Another Life Saved (!
A Student at Montpelier Strick-
en- With Bright's Disease.
RESCUED BY DIR. GAGE.

Probably no physician in New England
enjoys such an enviable reputation for the
cure of long standing complicated chronic
diseases As ooes DR.. Gage the noted
specialist of 26 West 3lst street, New
York. His success in this part of the
country is indeed phenomenal, and his
cures are unsurpassed by any man living
He makes no idle boasts, nor does he hold
out false hopes to the afflicted but he is
regular in his visits, honest and frank in
all his dealings, and does not attempt
cases unless he feels sure of success. The
evidence of his skill is not far fetched. as
our citizens well know but is in our midst,
perhaps one of the most wonderful cures
yet reported is that of the student Of this
village, who, in February last, was srck-
en- with Brights Disease of the Kidneys.
After treatment by Montpelier physicians
he was r.msved to his home in Hardwick
to die, as they supposed. The excretions
from the Kidneys We're thick with Albu-
men, and he became terribly bloated, and
SO feeb that he could scarcely raise his
head from the pillow Finally council
of physicians from Montpelier and Hard
wick gave the patient up as beyond all
help At this juncture q messenger was
dispatched to lay the case befo-e Dr.
Gage, who, thinking it was too late, re-
luctan.ly consented to treat the case with
out seeiug the patient. A happy deter
mination it was for the remedies seemed
to act like a charm from the first, and the
patient has so far recovered a. to feel GER
tain that he has new lease OF life. Last
week he came down to Montpelier to see
the man who has been linstru mental in al
most snatching him from the grave and

ABOUT REJECTED MANUSCRIPT.

Funny Story Concerning Couple Of
POems-value of Perseverance.
1t stands to reason that the experienced
writer who has outgrown any morbidity that
can be produced by a rejected manuscript i'm
mediately tears off the wrapper upon its re-
turn, readdresses it and sends it once more
upon the road. The result is very apt to be
satisfactory Mrs. Clara Doty Bates tells a
funny story of the fate of two of the first
poems she ever sent for publication. They
were forwarded to religious magazines stimuli
taneously, and simultaneously they returned,
so she reversed the addresses and sent them
away again. They were both accepted, and
brought $40 apiece. Many professional writ
ers keep book, and under the name of each
article write the list of magazines to which it
has been sent, that they may not forward it
twice to the same editor, and then keep it
going till it finds a resting place.
There is one writer of this city who has
tried daring game with marked success.
When manuscript which his Judgment told
him was really good was rejected by favor
lite paper, he kept it quietly awhile and then,
trusting to the forgetfulness of the editor,
sent it back again. happier mood, or a
better dinner, or one Of those mysterious
chances which govern the fate of manuscripts
conspired to its acceptance.
Any magazine of high position is much af-
fronted if it receives an article which it dis
covers to have been rejected by some rival
periodical. Most of them. and it may be all
of them, have some cabalistic little mark
which they use in various ways, and now and
then it can be found upon the leaves of re-
turned manuscript. The experienced contrib
utor knows this and never sends manuscript
away a second time without first carefully
examining the pages. The fact that one edi-
tor rejects and another accepts an article, il
should be borne in mihd is no reflection on
the judgment of either. What is in keeping
with the tone of one publication is quite I'M
suited to another. It is mistaken idea too
to suppose that magazine editors will not take
a manuscript unless it bears the name of
well known writer This is an obvious alb
surdity, for how, then, could those well
known writer's have first become known.
The enterprising editor is always on the alert
for strong, fresh writers whose names they
may have the credit of introducing. Chicago

the same motley collection of semi barbaric

THE CASTLE AND THE CHURCH.
At the top of Katalan's rock, on the edge
Of the sea- stands the Colonial castle. 1t is a
huge wooden structure, looking more like a
barrack than castle. At the foot of the
rock are the barracks and custom house. A
thin sprinkling of Marines few foreign
looking, citizens-the full-fedged Rusk of the
unmistakable type is hard to find nowadays
and troupes of Indians give semblance of
life to this quarter. At the top of the street
stands the Russian Orthodox church, and this
structure. with its quaint tower and sphe, is
really the lion of the place. st. Michaels was
dedicated in 1874 by the venerable Ivan Ven,-

saw in a woods back of the town an i'm
mense log. 1t was in the primeval forest,
and below it were layers Of other logs lying
crosswise and in confusion. know not how
far below me was the solid earth, for mats of
thick moss and deep beds Of dead leaves filed
the nollows between the logs; but this log,
nearly three feet in diameter, was above
them all, and out of it-from seed no
doubt imbedded in the bark-had sprung a
tree that is to-day as great in girth as the log
that lies PROSTATE beneath its roots These
mighty roots have clasped that log in an ever
lasting embrace and struck down into the soil
below. You can conjecture how long the log
has been lying there in that tangle of mighty
roots-yet the log is to-day as sound a bit of
timber as one is likely to find anywhere

Prince Krapotkine's Brother.

Alexander Krapotkine, who was prosecuted
by the Russian government into committing
suicide at Tomsk last month, was brother
of the we'll known Prince Peter Krapotkine.
Although only 45 years old, he had translated
many great English works into Russian, and
was one of the foremost astronomers and me-
teorologists in Russia. After his return from
exile in Siberia the government forbade him
to enter any university town, to COM
municate with any institution Of learning,
or to pursue further his scientific work; and
this drove him to despair. Chicago Times.
