How TO Get an Appetite.

To a man or woman without an appetite, "the best
the market Affords presents little attractions.
The sooner such hapless individual puts the castle
organ in condition to enjoy the edible comforts which
bountiful providence has provided, the more rea-
son there will lie to feel grateful for the suggestion
To do this invigorate the stomach with Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, which will enable that organ to di.
ges properly and, since good digestion is the parent
of appetite, give birth to desire for food at the in
tervals appointed by nature. With chronic want of
appetite are usually associated nervousness, bilious
ness and constipation, three evils which speedily
overcome by the Bitters. All persons of dyspeptic
or bilious tendency should use this healthful tonic
daily, or at least three or four times week pur-
suance of this course will soon insure and confirm a
radical change for the better in the condition of the
stomach and associate organs.

THE COAL STRIKERS.
Military Protection Required TO Prevent
Miners Being Murdered by Strikers.

SCRANTON, Oct. 12-The attempt on the
part of the Lackawanna Iron and Coal Co. to
work the Pine Brook colliery has exasperated
the strikers to a fearful pitch. About twenty
men worked in the mine today and were es-
corted to and from their houses by a strong
military guard. On quitting work they were
assailed by shouts of the mob, who assembled
in force near the coal breaker, but were kept
back by the soldiers. The colliery is strongly
guarded day and night. The men who worked
there today appealed for protection to the au-
thorities shortly after II o'clock tonight, stat.
ing that they were in fear of being murdered in
their homes before morning. Detachments
were sent to protect them and there is a strong
force of militry under arms in the city ready 10
march at moments notice. Troops have
been telegraphed for down the valley and will
arrive before morning.

AneclOte of Henry Clay.

During the compromise" discussion
Of 1850 a lady from Georgia, accompa-
MED by her husband, called on Mr.. Clay
at the National Hotel. He was ex-
tremely busy, and sent down a card
apologizing and expressing the hope that
they would call in the morning. But
the lady would not be put off SO easily.
She Immediately wrote him a beautiful
note, in a beautiful hand, in which she
said that she and her husband had come
some hundred miles out of their way to
see him, and begged the honor of brief
interview, as they were under the ne
cessitv Of leaving that evening. The
great Kentucky statesman of course
made graceful surrender.
The party were introduced, and a
pleasant conversation followed. which
Mr.. Clay himself seemed to enjoy no
less than his guest AS it was draw
ing to a close the lady remarked that
she had still another favor to ask, the
reference to which seemed to give her
some little embarrassment. "What is
it, madam, if you please?" "Sir," said
she, ''before leaving home [ told my
friends that l would not only see Mr..
Clay, but that I would be kissed by
him p "My dear madame" said he,
rising, ''as Mr.. Lowndes said of the
presidency, that is an honor neither to
be sought nor declined p and the lady's
wish was gratiied.

On Saturday morning Miss Pupke,
who is a stranger, with her father and
family, at the West End, went out bath
ing in front of the house She is an
excellent swimmer, and as usual went
out far beyond her depth. Bathing
near by at the same time was one of
the musicians of the hotel orchestra,
who is not good swimmer, and who,
being met by heavy breaker, WAS
carried far out beyond his depth, where
he struggled in vain to return He
halloed for help, and Miss Pupke's at
tention being attracted to his condition
she lost her presence of mind and came
near fainting. All eyes were turned
toward the musician, however, and he
was soon beyond danger. Miss Pupke
meanwhile had been going down and
coming up again calling all the time for
help until at last she attracted the at
tention of young .Hildreth, a boy of six
teen, and the son of one of the propri-
etors of the hotel. Taking in the posi-
ton of things at once young Hildreth
swan out to the now drowning girl,
caught her up and bore her to the
shore. Miss Pupke has been i'll since
from the excitement and fatigue, but is
not seriously injured, and young Hill
dreth, whose bravery is everywhere
commended, is to be presented with a
gold watch and chain by the guests OF
the hotel, who have made up Il sub
scription of some $3.50 for that pur-
pose.-Ne,v York Yord.
