An Interesting Question - Can Com
sumption be Cured?

This question Is often asked but rarely an
swereh TO the satisfaction of the patient.
Our answer Is that pulmonary consumption
in its incipient form is as durable az any
other disease, If only the tight remedies are
applied, The question naturally arises as to
what are the remedies2 In reply, we state
that Marsden's Poctoral Balm has been used
successfully in over Il million of cases, and
has been adopted by physicians as the most
reliable remedy known for the treatment of
Bronchial affections.
One great reason that Marsdens Pcctoral
Balm has gained such popularity, is the fact
that it is within the reach of all, and can be
purchased from all dealers at fifty cents for a
small or one dollar n large bottle. One bot
lie will effect - cure in most cases.

How TO GET RID OF JoBBING Con-

rejoicing over its defeat of the CONNER

B. Payne, said on the OCCASION: But
is there any hope tor REFORM Yes. and
my solemn conviction is this. that the
Democratic party alone, without the as
slstance of the Independent Republi-
cans, can do nothing. The experiment
has been tried here, in Cleveland, and
the Democrats and Republicans work

of reform have accomplished great re-

any reasonable sacrifice to secure the
correction of the present abuses? ALI

OLD MEN FOR OFrIcE-There seems
to be sort of tidal wave in the Stste of
New York this year in the way of nomi-
mating old men for Office. Both Dix
and Tiden, the rival candidates for Gov
ernor, are over 70, while Clark, the tenn
perance nominee, must be about the
same age. Judge johnson. one of the
candidates for Court of Appeals judge,
is 68. In the Syracuse Congressional
district the candidates for Congress are
both 30 old that they have been COM
pletely out of politics fol at least de-
cade of years. Should the Republicans
carry the Legislature, the probability is
that Ex-Governor Morgan. who is con
siderably on the shady side Of 60. will
be sent to the United States Senate, while
if the Democrats have control. the SEN
ator is likely to be Hon. Frank Herman.
who, if We judge from his looks and
past career. must be cider than the cen
fury. These ara but few OF the instan>
ces which we recall, but they will show
how the tide seems to be running.

the other side of the clipping contained

ANCIENT TREES IN NEVADA. - In the
bottom of the main shaft of the Virgin
ia City Coal Company. Ell Dorado canon.
Lyon County, has been encountered the
trunk of a tree four feet in. diameter. u
lone relic of an ancient and extinct for
est. Where cut through by the shaft
this old tree is found to be perfectly
carbonized--turned into coal. Outside,
the log is completely crusted over with
iron pyrites, many of which are so bright
that the crystals shine like diamonds.
These pyrites also extend into the body
of the log. filing what were apparently
once cracks OF. wind-shakes, and even
forming clusters about what was once
the heart of the tree. This relic of an
oldtime forest lies far below the two
veins of coal the company are about to
open. The finding of this old trunk is
evidence that the country was at one
time. ages and ages ago. covered by
forest of large trees; though the native
timber growth, when the country was
first visited by the whites. and as far
back as the traditions of the Indians ex-
tend, was but scubby species of nut
pine. A few miles from the shaft in
which this carbonized tree Yves found
are to be seen on the surface the petri-
fed remains of many large trees. In
the early days of Washoe. before the
prespectors had broken them up for
specimens, pieces of tree-trunks two
or three feet in diameter and twenty or
thirty feet in length were to be seen up
on the surface of the ground. However.
these trees, and even the one found in
the bottom of the shaft of the coal runs,
may have come from the foot billie of
the Sierra Nevada aMountains-m have
dritted out when seas of water every
where covered our present valleys. The
water lines visible on the hills show
that the whole country was
filled with lakes, and the petrifed trees
lying here and there on the surface of
the ground probably foated out on the
waters of the extinct lakes, and finally
sunk to the bottom in the places where
they are now found Virginia City En-
terprise.

BRING OUT THE HosE.--There was
something malicious in the smile of
Michigan avenue saloon keeper yester-
day as he dragged fifty feet of penstock
hose ont on the walk, turned on a full
head of water, ard remarked to crowd
of eight or ten boys that they could
wash the walk. He went in and shut
his door. and every boy in the crowd
jumped for that nozzle. An old gent
going by had his plug hat knocked into
the street, and when he turned to re-
monstrate, the stream hit him in the
eye, down behind the collar and on the
back. and he galloped into grocery
and wildly inquired for three barrel
shotgun and hand grenade. Each
boy declared that he was going to hold
that nozzle, and each one tried to. The
stream hit the windows, then the walk,
then a hitcbing~post, and more than
once it slid down boys back or into
his bootleg. A woman came out of a
store just in time to get dash under
the chin, and she fell over a box and
shouted murder !" in clarion tones
A girl came along with baby cart, and
as she was chewing away at a quid of
gum and gaping across the street, the
water struck the baby in his little stom-
ach and poured down over his little toes
like babbling brook rushing to the sea.
The struggle among the boys lifted the
stream to the window again, and the
girl and baby got away. A small boy
ran across the street to see what the
matter was, and he went back bowling.
his hair dripping and his ears filled full.
A barber went out to say to the boys
that he'd have 'em locked up, and the
water raked up and down him, filled up
his packets and wilted his shirt bosom.
and he jumped back into his door and
said he'd like to be Chief of Police of
Detroit for about six seconds, he would.
Some of the boys dropped out. discour-
aged at the thought of what " old man !"
would say when they got home. but
five or six held on until they had wet
up sack of coffee, q barrel of sugar.
