often when other medicines have failed, has

every spring my wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, sores breaking
out on them in various places. Ny little boy,
three years old, has been O terrible sufferer.
Last spring he was one mass Of fsores fromh

" He thought every American should blush for shame when he thought of the viola ton of our treaty with China, whereby permission to land on our shores was re- fused to Chinamen.

A" the flor short" title of a society in Stafford Springs means, when fully written out, Retail Merohants' Protective Association, It embraces about all the mer- chants of the village, and it's excuse for being Is the considerable number of buns to be found in every manufacturing village, and who come and go, and forget to pay as they go. The laws of the state now give little protection to those who give credit to the workingman, and naturally the merchants are compelled to be careful in giving credit. The honest man can soon establish g reputation as such. The dishonest one, under the rules of the association, 30 soon as one member finds him failing in honoring his debts, is shut out from credit everywhere. The member of the association has no choice in the matter 1;
 he is obligated to refuse credit to the man whom his fellow member has black-listed as unreliable and dishonest, and as having neg lected or refused to keep faith with the man who has trusted him.. The merchants have been forced into this organization for self protection, and while regretting the neces- aity tho obligation put upon each of them is g strong one. A reputation as dead beat will
 be bad one for any resident of Stafford to bear who hasn't got means to pay cash.

DRUGGING HORSES THE LATEST.

"There is curious way of drugging race horses" said prominent turfman at the St. James Hotel recently, "which has, so far as I know, entirely escaped public notice. It Is to compel them to inhale some one of those new and powerful an aesthetics which have been discovered in late years. I have seen 1t done three times in ths past twelve months, once at Brighton Beach and twice at Guttenburg. In each case the drugged horse was in perfect health, fine condition, and, what was more, a favorite with the bookmakers. A man wearing heavy gloves, dogskin, l think, approached the animal in friendly way, and after stroking him minute or two, held his hand close over his nostrils. The horse threw his head up violently, but the fellow repeated the action three or four times. When he moved away the quadru- ped seemed quiet, if not dazed. When led to the track he seemed to have grown weak and i'll, and, of course, lost the race. On one of these occasions it became quite sick, and so continued for several hours. Once was near the man and detected a strong, penetrating odor, such as have perceived in drug stores and physicians offices. do not know what the chemical is, but think that the matter is worth coAsiuolAnS Dy eFoAy OoUy "no Ao AAsoAoosou in the turf"
 Dr. A. w. Jackson, leading physi- clan, who stood by, said: "I have never heard of the trick mentioned, but know that under favorable conditions it could be readily accomplished. Of the many narcotics and anaesthetics there is one which exerts powerful and dangerous ac. ton upon the heart, as we'll as producing deep insensibility. This drug is the nj trate of amyl. It is 8 new discovery, and on account of its dangerous qualities ia seldom used by the medical profession. When man inhales it's vapor, it usually produces a rush of blood to the brain and also the surface of the body, resulting al. most always in an irregular heartbeat and splitting headache. do not know what its effects upon horse are, but in all prob. ability they would be the same as with a man. If sconndrnl ware tn> play snek an infamous trick, he would undoubtedly wear glove, and soak the palm of it with the deadly fluid. The bare haud would hold very little, and that would evaporate in no time. A dogskin glove would hold great deal more, while cloth, thread, worsted, or yarn glove, would stupefy g dozen horses.

Ira Tripp, a millionaire of Scranton, Penn., for many years smoked cigars unti his physicians told him he must stop smok ing or die. Thereupon Tripp hired g negro to smoke all day near him and blow the smoke into his face. The negro did this for years until he died, and his place was taken by white man. Mr. Tripp is in perfect health. His smoker uses about twelve fine cigars day. Tripp seems to derive great enjoyment from this second hand method of indulging in tobacco.

 Judge Sawyer, in the United States cir cult court at San Francisco last Monday morning, rendered decision in the ha. beas corpus case of Deputy Marshal David Nngle, and discharged Nagle from custo- dy. A bill of exceptions filed by counsel for the state was allowed by the court, and pending an appeal to the United States supreme court Nagle was ordered released on his own recognizance with bonds fixed at &, ,000. In the course of his decision Judge Sawyer said :- ....-~ "Nagle, on the scene of action, facing the party making the murderous assault, knowing by personal experience his physi- cal powers and his desperate character, and by general reputation his life long habit of carrying arms, his readiness to use them and his angry murderous threats, and seeing his demoniac looks, his stealthy assault from behind, and remembering the sacret trust committed to his charge; Ma gle in these trying circumstances was the party to determine when the supreme mo- ment for action had come, and if he hon. estly acted with reasonable judgment and discretion the law justiies him even if he erred. But who will have the courage to stand up in the presence of the facts de- veloped by the testimony in the case and say he fired the smallest fraction of sec- ond too soon? In my own judgment he acted under the trying conditions sur- rounding him in good faith; and with con- l summate courage, judgment and discre- tion. The homicide was, in my opinion, clearly justifable in law, and in the forum of sound, practical common sense, was commendsble.
