Rescued from Death.

William Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass, says: In the fall of 1876 I was taken with bleeding of the lungs followed by severe cough. lost my appetite and flesh, and was confined to my bed. In 1877 I was admitted to the hospital. The doctors said had hole in my lung as big as half dollar. At one time re- port went around that I was dead. gave up hope, but a friend told me of DR. WILLIAM HALL's BALsAM FOR THE LUNGS. I got bottle, when to my surprise, commenced to feel better, and to-day feel better than for three years past.
 Il write this hoping every one afflicted with diseased lungs will take DR. WILLIAM HALL'L BALsAM, and be convinced that CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. l can posi- lively say it has done more good than all the other medicines 1 have taken since my sickness.

In Haste.

A comical case of jumping at conclu- sionS-and of the consequences thereof is given by the Galveston NeUS. The editor says that Thomas McWhirter, of San Antonio, owned goat. One eve ming Mir. McWhirter was out in the yard feeding his COW. He had taken off his coat and laid it on the fence.
 In the pocket of the coat he supposed, was a morocco pocket book containing government bonds to the amount of two thousand dollars.
 When he had attended to the wants of the COW, and turned to get his coat, he found that garment lying in the mud.
 The goat had pulled it off the fence, and now stood balancing himself on the roof of the chicken coop. As he came within the range of Mir. McWhirter's vision, and of a rock that the old man threw at him, he was in the act of mas ticating what seemed to be the remnant of red morocco pocket book. Mir. McWhirtcr concluded at once that it was his pocket book, and that it contain ed his two thousand dollars.
 As the awful disasterous character of the misfortune dawned on Mir. McWh Whir- ter, and he fully realized that his two thousand dollars were filed away in the digestive machinery of four-dOllar goat, he gave vent to his feelings in a we'll that sounded like the wall of pair of bagpipes leading funeral procession.
 With dismay in every feature and a three-tined hay fork in his hand, he gave bound and went at full speed for 1 the goat.
 The goat decided not to wait for him, i but ran down the street, the irascible old man. coatlesS and hatless, in full cry 1 in his wake.
 As the two came tearing along, the goat beating derisive defiance, and McWhirter waving the hay fork and calling on the paSserS by to ''head of | that E., GOO bond" pedestrians crawled up on fences, and hack drivers drove into alleys until the procession passed.
 Over shrubbery in front gardens, and out through yard gates. the two kept on in their mad career. until at last the goat was corralled in stable. A butcher was sent for, and under in- structions from Mir. McWhirter, killed the goat. Inside was found an assort- ment of clothes pins, manila paper and hay, but there was no trace of the United States bonds.
 McWhirter tried to speak emphatical He directed the butcher to give the re mains to the poor, and went home in : hack. to find his pocket book and tho bonds in the pocket of another coa where he had left them.

''De man who expects leas' of de world am de man who has de fewest complaints" said the old man as the sound of rattling hoofs died away in the hall. De man who imagines dat friendship will borry money at de bank am doomed to disappointment My friend may lend me his shovel, but he expects me to return his hoe in good condishun. He may inquar arter my wife's health. but it doan' foller dat I kin turn my chickens into his garden. If am sick doan' expect de world to stop mOvin' right long. If my nex' dOah nabur whispers to my wife dat he am willin to sot up wid my corpse he am doin' his full duty. If am in want dat's muffin to de people who have plen- ty. If am in trouble, dat's muffin to people who have sunthin' to rejoice ober. De world owes me only what can airn. It owes me room to pass to and fro, space fur Il grave. an sich a funeral as de ole woman kin pay fur an keep de bin full O 'taters. De worltr s friendship reduces man to rags AS often as it warns his heart. De world s charity excuses the crime of hoss-thief an am horror-stricken ober de stealth of loaf of bread by an orphan: De world promises eberythin' an performs only what am convenient
 De man who relies on de honesty of de public instead of de vigilance of a watchdog, will have no harvest apples for sale. De man who pauses at each stage of his career fur de world to ap- plaud or condemn, will become foot ball fur all men to kick. Expect nc friendship to las beyond the moment when you want help. Expect no sym. pathy 10 endure longer dan it takes ful tear to dry. Expect no praise from men in de same trade. We will now conlinuate towards de usual programme of business. ."-DctroH Free Press.

Rensrkublc Escape.

John Kuhn, of Lafayette, Ind, had n very narrow escape from death. This is his own story; ''One year ago l was in the last stages of consumption. Onr best physicians gave my case up. l finally got so low that our doctor said l could not live twenty-four hours. My friends then purchased bottle of Dr. Vim. Halls Balsam for the lungs, which benefited me-
 1 continued until took nine bottles. am now in perfect health having used no other medicine" From the above it is plainly evident that there IS a cure for consumption, even in the most hopeles cases, and that cure is Dr. Vim. Hall $ Balsaln for the lungs. Cures all, coughs and colds. Cures all diseases of the lungs and chest. Cures pneumonia and sore throat, and is sure cure for consumption,
