BuAKE'S PILLS.

Tho Astonishing Cure Wrought BY . Box
of Globules Which Were Not Even Swsl-
lowed.
The present mania for doctoring
and dosing. recalls an incident in the
experience of Mr.. Josh Blake, son Of
the late Madame Blake, of Mount Yer
non street. Mr.. Blake was not feeling
remarkably well, and while contem-
plating q trip to Calcutta and other
places. thought he would study up his
own ailment from a medical treatise,
over Which he spent considerable time.
At last, finding a case repesenting-
al he supposed-his own, and which
w4 fully described, and with 1t had
the prescribed remedy annexed. be
was satisfied that he could cure himself.
He accordingly copied verbatim the re-
ceipt giveT andhie him to n of the
leading Druggists. He displayed the
copied receipt and ordered it prepared.
saving he would ''wait for it." The
| clerk looked "a little surprised. bat
merely said: at will require some time
to fill this prescription if you want the
whole quantity, and aS' we are pretty
busy it win not be READY before to-
mOrroV~ afternoon
At fhe appointed time Mr. Blake
called for his little package of medi-
| cinS," and was considerably non
plnssed when the clerk brought out for
him a box measuring nine inches in
length and about five inches in width.
and the same in depth. filled with pills!
! and with it a bill for ten dollars. As
he had ordered the whole quantity
there was nothing to do but to take it
and pay for it; but afterwards in re-
counting the joke he had so unwit-
tingly played upon himself, he made
use of some short but very emphatic
words in plainest English. and even
then declared that he could not do the
subject justice. He took the pills
with him to Calcutta; the passengers
and crew were all well on the trip out
and back. Whether on account Of the
big boxful of pills or not we will not
pretend to say.-BOSt0n Courier.

The following is vouched for by q
minister's wife, and therefore must b

A clergyman VISITING 2 woman in q
severe illness, asked:
DO you derive any comfort from the
instruction of the Bible?"
..Oh. YES. indeed" was the reply.
..What particular passage do you
RELY upon at present." asked the minis.
ter.
.'Grin and bear it." replied the sui.
ferer.
The clergyman departed to look up q

Horace Greeley was a great eater;
he d dn't care eAabout quality. but
went in for qmRfM" said John
Schlosser. caterer f6 Duquesne
Club, while talking of sohe of his ex-
periences the other day. Mr.. Scblosser
was at one time caterer of a famous
New York hotel. and afterwardf held
the same position at We&ckeHs, in
Washington. and naturally he has a
large fund of anecdotes of distinguished
men.
How did you become acquai6ted
with Greeley's hab.ts?" asked1 the
writer.
Il was caterer at the - house
when Greeley lived there" replied MI
| Schlosser. He was a very queer old
man and a good natured IN generally.
He would sit in his room dressed in 3
dirty old dressing-gown with an. old
pair of slippers on. and read the papers
early in the morning. 1t was
wonderful the number Of papers
he would read and throw in
piles all around the room, and if any
of them were lost or were taken away
when his room was cleaned up, he
would be furious. He was a great eat
er of fruits. Nearly every day baskets
and even barrels of fruit were sent to
him. He was very fond of pineapples,
and some friend sent him tvso and three
barrels at a time, which he enjoyed
with great relish"
"Was he a good liver and fond OF
delicacies and French cooking?'
Not at all. As long as a dish
pleased his taste he never stopped to
inquire what it was called, or what it
was made of. If he wanted a repeti-
ton of it he would say: Il want some of
that you gave me the other day. and
that would end it. He was an nor
NOUS eater, but was too much of a
farmer to ARE to 60 into details. He
never gave any banquets ordinners to
Ais friends. Sometimes one of his init
mates, MIR. Bardsley. the lawyer, would
give Mr.. Greeley a dinner, but Greeley
never gave him any in return. Mr..
Greeley was in bad health then, and !
think that his manne of eating did not
make him any healthier. "-Pitts6nrgh

Frisky Old Gentleman.
Surely the drollest breach-of-promise
case ever brought into court is one
now pending at Williamsport. Pa. A
tough old veteran of eighty became
enamored of a buxom beauty of
twenty-eight, of the name Of Kentner.
and promised to marry her. Wind of
the affair reaching the sons OF the old
man and the parents of Miss Kentner,
they put their heads together and
stopped the foolish business. BY way
of a salve to the lady's feelings she got
$3, 600 damages. But the octogenariaf
met his charmer again. memory did
bring back the feeling. and they agreed
to elope. The lady. like Miss Mel
notte in the novel, kept her word and
went to Detroit, where her aged lover
was to meet her. But he. | Ike Sir Fe-
lix, was not on hand. Whether he
had the same reasons for not keep
ing his engagement as that worthless
baronet. or whether his sons kept too
close q watch on him, W. are not in,
fifxdsd. We are only told that the lady
returned home from Detroit ''crazed

changed into the historic fury of the
woman scorned when she learned that
