It is an easy thing to account for the
wonderful growth of the Daily State
Journal recently. Its price has been
reduced to 50 cents per month without
Sunday or 65 cents with Sunday. The
Journal has always been reliable and
honest, printing the news without fear
or favor. The people of Nebraska realize
tbat they need a paper published at the
capital, and when the price of the Jour
nal was reduced the subscription list
grew at a phenomenal rate. The Jour
nal is a Nebraska paper through and
through.

For a pain in the side or chest there is
nothing so good as a piece of flannel
dampened with Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm and bonnd on over the. seat of
pain. It affords prompt and permanent
relief and if used in time will often pre
vent a cold from resulting in pneumonia.
This same treatment is a sure cure for

"I had great luck to-day,” said Mug

W. A. McGuirs, a well known citizen
of McKay, Ohio, is of the opinion that
there is nothing as good for children
troubled with coaids or croup as Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy. He has used
it in his family for several years with
the best results and always keeps a bot
tle of it in the house. After having la
grippe he was himself troubled with a
severe cough. He used other remedies
without benefit and then concluded to
try the children’s medfcine and to his
delight he soon effected a permanent
cure. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by
P. C. C. Corrigan, druggist.
Yeast —Bacon has gone on the stage.
He says he’s going to fill Edwin Booth’s

Henry Wilson, the postmaster at
Welchton, Florida, says he cured a case
of diarrhoea of long standing in six
hours, with one small bottle of Cham*
berlain’s Colio, Cholera and Diarrhoea
remedy. What a pleasant surprise that
must have been to the sufferer. Such
cures are not unusual with this remedy.
In many instances only one or two
doses are required to give permanent
relief. It can always be depended upon.
When reduced with water it is pleasant

HE'S AN HEIR.
Bat Sergeant ••Billy" Blair Will Stlok
to the Faroe.
It would be difficult to find s hap
pier man on Manhattan island than
Police Sergeant “Billy" Blair, who it
attached to the city hall station.
“Billy," as his companions style him,
has fallen heir to a fortune of 930,000,
left him by his uncle, Lewis R. Blair,
and yet when seen the other evening
he yas as assiduously delving into
the depths of the Poliee Manual
as though nothing unusual had hap
pened.
“Will I leave the department?” re
marked the sergeant. “No, sir. Fifty
thousand dollars will make no dif
ference in me. I’ll remain right here.
I’m too fond of my duties and com
panions to permit suoh a trifle as 950,
000 to change my course of life. By
the way, that puts me in mind of
something. Say, do you know that
my uncle, Lewis, was a son of Robert
Blair, of Marlborough, Ulster oounty,
N. Y., a member of General Washing
ton’s life guards and the identical
soldier who gave Major Andre his
last breakfast on earth. Proud of my
genealogical tree? Well, I should say
so. And if ever you visit the parlor
of my humble abode you will find
Robert Blair’s honorable discharge by
George Washington framed and given
a prominent plaoe in my collection of
valuable paintings.
“How many years have I been on
the force? Well, I guess you may
say aa. One of the old volunteer fire
laddies? Yes, sir, and proud of the
distinction. I haven’t got the 930,000
yet, for I understand that Surrogate
Arnold’s decision is to be appealed
from. Bat it will make no difference.
Nothing but old age will drive me
from the department. What’s that?
Purchase a racing stud? No sir—but
excuse me, I must attend to my
duties,’’ and Sergeant Blair proceeded
to answer a hurry call on the tele
graph instrument.
TOLSTOI,
And the Challenge He Threw Down to
the Cian
I dare say that many of my readers
will have wondered how it is that the
novelist, Count Tolstoi, should be per
mitted to profess such very socialistic
and revolutionary doctrines in his
writings without hindrance on the
part of the Muscovite authorities, who
have sent many another to the mines
of Siberia for utteranoes in speech
and print not one hundredth part as
inflammatory as those of the count.
In the first place several of his rel
atives hold high office both at oonrt
and in the government administra
tion, one of his cousins being minister
of the interior, while another is chief
of the household to old Grand Duke
Michael. When the novelist first com
menced to write in his present in
cendiary fashion the emperor sent
for him and urged him to desist.
“Will your majesty,” answered Tol
stoi, “doii for an Instant your impe
rial mantle and judge my works, not
as an Autocrat, but as an ordinary
man? If a single word of my writings
offends your human sense I will cut
off my right hand.”
Alexander became thoughtful, did
not reply, and affably took leave of
the novelist, who, no matter what he
has written, has ever since, by his
majesty’s orders, been treated with
astounding immunity in oonneotlon
with his socialistic writings. The
osar, however, was unable to prevent
him from being exeommunicated for
his heresy by the holy synod, of
which M. Pobiedonotsoff is the chief.

Supporters of the telephone system
in Birmingham can now be placed in
communication with Christ church in
that city and practloally take part in
the services. The telephone wires
run straight into the pulpit, and the
listeners at the otner end of the sys
tem can hear the tolling of the bell,
the prayers, the responses, the sing
ing, and the sermon. Even casual
oonghing among the congregation can
be distinguished. There are many
classes of persons on whom this new
departure confers a great boon. The
sick and bedridden, who have long
been preyented from attending any
place of worship, can now be present,
if not in flesh, in the hearing.
roo Knoll for Her Pride.
A French conjuror, who was per
forming in Nantes, announced at a
certain stage of the entertainment
that his next trick would be to out off
the head of some one present, and he
invited volunteers to come up and sub
mit to the operation. Upon this a
young man, “who was known to have
quarreled recently with his fiance,”
presented himself with the resolu
tion of despair, and everything had
been made ready for his decapitation,
when the lady, who was also present,
broke into pieroing screams, rushed
onto the platform, seized her intended
by the arm and dragged him from the
hall. _
Who Made This Meat Fussier
We should like to know the name
of the author of the following puzzle
and anagram:
A-old woman with-Intent
Put on her-and to market went:
'•-," said she, ‘Tire me, I pray,
The wherewithal to — this day.’’
Each of the blanks is to be filled
with a word of four letters and the
same letters occur in each of the five
different words. These words are
consecutively, “vile,” “evil,” “veil,”
“Levi” and “live.”
Presumption.
Thomas Sheridan, the father 01
Lady Dufferin, once displeased his
father, who, remonstrating with him,
exclaimed: “Why, Tom, my father
would never have permitted me to do
such a thing!” “Sir,” said his son, in
a tone of the greatest Indignation,
“do you presume to compare your
father to my father?”

THE JAP’S CLOCK.
An Odd Tlmapleoe Used bp tin Old*
Tima Or Ian tala.
The real Japanese cloak, one of the
kind in use among that brown
skinned, almond-eyed raoe of Orien
tals before they oame in contact with
timekeepers of European pattern, is
the oddest horological instrument
imaginable. They are of many kinds
and patterns, of course, but are all
alike in one respect, viz., in recording
the flight of timo without that seem
ing indispensable adjunot— the point
er rotating on an axis.
In these queer Jap time-keepers
the scale and figures (characters) are
arranged in a manner more re
sembling a Fahrenheit thermometer
than anything else, the pointer or
“hand” being attached to a rod,
which is continually sliding downward
in the “timo tube,” thus pointing to
the hour and minute as it slowly but
imperceptibly falls toward the “bulb"
or "weight house.” A square-linked
chain is attached to the upper end of
the rod, to which the time pointer is
affixed, and when the clock is “wound
up” it is simply done by coiling the
chain around the toothed whool. A
heavy weight fastened at the other
end of the rod continually pulls rod
and pointer downward, thus plainly j
and simply recording the flight of
time.
t slaves or custom*
There are no tables in the houses of
the Esquimaux, and the women are,
therefore, in the habit of placing
everything' on the floor. A Danish
lady employed several Esquimaux wo
men to do some washing. Entering
the wash-house she saw them all bend
ing over the wash-tubs that sto.od on
the floor. To make them more com
fortable, she had some stools fetched
and placed the tubs up m them. By
and bye she looked in to see how they
were getting on. and to her astonish
ment discovered the women standing
on the stools and stooping still more
laboriously over the tubs, which still
remained on the floor.
Most Precious to Him*
A passenger who escaped uninjured
from a serious railway smash, seeing
a fellow-traveler searching anxiously
among the wreckage with a lantern,
offered to assist in the search, and
thinking the old man had lost his
wife, asked in sympathetic tones:
“What part of the train was she in?"
Raising his lantern and glaring at the
kindly disposed passenger, the old
man shouted with indignant distinct
ness that triumphed over physical in
firmity: “She, sir! she! I am looking
for my teeth!"
