Presently he took up his paper and un­der a pretense of reading softly whis­tled "She's as protty as a picture."

This made no evident impression on the young lady, who was looking dream­ily at the fleeting landscape. Not dia- oouraged, the importunate flirt started off with more insinuating intonations, ‘ ‘Oh, Eyes so Blue and Tender."

The maiden fair moved a trifle uneasily and pressed her face against the window pane. “ A Sweet Face at the Window " readily whistled the quick-witted tor- mentor. There was no mistaking the personal allusion in the whistle, and the young lady moved as If to change her seat, but an omnlous silence following this move, she settled down again to ponder and to dream.

“ Oh, speak to me, sneak,” whistled the musical fiend with fine inflections, as dramatic as a whlstier can make them.

"Baltimore the next station,” .a n ­nounced the conductor.

"H ow Can I Bear to Leave Thee,” began the whistler, tolling the cheerful fact that Baltimore was his destination. The young lady sat ;up with a more in- terested expression upon her heretofore sphinx like countenances.

"Would I ne’er had met thee,” whistled the young man as he drew on his overcoat and striking Into "F a re­well, Forever," as he disappeared.

The train stopped, he passed the window and caught a glimpse of a bonny face radiant with smiles of appreciative mischief. It was almost his undoing. He had an Impulse to spring on the train and go to Washington—but already the train was whizzing past, with a fare­well wave of his hand he Jogged along XbUUlng " H e r Bright Smile Haunts Me Still.

trary whistle of unbelief.

Hundreds of students gathered Alb the Btettiner station in Berlin to aee Prince Bismarck pass through on hla w ay from Varzln to Frledrlohsruhe. The tra in ar­rived promptly at 5 *B0 o'olook In the af­ternoon, and th e shouting, cheering

Deafening shouts, a storm of handkerohlefs and hats, and repeated volleys o f " Hooha" greeted him. •• Mer- fy Christmas, m ighty Chancellor."

Long life to t h e great Blsmarok,” "A uf Wledersehen ln Berlin,” •• Long

, to tbe Princess," wsfs a few of ths cries that beosme distinct as th e first whirlwind of welcome began to abate.

The Prlnoo opened the window and leaned out smiling and bowing. Boms one started "Deutschland, Deutschland uber AUes," and fo r five minutes ths big students'chorus made the station tremblo with the tones of the German national hymn. A t the close every ons began to cheer again, but Blsmarok In­terrupted the demonstration by shout­ing loudly, as he smiled with satisfac­tion : "Ithank you , I thank you with my whole heart fo r this kindly greet­ing.” More oheerB till the students were too hoarse to cheer longer. Then Bismarck inquired :

"H o w did you know I was coming f” “ The newspapers told us," they

shouted."W hore am i?”" I n theStettiner station.”"Y e s . yes. In th e old times it took

three days with th e courier post for this journey and now I make it in a few hours. At the Btettiner station? No, I have been sleeping."

"Y e s , but we h ave been watching, Herr Chancellor," shouted baok the stu­dents, and then broke into a storm of merriment and applause over their Joke. Just then a B erlin policeman ln his groen uniform pushed forward to quiet the uproarious crowd. Blsmarok cyod him critically and remarked:

" Y e s , yes. It Is a long time since I have soon a policeman. How w ell I re- raembor the first policeman under the Linden ln 1848, and how the small boys shouted for Joy at th e appearaaoe of the groen fellows.

Here some one changed the subloot by crying ou t:

" Your Excellency, since you left the Bourso has been doing a poor business."

"Y e s , but Europe stands firm ,” an­swered tho ex-Chanoellor amid approv­ing cheers. The conversation was out short by the departure of the train, with Bismarck leaning o u t of the window and the crowd shouting for all It was w orth: "H ap p y holidays," "Merry Christ­mas, ” and " Auf Wiodorsohen in Ber­lin.” _____________

Two W o m a n o f Chicago.There aro two women on the Ohioago

Board of Eduoation, Mrs. Ellen Mitchell one o f the shining lights In the Fort­nightly Club, and H iss Mary E Burt, an out-and-out" blue. ” Oddly enough, Mrs.MituLell oujuyeu th e friendship or the Brownings, and M lae Burt compiled a vmrtFard. Few literary people have bo Inti­mate an acquaintance with the best w riters of the w orld slnoo Homer sung, the best thoughts o f whom hRve been carefully garnered b y this bright woman. On the subject of applied literature to school-teachlag. M iss Burt s a y s : " I t has long been my eusplolon, and has at last beoome my conviction, that there Is a natural and logical sequence la liter* ature that should be applied in the teaching of readlnglin our public schools, and whloh, if applied, would send our children forth into the world, not with a small, desultory knowledge—unassorted m aterial—but w ith auoh an assortment of facts and suoh architectural plans as should cause them in all their spare mo­ments of life to delight to build up for themselves towers as preolous as Giot­to’s own." This subject Miss B urt has embodied ln a little book published by Houghton, Mifflin A Co., entitled, " L it ­erary Landmarks for Young People,” and intended as a guide to reading. Con­gratulatory letters were sent to the au­thor by Charles Dudley Warner, George William Curtis, John Burroughs and other literary celebrities.

The P i.rtet in His Pel mm .A gentleman who was traveling on a

sleeping car and was to alight about 3 ln w e morning, gave the porter explicit di­rections to wake him at the proper time, and went to sleep. About midnight the porter oame and aroused him.

‘ Excuse me, sab," the porter said, but I forgot where you’e goin’ to get

on. 0The passenger, not pleased at this In­

terruption, repeated his directions, and then again addressed himself to sleep. He slept until afew minutes of the arrival of the train at the point where he was to stop, when he fortunately awoke. Look- ing at his watoh, be discovered that he had barely time to get, dressed, and b e ■ orambled Into his clothes with a oeler- ity that saved him from missing his sta­tion, all the time saying to himself things concerning th« porter whloh were by no means complimentary to that indi­vidual.

As the train drew In the station, where ft made « stop o f only a moment, the £enirS man b uried out of the oar, and aa he did so passed the porter sound asleep on a seat In the smoking room. With a poke of his valise the passenger awak­ened him,

" I say," he demanded, "why didn’t you call me as lto ld you to? I came very near sleeping over.”

The porter drew himself up with a sieepy dignity, suppressing a yawn and rubbing his eyes open.

"On die car," ne returned with the a ir of one who had Jbeen grossly insulted,

dar ain t none of the passengers 'lowed to wake up the porter, an’ you'll have to wait till this individual wakes up of him sel, before you can get any suoh questions answered!”

With perfect coolness he laid himself down again, and the passenger hurried ° ut o*’ tho car without watting to con­tinue the conversation.—Boston Courier.

A Spanish California Wadding.Nothing was m ore attractive than the

wedding cavalcade on Its way from the bride s house to the mission ohurch. The horses were more richly caparl- sonod than for any other oeremony, and the bride’s nearest relative or family r e ­presentative oarrlod her before him, she sitting on tho saddle with her white satlu shoe In a loop of golden or silver braid, while he sat on the bearskin-cov­ered onquera behind. The groom and his friends mingled with the bride’s party, all on the best horees that oould be obtained, and they rode gayly from the ranch house to the mission, some­times fifteen or twenty miles away. In April and May, when the land was cov­ered with wild flowers, the Hght-hearted troop rodo along tho edge of the up­lands, between hill and valley, crossing the streams, and some of the young horsemon, anxfous to show their skill, would perform ail the feats for which the Spanish Oallfornians wore famous. Aftor the woddlng, when they returned to lead .n the feasting, tho brldo w&r. carried on the horse of the groomsman. One of the oustoras which was always observed at tbe wedding was to wind a silken taeseled string or a silken sash fringed wltn gold about the neoks of the bride and groom, binding them together as they knelt before the altar for the blessing of the priest. A oharming cus­tom among ihe middle and lower classes was the making of tbe satin shoes by

, „ . . be asked his be­trothed for the measurement of her foot, and made the shoes with his own hands; the groomsman brought them to her on the wedding day.—The Contury.

progression, and can make a woman o f K) look not a day over 36 or 30—It, in the Inspection, magnifying glasses are tabooed. But when a woman reaohos the age of 45 or 60 there is one never- falling evldenoe. that the years that be­longed to youth have slipped away, and all the'arts of ancient Rome and th e wonderful discoveries of the present day cannot hide the fact that old age is within a stone’s throw. This evidence Is the hand. The roundness will disap­pear from the oheek with its fairness, and both can be brought baok again. When time clutches the hand of a woman, however, It leaves He mark,'end the Imprint cannot be defaoed.

Declining years may leave an abun- dancelof flesh ln Its wake, but the hand will reoelve none of It, and the skin, that was once ao whito and well filled out, will asttle down to the.bones, russet colored, relieved only by large purple veins that seem bursting with blood. Or If the flesh regains faithful to the contour of the hand the skin gets rough end the color of parchment, and all o f tbe cold creama known to science w/11 do no more than sandpaper the roughness down to small even scales.

During the rehear­sals Tom Oooke, who was the musical director—the grandfather of that Miss Rota Cooke that we occasionally see In Gilbert and Sullivan’s operas—was ln despair of being able to find any one who oould do justice to the solos In "Come, If You Dare.” James Ander­son, the tragedian, who was a member of tbe company, had noticed the flna voloe of a young chorus singer, and sug-

gsted him ae a solution o f the difficulty.e woe laughed at by Cooke. Maoready.

however, becoming impressed by Ander­son’s persistency, desired Cooko to try the young man alone. In less than twenty minutes Cooks returned ln rap­tures of delight. Reeves jnade a great hit, and was nightly encored In his may nlflcent solos.

MANY BRIGHT BITS OF GOSSIP FROMT H E CA PITO L CITY— A BILL TO ABO LISH 'FAK E BENEFICIAL ORDERS LIKELY.TO BECOME LAW'

T h e fifth w e e k of the one hundred and fifteenth session o f the N e w Jersey L egislaiu re has come to tip en d , and w h en one com es to lo o k at the- five w eek s ’ work accom plished, it rea lly is astonishing that eighty- one men co u ld sit fo r so long a period and accom plish so little. T h e re has b een realty no legislation o f universal im portance enacted, that w il l be prolific o f any beneficial re­sults to the gen eral pu b lic . W h ile the passage o f the borough repealer w a s one o f the greatest political blunders ever made b y a party in p o w er, in the history o f the State, and the ears o f its introducer have ru n g with th e words o f denunciation pou red in u p o n ..him b y his angry party colleagues who w e re beguiled in to hastily v o t in g for th is pernicious a ct, to correct the rank injustice per­petrated in th e repealer another act w as introduced in the Senate on M onday by th e Senator from H u n ­terdon, and it w ill in a ll probability be a law upon our statue books by th is tim e n e x t w eek .

T h e little episode w ill have one beneficial resu lt at le a st; it w ill tend to render the majority m ore careful as to just w h a t sort of b ills are p er­m itted to p ass under the m ystic w ord s “ partisan legislation.”

N o w that the Com ptroller and S tate T reasu rer “ plums” have been given out, th e place seekers and the leaders are h avin g a m ighty scramble for the lesser “ plums” and at present th ey are h av in g a good square “ stand up and knock down” old time fight. B u t, o f course, the lenders, that is the real leaders, will w in : they a l­w a ys do. P a rty discipline must be enforced, y o u know , and there is no m ore effective way to enforce it than in the distribution of the “ fat” posi­tions.

Senator K verett was supposed to b e the “ slated” candidate for S uper­visor of the State Prison, but the H on . Jacob K lo tz , of Somerset coun­ty , has developed into a particular­ly strong antagonist to the genial Senator. B o th these candidates are popular ones w ith the masses o f the p arty in p o w e r ; they are both big m en in all th a t the term implies b ig in body, b ig in brain and big- hearted to a degree.

“ I can’t answ er that, Jake,” re­p lied the S e n a to r; “ but if you are appointed w h a t’s to becom e of me ?”

“ O h ,” rep lied the gentle K lo tz , “ when T am appointed. I ’ll do the square th ing b y you ; I ’ ll make you m y private secretary, and you can do the w ork w hile I d ra w the salary and run the farm .”

There w a s a laugh and the S en a­tor replied m a tone o f extrem e gratitude .*

One thing is certain, if K lotz is appointed “ N else” P idco ck w ill b e mad enough to bite a ten-penny nail in twain, and the hills and peaks o f Hunterdon county w ill fairly echo, eloquent and forcible expressions ol indignation from the chief o f the Fourth d istrict.

The New and Beautiful FabricsFOR SPRING & SUMMER.

Lik e a Tropical Flow er Garden.on a large scale.

T H E NEW SPAPER M EN,quick by instinfit and training to scent important and inter­esting news for their readers, gathered in numbers at our recent Opening, almost every Philadelphia paper being rep­resented.

The following are short ex- tradts from their long notices referring to different lines of goods:

(From the Public Ledgtr.)Extensive Display of Spring Stuffs at Straw

bridge ft Clothier.“ The western aisles—tbe silk, velvets aud

cotton goods counters—in Strawbrldge & Clothier mammoth store, Eighth and Marke* streets, yesterday, took on a brilliant hue About a quarter o f million dollars’ worth of. goods, from the finest looms o f the Orient and France, England, Scotland and America, were to he seen. The occasion was the opening 0/ spring styles.

“ A student o f the history o f fashion will at once recur In thought to thu times o f the American and French revolutions, when he. or more probably she, enters the dress goods department. T h e printed challles, In patterns that were generally popular a century ago have experienced a revival and reappear In a myriad striking and attractive design a. A pyramid of challles, with their brilliant color­ing, commands attention at oucc on entering the department. The newest thing is a challie with black ground, on which are scattered flowers of brilliant coloring, Roses, sprays •f lorget-me-not, carnations, fern leaves and daisies, arc some of the designs iu the different webs.”

(F rom the Press.• A tendency » f the coming Bummer's

fashions was shown in every kind of fabric, toward dark or black backgrounds, brilliant figured, not with geometrical or conventional designs, but with remarkably natural and vivid

(presentations o f every pretty blossom, gar- dengrown or found In Held or forest.

Tills Is particular true of the printed silks, almost all of them triumphs o f French art. There are Japanese and Hhangbla fabrics, which owe their beauty to the dyers aud de signers of Lyons. One noticeable piece among a hundred was dotted with pansies, the effect being singularly free from stiffness and con­ventionality.

(F ro m he Inquirer.)“ Along the fo u r great counters full of cotton

goods the feminine eye can fairly revel In delights. A pineapple designs Is exclusively controlled by Strawbrldge & Clothier in this

country. The India Voogeet, the whole pro­duct of which is bandied by this firm, appear in a multiplicity ot refreshing colors and de­signs, and demonstrate how American products are gaining the higlu '. favor. The Anderson ginghams are displayed in happy varieties, and in this connection a novelty zephyr of fairy lightness and American manufacture i« pro­nounced equal to Anderson’s.”

(From th$ Timet.)“ The greatest crowds were arouud the

counters where the woolen fabrics were on exhibition. Here over *4,000 pieces o f French printed challes, made b y the best flrma In the world, were to bo seen and examined. Tbe majority o f the goods bad white on pale back grounds, with exquisite designs o f flowers printed npon them. The carnation, rose, vielet, and all the other flowers w ere to Is* seen in their brightest colors.”

(F rom the North American. )“ The display o f silks alone occupies 860

feet o f counter room. Aud snch novelties, too! The .Japanese and Shanghai silks are something beautiful, tbe figares having the ap­pearance o f being handpaiated. A rt work on black briefly describes them. Then there is a beautiful display o f Bengalines, w hich are big improvements ever gros-grain silks. Some of them are o f soft drapery nature, and are just the things for costumes or di apings. There is a splendid array ot light Pongee silks of domestic manufacture, the goods aud print­ings being the result o f American enterprise. There Is a revival in polka dots, o t which there is a full lias In dots o f every s ize .”

(From the Record.)“ The cotton-printed goods include the

world-famous Anderson ginghams the ‘ zephyr’ being the thlnest and finest ever w oven. No less important Is the display o f American goods which equal the foreign w ork in tex­ture and design. This bouse has the exclusive control o f tbe output o f India pongees, aud the orders from throughout the country in­dicate its steadily growing popularity.’’

(F rom the Evening Telegraph. )“ One o f the prettiest sights to be 6een iu a

day’s stroll at this time is the Interior o f Straw- bridge & Clothier’s spacious store, a t Eighth and Market streets. In the western aisles, where silks, velvets and cotton goods counters are, about a quarter o f million dollars’ worth o f spring goods were put on exhibit for the first time yesterday.,’

(From the Evening Bulletin.)'*‘A brilliant display o f silks, velvets, aud

satins iu all the dolors and shades known to the artist, a delicious blending of the prisma­tic hues and tints qf the rainbow, and artistic arrangements of the Quest and m ost coBlly goods give a faint conception of the appear­ance o f the interior o f the mammoth store of Strawbrldge & Clothier, at Eighth and Market streets; in tbe department alloted to ladies dress goods.

T h e R e v i v a l ,The revival services in the M. E.

Church, of this town still continue, with weekly increasing interest and power. The lecture room is nightly crowded, and a number have professed conversion during the past week. On Sunday even­ing about twenty additional converts were received into the church, making a total of one hundred and twenty who h av e already been added to the membership of that church as a result of this revival, besides a large number who intend joining that or some other church before long. On Sunday even­ing the church was densely packed by the largest congregation that ever met in this town. Not only was every seat filled, but large numbers occupied ben­ches and chairs in the aisles, and many were obliged to either take seats upon the pulpit steps or remain standing. After a brief but impressive sermon from the pastor, a prayer and praise meeting was held for an .hour, during the progress of which several persons presented them­selves a t the alter for prayers. It was announced by the pastor that the nightly meetings would continue a week longer, or as long as the interest continues. Quite a number o f persons o f middle age, and some more advanced in years, who h av e seldom, if ever attended religious meetings o f any kind before have be«n drawn to these meetings ; and

few remarkable conversions have taken place among this class, while others arc begining to manifest an interest that be­tokens a large ingathering to the church from among their number. It is evident to the most casual observer that the whole community is awakened, and is in sympathy with this revival. The major­ity of those converts are young people, many of them connected with the Sun­day s c h o o l; still the work is by no means confined to that class, but men and women of more advanced years, heads o f families are included among the members.. T he pastor, Rev. R. B. Stephenson, seems to be remarkably en­dowed for work ol the kind and his ear­nest, practical, touching appeals to the unconverted seen invaribly to awaken a sympathetic response from the hearts of his congregation. It is estimated that between fifteen and sixteen hundred people attended these meetings last week.

G . A . R . L e c tu r e .The stereopticon lecture in Cowper­

thwait’ s Hall last Thursday evening, under the auspices of A. E. Burnside Post, N o. 59, G. A . R., of this town, was attended by a small bu tappreciativc audience, owing to the revival meetings in the M . E. Church and the threatening weather. It was an illustrated biography of Gen. Grant, the man, who, from the depths o f obscurity in 1861, became the most prominent figure in 1868. The man w ho commanded the largest armies, planned the geatest campaigns, won the most desperate fought battles, and crushed out the most stupendous Rebel­lion ev e r known. It was illustrated by the following magnificent and brilliant illumated views : Grant’s birthplace;battle o f Chepultepic; Grant leaving home in 1861; battles of Forts Donelson, Shelon, Pittsburgh Landing, Vickburg, Wildnerness, Spottsylvania and Peters- burgh, Surrender of Lee ; Portrait of Gen. Grant, taken in 1865 ; Portrait of Gen. L ee ; Inauguration of G rant; Capi­tol and White H ouse; places visited by Grant in his famous tour around the World ; Grants Fam ily in 1884; Reviv­ing memories; Grant's last illness; Deathbed scene; Troops guarding cottage ; lying in state at City hall, New Y ork; Funeral procession; Funeral car ; Tom b at Riverside Perk ; Let us have Peace, Washington, Lincoln, and Grant, and other interesting views.

T O W N T O P I C S .Something should be done towards

improving the street crossings.The grip has made its appearance

again, and many who were attacked with it last year are suffering with a recurrence of the malady.

The recent increase in the number of cases of the grip looks as if the disease is likely to become epidemic. In speaking o f it a physician sa id : “ I have several well- marked cases of influenza or grip, and in nearly every instance it has been with people who have had it before. This year, however, the disease has appeared in a milder from, and yields more readi­ly to treatment. It is thus far unac­companied with any complications, such as pneumonia. The attack generally last two or three days, but in some in­stances continues for a week.

It requires a good deal of faith to trade horses in the dark, but this is what two pine hawkers did on Saturday night last’

No one can afford to ignore public opinion altogether. He may do so now and then in a small and unimportant way without attracting much attention, but let him get out in the current and try to breast i t ; then he will think the contract is a trigger one than he had counted on, and he is carried down the stream with a swiftness that makes his head swim. The truth of this has been oftener vertified in politics than in any other channel of human life, but now and then we see it in other lines. Not very long ago a resident of this town thought he saw it all, and that public opinion was merely a bugaboo to frighten chil­dren ; that it had no actual existence. A man with his wits about him could augh it to scorn. A pet expression of

his was : “ my money is my best friend, and 1 don’t want any better. It has aftvays done for me what no one individ­ual could do.”

This answered very well tor a while until the course of life he was leading led to an open rupture in which the pub­lic had an opportunity to see him in his true light. Then they sat down on him, and sat on him hard. At first he would smack his hand confidently on his well- filled purse and smile contentedly, but when old friends and acquaintances passed him by on the street without even a nod of recognition, he began to grow sour and morose. He got out of humor with himself. He had his money to be sure but even money may become a prosy companion sometimes. Of comforts he had no lack. There were servants to wait on him, and he could go anywhere he chose, but everywhere he went old friends kept aloof from him, or gave him the cold shoulder. No warm welcome greeted him. Now his money grows cold in his pocket and with each sue. ceeding day his visage becomes more forbidding and dissatisfied. He is evi­dently not deriving much pleasure irom his course, but he evidently knows a good deal more than he did, and has probably made the discovery that a man with money but no friends is about as lonely and miserable as a terrier dog in a balloon.

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE. Remarkable Statement of

Personal Danger and Providential

Escape.The following itory—which U t;tracting

wide attention from the prow—ia 10 reniark- abl« that we cannot excuse ourselves If we do not lay it before our reader*, on lire.To the Editor Rochester (N. Y .) Democrat:

Sfit. Ou the first day ot June, 1881,1 isy at my residence lu this city surrouoded by my friends end waiting for death. Heaven only knows the agony I then endured, for words can never describe It. And yet, If a few years previous auy one had told me that I

to be brought so low, and by so terrible I should have scoffed at the Idea. I

had always been uncommonly strong and heklthy, and weighed over 200 pounds and hardly knew, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were. Very many people w ho will read this statement realize at times that they are unusually tired and cannot ac­count for it. They feel dull pains in various parts o f the body aud do not understand why. O r they are exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next. This was just the way I felt when the relentless malady which had fastened itself upon me first began. Still I thought nothing © fit; that probably I had taken a cold which would soon pass away. Shortly after this I noticed a heavy, and at times neuralglce pain in one side o f roy head, but as it would coma one day aud be gone the next, I paid little atteu* |lon to it. Then my stomach would get out of order and my food often failed to digest, < in g at times great inconvenience. Yet, as a physician, I did net think that things meant anything serious. I fancied I was suffering from malaria and doctored myself accordingly. But I got n o better, next noticed a peculiar color and odor about tho fluids I was passing—also that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, aDd that a persistent froth and scum appealed on the surface, and a sediment settled. And yet I did net realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing these symptoms continually, I finally became accustomed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the affected orgaus or in their vicinity. Why I should have been so blind I cannot understand.

I consulted the best medical skill in the land.I visited all the famed mineral springs in America and traveled from Maine to Califor­nia. Still I grew worse. No two physicians agreed as to my malady. 'One said I was troubled with spinal irritation; another, dyspepsia; another, heart disease; another, general debility; another congestion of the base of the braiu; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the symptoms of many o f which I really had. In this way several years passed, during which time I was steadly growing worse. My condition had really become pitiable. The slight symptoms I had at first experienced were developed iDto terrible and constant dis­orders. My weight had been reduced from 207 to 130 pounds. My life was a burden to mya3lf and friends. I could retain no food on my stomach, and lived wholly by inject­ions. I was a living mass o f pain. My pulse was uncontrollable. In my agony I frequent­ly fell to the floor and clutched the carpet, and prayed for death. Morphiue had little or uo effect in deadening the pain. For six days and nights 1 had the death premonitory hiccoughs constantly. My water was filled with tube-casts and albumen. I was strug­gling with Bright’s Disease of the kidneys in its ia^t stages!

While suffering thus I received a call from my pastor, the Rev. Dr. Foote, at that time rector of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, of this city . I felt that it was our last interview, but in the course o f conversation Dr. Foote detailed to me the many remarkable cures of caues like my own winch nod come under bis observation. As a practicing physician and a graduate of the schools, I derided the idea o f any medicine outside tho regular ohannels being in the least beneficial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote, that I finally promis­ed I would waive my prejudice. I began its use on the first day of June, 1831, and took it according to directions. At first it sickened me; but this 1 thought was a good sigh for one in my debilitated condition. 1 continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed aud I was finally able to retain food upon uiy stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change for the better, as also did my wife and frieuds. My hiccoughs ceased and I experienced less pain than formerly. I was so rejoicsd at this Improved condition that, upon what I bad believed but a few days be. fore was my dying bed, I vowed, in presence o f my family and friends, should 1 recover, I would both publicly aud privately make kuown this remedy fo r the good of humanity, wherever sod whenever I had an opportunity, and this letter U in fulfillment o f that vow. My Improvement was constant from that time, and in less than three months 1 had gained pounds in flesh, became entirely free from pain and I believe I ewe my life aud preseat condition wholly to Warner’s Safe Cure, the remedy which I used.

Since my recovery I have thoroughly re-investigated the subject of kidney difficul­ties and Bright’s disease, and the truths developed are astoundlug. I therefore state, deliberately, and as a physician, that I be­lieve more than one-half the deaths which occur in America are caused by Bright’s dis- ease of the kidneys. This may sound like a rash statement, bat I am prepared to fully verify it. Bright's disease has no distinctive features e f its own, (indeed, it often develops withont any pain whatever in the kidneys or their yicialty) has the symptoms o f nearly every other common complaint. Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized by a physician’s certificate as occurring frem “ Heart Disease,” ‘ ‘Apoplexy,’’ “ Paralysis,’ ’ “ 8plnal Complaint,” Rheumatism,” “ Pneu- menia,” and other common complaints, when in reality it is from Bright's disease o f the kidneys. Few physicians, and fewer people realize the extent of this disease o r its danger­ous and lasidlous nature. It steals into the system like a thief, manifests Its presence if at all by the commonest symptoms and fastens itself in the constitution before tbe victim is aware, of it. It is nearly as hereditary as consumption, quits as common a id folly as fatal. Entire families, inheriting it from theit ancestors, have died, and yet none of the number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removeing them. Instesd of ccmmoD symptoms it often shows none what­ever, bnt brings death suddenly, from convuls. ions, apoplexy, or heart disease. As one who has suffered, and knows by bitter experience what be says, I Implore everyone wno reads these words not to neglect the slightest symp. toms of kidney difficulty. N o one can afford to hazard such chances.

1 make the foregoing statements based upon facts which 1 can substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may poss­ibly ba sufferers such as I was. is an ample ndneement for me to take the step I have, and If I can successfully warn ethers from tbe dangeraas path in) which I oneed walked, I sun willing to endure ail professional aud personal consequences.

T H E D ISCO VERYOf the partlonlnr Herbs for curing and preventing disease hv disinfection and changing the natnr- of tmpuce air as breached In the lungs was dis­covered over 80 veara ago by Aunt Kacitki, Sfkkk, an old noted nurse now over 86 pears old who, from her youth up haa been the most suc­cessful nurse known.

She always has and still does go through rain or shine to freely answer calls from the sick.

It was a labor of love without pay and without price.

Aunt Rachbl has gathered th* Herbs and mads aud applied thousands of these pads to rich and poor, without charge, ond in every in­stance the effects were wonderful.

The Pad Is made by qulltldg certain herbs aud medicine between flaps of muslin, and when worn they are made wet or damp, at frequent Intervals, with u tincture which accompaniestlie Pad.

This tincture combining with tho herbs In the Pad Is absorbed through the pores of the skin aud the aroma that arises before the nostrels purifies the air you breathe. It is a prevention and cure.

It Is a wonderful discovery. Address:Aunt Rachel Pad Co.,

DRESSMAKER V3. TAILOR.

,HE OTHER EVEN In e l expected a u#» dross to com , up i. time for m „ to „ ’ to . party to phioJ »« wot* Invited Blx o olook Mr.Bowitr bejln to grow uaeaa, and queried: "Whv on earth didn’t Von

have it hero this moruiog?" " i t Wa* done." "Then y o u should have given your order farther ahead. Mrs. Bowser you a re a very s o ft mark." ’

" B u t the dross w ill be here by 7."" Mat you two farm s to a ce n t ! Never

knew anythin* o f yours to come un w ith in twenty-four hours o f the time prom ised.' This is a nice »tat.e of affairs I m u st say!" ’

“ T h e -tress w ill come."" N o t until to-morrow, and we might

as w e ll make up our minds to stay at h om e ."

It w as there at half-past 6, and he got out, o f it by saying: that It w as a mistake for w h ich tho dressmaker .would prob­ably commit suicide. A w eek later ha ordered a now suit, stipulating that they were to bo sent up a t noon on a oertain day. W e were to g o to a party that night, and a t breakfast I queried:

" B o you feel certain o f your new • lift? "

" B o I foel certain that I live? ” he ri p iled , with u g rand wave o f his hand.

" B u t it may n o t come u p .”" A n d the sun m ay bust its biler and

th* pieces tum ble to earth. The clock w ill n ot have stru ck 12 be fore that suit Is b o r o . ’ ’

B u t when he cam e up t o dinner I had to in form him th a t no suit had arrived

" Oh, well, the parcel b o y is taking jj s lo w ,’ ’ he answered. " I t w ill be hero b e fo re I go.”

B u t it wasn't. Ho waited ton minutes ov er time and then went to the tele­ph o n e and called the tailor up and said;

" I suppose th a t suit has started on its w ay up.”

I cou ld not, o f course, hear the reply. “ W hy, that su it I ordered a week

a g o .”[T a ilor ’sreply unhoard,]“ Y ou haven’t ! That’s a pretty idea!

Do y o u mean to te ll me th a t suit isn’t fin ished?"

[T a ilor’s reply unheard.]“ Well, you so© that you d o ! ’ If it’s

one minute a fter 6 I’ll leave the suit on y o u r hands!"

“ H ow about m y dressmaker?” I asked as h e hung up t h e trumpet.

“ How about nothing! Dressmakers deliberately perjure themselves, while th is was a mere oversight It’ll be up n't V s

‘ ‘A adtLuoS .“ Didn't I say It would bo up at 6?

M ake all your arrangements to go to th a t party."

W h en becam e up at G and failed to find the suit h e turned flvo shades w hiter. Going t o the ph ono he yelled to t lio tailor:

“ Where in Halifax Is that suit o! m in er"

[T a ilor ’s reply unheard.l “ No, It hasn’ t ! What d o you mean

by Buch conduct?”[T a ilor’srep ly unheard.]“ Yes, if it com es at sharp 7, but not

a m inute later ! You fo lks down there m u st have ail been on a drunk this M e e k !’’

“ Is it coming at 7?" I asked.“ Certainly. X didn’t expect it before,

b u t wanted to hurry om u p a little."“ Well, I hop© it will c o m e .”“ H ope! It w ill come, and that’s all

th ere is about i t ."B u t 7 o’clock cam e w ithout the suit. It

d id n ’t come at half-past, nor at 8, and M r. Bowser ca lled up th e central and w as told that th o tailor shop was shut up . He danced up and dow n, rapped on th e box, kicked the cat and told baby to sh u t up, and finally ho fe l l into a chair and lookod at m e In a cold , icy way.
