application of caustics, instruments, ,rnedicstsd
bougies and other impirical devices, is here
clearly demonstrated, and the entirely new
and highly successful treatment as adopted by
the celebratedauthor, fully explained,b by means
of which every one is enabled to cure himself
perfectly, and at the least possible cost, there
by avoiding all the advertised nostrums Of the
day. This lecture will prove boon to tboa-

HGyTHE New LoAY.-Sec. Chase's $50 loan
having been all taken up months ago, he has
placed another in the market, which is adver-
ii sed in to-day'S paper, under the head of "U'
s. 1910 Bonds" The advertisement explains
the matter in clear, comprehensive way.
The Secretary appeals to the great mass of
the people to sustain the Government by sub
scribing to this loan. There is no more Sc
cure investment to be made, as the whole
country is pledged to sustain it. Ifthe people
come forward with their surplus funds, and
take up the different loans which the Secre-
tary places In the market, our armies will be
sustained, the war ended sooner than it other
wise would be, Union arms would triumph,
and the bonds would be as good as gold. On
the ether hand should they Withhold and hoard
up their capital and legal tender, or invest in
stocks or individual securities, and thus allow
the Union to go by the board, what would all
their green-backs, individual securities, and
the like. be worth7 Perhaps cents pound,
and perhaps not so much The interest on
these bonds will be paid promptly in gold,
and although it is bat 5 per cent, it is equiv
alent, at present, to or s per cent. in popular
currency. To sustain the arms which protect
our homes from the ravages of JEFF. Davis
tarbarians, the currency must be sustained
Capitalists are well aware of this fact, and
they are consequently taking up the loan at
the rate of nearly a million day, having i'm
phcit confidence in the security of the invest
ment, as we'll as in the righteouse6s of the
cause.

Mount Carmel, shaking the dust iIom the
beard grown even to his knees. Nine grim
ming skulls are before him. He seizes and
hurls them from the top Of the mountaini and
they go bounding down from rock to rock
They are the skulls of his patents, Of his wife
and six small children, all of whom have been
able to die; but he cannot, He rushes into
the flames Of fallen Jerusalem. and attempts
to bury himself beneath the crumbhng ruins
OF Rome; but in vain. Flying from cities
and men, the waEdeFer seeks the solitaEy
places Of the earth. Passing beyond the re-
giOn of verdure and Of dashing torrents, his
feet tread the seas Of amethyst and opal
Above him are only peaks shrOuded in misls
and eternal SHOWS The daring eagle scars
not 50 high. There are no sounds save the
cracking of the glaciers. The soul seems al
most to touch the heavens above There,
surely the Wandering Jew shall restI No
An Angel unsheathes flaming sword Of fire,
and, lol the wanderer beholds once more in
the heavens the drama Of the CrucifxiOn.-
The way from heaven to earth Is storied with
myriads of celestial beings radient with light
Before him are all the martyrs, ths saints and
sages who ever lived and died. For a NO
ment he gazes upon this vision, then turns
away, chased by the sword Of flame and de-
mons of fightfnl form.
Again he wanders over the earth with FIVE
pieces Of copper in his pocket, ever with the
mark of blood upon his forehead. Maddened
with the agony of life, he throws himself into
the crater Of Etna, but the boiling liquid and
sulphuFous flames harm him rot The foods
Of lava vomit him forth, for his hour is not
yet come. Embarking upon the sea, the wind
raises its surface into mountain wayes--the
vessel divides, and all perish save the Wan
deriug Jew. Too light to sink in the ocean,
its waves cast him upon the heated shore.
He pluBges into hundred bloody conflicts
without sword or shield. All in vain. The
leaden balls rain harnlessly upon him battle
axes and scimeters glance from his charmed
body. Where mounted squadrons fight with
the. fury of demons, he casts himself under
the feet Of the hor5emen and is unharmed, so
riveted are his soul and body together. He
says to Nero "Thou art drunk with blood
To Christian and Musselman, Thou art
drunk with blood" They invent the most
horrible tortures for his punishment, yet in
jure him not Leaving in his vain pursuit
of death, the lands that throb with life and
industry, the Wandering Jew threads the
solitary jungIes of the tropics. lie walks in
poisoned ar. Fierce Aerpents sport around
him but none dare venture to harm. And
thus he wanders,
"Traversing mountains and seai,
PEusing neither in the cities nof tie deserts,
Nowhere-nOt even the tomb"

Our Story GIIer.
A DETECTIVES STORY.

MEN are Oftel amazed at the talent and
cunning that experienced villains employ
in carrying forward their plans of plum
der and crime. And it is not ungrateful
to Our feelings when we find officers of
Justice resorting to a measure Of talent
and cunning even greater than their own
to arrest and bring to punishment these
desperadoes in crime. The following in
cident in New York police life taken
from the Curiosities Of Crime, " is a case
in point on this subject. A Detective
tells the story as follows:
Several years ago I had with much diff
fculty arrested a clerk in leading jew
elry house, who for long time had not
only successfully purlOined from his en-
ployers, but had as successfully diverted
suspicion from himself. He made no
confession when apprehOnded, and was
very sullen; but l got facts enough to
give me a clue that the property he had
taken was sold to the Ehrwitz Brothers,
who for series of years had defed by
their fnesse" all the exertions of police
and magistrates. After commitment he
was "habeas oorpused plague on those
bothersome writsl Instead of being helps
to justice, as in olden times, they had got
to be mischievous, and oftentimes-as in
the case I now speak of-mere lodges to
help an escape. Being somewhat his cri-
minal guardian, I was selected to care for
him on his way to the judges chambers
and back again. The argument over, he
was remanded; for there was nothing N
the points made for the liberty Of this
citizen" as the counsellor with much
bUmbast contsndsd.
just by thee corner of Leonard and Elm
streets, as we were going to the TOmbs,
two intensely countrifed fellows came
