CATARRH The treatment of Catarrh with antiseptic and astringent washes, lotions, salves, medicated tobacco and cigarettes or any external or local application, is just as senseless as l'ould be kindling a fire on top of the pot to make it boil. True, these give temporary relief, but the cavities and passages of the head and the bronchial tubes soon fill up again with mucus. Taking cold is the first step towards Catarrh, for it checks perspiration, and the poisonous acids and vapors whlich should pass off through the skin, are thrown back upon the mucous membrane or inner skin, producing inflammation and excessive flow of mucus, much of which is absorbed into the blood, and through the circulation reaches every part of the system, involving the Stomach, Kidneys and other parts of the body. When the disease assumes the .iry form, the breath becomes exceedingly foul, blinding headaches are frequent, the eyes red, hearing affected and a constant ringing in the ears. No remedy that does not reach the polluted blood can cure Catarrh. S. S. S. expels frcm the circulation all offensive matter, and when rich, pure blood is again coursing through the body the mucous membranes become healthy and the skin active, all the disagreeable, painful symptoms disap pear, and a permanent, thorough cure is effected. 8. S. S. being a strictly vegetable blood purifier does not derange the Stomach and digestion, but the appetite and general health rapidly improve under its tonic efects.

RUSDRPRE&BDST. J.. L. WILSON UPSET THEIR PLANS. The Story of a Hurry Call For a New York Ambulance. A young physician tells an amusing experience of the days of his ambu lance service. A hurry call was re ceived one day, and he with the am bulance was dispatched with great baste to a tenement in oae of the poor er parts of the city. He climbed sev eral tlights of stairs anc found at the top a family gathered It a dismantled room, su1rrounded by tbeir goods and chattels, evidently ready to move. The patient had been burned,, the doctor knew, but he faled to discover signs of one until the mother of the family explained that ste was the vic tim and amiably volunteered the in formation that she was ready to go to the hospital at any time. She was a remarkably healthy accident case, and the young physician explained that he would have to make an examination and learn the true nature of her inju ries before taking her off. She demurred somewhat wrathfully at this, but finally uncovered one arm, where was to be seen a bad but not serious burn of a week before. It was not a burn requiring hospital treat ment, and the doctor departed, a severe tongue lashing from the would be pa tient following him as he hurried down the -stair, glad to get off with nothing more serious. The woman's wrath had good cause, he found upon inquiry. The family had been dispossessed, and it had been de cided that the husband and children should go for a time to one of his rela tives, while the wife would seek refuge in the hospital. In this way they would tide over their troubles, but the doctor's unforeseen refusal to play his part had upset their plans seriously.-New York Times. HELPING OUT THE HERO. A Realistic Scene That Was Not Down on.the Playbill. In the old days, when a certain Tex as city was not exactly the charming place it Is now, I was playing in "Mon te-Christo" to a crowded house. All afternoon the cowboy of his type of the day had been coming into town for the performance. I could see him well in evidence in the front row of the bal cony, his skin jacket shining and his pistols glistening in- his belt The arch villain was facing his fate In the final act, and I spoke my lines, "Your time has come." Suddenly a cowboy stood up in the front rank in the balcony, I drew his pistol and drew a bead on the 3 villain of the piece. "It' you don't fix I him," rang out his voice, "I will!" I There he stood ready to put the threat I nto execution. I "Kill me quick! Kill me quick!" I cried my fellow actor under his breath, I trembling at the prospect of a more re- I alistic end from the gentleman in the I balcony. But the joke was too good a < one for that. I prolonged the duel as < much as possible, but presently- the 1 arch villain took his first plausible op portunity to expire at my feet. "That's right; served him right. If you hadn't done It, I would!" came ap- I provingly from the voice In the bal cony. But that circumstance lessened my chances to get any one to play the part1 later. Actors would come to me for an engagement in the villain's role and ask, "Are you going to play in Texas next year, Mr. O'Neill?"1 "Yes." "Thank you!" That would be the end of it, for each would say, "Good day!"-James O'Neill I in Saturday Evening Post. . A True Poem. How hard it isto tell .whatimakes a 4 true poem, a lasting poem! When one asts himself what It Is, how many1 things arise, how hard to narrow the list down to a few things! Is it beau ty? Then what is beauty? One meets with beautiful poems every day that hei never thinks of or recurs to again. It is certain that without one thing there is no real poetry-genuine passion. The fire came down out of heaven and con sumed Elisha's offering because Elisha I was sincere. Plan and build your poemi never so deftly, mankind will not per manently care for it unless it has gen uine feeling. It must be impassioned. -John Burrougha in Century. Former Perfumes. Our forefathers were great people for scents and perfumes, fragrant herbs and spices, and the astonishing amount of seasoning they put with the simplest dishes prepares one for almost any combination. When to make a cherry tart they found it necessary to make a sirup of cinnamon, ginger and "sawn ders" and to add rosewater to the icing, one can imagine how they set to 1 work to cook a cormorant Perhaps if we remind our readers that many 1 chambers were provided with "drafts" 1 which occasionally required cleaningi and that rushes took the place of car pets they will realize one of the rea sons for the use of perfumes. "Sweet waters" were occasionally sprinkled under the rushes In great houses or for revels or on the mattresses and bed ding.-Good Words.4 Playing Wagner Upside Down. A London paper tells a story of Wag ner in the days of his youth and pover ty calling upon Rossibi in Paris and noticing "a little composition" of his own on the piano rack. The reply of Rossini when it was pointed out to him that the music was upside down was perhaps hardly up to the best form of "the polite Frenchman." "You see, I found it sounded better that way." Bill Nye's compliment to Wagner was in a happier vein. He told the great composer that he had no doubt his music was really much better than it sounded-London Speaker. Fate Wouldn't Supply Funds. A woman left her husband -a short time ago, giving as a reason for It that she had consulted an astrologer and been told by him that it was her des tiny tobe agreat womani, but that in marrying she had committed a serious error. As long as she remained with her husband she would fail to achieve the greatness fate intended for her. She stayed away from home only four weeks, however. "I see you doubt the astrologer's In terpretation of your destiny," said her sister. "Not in the least," replied the woman, "but neither the astrologer or fate pro vided the money, and as I had to give up money or fame I chose to sacrifice the latter."-New York Press. The Love of Nature. A real love of nature Is one of the most valuable possessions which you can have, since It will continue to af ford you happiness as long as you lve. But in order to have this love you must get It while you are young-while you still have leisure to give it first place In your thoughts. Nature must be your first sweetheart or she will not be your sweetheart at all--Woman's Home omanion. TOADS IN FOLKLORE. eicllan Superstition Concerning the Ugly Little Creatures. The toad has a prominent place in ,olklore. We find the ugly little crea ture distinguished in popular tradition, and that in its most permanent prov ,nce, in local worship and belief. The survival is so strange in itself and so well titted to illustrate the primitive haracter of fairy mythology that It may be accorded particular attention. According to the statements of Dr. 3. Pitre, contained in his excellent ac :ount of Sicilian tradition. the faith of hat island still recognizes supernatu ral beings known as doane di fuora ladies from abroad), also entitled pat ronesses of the house, who have at ributes in common with the fairies of England. Like the latter, during the nighttime they enter houses. where :hey expect to find everything in order. Among mortals they have their favor tes and enemies. Fortune Is consid :red to result from their kindness, sickness and poverty from their perse mution. It is a peculIar feature of their habits :hat they visit the domicile not on any ?vening indifferently, but only on l'hursday, making their entrance by :he keyhole or by cracks of doors. It lay surprises them before they leave :he cottage. they change into toads and n this state remain until the following ve, when they are once more at liber. :y to resume their proper shape of >eautlful women. During the irgerval :he toad is sacred, because it is Impos sible to be sure that any particular me may not In reality be the lady of he house. Legends abound in which Is related he reward or punishment consequent ipon the good or ill treatment of a Fri lay toad. On this day, therefore, the sually unpopular animal is safe from tbuse and secure of attention, more %specially if it chance to belong to a ;pecies possessing a particular arrange nent of the cuticle reminiscent of a ady's jpead of hair. Any person who ccuples himself with folklore becomes rccustomed to remarkable survivals, -et it does excite astonishment to find ;o perfect an illustration of prehistoric hought In central Europe of the twen. ieth century.-International Monthly. THE TELLTALE THUMB. ts Marks and Lines and Its Signal From the Brain. A tremendous amount of nonsense Las been written about thumb marks. t is claimed that the curious skin con iguration on the ball of the thumb is tever the same in any two people and hat it niver changes. The first state nent is correct, arnd the same thing can >e said of the lines on the palm and he creases on the bottom of the feet. lut the assertion that the thumb marks tever change throughout life is a de 4ided exaggeration. The alteration may xme from a variety of causes-any hing, in fact, that will destroy the >uter layer of skin. Another modifying cause Is the tend ncy of the thumb to develop little orizontal creases as one grows old. Lhis is especially true of mechanics and ther working people who use tools, Lnd eventually the creases will break ip the lines to such an extent that It s equivalent almost to a rearrange nent of the pattern. Specialists in erve diseases by an examinnationl of be thumb can tell if the patient is sfected or likely to be affected by aralysis, as the thumb signals, this ong before it is visible in any other art of the body. if the danger symp oms are evidenced there, an operation s performed on what is known as the 'thumb center" of the brain, and the Lisorder is often removed. No matter how carefully the individ sal may attempt to conceal Incipient In anity, the thumb will reveal it infal Ibly. It is the one sure test. If the >atent in his daily work permits the bumb to stand at a right angle to the >ther'fingers or to fall listless Into the alm, taking no part in his writing, his andling of things, his multiform du es, but standing isolated and sulky, It an unanswerable confession of men al dsease.-Kansas City Independent POULTRY POINTERS.

Unnecessary suffering. How much wretchedness and misery here is Ir, the world! Do you add to It >r do you try to help those with whom rou come in contact? Every time you speak, every time you act, you add to some one's happiness or misery. On hich side do you throw your influ nce? Your opportunities may not be ;reat, but do you ever cause unneces ;ary suffering In a world wretched knough at best? It is worth thinking hout. Do you say cruel things when rou might say things that would be dind? If you have the habit, doesn't it sometimes occur to you that you should nit it?

It I3 of Great Value as a Medicini and Highly Nutritious. Starch and sugar when eaten under go a digestive change before they ari assimilated. In honey this change hai been made to a considerable extent bi the bees. It is easy of assimilation an( concentrated and furnishes the sami element of nutrition as sugar an( starch-imparts warmth and energy As a medicine honey has great valui and many uses. It is excellent in mos lung and throat affections and Is ofter used witb great benefit in place of cod liver oil. Occasionally there is a persor with whom It does not agree, but mosi people can learn to use it with bene ficial results. Children, who have mor natural appetites, generally prefer it t( butter. Honey is laxative-and sedative and in diseases of the bladder and kid neys It is an excellent remedy. It ha! much the same effect as wine or stimu lants, without the Injurious effects, and Is unequaled In mead and harvest drinks. As an external application It is Irritating when clear and soothing when diluted. In many places it I. much appreciated as a remedy foi croup and colds. In preserving fruit the formic acid it contains makes a bet ter preservative than sugar sirup, and it Is also used In cooking and confee tionery. In early times, It Is said, Palestine flowed with milk and honey, but we have far more of both today than the people of any age ever had. Honey does not Injure the teeth as candies do. -Health. Patti Made Him Reputation. Adelina Patti was not always such a "gold mine" to managers as some may suppose, says Lei5Ue's Weekly. When she visited New York in 1880, her man ager, Signor Lugo, overreached himself by starting out on a ten dollar admis sion basis, and thr venture was a finan cial failure, notwithstanding Patti's great artistic success. She sang to a fourteen hundreL. dollar house on the first night and on the second to $400. She got discouraged, as it was her own enture, and gav.a It up. The late Henry E. Abbey, who was bold In his speculations, then engaged her and her company at $5,000 per con cert. He began at Wallack's old thea ter at Thirteenth street, giving scenes of opera, and the concerts there aver aged over $7,000 a performance, but he lost In the out of town concerts $20, 000. A little later, being asked by De Vivo to take Patti to San Francisco, Abbey replied: "My dear De Vivo, I have got enough of Patti. I lost $20,000, but I made a reputation." Those Who Fought and Ran Away. During the Spanish-American war, at the recruiting station In St Louis, the following, as related in the Galveston News, took place between a recruiting officer and an applicant who was of Irish nationality: B. O.-How old are you? . E.-Don't know, but 01 must be auld enough. B. 0.-Have you ever been In the army? L IL-Yis, sor. . O.-Have you ever been In any bat tles? L. B,-Oi have. I. 0.-What ones? L B.-Oi've been in all ov them. B. 0.-Were you in the battle of Bull Run? L E.-Ol was. R . 0.-Did you run? L. B.-You bet 01 did, and them poor ivils that didn't run are there yet Venetian Hospitality. Whatever might have been said against the Venetianrs, they were a ospitable people--this, too, in small as well as In great matters. When, for example, In 1476, an embassador from the khan of Tartary visited the city and It was known that the khan and his suit carried but one shirt apiece In their bags, the senate formally voted 20 ducats that they might be provided with additional shirts, which were ac ordingly made "alla tartarescha" and presented.

The dominance of New England sen iment In matters of ancestry and ear y history was Illustrated at a certain meeting of women in New York the ther day when the first English set lement was spoken of as having been ade in Jamestown, Va. "Why, I always thought It ,was In Plymouth rocki" exclaimed a daugh ter of New England. "And so did I," And I," echoed others, at least half f the women present, all of them sup posed to be well educated persons, be ag of that opinion. . Not True to Nature. A favorite joke In cheap theatricals s a gay old man who Is running around after the young and pretty girls. It's not true to nature. Young and pretty girls soon tire of an old man.

The class in geography in one of the Brooklyn schools was being examined the other day when the teacher asked: "What are some of the natural pe culiarities of Long Island?' The pupils indulged In some heavy thinking. but none responded. Sudden ly a fat boy with a red face who had been shifting uneasily about In his seat received an inspiration. "I know." he exclaimed, raising his hand. "Well, what are they?' encouraged the teacher. "Why," said the fat boy, with a tri umphant look around, "on the south side you see the sea and on the north side you hear the sound."
