Cherry Pectoral,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping-
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.

Among the great
discoveries of modern
science, few are of
more real value to
mankind than this eff
fectual remedy for all
. diseases of the Throat
and Lungs. A vast
trial of its virtues,
throughout this and
other countries, has
shown that it does

control them. The testimony of our best citi-
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. AS remedy,
it is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves un-
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affec-
ti0ns, which are easily met ut first, but which
become incurable, and too often FATAL if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and It
is unwise to be without it. AS safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY
PICTORIAL is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued from premature graves,
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against ord-
nary colds, securing sound and health-restoring
sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Infiu.
enZa and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection 1t may be confidently relied
upon as possessing all the virtues il has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

A Story Of Dungeon Life.

There was living in Paris, in 1871, q
Polish lady, the countess OF X. She
wore very singular brooch. Its
ground of blue enamel was circled by
twenty precious stones, and was covered
in the center by glass, and what do you
suppose this brooch contained? Not a
portrait, nor lock of hair, but four
common pins, bent together in the form
of a star. She wore these because they
were the companions of her husband
during q long imprisonment. Years
ago he was supposed to be secret enc
nv of the Russian Government, and
was put in a dark dungeon far under
the ground. He had no one to speak
to, for no one was allowed to see him
except the keeper of the prison, and he
was not permitted to talk with his
prisoner. He had nothing to do. Days,
weeks, months passed on, and he was
still in his dungeon. He was never
brought to trial, and, poor man, he WAS
most miserable. He thought he should
lose his senses, and in truth his reason
did begin to give way. Feeling all over
his coat one day he found four pins,
and he actually wept for Joy; yet what

from his coat and threw them on the
floor of his dungeon, and then he went
down on his hands and knees, and felt
over the floor till he found them. When
he had succeeded in inding them, he
scattered them on the floor again; and
could you have gone into his dungeon,
YOU would have found him cropping for
his four pins. When, after six years
Imprisonment, his cell was opened to
set him free, they found him on his
hands and knees in the dark, feeling
about the floor for his four pins. 1t
was all his work, nor would he leave
his prison without taking his pins with
him. They were his best friends, be-
cause they had given him something to
do in his solitude and confinement, and
his wife had them made into brooch,
which she valued more than gold.
They had preserved he husbands rea-

RIGID RULES IN 'FRIsCO.-Having
been regularly introduced to several
very pleasant families, and having at
tended various receptions, thought l
would pay little evening visit at very
charming house. 1 rang the bell ac-
cordiugly, and when it was answered by
the Chinese servant, handed my card.
Missus not leceiving," said the yellow
minion Missus' night Toosday; you
come Toosday." answered Indignantly:
take in my card at once" But he
reiterated stoically: mot deception
night; wait Toosday, you come," and
shut the door in my face. l thought
this was very queer proceeding, but,
as 1 was arrayed in visiting costume and
had made up my mind, as the school
girls say. for visiting, tramped on to
another house where had been pre-
sented on reception night. l rang the
bell, and q Chinese servant, another
Dromio, twin brother to the first, re-
sponded. presented my card. He took
it. "Missus not leceiving ; missus' le-
ception night Thursday come Thus
day" And he, too, shut the door in
my face. / thought to myself this thing
had gone far enough, and so l sought
comfort and instruction from the lady
who had presented me and had been my
social sponsor. :. Bless you" she said
with laugh, "you might ring the bell
in vain at every house in San Francisco,
even IL you were ~ rich as Cresus, in
stead of being . poor Newspaper scrib-
bier. These ladies only see visitors
when they receive, and you cannot get
. glimpse Of them on any other night.

The skin Of polar bear has been re-
ceived by a gentleman in this city from
a friend at Cumberland Inlet, with an
account of its capture, as follows: A
party of men from the Isabella, includ-
ing q number of Esquimaux, were walk
ing on the ice short distance from the
ship, when, rounding hummock, we
unexpectedly discovered at short dis
ing. We would have returned to the
ship without disturbing it, as we were
armed with only one rifle and few
spears carried by the natives, had not
one of our dogs that were with us an
nounced our presence by a loud bark.
The bear, as soon as it saw the intruders,
began to advance slowly toward us, but
was met by the dogs, who attacked him
vigorously, but with little effect. He
shook them off, injuring three of them
so badly that they had to be killed, and
continued to advance. We discharged
the life and then fed to the ship, where
we armed ourselves and came out to
look after the bear, who had disappeared
behind one of the numerous hummocks.
We had searched for some time,
when, as one Of the Esquimaux passed
the corner of hummOck he came face
to face with the Infatuated animal. He
gave fearful cry, just as the brute
struck him with one of his immense
paws. The rest of us heard the cry
and rapidly surrounded the boar. which
stood perfectly still over the Esquimaux.
We fired sixteen shots, twelve Of which
entered its body, before it received the
death wound. The native was insensi-
BILE when we picked him up, aud badly
torn about the shoulder by the beasts
claws, but will recover. We took the
body of the bear on q sledge to the
ship it weighed 1857 pounds, and
measured ten feet and one inch from
nose 10 tail.-Norwich Bulletin.

Fashion Notes.
Bonnets have long strings.

Bonnets have long strings.
Red yelling is worn on bonnets, but
not over the face.
Ivory combs are very much affected
by ladies with dark hair.
Fish-scale brocades and crescent suit
ings are very fashionable for polonaises.
Linden and magnolia green are two
new pale shades of this popular color.
Undress kid gloves in all the very
dark fashionable shades are shown for
demi- toilet.
Red felt Balmorals with blue founces
and blue Balmorals with red flounces
are among the novelties.
Quilted underskirts are growing in
favor. They come in dark shades OF
green, blue, gray and black.
Silks, velvet, ostrich tips and plumes.
and wide ribbons, bows and strings are
appropriate for full-dress hats only.
Muffs are of medium size this win
ter. Boas very long and round, except
seal-skin ones, which are necessarily
flat.
Imitation Turquoise ornaments set in
steel points, looking like small dla-
monds, are among the new notions in
cheap jewelry.
Celluloid coral and celluloid ivory
ornaments have almost superseded the
genuine, they are such admirable imi-
tations of the real things.
The long circular cloaks and capes
lined with fur, which came in last win
ter, are again fashionable; but only for
carriage wraps in the coolest weather.
Prudent ladies wear thin, well-fitting
white cotton or lisle-thread stockings
under all colored hosiery. Physicians
agree in declaring the danger OF wear
ing dyed stockings next to the skin.
Some of the latest importations of
Paris suits are simply long princess
polonaises. looped very low down IN the
back, and have one very deep founce
put on at the bottom in such manner
as to simulate an underskirt. Ehrich's
