CataHh TO CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to
and undoubtedly leads on to consumption. 1t is
therefore singular that those afflicted with this
fearful disease should not make it the object of
their lives to rid themselves of it, Deceptive reme-
dies concocted by ignorant pretenders to medical
knowledge have weakened the confidence of the
great majority Of sufferers in all advertised reme-
dies. They become resigned to life of misery
rather than torture themselves with doubtful pal.
latives.
But this will never do. Catarrh must be met at
every stage and c0mbatted with all our might. In
many cases the disease has assumed dangerous
symptoms: The bones and cartilage of the nose the
organs OF hearing, of seeing and of tasting so af-
fected as to be useless, the uvula elongated the
throat so nfamed and irritated as to produce a
constant and distressing cough.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE meets every phase
Of Catarrh, from simple head cold TO the most
loathsome and destructive stages. 1t is local and
constitutional. Instant in relieving, permanent in
curing, safe, economical and never falling
Each package contains one bottle of the RADI-
CAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL SOLVENT, and an

was troubled with catarrh for seven years
previous to commencing the use of Ely's Cream

what other so-called cures failed TO do-cured me.

Anag Fires q Big Gun.

Sunday at about 0 AN. the entire gar
rison at Fort Keogh turned out at the
alarm of the big gun, which is only used
10 times of fire. Immediately after the
alarm Of the big gun, bang, bang, went
the muskets OF tho sontrics, and al ives
confusion, CONSERVATION and alarm until
the case was explained. The big gun
is always kept in readiness, loaded and
primed, but the lanyard is usually colicd
upon the breech Of the gun. On this
particular morning the wind happened
i be blowing pretty hard and dislodged
the lanyard, which was waited about by
the breeze. A couple of garrison dogs
were playing in that neighborhood, and
in the exuberance of his spirits one little
dog spied the string, seized it with his
teeth and pulled on it briskly, discharg
ing the gun. There is one playful ca
nine at that post not likely to fool with
gun for some time. The explosion
caused him to stick his tail between his
legs and fly, yelping AZ every Jump =

SnmnamhuIism.

The phenomena of somnambulism and
their connection with the nerve-centers
have not been satisfactorily accounted
for. They probably depend primarily,
says the Lancet, upon directing i'm
pulse of sensory origin. Some Of our
actions often become by practice SO
nearly automatic that partial sleep n
stupor does not arrest their unconscious
performance. In somnambulism the in
tcllert and controlling will are torpid,
while the sensori-motor man whom they
should govern is awake and active. Az
in dreams the intelligent scnsorium is
alone drowsily active, with possibly a
noticeable tendency to restless movement,
so there may be other states of dreaming,
in which the ccntcrs of motion arc stimu-
lated to more powerfulbut unconscious
action. Partial counteractives to SOM
nainbulism may be found in throwing OFT
worries, and in the proper regulation Of
evening meals. --Popular Science Monthly.

FARM AND GARDEN.
How to Manage Poultry Manure

The subject of the care OF pouig =
manure was discussed at meeting
the Pennsylvania State Board OF Ne icl q.
ture, when it was advised: Fir To
allow the droppings to remain in or near
tho poultry-house, and at regular inter
walls sprinkle plaster or dry soil over
them in order to prevent loss by evapora-
rion. Sufficient dry soil ahould be added
10 keep the pile moist and prevent it dry
Eng up so as to render the application 10
the crop difficult. Sccond-To gather
up the droppings at intervals and place
them in tight barrels, being careful to
cover each layer with plaster, dry soil or
road dust. When ready for application,
when dry, it may be mixed with vary
sng amount of soil and allowed to lie I'M
I'll the whole is moist enough to crumble
readily, when, by shoveling overt a few
tlnses, the mixture can be easily and
readily applied to the crop. Either of
ehese plans will prevent loss by evapora-
ton and attain the same end. No plan
was proposed where poultry is not kept
under shelter, but it was decided that
the increased value of the droppings
would soon pay for roof.
