more than twenty years, and for the

what is called Writer'S Cramp, or
Telegrapher's Paralysis. At times my
arm became so weak that l could not use
it in sending dispatches, and had to use
my left. Have spent many restless
nights, the pain reaching rom my hand
up into my shoulder. Tried everything
l could hear of, but with scarcely m
relief. Having strained my left side a
few weeks ago, | got one of Allcock's
Plasters. as | usually do in such cases,
and accidentally happened to see where
some one had cured a weak wrist by
using cne of these PIasters. l got
another at once and cut it IN two aud

entirely left my wrist and arm, and in
two weeks | could send nearly as well as

RUNNING A FURNACE.
A Modern Improvement Which Is Not All ar
Improvement

A Modern Improvement Which Is Not An an
Improvement.
Boston Transcript.
There are few things in this world so easy as
running a furnace.
That is what Jones thought when he put his
in last fall; though. to tell the truth. the opinion
was not original with Jones. 1t was suggested
to Jones, in the first place, by the man who sold
the furnace, but Jones received the opinion as a
sort of chrome thrown in with the furnace and
utilized 1T as though it were his own property,
as indeed it was
The first time that Jones attempted to build a
ire IN his new furnace. he succeeded admirably
In making roaring blaze with the kindlings, in
blackening his hands and face and transmitting
himself into the semblance of burnt-cork sere-
nader OF the Megatherium of Senegambian va
riety, and in driving the family incontinently
from the house by that peculiarly pungent oder
which is sent forth by heated stove polish fresh
from the shop but he was not so successful in
accomplishing fire.
The kindlings behaved in most praiseworthy
manner, allowing themselves to be consumed to
the uttermost splinter, but they failed miserably
IN transferring their warmth to the coal which
Jones had very literally shoveled atop of them.
In fact, when the flames had finished the kind
lngs, they appeared to have considered their part
OF the contract completed, and unceremoniously
went out about their business elsewhere
Then Jones proceeded to fill his hair and cover
his clothing with dust by of the shaker,
which the dealer had assured Jones could be
operated without raising sufficient dust to soil a
lady's pocket handkerchief. Unfortunately
Jones did not have lady's pocket handkerchief
with him at the time, or he would perhaps have
demonstrated to the world that whereas this
shaker might be somewhat careless in regard to
the person and clothing of great horrid man,
it was eminently punctilious in its regard for the
pocket handkerchief of the fair sex.
But however it might have been with the
supposititious handkerchief aforesaid there could
be no doubt about the possibilities of that
shaker in the dust-raising line so far as Jones
and his environment were concerned. The dust
not only covered his exterior. but his ears and
nose, and mouth were crowded with it. His
teeth Were as full of grit as game cock, and at
every inhalation the carboniferous deposits in
his lungs grew more dense.
Jones got the thing cleaned out at last, hut his
natural beauty was not improved by the expert

''There are many people in New York, said
Colonel Brooks, of the internal revenue service.

that they are buying smuggled cigars, when
they are really getting the cheapest domestic

a matter of fact, there are very few foreign CT
CARS struggled into this country There are too
many risks, in the first place, and then the pen
atty is nearly always enforced The majority of
contraband cigars that are brought to the United

s.You would be surprised to know how many
people in New York are induced to buy alleged
smuggled cigars, and in most cases they are bad

"An operator in alleged struggled cigars dis
plays considerable genius in his makeup for his
part He first stains his hands and face, and
then puts on an old suit of sailors clothing. He
buys box of the cheapest cigars he can find,
takes them from the box and rolls them up in
a newspaper. He then gets q good fifteen or
twenty cent cigar, which he puts in with the
other cigars Thus equipped, with "a fresh lot of
imported cigars that have never paid any duty
he starts out in search of customer. To his
victim he whispers the words struggled very
cheap and then, pulling out the good cigar,
says Try one Of course it smokes all right,
and the victim is tempted to take the whole lot at
$40 ahundred or similar price. when they actu-
ally cost less than two cents apiece.
"Swindlers make it practice Of handling a
little better quality of cigars. They buy domes-
tic grades for eight ten cents apiece, and then
retail them among their customers for from Is
to % cents straight. These men have their reg

their cigars. They sell very fair cigars. but
their customers pay them three times what they
are worth, because. as they imagine they are
