Astonishing success.

It is the duty OF every person who has
used BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP to let its
wonderful qualities be known to their
friends in curing Consumption, severe
Coughs. Group, Asthma, Pneumonia. and in
son can use it without immediate relief.
Three doses will relieve any case. and we
consider it the duty Of all druggists to re-
commend it to the poor dying consumptive,
at least to try one bottle, as 10000 dozen
bottles were sold last year, and no one case
where it failed was reported. Such a medi-
cine as the GERMAN SYRUP cannot be too
widely known. Ask your druggists about
it. Sample bottles to try sold at 10 cents.
Regular size rs cents.

Peace, "who are your This child,

gan the sailor.
"Then keep your finger out ofthis pie,
said his honor.
"Ill pay Mr.. Grocer for his box OF
lemons, If he'll let the lad off, persisted
the sailor.
"IIoId your tongue, sir!' cried the jus
tice. "Do you make charge against this
boy. Mr.. Grocerl'
But at that moment little trembling
figure ran into the room.
The mother OF the children, who had
come earlier than usual from tho factory,
work being slack, and had heard the
awful news Of her boys arrest, and had
missed her sick girl.
Its mother" cried Kitty. ats
motherm
And il seemed to her that all must be
right now. But Tom crouched low for
shame.
He knew he was thief; and what had
his mother told him about keeping the
laws of man and God, and being honest
if ever so poor. How he must shame her !
The grocer looked at her also in COM
Function.
"The mothers dacent woman" said
he, "and pays for what she gets. A da-
cent, respectable woman"
But then and there, before the very eyes
of the whole court the decent, respect
able woman gave wild cry, and flung
her arms about the sailor, who, in his
turn, pressed her to his heart.
Tom, first amazed, next turned furious,
and doubled both his small fists.
But Kitty, with her baby -woman's in
stinctive comprehension, saw at glance
what it would have taken hours to have
explained to Tom, and cried:
''I guess it's father come back from
sea-"
She guessed right. 1t was the old story
Of desert island ana years of anxious wait
ing, and the sailor had made search for
his wife and children since his return.
And thus queerly had they all been
brought together again.
In consideration of all these circum-
stances, the grocer refused to make any
charge against Tom, and he was set free.

An Unknown Great Man.

VIM. III. Seward was first nominated
for Governor of New York in 1884. He
lived at Auburn, and number of his
fellow-townsmen, in accordance with the
old saying, "a prophet is not without
honor save in his own country" were op-
posed to the nomination. They berated
their delegation for favoring it, and the
chairman remarked, 81 never supposed
Mr.. Seward was great man, but when |
went to Utica, l found that everybody
spoke of him as the greatest man in the
State" "Well," replied the vexed citi-
zens, "the State must be in strange con-
dition if Seward is among its great men,
"Gentlemen," answered the chairman, II
have learned one thing by going to Utica;
and that is that great man never lives
at home" A great man has been found
at Erie, Pa, unknown to his townsmen.
Yale Callege conferred the degree of A.
NJ. on Artemas Martin, and the citizens
of Erie knew of no such man. A re-
porter, however, found him out, and he
is considerable of man, as the report
shows: N
Professor Artemas Martin is bach
elor, aged forty-two. His occupation is
that of market gardener, and for the last
half f-dozen years every Wednesday and
Saturday morning has found him selling
vegetables ON State Street. In his own
family he has always been called 'The
Professor" "a title he has now right to
wear), but to his neighbors he has been
known only as market gardener.
In mathematical circles, in this coun-
try and Europe, few names are better
known than that of Artemas Martin. He
is regular contributor to the Educational
Times, of London, England; to the Mes
senger of Mathematics, of Cambridge
England; to the AnaIyst, of Des MOines
Iowa, and the mathematical department
of the Yates County Chronicle, Of Penn
Yam, NY. He was editor of the mathe-
maticaI department of the SchOoLddJ
Aagasins till it's discontinuancc. He is
now editor of the department of higher
mathematics in the Normal AOnthly, pub.
lished by the we'll known mathematical
psthor, Professor Brooks, at Millersville,
Pa. Finally, he is editor and publisher
Of the Mathematical Visitor, an annual OF
which the first number was issued last
March. In his modest home was found g
comprehensive and valuable msthemati-
cal library Of several hundred volumes.
