"Do you know what I would do?" ventured an officious groomsman, wh< had come to cscort the judge to church "I would just put on my morning coa and start at once. 1 do believe tha this will be the very best thing you cai uu just uu?. "Bring mc a hatful of last year's hail but pray do not mention my morning coat, nor put in a plea for my trousers.' cried Winkler, laughing wildly. "Om can see the sunshine through my coat and leaving out such trifles as style am cut, my trousers, which were black tei years ago, are now of such a hue as t< be totally indescribable. Man is alway a laughable object Avhen he is gettin; married,even at his best; but if 1 arra; myself as you suggest I am half afrait that Aurelia would say 'No' instead o 'Yes' when we meet at the altar." "But what is to be done?"' urged tin groomsman. "What can you do? It i gettiug late. Did you not say that tlv tailor said 10 o'clock. See, it is 11:30,1 cried Charley Held, nervously. "lie certainly said 10 o'clock," th judge answered, solemnly. "Weil, suppose we send for your dres suit?'' said Charley. "What are you dreaming of?" returnee the judge. "It would take more thai an hour for any messenger to <fet frou here to the tailor shop." "You are right,"sighed Charley. "Bu tell mc what was your reason for order ing your wedding clothes so late?

I always put oil things unti the very last moment, and now I am ti be punished, 1 suppose," and Hcnr Winkler threw himself into an arm-chair "Look at my new dress suit," sail Charley Held, smoothing his coat dowi in front of a long dressing glass "Doesn't it lit me well? Oh, 1 wa smarter than you, judge, for my dres suit was ordered in <;ood time and sen homo a week ago. I had it made ex pressly to wait on you." "Your lecture may be very amusing, groaned the judge, "but it fails to kce] mc out of this muddle." Suddenly the judge bounded up fron the arm chair, grasped the astonishe* uuariey dv inc snouiucrs, ana iookcu a him fixedly, while lie cried: "But you can help mc if you will, ol< fellow.

"Well, what of that?" asked Charley as the judge devoured his figure witl his large brown eyes. "Don't you see, iny dearest friend, how you can help me? Why, you 1111131 lend mc your dress suit so that I car hurry and get married," the judge said, impetuously. "What could Mr. Held do! lie gave one hng, despairing glance at his tall, file figure in the glass, and thought ol the charming Bertha, whom he, as besi TYmn wnc to tr* tl?r? nltjir VlrK he had contemplated this pleasure foi weeks, and now he was to be undressed, like a naughty boy, in ihe middle of th< day! He was anirry with himself thai he had strutted before the glass auc called the judge's attention to his drcs< ait, but some one had to suffer, evi dentlv, and so Charley resigned hi; new clothes to his enraptured friend. It took Judge Winkler but a moment to slip into the dress suit, and soon lx had arrived at the church, c^cortcd b; the faithful Charley, who had donnec the perforated morning coat and th< despised trousers. Winkler was the happiest of men, and Charley one o the faddest, as he walked up the r.isl< with the lovely Berthi on his arm, a whom he dared not look, for fear she would break off her engagement witl him. An hour later the newlv-marriec pair went in the cars steaming away t< Greenwald, where they were to pass thei honeymoon. The judge had bribed th< guard to give them a separate carriage lie had thrown off his overcoat aud sa with his arm around his wife, pressing her tight against Charley Ileld's dies: coat. "My dear husband, did you not as sure me that you never smoked?" tlx newly-wed spouse demanded. "You arc certainly right, my littli darling," the judge replied- "I neve smoke." ' Well, what is that in your coa pocket?" the girl asked, smiling. "It is nothing but my note book,' the judge answered. P"A note-book, indeed," cried Mra Winkler. "I will bet anythiug it is i cigar-case." About half a minute later the youn: wife had thrust her nimble fingers it her husband's pocket and had drawn ou a real, true cigar case, and such a cigar case?all embroidered and perfumed and bearing 0:1 its back this inscription "To my dearest." Casting an angry and astonished looli at her husband, .Mrs. WinKlor said: '"What made you deny the fnct thai you smoked? Did you thiuk I would be displeased? lint tell me,"she added, in a changed voice, "who embroidered this case for you?" "Now I am in a predicament,"' the judge thought to himself, and laughed nervously, at which his wife seemed to regard him with increased displeasure. "This cigar ease belongs to a friend of mine," he stammered. "This is a pretty tale," cried Mrs. -1 xr:_.......

The cars stopped for a while, and Judge Winkler left the train that tie might procure some fruit for his bride. While the judge was absent his wife utilized his absence in perusing the note, which ended with, "Your always loving IJertha."' This capnert the climax. Here she was ou her wedding tour, just beginning life with a man who could deceive her so shamefully. She was almost wild with anger and pain. When Judge Winkler returned with the lunch his wife would not speak to him. She had taken another seat and refused even to look at him. As the train approached a second stopping place Judge Winkler, almost beside himself, exclaimed: "Aurclia, you must listen?you must answer me! Speak, and let me hear how I have had the misfortune to offend my soul's idol!" Aurelia seated herself opposite her husband. She looked him stra'ght in the eyes and said: "I intend to leave you at the next station." ? ' I "Great heaven! you surely do not j mean what you say.

Here, take your love letter and let me go," she said, handing him 5 the rose colored note. The judge glanced at the note, and, laughing wildly, lie struck his forehead with his open hand.

Lakes of Solid Salt in Asia. | I Yar-oilan means "the sunken ground," ! and no word can describe the general api pearance of the valley of th'.-se lakes. ! " The total length of the valley from the 5 Kangrua'ii road on the west to the Hand- ! i-l)o/.au, which bounds it on the east, is ; about thirty miles, and its great breadth ' about eleven miles, divided into two j parts by a connecting ridge which runs ' across from north to south, with an ' v.,.4. 1 vm\ r....* ^ avciu^w iiui^ui ui auwui J,OVU Ji:iai) uui . j has a narrow, which rises to some 4UO J feet above the general average.

The valley of this lake is . | some six miles square ami is surrounded I on all sides by a steep, almost precipi: tous, descent, impassible for baggage I animals, so far as 1 am aware, except by ' | the Merv road, in the northeast corner. ' I The level of the lake I made to be aliout r j* 1,430 feet above sea level, which gives it ? I a descent of some 40!) feet from the level 3 i of the connecting ridge, and of some WO feet below the gcner.il plateau above. * The lake itseif lies in the center of the ' ' basin, and the supply of salt in it is apn parentiy unlimited. " i The bed of the lake is one solid mass | of hard salt, perfectly level, and covered ^ | by only an inch or two of water. To j ride over it was like riding over ice or . cement. The bottom was covered with j a slight sediment, but when that was j scraped away the pure white salt shone ! ' I out below. How deep this deposit may j j be it is impossible to say. for no one has j | yet got to the bottom of it.

Sclcrtintr n Silc After ti I?ny*s Journey wltli a Dour Team?Feeding1 ?l?e IlmiL'rv Canines. In an article in the New York Times describing the daily routine of an Esquimau's life, Lieutenant Schwatka tells how the "igloo" is built at the end of a day's journey, lie says: The two conditions necessary for a good camp are water and 5,now; that is, near a fresh water lake or river where water can be procured by digging through the ice, and deep snow banks of such quality that it will make good material for a snow house or, as the na tives call it, our igloo. In a very hilly country, especially one of a granitic formation, arctic lakes and rivers arc numerous, very deep, and therefore seldom frozen to the bottom, consequently almost any of them may he depended upon to furnish sullicient water. As the country becomes more level the chances decrease. In prospecting the Esquimau throws himself ilat 0:1 the ice at full length, and where no snow covers it he presses his llat pug nose against it, and by some varying peculiarity of the hues he can tell pretty closely whether it is frozen to the bottom or not. He is mis taken now and then, however, and after digging through six or seven feet of ice lie finds to his disgust that there is nothing but line mud at the bottom. I have known six holes to be dug on one lake with this result. In such cases snow or ice must be melted. This process consumes more oil and postpones the evening meal about an hour. Where oil is plentiful, as on short journeys, and time is no object, the subject of water is not so important, but it is seldom 011 j a long journey that both these conditions are in a party's favor. Hc'ieving there is water in a lake, the travelers have I reached, and a good day's journey having been performed, the spot on the lake where the snow houses will be built depends on the best snow for that purpose. .1 ?,.,i 1,,. ectui-r or an iron rod two or three feet long and about the diameter of a lead pencil, with which thev prod the snow at its greatest depths along the shores of the lake. By this test they can determine its consistency not only on the surface, but as deep as they will need to cut it in making the blocks for the snow house. Snow that looks well on the surface may be worthless for building purposes a few inches below, and a bank of loose snow may cover a compact one of splendid texture for these curious snow houses. I have seen them, however, m od all around the rim of a lake half a mile across, and then be compelled to move on to the next. When the first one who fiiius a good place gives a shout indicating that he has been successful in his prodding, he leaves his stick standing upright in the snow to mark the spot, and with the j others brings the dogs and sledges to the j building site, and operations are com- i menccd on these hyperborean dwellings, j Imagine a brick painted white and in- i creased in size about three or four times, I then you will have a snow block. Take j a spiral course of these snow blocks as- | cending, and each one leaning a little 1 more than its previous fellow, | until the last one, in the top, is j perfectly level, and the whole structure, j leaving out the clnnKs mm cracKS uc j twcen blocks, looking like the half of an ! cgir shell, and you have an igloo. We : had three of these igloos built evenevening for our party of nearly ^0 souls, I and this buiiding occupied about an I hour. Half an hour is passed in prospecting for water and good snow, halfj an hour is consumed in completing the ' snow bed inside and spreading thereon the reindeer skins for the bed, the fixing j up of the lamp and kettle with the lire i burning, and one hour is passed in cook- I ing the fooil. j When the building site has been i selec ted a couple of ihe party, generally ; nearly full-grown boys, proceed to dig j [ the well through the thick ice to the fresh water underneath. Operations are | [ commenced with two tools, an ice scoop , | and an ice chisel. The ice scoop is a | musk ox ladle, fastened to the end of a j light pole about ten feet long, the latter j being a chisel or a sharpened bolt on a ( similar poie. A hole is cut in the ice : about a foot and a half in diameter and j about six or eight inches deep with Ihe ice chisel, and the chopped ice formed in ; this operation is taken out with the icc scoop and deposited alongside the well. This alternation of cutting v.itu use chisel and removing with tlie scood is | kept up until the water is reached, four to j six or seven feet below. The greatest ! depthwe ever had to dig was ci^ht feet ; and fourinclics on a small lake where we l thought getting water at all was very j doubtful. One object in keeping tli's I hole or well of a good diameter is that if j : ny salmon exist in the lake or river they can be caught with a hook and line | through it, this being a pleasant duty of the boys and old women, who thus often catch a good meal of these delicious lisli. I The iirloo completed and a snow bed j made inside about two feet hiiyh, the ; sledge is unloaded, and the reindeer j skins spread on the show be I, the first [ layer, of untanncd o!;es, being hair side down and the next of soft skins, being \ hair side up, on which the natives sleep j without clothing. If during the day : the sledge has upset or the wind has , been drifting the snow, or in any way the snow could have gotten on the reindeer skins at the top of the load, they arc thoroughly beaten with a snow stick kept for that purpose. It is this peculiarity which distinguishes reindeer skins from all other arctic fur?the ease with ; which snow, however damp, can be re- j moved from it by this process. The lamp's lire f;oing, while waiting for 1 he j meal to cook it is customary for all the! party to partake of half a pound to a I pound each of raw fro/.en meat, after the ! manner of the midday lunch. If the dogs have not been fe 1 for two or three days it will be now in order to give them their semi weekly feeding,and this requires a good deal of time and patience. They are only fed once even other day even when the canine hrder is amply supplied and they arc doing their hardest work, while on long journeys, where an ample larder occurs only at rare intervals, the times of feeding arc more likely to be every third and even fourth day. And when fed every other day, if the food is ample,they will jxo indefinitely on the hardest work and retain theirguodcondition. Oncof the hard cst things for the dog driver to manage is the feeding of his animals so as to give each one his share, which is seldom all they want to cat. If the food is cut up into little bits, so that the dogs can swallow it at a gulp or two, and spread upon the ground or snow, the little ones will get nearly all of it, for the first reception of food is always greeted by the big ones belligerently,indulging in ail unnecessary squabble to determine supremacy, and while this is going on the little ones are as busy as chickens picking up the bits. 2\othin<r can be more comical than to sec a leeding of this kind among a large band of dogs, for by the time the huge fe'lows arc through lighti ig, the food has disappeared, and you sec them go smelling around the ground in the most foolish lookinir manner, with a look of disgust on their faces as if they were wondering what they were lighting about anyway, the little ones forming a circle at a respectful distance, licking their chops gleefully, while you imagine you can almost see them wink at each other at the good joke thev hive played on their larger brethren, hungry are the dogs at all times that a small igloo | is built alongside the living one in which j to store the sledge lashings, dog harness ' and everything of the nature of skins and leather, or even cloth covered with grease or blood, for could they get at them the ravenous beasts would tear them to pieces. The dogs fed, the evening meal of cooked meat and soup disposed of as at breakfast time, the tired travelers turn in between their robes of reindeer to rest from the day's exertions, having first put some, inflammable material near them to light from a little flame left burning at one comer of the lamp? this to be thrust through the top of the igloo should any hungry wolves make a descent on their dogs to kill and cat them n u x n Mli UJIU S ikliur.

One workman said such ti small watches had to be bought on the ti principle of a chance in a grab bag, as s' they sometimes turned out good time si pieces and at o'hers were wholly unre- fi liable. The young lady noticed, how- r; ever, that whenever she loaned her live f hundred francs bracelet to her sister the c watch kept much better time, and when si she kept it locked up in her jewel case it d kept the time almost as well as an orrti- b nary timepiece.

Godard go up in a balloon alonu with his brother and drop the latter out from among the clouds in a parachute. It is said that the feat had never been at* jj tempted before in the history of balloon- ,i( ing, it was a startling novelty, and the people crowded to see it. When the balloon sailed gracefully upward outside ^ of the inclosine M. Godard and two Jj friends were in the basket, while below j: .M. K. Godard, his brother, was seated ()) upon a small b'.rof wood attached to the |)( parachute. It looked like an immense urn* brella. The balloon went over the Schuyl- |(| kill in a southwesterly direction, and .(j after it had reached an altitude of about (j. ('?,()()') feet began to slowly descend. 0< Then the parachute began to expand. a, When within about :!,0U0 feet of the earth the coril was cut and the para- ^ chute rapidly descended, with Godard ?; hanging on the bar. The balloon shot js upward again. The descent of the para* tj, chute was keenly watched by the thous* jj, nnds of snerliitors mid ni:inv nxnnrtnd . to sec the tlarinir man dashed to tlie = 0j earth in the twinkling of an eye.

VISIT TO THE HAT7STS OP LOKDOIT'S CRIMINAL CLASSES. Petticont I.anc" anil tlie People Found There?Own in ail who it* Iwmii Prnlxrlpil from UnTIIli One of the very worst districts of Lonon (probably the very worst, now that i'atteii garden is no more'), writes a Lonon correspondent of the St. Louis Post>iKj)tt(c/i, is that long, narrow lane, witli s neighborhood, known to the initiated 3 "Petticoat" lane?to the uniniatcd as [iddlesex street. The dangerous classes of London and aris differ in one most essential respect om the sainc kind of people in Ameriii. Probably the very worst slums of 'cw York contain no creatures whose riminal genealogy dates baclc beyond :ic or two generations. London, 0:1 the contrary, was a great ity prior to the discovery of America. Is slums reckon their age by centuries, liilc the inh ibitan:s are the result of >nggenerations of depravity, and could, ere it fashionable in those localities to cep a family tree, trace their descent in rime back from father to son for many enerations. Petticoat lane has one feaire peculiar to itself. That is the great unday market from which Ka^r Fair ikes its name. On week days the eighborhood is nearly deserted, at ight almost equally so. The crimlal tendencies of Petticoat lane arc ot of a noisy or demonstrative sort, 'his is the srreat criminal manufactory f the world. Here the most dangerous lieves, housebreakers, and murderers raduate and serve their apprcnticcsbi; s, vc, and die. Many of them are utterly nknown to the policc save by name and lie clicets of their life work. Scores ol liem have never been seen by moital eye tiier tlia.i their "pals." Ilcre the Fagins f London society ply their trade. In al! appearances Middlesex street is nc of the quietest streets in London, iccasionally, however, a knot of villainus-looking men will gather in some corer of the street, talking in low tones, nd in a language as unintelligible, to rdinarv mortals a3 Sanscrit.

Into the houses which line cach side f .Middlesex street, and fill the court? nd alloys within the arms of that great ioss, no one save the inhabitants or the iolicc in trios and quartettes have ver set foot. Yet, stay, there is ne person who is always welomc, and whom the vilest and lost murderous ruflian would protect dth his life, and that is the doctor. The iihabitants of London slums have learned hat in the epidemics which now and gain?almost every year, in fact?rage nth the fury of the plagues of old anions he denizens of those filthy and overrowded houses, a doctor is a necessity. Ylien wounded and bleeding, as the rc ult of some unholy midn'ght raid, the lodern Hill Sykes Hies, like a wounded tag, to his covert, death will surely en ue unless a doctor can be persuaded tc iikc the case in haud. It is a religior fith London heathens?the only oni hey know, save the honor that exists mong thieves?to protect the doctor. Protected by two policemen in uni orra and a cictcctivc m piain clonics, lie writer of this artie'e once made I liigrimage through all that was visible f five of these houses. They were nol he worst, for into those nothing short ol orce could gain admission, but thej k'cre very bad. In two of them the policc howed a large trap in the floor.

Slam's Sacred White Elephants. None of the colorcd lithographs of the white elepliauts of Siam,. says a Bangkok letter to the New York Sun, convey even the remotest idea of their color or general appearance. Thcic is only one respect in which white elephants can be ' said to agree, or in which writers arc in anything like accord. The so-cidlcd white, gray, red, or "oft" color is supposed to be the result of some unhealthy condition of the animal, corresponding to what is called in man and beasts the albino type. There is in this type a correspondence of color ic the eye, which is a pinkish yellow, or in the white cleI rtf Ann iim'Uai* rlnenpilwio if flfipn I |?U?14. if uu* m.tv. ... r | Naples yellow." It is not a point, howi ever, of which many persons, for obvii otis reasons have ever made a profound study.

Every writer who has visited Siam, cither in an otlicial capicity or as a literary tourist, has written about them either with uninteresting copiousness or with unsatisfying brevity. " Among the titles wlrch I'owiing says have been given to them were, "The Glory of the World," "The Eaith Leveller," and "The liadiancc of , the World." In 1.147 three white cle! phants were captured, in 1518 four, j so that the then king of Siam pos! I sessed seven, aud all the nations < .! of the world camc to do him j honor. This number seeming superilu- j ous to tlic king of Pega, he begged two ( | of them, and when the modest request j was .rctuitd lie brought against his par- . j simor.ious rival an army of '.100,000 men, | with 7,000 elephants and 1/3,000 horses, and took from him not onlv his sacrcd . pachyderms but his kingdom. When the white elephant died, soon after Howring's vis-it, the king of Siam sent some . j of his hairs to (.Jucen Victoria as in 111s eyes the most priceless of gifts.

"IIow many cigarcttcs can a girl make . in a day?'' was asked of a manufacturer recently. : j '-That depends upon how nimble her fingers are. A smart, quick girl cau make about 3,."500. The pay is from seventy to eighty cents per 1,030, ac' cording to the grade of cigarcttcs made. 1 There are very few girls who can make more than 2,003 per day. Making the > cigarettes looks easy enough, but if you i should try it you would lind it very hard : and tedious. When a girl coes to her > work in the morning she receives a small bundle of papers and two and threequarter pounds of tobacco, from which , she must make 1,000 cigarettes. A small i piece of extra heavy paper about twice ! the size of a cigarette paper is used in t rolling a cigarette. One edge is pasted f fast tn a niece of marble or smooth flat ' stone about one foot square that is on a ! j table. A stiik about a foot in length i | anil about as thick as 2 match is used to j paste with. The paste is made of pure starch and water. The cigarette p:iper 1 is laid 011 the heavy paper, and a small ? quantity of tobacco is put 011 it. Then the edge of the heavy paper is turned I over, aud, by sliding the flat of the hand 1 over it, the cigarette is rolled. Then the .. paste slick is run over otic edge of the cigarette paper, and one more roll coin! ! pletes the cigarette. After the ends are j cut oil it is ready for 1 he trade. I 1 (!rea1, caution must be used when roll. ing and pasting, for if any were pasted 1 j crooked or soiled in any manner, or made 1 | too hard or too soft, the thousand would I be returned to the nvikcr, who would [ j have to make them over again. This t 1 happens very often, and is a loss of scv| end hours to the maker. There may be j plenty of enjoyment in smoking cigar[ ette-, but there is none in miking them. ? Xcw York Sun. Approaching Earthquake?. The earthquake slioeks which were . felt last week over a wide area in Yorkshire remind us that an authority on the subject of those phenomena, M. Delaui ; nay, of Paris, is of opinion that next i | year will sec the recurrence of upheavals . j of the earth's crust in an intensified form. [ M. Dclaunay is a prophet of evil, but unfortunately all his prophecies have hitherto come true. Ilis specialty is earthquakes, and lie predicts them only , tco surely. In 1877 he announced that [ that year would not conclude without ; disturbances of the earth, and as a mat[ tcr of fact, two frightful catastrophes011 the coasts of South Americ.i followed. In 1883 M. Dclaunay again pointed to approaching earthquakes, and soon alter the volcanic eruptions in the Indian archipelago occurred, by which thousands of human beings lost their lives, . and hundreds of square miles of terratirma were engulfed by the sea. Toward . the end of last year M. Dclaunay once more raised his warning voice, and the earthquakes in Spain proved how well founded were his warnings. Quite recently he has prophesied very severe volcanic disturbances for 18fU>. Having acquired a well-merited notoriety in foretelling earthquakes, some weight ' ought to be attached to -M. jjeiaunay s uttcrnnccs. lie affirms that next year . the.'e natural phenomena will be of a very intense character, and that they will show themselves either when the earth is under the direct influence of a planet of tha lirst rank, such as Jupiter, or under that of a group of asteroids, or at a time when sun and moon are nearest to our planet at the same time.? Iron. Swedish Manners. One great peculiarity of traveling in Sweden is the extreme quiet and lack of [ Hurry. ilic frwcuisn arc n taciturn aim noiseless people. They do much by I signs, and never shout; a Swedish crowd I makes singularly little sound. Swedes, j even of the lowest class, never push or jostle. It is the custom to do so much bowing and hat lifting that one is obliged to move more slowly than in I Kngiand to give time for all this couri tesv. When a train leaves a platform, , ! or a steamboat a pier, all the lookers on I lift their hats to the departing passcnj gcrs and bow to them, a compliment re- { j turned bv the travelers. If you address , the poorest person in the streets you < must lift your hat. A gentleman pass- i j ing a lady on the stairs of a hotel must j j do the same. To enter a shop or a bank I with one's hat on is a terrible breach of i I good manners. If you enter or leave a l | colfee loom you must bow to all the oo- 1 I cupants.

They are bare-footed, bare-legged,bare-armed, and wear just sufficient rags to save themselves from the charge of indelicacy.

How is it that Arabs contrive to live in the waterless deserts of that muchtalked of-region. Tlicy are, to begin with, abstemious in their habits, and know every crevice and hollow in the hills where water will collect. They regard this fluid more, perhaps, in the light of a luxury than as a necessity, aud use it with wonderful economy. They would never think of wasting it on the exterior of their bodies, and consider that once in forty-eight hours is often enough to replenish the inner man. General Colston tells us that when Hedouins came to his camp water would be offered them, Cut olten be refused with the remark that the visitor had drunk yesterday. By cultivating this habit of abstemiousness ihey are able to cover immense distances, which would be impossible for a European, unless he were accompanied by baggage animals. ? Chambers' Journal.

"What was the trick f" "Dar wuz loadstone put intode glass balls, an' likewise onto do bullets; so when de bullet fly outen de gun, it an' de ball ;e3' drawed tergedder, which, in course, brokes de glass ?rlfl.tR dn trfok!" Later, Undo Zach observed a rope running along tho side of the car. "B03S, what's dat line furf "To apply the air-brake in case of accident." Then we had further to explain how the force of tho brake was obtained, to which Uncle Zach responded: "Look a here, boss, you sholy don't 'spect me to b'leeve dat foolishness? Why, do biggest harricanrs whatever blowed couldn't stop dis train, runnin' forty railo a hour. An* you think I gwine to b'leeve a little pipe full of wind underdo kyare can do it? No, sah-roc!:' Thf.ro are a great many Uncle Zachs who judge everything simply by appearances Tho air-brako do?s not sojm to bo a very powerful thing, but power and efficiency are not necessarily equivalent to bigness and pretense. Phillip Boers, Esq., who rosidei at the United States hotel. Now York city, and i* engaged in raising subs riptions for tho New York World Bartholdi perlostnl fund, was onco upbraided by a distinguished relative who was a physician, for commending in such enthusiastic terms, a romody that cured hiui of Bright's disease eight years ago. He said: "Sir, has the medical profession with all its power and' experiences of thousands of years, anything that can cure this terrible disorder;" No; no, that is tru?, there is 110 mistake about it but that Warner's safe cure is really b wonderfully effective preparation. That remsdy is an "air-brake' that every man can apply, and this fact explains why it has savoi so many hundreds of thousands of \ivts.?Copyrighted. Used by permission of American Rural Home.
