TO CRAFTY HIS WIFE.
An Interesting Story-A Hopeless
Case Cured, A Good Reason
for Happiness.

Statement of Mr. Washington Monroe. of Catskfl,
Green County. New YORK.
sFor many years 1 had suffered from
a complaint which the physicians called
Gravel. I had employed some of the
most noted doctors without obtaining
any permanent relief, and for long
time my case was regarded as hopeless.
All who knew the circumstances said /
must die. Finally, my wife induced
me to try n bottle of DIR. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy which she had
somewhere heard of or seen advertised
Without the slightest faith in it, but
solely to crafty her, bought bottle
of q druggist in our village. / used
that and two or three bottles more, and
to make long story short-l am now
as healthy man as there is in the
country. r
Since then 1 have recommended
sFavorite Remedy, to others whom i
knew to be suffering from Kidney and
Liver complaints; and assure the pub
lie that the Favorite Remedy has
done It's work with similar complete
ness In every single instance, and /
trust some other sick and discouraged
mortal may hear of it and try the Fav-
OF lie Remedy as / did," 13-4

English the Telephone Tongue.

Although the English language is the
most absurdly spelt tongue in the world,
it permits much more terse composition
than any other, and telegraphic clerks
have specially noted that English telei
grams, as q rule, contain fewer words
than those expressing the same ideas in
any other language. / was reminded
of this subject the other day by noticing
the directions for an electric bell in my
room in a foreign hotel. They were
printed in French, German and English,
viz: 49,
"on est prie de pousser lie bouton
jusqu' au fond"
"Man ist gebeten den Knopf so viel
as moglick zuruckzustossen."
"Please press the button to the bot
tom.n
There are ten words each in the
French and Germen to seven in the
English. The number of letters is thirty
seven, fifty-two and thirty -one respect
lively. The note at the foot of the bill
of fare was similarly interesting:
son remet la note chaque jour au
controle voyageurs. /"
!" Um Irrungen zu vermeiden, wird
taglich die Rechnung, zur Controle vor-
gelegt."
"Bills are given daily, to avoid er-
rors."
Here again we have ten, eleven and
seven words with forty-five, sixty-three
and thirty-one letters, respectively. An
other common "notice affords cor
roborating evidence of the preceding
examples of superior terseness of our
vernacular:
.ss On est pre- de ne pas fumer."
"Es wird gebeten NIGHT zu rauchen.n
"Please do not smoke"
Here we have seven and six words to

The following statement of William j.

remarkable that we beg to ask for 1t the
atteasion of our readers. He says: "In

lent Lleeding of the e-lungs followed by a

psise aud gratification, / commenced to

and be convinced that Consumption can
be Cured. 1 have taken two bottles
and can positively say that il has done
more good than all the other medicines
Il have taken since my sickness. My
cough has almost entirely disappeared
and shall soon be able to go to work.

.s coppery taste'' in the mouth. Tho
ususl antidotes are warm water to pro-
raote vomiting, white of eggs. strong
tea pr itannin solutions, and weak solu-
tions of protosulphate of iron or potas-
siurh ferro-cyanide in water.
Salts or preparations containing
mercury in any form-corrosive sub
Innate, white precipitate, black oxide,

ointments, etc.-are extremely poison
ous A few minutes after swallowing
any of these "coppery' taste is OBJ
served, followed by sense of constric-
tioh in the throat and irritation of the
thrpat and stomach. Nausea and vom-
iti1g soon occur. the vomited matter
consisting of coagulated mucus and
blood. Diarrhea follows, and The face OF
the patient becomes swollen and alter

comes small and irregular, the skin clam

treme cases the interior of the lips be-
come swollen, and the tongue white and
shfiveled- The case frequently term

general insensibility. Egg albumen al

the irritation and produce vomiting is
the usual antidote. Milk and gluten or
flour is also recommended. Active eff
tofts should at once be made to effect
the entire expulsion of the contents of
the stomach. The stomach pump cam
not be used.
The operation of such narcotic poi
sons as opium and prussic acid or prus-
late of potash (hydrocyanic acid or po-
tassium cyanide) is confined chiefly to
the spinal marrow and brain.
The effects of hydrocyanic acid land
potassium or other similar cyanide) are
almost instantaneous; it Is very rarely
the case that they arg delayed more
than two or three minutes. On the
other hand, cases of fatal poisoning by
opium do not terminate earlier than
from six to twelve hours.
In cases of poisoning by cyanides
emetics and the stomach pump are at
once called into requisition. Freshly
preeipitated hydro-iron oxide, if admin
istered Immediately. is perhaps one of
the best antidotes. Chlorine water in
jected into the stomach is also recon-
mended.
Nitrate of silver yields with solution

These are only few of the long list
OF active poisons, but they include those
which are in nine cases out of ten re-
sponsible for the fearful record of poi
