LOn the Ohief Justice's left is Justice
Field, appointed as a Republican, but

is, too, as all the Fields are. He writes
strong opinions, and is popular. ' He Is a

L great traveler and scholar. Drink? Yes,

A Trick About an~ 011 W~elI.
A few days before the Murphy well
commenced to put forth grease, the rig
and engine house at the Murphy well
were burned to the ground. None but
interested parties were at the wvell at
the time, and reports weore sent out by
them that the lire originated in an exc
plosion of gas. 'The story was gen
erally credited at the time, but a story
has since been circulated to the follow
ing effect: Drilling at the Murphy wvell
proceeded raidly, and, before the owner
was prepared for it, his drill had touched
" the jugular vein," as the oil meni call
it, and the fact was speedily made
known from below. Oil flowed sudldenly
and freely, and the derrick, engine
house and the adjoining bus1hes were
well sprinkled with the greasy fluid. It
was not according to Captain Murphy's
Idea that the outer world should as yet
be made aware that he had a big wvell.
The oil men would soon be flocking~ to
the vicinity, and if traces of the oil (a nd
traces were large and pronounced)
were seen about the ring and grounds,
the four wvinds of heaven, leaving the
Western Union Telegraph and report
ers out of the question, would soon
spread the tidings to the four quarters of
the earth.
To avoid this orders were Issued to
set fire to the scattered oil, and ere long
the derrick, engine-house, and all traces
of the oil which had been scattered
about were licked up by the flames.
Then the story of the gas explosion was
circulated.
It seems to be a generally conceded
fact among oil men that when there is
much gas there is little oil, and so as
the story circulatedl andl was spread by
the newspapers, the general verdict wvas
rendered: " The Murph? well isn't good
for anything." But Captain Murphy
knew better, and as the price of oil stifi
ened a little he s'old short, and when
646, and later tho Murphy, broke the
Smarket, he covered the shiorts and
freaped a rich harvest.--Oil City C'or.

6 Speculation as to the Word " Yankee."
There is a familiar poem, reciting the
Ijtragic fate of a grasshopper attacked by
Ia turkey, which runs thus:.
'Agahoppr sat on a swe t-pt vine,

And yanked the poor grasishopper'
Oft the sweet-potato vine, sweet-potato vine."
This little classic is quoted by Pro
fessor Skeat in his great Etymnlo~gical
, Dictionary to Illustrate the derivation of
the word Yankee. This he t-laces to the
verb "to yank," i. e., to jerk, Yankee,
therefore, meaning quick-moving, and
hence spry, smart, active, The same

a statement.niade by Mr .. 0
of the New YQi* An4-BostonU)L. kc1
Express Company, whose office is .'y b
Btreet. Mr. 'Larrabee was. forn b Uhe
newspaper man in his private ofice, and
on being questioned said:
"Well, sir, logically I have been dead,
Lut really I am as you can see me. A lit
tle over a year ago I[was taken sick. My
trouble was not severe at first, and I
. thought it was the resadlt of a sight cold.
Somehow I felt unaccountably tired at
times,. although I took an abundance
of sloe. Then, again, Ithad dull and stran e
pains in various parts of my body. y
appetite was good one day and I had hone
whatever the next and fny hdad pained
mc more or less much of the time. -A while
afterward I noticed much that was pie
culiar abolit the fluids - I was passinig and
that a sediment, scum and a strange accU
iivlation appeared 'in it. Still 1 did not
realize that these things meantr anything
serious and I allowed the illness to run
along until on the 28th day of October I fell
prostrate while walking along Trenont
street. I was carried- home and did not
go out of the house until the middle of De
cember. I then -went down town-and at
tempted to attend to my business until the
.3th of last January. when I was taken
with a very severe reapse. My symptoms
.were terrible. I'was fearfully bloated; I
suffered severe paips in all.parts of my
body and it was almost imposgible to get
my breath. For six days I 'never laid
down and never slept. f was constantly
attended by my regular physician, Doc
tor Johnson, and Doctor Bowditch also
came to see me nearly every day. There
was no doubt that I was sutiering from
Bright's diease of the kidneys in its
worst form and hst stages, accompanied
by other troubles in my liver aid heart.
In spite, however, of -the skill of the physi
ciaus, I kept growing worseand ilnally they
tapped my side in the vyeity of the
heart, taking away forty-six ounces of
water. This relieved me for the time,.but
I soon became as bad as before. Then the
doctor gave me up entirely, declared I
could not live more than twenty-four
hours, and my daughter, who was residing
in Paris, was telegraphed for. Still I lin
gered along for several weeks, far more
dead than alive, but never givina up hoe.
One night -it was on the 20th of April I
very .well remember-my attendant, wio
was reading the paper to me, began an ar
ticle which described iny disease and suf
ferings exactly. it told ho~ some severe
cases of Bright's disease ha been cured,
and so clearly and sensibly did'it state~he
case that I determined to try the means of
cure which it described. So I sent my
iman to the drug store, procured a bottle of
the medicine, unknown to my physicians
and friends, and took the first dose at 10
o'clock. At that, time I was suffering in
tensely. I could not sleep; I had the abort
breaths and could scarcel get an yair to
niy lungs. I was terribly bloat~ed from
head to foot, and the motion of my heart
was irregular and painful. The -next
morning 1 wvas able to breathe freely; the
pain began to leave me and the bloating
decreased. I continued to take the
medicine, and to- day, sir, I ayn an well
as I ever was in my life, and
wholly owing to the wonderful, almost
mi raculous power'of Warner's SafeKidney
and Liver Cure. I do not know what this
miedicine is made of, or any thing else about
it, but I know it saved my life when I was
given up by the doctors and had really
been dead for weeks; that it has kept me
in perfect health ever since and has cured
many of my friends to whom I have rec
ommnended it. There are a nnmber of very
remarkable cases in Lynn and Salem as
well as in this city, that it has cured. ify
recovery is so remiarkable that it has ex
cited much attention, and physicians as
well- ams others have investigated it thor
oughl y. I am glad they have for I feel
that the results of such a wonderful cure
should be known to the thousands in all
parts of the land who are suffering from
troubles of the kidneys, liver or heart, in
some ot their many dangerous forms."
The representamtive of the press thanked
Mr. Larrabee for lisa very frank and clear
statemen t, and was about to leave the office
when a gentleman stepped up to him and
inquired~ if he were seeking information
abou t Mr. harrabee's siekness and recovery.
The scribe re plied that hie was, whereupon
the gentleman said:
"Anid so am 1, and I have come all the
way from Chicago for that very purpose.
Kuilney trubles~ seem to be alarmingl in.
creasing all over the country, and 1 have
a very near relative who is afflicted muell
as Mr. Larabee was. I have been to see the
physicians of whom Mr. Larrabee speaks,
and I tell yon,sir, it is 'sjmply wonderful."
" What did they say," asked the man oft
',Say!I why, sir, they fully confirm every
thing Mr. Larrabee has stated. I went to
see Dr. D. A. Johnson, at 20 'Worcester
street. He was absent when' I called and
so 1 ste pped into the Commonwealth ibotel,
where Mr. Larrabee was living atthie time
of his sickness. Messrs. Brugh & Carter
are the proprieters, and I asked them
about Mr. Larrabee a case. Mr. Brugh
piointed to the electric annunciator and
said: 'why, for weeks and weeks every
time that b~ell rang, I said: That nmeans
the death of Mr. Larrabee. No one around
the lhotel ever dreamed that he would re
cvr:nil when the doctors. wonld comes
down frm his. room they would shake
tueir heads and say there was no hope.
-ihae arrangements for- the funeral were
izade, and his recovery was simply ,a
inuiraee.'
I then called on Dr. Johinson, who said
that Mr. Larrabee's case was a very remark
a ble one. He was his family 'physiclan,
and exnccted his death every hour for a
numbni-i of w~eegs, arnd never called to see
hiun dumg that time, but he was prepar
ed for it. The dogter said the recovery
was due to WVarner's Safe KIdney and ly
r' (iure, and if he 'had friends, male or fe
imlle, k-oubled with Albumen or any kid
ney troubles, he should certainly advise
th-em to use this remedy. D~r. 'Johnson
'anid kidney dhitflcultie are more common
than most people think, and that many
symptoms which are suyposed to be other
diseases arise from thea kidneys. He said
that ladies after gestation are specially
subject to albunminous troubles, which re
quire prompt atiention.
Well, I thenm came down and called on
Dr. 11. Ingersoll Bowditch on Boyhstonv
street. The old doctor was inelirted to be
reticent, hut fully confirmed all I had pre
v'iousl y learned. He had attended Mr.
Larra bee, and supposed him beyond all
hope, and he was afterwards res~fared, as
lie said, by Warner's Safe Kidney' and
Liver Cure.
I next went t6 see Dr. Melylll#E. Wrebb,
a t the Hotel Cluny,,for you see I 'was de'

A prominent surgeon remarked the
other day, after performing a painful
operation on an interesting little girl
whose feet had been ruined by wea
wrougly constructed shoes, "this is the
beginning of a large harvest of such
cases," and what else can be expected?
Mothers walk the streets with heels on
their boots from two to three and a half
Inches high and not more than an' inch
in diameter, and their daughters follow
the same bad afid barbarous prac
tice. In many -cases severe sprains of
the aikles are stfered. But these are
not the worst points of the high-heel
torture. The toes are forced against
the fore part of the foot, and soon begiin
to assume unnatural positions. In
many cases they are actually dislocated.
In others the gat toe passes under the
foot, and the dons harden in that po
sition, and lameness is the result, for
which thete is no cure but the knife.
When the injury does. not take this
form it assumes other aspects quite as
grave, and perhaps more distressing.
There are thousands of young girls
tripping along the streets to-day who in
a ew years will be cripples if their
parents do not Interfere and remove the
oause. We shall have a race of women
almost as helpless, as far as the feet are
concerned, as those of China.
We oonde"mi the practice of confin
ti the feet of children In wooden shoes,
yet that practice Is no more inju
rious to the feet than forcing them into
a small shoe with an Alpine heel. This
Is a matter of grave and serious import,
and henc, we press It upon the moth
ers and' fathers of the land. If they
would not feed the surgical hospitals
and have groups of maimed daugh ters
In their homes the~y must commence a
crusade upon the high heels. No father
should have high-heeled boots in his
[house any more than he would have a
vicious dog in his parlor. When prom.
inent surgeons from the operating room
raise their voices against high-heeled
boots it is time for old and young peo
pie to pause and listen. At this period
they can choose between high heels and
the operating knife. In a short time It
may be the latter or permanent lame
