nauseous and disgusting ills the flesh is heir

any of the multitudes of modes of treat
ment until the introduction of Ely's Cream
Balm a few years ago. The success of the
preparation has been most gratifying and

The old story of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea, gets new Illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria. The
story is soon told: My daughter" said a
lady, had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was all the time out of
health-pOOr appetite, disordered digestion,
pale earthly color. pain i'll the head, limbs
and back, and every now and then right
hard chill, followed by fever. Then we
would send for our doctor and he would
prescribe quinine, Just as he did from the
first-and so kept doing all alOng-u It'll the
name of quinine sounds like the tOlling of
the bell. Clearly between the two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name is
varied, and it is called some other 'ine' in
place of 9uinine, but it is all the same-the
old firm with new sign. In this dilema
lady friend said: Why not try Humph
rey's Homeopathic Specifies, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen tried them. They were sue
cess from the first, and not only cured the
malaria, but restored her to perfect health,
and left no trace of disease or drug pOis-

A Novel Fly Theory.

Flies are Scavengers, and only enter, at
least take up their abode in, dwellings from
which the sunlight and air are wholly or
largely barred out Even screens are objec-
tionable, for il is impossible for air to enter as
freely as through a wide-open window; be-
sides, the creatures will get in by hook or
crook, and wnen they have endured the
stuffy indoor air as long As they can with
due regard for their health(g and sigh for
the pure atmosphere without, they are kept
in by the screens to which they cling and do
their best to obtain fresh air by breathing
with their noses through the meshes, while
the human inmates, starving and poisoning,
growing weak ana predisposed to sickness,
are content with the devitalized air ss their
only respiratory food, like drinking from .
stagnant pool
The truth is that the sunlight and fresh
air, if allowed the freest entrance to any
home, will shortly leave nothing for the dies
to do, and these little friends will simply
make occasional excursions, singly or in
pairs, to inspect the premises, not resting
even to disfigure the paint; while the main
body of the army will make their too often
unsuccessful fight against diphtheritic virus
in the homes Whose indwellers restrict them
selves to quarter rations OF oxygen and prefer
darkness rather than light.
Sufferers from headache, sleepiness, lassi-
tude, or other of the ordinary slight all
ments" that, however, so often develop into
serious and even fatal sickness may be
certain that their troubles arise largely, if
not chiefly, from the wrong conditions indi-
Gated in the foregoing.
The writer happens to know Of a few, a
very few inhabited dwellings, where visitors
remark upon the almost entire absence of
flies, and appear perplexed to account for it,
seeing no means for their exclusion. In
those homes the ever wide-open windows are
never blinded, the shades are run up out Of
sight, and never a screen detains the fly
police when they have concluded their round
of inspection DR.. C. E Page

The Ute papoose when quite young
is placed in a buckskin or rawhide re-
ceptacle with straight board back. The
buckskin opens down the center of the
front. The papOose is placed in it, and
the edges of the buckskin are drawn
tightly together by buckskin thongs, as
you would lace shoe. The child's
arms are pinioned down its side; no part
of the body can be moved except the
head, which can be rolled slightly from
side to side. Straps are attached to the
board TO enable the squaw to sling it
across her back or hang it in the
branches of tree. You very seldom hear
a Ute papoose cry. / have seen the little
things standing up against tree in the
broiling sun in one of these barbarous
strait jacket receptacles. The flies were
crawling in and out the corners of its eye
and mouth, great tears were chasing
each other down its cheeks, but not a
whimper nor sound was heard.
They are kept laced up in this way, ex-
cept at short intervals, until they are
large enough to learn to walk. They are
taught TO ride horse almost before they
begin to walk, and it is curious to see the
little things, often three or four on one
horse, and clinging TO his back and TO
each other with the tenacity of monkeys.
The children of 5 years old and up are
often bedecked with war paint and bead
and silver ornaments until they are
scarcely recognizable. Great silver rings
are suspended from their ears, silver
plates three ana four inches in diameter
hang upon the breast. Three, four, and
sometimes five pairs of silver bracelets,
of Navajo designs, adorn the arms.
Beaded buckskin mOccasins, a bright
little Navajo blanket, otter skin trim
mings in the hair, rings upon the fingers,
brass OF silver armlet above the elbow,
and several necklaces of beads, VOLTS

width and gorgeously worked with
beads, and you have a Ute child dressed

PAwSING HER BOYS CLOTHES FOR MED
ICISE. A poor woman in Wales, whose
boy had been very i'll for several years, had
expended all of her means to pay for medi-
cine. At last the doctors gave him up and
said he must die. He suffered so terribly
with rheumatism that he could not be
moved. One day some one told her about
the Mount Lebanon Shakers. The evidence
of the curative powers of their Extract of
Roots was so convincing that she pawntd
the poor boys clothes to buy bottle of the
remedy (Siegel's Syrup, but now she feels
proud that size did so, for it was the means
Of curing her son. The Shakers say that
this is the result of Indigestion and that the
medicine cured the dyspepiia, and that the
rheumatism was only symptom of the
real disease.

TIES FOR ONE MILE.

How many ties does it take for one
mile Of road, Mr.. Donoghue''
Twenty six hundred. We watch the
road closely, and as the old ones become
useless we take them out and put in the
new. We do not commence on q mile
track or a section of track and put in
ties, beginning at one end, but our aim
is 10 keep up q uniform soundness from
one end of the road TO the other. Some
roads adopt the plan Of skipping ties in
spiking the rails TO them, but / find this
impracticable and dangerous. Every
tie should be spiked on both sides OF the
rail. Old ties are taken possession of by
the section men, who convert them into
frewood.
Tiles are hauled to us frequently
from q distance Of fifteen miles from the
track, eight or ten ties being the average
load.
"Ties are just as much Of O commod-
ity almost as wheat or corn. There are
few general merchandise dealers along
the line who do not trade for ties, and
they all make a good profit. In the first
place they have a profit on their goods
and will sell tie for an advance Of at
least five cents on what they paid for ties
in trade. We are Low loading and ship
ping away almost as fast as we receive
them"
On account Of the extensive use of
trestles in bridging over low places by
railroads the pile business has also grown
in great proportions These are cut
from huge logs, barked and hauled TO the
track. They are generally about eight
cen inches through, thirty feet long, and
one of them delivered on the car costs
f3.79. The ties on this sort Of structure
are all sawed, and cost $i4 per I 600 feet.
Tie and pile makers make but little
money-an expert chopper cannot get
out more than fifteen ties in day He
gets II cents each for these, so that he
would make only s1,o5 per day, and it is
the tie trader, not the maker, who coins
the money. Chicago Tribune.
