NELLIE BLY'S
COLUMN.
This Is all my own.
Herein every Sunday I may say all I
please and what I please.
Is not that a Joy?
It Is one of the very sweot rights
that come to an editor and owner of a
newspaper, and although I am not an.
editor and only own the newspaper I
buy from a boy. still that joy Is mine.
Of course, my regular articles on various tonics will appear from time to
time, but in them I cannot write the
little things that interest me and will.
I hope, interest those who care to read
my contributions.
Of course, If you don't like me, the
caption at the head of my column will
warn you to leave this and go on to
something else.
Speaking of liking. Have you ever
thought how strange It Is that we should
like and dislike utter strangers, persons we have nevier seen, who are
known to us only through that which
we have read In print?
Just recall wha.t an interest 3-011 have
taken In murder trials; what warm
friendships and what bitter dislikes you
have formed tor the imrllclpants; how
yon have fought their battles with (he
vigor of a friend or an enemy.
Not only In murder cases, but in
other things, reading of persons, be
they prominent or otascur;, fortunate or
unfortunate criminal or Innocent, produces for them either a friendship or a
dislike. And the feeling will be as
strong and ijlncere as though It grew
from a personal acquaintance.
If you doubt it, sit down and count
how many persons you like and dislike .lust from reading about them, and
I'll wnp>r. if you still count In the
nursery fashion, you'll need to be a
centipede.
Or, it you happen to lack the ability
to rare for people, recall your friends
who haye spoken to you about .some one
they lead of and how they llk'ed or
hated him.
I know a woman who Is ready to
swear upon her life that Mrs. Cleveland
is the inmost beautiful and cultivated
woman" alive. I know another who
swears Just as emphatically that Mrs.
Cleveland is horribly ugly, dreadfully
Ill-bred and extraordinarily overrated. '
And neither of "them has ever seen
her!
And so In thousands of cases, we don't
know what" makes us like and dislike
utter strangers, but the fact Is indisputable, we do.
I confess I hate and adore persons I
have never seen—yes, even persons who
lived and died centuries ago, and I am
ready to go out, like Don Quixote, and
battle for them any day in the week.
Everybody to his or' her opinion, I
•ay.
I remember one day at Sheepsheaft
Bay hearing a man back of me remark
to the woman with him:
"I am going to bet on Nellie Ely" (a
race horse and my namesake).
"Don't you do It," the woman exclaimed, sharply. "You shan't! I won't
•peak to you If you do."
"Why?" he asked In surprise.
"Because I hate her. I hated her when
she was going around the world, and
I've always hated her."
"Do you know her?" the man inquired
in a very painstaking tone of submission.
"No!" was the quick answer. "I
never saw her even. But I hate her so
there!"
Poor horse! I felt so sorry for the
poor, Innocent beast—a beauty she is,
too—that I doubled my bet on her out
of sheer pity, and—she won!
I would announce to all lovers of the
miraculous, and to all fruit-growers as
well, that the apple trees which have
been in bloom all the Summer'In the
court of the Waldorf have borne fruit
a t last,
' . . . ' . .
And—they are ripe oranges!
With the coming of fruit there has
been, I am sorry to say, a going of
game,
. '
' . ' ' • ' •' • ' • '
All the frequenters of , the Waldorf
court this summer were devoted to a
pair of little white rabbits'that lived
supposedly In the box by .the fountain,
but In reality upon the knees of their
admirers or stretched, kg /tight full as
their' hides could bear, upon the tiled
floor.
Almost every time I dined there they
came upon my table w i t h - t h e coffee.
They would eat whatever I kept for
them with the greatest avidity, although
they, like De Wolf Hopper's elephant,
ate ail the time.
A wineglass always produced the
greatest amount 6f curiosity in them.
They would sit upon their hind feet and,
try to stick their little Saint Vitus noses
into the glasses, only to turn away.in
disgust If they succeeded.
But those two little rabbits had tha
unfortunate luck to grp\v, and so they
are no mpre, and the court Is not Just

Charles Reed, philosopher, sportsman,
owner of St. Blafse and a stable renowned for the horses it has produced,
Is quite unintentionally establishing a
new business for hlmsolf.
It Is a remedy, not patented, for Indigestion, which he carries in the breast
pocket of his coat.
When he feels especially kind towards
any one he produces from that pocket
a clean envelope from which he empties
some smooth green berries, with an occasional red one, about the size of wintergreen berries.
"Do you ever have indigestion?" he
will ask. "If you do I want you to try
these. Just take one and roll It up In
a small bit of bread and chew It with
your side teeth so it won't smart your
tonB-HC. You'll nnd Its very good
for Indigestion or headaches or biliousness. I never suffer from any such aliments because I always use these. I
eat them with every meal and have for
years."
"What are they? Popper pods. They
are sent to me regularly from New Orleans, where I used to live and where I
learnt to use them years ago. They
pow upon a small bush Ilk? a sage
bush. There are birds In Louisiana that
live upon these pods. They eat nothing
else. The Frenchmen consider these
birds pepper pots they call them, a
great delicacy, and so they are constantly sought after.
I believe my
"f-'th and the good condition of mv
digestive organs are due entirely to the

feo several persons whom I know and
more that I have heard of, have tried
these seductive pepper pods. There is but
one source of supply, so Mr. Reed Is constantly sought for and the subject of
the demand for pepper pods Is very dell-

I wish I possessed the power to re.
produce one of Mr. Reed's anecdotes as
he tells them. But to appreciate in full
one of his stories one must hear the expressive tones of his voice and note the
changes of his face.
. It is one thing to hear a story, another to repeat it.
He was telling me one the other evening about 1-llllery Holly, an Englishman,
wlm lived In Louisiana.
Hlllery Holly's weakness was ale and
his complaint a constant weariness and
lack of funds. His one acknowledged
strong point was his ability to suggest
ale, which he did very cleverly by sayIng:
"Did any one wink?"
Whether they had or not, the drinkIng public soon learned that this meant
that Hlllery Holly was thirsty and
would not be offended If some obliging
person snrgested, at his personal expense, a remedy.
