DAISY DEANE.

Daisy Deano sat on one end Of the
low benches in the front row. Hel
pretty face was rather flushed, and hel
bold, black eyes had lost something OF
their brightness, for Daisy Deane had
been drunk the, night before, and had
been locked up. One of her friends
however, had secured her release for
the night under promise that she
would come to court and answer, and
in keeping her promise she had come

She sat in the front row, strangel,
subdued, and she looked upon the pro
ceedings of the court in listless way
and was apparently unconscious of thu
admiring glanccs Of the Judge.
The "drunks" and disturbances
were trottcd out and trotted in again
and still Daisy Deano looked on ant
seemed TO see nothing; until at las
an old woman was led out--a woman
with gray hair, wrinklcd face anC
hands, and shabby, but neatly patches
clothes. She advanced in q dazod way
and trembled as she stood before tn
Judge.
Daisy Dcane looked on her in tn
same absent manner she had lookc'
on all the others, but she started, he
face flushed, and she leaned forwar,
and gazed on the old woman withpain
ful intensity; then she sank back
dropped her eyes and raised her vel
but her face was still turned to th

The old woman had been arrests

This was no answer under the law
and the court, having in the one ques

Tho formal question, "What have
you to say p was put, but she made no
answer and the court passed sentence,
"Ten dollars or ton days"
The clerk held out his hand Tor the
fine, but shc turned quietly away, low
cred her veil again, and walked 10 the
dock, and when the gate was opened,
went In. Tho clerks, the Judge, and
everybody, were astonished.
She was one Of "thc batch" which

Observations on the Nature, Symptoms and
Effects Of Catarrh.
BIZ DIR. HARTLEY, 732 TENTH STREET.

Among the list of chronic diseases which
affect the human frame catarrh is the one
most prevalent, most offensive, most pro-
ductiYe of discomfort, and most liable to q
variety Of dangerous and distressing compli-
cations.
Thousands are annually FASTENED to a
premature grave from its pernicious effects,
and no doubt thousands are at this moment
slowly perishing under its fatal influence,
ignorant of the cause of their declining health.
It was, in fact, the destructive influence of this
disease and its alarming prevalence that first
attracted the writer's attention, and 1t Is with
pardonable pride that he refers to the fact of
having been the first physician who made this
disease a special study, and originated a sys-
tenn of treatment calculated to effect radical
and permanent cure.
Catarrh manifests itself by a discharge from
the head, varying in its nature in different
cases, and even in the same individual at diff
ferent times. 1t may be thin, colorless, ,acrid
fluid, or q glary, starch-like substance; gen.
orally, however, it is a thick, purulent, or
muco- -purulent matter, either greenish- yellow
or of deep green tint, occasionally streaked
or fecked with blood. So copious and offen-
siye is the discharge in many cases that the
patient feels as though the whole head was in
a state of corruption.
2t1uSA VI LnC NleShdlSO pdooSo lutO
the throat, or collects as a tough, viscid
phlegm behind and above the soft palate, in
the passage between the throat and the head,
creating a constant and almost irresistible de-
sire to obtain relief by "hawking," practice
characteristic of catarrh, aad as embarrassing
to the one affected 1t is disagreesble to those
around. Often the phlegm is so tenacious
,, that the most persistent and exhaustive efforts
fail to dislodge it until some food or stimulant
is swallowed.
Again the offensive matter deposits itself IN
the nasal cavities in the shape of dry, hard
crusts, which, in some cases, accumulates to
such an extent as to form q regular plug, OBJ
strrlctiDg breathing and producing serious dis
comfort. This condition is indicative of ulcer
alton, which in time may destroy the bony
structure of the nose, and produce its subse-
quent fatteniDg.
The breath is always tainted, and some
times is so revoltingly offensive as to render
the sufferer an object of disgust to himself as
well as to others, and cases are occasionally
met with in which the stencil is really over
powering, and sufficiently fetid to poison the
atmosphere of whole room. Thus person
affected with catarrh lives continually in an
impure atmosphere of his own surrounding,
and inhales a poisonous efluvia with every
breath.

dence, 7SS2 Tenth street, near Grant Place.

Kindergarten Normal Glass,

AS seen by our advertisements, the first lee
ture to the Kindergarten Normal Class for
mothers will be given to morrow, October 10,
2:5O O'Clock, at 7OS Eleventh street, to be con-
tinued every Tuesday and Friday for ten weeks.
Single ladies as well as married should attend
this course, which ought and will in time form
one OF the most important departments in our
best schools and colleges. For of what use are
the best schools if they do not fit their pupils
for the highest and most important duty of
life, which is to bring up children from the
very beginning to be healthy, lovable and
happy! It may seem at the time tax on a
lady's time, but consider how many hours of
tedious toll are given by loving mothers to the
more ornamental part of their chiId's ward.
robe, and remember that the three hours per
week given TO the study of this system.
amounting in the ten weeks to thirty hours
altogether, will be effective, and continue its
benefits for q lifetime, and even longer.
Mothers can teach it again to their daughters,
and the young ladies may use it with their
younger brothers and sisters, or their pephews
and nieces. There are at present but four
cities il the United States where Frgbel's
kindergarten system is taught as adapted to
the youngest children, and we advise all who
can to avail themselves of the opportunity
here offered.

Caution to the Public.

The merit and success of Benson's Cspcine
Porous Plasters are already clearly estab-
lished. This indisputable fact has brought
out number of imitators, who seek to be
benefited by imposing upon the public ar
ticles under the name of Capsicin and Capsi-
cum Plasters, as being articles similar to Ben
sons. Be not deceived. Their composition is
entirely different, and in no respect the same.
The words Capcine Will hereafter be cut in
every plaster to insure the consumer against
counterfeits or limitations. Benson's Capcine
Porous Plasters are now conceded to be the
most effective remedy ever offered to the pub
lie. They give instant relief and cure quicker
than any known plaster, liniment or compo-
sition. They cure where other porous plasters
simply relieve. They contain neither metallic
or mineral poisons. They are indorsed by
over two thousand druggists of excellent repu-
tation. Price 25 cents. Can be obtained of
any druggist. SEABURY & JOHNSON,

Policy.

Last Saturday, in the Police Court, Uriah
D. Hilton was arraigned on the charge of keep
ing place where lottery tickets are sold, con-
trary to the statutes made and provided. This
case differs somewhat from those now being
heard in the court, this being for the sale of
Kentucky State lottery tickets, instead of lot
terry policy. Officer Block, who has been,
under the direction of Lieutenant Skippon,
active in these prosecutions, gave testimony,
after which fine of $500 and thirty days in
jail was imposed, and in default of payment of
fine six months additional in jail. An appeal
taken. A similar judgment was imposed in
the case of Thos. Rutherford for keeping lot
terry policy, before the court Thursday last.
It is expected that a test case will come up
in the Criminal Court this week, which will
decide whether there is any law existing in
this District to reach and punish the policy
