A very few wealthy Americans who had found out that U t«* exclusive and costly tried occasion., ally to gain ad nlesion. "About a year ago, two lads-of 16, 4let«ed in the height of fashion a faint on their lips, sat in the drawing- room of rhls house before the Are, their W.l on, their legs stretched out at full length, whistling in concert. They were the eons of a merchant prince of Sew York, and of a Chicago man who katf gained a great fortune by mining ft|H*culalion8, and accordingly looked ilown on the world from a lofty height. A gray, bent old gentleman came in,. Wrapped In an old«fashioned traveling fhawi, something the worse for wear, fie stopped, looked at the Are. and frhlted for the youthful occupiers of |lte best places ro rise. The boys stared at h<m, stretched their legs a little fdrther across the hearth, and whistled more loudly than before. The old gentleman sat down In a corner. "It's a cold day outside, motherP said one of the young boors loudly, and they both laughed. A moment or two Safer a feeble old lady entered. They siill remained seated, but eyed her quitzictlly as she sat down by Iter husband. She wore thick, broad soled *'hoes, a traveling dress, and a bonnet Hot the fashion of two years ago. ^I'be lads giggled. "Ah, there!" said iwi®. ! "Nov there r responded the other. 'The first whistled, "l'je mookey •parried the baboon's sister." Where's your sister this morning. Bob?" interrupted his companion. , '-Busy with dressmakers. I guess. She to going to be presented to Vicky next week." • "Yesf She's a stunner. She'll lay over these English women, I guess." A servaut entered and delivered a message to the old gentleman, who fUtli his wife left the room. . **Ah, there!" one young man said, willing to repeat a fine bit of wit.. The servant turned to him aghast. "That Is his grace, the Duke of naming one of the oldest houses lu England. The young men, who were of that class of Americans who grovel before rank, sat dumb for a moment, and then muttering that it "was a cold day indeed," went out. The next day the hotel at which this scene occurred issued a notice, "No Americans will be received." This notice Is publicly given by some of the best hotels In England, and naturally affords much offense to travelers from this couutry. Our story may partially explain the Ireasoafor it.

Boot & Tinker, of New York City, who have pnblished from time to time handsome lithograph portraits of the prominent journalists of the United States and Great Britain, have just Issued a very attractive engraving ,32x28 Inches, of the leading Proprie­ tary Medicine Manufacturers of the United States, Including Dr. J. O. Ayer G. I. Hood, Dr. Hostetter, of "Hostel­ ler's Bitters,'1 John Hodge, of "Mer chant's Gargling Oil;" Mr. Scott, of 4 Scott's EmulsionDr. J. H. Schenck, H. E. Bucklen, of "Electric Bitters;1 Mr. Powell,of "Iron Bitters:" Dr. Tutt, Dr. Brandreth, of "Brandreth's Pills," and H. H. Warner, of "Warner's Safe Core" an J "Tippecanoe" fame. We doubt if a more attractive group of eleven men could be got together from any one walk of life. As is quite ap-«ropriate, the central figure is H. H. fnrner, the background of whose vig­ nette Is his trade mark of an iron safe. Inscribed with the names of the famous .Warner's Safe Remedies. Mi. Warner Is the most prominent as well as most successful proprietary medicine manu factnrer this couutry has yet produced and his zeal in the prosecution of his business grew out of the fact, in large ineasure, that -he himself, when given up to die aft Incurable of an extreme kidney disorder, In 1879, was cured by . the remedy to which he has given the world-wide fame--"Warner's Safe Cure." The sale of the "Warner's Safe Remedies" has been so widely extend­ ed that warehouses and laboratories for their manufacture have been estab* lished in all quarter* of the globe, not the least prosperous being one in far distant Australia. People have errone­ ous notions, both of the motives and character of proprietary medicine men. As a rule they are solid, substantial, . trustworthy citizens, who win the suc­ cess that comes to them purely on the merit of the goods they produce and of the work they perform. This is •specially true of the central figure of -this group. This picture hanging side by side with prominent journalists, re­ ligious, political and foreign, will probably attract more attention than those famous editorial writers, because there Is hardly a person who walks the street, who has not either used some of the remedies manufactured by these men, or had their Interest stimulated In the gentlemen themselves by the record made by their remedies among personal friends. This picture is sent out with the compliments of Mr. H. H. Warner, who, besides having won such distinguished fame as the manufacture •r of "Warner's Safe Cure," is well known founder of the "Wan.er Aotror. Omical Observatory," Rochester. N. Y.» •fid the "Warner Astronomical Prizes'" for eometary discovery, so eagerly fpught for by astronomers all over the. World. Mr. Warner is a self-made man ind those who know him best say that flie success which he has won thus early 111 life (he being at present not over 46 i Sears of age) is in all respectB eminent­ ly deserved, "for he Is a man of very Jftroad views and wlde-extended liber­ ality. y ' f Interest! *g to 'Bottv Sexes.
