Halls Journal OF Health, referring to
Consumption, makes the following import
ant statement:
Consumption usually begins with Q
slight, dry cough in the morning, then on
going to bed, getting moro and more fire.
quent, with more and more phlegm, in
creasing debility, thinness of flesh, short
ness of breath, and Quickness of pulse. In
fatal cases its average course is about two
years; hence the importance of arresting
the disease at as early stage as possible,
and the sooner rational means are employed
Tor this purpose the greater the chance of
success. The disease is owing to an irrita-
zion commencing in the throat and extend
ing to the lungs, so that their action is in
terferred with, and the blood does not re-
ceive sufficient oxygen to purify it. The
most marked sign of lung disease is emacia-
ton; and the most positive indication Of
returning health is increase in weight"
So speaks HdlPs Journal Of Health, and
we may add that in desperate cases, and,

relief may be obtained and q permanent

all pulmonary and pectoral diseases. That
the worst cases of Consumption have been

attested to by the thousands who have used

remedial efficacy.

4 Prospector,s Opinion Of Alaska.

Ed. Schiefelin, the veteran prospect
pr, came off as soon as the Corwin had
anchored. A reporter found him, and
he cheerfully told some of the details of
bis trip. He says the country up there
does not suit him, and, in his opinion,
although there is plenty of gold there,
it will never be a great mining country,
as it is too cold and inaccessible. They
found the precious metal in paying
quantities about one thousand miles
from the Yukon River, in a district that
is full of springs. He thinks they av-
eraged thirteen dollars a day while they
worked. but that was not long. They
found the place October 8, 1882, and on
the 18th everything froze up solid and
they skated all round the claim. The
mercury in winter falls to fifty-tive de-
srees, and often lower. There are only
about three months that gold can be
washed, from May to August. There is
not so much timber as is generally sup
posed, and it is of poor quality. The
members of his party, Saucebrey, For
roster, and Young, besides himself and
and his brother, all kept in excellent
health. They were joined last June by
other young men, George Spangenberg,
Tom Reynolds, and John McGrew, who
came overland with dogs, and all except
Forester came down on the Corwin.
They joined the cutter at St. Michaels,
at the mouth of the Yukon. The little
steamer New Racket was sold, and For
roster, che engineer, remained with it.
Schieffelin is not going back, and as yet
has no plans.
Schieffelin looks IN the best possible
health. He is stout and ruddy checked,
with long brown hair reaching over his
shoulders, and his brown beard, that has
not seen a razor many years, extends far
down his picturesque and serviceable
blue flannel shirt.-San Francisco Bull

A Bafllcd Bridegroom.

Aunt Targood's gander had been the
terror of many well-meaning people,
and of some evil-doers, for many years.
l have seen tramps and pack-peddlerS
enter the gate, and start on toward the
door, when there would sound that
ringing warning like q war-blast:
''Honk, honkr' and in a few minutes
these unwelcome people would be gone.
Farmhouse boarders from the city
would sometimes enter the yard, think
ing to draw water by the old we'll
sweep; in 4 few minutes it was custom
airy to hear shrieks, and to see women
and children flying over the walls, fol-
lowed by air-rending 'nonks!'' and
jubilant cackles from the victorious
gander and his admiring family
Aunt TargOOd sometimes took sum-
mer boarders. Among those that re-
member was Rev. Mr.. Bonney, fer
vent-souled Methodist preacher. He
put the gandcr to flight with the cart
whip, on the second day after his ar
rival, and seemingly to aunt's great
grief; but he never was troubled by the
feathered tyrant again.
Young couples sometimes came to
Father Bonney to be married; and, one
summer afternoon, there rode up to the
gate very young couple, whom we
afterward learned had run away" or,
rather, had attempted to get married
without their parents approval. The
young bridegroom hitched the horse,
and helped from the carriage the gayly
dressed miss he expected to make his
wife. They started up the walk upon
the run. as though they expected to be
followed, and haste was necessary to
prevent the failure of their plans.
..Honkr'
They stopped. 1t was a voice OF
authority
Just look at him." said the bride.
ooh! OH"
The bridegroom cried ''Shoor" but
he might as well have said ''Shoo'' to a
steam-engine. On came the gander,
with his head and neck upon the ground.
He seized the lad by the calf of his
leg, and made an Immediate applica-
ton of his wings. The latter seemed
to think he had been attacked by drag
onS. As soon as he could shake him
off he ran. So did the bride, but in an
other direction; and while the two
were thus perplexed and discounted,
the brides father appeared in a car
rage, and gave her most forcible in
vitation to ride home with him. She
accepted it without discussion. What
became of the bridegroom, or how the
matter ended we never knew.-Heze-
