81 years with kidney, bladder and

self of every imaginable way to find
relief by having the best medical skill
of our land exercised in my interest.
l had become entirely dispondent of
ever finding relief, as DR.. j. q. Boyd,
in whom L had utmost confidence,
and Others failed to relieve me, and

me without the knife. | accidental

About Advertising.

If you can arouse curiosity by an
advertisement it is great point
gained. The fair sex don't hold oil
the curiosity in the world.
1t is d mistaken notion that a fine
store in an eligible loo alton, surround
ed by attractive signs, is superior
advertisement, for the experience
of the most enterprising merchant is
that it pays better to spend less in
rent and more in advertising.
The enterprising advertiser proves
that he understands how to buy, be.
cause in advertising he knows how to
sell.
A simple card may probably stand
years without change, but sensa-
tional advertisement should change
as often as you can get the printer to
do it.
You can't eat enough in week to
last you year and you can't adver.
tise on that plan either.
To make a man realize an idea as
you realize it, is what is necessary to
make him understand his needs. An
advertisement must aim to place a
matter SO clearly before the public
that they see it as clearly as the nd
vertiser does.
Enterprising people are beginning
to learn the value of advertising the
year round. The persistency CT those
who are not intimidated by the cry
of dull times, but keep their names
before the public, will surely place
them on the right side in the end

FIRE.

The passenger station here was
burned, Monday morning, taking
fire undoubtedly from coal thrown
out by wood burning engine.
When discovered the lott was one
mass of flames. The roof was blazing
in only few places, but vast masses
of smoke were rising from the
crevices. It was at once apparent
that the building must be consumed,
and every effort was made to save
all moveables, and as the fire burned
downward slowly. everything, even
to the doors and windows in the
Office and waiting room was saved.
The loss, we understand will amount
to about $4,000. The wind was
light, and blowing in a favorable
direction, SO that no other buildings
were endangered. 1t is probble
that the railroad company will erect
a larger and much more commodious
building to accommodate their large
and increasing passenger business.
BY this fire our citizens must see our
hopeless case should fire break out
in the crowded business blocks OH
Front and Third streets. We heard
a good deal of talk about the matter,
but we presume it will end in talk,
until the lesson is learned that an
ounce of prevention is worth more
than ton of talk, after the business
portion OF our city has been wiped
out.

How Steward Crump Disobeyed
the Doctors.

How Steward Crump Disobeyed
the Doctors.
Mr.. Crump, the steward at the
White House during General Gar
fields administration, and one OF his
most faithful nurses, is now keeping
a dining room in the old Club House
building, on New York avenue, in
this city. He tells many interesting
"reminiscences Of President Garfield's
last illness; one of which is of the
day when the President first asked
him for = glass OF cold water.
Crump relates Chat the physicians
had forbidden rim water, but the
poor man begged SO hard and SO pit
ifal like that f. had frequently to
leave the room to keep from violat-
ing the doctors order. When he
found that pleading would not serve
his ends, then be assumed anauthor-
itative tone, and 1 instantly became
deaf Then lie tried persuasion and
cajoling; but=I wouldn't weaken, un-
til he suddenlycalled ME to him in
a low voice and with> tears in his
eyes, said: "Crump, would you re-
fuse a dying man a drink of water?"
mo, Mr.. President" I answered,
.but you are not dying" - ~..
"But, Crunp,'' he added feebly,
''if you do not give it to me, ( will
die" and he closed his eyes. |
couldn't stand that, and couldn't
disobey the doctors: But somehow
or another I just set 4 glass Of spring
water on the table by his bed, and
went to the window; and, hang me,
when / returned i that glass wasn't
empty, and the President wanted to
know, with a smile, what I meant BY
tantalizing Linn by putting glass
with 70 water il Il within his reach,
and he % thirsty However, he
never asked for any more that dajy, !,
and / am certain That i. he did drink
that Wateri it did him no harm.

bV'tOH IFUISCE III.
There is danger now hat the people will
ignore both the power and necessity of native
talent, and depend for results too much upon
the college. The literary world is by no
means alone in its speculative outlook as to
which of them will turn out the future wo-
man of letters, without asking what past
precedents have furnished sufficient reason
for such expectation Colleges can turn out
women of learning, women crammed with
facts, but it takes prenatal influences to
make the man or woman of letters. The col
lege can do as much for the son or daughter
Of the tradesman as for the progeny of the
poet; but nature is apt to breed a difference
