‘‘Perhaps you would not think so, but
a very large proportion of the diseases
in New York comes from carelessness
about catching cold,” says Dr. Cyrus
Edson. ‘‘It is Buch a simple thnig and
so common that very few people, unless
it was a case of pneumonia, pay any at
tention to a cold. There are a great
many cases of catarrh and consumption
which have their origin in this neglet of
the simplest precaution of every day
life. The most sensible advice Is, when
you have one, get rid of it as soon as
possible. By all means do not neglect
it.” Dr. Edson does not tell you bow to
cure a cold but we will. Take Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy. It will relieve
the lungs, aid expectoration, open the
secretions and soon effect a .permanent
cure. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy gives

A severe rheumatic pain in the left
shoulder had troubled Mr. J. H. jLoper,
a well-known druggist of Dee Moines,

the pain was so severe that he could not
lift anything. With all he could do he
could not get rid of it until he applied
Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. "I only
made three applications of it,” he says,
“and have since been free from all
pain.” He now recommends it to per

Gentlemen:—I have been taking
your Restorative Nervine for the past
three months and I cannot say
enough in its praise. It has
Saved fly Life,
for I had almost given up hope of
ever being well again. I was a
chronic sufferer from nervousness and
could not sleep. I was also troubled
with nervous headache, and had tried
doctors iu vain, until I used your
Nervine. Yours truly,

When the train lor the West was
called, there was a rush of passengers
at the door, and among them was a
small, thin young woman about 20
years old, who had a humble and re
signed expression, and a sharp-nosed.
Iron-jawed female of 45, who was evi
dently her mother. The small, thin
woman had a bundle and a ticket to
St. Thomas. The sharp-nosed woman
had a basket, two bundles and no
ticket at all.
“Ticket, ma'am," said the gate
keeper, as she attempted to follow
her daughter out.
“I'm jest goln' to see Melinda on
the train,’’ she replied.
“Ticket, ma’am, tloket; got to have
a ticket.”
“I’ve got to put Melinda aboard of
the train I tell yet She’s never trav
eled before in her life, and is jest as
apt to git under or on top of the car
as into it”
“Show your tloket, ma’am!” per
sisted the gatetender as he waved his
ticket punch around. “I have to do
as I am ordered, you know.”
“I tell ye,” replied the woman as
she crowded closer, “I’m bound to see
Melinda off! it won't hurt yer ole
railroad any to let me through. Me
linda, don’t you cry, fur Pm a-oomln’.
The idea that a mother can’t see her
daughter pff!”
“Ticket ma’am! You are detaining
fifty passengers. Please show your
ticket or move back!”
“I've got to put Melinda on that
car!” shouted the woman in a
high key. “I’ve got twelve eggs, a
bottle of skunk's lie, two lamp chim
neys, a pumpkin pie, a bottle of hair
dye and a pint of buttermilk in this
basket, and I either go through or
bust this basket right here and now!”
She dropped the bundles and began
swinging the basket around her head,
but it made only two oiroles when the
gatetender smilingly said:
“Wish to see your daughter off?
Pass right in, lady, and stay as long as
you want to.”
“You bet I will!” muttered the old
lady, as she joined Melinda, “but I’m
a little sorry he gave up so quiok.
Good lands, but I could hev made

MAKES A MEAL OP ANYTHINO.
A German \thon Stomach and Skin
Are Proof Against In]nr7.
Leipsic has a sensation in the per
son of Strazini, who. has kept the
medical profession in a state of ex
citement ever since he has made his
appearance there, says the New York
Press. Strazini astonishes his audi
ences by first eating a soup which con
sists of sawdust plentifully mixed
with coal oil. The mess is then set
afire, and after the flames have been
extinguished, Strazini eats the pecu
liar mixture, ladeling it out with a
spoon, writes a Leipsic correspondent.
He follows this up by biting piece
after piece from the lamp chimney,
crushing the glass between his teeth
and swallowing it He washes it
down with a little water. For dessert
he munches pieces of hard coal, peat,
washing soap, tallow candles, pieces
of plaster cast and bricks, boots, clay
pipes, and seems to enjoy the con
glomeration. All this is eaten at one
meal and in quick succession. A lit
tle water is the only beverage in
which he indulges during the meal.
Strazini asserts that he does not feel
the slightest disoomfort from the un
usual diet, and he certainly looks it.
When ho has finished his dinner of
ceramics he pours down two cups of coal
oil, throws his head back and holds a
lighted match to his mouth. There is
a deep, puffing sound, and a flame
three feet long issues from his mouth.
After eating Strazini gives an exhi
bition of dancing as wonderful as what
has gone before. He does it with
bare feet in a box filled with debris
and shreds of champagne bottles,
lamp Bhades, wine glasses, eto. Into
this he dives with his feet, jumps
about in all directions, and ends by
Viimninn. Vila Vinrtrl in + V»a Vinnlrnn /»1nnn
The strange part of it is that he comes
out of it without a scratch. His cuti
cle seems to be impervious to such an
onslaught as his stomach is to sawdust
and brick and burning coal oil. Medi
cal men from far and near have inter
viewed this curious phenomenon, but
are unable to give an explanation of
his wonderful performances.
The Mae of It.
The court had assessed a fine of flO
on the attorney for contempt, and the
amount was very nearly the size of hi s
pile. He put up the money in such a
hesitating way that the court was
moved to compassion.
“If you have any regret,” said the
judge, “for what you have done, I
might possibly remit the fine.”
“Your honor is very kind, replied
the attorney with mock humility,
handing the money to the clerk, “and
I have some regret that I haven’t a
thousand more ten dollar bills.”
Mt;!o of An Old Array Coat.
A professional beggar that haunts
fashionable and semi-fashionable re
gions seeks sympathy by masquerad
ing in an old army overcoat. He is
too young to have served in the civil
war, but the coat is doubtless one of
the several thousand sold from timo
to time by the government as dam
aged, but the blue still has a magic to
draw coins from the pockets of th
passers-by.
Information Wanted.
“Mr. Timmins, I see you have
handed in a joke about a man's moth
er-in-law catching him kissing his
typewriter.” said the editor.
"Yes, si.,” said Timmins. “Any
thing wrong with it?”
“Oh. no. It’s all right for that sort
of thing, but I just wanted to know
whether it was a type-writer Joke or
mother-in-law joke? —
BLACK BUTTONS.
Worn by FoUndin u a U(i of Pair I
alia Maura lay.
Within the lut lew weeks it hu
been noticed that hundreds of men and
women in Chicago are wearing black
badges with the numbers 170.V1895
printed on them in figures of glisten*
ing white 'metal. They are becoming
so numerous as to attraot a good doal
of attention and call for inquiry as to
their significance. Only the wearers
know until the matter is explained
what they mean. Other people scratoh
their heads and wonder.
It has furthermore been observed
that theie sable emblems are to be
seen only on the breasts of the Pol*
anders, therefore, the question that
comes up is, why should the citizens
of that partleular nationality thus
distinguish themselves at this time
from every other class? Being black
the badges are evidently signs of
mourning. But why do the Polanders
mourn? Who are they mourning for?
No greatly distinguished son of the
race has died recently. There is
nothing new in the shape of a nation
al calamity to call for expressions of
grief.
Max Dresmel cleared the mystery
recently by saying that this year is
one of universal sorrow among all
good Polanders throughout the entire
world who have any feelings of affeo*
tlon for their native land. It is the
centennial anniversary of Poland's
complete obliteration as a distinot
and self-governed kingdom. In order
to make the sad event somewhat
memorable native Poles, wherever
they may be found, have agreed to
live the twelve months of 189S as a
period of lament This means that
they intend to deny themselves all
the frivolous and gay pleasures they
have pledged themselves, says Mr.
Drezmel, to abstain from festivals,
dancing, picnics, theaters; in faot,
amusements and pleasurable enter
tainments of every kind.
PHILOSOPHY PROM A DEBTOR.
Snowing now Ho wo* Volnablo to the
PoraUtent Blit Collector.
A collector of unpaid bills has a hard
time of it, but one met a pbolosophl
cal debtor recently who convinced
him of some astonishing facts, says
the Amusement Journal. The collector
said that he had been ohasintr the
philosophical debtor for about six
months and was getting tired of it
It was always "Come around to-mor
row,” or “Haven't got it now." j
“Say,” he said, when he had mjule
his last trip, "are you ever going to
pay this bill?"
“Why, yes, some day,” the philoso
pher replied. "But look here, young
man, I want to show you a thing or
two. How many bills have you in
that pack?”
“About forty," said the collector.
“How long does it take you to visit
all these people?” the philosopher in
quired.
“About a day.”
"What if all paid up promptly?”
“Why, that would be great”
"Would it? What would you do for
a living if all these debtors paid up in
a day?”
The collector looked blank for a
moment
"Great Jerusalem! I’d be out of a
job.”
"Well, then, don’u be so anxious to
collect every penny that is due to
your people. One bill a day is enough.
As for me, come around some time
next week and I may do something
for you,” and the philosopher faded
tway. _
STOOD ALL TESTS.
The Truly Good Man Ho* Boon at East
•*"v Discovered.
Manifold essays, treatises and
poems have been written, with more
or less success, to describe tho qual
ities which make up a “just” man, a
“religious” man and a “sympathetic"
man. Moralists and philosophers
have managed to give a pretty fair
definition of these terms, but fell
short of the reality when they came
to limn a "good” man. Where Plato
•uu oeucca huu duobiua imiou, a yob*
tryman of Battersea earned Turnor
has triumphantly succeeded, as the
following dialogue proves:
An officer, about whose conduct
some question arose, was asked: “Did
you not swear at the child who
opened the door to you?"
“No," was the reply. “I never swear
at any time.”
“Not when you knock your head
against a door?" asked Mr. Turnor.
“No.” answered the officer.
“Then you must be a good man,"
said Mr. Turnor; and the -guardians,
feeling that it would be waste of
time to improve upon this philosophy,
shortly afterward adjourned.
