GRANT AT WEST POINT.
jProc from All Profuxiity nntl IMirc tu
Iiis Co?MTNiitlna.
I Grant was a most agreeable and af
Jfec-tionate roommate. It. wanna my
[heart when I think of the year we
passed together so pleasantly. At first
jwe had another inmate in our room;
Ibut he was transferred to another corn
jpany and we were alone together. We
(never bad the slightest disagreement.
[Grant was not what we called "njili
jtary." He was careless in dress, he did
|r.ot pay much attention to the minutiae
iof drill. For two years wo were both
[high privates in the company. Then
j\j c w ere made cadet sergeants. We
[had many a good laugh about bur-mili
jtary cadet rank. He *-;*.* foot of the
list, and I next above him. The next
'year, when the appointment of cadet
|ofQcers was made oar. he returned to
the rank of private and I to.->k the foot
,cf tho list. Grant had n good head fot
atics and other studies. He was
mot a hard student; he-studied enough
t.> take the head of the second section.
;n:ul 1 do not doubt if he had been more
[ambitious he could have been in the
Iflrsl section. Three parts of the class
were, below him as it was. lie got n
jgood deal of demerits for trifling care?
lessness in military matters, which low
iered his general standing in the class,
illo joined the Dialectic society, a lit?
erary association, purely voluntary, to
nmprove himself in general education,
.n:id attended its meeting's regularly.
[Although always cheerful and pleasant,
he seemed a good part of the time oc?
cupied in serious thoughts on the great
jproblems of human life. lie was free
pCrom all profanity, and his conversation
?was pure. ITe did not drink liquor or
;r*e tobacco. One of his characteristic
'traits was a great straightforwardness
and a .-err.': ulous regard for truth. He
'would not deviate from it even in jest,

informed Mayor Harrison that they are
prepared to furnish enough coal to keep
the city running for three months. Tins
removes the danger of a co.d famine in
that city as a result of the strike among
the miners.
Gene.-:'.' Booth-Tucker, American com?
mander of the Salvation Army, is tnine
t formulate a scheme for colonizing in the
country, the poor of the great cities. He
has called on secretary Wilson, 01 the De?
partment of Agriculture, to secure hi.
advice regarding the scheme. It is said
Secretary Wilson oflered every aid the
department could give to promote the
plan.

SHIFTS OF A RESTAURANT MAN.
Ue?un with a French Cuisine and
Ended with Free Dinner?.
IIow severe is the struggle for lifo
among tho uptown restaurant men is
shown by the shifts to which one who
lias lately joined their ranks is resort?
ing1 in order to attract customers. Jle
bad a large house on his hands, and not
finding lodgers sufficiently profitable,
decided to start a high-class restaurant,
lie began by furnishing the second
floor in fine style, and offering "the
best French cuisine and fine wines" at
$1.25. His average was two customers
nightly, one of whom ate on credit.
After about two weeks of weary wait?
ing he decided that he had been too am?
bitious, and removing his tables and
few appointments one floor down, he
put out a sign offering "an excellent
dinner with wine" for 75 cents. Four
customers came the first night and
three the second. After that the reg?
ular attendance was two, the same in?
dividuals as before. But the would-be
caterer was not beaten.
"One must begin at the bottom," he
reasoned, and decided on another
cbange.
The tables and appointments were re?
moved to the basement and a new sign
put out. It ran: "A good dinner with
an excellent cup of coffee, 25 cents."
But basement cafes are viewed with dis?
favor in his part of town. The one
paying customer deserted him, and his
plnce was filled by a tramp who asked
for charity and quarreled about what
was ser/ed. Not even yet would the
proprietor give in.
"My place is not yet known," he said.
"I must show people that I have a
large and fashionable clientele."
So he bade all his family- array them?
selves in their Sunday best and dis?
tribute themselves nightly about the
tables in the restaurant.
Although the diners change their
places every night, the proprietor
thinks that the public must see through
his trick, for while places are laid for
50, more than nine persons are never
to be seen seated at a time. So he has
engaged a score of well-looking young
men to dine from six o'clock to nine
free of charge.?N. Y. Sun.
Juke In on Ulm.
"You know the mean tenant that
Chipper is always complaining about?"
"Yes."
"Well, Chipper thinks he has-ao. awful
good joke on him. The tenant burned
up one side of the coal shed for kindling
wood and now the neighbors get in r/j
night and steal his coal."?Cleveland

THREE HAPPY WOMEN.
A Trio of Fervent Letters to
the Sympathetic Friend
of Her Sex.
HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE,
Each Letter Tells in a Different
Way of Agonies Relieved
by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
Before using Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, my
health was gradually being undermined. I suffered untold agony
from painful menstruation, backache, pain on top of my head and
ovarian trouble. I concluded to try Mrs. Pinkham's
Compound, and found that it was all any woman
needs who suffers with painful monthly periods. It
entirely cured me.
Mrs. Georgie Wass,
923 Bank St., Cincinnati, O.
For years I had suffered with pain?
ful menstruation every month. At
the beginning of menstruation it was
possible for mc to stand up for more
an five minutes, I felt so miserable,
ne day a little book of Mrs. Pink?
ham's was thrown into my house and
down and read it. I then got some of
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
Pills. I can heartily say that to-day
new woman; my monthly suffering
the past. I shall always praise
Compound for what it has done
Mrs. Margaret Anderson,
363 Lisbon St., Lewiston, Me.
I sat right
Lydia E.
and Liver
I feel lik
is a thing
the Vegetabl
for me.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has cured me of painful
menstruation and backache. The pain in my back was dreadful,
and the agony I suffered during menstruation nearly drove me wild.
Now this is all over, thanks to Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and
advice.?Mrs. Carrie V. Williams, South Mills, N. C.
The great volume of testimony proves conclusively that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a safe, sure and almost infallible
remedy in cases of irregularity, suppressed, excessive or painful
monthly periods. .**am*rmj-*
