For NEARLY "a YEARS have been a victim
of Catarrh. I have tried many remedies, re-
ceiVing little or no relief. I bought one bottle
of Ely'ss Cream Balm and derived more real
benefit from that than all the rest added to-
tsether. You can recommend it as being a safe
and valuable medicine.-A. L. FULLER, Dandy,

The conductor of "a white line car
was leaning in the rear door talking
loudly to friend about man having
taken Sc belonging to him. He in
tended to have him arrested and put
behind bars. The language and tone
used by the conductor were not rel
ished by the passengers. At last
one gentleman looked up from his
paper and said:
81 wouldn't have that man arrest
ed if I were you.''
I" Why not?"
ooh, well, you might not be able
to prove it, and get yourself into
trouble. A man took SIS of my
money last night before my eyes and
I shan't have him arrested"
"Why, how was that?"
he held four aces concluded
the passenger, resuming his paper
amid the audible smiles of all in the
car.

And a boat to bear me wi my love

AMONG TIE sIAMEsE.

General Haldeman, the smcrican Min
lister TO Siam, who has Just returned from
that far off country on leave of absence,
brings with him the best of records if not
the best of health. He has proved him
self admirably well qualified to deal with
the willy Orentalsat Bangkok, and during
the term of his consular and diplomatic
service there has done not only far more
than was ever done before, but il is scarce
an exaggeration to say, all that ever was
done, toward the establishment of Amcri-
can prestige i'm Siam on an Intelligent and
permanent foundation.
h The Siainese monarch is n somewhat
difficult person TO deal with, like all of the
tropical and semi barbaric AsiatiCs, being
fair of promise but feeble of performance,
and yet ,of shrcwdness enough to always
look for the best end of q bargain. With
y populous harem to engage most of his
royal attention, he cannot be expected to
devote much of his time to affairs of state;
yet Minister Halderman seems to have
duly impressed him with the greatness of
the United states and the importance of
friendly relations between the two coun-
tres.
IL was through General Haldcrman
that an infamous system of river traffic in
rum, under the alleged protection of the
American flag, was broken up, much to
the satisfaction of the King if not of his
thirsty subjects, and greatly to the en-
hancement of the Minister'S credit among
The better Siamese classes.
Minister Haldernan furthermore sue
cccded in procuring from the King deel
in fee simple Of valuable property at
Bangkok for the use of the American
legation which is the first instance in
which q similar gift has been conveyed to
ibe United States by foreign power.
He could doubtless have done much
more towards planting the seeds of Anglo
Saxon civilization in the East had he been
more vigorously supplemented in his eff
forts by the late Administration, but the
continuance of the work which he has so
well begun will devolve upon others.
General Halderman has no hankcring for
any more Of the same sort of exile. The
climate is trying, the people are not agree
able as constant companions, and aS for
social and educational advantages, there
arc none; yet to younger man Of good
business aptitude and "A literary turn. o!
mind, disposed to write up his experiences
at this oriental court, a residence at Bang
kok might he made exceedingly useful as
well rs profitable. Nobody wants to stay
there long enough however to get accli'
mated. Acclimation in Siam means to be
brought home in casket at the Govern
ment's expense and received in the United
States by committee.
Possibly some other sphere Of diplomatic
service may he found for General Halder-
man, should he desire it, but he is proba-
bly, willing for the present to rest upon his
laurels and reconstruct his liver.
