4 Painted Diamond.

There is one pawnbroker in Washington
who has lost all faith in human honesty.
Several months ago nicely dressed man en-
tered his shop and displayed a pair of dia-
mond earrings upon which he desired to
secure a loan. The stones had that peculiar
blush white color so highly priced among
lovers of diamonds, and the pawnbrOker
readily advanced him $3.50 on them. The
stranger departed, and in due course of time
the pawnbrOker triel to dispose of them. He
exhibited the diamonds to a we'll known
dealer, who said if they would stand a test
they were easily worth 81, 800. The stones
We're removed from their settings and placed
in bottle of alcohol. Then they were shaken
for about five minutes, taken out and care
fully cleaned From the beautiful blush
white they mad become as yellow as the
Chinese flag, and were not worth over SIS
The expert said afterwards: "These stones
were painted. The process is a very simple
one. A small piece Of indelible pencil is dis
solved in a teacupful of water. The yellow
diamond is then painted with fine camel's
hair brush dipped in the preparation, and
the stone is allowed to dry. The paint will
wear off in time, but nothing will remove it
quickly but alcohol. No reputable dealer will
have anything to do with such stones, but
we have to keep a pretty sharp lookout for
just such tricks as that one l exposed a few
moments agO."-W ashington Cor. Boston

Wasted skill.

For eleven years a Biddeford man has been
at work with his jack knife, making mu-
scum of wooden curiosities. He has done
nothing else, although his jack knifery has
brought him no money except the small pro
ceeds of two exhibitions He has made ami
mails, tools, violin case composed of 1881
pieces of wood of LOG different kinds, yoke
of oxen and cart put together in a glass jar
with small neck etc, etc Many of his
carvings are ornamental and others would
find ready sale as toys, but he will not set
price upon anything or part with any article,
and his collection is consequently increasing
all the time 1t is queer instance of folly.
If the old man had properly applied his time
he might have done much good; but as it is,
the only legacy that he will leave his fellow
men is an example of what might be called
INSTRUCTED uselessness. -Lewiston Journal.

| had Just arrived in America and was
taking my breakfast in the breakfast room of
the hotel when pretty woman came in with
q little child and seated herself near me- The
child had no appetite and refused, in a whin-
ing voice, everything that was offered to it,
The mother apparently was disturbed by
this, and at last re,apsed into silence for
few minutes. Then suddenly she turned to
the child and said: We'll, don't you feel like

That was good 1t is better than the singu-
lar epithet | once heard an American lady
apply to a fish at table dhote. When it
was placed ON the table she turned to her hus-
band and exclaimed: What an elegant

beef, l admit, but persons are "pcrfectv

American Depuratlng Bath

VIII be found superior 10 anything ever of.
fered for the cure of all diseases of the blood,
rheumatism, catarrh and kidney troubles.
| AS a remedy in dropsy il is unequaled in ell
cscy in affecting a cure to all medicines ana
other agents known to science and diseases OF
the nervous system.
1t is pre-eminently useful in the prevention
and cure of all diseases peculiar TO the fe-
male sex. These statements are made after
an experience Of years in its use in hundreds
of cases.
By its construction we are placed in abso.
Lutte control of heat, difIusible stimulent or
unlimited power; also of water at the temper
allure of the blood; a sedative TO the nervous
and arterial systems, without reactionary ten
denotes.
1t acts by establishing perfect circulation
in the capillaries of the entire skin, removing
congestion, and at the same time depurating
the blood of all poisonous and eilete matter,
thus renovating the organic nervous system
and yitaIizing the functions. During the en-.
tire time of bathing the person is completely
Sro1ec1ed from the inhalation Of effete matter
and poisonous inhalation from his own body
or the bodies of other bathers.
The submerging of the body in water ar
rests depuration from the skin, whereas by
the application of water in sprays, as in this
bath, the elimination of efete matter is rapid
ly increased.
You receive the same baths that are given
at Hot Springs, here in your own home, that
will cost you time and big expense TO go
abroad. @E&kz8
For malaria. kidney trouble, rheumatism,

THE Globe Democrat of Thursday

THE Globe Democrat of Thursday
says:
"If Boulanger should be successful
in the elections next Sunday this Will
be interpreted by Germany as an
invitation to war, and If Boulanger
should be beaten it would mean
Franco Russian alliance, and this,
too, would indicate war. Here are
the views which are said to be held
in Europe as to the outcome OF the
canvass in France. Nevertheless,
looked at from this distance, the
situation does not appear to be es-
pecially gloomy. The influences Ia
vorable to peace seem to be FULLY as
numerous and powerful as those OF
the opposite character"
So far as present judgment is pos
sible, it seems that the republicans
have about two votes to one of their
opponents of all classes. According
to Globe Democrats prognoscis Of
European politics Franco Russian
alliance is the thing expected in
Europe. This will not be accepted
as true on this side the water. There
is no general belief, or well grounded
alarm in this country over any Euro
pean troubles likely to prectpitable
war. 1t has been too long talked
over to be plunged into now.

Vertigo.

ANY disturbance of the blood circulation in
the internal ear, especially in that portion
known as the semicircular canals, will give
rise to a feeling of dizziness or vertigo. This
iymptOm is by no means uncommon, and Is
80 often felt by persons who are otherwise in
perfect health that little attention is general
" paid to it. 1t is true that in many cases
one may be perfectly safe in not needing it
get recurring or prolonged attacks of dizzi
ness should never pass unnoticed.
In what is known as Meniere's disease
which is associated with chronic affection
Of the internal ear, the patient suffers parox'
ysms of intense dizziness, accompanied with
loud ringing in the ears the attacks becom-
ing more and more severe and prolonged as
the disease progresses.
In the great majority Of cases, however
the explanation of the vertigo is to be found
in some local departure from the normal con
iition, the real source of the trouble being
perhaps at some distance from the parts af
feCted
In the ear itself we may have a foreign
body pressing on the drum membrane, OF an
increased pressure in the drum cavity, such
as happens when the passage to the ears Is
stopped, and an excess of fluid accumulates
The same condition may arise also from an
error of vision, in which case it can be ex-
planned only by the intimate nervous connec'
ton between the two organs, an overstraln'

Seventeen of the city prisoners
struck for higher wages. 1t seems
that the party who has the contract
for feeding the prisoners has been
providing an abundance OF good,
wholesome meat and vegetables, with
bakers bread and plenty Of good
coffee, and recently, at the suggestion
Of his wife, he bought several cases of
butter, and from that time there has
been trouble. Creamery butter with
three or four kinds OF desert, including
rum onlets and ice cream, was de-
manded also a dish Of fresh straw
berries with oranges as an appetizer
before breakfast. AS the gentleman
who has the contract only gets Is
cents for each meal, he could not
stand the racket, hence the prisoners
refused TO 60 to work yesterday morn
ing, and in about ten minutes seven
teen OF them were locked up in an iron
cell down stairs, and they will be
given bread and water until they give
up the striking business and go to
work. Hereafter nothing in the way
OF d~elicacies will be allowed, but the
plain, substantial grub will be served
at all times. Ogden Elk.
