"Well, I'll show you. Sit down here,

He stepped into the hall and knocked
on the door, and, as the boy cried "Coma

nous wealth can be formed from the fol-
lowing calculation that has been made
Estimating it at $500, 000, 900, to count ii
at the rate of 50 each second and ten
hours day, it would take eleven years,
Isl days, five hours and forty minutes
In gold it would weigh 7S1 tons and 500
pounds, requiring train Of seventy-nine
cars of ten tons capacity to move it in
silver, 10,7l4 tons and 571 pounds, re-
quiring 1912 cars for its transportation.
In 81 bills, lying lengthwise in a contin-
uous line, it would reach ,34,9l9 miles,
162 rods and seven feet, or entirely around
the globe and along its diameter, with
1919 miles, 1872 rods and seven feet to
spare, or more than one-seventh of
the distance from our planet to the
moon. If laid "widthwise," the
81 bill would reach Il, 500 miles, 15l
rods and eight feet; or from New York
city to more than thirty miles beyond
Cheyenne, added to half the circum-
ference of the globe. In 81 bills it
would spread carpet 103 feet and
three inches wide and eighty-six miles
long; a carriage drive four feet and
eleven inches wide and over 1906 miles
long; or a comfortable promenade two
feet and five and one-half inches wide.

Collie in horses is the result of so
many different conditions that it is
impossible to treat all in a short
newspaper article. The most COM
mon cases are: indigestion, with or
without bloating; excessive and ir-
regular contraction of the bowels as
the result of a drink of ice-cold
water Immediately after a full feed
of gram; on excessive feed of grain /;
disturbance of the digestion by
musIy grain or hay, or by the pres
ence of worms in the bowels or blood
vessels. Again, sudden change of
diet, or the use of a hard, fibrous,
indigestible food may cause cOlicky
pains. If mustY, fibrous, or other
hurtful food is continuously given,
then collie is likely TO continue
as daily or frequent occur
renee. The same persistence is no.
ticed i'll cases due 10 worms, and
when hard, f9culent or phosphate
connections have formed in stomach
or bowels. In most of these condi-
tiOns the family diet must be first
corrected, and the irritant agents re-
moved from the bowels. A dose of
five drachms of Cape aloes and one
drachm powdered gentian root may
be trusted 10 effect this. The patient
should be fed bran mashes, and al
lowed only water with the chill of
until the bowels have ceased scour-
ing. If the pain is very severe, two
drachms extract of belladonna and
halt an ounce ground ginger may be
added to the above dose. In
cases in which there Is no
manifest cause for indigestion,
but where collie has supervened OH a
draught of ice water, the belladonna
ana ginger should be given promptly
in pint or quart of warm Cruel.
When worms are seen to pass with
the dung, give daily, for six days
after the physic, one drachm each OF
tartar emetic and copperas, and fol-
low on the seventh day with a
second dose of alOes. When recur-
ring collie is due to solid concretlons
in the bowels, fatal result is likely
to follow sooner or later, though il
the cOncretions are small they may
be got rid of under the influence OF
laxative diet and the use of bella
donna or other anti-spasmodics
when spasms come on.

GRIEVOUS BURDENS.

More than one hundred millions
of dollars over aud above what is
required for the ordinary expenses
of government now flow into the
treasury each year. The duty OF
congress obviously was to cut down
this excessive burden upon the peo-
pie. Yet the ruling party proposes
to do nothing of the kind. This
brings out in bold relief the plank
in the Democratic platform which
declares for ga tariff for revenue
only" What else ought a tariff to
be framed for? II incidental pro-
lection is afforded by a revenue
tariff, that is one matter; but a
tariff that yields one hundred mil
lions year more than is required is
quite another. 1t is a fraud upon
the people, for the benefit of a few
wealthy manufacturers. 1t makes the
poor poorer and the rich richer. Ii
Expresses all save Few favored III
dividuals. IL taxes excessively all
that is good to eat, see and wear. 1t
makes the tiller of the soil pay an in
ordinately high price for everything
he must buy, and it gives him abso-
lutely nothing in return. In every
blanket that is bought to protect a
family from the cold there is sixty
per cent of the tariff and forty per
cent of wool and labor, and so on
through almost every article OF
daily use. Besides, the vast revenue
raised in this way is u temptation
to iobbery. Every congressman at
tempts to raid upon it. 1t is a fright
full burden upon every taxpayer.

An Arkansas snake Charmer.


Mr.. Black, who resides in Hills
boro. Arkansas, exhibits a control
and influence over the reptile family
astonishiIgly mysterious. In the
woods, creeks, or wherever he finds
a snake, it matters not of what type,
of deadly poison or venom it may
be, he succeeds in capturing it alive
and suffering as little from the clasp
of Its fangs as if it were an ordinary
pin scratch. He handles and fondles
them about his person with as much
indifference as if they were so many
harmless toys. He will allow the
largest rattlesnake to deliberately
strike and bury Its fangs into his
flesh, and apparently suffer no in
convenience or serious consequences
from the tragic risk. BY a certain
weed or growth of vegetation he
claims to destroy the effect of the
bite. When bitten he chews and
swallows the juice of the weed,
which acts like charm.

A NIiser,s Money.

In Shamakin street, Philadelphia,
VIM. Jenklnson, an old man, without
any visible means ofsupport, lived a
lonely life for several years. His
leisure time was spent in the Guar
antee Trust and Safe Deposit COM
pany's building. Three weeks ago
Jeukinson was taken ill, and at his
request he was conveyed TO the
Jefferson College hospital for treat
ment. a few days later he dispatch
ed messenger to the office of the
Guarantee Trust for one of the
officers to visit the hospital and draw
up his will, but by the time of the
latter's arrival the old man had
grown much worse, and con-
tinued so until he expired on the
ninth instant, without the will being
made. 1t was then revealed that
Jenkinson had little fortune locked
in n box i'll the vault of the Guaran-
tee Trust, which company was APP
pointed administrator, and the re-
mains properly inferred. During
his sickness Jenkinson talked of a
wife and two children and of sister
in Iowa, to whom it is supposed he
intended TO leave his money. The
contents of the box in the company's
vault are valued at $25, 900, and con-
sists principally of Schuylkill Navi-
CATION company bonds.
The deceased is said to have been
engaged years ago in a manufacture
ing business in the Chester valley,
and diligent search is being made to
discover the whereabouts OF his rila-
tiVes.

STUFF CIGARETTES ARE MADE
What Becomes of the Cigar Butts
Gathered i'm the Streets.
1Times. PHILADELPHIA

''Nica lota grassa-hOpp," said Guissep-
pa Rocco in half tone of inquiry, while
his soft Italian eyes took in the CARLOAD
of old cigar stumps that were toasting in
the sun in the rear of No. SIG Carpenter
street on Saturday afternoon. In the
great pile of filthy, nicotine-soaked
stumps were the remnants of Henry
ClSys and Wheeling stogies, re-
duced to a common level, as the
"grasshopper" hunter receives no more
for a bushel gathered from the sweepings
of fashionable hotel than the does for
the same quantity lifted from the gutter
ooZe of the slums.
"Where did you get them asked the
reporter.
"Everybod linda de stump; everybod
sella de stump everybod getta de mon. "
Exhausted by this dialectic explanation,
Mr.. Rocco showed his teeth in a smile
and lazily scratched his back against the
jump of the door. There were about ten
bushels of the stumps laid out to dry and
twice that quantity of cured butts were
seen in third-story room.
Rocco is one of half a dozen of
Italians, on Carpenter and Christian
streets, who make business of buying
cigar stumps from the horde of youthful
scavengeIs who live in the Italian quar-
ter of this city. An active boy or girl
will collect half bushel of the stumps
in an hour or so, the work being done
between daylight and eight o'clock, and
between those hours all the principal
streets in the heart of the city are
cleaned. The children receive no fixed
price for the stumps, but ten or fifteen
cents a pailful is usually paid. The
buyers, men like Rocco, wash the fill
thiest stumps and spread them out to
dry. A day or so later they
are crumbled into shreds and al
lowed to dry twenty-four hours longer
before being packed in flour barrels
and shipped to New York. A barrel of
this stump tobacco is worth two dollars
and half, but few years ago, when
there was a strong demand for it in Phil
adelphia, the italian dryers received a
trifie more for it. The stumps were
made into snuff in Philadelphia, but
when johnson & Carlin's factory on
Third street, above Arch, was destroyed
by fire in 1878 the local demand ceased
This filthy grade of tobacco Is now
bought by manufacturers of cigarettes
and tine-cut chewing tobacco. A whole
sale tobacconist of many years experience
declares that when the stump tobacco is
ground, bleached, favored and made up
in cigarette paper no one but an expert
can detect the difference between it and
new leaf.
