RUPTURE---HOW CURED


MR.. GEORGE E. EAKINGs, OF PHILADELPHIA,
WRITES THE FOLLOWING INTERESTING PAR
TICULARs:

SIR-F0r several years l was afflicted with
rupture and suffered from the use Of trusses
Casually noticing in YOU, paper a recommend
ation OF DIR. Sherman OF your city, and about
the same time meeting Mr.. J. W. Ayres, Of
Camden, N. j., who informed that he had been
victim to rupture and was cured by DR.. Sher-
mans treatment l felt animated a1d went
straightway to New York, consulted DR.. Sher-
man, and had him adapt his remedies to my
case 1t was to me a happy occurrence, and
shall ever feel grateful to Won and Mr. Ayres
for having directed my attention to DR.. Sher-
man, as well as to MIN for the safe and COM
Portable manner in which he treated my case.
My mind was greatly oppressed, and my future
was shadowed, as was trying various trusses
for help with no other result than vexation and
injury. But now being sound again, and real
izing its felicity, feel it my imperative duty
to add my testimony in favor of Dr. Sherman's
remedies, and to recommend the ruptured to 20
to him with the fullest confidence Of being BEN
efted. -

Writers and Talkers.

The Baltimore American says: We
are apt to imagine that good writer's are
fluent conversationalists; but this is not
always the case. There WAS DR.. Blair,
whose mind was so chained to his pen
lbat he was called "Dr. Speaknone."
Scott was most genial in conversation,
aud the pleasant description Of the au-
thor reading his poems and novels to his
family, and their atfectiOpate sympathy,
is truly delightful. Dickens, too, WAS
gifted in speech as well as pen, and,
perhaps, had he enlivened the home
circle with his genius, his married
life might have been happier. Cole
ridge and Wordsworth were both
great talkers, and, though they pro,
lessed TO delight In each others SO,
ciety, they always avoided meeting, be-
cause neither liked to listen. Con-
temporary with them was Mr.. TalfOurd,
OF whom Miss Milford says: "His con-
versation 10 SO glittering, SO dazzling,
that listening to him is like looking at
the sun; 1t makes ones mind ache with
excessive brilliancy." But he did not
possess the secret of pleasant converse
lion, for his talk was more like harangue.
Humorous and witty people are always
delightful company, but those who use
sarcasm are seldom popular. Some
writer says of sareasm: sit is an easy
talent, for the worst wine makes capital
vinegar" Poor Goldsmith was often the
target for the sarcastic wit Of his friends.
He once said to Beauclerk, 81 am de-
termined to leave OIL prescribing for
friends" "Do so, dear Doctor; when
ever you undertake to kill, let 1t be your
enemies" was the reply.

When Men are at Their Best.

DR.. Beard states that from an analysis
of the lives OF Il thousand representa-
tive men in all the great branches of hu-
man effort, he made the discovery that
the golden decade was between thirty
and forty, the silver, forty and fifty, the
brazen between twenty and thirty, the
iron between nifty ana sixty. The su-
perioriJy of youth and middle life over
old age in original work appears all the
greater, when we consider the fact that
all the POSITIONS OF honor and profit and
pres -protessorsaips and public sta
tions--are in the hands Of the old. Rep
utation, like money and position, is
mainly confined to the old. Men are not
widely known until long after they have
done the work that gives them their
tame. Portraits OF great men are de-
lusion, statues are lies. They are taken
when men have become famous, which,
on the average, is a. least twenty five
years after they did the work which
gave them their fame. Original work re-
quires enthusiasm. II all the original
work done by men unaer torty-hye were
annIhlated, they would be reduced to
barbarism. Men are ut their best at that
time when enthusiasm and experience
are most evenly balanced; this period
on the average is from thirty-eight to
lorty. After this the law is that exper-
ience increases but enthusiasm de-
creases. In the life Of almost every old
man there comes u point, sooner or later,
when experience ceases to have any ed
ucating power.

The CarIistr.,

News from Madrid must generally be
taken with "a grain of salt" but there is
no reason to doubt that the prospects of
the Carlist cause are well nigh as
gloomy as they are painted by the ene-
mics Of. Carlism. Dorregaray is in full
retreat before The forces OF the Madrid
government, his own bands reduced to q
mere handful. Catalonia Is on the point
of being pacified, and the government
has resolved to make serious effort to
capture Estella. History is repeating it.
self. The hardy mountaineers of the
lour northern provinces have exhausted
themselves in the effort to impose their
will on Spain, and now the mon 9 mt has
come when they must abondon tue fight
or be exterminated. In continuing a
hopeless struggle Don Carlos displays
selishness and Indifference to the we'll
being Of his friends that ought to disgust
them with ''diyine right OF kings and
no doubt would, were it not for the re-
ligious tanaticism which is the prop Of
the Carlist cause.--N. Y. Herald.

English Railway Cas-.

Since the Baker trial Englishmen have
begun to wonder whether 1t isn't about
time Tor England to adopt the American
sys tenn OF cars, whereby such crimes are
impossible. European railway carriages
are the stupidest, most uncomfortable
and most inconve nient OF conceivable
conveyances. You can be burned up,
murdered, robbed, assaulted, with per-
feet ease. You are stifed in summer
and frozen to death In winter. There
are no retiring rooms, and every train is
detained at some way-station in order
that the tickets may be collected. Then
you can't read with any comfort, because
the carriages, being short and light jump
about as though afi cted with st. Vitus'
dance. A chronic growl possesses the
American traveller the moment he sees
an English railway carriage, and II Col.
Bakers conduct helps to open British
eyes to the ne cessity ofa radical change,
his exposure will become cause Of ma
tional thank sgiving.

Stock Pays All the Time.

The heading of this article, says.the
Valley Farmer, was the remark oil an old
farmer The other day while aeploring the
failure of the wheat crop. "One year the
wheat fails, another year the oats fail,
another year the corn;" but, says he,
s.stock pays all the time." He moreover,
remarked, that TIE farmers who early
gave their attention to stock raising, had
gone right along without set-backs and
outstripred the grain growers. There is,
no doubL, much truth in the old mans
remarks. Stock is the surest and most
remunerative. But in thickly settled re-
gions it is better and safer 10 divide the
interest between the two.

Why IL Has Rained.

Recently arrived steamers, says the
New York Herald, report that the At.
lantic is full OF ice, and this explains
the mystery Of the incessant rains from
which the Eastern seaboard, and indeed
the whole country, Las been suffering
more weeks than it is pleasant to think
OF. 1t is probable that there has been
a mild winter and early spring in the
Arctic regions. This has caused open
waters, which have borne into the At
lanuc an uncommon quantity of ice.
This great mass of ice, drifting into low
er latitudes, is rapidly melting, and the
yapors arising from it are drawn to the
land and yield us the too abundant
rain storms which have caused floods
and more or less injury to crops. The
land gathering more heat than the
ocean, and giving it out also more freely,
heats and rarltes the air upon it, and
the vapors arising from the melted ice
rush in to I'LL up the vacuum thus con.
stantly created by the summer heat.

The Irish peasantry have tales OF a
parabolic character-StOrles which, by
means of some striking action or cir
cumstance, set forth u hearty moral. On
hearing such, their usual phrase is,
s.Oeh, it is mighty improviH." And that,
too, is what Molly Malone, Il worthy
washerwoman, used 10 say-and say
almost inyariably-after bearing SER
mon on Sunday. Ohe day, however, her
clergyman, who was not quite content
with this generality, spoke to her re-
specting his discourse, and Molly sud-
denly became what they call in Ireland
u little bothered. Nevertheless, she got
out of her difficulty with one OF those
paraboIic answers which are such favor
ties with her class, and which, while it
completely evaded the question, satis-
iactoriiy replied to it.
mda Res;mWsll,, van ssi, Molly, you liked the SER
Aol.-Oa, yes, your riverence-it was
mighty imprOvin'.
Rev.-And what part of it did you like
best?
Aor.-Well, sure, sir, liked every
part.
Rey.-But suppose there was some
portions OF it that you were more struck
with tnan you were with othersp
Mol.-In troth, plase your reverence, l
don I remember any part exactly, but
altogether twas mighty improyin'.
Rey.--Now, Molly, how could it be inn
proving il you don't remember any part
of itf
Mol.-Well, your riverence sees that
linen pve been washing aud dhrying on
the hedge there?
Rev.-Oh, certainly.
Mol-Wasn't it the soap and wather
made the linen clsfhe, sir?
Rey.-0f course they did.
Mol. And isn't the linen all the better
for it?
Rey.-Oh, no doubt Of that, Molly.
Mol.-But not dhrop of the soap aud
wather stays in IL. Well, sir, it's the
same thing wild me. Not word o. the
sarmint stays in mel suppose it all
dhries out o. me-but Pm the better and
the cianer for 1t, when it's over, for all
that.-Memoirs Of Samuel Lover.
