One Han who Knew his
Own Business

NO. my DEAR said the venerable keeper
of a country store to n timid little girl whose
head scarcely came up TO the level of the
counter. No, my dear, VIC haven't any red
flannel, but VIC have some first rate New Or
leans molasses." Softly limiting that she
didn't think that would answer the purpose
quite as we'll, the child went her way in
search ofjhe article she wanted.
"IIave yOa BENSON'S CAPCINE PLAS-
TEBS?" asked gentleman Of n certain drug
Gist whose name could be given were it de
sired. Il am troubled just now with a touch
of my old friend, the lumbago, and the Ben
sons Plaster seems 10 go TO the spot almost as
soon as it touches the skin"
Not at present" replied tho druggist, gen.
tally IS but, we have lots Of plasters just as
good. There is AIleock's, the Capsieum and
Others-won't one Of them do rs wells'
my dear sir" retorted the gentleman
with slight show Of temper. IL say nothing
again-t those articles, but am business
man, and always ask for precisely what ]
want. and for nothing else. 1 may enlighten
you, however, when l say that sometime ago.
for another disease. of which the Capcine has
since cured me, l tried all those you mention,
with no appreciable benefit. They are inefii-
cient, every one Of them. the meanest act OF
the proprietOrs of some Of them being this
that they make plasters with similar sound
ing names to deceive the unwary into believ
ing they are the same Thing. Experience
taught me the difference. I'll go to the next
man in your line. Good day"
DO on our guard against limitations. The
genuine has the word CAPCINE cut cleanly
in the middle Of the plaster. 8ll others are

imagining Sickness.

Among the papers left behind
him by a German physician who
died a few weeks ago is one con-
tanning notes of certain conclu-
sions he had arrived at during a
professional experience OF more
than forty years. In one Of these
notes he expresses an opinion that
at least third OF the illness Of the
patients who had sought his ad-
vice were purely imaginary. He
found it not only against his own
interest, but also against that of
the self-alleged sufferers, to destroy
the illusion by informing them
that there was really no cause for
anxiety. Ill health was la hem a
matter of almost vital Impor-
tance. To destroy the pleasing
belief that they possessed this
blessing was an absolute cruelty.
In the few instances in which
he broke to them the terrible
truth that they were quite well,
he found that the result was genu-
I
inc illness. For the patients, all
interest in life departed with their
iavorite occupation OF nursing
themselves, and their health be-
came seriously affected by Derv-
Gus depression. He also found
that, as a rule, weakly persons
live longer than strong ones.
Without going SO la is 10 say
that the best lives are those re-
jected by the insurance offices. he
thought nevertheless ihat persons
with a "screw loose" more often
attain longevity than those in
whom no trace of disease can be
detected.

PLAIN
TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
Of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part Of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively nat injurious.

AGAINST ELECTRIC LIGHT WIRES.

The Committee on Finance of the Board of Alder
NJ en- have presented long report with reference TO
erection of poles III the city 10 support telegraph
telephone, ecric light and other wires. The COM
mitee says it has examined the question so far az IT
relates to the erection and use OF poles for eectr
light wires. There are IN use wires by the
Edison United States, and Brush Illuminating
Companies. The committee is of the opinion that
prompt action is necessary by the Common COUNCIL
to relieve the citizens from an evil winch is daly
increasing and that has already attained "a growth
which is alarming. The loss of property by fire
caused by the contact of electric conductors can he
made good, butwhen lives are endangered 1t is the
imperative duty of the Common Council to inter
pose between the citizens and the electric lllumn-
ating companies, and compel a compliance with the
terms of their grants from the corporate AUTHORITIES
by recurring them 10 remove the poles and wires
from the highways, and lay their tubes, wires and
conductors beneath the surface of the streets. The
committee submitted an ordinance requiring every
Illuminating company within SIX months from the
passage of the act to lay its wires or conductors
underground, and for removal of all the poles now
in use Refusal neglect to comply with the re-
0uremeuts of the ordinance subjects the offending
companies to a heavy fine, which may be imposed
by any police magistrate One.half To go to the IN
former or complainant The report and ordinance
were laid over for one week under the rules.

r,TsF REPORTS ABOUT MR.. TILDEN.

The statement was made by The u ord on Sunday
that Samuel J. Tildcn had provided III hlH Will for
leaving his large double house on the south side OF
Granercy Park (which has cost with the ground
about $500, 900 aud his collection Of books en-
cravings etc, as free gift TO the public, the con-
trol of the bcqucst to be III the hands OF John ge-

considerable time WOrbmen have been busy under
the direction of Calvert VauN, the architect recon

Joining. purchased by him several years ago and
the double building is now nearly ready for occu-
pancY. ~
Several intimate friends of Mr. Tilden, when
asked about the alleged Request by TRIBUNE re-
porter Yesterday said that they mad heard nothing
whatever of the proposed free public library and
art gallery The large city mansion is no new
his own in 1873. Soon alterward he went TO
Europe intending TO begin the work OF recon
structing ms houses when he, returned. When he
came back in 1874 he elected Governor, and
for two wears aftcTwaTd necessarily AT Albany:
Then came the Presidential campaign OF 1876, and
the excitement that succeeded II. MI, lndeh
purchased GreystOne, near lOnkcIS. and that en-
crossed much of his attention. Finally ne turned
again to his old scheme and the result Is the hand
some house in GramCrcy Park.
What Mr. Tildcn proposes to do with his large
estate do not believe any one knows said one OF
his intimate friends yesterday. Certainly he IS
one of the last men to make such an announcement
as that given in Ihe World when a simple codicil 10
