toniirlit and registered as agent for Hib
bard's Rheumatic Syrup, and as ho did
no it awakened in me an interest never
before realized in ft guest at my house.
You will not wonder at it when I tell
you the btory. For years I liae been
greatly nlllicted with inflammatory rheu
matism, the pain and sojreness of the
joints at times being almost unbearable;
could move about only with the aid of
crutches. In addition to this ray stomach
became badly diseased, and neuralgia set
in, which threatened to end my day. A
traveling man stopping with me give
quite a history of your Syrup, and the
peculiarities of its combination, which
iudiiced mo to try it. I have taken six
bottles and no act in my life affords me
greater satisfaction than in writing you
I am a well man.
It will be a pleasure for me to answer
any communications, for I believe it to
be the best remedy ever lormulated.

Likctknant Schwatka has reported
the discovery of a large tribe of cliff
dwellers in the unexplored regions of
Northern Mexico. It has been the opin
ion of archaeologists that the cave dwel
lers or cliff -dwellers of this continent
ante dated the mound builders and that
the race is extinct. Leiutenant Schwatka
himself has explored the district in Ari
zona and New Mexico in which the de
serted habitation of the cliff dwellers
are found, and he was greatly surprised
to come upon several thousands of living
cliff dwellers in the wild regions of the
Sierra Madre Mountain. He turned nsi.le
from the object of his expedition to in
quire into the habits of these peculiar
people, and he brought to light some
facts that will be of great interesting to
the archaeologists of the world. His dis
covery makes it clear that the descend
ants of the ancient cliff dwellers, driven
from their more northern habitation, re
tired into the mountain regions of
Northern Mexico, where they haye been
living, undisturbed, for centuries, follow
ing the simple habits and primiries
customs of their ancestors, about whom
there has been so much speculation.
STOP IT.
The following from the Salt Lr.ke7Yi
bmie of Thursday doesn't indicate that
that journal extends a very warm wel
come to the cattle in human form brought
over from the slums of Europe
through the proselyting efforts of Mormon
missionaries:
-One hundred and fifty victims cf dirt,
delusion and despair arrived yesterday
from Englaud under the hcrdership of
eighteen holy elders, just in time to be
naturalized ami vote in the August
election. About one third remain in
Salt Lake."
When will congress stop this kind of
immigration? It is fully as undesirable
as an intlux of anarchists would le. ' Ev
ery person who goes through the endow
ment house takes an oath to obey with
out question the mandates of the Mor
mon priesthood. He swears that he will
endeavor to avenge the death of Joe
. Smith, that he will do all in his power to
overthiow all governments conflicting
with that of the kingdom of God, l. e.,
the rule of the Mormon priesthood. A
mm cannot unite with the Mormon church
' orginiUion without becoming a sworn
enemy of the government and of Ameri
can institutions. This is the reason why
tbitJiUtah the Free.Musons and Odd
Fellows never admit iuto their societies a

A. OKI Farmer Tents His lloyn to Decide
Which Shall Have tho Place.
Once upon a time an old man called his
three sons to him In the dusk of the evening,
and in a faltering voice said to them: "My
Iwys.jin a little while you will have no father.
I am standing on tho shore of the river of
death and soon I must launch my boat upon
It. Now, I have, as you know, a splendid
farm, upon which one man can thrive, but as
tiiere are three of you I have been sorely per
plexed as to which should have it. I have
th- ref..! decided to give each of you $3 that
you must spend to-morrow, and to the one
making tho wisest purchase shall the farm be
given. Come to me to-morrow evening at
this time and tell me how yvu have each ex
iended your money. Now, good night, and
heaven bless you all."
On the following evening the three sons as
KeuiMcd before their father. "Reginald,"
said tho latter to the eldest, "what did you
purchase with your two dollars?"
"Father," returned the sou, "I pondered
long that I might make wise use of the
money, and nt last I bought a pair of strong
shoes."
"Well done, well done; the journey through
life is rugged and hard, and the thorns are
thick uion tho way. You have shown pru
dence and forethought ami I love you the
better for it. And what did you buy, Au
gustus?" "I too, thought long and deeply," responded
tho second son, "that I might not purchase
anything trivial or foolislL Since the cap
that I wear is worn and ragged, I bought a
hat with a wide brim, which I show to you,
my father."
Tho old man regarded him with a glance of
pi i.lo and affection, and said: "You too have
J mo well, Augustus; often in this world tho
b:-ow id fevered anl tho sun rays beat fiercely
i;:on tho aching head, and your hat will coni-I-.
t 3"OU. I rejoice that my Eons are so filled
ith wisdom. And you, Theophilus, what
did 3-0U buy?"
"My father." answered Thenphilus, "I didn't
ii-:nder worth n cent. As soon as I left you
i tst evening I blew in my stuff for tivo tickets
t.) the baseball games."
With tears of joy streaming down his f ur-ror.-od
face the venerable man embraced
Ylit.-ophilus, and murmured in a voice hoarse
.viib emoliou: "Had 1 a farm as k'.rge as
'l ::as, with .1 windmill on it, it would be
vours!"
And then Reginald and Augustus moved
: a ll y away into tho gathering glooin, and
ivhiia the one Iricd to keep the flies off him
self with his hat the other kicked himself
severely with his loots. Nebraska State

Tolstoi's Illeak Study.
Tho great Russian novelist, Tolstoi,
writes in a btudy ns bare, l-l'jak, cold and
unadorned a3 are the steppes of his native
ciiine. There is neither carpet on the
floor nor draperies in the window, nor
flowers, nor paintings, nor bric-a-brac.
There scarcely even any furniture
an old lounge, pushed against ono wall,
an immense table in a hopeless litter of
papers, periodicals, manuscripts and
books of reference, near it a chair, and
in an opposite corner a second table, also
covered with pamphlets, but these as
sorted and arranged in piles. The room
i:i divided into two compartments by au
iinpainted wooden partition which runs
half way up to the ceiling and from
wlach depend two wooden rakes used
by Tolstoi in his garden, and in the cor
ner stands a wooden spade above it,
hanging from some wooden pegs, Tol
stoi's great, caped overcoat. Evidently
the famous writer plunges so deeply into
the subject of his writings as to be ob
livious of his surroundings. Pittsburg

Henry Irving' Sapper.
A desire to seo more closely the man
who has given us such pleasure is natural
and excusable. So much may be urged
in excuse for the numbers that often be
siege the stage door of tho Lyceum, their
object being a nearer sight and perhaps
a word from the hero or heroine of the
evening.
"Oil, Miss Terry, it is so kind of you to
speak to us! We do admire you so! We
have leen waiting so long! When do
you think that Mr. Irving is likely to
leave tho theatre?"
"That is more than 1 can say. I don't
think ho has legun his supper j et."

Well, said naughty Miss Terry, very
gravely, "let me see. To-night well,

Protection of Animals.
Tho protect ion of wild birds, fishes and
quad rupeda from extermination has made
good progress 111 tho Imtish Islanun or
lato years; but in mort other parts of tho
world the unscrupulous greed of men
who niako tho capture of wild creatures
a bouicoof profit is rapidly reducing the
nuniljcrs of many r,iecies, and threatens,
if not stopped by the htiong band of the
law, to lead to their utter extinction
Tho most ln.pele.ss caso appears to bo
that of certain marine animals, which
can only lo protected by international
agreement, of which there is no sign at
present. The whaling and sealing in
dustry of this country and America
threatens ere long, if carried on as lias
hitherto been tho case, to extinguish the
race of whales and seals in tho northern
seas. Among birds the great auk has
been hunted to death.whilo in theEOuth
ern Pacific islands certain birds, like the
dodo and the gigantic moa, have ceased
to exist within comparatively recent
times.
In the North American continent there
are races of wild animals which were
abundant twenty years ago, and are now
on the noint of extinction. Instances of
the kind are the bison, or American
buffalo, and the alligator of tho Missis
sippi. Crocodile leather has become so
fashionable of late that the capturo of
alligators in the great river of tho United
States has been pursued as a regular in
dustry, and with such energy tliat the
creature is almost extinct. The valuable
fur bearing animals of Siberia and the
.Hudson's Bay territory have also been
hunted and trapped within the past gen
eration with such success that the supply
is now obtained with increasing difficulty
every year. The last instance comes
from Australia, where kangaroos have
been hunted for their skins bo unmerci
fully that the most valuable varieties are
palpably approaching extinction. Tho
kangaroo skin trade has become so
alarmed that it is urging on the Austra
lian legislators the necessity of a close
time for these animals, if they are not
soon altogether to disappear. London
Standard.
The llerlln Marriage Market.
The published return of the marriages
celebrated in Berlin during the year
1887 i3 rather more interesting than
statistical documents of the kind usually
are. Only 122, out of the 15,209 mar
riages, took place between near blood
relations. Of these, 113 were between
first cousins, and 8 were between uncles
and nieces. Tho remaining marriage
was that of a nephew with his aunt.
Among thoso who were married were
2 boys of 18 and 27 girls of 10 or under,
together with 10 widowers of from 70 to
77, 1 divorced woman of 73 and 1 w idow
of 75. The two last married men of be
tween 43 and 00. In 12,363 cases bach
elors married spinsters; In bal cases
bachelors married widows or divorced
women, and in 1,441 spinsters married
widowers or divorced men; while in 522
cases widows or divorced women mar
ried widowers or divorced men. lwo
widows and 1 divorced woman took
bachelors as their fifth husbands, and 6
widows and 2 divorced women took as
their fifth husbands men who had been
previously married, while 8 widowers or
divorced men married spinsters after
having already buried or got rid of four
wives apiece. In many cases there was
a considerable difference of age between
the contracting parties. As many as 31
women were 30 or more years younger
than their husbands; 43 were from 2o to
80 years younger; and 123 were from CO
to 23 years younger. On the other hand,
in 4,700 cases the woman was older than
her victim. In 84 marriages the differ
ence was between 15 and 80 years; in 1
marriage it was 31 years, and in another
it was as much as 40 years. In Eerlin,
as elsewhere, the young man's fancy
seems to lightly turn to thoughts of love
in the spring rather than at any other
time, for the favorite matrimonial month
is April. But after April, October sees
more marriages than any month, and
also more suicides. London Globe.
Precious Potatoes.
During the civil war the Federal sol
diers suffered severely at times for want
of fresh vegetables, and the sanitary
commission made it part of its business
to supply tho lack. Appeals for anti
scorbutics, such as potatoes and onions,
were sent far and near, and finally came
to be spoken of familiarly as "scurvy
circulars."
The response was immediate and
hearty, and soon tho agents of tho com
mission were distributing the precious
stores five potatoes to a man, perhaps,
or three potatoes and an onion. How
welcome they were may be judged from
the fact that, after eating them, tho
troops were exhilarated very much as if
they had been taking stimulants.
A German lieutenant came into the
commission's depot at Nashville.
"Do 3ou keep sauerkraut for the sol
diers?' he asked.
The attendant pointed to an open bar
rel. The lieutenant grasped some of the
precious preparation, anZ gazed at it
with moistening eyes.
"You Germans eat sauerkraut, don't
you?" said the agent.
"No," he exclaimed, the tears by this
time dropping from his cheeks; "we
swallows it!"
Probably few of the men ever real
ized before that a few onions and pota
toes, or a little sauerkraut, might make
all the difference between living and
dying. Whatever wo may think of the
theory that men should live altogether
upon vegetables, it is very certain that
they cannot live altogether without
them. Youth's Companion.
It has been frequently stated that
steam is driving sailing vessels off the
seas. It appears that about one-half the
tonnage of the world is in vessels pro
pelled by wind, and even in England 45
per cent, of the tonnage is in sailing
vessels.
The musical journal tells of a con
cert programme in London, in .which a
