Hugo's Account of an English Lady,
Visit to the Paris Executioner,

Hugo's Account of an English Lady's
Visit to the Paris Executioner.
M. Samson lived in the Rue du Marais
du Temple. in an isolated house, of which
the jalousies were always closed. He re-
ceived many visits. Numbers of English
people went to see him. When visitors
presented themselves at M. Sanson's they
were introduced into an elegant reception
room on the ground floor, furnished en-
tirely with mahogany, in the midst Of
which there was an excellent piano, al
ways open and provided with pieces of
music. Shortly afterward NJ. Samson ar
rived and asked his visitors to be seated.
The conversation turned upon one subject
and another. Generally the English peo-
pie asked to see the guillotine. NJ. Sam
son complied with this request, no doubt
for some consideration, and conducted
the ladies and gentlemen to the adjoining
street, (the Ru Albony, I think, to the
house Of the scaffold manufacturer.
There was shed at this place, where the
the guillotine was permanently erected.
The strangers grouped themselves around
1t and it was made to work. Trusses Of
hay were guillotined.
One day an English family, consisting
OF the father, the mother and three pretty
daughters, fair and with rosy cheeks, pre-
sented themselves at Sanson's residence.
1t was in order to see the guillotine. San
son took them to the carpenters and set
the instrument at work. The knife fell
and rose again several times at the re-
quest of the young ladies. One of them,
however, the youngest, was not satisfied
with this. She made the executioner ex-
NInSv TO- avn To- h. I~A- Ia
Is called the toilet of the condemned.
Still she was not satisfied. At length she
turned hesitatingly toward the execu-
toner. Monsieur Sanson," she said.
"Mademoiselle, said the executioner.
"What is done when the man is on the
scaffold9 How is he tied down9'' The
ter to her and said, eve call that put
ting him III tile OVEN" "Well, Monsieur
Samson" said the young lady, 81 want
you to put me in the oven.''
The executioner started. He made an
exclamation of surprise. The young lady
insisted. ~ FANCY" she said, chat I
should like to be able to say / have been
tied down on it." Samson spoke to the
father andf mother. They replied; Gas
she has taken q fancy to have it done do
1t" The executioner had to give in. He
made the young miss sit down, tied her
legs with a, piece Of string and her arms
behind her back with rope, fastened her
to the swinging plank and strapped her on
with the leather strap. Here he wanted
to stop. mo, no, that is not yet all, she
said. Samson then swung the plank
down, placed the head of the young lady
In the dreadful neck piece and closed it
npon her nack Then sho declared sho
was satisfied. When he afterward told
the story Samson said, 81 quite thought
she was going to say at last, THAT ia not

Nasal Voices, Catarrh and False
Tnath

a prominent English woman says the
American women all have high, shrill, nasal
voices and false teeth
Americans don't like the constant INVITING
they get about this nasal twang, and yet it is
tact caused by our dry stimulating atmos-
phere, and the universal presence of catar-
rhal diffiulties.
But why should so many of our women
have false teeth!
mat IS more of poser to the English. 1t
is quite impossible to account for it except
On the theory of deranged stomach action
caused by imprudence in eating and by want
OF regular exercise.
Both conditions are unnatural
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption, which
are promoted by mal-nutrition induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition is
modern one, one unknown to our ancestors
who prevented the catarrh cold, cough and
consumption by abundant and regular use of
what is now known as Warmers Log Cabin
Cough and Consumption Remedy and Log
Cabin Sarsaparilla, two old fashioned RENE.
dies handed down from our ancestors, and
now exclusively put forth under the strong
est guarantees of purity and efficacy by the
world-fanled makers of Warmers safe cure.
These two remedies plentifully used as the
spring and summer seasons advance give q
positive assurance of freedom both from
catarrh and those dreadful and, if neglected,
inevitable consequences, pneumonia, lung
troubles and consumption, which so gem
orally and fatally prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher of Salem, Henry Co.,
Iowa, served four years in the late war and
contracted a disease called consumption by
the doctors. He had frequent hemorrhages.
After using Warmers Log Cabin Cough and
Consumption remedy, he says, under date OF
Jan. 10Th, 1888: g do not bleed at the lungs
any more, my cough does not bother me, and
] dc not have any more smothering spells.
Warmers Log Cabin Rose Cream cured his
wife of catarrh and sue is 'sound and well.
Of course we do not like to have our women
called nose takers and false teeth owners
but these conditions can be readily overcome
in the manner indicated.
