The Paris Gamin.

Ever since Victor Hugo told the story
of Little Gavroche in "Les MtserabIes,"
there has been great interest in the
"gamins" of Paris. These little fel-
lows often leave good homes and wan
der in the streets in poverty, in order
to gain what they csll 'eiiberty." But
their adventures are often amusing. An
urchin of this class was brought into
court in Paris the other day, charged
with being vagrant. His mother ap-
peared to make an appeal for him. and
the following dialogue ensued;
Your boy was found sleeping in one
OF the parks last night" said the Jus
tice. This will never do"
"You hear" said the mother to the
boy. That will never do! You are a
bad boy" Go the judge) But ex-

Brights Disease.

The rapid increase of late of this for
midable and generally fatal disease of
the kidneys, and the frequent record of
death from 1t, makes a probable cure of
it matter of great interest to those af-
flicted with it. Doctors, after applica-
tions Of medical skill and effort for such
patients, give them up to die. A re-
markable case of this kind, Of gentle
man in a prominent position, has come
to the knowledge of the writer from the
lips of the patient, which am induced
% give to the public through your wide
y-circulated Newspaper, together with
the formula for its cure as successfully
used by him.
L. 2. Farmer, Esq, General Paseen-
ger Agent Of the Pennsylvania r. R.,
became severely afflicted with Bright's
Philadelphia end New York gave him
up rs ineurable. He then vent. a. he
thought TO die, 60 his old home in Goa
necticut, so weak as to require sid to
get up the steps Of his fathers house.
At this time he fell in with the article
recommended as cure. All else hav-
ing failed to do him any good, he re-
solved to try it. He did so, adhering to
it's requirements rigidly, and was re-
stored to health again solely by it. He
is now New England agent of the Penn
sylyania r. R., at Boston, restored to
perfect health again, fine specimen of
manly vigor, brought about by this sys-
tenn of cure, as follows:
Specific for heart disease, dropsy,
dyspepsia, diabetes, all troubles of the
kidneys, and chronic diarrhea.

A New Pattern for Stoves,

II Oscar Wilde, the man who has
made his fortune out of sunfiower,
while hundreds of Missouri farmers
have lost theirs through the baneful IN
fluence Of the same weed, which crowds
out the corn and flaunts its brezen-look-
ing blossoms in the face Of the poor.
agIle-stricken toiler-if Oscar ever
comes West, We'll cheerfully be Chair
man Of a convention called to lynch
him. His latest atrocity Is to attack
our -honored cast-iron stove, with
its ornamentation of cast-iron roses. In
his opinion it is an 'orrible monstrosity.
Perhaps Oacar wants his stoves made OF
maple sugar, carved into the form Of a
Venus. We thank heaven there Is only
one Of him.-BO0merang.

On and after the 10th day take Is ta-
blespoons Skim Milk every hour, daily,
except one hour before your usual hour
for dinner, and one hour after dinner.
For dinner, take as much rare beef as
you feel like, with q slice of bread (no
crust), ard half-cup of coffee (sugar
or milky.
For breakfast and supper, break one
slice of breSd (no crust) in the milk.
The bread should be 48 hours old,
never less than "a.
If the milk sours on the stomach, put
In 1t tablespoonful Of lime-water to a
pint of milk.
If you should become costive. eat q
fig or two at and after use Of beef and
coffee.
The first three or four days it will re-
Quire a severe mental effort to ''eat or
drink nothing but milk" but after the
first five days you will become accus-
toned to the system, and not feel that
strong desire for table food.
1t is strongly recommended to all af-
flicted with this fatal disease to give the
above remedy a strict and vigorous
trial. which will probably restore to
health again many who now think
themselves incurable.-F., ia Portland

THE STRIKERS.


Evictions at Cohoes Expected.
CoHoEs Aug. 15.-At the Harmony Mills TO-
day there is no change. All the mills are IN
operation with limited numbersof operatives,
Evictions from the company's tenements Will
be developed within the next three days.
Indiana Shoemakers Out.
LAFAYETTE, Aug. 15.-The boot and shoe
makers in three large manufactures here
struck today for advanced wages.
Must Accept Their Employers Terms.
PrrTsBURG, Aug. ia report comes from
the Mahonings Valley that Brown, Brunel &
Co., owners of one of the largest mills in the
country, whose pay roll is over mlllloa dol
lars per year have offered their employees old
wages, and say if the offer is not accepted they
will hire non union men.
One Thousand Boston Longshorernen
Quit Work.
BOSTON, Aug. 15.-The 'longshoremen's or
ganizations of Boston and East Boston struck
this morning, in accordance with their decis-
ion, for 40 cents an hour for day work, 50 cents
for night work and so cents for Sunday work,
During the past two years they.have been get
ting 80 cents an hour for day work and 40 cents
for night work. 1t is claimed that at the best
they cannot make more than 81 week, and
that the work is irregular and arduc US. They
state that they have given the steamboat COM
1anies months notice, and not having re-
ceived any reply. deem that the time is ripe
for the strike. 1t is estimated that about
thousand men have entered into the strike,
and as the organizations are under tgood disci-
pline, firm attitude will probably be main
tanned.
Interviews with the agents of the steamship
lines this forenoon elicit the fact that the Ley
land Line has discharged the 'longshoremen in
its employ and hired Italian laborers, and THAT
the Allan, Warren and Cunard Lines are una
BILE to communicate any arrangements with the
men. AS the Cunard Line does not expect the
arrival of a steamer before Monday next, on
account of the conveying of troops to the Med
iterranean, the company does not feel called
upon to hasten action.
Driver Boys Strike.
WILKEsBARRE, Aug. 15,-There are no
signs of any compromise between the striking
driver boys and Charles Parrish & Co., and the
streets are full of idle miners who are in favor
of the action of the boys. 1t is the intention
of the operators not to comply with demsnds
made by strikers. If the latter do not return
to work this week the mules at the Empire
mines will be removed Monday and the mines
be declared idle until the strikers return to
work upon the basis offered to them.
Charles Parrish & Co. issued an order this
afternoon that work would be resumed at the
Hollenback mine tomorrow. This will give
the dissatisfied portion of the driver boys
chance to return to work upon the basis offered
