OPIUM SMUGGLING.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, Dec. 10. = The
Pioneer Press this morning says the
United States secret service officers here
are on the track of gigantic opium
sr1ygling conspiracy. They have
learned that an organized and well
equipped band of smugglers has for years
been! operating across the northwestern
border, bringing into the states the costly
and high fairfield drug. One of the gang
was arrested recently at Denver, and he
made a full confession. Acting ON the
information given by him, the deputy
collector of Minnesota went TO point
west of the Dakota line Wednesday
last and intercepted wagon
load of 500 pounds of opium
in crude form. The opium i'll the wagon
was concealed under Il layer of buffalo
hides. The whole outfit was seized and
the driver of the wagon was arrested.
Two government detectives left st. Paul
for the north last night. They are after
the man to whom the opium was con-
signed. He is waiting Mt some small
town IN Red River county for the stuff
and will probably be in the clutches of
the law before night. When his arrest
is accomplished they Will have the leader
of the gang and according TO reports one
of the smnrteSt and most dangerous of
border outlaws.

that had so TRANSPORTED her young face
at the ball was fxed upon it now Her
| lips parted slightly she seemed to muir
muir rather than speak:
''What are these people to us? What

dear? What is it what they think, what
they reckon, what they plan out, and

We love each ether, we belong to each
other, without their help or hindrance.
From the time we first saw each other
it was SO, and from that time paw and
NAV, and Seth and Masters, and even
you and me, dear, had nothing else to

Seth S sneaking RACES, and Uncle Ben
sneaking conceit, but only love. And
knowing that, let Seth rage, and Uncle
Ben dwadle, and Masters tritie-and for
what? To keep them from me and my
boy. They were satisfied, and we were
happy.
Vague and unreasoning as he knew her
speech to be, the rapt and perfect con-
viction with which it was uttered stag
gered him.
''But how is this to end, Cressy?" he
said passionately.
The distracted look passed and the
slight color and delicate mobility of her
face returned. ''To end, dandy boy?''
she repeated laZily. "'You didn't think
of marrying me-did you?''
He blushed, stammered, and said
''Yes;' albeit with all his past yascilla-
ton and his present distrust of her trans
parent ON his cheek and audible in his
voice.
''No, dear, - she said quietly, reach

keep a house fit for you, and you
couldn't afford to keep me without

it wouldn t be us two, dear, and our
lonely meetings any more. And we

perfectly palpable, ''no, that s what

John Nesbitt, general live stock agept
of the Chicago and Alton, has lately been
in Texas looking to the srrsngement'of
rates over Texas roads on shipments Of
sheep. A carload Of sheep to st. Louis
costs more than carload CT cattle to
Chicago under the present rates. Mr..
Nesbitt wants to have matters arranged
so that the sheepmen can find it
profitable to send up their NUT
ton. If the sheepmen could receive
some encouragement occasionally like
that being arranged, they would lind it
profitable to put their sheep in shape for
the mutton markets and send them north.

Joe Adams, an Eastern Texas stock
dealer, WAS in Fort Worth yesterday. He
has had considerable experience in the
Louisiana horse and mule trade and was
asked how he thought that business would
be this year. He wss certain there would
be a big demand for mules and light
horses. There always had been and he
saw no reason for believing this would be
an exceptional year in that
respect. There is always need OF farm
animals there, and Texas has always sup
piled that need. Not only is this true Of
Louisiana, but throughout the southern
states. And the demand for Texas horses
is spreading. AS a matter OF fact they
have superiority over all other breeds OF
farming horses in many particulars, and
this superiority is asserting itself.

DrY Bronchitis.

This disease, the very opposite of the above,
is very common affection. Very many peo-
pie who regard themselves as quite healthy are
to day under its influence, and are slowly but
surely becoming the victims of this trescher-
GUS complaint This is the most insdious of
all pulmonary diseases There may at first be
a slight hacking cough, and an expectoration
OF blush white mucus. And herein lies the
danger. The mucus inhabiting the air cells of
the lungs, being difficult to raise, after awhile
becomes soldifed, permanently .obstructing
portions OF the lungs, causing shortness OF
breath and feeling of oppression on the chest,
particularly after meals or slight exertiOn.
After time the cough becomes more severe
ness of breath increases, it almost assumes the
character of asthma. The mucous membrane
also becomes more and more thickeDed, which
arises from the frequent fresh cold, and the pa
changes that have taken place and the inevita-
BILE results that are sure to follow
Inhalation is the only system which will cure
these diseases, and yet the treatment of the two
forms are entirely different. In the one we
must allay the irritation, while IN the other we
must stimulate healthy action.
This will convince us OF the necessity o: fully
understanding the system of Medicated Inhala-
tiOns in the treatment of the various diseases of
Piled there is no system of medicine to be COM
pared to 1t.
Persons desiring treatr ent by this system of
practice can use the remedies at home as well
as at our office, and which will cause no incon-
venience or hindrance from business whatever.
have seen SO many Of these cases cured that
do not consider any case hopeless, unless both
lungs are seriously involved. Even then the
in contracting and healing the cavities, which
nothing can do with the same success.
The very best reference from those already
cured.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-09-29
Chronic Bronchitis.

Chronic Bronchitis Is also an Inflammation of
the mucous membrane of bronchial tubes. But
this form more often occurs later in life. When
a cold settles on the lungs the disease either
ends in bronchitis or pneum onia. If il ends in
bronchitis it usually passes off as a cold in the
chest and still the patient does not feel entire
ly well. He feels tired and languid. and is in
capable of taking his usual amount of exercise,
and experiences q shortness of breath, with
m ore or less warmth in the palms of his hands
Soon after this congh appears, accompanied
by an expectoratiOn of thick mucus, followed
by hectic flush, loss of flesh and strength, and
night sweats continue. when the patient as
sumes all the appearance of having genuine
case of consumption. But this is simply catarrh
of the lungs or chronic bronchitis.
In the latter stages of the disease the mucous
membrane of the larger bronchial tube softens,
while in the smaller tubes and air cells Of the
lungs the mucous membrane becomes con-
gested and inf1amed. There are no cavities or
tubercles in the lungs. but merely wasting
away OF the larger bronchial tubes and death
takes place from obstruction of the bronchial
tubes and air cells of the lungs. The patient
dies from exhaustion and suffocation, being
unable to expectorate the mucus which accu-
mulates in the passage leading to the lungs,
which in some cases is sticky and small In
quantity, but more commonly copious, of q
light straw or yellowish green. Oftentimes
streaks of blood make their appearance in the
mucus, and at times there is disagreeable
smell. Persons thus afflicted are very liable to
take cOld at which times the mucus becomes
clear and frothy, and it is not uncommonly the
that the patient dies in one of these attacks
