Rev. VIM. II. Bergfels, Of Newark,
thinks he has discovered a simple and
certain cure for catarrh which has long
bafled medical science. Mr.. Bergfels
was pastor Of the Baptist church at
Lyons Farms, but in 1872 was com.
PEELED to give up preaching on ac-
count Of a severe catarrhal affection.
He is a member of the New York
Nickel Plating Company, and one
evening after using in his business a
lacquer composed partly Of alcohol, he
found that his disease was not 80 bad.
He then put alcohol into an inhaler
and breathed the vapor arising from
it. He did this for a month, night
and morning, and was greatly reliev.
ed. A few months later he was cured,
and is again pastor Of the Lyons Farm
church. His family find that alcohol
also prevents colds. Mr. Bergfels de
sires to have the cause of his cure
made known.--[N. Y. Sun.

An Undiscovered Sense.

In a certain printing-office in this
city there Is a compositor who is deaf
and dumb. In the same printing-of
fee there are two other compositors
who are endowed with the power OF
evolving tremendous sneezes when the
spirit tickles their noses. One Of them
is little short, chubby fellow with a
round red face. The grandeur OF his
snetze is so utterly dispropotionate to
the diminutive size Of his body that
his fellow-printers refer to it as "a
wrong-font sneeze." The other is a
tall, rawboned Yankee who sneezes in
the good old down East fashion. Mel

positor who is deaf aud dumb and the
cases between them are 80 arranged

OF course he can not hear the noise.

the purchaser wants another chance,
he returns the first package and by
paying fifty cents more takes another

BY information received from Water
loo, it is learned that the storm of last
week took on the properties and appear
ance of an electrical wind storm in
some portions of that township. The
farm of Mr.. John Schwartz, very in
telligent German farmer living on high
ground, in the neighborhood of Mozart
ney's branch, was among the places
which drew an unlucky number. AS
told by Mr.. Schwartz, 1T appears he
saw the storm coming and hurried his
family into the cellar. He then remained
standing at the cellar door watching the
approach of the threatened danger,
when he was suddenly lifted up by an
unseen force, and thrown down into
the cellar, Fortunately he retained his
presence of mind and caught in such a
way as to save himself from serious in
jury. The house was not disturbed,
but the granery and stable on the prem
ises were lifted up and dashed to ruins.
In grove adjoining the house the trees
were twisted about each other as one
would twist withes, while every leaf
was blackened and scared as though it
had been burned. In the orchard a
curious phenomena was witnessed
where large and thrifty apple tree was
lifted completely out of the ground,
but not leaf was disturbed. The es-
cape of Mr.. Schwartz and his family
was a narrow one.
