TWISTS AND TWINCES,

bright autumnal Sunday, there is lesson from
the cornfeld. God has arranged that the ear and
the husk shall be parted Every rheumatic pain
is but thrust of the husking-peg, and every

Possible; but nobody wants TO be husked, for
all that, and nature teaches to resist the pro-
cess. Therefore, we accept with gratitude what
ever helps us to suppress ttose very twists and
twnges.
From his pleasant home, Greenmont, near Sing
Sing N. Y, NJ. Alfred Baer, a French gentleman,

certify with pleasure that it restored my health.
Messrs. HiscoX & Co. call especial attention to
the fact that this preparation, which has been
known as Parker's Ginger Tonic, will hereafter
be advertised and sold simply under the name of
Parker's Tonic. As unprincplcd dealers are con-
stantly deceivlng their customers by substituting
inferior preparations under the name of ginger,
and as ginger is really an unimportant ingre-
dent, we drop the misleading word.
These Is no change, however, in the preparation
itself, and all bottles remaining in the hands of
dealers, wrapped under the name of Parker'S
Ginger Tonic contain the genuine medicine if
the facsimile signature of HiscoX Il Co. Is on the
bottom of the outside wrapper.

IN THE BLACK FOREST
The Hoosiers Who Went to the 'Bad"-
Five Miles on Foot.
Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal.

correspondence OF the Indianapolis Journal.
BLACK FOREST, July 8.-After three hours
of ingenious windings and delusive feints
at going somewhere, we finally reached
Calico, at an airline distance of about twenty
miles from Stuttgart our starting place.
How such a journey would harrow the soul
of George Washington Phipps; he would
no doubt be found on the locomotive trying
to bride the engineer to hurry the thing
up little. The billy nature of the country
may make the windings necessity, but to
the writer they seemed contrived on purpose
to delude the innocent traveller. "Ah" quoth
the Hoosier, this is the loveliest valley of
them ALL beats the last all hol-
low!'' and his hard-hearted COM
panion got his revenge for the sickly
pun by retorting that the present and last
valleys" were one and the same view, seen
from different height. While noting the
characteristics of town the discovery was
frequently made that we were enjoying but
different view of a station passed some fif-
teen minutes before. Our train seemed to
be lost, but at last, when hope was nearly
gone, we spied Calico in a valley, 800 or 700
feet below. Instead of landing us here the
train preserved consistent reputation by
going first to the next station and then back
to Calico on lower elevation. DESTROYS of
speedier conveyance, and indignant that
such a modern innovation had dared
to defle the lovely valley we
declined the services of the other railway
and started out to complete the remaining
five miles of our journey on foot At Hir-
schan we passed the old Abbey ruins cele-
brated in Longfellows Golden Legend"
An immense tree, which has grown up
through the center of the building, spreads
its protecting branches over the remaining
walls, and completes scene we'll worthy of
poets pen. Intoxicated with the charm
ing scenes which met our gaze on every side,
we trudged along, giving vent to some of the
most wonderful superlatives on record. At
the "Unteres Bad" an inn near the little
village of Liebenzell, we were Hospitality re-
ceived, and after a hearty repast seated our
selves on balcony, to enjoy the wonder
fully pure air, and contemplate through the
gathering darkness one of the most
charming bits of nature to be found
in the world. After poisoning the air
with some of the bad cigars for which Ger
many is noted, and breaking the quietude
with some of the most violent arguments
ever waged by two adherents of different
countries in behalf of their native lands,
the Hoosier babe the benighted German good
night and left him to dream over his grand
ideas of love for royalty. On going to his
room the advocate of merit first and blood
last, threw open his window, Gained his
mind by the contemplation of the peace pre-
yailing about him, and then retired and
dreamt Of scenes in which, as representa-

tive from the heart of the Indian country,
he had favored sundry Germans with nara
tives of ordinary Indianapolis life, such as
massacres and buffalo hunts.
Among the interesting sights of the Black
Forest are the peasants. In one of our ex-
cursions we saw one of these who, tall, hand
some and picturesquely dressed, was truly
fascinating, Unconscious beauty is the most
attractive, and here it was in an ideal state.
The highest order, the landowner, is, while
generally quite wealthy, very unpretentious,
and only distinguished by his costume, that
of the colonial period" The openings be-
tween the trees which cover the sides of the
hills are the "chutes" through which the
pine logs are sent crashing to the banks of
the little river. Here they are stripped, tied
together in long RATS and placed in the wa
ter to be towed to the mills And the evening
and the morning were the third dav. Our
vacation was spent. 1t was too bad" Re-
luctantly and sadly we consigned ourselves
to the tricky train once more and prepared for
entering the cold, cold world again. Lucky is
the man who, in need of rest, has his foot
steps guided to this favored spot. Here he
can step out of the world and find nothing to
recall it, for everything is consistent at
Liebenzell. All, from the wild canary birds,
the anxious solicitance of the waiter girl, and
the kindness of the peasants, to the huge
hills themselves, is charming. These giants.
as though realizing the necessity of conform
ing to the nature of the scenes which they
guard, have hidden their awful sides, foot
deep, in moss
At Ludwigsburg we visited the largest
organ works in the world and saw the largest
organ ever made. 1t is to go to Riga, Russia.
The Boston organ, which was made here, is
to be enlarged soon and made even larger
than the Riga organ. This done, member
of the firm said they should never attempt
larger, for such an instrument was not
needed. In half an hour more we were in
Stuttgart and the tragedy was ended.

A WONDERFUL LAKE,
A Remarkable Body of Subterranean Water
| Found.
Pittsburg Special.

A wonderful subterranean lake has Just
been discovered in the Allegheny valley, near
the town of Freeport, about thirty miles
from this city. 1t lies deep under a large
HILL which has been honeycombed with the
old coal-pits and salt wells The hill is back
from the Allegheny river about 200 yards,
and it was by the merest accident that the
existence of the vast body of water beneath
it was discovered in time to avert terrible
disaster to life and property. Recently coal
mine was opened on the side of the hill, and
for several weeks miners have been digging
out tons of black diamonds. The other day
they were driving a room eastward about
100 yards from the main entry, when they
came near blasting through thin wall into
an old coal-plt, which was abandoned fifty
years ago, and whose existence was forgot
ten. A tiny stream of water gurgled out,
and an opening being made, the lake was re-
vealed to the astonished workmen. The full
extent of the sheet of water cannot yet be
definitely estimated, but it is of remarkable
size. The old pit, which is part of its bed,
has not been worked since 1886, and long
before and up to that time all that territory
was drilled and mined for salt and coal I'm
mense quantities of both had been taken out,
leaving acres upon acres of cavity under the
hill, which since then has been closed up
and filling in with water that had no means
OF egress, all the pits having originally been
| reached by shafts. The largest of these old
pits was the one that the miners encountered.
1t is several yards above the present mine,
and had the blast broken the wall or floor ali
the men would have been drowned, and the
water, rushing in flood out of the new pit
would have washed away the railroad and
dwellings. 1t has already submerged them
to some extent: After tapping the lake the
workmen made the opening larger by de-
grees, so that they could see in. Blazing
torches were thrown in, and small. RATS with
fires built upon them were sent far across the
underground waters. The eye was incapa-
BILE of fathoming the limits of the interior
but by sounding and geological calculations
it is pretty we'll settled that the water under
lies the greater part of the hill, and the hill
is about two miles long and half mile wide
Navigation upon the lake by means of
skiff is as yet impossible, the water being
within few feet of the roof of the pit AS
the hole is gradually enlarged the volume of
water allowed to escape grows in volume. 1t
is now pouring out in stream five feet in
diameter, and has rushing cataract roar
like Niagara. The owners of the mine hope
TO draw all the water off in month or two
but it is believed by some that the lake is fed
by underground springs and cannot be ex-
bauSted.
