Ben's Persuader.

A Houston (Tex. correspondent tells
the following story of Ben Thompson,
the Texas desperado, recently killed at
San Antonio:
When Ben was City Marshal of Aus
tin an advertising agent was seen by
him painting an advertisement of some
patent medicine ON the outside of q
corner grocery. Ben having been in
formed that the man had not first OBJ
tanned the owners consent ordered him
to erase it Immediately.
The painter protested that he had
permission to paint the sign, but Ben
was not to be trifled with. Drawing
forth his six" he Numbered, Five
minutes to take it off,"
And it was off before five minutes
had expired.
About the time the painter finished
erasing his work the owner of the store
appeared, and, seeing the situation of
things, informed Thompson that the
advertiser had obtained his consent to
paint the sign.
Thompson apologized to the man of
paint and told him he might repaint the
sign.
The fellow said he believed he didn't
care to.
Again came forth Ben's deadly weap-
on as he said:
Five minutes to put it up again"
And he put it up.

Ventilation.

1t is true that cold draught is dan
gerous. DR.. Angus Smith, the great
English authority on air, says: 1T
Stays like a sword" But impure air
is no better, and if one causes pneumo-
MIA the other creates consumption.
Bringing air through the furnace tiues
is all very well, provided it is taken
from pure source of supply. But if,
as in most cases, the cold-air box Of
the furnace ends over a damp, dirty
area adjoining one of our unswept and
filthy streets, the supply is far from
wholesome. DR.. LOOMS and other
specialists have since pointed out the
bad effects of New York dust upon the
human lungs, yet the dusty air from
our streets is sucked into 10000 furnace
cold-air boxes, and is the chief lung
food OF our population. Because this
air has been warmed it does not follow
that it is wholesome.
1t is perfectly easy to prevent draft
by raising the sash few inches, and,
placing narrow board in the place be-
low, so that the cold air will enter be-
tween the upper and lower sash, and
be detected toward the ceiling without
causing any annoyance 10 persons in
the room. There are number of pat
ented devices for the same purpose, but
the arrangement here described can be
adopted by anyone at the cost Of few
cents. The chief difficulty about VEN
tilating most dwelling houses is that
there are not sufficient means of carry
ing off the foul and heated air. If pro-
vision is supplied for doing this, then
plenty of fresh air will leak in through
the window castings and cracks, as
most Of our houses are not tightly
built. Great benefit may be ATTAINED
from open fre-places, which, to the
esthetes, are coming largely into use.
All tire-boards should be abolished.
The art of ventilation has been called
one of the lost arts, if indeed it ever
was an entirely developed art. In our
modern houses and flats, with their
masses of upholstering and decoration
to obstruct the sunlight and prevent
free circulation of air, and with the
many sources of impurity, such as
cooking, washing and plumbing appli-
ances, and still more the gaslights and
steam heating apparatus, the necessity
for attention to ventilation becomes
daily apparent. The almost universal
prevalence of catarrh, and the worn
out, wearied look of Americans which
Herbert Spencer noted, may be justly
charged to the bad ventilation of our
houses, and it is time our people should
'oka bold nf the matter PROMPTLY.

The Art of Drinking Milk.

Milk should not be taken in copious
draughts like beer or any other fluid
which differ from it chemically. II we
consider the use of milk in infancy, the
physiological ingestion, that is, of
food provided for it, each small mouth
full is secured by effort and slowly pre-
sented to the gastric mucuous surface
for the primal digestive stages. 1t is
thus regularly and gradually reduced
to curd, and the stomach is not OPP
pressed with lump of half-coagulated
milk. The same principle should be
regarded in case of the adult. Milk
should be slowly taken in mouthfuls, at
short intervals, and thus it is rightly
dealt with by the gastric juice. II
milk be taken after other food, it Is al
most sure to burden the stomach and
cause discomfort and prolonged indi-
gestion, and this for the obvious reason
that there is not sufficient digestive
agency to dispose OF il, and the better
the quality of the milk the more severe
the discomfort will be under these con.
ditions. Popular Science Monthly.

A BlaCksnake's Feast.


While was moving in the meadow
heard couple of old guinea hens max
ing a fearful noise, and upon going to
where they were. found that very
large blacksnake had coiled itself
around the nest in which were three
eggs. soon concluded from his looks
that he had been swallowing eggs, so |
took up my moving blade and cut his
head OIL pretty well back of the first
egg. Standing upon his tail with one
foot, and pressing his body with the
back of my moving blade, very soon
landed nineteen eggs, safe and sound,
all in a pile. Then with a stick | very
carefully rolled them back into the
nest, making twenty-five in all. The
old hen, after considerable sparring
around, went on to the nest again, and
in few days came strutting up the
yard with nineteen little chicks. Upon
going back to the nest | found three
eggs which had not Matched, and they
were rotten. Troy MO-, } Free Press.

In the Pilot House.

"Yes, sir; this kind of work obliges q
man to keep sober as judge. Of all men
in the world, steamboat pilots and railroad
engineers should let liquor alone. For on
their clearness of sight and GOODNESS of head
depends the safety of life and property"
Keeping his hand on the wheel as he
said this, Mr.. A. Brockman, of No. 99Ha
Silver street, Chicago, added: "Of course,
some of 'em drink; but the sober ones have
the best positions and the best pay. Yes,
the work and exposure sometimes tells on
us; but for my part, find PARKER's Tonic
to be all the invigorant l need. I've got a
bottle aboard here now never 60 on trip
without it. When l haven't any appetite,
or am in anw way out OF sorts, it sets me
up in no time. If drinking men would use
the Tonic, it would help 'em to break
off. No. that isn't lighthouse; it's q

saying, the Tonic is new life bottled up.

MY wife has used it for three years for

work. She says the Tonic is daisy. Good.
bye! Don't break your neck going below"
asThis preparation, which has been known
PARKER's GINGER Tonic, will hereafter
be advertised and sold simply under the
name of PARKER's Tonic. AS unprincipled
dealers are constantly deceiving their Gus.
TONERS by substituting inferior articles un-
der the name Of ginger is really an unim
portant ingredient, we drop the misleading
word.
There is no change, however, in the
preparation, itself, anil all bottles remain

the name Of PARKER's GINGER Tonic, con-
tain the genuine medicine if the fac smile

Modern skepticism delights in tearing

Modern science devotes itself to discovering
the truth. Science has shown that rheuma.

from disordered state of the blood, and
following upon this is the discovery of Ath-

dition, and the great remedy for those twin
