 The office seekers are undergoing re newed disappointment. When the news went out that the closing days of the cur rent fiscal year would witness an onslaught upon federal office holders, men who had in the early days of the new regime filed applications for office for themselves and friends, hurried back to the capitol, confi- hdent that their wishes were about to be gratiied. They say now the administra- ton is as much disposed to take its own
 time as ever. Nothing in the nature of a

At the meeting of the Homeopathic Medical Society at the Ophthalmic Hos pital, Drs. Lilienthal, Ball, Belcher and Hallock all spoke highly of camphor as a remedy for cholera, especially in the early stages of the disease. Instances were given in. which extraordinary doses had been taken with excellent results. Dr.. Lilienthal said that when the epidemic of cholera was raging in Europe on one oc- easioa 1000 people each of whom carried chest, all escaped m the disease, although m ex. posed as much as others who died by the score. Dr. Schley counselled the people to avoid excesses in labor, food and drink, and exercise. He said that the drinking of brandy in the hope of avoiding diar- rhoea would be especially bad, but for a person accustomed to moderate drinking to stop entirely would be bad also.

Things were brought to me in pretty basket; they took one article and fastened 1t around my body, then another which they passed over my head, forcing my arms through two holes, then another and another, aud finally one so long that I lost my other end. Then they put each foot of mine in little bag, after which they told me to stand up like man and go and see my mother.
