Cure for Diphtherin.

Dr. Dellhil. a French phi sician, says
that a sure cure in ordinary cases Of
dlphtheria. Is TO Use the vapor of tar
and turpeniine so as to kill and dis
solve the fibrous fungi that grow in
and choke up the throat unto death,
Dr. Dclthil's process is a simple and
easy one and easily applied by any
skillful physician or nurse. Pour
equal parts of tar and turpeni nc into
a cup; carefully mix and set fire to the
mixture. Dense fumes will fill the
room, and The doctor says, the patient
will soon feel relief. The fibrous
membrane in the throat will shrink
up and be detached and the patient
will cough up the deadly microbides,
which will dissolve in the smoke. Ii
is said that this remedy has proved
successful in New York. If the effects
are produced as stated by Dr. Dellhil
the discovery is IA great boon to onI
people. The remedy is easily applied
and perfectly harmless under cautious
management. Why not try il?

THE GERMAN NAVY.

Germany's navy has never yet been
strong enough to cope with that of En-
gland, or even with that OF France. 1t
played a far from conspicuous part in
the war of 1870, and its record of marine
exploits is meagre. But now Bismarck
is bent on increasing its efficiency. The
ready grant by the Reichstag OF eighteen
millions Of marks for, the construction of
torpedo boats and batteries, shows that
not only the Chancellor, but many depu-
ties who are opposed to him, are re-
solved that the navy shall become
strong auxiliary Of the magnificent army
which stands ever ready for fray, from
whichever side it may come. But it
need not be inferred that this naval in
crease means that Bismarck foresees
war in the near future. He is rather
preparing for eventualities which may
happen, though now remote, and not an
ticipated. Meanwhile the toiling mill
ions Of Germany must pay the added
taxes, and rest, with such patience as
they can, beneath tke iron military
regime which relies upon its armed le-
gions to maintain its power, and even
its existence,

A Big Drink.
[Elizabeth Evans, IN the Manbattan !,


One of the principal treasures of the
Rathhaus collection in Bavarian Rothen-
burg is an immense pokal or goblet,
holoing twelve Bavarian Echoppen, full
six quarts. 1t was intended to be
passed around the table at grand feasts;
but on one memorial occasion it was
drained to the last drop by single in
diyidual, who was noIe the worse for
his excess. Perhaps his motive was his
protection. 1t happened in this wise:
When, in 1851, Count lilly, with his
whole army, took possession of the city,
he called the council together, informed
them that they were all to be beheaded, !,
and sent the mayor to summon the exc
cutioner forthwith. AS may be sup.
posed, the man did not hurry to do his
errand, and when he at last arrived at
the house the executioner plumply re-
fused to undertake the task OF cutting
off the head Of his respected fellow.citi-
zens, the councillors.
During this interval, while the people
were lamenting,, the executioner pro-
testing, and the mayor shaking in his
shoes, the councillors, in their despera-
ton, hit upon bright idea. They
filled the great pokal with their choicest
wine and offered it to lilly aud his at.
tendants. In a few moments the tenn
per of the haughry conquerer was soft
ened, he grew more compassionate
toward bis victims, and at last, becom-
ing jolly over his frequent draughts of
the mellow liquor, he promised to set
his trembling prisoners at liberty, if one
OF their number would, in his presence,
drink the great pokal full OF wine.
This offer seemed at first only cruel
aggravation of their misery; but after an
anxious discussion certain Herr
Nusch, former mayor, accepted the
challenge and succeeded in the appar-
emily impossible task. lilly kept his
word; servant was sent in all haste to
call back the mayor and bid the execu.
toner cease his preparations. The
street through which the servant ran on
his welcome er1and is called Peace alley
(FriedensgasscheD) to this day, and the
descendants of the brave ex-mayor still
enjoy yearly pension from the public
funds, besides remaining owners Of the
famous pokal.

Ginger Nails Cameoed. Price. s2s

GUS to know what this sign meant, was
ushered into the small parlor of a small
house near Walnut Street. In few
moments the folding doors of the rear
parlor opened and modest looking
young woman came out.

Certainly, SIR" was the smiling re.

cameo on either of your thumb nails,
portraits, initials or crest, Just as you
choose to have it"
's1s that not something new?"
ut is the very latest idea from Paris,
and l am the only manicure in this coun-
try who can do it. I studied it for two
months there, and only came home
about six months ago; but don't think
Philadelphia is up to the cameo idea yet.
l have only had three customers for
that sort of work. l think I shall take
an Office in New York. should no
doubt do much better over there"
ut seems to bean expensive luxury?"
swell, yes, it is 80. To cut good
portrait head on your thumb nail and
then finish it properly I should have to
charge $50; but would do crest or a
monogram for $40 or $50 dollars, or even
$25, as say on the sign"
"What sort of designs have your Gus.
toners here chosen?"
"All portraits. Two were young men
whowere engaged and wanted their fan
Gees portraits done. and the other was
ayoung married lady who had her hus-
bands picture cut. She said it was for
his birthday present."

A TEMpEs1uous VOYAGE.
Log of the Steamer Chateau Margaux
Which was Towed Into Halifax.

Log of the Steamer Chateau NIargaux,
Which was Towed Into Halifax.
TORONTO, March 25.-The log of the
steamer Chateau Margaux gives details
of terrible voyage. The Margaux left
Bordeaux with provisions for only
twenty days, but meeting the Morse
man she secured fresh supply, but
conld not get other help. On the 11th
inst. the wind blew terrible gale; i'm
mense waves swept continually over the
vessel, carrying off everything above
decks and damaginga portionof the bull
warks. The gale lasted three days.
Several vessels were sighted, but they
were unable to help the Margaux on ac-
count of high seas and her own
rudderless condition. However, they
gave all possible encouragement and at
tempted to render assistance. The
steamer Oregon on the 10th inst. took
off three cabin and forty-five steerage
passengers, who returned to England.
On the evening of the 18th another
heavy Northwestern raised the waves to
q mountainous height, rolled and pitched
the vessel and threatened to swamp her.
board and at times the steamers
boilers'shook in their stands. It seemed
certain that they would break loose.
On Saturday last, when about $50 miles
from Halifax, the steamer Caledonia,
took the Margaux in tow and brought
her safely in port. The Margaux is a
magniGcently equipped boat, and is in
tended for the direct New York trade.

A DAKOTA BLIZZ1RD.

o. - "a ~ n
"A letter from Dakota, describing a
blizzard says that when one of the
fierce storms attacks section it grows
cold very rapidly. Nothing can keep a
man from losing his way in blizzard,
the snow is SO binding, and no clothing
will save him from freezing unless he
can fled shelter. The writer says: "To
live in these blizzards is almost an i'm
possibility. No horse can be made to
face tho blast, and only men who have
long been accustomed to the rigors of
the North can breathe in them. There
is something suffocating about the wind.
The nostrils and tongue seem ready to
CONCEAL and the eyes ache far back in
their sockets. Ten feet away may yawn
achasm yet the driving SHOWS will hide
it from view. There is ringing, roar
ing noise, such as is sometimes family
heard under telegraph wires on a clear
cold night. At times the roar OF the
storm will resemble nothing SO much as
escaping steam, like thousand loco
motives blowing off at once. When this
dies out for an instant the ringing noise
will riseand fall, sometimes shrek and
sometimes hum"

THE BAD BOY.

The Canadian way OF dealing wits,
youthful bandits is better than ours.
Recently gang Of boys were captured
Kingston while on romantic tbiey-
ing raid. The magistrate sent them all
to Jail and detailed stalwart policemen
to take them from the cell one by one,
place them on bench, and give each
hero a good ktrapping. The boys
screamed and yelled at great rate, and
some of them fell upon their knees end
begged to belet Of, j but the knight of
the star and club laid on the belt good
and strong, in spite of their kicks and
prayers. An undilated dose of belt
would perhaps prove more effective than
anything elsein placing a wholesome
restraint upon gangs of youthful des-
peradoes eager to emulate Jesse James.
The customary legal correction gives
them q notoriety which is rather graft.
flying to their ambition to become ''bold
bandits hunted by the horrid minions of
the law"
