THOSE who are afflicted with impaired
nervous systems will find Dr. Henleys
Celery, Beef and Iron to be preparation
specially suited to their physical require
ments. The powerful nervine properties of
Celery can be guessed from the fact that its
action reaches directly to the heart, and
pitation and other diseases of the heart.
Dr. Henleys preparation is made from
Leibig's Extract OF Beef, Extract of Celery
and Phosphate of Iron, with condensed
wine. This is combination the merits of
which must commend themselves to any
person possessed of ordinary intelligence,
SO self-evidcnt are they. as a tonic, Celery,

A small volume of statistics, showing
the work done by the postoffices of t P9
world, has just been published in Flor
ence. From this it appears that in 1888,
the latest year for which complete returns
are available. there were in Europe 65, 500
receiving officers, Al 500 telegraph offices
and 225, 900 letter boxes The total num-
Der of persons employed by the various
pOstofices was 800, 900, and in the twelve
months there were transmitted $50, 900, 600
letters, $40, 900, 900 post cards, ], O46, 900
books and parcels, 1872 900, 900 news
papers and 1900, 900 kilograms, the
gross weight of the matter sent through
the post being estimated at about 800, 900
tons.
The lowest charge for the conveyance
of any letter or post card was one.ifth of
cent, the highest $25 The total receipts
of the various offices amounted to $3.50
$50, 900 and their expenditures to $159, :
100000. These figures are surprising
when one remembers that less than half a

all kinds that pass through tie postoffices

ers They were down on the sea shore in

there. we then strolled further down
to watch the fading light. The tide came
ripping in. The night grew darker, star
less, mOonless. Dickens seemed suddenly
to be possessed with the spirit of mischief;
he threw his arms around me and ran me
down the inclined plane to the end Of the
Jetty till we reached the tollpost He
put his other arn around this. and ex-
claimed in theatrical tones, that he in
tended to hold me there till the sad sea
waves should submerge us. Think Of
the sensation we shall create"
"Here implored him to let me 60, and
struggled hard to release myself Let

Biting at the Naked Hook.
brooklyn Eagle.1


Some little time ago there appeared an
advertisement in a weekly journal in
which the writer affected to make an
offer to the reader, which he assumed no
one would answer, simply on account of
incredulity. His proposition was made as
test to show if there was any faith left
in mankind He didn't expect any reply,
but he simply made the experiment
The offer was to the effect that if any of
the readers would send him five cent
stamps he would return them present
suitable to their wishes. Nine people out
of ten would have said that no man or
woman could be gull enough to be taken
In by such bait as this; nevertheless sew
eral parties sent the stamps, entered into
particulars of the station of life in which
they moved, and indicated the kind of
presents that would be acceptable One
young lady stated that she was about to
go to bal. and no doubt believed that
she would either get silk dress or a pair
of diamond bracelets by return post.
