He tried to negotiate a loan Of few

Is a barber, Offering his note to be
shaved, but Disconsolate told him that
he shaved chias, not notes. Finally,
things came to that pass that Gus just
had to have money, so ne went once
more to Disconsolate Jones. This time
he felt sure Of success. for he carried
his ivory-handled pistol with him. Dis
consulate was waiting for a customer,
and after he dressed Gus wool. and put
some hair-oil on it, the latter offered to
sell the barber an ivory-handled pistol.
''Disconsolate Jones. give me two
dollars and de pistol am yours said
Gus.
''G'way, niggah; hits agin de law to

But you needs pistol when you

'G'way niggah;n and just then a Gus
toner came in to have his chin scraped,
which ended the negotiations.
Strange to say, that very night, on
his way home. Disconsolate Jones was
attacked by an unknown man. who
kicked and mauled him, robbed him OF
all his loose change, and fled in the
darkness without uttering a word. Next
morning before Gus White was up he
was called on by Disconsolate Jones,
who told him the story of his woes.
II done told yesterday yer mout be

Diseonsolate Jones paid over the
money and took the pistol. As soon as
he got the pistol he examined it. put it
in his pocket, and earelessly picking up
a chair, he whacked Gus White at n
furious rate.
''Dah, said the breathless Disconso-
late, compelling Gus TO return the
stolen money and also the price of the
pistol, ''de next time you wants ter rob

NASAL VOICES, cATARRa AND
FALSE TEETH

A promirent English woman says
the American women all have high,
shrill, nasal voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant
twitting they get about this nasal
twang, and yet it Is TACT caused by
our dry stimulating atmosphere, and
the universal presence of catarrhal
difficulties.
But Why should SO many of our
women have false teeth2
That is more of poser to the Eng
lish. 1t is quite impossible to account
Tor It except on the theory of deranged
stomach action caused by imprudenee
IN eating and by want of regular ex-
ercise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrh troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption,
which are promoted by NAL nutrition
induced by deranged stomach action.
The condition is modern one, one
unknown TO our ancestors who pre-
vented the catarrh, cold, cough and
consumption by abundant and regu-
lar use of what is now known as
Warmers Log Cabin cough and con-
sumption remedy and Log Cabin
sarsaparilla, two old fashioned stand
ard remedies handed down from our
ancestors, and now exclusively put
forth under the strongest guarantees
of purity and efficacy by the world
famed makers of Warmers safe cure.
These two remedies plendfully used
as the fall and winter seasons advance,
together with an occasional use of
Warmers Log Cabin rose cream, to
strengthen and protect the nasal menu
branes, give positive assurance Of
freedom, both from catarrh and those
dreadful and if neglected, inevitable
consequences, pneumonia, lung
troubles aud consumption, which so
generally and fatally prevail among
our people
Comrade Eli Fisher, OF Salem,
Henry Co., Iowa, served four years in
the late war and contracted disease
called consumption by the doctors.
He had frequent hemorrhages. After
using Warmers Log Cabin cough and
consumption remedy, he saws, under
date of January 19sh, 1888: al do
not bleed at the lungs any more, my
cough does not bother me, and | do
net have any more smothering spells. .
Warmers Log Cabin rose cream cured
his wife of catarrh aud she is "sound
and we'll"
OF course we do not like to have
our women called nose takers and
false teeth owners, but these condi-
tions can be readily overcome in the
manner indicated.

Movements That Are of Great Value In
Developing the Lungs.

DeFelopinE the Lungs.
Standing as erect as possible, with
shoulders thrown back and chest for
ward, the arms hanging close TO the
BODY, the head up. with lips firmly
,losed, inhalation is to be taken as
slowly as may be; at the same time the
extended arms are to be gradually
raised, the back of the hands upward,
until they closely approach each other
above the head. The movement should
be so regulated that the arms will be
extended directly over the head at the
moment the lungs are completely
illed- This position should be main
tanned from five to thirty seconds before
the reverse process is begun. AS the
arms are gradually lowered, the breath
is exhaled slowly. so that the lungs
shall be as nearly freed from breath as
possible at the time the arms again
reach the first position at the side BY
these movements the greatest expan-
sion possible is reached, for upon in
spiration the weight of the shoulders
and pectoral muscles are lifted, allow
ng the thorax to expand fully, while
ipon exhalation, in lowering the arms,
we utilize the additional force of the
pressure upon the upper thorax to
render expiration as complete as pos
sible. These deep respirations should
be repeated five or six times, and
the exercise gone through with
several times day. 1t is
hardly necessary TO remark that the
clothing must in no way interfere with
the exercise. In some cases this exer-
else is more advantageous when taken
lying flat ON the back, instead of stand
ing. In this position the inspiratory
muscles become rapidly strengthened
by opposing the additional pressure
exerted by the abdominal organs
against the expanding lungs. And, on
the other hand, expiration is more
perfect and full on account of the pres
,ure Of these organs. This is an exer-
