A fisherman, while on Plymouth
beach last Friday, captured a large
gray sea gull in a rather peculiar pre-
dicament. Firmly plnched upon the
birds bill was sea clam about the
size of mans hand. The clam weigh
ed enough to keep the head of the
gull hanging downward, and thus ef-
fectively prevented any long fight
while it was evidently nearly exhaust
ed in trying to escape from its strange
captor. It is thought that the gull,
seeing the CLAIMS snout protruding,
endeayored to seize the dainty, and
was in turn crippled by the hard
shell of its intended victim

Inherited Diseases.

No fact of nature Is more pregnant with awful meaning than the fact of the inheritance of disease.
 Modern science, which has illuminated so many dark corners of nature, has shed new light on the ominous words of tho Scriptures, "The sins of the fathers, shall be visited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation." Fifty per cent. of cases of consumption, cancer and scrofula, run in families through inheritance. Insanity Is hered- itary in Q marked degree, but, fortu- nRtely, like many other hereditary diseases, tends to wear itself out, the stock becoming extinct. A distin- guished scientist truly says: "No organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being the subject of hereditary disease" Probably more chronic diseases, which permanently modify the structure and functions of the body, gre more or less lii able to Dc inc herited. The important and far-reaching practical deductions from such facts are obvious to rehectinR minds, and the best Neans for preventing or curing these diseases is a subject CS intense in- terest to all. Fortunately nature has provided remedy, which experience has attested as infallible, and the rems- dy iA the world-famous Swift's Specific, Q pure vegetable compound-nRture's antidote for all blood poiaons. To the afflicted it is Q blessing of nestimable value. An interesting treatise on "Blood and Skin Diseases" will ba mailed free by addressing

 ARCHITECTURE
 The houses generally, at least five ont of seven. are of wood, which is pr, fcrr, d be- cause of greater cheapness, dryness, strength and speed of construction. An important c ,nsidera'ion with many per sons is the superior s'rength to resist se- were earthquake shock. which are regarded as possible, though not probable. The cooness of the summers and the ire qnency of fog makes brick, which is very absorbent of moisture, undesirable for dwt llings. The objection of .combushbll- ty is greater elsewhere than here, bt cause boarding, shingles, window and door frames, aud most of the inside finish, burr s with S, little heat and abr orbs water su readily, that a fire in it can be extinguish- ed with relative ease. Iu thirty years 1t is said the city has not had great contiagla tiou, and the largest losses by fire in thai perlOd have been in brick buildings. The leading business blocks are built up o brick, with the front on the ground fOol of iron, which allows nearly all the widtk to be occupied for windows and doors The architecture is elegant and varied the ceilings are high; the glass is large plate merchandise of the most costly ma terial and most elegant design is displayed with unsurpassed effectiveness and thu traveller who comes from Paris or Ney York sees, at a glance, that in many re spects the shops of Kearny and Marke streets are not inferior to those of Broad way or the Boulevard des Ttaiians. In detd, if he comes fresh from tie capitol of England or France, he will be ,.~tonish ed to see that the metropolis oi c ,liforni
 far surpasses those ancient and wealth
 cities in the brillancy with which its lead ing retail streets are illuminated at night l Market-st. is, perhaps, the most impressiv } business street in the civilized world, th' ! inferior in some respects to the leadn
 stores of New York, Chicago and Paris
 still when all it's features are considered l its great length and width, its numerou
 large and splendid buildings, its constar , throng of street cars, wagons and fuotmeI it has no superior, and, so far as l know
 no equal. Before the close of our ccntur it will probably be famous tlronghOnt tll 4 civilized world for it's unquesti0ned pr l emincnc. F. T. BRUCE.

INTERESTED PEoPLE.-Advertising patent medicine in the peculiar way in which the proprietor of Kemp's Balsam for coughs and colds does, is indeed wonderful. He author izes druggists to give those who call for fl a sample bottle free, that they may try it be- fore purchasing. The large bottles are 50c and $1. We certainly would advise trial. It may save you from consumption.

Th,t popular paper, the Boltino-

we'll known and popular parsonage:
1t is said that Mr.. Charles Broad
way Rouss, the New York million
aire merchant, receives about 1000
letters every day, and the system in
his vast establishment is so perfect
that it moves along like n good
clock. Mr.. Rouss' success in New
York is truly wonderful, and he is n
bright example for the youth of our
land to dwell upon. He is about 4S
years old. and was born in Jefferson
county, w. Va. He was brave
Confederate soldier, and served
faithfully during the whole war in
Captain Baylor's Cavalry Company,
one of the best in the Southern army.
When the war ended, Mr.. Rouss
commenced the battle of life with
only pluck and energy as his capital !;
to-day he is millionaire, and stands
in the front rank of the commercial
world.
