The conclusions from the statements above
made, which cone to the newspaper man as
we'll as the general public, must be twofold
First, that a modern miracle of healing has
been performed in our midst, and that, too, by
the simplest means, and one which is within
the reach of every one; and secondly, that testi-
monials of such high character and SO outspok-
en- III tone conclusively prove the value of the
remedy, and its superior nature to the proprie-
tary articles with which the public have been
flooded. The greater includes the less" and
the remedy which has been proven so valuable
and has saved life after it was brought down
to deaths door, must unquestionably be certain
in all minor troubles, which are so disastrous
unless taken in time.

The Power of Beard.
New Orleans Times.

Those young men, whose upper lip
bears an incipient fringe the thinness
OF which is only excelled by the charity
OF this world, should realize that their
own efforts to make maiden's heart
throb responsive to their own, will end
in embarrassing failures. They will
waste precious sheckles on various
plates OF ice cream which the gentle
maid will eat and want more, and when
he questions her to learn if the flame OF
the divine passion burns within her
heart, he will find to his dismay that
there is no light in the window for him,
and that his offerings of ice cream have
done more than partly filled void
which girls seem to have for delicacies-
void which, if it is backed by healthy
appetite cries "havoc and let slip the
ice cream freezer" Why is the young
mans fate so cruel9 For the simple rea-
son that his face is smoothe and beard
| less. 1t has not that rough, stubby and
| thorny appearance which distinguishes
besiege a girl with t1attery, bon-bOns,
vows of eternal constancy, tickets to
the matinee, bouquets and canary birds,
and yet she will hold the fort. Her
heart will travel so far away from the
young man that it would be impossible
for him to reach it with cablegram,
but when she is brought face to face
with man who has flowing black
beard, curled moustache, or a pair OF
maroon colored. ham shaped side whis-
kers, she capitulates with sigh, the
| lingering sweetness of which dies
gently away like the last faint note OF
brass iewsharp. A beard is beyond a
doubt the most effective weapon a man
has, and without which he is not likely
to capture blushing girl and enslave
her heart. A person may scan closely
the ancient dust covered tombs Of poetry
and prose, and yet gain no idea OF the
unfathonable joy that maiden expe-
riences when her lover kisses her. w her
his moustache tickles her nose, how
charmingly she exclaims, 900! 90
ouch!" and yet how much Simon-purt
bliss the dear little creature expresses
in those exclamations. When his un
shaven cheek travels over hers like
broad file she groans, but she feels nc
pain, and when he is gone away he1
heart sighs. "Oh, for rasp of tina
dear old chin!" Such is the power o
the beard.

Cotton Seed Oil.
1T is FOUND TO BE A GOOD SUBSTITUTE
FOR LARD.
New York Tribune.]


The eating world will have occasion
to throw up it's cap if the discovery
lately announced that cotton seed Oil is
ga most satisfactory substitute for
lard" be confirmed. / hope it is true,
for the sake especially Of the many
house keepers who are sorely tried IN
their cooking by that product OF the
swine, which, like butter, varies IN
quality, and whose odor, when sizzling
in the frying pan, awakens in the i'm.
aginatiye kitchen goddess visions OF
pent-up, garbage-fed and Shiny porkers,
and, mayhap, a notion or two Of trlcllnH
snugly ensconsed in the oozy vesicles.
No one is afraid Of good vegetable oil.
Its impressions are cool and historic
and agreeable. 1t whispers OF dewy
meadows, refreshing breeZes, sweet
aromas and so on. But lard! Every
thing it suggests is heating and exas-
perating. However, more to the point
Col. 0. 0. Nelson, of Huntsville, Ala,
says he has repeatedly used cotton seed
oil at his house and finds it equal to the
best article of lard. A hotel-keeper at
Memphis publishes, statemnt to the
same effect. 1t has been tried by
several citizens of Iuscum6ia, Ala,
who say that they can find no dlfference
between the oil and lard as an article
for cooking. The best thing about it.
as most economical housewives will
say, is the cost, that being now not more
than half the price Of the pork extract
And should this discovery turn out q
fact undeniable what revolution il
will produce in the pork trade! And
what an impulse it will give to the cot
ton interest, coming just in time to
speed the revival of industry and en-
terprise in the South. -,
Everybody must grease the pan-the
Ihveienist for his roll, the beef-eater fol
his steak-and all will heartily welcome
the sweet, translucent distillation OF
nature.

BIG AND SWIFT SHIPs.-The English
and French are at work upon a new
feet Of steam vessels, to ply between
this continent and the Old World:
Their popularity is their great size and
swiftness. The French vessels expect
to run from Havre or Bordeaux to New
York in less than eight days, while the
new English steam vessels, it is said,
will accomplish the task in seven days.
No matter what the wind or weather,
no day is to pass in which 400 miles are
not made. A few years ago, a ten
days trip was considered fast, but a
voyage OF less than eight days now ex-
cites but little comment. Ship builders
90 still further, and say that in ten
years time six days will be all that will
be required between New York and
Liverpool. In another respect these
new ships are notable. They are OF
immense size and tonnage. The French
vessels are Of 5000 tons, and more than
one Of the English ships is over 5000.
Travelling is pleasanter in these great
vessels than in smaller ships, as they
are not so easily affected by the winds
and the waves. But it is lamentable
fact that the United States has no YES
sells building, big or little, to contest
the supremacy OF the ocean. Somehow
or other Congress is hostile and the peo-
pie apathetic to the necessity for en-
couraging the steam marine of the Uni
ted States.-[From Demorest's Monthly
