Can Consumption be Curcds

We have so often seen fatal results follow the declaration that it can be cured, that we have unconscious1y settled down in the belief that this disease must necessarily prove fatal. It is true that occasionally community has witnessed an isolated case of what may ap- propriately be termed spontaneous recovery, but to what combination of favorable circum- stances this result was due none have hitherto been found able to determine.
 We have now the gratifying fact to announce that the process by which nature effects this wonderful change is no longer mystery to the medical profession, and that the changes brought about in the system under favorable circumstances by intrinsic causes may be made as certainty and more expeditiously by the use of the proper remedy. In other words, nature is initiated and assisted.
 Tuberculous matter is nothing more or less than nourshment imperfectly organized. Now, if we can procure the organization of this food material so that through tie process of elective affinity it may take it's place in the system, we can cure the disease. This is just what Piso's Cure for Consumption does. It arrests at once the progress of the disease by preventing the further supply of tuherculous matter, for while the system is under it's in fuence all nourishment is organized and as- simulated. It thus controls cough, expectora-
 
 characteristic symptoms of Consumption.
 Many physicians are now using this modi- cine, and all write that it comes fully up to it's recommendations and makes Consumption one of the diseases they can readily euro.
 The forming stage of a disease is always the most suspicious for treatment. This fact should induce persons to resort to the use of Pso's Cure when the cough is first noticed, whether it has a consumptive diathesis for it's cause or not, for this remedy cures all kinds of coughs with unequalled facility and promptness. In coughs from 8 simple cold, two or three doses of the medicine have been found sufficient to remove the trouble. So in all diseases of the throat and lungs, with symptoms stimulating those of Consumption, Piso's Cure is the only infal- lible remedy.
 The following letter recommending Piso's Cure for Consumption, is a fair sample of the certificates received daily by the proprietor of this medicine:
 ALBION, N. Y., Dec. g, 1885. had terrible Cough, and two physicians said would never get we'll. I then went to a 1rug store and asked for good cough medicine The druggist gave me Pisos Cure, and it has done me more good than any thing. ever used. Ido not believe could live without it.

Caricatures Of American Speech.

After it was over I told him with the
candidness he had desired that his Amer
can limitations were by all odds the most
villainous, libelous caricatures of Amerl-
can speech that it had ever been my evil
fortune to listen to. He said, quite
good.naturedly, that he had long sus-
pected it, but that he did not intend to
change the style, as the people of Eng
land expected that sort Of thing, and OF
course he merely supplied a public de-
mand.-Cor. Detroit Free Press.

Tho Oldest Trade in the World.

The fur trade is the oldest in the world,
at least in point of mention, as it Is found
in Job, the Oldest of all books. The
beaver was in use in the fourth century,
being then called the Pontic dog. 1t is
said that the Russian conquest of Siberia
was prompted by the Importance of this
article, and the Siberian tribute was paid
in furs. In the twelfth century the art
of dyeing furs was invented and the
secret has been kept with such success
that the London dyers stand unrivaled.
Furs were then limited to the nobility as
a mark of rank, and no one was allowed
their use who did not spend 100 pounds
sterling year, which was then an i'm
mense sum. The profits of the business
have always been large, at least among
first hands.
The most valuable American fur is the
silver fox, which in some instances has
brought $50. They are sold in Europe,
and also in China, where they bring an
enormous price. The "Robe of Sta;c'
belonging to the British throne is lined
with sable which cost 1000 pounds sterl-
ing. AS our mink is q species of sable it
is often dressed SO rs to pass for the
genuine article. The largest fortune
ever made in the fur trade was Astor's,
and it is probable that he cleared 50, ,000,-
900 in this manncr.-Cincinnati En-
o,lirer.

has been appointed who has entered into
contracts with the sheep farmers for

annually for five years. A steamer has been
chartered by the company for the whole
of that period. She has the requisite
machinery and freezing rooms for frcez-

flesh of the Falkland island sheep is
superior to that of the Australian or

Collection Of Ancient Cloth Textures.

Herr Theodor Graf, the Persian carpet
merchant of the Schiller-platz, Vienna,
who treated for the purchase of Arch
duke Renters papyri in Egypt, and
brought that valuable COLLECTION to Aus
tria, has just completed a unique collec-
ton of Egyptian woollen and linen
cloths. 1t includes more than 300 specl-
mems, dating from the fourth to the
ninth centuries, and all in good preserva-
tion.. The specimens have almost all
been excavated from tombs, and it took
many years to collect, and clean them.
They are stitched on large and small
folios of cardboard with hy-leaves to
protect them from dust, and every frag-
ment can be easily and closely examined.
Some of the fragments are only foot
square, but the large specimens COM
prised an entire Roman toga, said to be
the only one extant, with purple clovi,
and a. great many embroidered dresses.
The collection is most interesting rs
showing not only samples of cloth tex
lures in every variety, but also of knit
ting, crewel work and needlework. That
which ladies call the double chain stitch
seems to have been as familiar to
Egyptian seamstresses sewing with bone
needles as it is to workers of the modern
sewing machine. The details of some of
the garments seem, further, to prove
that there is very little new under the
sun. There is chemise of the sixth
century which might be mistaken for a
modern jersey of navy blue serge, and it
is curious to find that the common blue
check pattern Of English household
busters and workhouse aprons was in
general use among the Egyptians more
than 1000 years ago.-Boston Tran

How to Address tho President.

The title of the president is simply
"The President" and when one addresses
him, the proper form is "Alr. President, I"
and not "Your Excellency." Mrs. Wash
ington always spoke of Gen. Washing
ton as 1.-The president" and to have called
him General" or Mr." would have been
in bad taste. An invitation from the
president is equal to a command. 1t
supersedcs all other invitations, whether
accepted or not, and demands an imme-
diate reply in writing to the president.
The form of address to dc used IS The
President: Sir" And the president i'll
answering never uses Yours traly," or
"Yorr obedient servant" but simply
signs his name.-Harpcr's Bazaar.

mo! to me, to mel" said q dozen
others, as each one stretched out his
hands toward the figure.
II have plenty for all, my friends, !"
said Charmide, with the placidity of a
triumph sought and obtained.
Each one was supplied, and the crowd
dispersed through the city, relating to
everybody the ingenious vengeance that
the potter had taken on the avaricious
belle:
When the street had become quiet
Chrysis, ashamed and yelled, glided cau-
tiously into the house of Charmide.
"Thou art cruel, young man." said she,
He interrupted her; "And thee! vast
not thou, when thou responded to my
advances by thy eternal refrain, Gold!
Gold!"
"Then thou lowest me no more?" said
she sadly, II who came to offer myself. !"
THAT which thou refused when i'm
plored? Thou art in fear of me now, and
it is to appease me that thou hast come.
No, Chrysis, I do not sell myself; and as
for thee, do not De afflicted; thanks to
the images of thy person that have cir
culated throughout the city, thy reputa-
ton can not be augmented. Thy lovers
will only be more numerous and ardent. u
"But people will laugh at me-"
"a little shame is soon swallowed; and
think of how much gold it will bring
thee!"
She turned her back, and regained her
dwelling.
When evening came, the potter di-
rected his steps toward the home of Nais.
"Nais," said Charmide, "will you come
with me, and I will model from thy
figure statues that chaste parents will
guard by their freside as the protecting
goddess of virtue"
The little fower-girl put her hand In
that of the artist, and in the obscurity OF
the fading twilight they exchanged vows
of betrothal.
Ages have passed, and the figure of
Chrysis still exists. Thus, as Charmide
prophesied, her reputation has gone
down to posterity.-Adopted from Henri
Greville.
