THE Hayes Center Republican
expresses our sentiments on the
contest nonsense to a nicety : "All
this blab about a contest should
cease at once. Let us accept the
situation , go to work to uphold the
business interests of the state , and
act like men , as republicans should.
There is plenty to do. "
THE Cambridge Kaleidoscope
expresses the opinion that John
M. Thurston "will get the hearty
support of the representatives from

A DOcTon'S PHILANTHROPIIY.
Thousands Afflicted by Catarrh
Under Free Treatment.
The first day of November , 1893 ,
Dr. Hartman gave his consent to
take charge of the treatment of
10,000 cases of Chronic catarrh
free of charge. The announcement
vies at once published in all the
leading papers , when the applica-
tions'came pouring in from every
state in the Union. With a large
number of clerks and stenographers -
ers to assist him , the doctor actually -
ally directs the treatment of thousands -
sands of cases by correspondence ,
which costs the patients nothing ,
except the necessary medicines ,
which are obtah ed at the nearest
drug store. To become a patient
it is only necessary to send name
and address describe symptoms ,
and minute directions as to diet ,
sanitary regulations , and other advice -
vice will he sent promptly ,
1Vherever Dr. Hartman is known
the name of Pe-ru-na has become
a household word. It is safe to
say that no medicine in existence
is used by so many families. This
is especially true of this time of
the year , when the people are liable -
ble to catarrhal affections , coughs.
colds , la grippe , etc. Pe-ru-na
his cured more cases of chronic
catarrh than all other medicines
combined. The great majority of
those who use it buy the remedy
themselves , use it accordity to directions -
rections , not even reporting their
case to Dr. Hartman until after
they are entirely cured. But now
that a limited number of cases can
secure the personal attention of
Dr. Hartman free of charge , it is
not to be wondered at that many
prefer to do SO. Pe-ru-na nevt't
fails to cure catarrh when properly
used.

HOW WE WALK.
The Muzciea Used and the Mechanical Work
Thi t They Do.
The chief muscles concerned in walk- .
are those in the calf and back of
leg , which , by pulling up the heel , also
pull up the bones of the foot connected
with it , oral then the whole body , the
weight of which is passed on through
the boues of the lug When walking ,
the truck is thrown forward so that it
would fall clown prostrate were not the
right foot planted in time to support it.
The czlf muscles are helped in this action -
tion by those on the front of the trunk
and legs , which contract and pall the
body forward , and the trunk , slanting
forward when the heel is raised by the
calf muscles , the whole body will be
raised and pushed forward and upward.
This advancement of each leg is effected -
ed partly by muscular action , the inns-
des used being (1) ( ) those on the front of
the thigh , bending it forward on the
pelvis ; (2) ( ) the hamstringmnscles , which
slightly bend the leg on the thigh ; (3) ( )
the muscles on the front of the leg ,
which raise the front of the foot and
toes , preventing the latter , in swinging
forward , from hitching in the ground.
When one foot has reached the
ground , the action of the other has not
ceased. There is another point in walk-
ing. The body is constantly supported
and balanced on each leg alternately
and therefore on only one at once. Hence
there must be some means for throwing
the center of gravity over the line of
support formed 1'y the bones of each leg ,
as it supports the weight of the body.
This is done in various ways , and hence
the difference in the walk of different
people. There may be slight rotation at
the hip joint , bringing the center of
gravity of the body over the foot of this
side. This "rocking" motion of the
trunk and thigh is accompanied by a
movement of the whole trunk and lea
over the foot planted on the ground and
is accompanied by a compensating outward -
ward movement at the hip. The body
rises and swings alternately from one
side to the , Iner as its center of gravity
comes alternately over one or the other
leg , and the curvature of the spinal
bones is altered with the varying position -
tion of the weight-London Hospital.
THE POWER OF POETRY.
Scott's Description ef'tlce Chase and What
the Ordinary Man Would Have Said.
Take , as a single instance of the power -
er of poetry , Walter Scott's opening
lines in the "Ladyof the Lake , " where
he describes the chase of the stag. The
stag escapes and evades his pursuers ,
but what a picture the great poet has
put into words !
Reduced to prose the ordinary observer -
er and writer would have said , "They
chased the stag several miles , but lost
him in the Trosachs. " Ho could not
possibly have said in prose :
The atlered monarch of the waste
Sprung from his heathery couch in haste ,
But era his fleet career ho took
The dewdrops from his flanks he shook ;
Like crested leader.preud and high ,
Toss'd his beamed frontlet to the sky ;
A moment gazed adown the dale ,
A moment snuffed the tainted gale ,
A moment listened to the cry
That thicken'd as the chase drew nigh.
Then as the headmost foes appear'd ,
With one brave bound the copse ho clear' ; ] ,
And stretching forward free and far
Souht the wild heaths of Uam Var.
The poet began his picture with an
incident that only a poet would have
thought worthy of words , but what a
picture the few words make !
The stag at ere had drunk his fill
Where danced the croon on Monan's rill ,
And deep his midnight lair had made
in lone Olenartney's hazel shade.
-Forest and Stream.
Fire Easily Obtained.
The average civilized man would be
hard put to it if ho were compelled to
start a fire without snatches , tinder boxer
or burning glass. But Lieutenant von
Hohnel describes an African chief as
not only accomplishing this feat , but
doing it with quickness and ease. The
traveler had asked him to show his skill.
It was really wonderful , in view of
the moisture laden atmosphere , with
what rapidity ho did as I had requested.
The materials employed were such as
we saw wherever we went-two simple
bits of .wood , one flat about six inches
long and not quite an inch wide , with
a row of grooves on one side , the other
about 12 inches long and of the thickness -
ness and shape of a lead pencil.
The longer piece , fixed in one of the
grooves of the shorter piece , was held
tightly between the palms of the hand
and whirled rapidly round and round.
In a few seconds the wood dust which
was produced by the friction , and which
fell through the grooves , began to smoke.
This dust was carefully nursed into a
blaze , which was fed with fine grass
and bits of cotton stuff.
The whole thing is done so quickly
that our men , even the lazy Wasungu ,
always employed this method on short
halts for lighting their pipes.-Youth's
Companion.
No Word Like the Doctors.
Mr. Sydney Holland enlivened the
guests at the annual festival of Poplar
hospital by relating an incident which
occurred within the walls of that insti-
tution. A man was brought in whowas
thought to be dead. His wife was with
him. One of the doctors said , "He is
dead , " but the man raised his head and
said , "No , I am not dead yet , " where-
1pon his wife admonished him , saying ,
"Be quiet ; the doctor ought to know
best.London Echo.

ant will happen ? "
