A Joke Struggled I'm.
From the Chicago Times.

From the Chicago Times.
Although there is little margin for
humOr in the dry details of the customs
business, nevertheless an occasional prac-
teal joke is perpetrated, and then it is
all the more enjoyed because of the nov
city of the thing. One has recently came
to light, which, for downright richness,
may challenge the public service of this.
or any other country for fellow. 1t
seems that sometime after his Inaugural
ton, Mr.. Hayes appointed a Florida man
named Vance. special inspector of the
Treasury Department. Whether the APP
pOintment was intended as reward for
services of a political nature rendered
during the days when the occupancy OF
the Presidential chair depended upon the
electoral vote of the alligator stale, or
was male from high sense OF the fitness
of things, and under the inspiration OF
civil service reform, is of little cOnse-
quence i'm this connection. Vance got
his commission. and was jerked out of
the steaming everglades last fall, and
sent on tour OF inspection through the
irigid northern regions. He had special
Instructions to- visit the Marquette dis
trict, OH Lake Superior. and overhaul the
lector sthere. Now Vance is not fami-
liar with all the details of the customs
business, like all new converts, is exceed
ingly Jealous. and has way OF making
himself numerous" that is not agreeable
TO the old officers OF the Service. 10
quote the expression of ore OF them, she
is to ID unanimous" In due time
Vance reached Marquette, and shyer-
4, IL I'll
Osborne. The official was not long in
taking his measure. aud resolved 10 teach
him Il practical lesson. strictly Within the
limits of his official duty. Accordingly
he told VaTce that it had come to his
knowledge that smuggling WIS being
carried on TO an alarming extent at Isle
Royal, mineral knob that lifts itself in
TIE northern central portion of Lake STU
periOr, about a hundred miles from any
where, and intimated that he might make
his everlasting reputation by proceeding
tnither, ierreting them out, and bringing
the perpetrators TO punishment. Vance
was captivated with the idea, and readily
consented TO become hero. He took
the first boat for the island, and it will
be gratifying TO his friends TO know that
he landed i'll safety.
Now it so happened that the boat on
which Vance was an eager passenger
was
THE LAST BOAT OF THE SEASON
TO make Il trip TO this little chunk OF
land IN tue watery waste, and the next
trip will be made about the first of next
June. Vance has already been i'll exile
owe. two months, and he still has tour
months OF isolation aud reflection before
him. There are few Cornish miners
and Indians OH the Island and that Is all.
There are no newspapers, no telegraph
offices, no churches, no schools, no COM
muliicatiOn with the outside world, and,
worse OF all, no whiskey. Ii Vance lives
through his Information of more than
half year, and returns with his origin
al enthusiasm to the serVic,, he will be
voted a veteran.

The Largest Be,I in the World.

At the temple of Ularo, in KyOto.
Japan, is seen the largest bell i'll the
world, hanging in "a tower Oh the hill,
and is in as perfect tone as the day it
Was suspended. By measurement it ex-
ceeds the great bells at Pekin, China, anu
at Russia, both OF which are said to be
cracked. Where the bell was cast, and
by whom, is lost in the shades Oh anti
quiIy. Chinese and SanscriJ characters
cover the entire surface of the bell, but
no modern japanese priest or scholar
can translate them. This bell is "a feet
in height and l6 inches thick at the rim,
aDd when the priest sounds it TAT o.
clock every EVENING" its majestic boom,
boom, is heard many miles down the val
ley. None Of the bells in Japan have
''cIappers," but are sounded by suspend
ing levers OF woods. used like a gathering
ram, aud striking the bell on the out
side.

1t is now an acknowledged fact that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. Ii has
been cured in u very great number OF
cases (some OF them apparently desperate
ones) by Sohenck's Pulmonic Syrup
alone. and in others by the same medi-
cine in connection with Schenck's Sea
Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one or
both, according 10 the requirements OF
the case.
The old supposition that 'COnsump-
ton is incurable" for many years de-
TERED Physicians from attempting to
find remedy for that disease, anu pa
tents afflicted with it reconciled them
selves TO death without an fort being
matte to save them from doom which
was considered inevitable.
DR.. Schenck himself was supposed at
one time to be at the very gate or death,
his physicians having pronounced his
case hopeless and abandoned him TO his
fate: lie was CURED by the aforesaid
medicines, and atterward enjoyed unin-
terrupted good health for more than
forty years. Thousands OF people have
used DR.. Schenck's preparations with
the same remarkable success.
Schenck'S Almanac, containing a
thorough treatise on Consumption, Liver
Complaint, Dyspepsia. &C., can be had
gratis OF any druggist, or OF j. Ill.

reciions for the use of Schencks melii-
cines accompany each package.

They made little crown In heaven
When she Was born
Only the breath If angels on it;
Neither flower or Leaf upon 1t;
Never . single thorn.
Slowly It grew in form and beauty
As the days pa-sed on
Hinged her eyes with love-tight's dawning:
Ruby lips to lpve-words forming,
Lisping future song.
Brighter still the crown was budding
As the year grew old;
And my simple heart beguiling,
Angels showed II to me smiling;
AS The dsys grew cold.
