The secret Of BusIucss success.

1t is claimed that Vanderbilt exhibited reat
nerve and shrewd business sagacity In the pur-
chase of stocks and railroads controlled by
him. Yet, whenever he made an investment
he received in return an equivalent either as
his own, or as collateral security. DIR. R. v.
Pierce has invested many hundred thousand
dollars in advertising, depending entirely upon
the superior merits of his goods for security.
The unparalleled popularity of his family
medicines, and the annual increase in their
sale attests, in arguments stronger than words,
impoverished, the liver sluggish, or there be
tumors, blotches and pimples, DR.. Pierce's

abroad. During this year he was over
Swallowed by the great sorrow Of his
life. Mrs. Bryant was taken from his
side. But under the weight of grief he
applied himself more closely, rather
than with diminished resolution, to his
literary labor, finding some measure of
solace in the constant occupation of his
thoughts. "The Iliad" was finished in
December, 1869, and "The Odyssey"
was Immediately begun. This was FIN
ished in December, 1871. His entire
period of labor on Homer, therefore,
covered about six years, and advanced
him to his 18th year. Since then he has
been engaged actively on no considera-
BILE work, though he has overlooked the
proof-sheets of Is History of the Unit
ed States" and assisted at many public
meetings of political or literary char
acter. -i -4a f4

IT seems from a paper read the other
day before the London Society of Arts
by Mr.. w. H. Preece that the flies which
are now becoming so numerous with the
increasing warmth have a speech of
their own, and are not confined to the
irritating buzz with which they have
been so long associated. This fly Ian
guage can be heard with the assistance
of the microphone, which magnifies
sound and aids the ear as the microscope
does the eye. Mr.. Preece states that
with it he has heard the tramp of lit
tie fly across q box with q tread almost
as loud as that of horse across a wood
en- bridge. "A curious sound accom-
panied the tramp,of the fly, which, it
was suggested. was caused by the neigh
ing of its proboscis.

Man Frozen to Death with the Their.
mometer at 80. s,es

Mr.. James Knox, q young man of the
eastern part of this county, says the
Meridian (Miss.) Mercury, has been
strangely afflicted for about q year.
Hot or cold, he was always affected as
freezing to death. His case has been
examined by several skillful physicians,
and, we understand, has puzzled them
all. He was continually using all the
devices to warm himself that man
might who had been chilled by ex-
posure to extreme cold, sitting around
rousing fires enveloped in blankets, and
the house closely shut up, and this
1t is said that he would sit by the fire
and hold his head down to it and almost
roast it in the effort to warm. 1t is a
fact that he put cloths on his head to pro-
tect the scalp from actual burning while
doing this, and the cloths have actually
been set on fire by the heat he subjected
them to in endeayoring to warm his
head. Some time ago he made visit
to Livings ton, in the hope of being bene-
fitted by the artesian water, when DR..
Webb, of that town, saw his case.
Lately he had determined to return to
Livingston and try again the waters,
and again consulted DR.. Webb, going to
his Office for that purpose. He seemed
as one suffering with extreme cold, and
asked DR.. Webb if he had any fire in his
Office. He told him that he did not,
and that it was too hot to have fire and
be comfortable. He said he could not
stand it, and ran out of the office into
the street for the benefit of the sunshine
to warm himself. The next day DIR.
Webb had him in his Office again to
make more critical examination of his
case, and had him rousing fire. He
carefully tested with a thermometer the
degree of animal heat he carried, and
found it near normal. With all of this
trouble he lost little flesh, and kept a
good appetite for food, and preserved
rather a healthful look. On Friday he
started home again in a wagon, with q
Mr.. Meadows driving it. He had not
gone far out of Livingston before he
wanted to return, complaining that he
was freezing to death, and wanted to
get somewhere to warm. Meadows in
sisted on continuing the journey on
home, and drove forward, Knox jump
ed out of the wagon and ran off into the
woods. Meadows pursued him and com.
PEELED him to return and get into the
wagon again, and drove on. He got as
far as Mrs. Peteet's-Green Grants old
place--with him. Mrs. Peteet had OBJ
served Meadows driving slowly along
the road, and knowing he had gone to
fetch the sick man home, went out to
the gate to make inquiry. When Mead
ows drove up and stopped, to her in
qsiry he said he believed Jim Knox was
dying. He was lying stretched help
less in the bottom of the wagon, and
after it had stopped only gasped a few
times and died, apparently freezing to
death last Friday, with the thermometer
at near 80.

There was laugh at this, and Edison
announced from the other end of the
stoop that he had found them. We
moved 20 feet, and their white flag was
just visible through the distant trees.
Solicitations were exchanged over the
two miles of intervening ground, and an
opportunity was furnished to all present
to hea: the wonderful phenomena.
This ear-trumpet or telescope
phon," as it is called, is internally Gu
rious combination of tunnels centering
in a chamber and radiated by wires.
Mr.. Edison before Christmas hopes to
complete for the use of partially deaf
people small, but somewhat complex
instrument, which, when connected
with a thin wire to the ear, will enable
any one to hear every whisper on the
stage of the largest theater.
The Graphic asked permission to
describe and sketch the ear trumpet for
the Graphic; but was refused permits
sion at present on account of some de-
lay of the patents. But the country and
the world may be assured that our
sketch does not in any way exaggerate
the merits of this latest invention of this
marvellous mana device which seems
likely to make the deaf hear, and which
will certainly open new methods of COM
to supplant the telegraph
and telephone.

in his practice as lawyer in the courts
of the country, and promised to attain
a high position. But IN 1925 he was in
duced to remove to the City of New
York, where he edited the New York
Reuieso for one year, and became COIL

in which he still remained, the patri-

his death.
The occasion of his 8Oth birthday,
which was celebrated in 1874, and the
mi-centennial of his connection with
the Post, two years later, were notable
events in his long and illustrious life.
During all this time Mr.. Bryant had
been in the living world. He repeatedly
visited Europe, even extending his
travels to Syria and Egypt, remaining
for considerable periods Of time at the
more important points, and studying
men, manners, and the language and lit
erature of the different countries. In
his own country, too, he travelled widely
and observed with q careful eye. His

A SINGULAR story is told of deserted
house near Haverhill, Mass. Twelve
years ago an energetic young mechanic
was engaged 70 marry young woman
of that city, and worked hard to lay up
money to buy a home to which to take
his bride. One morning he invited her
to drive, took her to handsome and
well furnished residence in the suburbs,
showed her through the rooms, and told
her it belonged to him. To her inquiry
how he obtained it he finally admitted
it was purchased with part of go, 600
which he had drawn in lottery. Being
a girl of strict principles, she declared
she would never marry him until he
gave back the money, and on his refcs-
ing, left him forever, and the house still
stands tenantless.
