Solinuuol'A Celebrated Prescription for Consumption The celebrated proscription of rock and rye , or white rock candy and rye whisky , seems to have originated with Hon Ellis B. Schnabol , a member of congress from Pennsylvania , and was Urst published in the Now York Sun sovornl years ago Mr Schnubol claimed that he himself had been in the last stages of consumption and had been cured by this rotneay It is mndo as follows : Take five pounds of pure white rock candy nnd dissolve it in a gallon of old rye whisky the older the bettor The whisky must bo distilled in the old fashioned way , with a copper worm Always got the pure white rock candy The clear white rook is pure ervstalizcd sugar , and saccharine matter , you know , is the most nourishing of all substances Put your five pounds of white roolc candy into u gallon of whisky and sot it on your table Lot it remain there un til the candy dissolves A week muy go by before It is absorbed by the whisky Whenever you pass the 'dcraii John stop nnd give it a good shaking , nud have your wife and dnughtor or the sorvantsdo the same In this way it will sooner dissolve , and you will find yourself the owner of a cordial soothing and delightful , as far superior to cod liver oil as maraschino to catnip tea Mr Schnubol's theory of the patho logy of consumption , says the American Analyst , is peculiar and not worth ontur- ing into It will sullico to say that ho claims that the condition of the lungs is similar to that of chronic ulceration and that the rock and rye converts it into an acute Inflammation , when the alcohol by'oxydlzlng and thesaccharino matter by building up ttio tissues will produce a cure Bo that as It may cases are oitoJ where this course ol treatment has stopped the cough , built up the system , and the patient has rnpldly gained flesh and become well The directions for taking the mixture are : Take a sherry wluo glassful on going to bed On wnking in the morning tnko two-thirds ns much on nn empty stomach , Curry a flask in your pocket und take a spoon ful a half dozen times a day whenever you think of it Your object should bo to keep your stomach continuously em ployed in , talcing up rich und nourish ing matter The cordial will check cold night sweats , nnd the patient will secure iong and refreshing sleep All lung fever will disappear You will fool uq raoro pain in your chest ; may llnally become so enraptured with the elixir that you will And it dllllcult to drop it when its use is no longer necessary for the preservation of your health Now as to your diet wfillo feeding on this elixir Vou must avoid nil vinegurs , plcklos , sour wines , mult drinks and suit provisions of nil kinds , Touch fresh pork under no clrcum- stances Acids nnd fresh pork promote ulceration , and iucrenso the very dif ficulty you are trying to euro , No coffee - fee should ho used , for it fevers the blood and neutralizes the ngonoy of the succhnriuo matter Drink black tea Eat roast boot rare , broiled steaks , mut- toil chops well done , toasted broad , and nil kinds of vogetubles , Ono of the best nrticlos of food is a rum omelotto , mndo exclusively of the yolks of ogee There is no nourishment in the white of eggs , The object is to enrich the blood , The blood is the gront agent to build up weak und dilapidated constitu tions , and it must bo furnished with the necessary materials to reconstruct to em , This treatment nnd diet enriches it so that it is bouud to wiu iu the end MM MlMl in llllilf * uinii " - - - - - - rmiiiM n.VEnUN imos ljettlntHltiWn tlio Illoes 15 pounds granulated sugar $1.00 ; 10 pounds extra O-Htignr , $1.00 ; very best country butter in rolls , 10c , 12Jc , 15c ; Tory good creamery butter 17c ; Tory best crenmory'butter ' , 10c ; flour 60o per 60 pound sack ; good flour 05c ; snow llako $1.00 ; suuorlatlvo flour $1.35 ; Tory best Minneapolis sUporlntlvo llour$1.60.

THE MERIT SYSTEM Mr Ilojovclt on the Principle or the Civil Service Imw Theodore Rosovolt , in the Fobrunry Century , says ; The cheap vnrioty of demagogue tnkes great delight in call ing the merit system Chinese , ' appar ently because ono of its adjuncts is the competitive examination , while in China thoir-has long existed a clumsy and overgrown system of such examin ations As well might ho inveigh ugainst our alphabet because the Chinese have long had a cumbersome alphabet of their own , or against the use of guupowdor because it was first used in China , or dcelino to carry a Winchester rifle because jingals have long boon known In the east Again , ho mils at the system us English , ' and ns tending to produce un 'olllco-holding aristcrncy ' Of course ho does not believe - liovo these arguments ; ho cant nnd re tain his sanity While England was a purely aristocratic community the ' spoils system flourished there far moro rankly than ever it did here ; and it is only since England has began to take giant strides towards democracy that she has introduced the merit sys tem , which the founders of our own re public regarded as the only ono worthy of a free and high-inindod nation A system which opens the public service to all men , ot whatever rank in lifo , who provo thomsolvcs most worthy lo enter it , and which retains thorn in olllcoonly so long as they servo the publio with honesty , ollleioncy and courtesy , is in its vorv essence demo cratic ; whereas , on the contrary , the spalls system which still obtains in most European kingdoms , and reaches its fullest development uudor the des potic government of Russia is ossou- tially undemocratic , in that It tronts the public service not as the property of the whole people , to bo administered solely in their iutorest , but as a bribery ohost for the bonollt of a few powerful in dividuals , or groups of individuals , who use it purely in the spirit of personal or political favoritism " Tim Soliorlni : Machine There is some talk bore about reviv ing the sobering machlno , " says a Doylostown , Pa , dispatch to the Noiy York Time Forty years ago it wns a familiar niece of mechanism Simple in conatructlondurubla in use , it served its purpose well and olToctlvoly In these days a drunken mnn wns a rare eight A few citizens of this pluco remember member it well Jack Reynolds wns ono of the men who manned the ma chlno nud ho recollects when it did yoo- mnn service But the persons who fall victims to it nro too modest to recall its purifying effects It was devised because it was noocs- sary , and it consssted of the running gonr of an ordinary wagon with the hind wliools taken off and n box fas tened to the axle Sobriety was the wutchword of the half dozen men who run it Whenever a drunken man or womau wns soon on the street the ma chine wns brought out The victim was placed on the broad of his back in the box Thoii' ' the command was gl von and the occupant wns run out of town It was Buldom that a man got the scc- und dose of the "soborlng muchino " The trumps goon got to dread the ride of a mlle or so , and they nqvor returned nster the first experience The wife heater fared the same , und its inlluonco hud a salutary olTcot on this class of pee ple The old inhabitants suy that the "sobonng machine of ucnrly a half century ugo was much moro offootivo than the throats and violence of the White Cups of the prosentduy MORSE DRY GOODS CO , Sucoossor to S.
