Perhaps we can tell you
to-day something that will
both interest and profit you.
There is no branch OF house
furnishing that needs so
much looking into as Parlor
Suites. Youcan see what you
want when you enter a store,
that is SO far as the eye
reaches; you can find the
goods to suit your fancy
and the woodwork looks
neat and substantial. But
what about the makel Ia
everything good and strong
under the cover? Right here
Is where you want to stop
and consider. Is this Parlor
Suite what l want? Will it
stand the use and wearl
You're puzzled; you can't
see below the covers, and
unless you know your dealer,
you're thinking of money
wasted on "a worthless arti-
Gle. For worthless it will
be unless well made; no
matter how expensive the
cover, unless it is started
right from the bottom, it's
bad. We want to help you
here. Just step this way; pick
your frame from this
room; the frame is bare, you
can see the weak place, if
any. Select your covers.
Walk in our upholstering
room, you see there uphols-
terers making suites. Do
you object to anything you
seel No! Well, leave the
rest TO US; we'll turn you out
a good suite, one started
eight from the first and first
class in every particular. II
) on still doubt, we will give
you a written guarantee tos
the well wearing of the
suite In all our years OF
selling furniture we haven't
heard a complaint from any
of our own make. Where
you buy your Parlor Suites
insist on seeing the work
room; an honest dealer will
as leave have you go there
(if he has one) as in his
warerooms.

"My poor fellow, what Is the natter
The tramp fell in fainting ct before
he could answer the question.
"You see." said the engineer, "this
man was tramping through the woods
when he came 10 the track and found
two train wreckers tsmpering with
the rails. Well, this tramp. or what
ever he is, jumped on the two scoun-
drels like tiger. He disabled one OF
them, but re other stabbed him in the
side and ran away. So he bnilt fire
on the track, and as soon as saw 1t
stopped the train"
Just then several passengers came
up with the wounded wrecker, who
had been seriously injured by the
tramp.
The villain evidently thought that
he was mortslly wo unded, for he made
o full confession.

or, ''that we owe debt of gratitude
to our preserver. Many men in this
fix would not have turned over hand
to save u.s."
The tramp opened his eyes and
smiled family.
''Dld you know we were on the
trainf" asked the marshal.
"Oh, yes; / saw you when you'll

hung about here because saw those
two chaps acting suspiciously on the
track"

party. ale shall have the freedom

"Thank you," said the tramp, with

The recent election of Mayor
Shakespeare, of New Orleans, to q
second term Of Office recalls the amnse-
ment with which an Englishman
who visited the Southern city last
year told the following story subse
quently in Chicago: ''I found the
southerners deucedly ignorant, he
said. "Why, man In New Orleans

HEART-FEARs OF RELAPSE.
TBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRr3UyE.l
WASHINGTON, June 10.-General Sheridan up
TO late hour tonight, had experienced no relapse
This was relief TO all his friends and to his ply
sicians. There had been apparently so much regu-
larty IN the returns Of his dangerous relapses that
another one was dreaded and almost expected to
occur to-day. DR.. Pepper, without being re-
quested to do so. stated when he left last Thurs
day morning for Philadelphia that he would return
for o general consultation on Sunday afternoon
DIR. Lincoln, apparently moved by the same i'm
pulse and anticipation, also agreed to meet the
other physicians at the same time. The doctors
met this afternoon and held long consultation
They afterward between and p. m, issued n
bulletin, signed by both the civilian physicians
and also by the Army surgeons, in which they
stated that the Generals condition continued at
least as favorable it has been for three days
past"-no better no worse. The respiration was
described as being still Irregular, but it was add
ed that the heart action is improved
This the first deiiajte indication Cf even
the fantest successful effort TO rally from the deep
descent into which the last relapse bad plunged
the suffering hero, was naturally welcomed Inc
physicians state that the nervous force holds out
we'll that his mind is clear, and that there are
no present indications of any serious complication
impending" They say that the Generals appear
ance is better and that he expresses himself as
feeling hopeful of recovery.
OF course the salient features OF the case con-
Time TO be the steady loss of strength, the utter
inability to take and assmilate sufficient nutri-
ment, and the evcr-present doubt of the recupcra7
tive power to survive another relapse. Each
previous attack has left him on lower plane
than before and his gallant efforts TO get back
have always been repulsed by some new com
plicatious.
The sultry heat of the midday was tempered hy
thunder storm in the afternoon and all the
windows of the house, except those, Of the sick
room, were thrown open to let IN the refreshing
after,breeze. At IL D. M his condition was un-
changed
