Mr.. lanes Brannan, Second avenue,
Pittsburgh, Pa, writes 4" For two years
I have Been constantly troubled with
chronic diarrhra, or dysentery, having
had, on an average, from twenty to
twenty five passages every twenty -four
hours, and every one bloody. had
thoroughly tried all the prominent ply.
sicians In Pittsburgh, was twice In the
West Penn Hospital, the first time thir.
teen weeks, and though ! left II much
better, vet In five days was % bad %
ever. then tried two other great doc.
tors in this city, and one of them finally
assured me was not long for this world,
and advised me to write to my friends
about it. I next went to DR.. Hartman,
without the least confidence that he could
do anything for me. He examined me,
smiled, and said, he could stop the bloody
discharges In less than two weeks, which
he aid with PERuNA, and I have now
been entirely well for several weeks, and
never felt better In my III though am
still taking his PERuNA. I will take Il
whenever need medicine.
Mr.. Patrick Burns, Pittsburgh, writes !:
II have suffered intensely from piles and
chronic diarrh9a. was treated by five
of the best physicians and surgeons In
the city of Pittsburgh, and with all grew
constantly worse. Finally three Of them
said my only hope was an operation.
This frightened me, and went immedi-
ately to DR.. Hartman, who has entirely
cured me with PERuNA. I have been at
work now for three months, and never in
my life felt better. Call and see me at
corner of Twenty seventh and Mulberry
streets, Twelfth ward, Pittsburgh"
Mr.. Patrick Cunningham, 8. s., near
Sidney street, Pittsburgh, Pa, writes :
"For five years have suffered inexpress.
IDLY from internal and external piles.
have tried the best physicians Of Pitts
burgh and Allegheny without relief
went to DR.. Hartman, who cured me
without detention from work with PE~
RUNA."
Charles Frank, Of Emrichville, Jeffer-
son county, Ohio, writes I had piles
and fstula in ano for four years. l had
suffered constantly with discharge Of
matter from the parts, and sometimes
from the contents Of the bowels through
it. I could not have borne it much
longer. had heard SO much Of the i'll
effects Of knife operation that resolved
to go to DIR. Hartman. He ridiculed the
silly idea Of cutting it, and at once per.
formed his own original operation with.
out the knife, and withou pain. l am
thoroughly cured, though Q course I took
PrRrNA"

The StatiOn-liouse.

p. Drifsky was arrested last night, by
officer Condron, for lettering around other
persons premises. The charge OF lettering Is
merely preteIt tor holding him, the real
cause for bis arrest being the su picion that
he is the person that recently escapted from
the asylum at Dayton. Mike Conners filled
up with bad whisky, last night, and, in.
vadlug the sacred prcincts of "Welshe's
Arcade" proceeded to make Rome howl.
Welsh himself aud q colored man who was
present, both tell victims to Connors merry
mood, who amused himself by knocking
them out OF time, until the officers arrived
and totk him TO the station house. Mike re-
ceived a sentence of 81 and costs from the
Mayor, this morning. Charles Delzig was
run in last evening on plain drunk. Sam
Cannon iell victim, about the same time,
to his mania for lettering. These four were
the only arr sts made last night.

A book has recently been published in
which it is said that the author adyo-
Gates the right and duty OF admitting
women to the plumbing as well as the
medical profession. 1t is proper that
women should study medicine in order
to be able to take care OF their own
health and that Of others of their sex it
is equally proper that women should
study plumbing in order to protect the
health of members OF their own house,
hold. Doubtless this idea will meet
with favor among progressive women,
and before long we shall have female
students Of plumbing as well rs female
students of medicine.
There is no insuperable physical OBJ
stacle in the wav ri tho nrs"ti"a "s

plumbing by women. A woman could
call at the house where pipes are fro
zen. and inform the household of her
acquicscence in the theory that frost
will freeze water pipes almost as well
as man could accomplish the same
feat. She could send an assistant fe-
male plumber to the shop for tools; she
could 60 home to dinner as soon as the
tools arrived, and later in the day she
could tear up the floor in the bath
room, and break the plastering in a
businesslike way. The matter OF
'wiping joint" or of soldering a fau-
Get is not beyond the physical ability Of
woman, although, of course, she would
burn her fingers and set the house on
fire with greater ease than a man.. She
could not take longer to do job than
does the male plumber, and in all prob
ability she would be less densely ignor-
ant of all the laws of hygienic plumb
ing.
Still, woman could not be a sue
cessful plumber, for the reason that no
person possessed of less than $1,000
600 could afford to employ her. Wo-
man has far more Imagination than
man, and in making out plumbers
bill she would give free run to her i'm
agination. Already the bills of plumb
ers represent the highest flights of the
masculine imagination, but they would
be left far behind by the bills of female
plumbers. The male plumber has in
his opinion, reached the utmost limits
in the invention of items with which to
swell his bill, but he still adheres to
the rules of arithmetic and adds up his
columns correctly. The woman who
can add up a column Of figures correct
ly has not yet appeared, for the fem
inine conception OF the sum of twelve
and fifteen is thirty-six. In other
words, woman adding up column
makes the result at least one-fourth
greater than it should be. A woman
could take the bill of items presented
by male plumber, and by simply add
ing the items together could increase
the total amount fully one-fourth. 1t
is this peculiarity of the feminine intel
lect that will ever prevent women from
succeeding as plumbers, for the femin-
inc plumbing bill would in all cases be
SO enormous that householder, soon
er than run the risk of having it pre-
sented to him, would tear up all his
water-pipes and substitute beer for wa
ter, both as beverage and as u means
of cleanliness. Y. Times.

New Orleans-"New Awlns" as they
call it here-is not an imposing city.
Much of its area is three or four feet
below the Mississippi river, which
forms double crescent like the letter
S. The distance back to Lake Pont-
chartrain is about four miles, the west
end being the summer resort on the
lake. The famous "shell road' is the
avenue in this direction. Within the
city the wider streets are lined with
trees and grass in the center. All
kinds of outlandi, h names abound.
When you hear what sounds like
"Chapetula street be sure to ask how
it is spelled, and you will learn that it
is "Tchoupitoulas." In the narrow
streets, and indeed in some of the wider,
small streams of dirty water issue from
the houses and stores and run for rods
before they seek the under-surface
canals, whence the contents are
pumped into the Lake Pontchartrain.
The pavements are of great blocks,
poorly laid, over which the broad-axled
cotton vans are constantly making
racket. Several lite e open spaces are
digniiied with the name of squares, one
OF them-formerly the circle being
named after the monument toJIee, and
another bearing the name of Jackson,
the president. Along the narrow side
walks ladies are strolling in summer
attire, while the diminutive policemen
look on as if they were in dread lest
some street fracas should call them in
to active work. The horse cars are
filled with smokers as.they trundle
lazily along after the single mule har-
messed with cheap arrangement Of
ropes. The business blocks of New
Orleans are inferior. The theaters are
reminders OF those in Havana and
Mexico, the fashionable part is the bal
cony, and no lady ever goes into the
parauet. The st. Louis cathedral is a
plain stone building that is hardly
worth a visit. The cemeteries are OF
great interest, the Lafayette, one Of the
Oldest, is inclosed with Il high stone
wall, and the entrance to 1t is through
a narrow gateway. The graves are all
above ground, as they are in all the
New Orleans cemeteries, and the little
burial houses are so close together,
that it looks impossible to find room
for another body. An enterprising man
has Just erected tomb in which he
will let spaces for the burial of single
BODIES. Narrow walks wind among
these dweling-houses Of the dead, with
which the entire inclosure is filled. The
| inscriptions show that the occupants
came from the French provinces. st.
Charles street is the fashionable ave-
nue. for residences. Nearly all of them
| are built of wood at an elevation, to

AS lawyer MIR. Lincoln never at
taincd the high rank and reputation OF
Evarts, Brady, Seward, Carpenter, or
Webster. He never had their kind OF
practice. nor did he have fifty thousand
dollars rs Il retainer, or great city
press to report his speeches TO the mill
ion. His largest fee was $4,000 in Il
railroad case.
Although notably successful, his pc,
culiar strength lay in his reasoning of
facts more than the law he cited. Few
men ever lived with broader grasp OF
human nature and clearer way OF ex-
| planning things. This came to him by
his genius and intuition. and that early
battle with poverty OF resources to
gain wisdom that gave him a marvel
Gus memory OF all he learned.
| A large. ungraceful anne, that to 9TH

the merits and mastery OF the right
theory to win with. made him power
ful advocate before jury. His man
ner was SO plain that 1t enforced at
tention; his eyes were piercing, his
look so earnest, his words so apt while

came convinced by his reasoning One

enemies, fifteen minutes later they
were cheering him ike friends. he
put clear reason IN all that ne SAID,
and cllnched 1t by an incident that car
ried conviction straight to the hearts
OF his hearers. His Keen, quaint, crisp
stories were only side-hghts to bring
out his word-painting in bolder relief
