl.nt ho was quite unable to
stand out against tho cold nnd wet. caught
a violent chill, and would certnlnly have
died had we gone on leaving him to serv
ants. Wo tot him round nguln, with a
good deal of cure, but that was it lesson
to us. and we hopo It may bo a lesson to
all who nro In tho hnblt of taking valuablo
dogs about with them to friends' houses.
Another dangerous thing to do with deli
cate dogs is to drive tliem homo nny dis.

dlllleult sometimes to avoid It, but It would
nlwnys bo possible to glvo them a good
rubbing down before putting them In the,
dogcart.

OVARINE
V
(Hammond.)
The emotions in women are largely in
fluenced by the ovaries, and the ovaries
are in turn decidedly influenced by the
emotions. Professor Skene, one of the
most distinguished authorities on Diseases
of Women, states that C"ef, fear, anger,
and even great joy are capable of arrest
ing menstruation.
"In order to maintain harmo.
"nious action of the whole orginiration
"it i3 necessary that the ova,.es shall
"exist in full development and functional
"activity. On the other hand, these
"organs, which are essential to the well
"being of the individual, must, when
"diseased, exercise a potent influence in
"deranging the brain and nervous system."
These facts go to prove conclusively that
a very large proportion of the cases of in
sanity in women could have been pre.
vented by careful treatment of diseased
ovaries. It is also very probable that
many cases of insanity could be perfectly
cured by careful and systematic treatment
of the diseased ovaries,
THE
Animal Extracts
Professor William A, Hammond has
made the important discovery that the
sterilized extract of the ovaries of the
common pig contains the animal extract
required to specially nourish the human
ovaries and restore them to normal
activity,
The use of Ovarine is of great value in
the treatment ol those nervous disturb,
