Serious consequences are liable to ensue if
catarrh is not attended to in season. The
disease frequently destroys the sense of smell
and often develops into bronchitis or pulmo-
nary consumtion. Undoubtedly many cases
of consumption originate in catarrh. Hoods
Sarsaparilla cures catarrh and has even eff
fected remarkable cures of consumption itself,
in its early stages. A book containing state
ments of many cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla
will be sent free to all who send address to c.

Reverles of a Bachelor,

The true "Reveries of Bachelor" is yet to be written. Thes scene will not be laid in country house, but in the top story of boarding-house, or may be in a room just about large enough to en- able one good-sized person to turn around in it, there will be no wood fire there, with dying embers to glow and pale, there will be no fire at all there, unless it be the steadily burning, always redolent fire of the kerosene stove; there will be no toying of the wipd in rough play with the shaky bricks and loose mortar of the chimney, but the adjacent roofs near at hand will be alive with cats raising rasping shrieks one to another. In such room, among such surround ings, the bachelor begins to think seri- ously of married life, as he sits clumsily trying to thread the needle with which he will more clumsily sew on the button that must be made to stay ere he can sally forth presentable biped. Did it never strike you why the modern shirt is fastened from end to end with studs, and trousers have fancy catches in places where the buttons ought to be2 It is only the process of evolution adapting garments to the environment of an age in which marriage and the wifes needle are largely passing out of fashion,

The PIaything of an Empress.

Some marvels of the first great ice palace built by the Empress Anna Ivan- ovna, on the Neva, in 1739, are given in St. Nicholas for April: The inside of this great "plaything" was more won- derful than the exterior.
 One of the apartments was royal chamber. In it was a dressing table fully set out with looking glass and all sorts of powder and essence boxes, jars, bottles, watch, and pair of candle sticks and candles, all fashioned of ice. In the evening these candles were smeared with naptha and set in blaze without melting. A great ice-mirror was hung against the wall. On the other side of the room was the bedstead, with bed, pillows, counterpane, and cur tains, deftly wrought in ice. A large fireplace was on the right, with an ele- gantly carved mantel, and within it, up- on the curious andirons, were placed logs of ice which were occasionally smeared with naptha and ignited.
 The other principal room was alter nately termed the dining-room and drawing-room. An elaborately con- structed ice-table extended through the apartment. On each side were settees or sofas handsomely carved. In three of he corners were large statues; in the other was handsome time-piece pro- vided with wheels of ice, which were visible through the transparent case. All the other parts of the palace were fitted up in corresponding manner.-- "1he PLaQthinq of an Empress"

Mere Inventions.

If there is one thing more than anoth- CT of the regular dreary round of stereo- typed humor that I am rick of, says Luke Sharp, 1t is the eternal ringing of the changes on the alleged poverty of the country editor. The country editor gen. erally has pretty good thing of it if job work and advertising amount to any thing. These stories about burglar being laughed at by country editor for trying to find in the editorial desk at night cash that the editor looked in vain for in the day time, together with all the yarns about cord-wood on subscrip- tion, etc., are mere inventions of the enemy, who desire to hide the source from which our milIionaires spring.

4 Vast Enterprise.

It is HOW proposed to connect the railway system of America with those of Asia and Europe by means of a ferry conveying locomotives and cars across Behring's Strait. The project is to ex- tend the Canadian Pacific, now being constructed through Manitoba, by build ing a branch to Alaska until it reaches Behring's Strait There it would meet with the railroad tracks to be constructed in Siberia, which of course have their direct relations with the railway system of Russia and Europe. A line to Pekin is talked of. This having been done it requires not much further stretch of the imagination to see with the minds eye the long rails stretching out under the shadows of the Himalayas until they make connections with the proposed line in the Jordan Valley, and thence with the European system. This may seem wild, but stranger things have happened in this wonderful modern world of fours.-Demorcst Monthly.

Politics in Mexico.

Mexico has no political conventions. The newspapers do the nominating. The papers begin a discussion of candidates about a year previous to the Presidential election. Next they "postulate'' or nominate certain candidates. At the head of the paper will appear, "We postulate" SO and so, naming the jour- nal's choice. Then, on election day, the voters assemble at the polling places, and each deposits Q written ballot for electors, who are to constitute the Elec- toral Board of the State. This law stipu- lates that the ballot must be written, and table, with paper and writing uten. sils, is provided beside the ballot box, and tho ballot must be written and im- mediately deposited under the inspee- tion of the Supervisor. Sometimes the voters of the different parties will meet a few hours previous and agree upon some candidate, but usually each voter has made choice of candidates without any pressure from party machinery.

How Beck Became a Senator.

At meeting of the Washington Press Club the other night Col. Wintersmith told this story:
 'I was candidate for Senator from Kentucky in 1S76," he said, "when I told one story that defeated me, but 1 can tell it now without any such danger. One day was in the gallery of the Sen ate when McCreery, of Kentucky, rose to make a speech. Every Senator on the floor sought the cloak room, except his colleague, Garrett Davis, and the President. I could not help that, but when the stampede from the galleries began felt that my opportunity had come. Jumping to my feet I shouted Senator McCreery is a Kentuckian, so am I. The first man who moves out of this gallery sball die. All took their seats under duress, and for more than five mortal hours even we sat still, lis- tening to his address. When it was over I lowered the pistol, which had held ready in my hands, and the crowd started. With a gesture one man stopped the rush. Col. Wintersmith, he said, we have staid here under duress at your request. Now let me ask you favor. Tt is granted before it is asked, l said, not to be outdone in courtesy. He went on: Col. Wintersmith, we have been here nearly six hours, because we pre- ferred to stay rather than be shot. But, if this emergency ever happens again, we ask you simply this-shoot, without any barley Some newspaper men got hold of it. McCreery's men were so angry with me that rather than see me elected they turned in and chose Beck. ,

CHINESE WEDDINGS IN GEORGIA.
American Brides--Csrent SooIRI Sensation
 Riots, Lawsuits and Separation.

A letter from Georgia says: Con- nected with eiectment of Chinese mer- chants from Waynesboro last spring was little romance which has just ended disastrously. Willie Loo Chong, n spruce young Chinaman, began business in Augusta and prospered beyond ex- pectation. Among his friends was Mir. Fulcher, father of blooming daughter of fifteen, whom the young Chinaman married. The husband, elated with his pecuniary and social progress, wrote to his friends in California that Georgia was the ''place to get Melican wifee. " Two of them came and began business in Waynesboro, which was already dis gusted by the previous marriage. The evident amatory intentions of the men famed this indignation into flame, and resulted in their expulsion from town by an armed masked mob, which also up- turned and destroyed their goods.
 This matter came before the Chinese minister at Washington, was made the subject of an interesting correspondence, and is now undergoing investigation in the Federal Court in Savannah, through suit for $5O,00 damages. The pro- ceedings are upheld by Secretary Ere linghuysen, who has promised the Chi nese Minister ample reparation for his countrymen through the Court.
 The Chinamen of the city then became bolder; and last August still another mixed marriage took place, which had the full appreciation of the brides friends and relatives. A few weeks later the Chinese husband asked his white wife to do some very un-American thing; and on her refusal he turned her out of doors, and threw her clothing out after her. From this time the happiness oi Georgia's Chinese colony seemed to be sadly marred. Through it all Mrs. Willie Loo Chong reigned as social queen. But lately she, too, has failed to meet the ideal of her yellow husband. Quarrels ensued, in which it is said Loo Chong beat his wife unmercifully; and now she has quit him and returned tc the protection of her fathers roof.
