6lOOQ Diseases are cured by
the persevering use Of Ayers
Sarsaparilla.
This medicine is an Alternative, and
causes a radical change in the system.
The process, in some cases, may not be

persistence, the result is certain.

A Whale Breaks a Sub marine Tele

On September 9th fault broke out
i'm the SantOs-Santa Catharina section
of the Western and Brazilian Tele-
graph company's system of cables,
but through which signals were ex-
changed up to the moment of cutting
by the repairing steamer Viking.
The latter, while engaged ON the re-
pair on October II, picking up toward
the fault in 81 fathoms, and about 20
miles north from Santa Catharina,
brought to the surface monster
dead whale, measuring about so feet
long, intact, with the exception of
the upper part (the BELLY, from
which all the skin had been worn or
eaten away, leaving only small
portion on the neck and tail; the
cable parted at the fault with the
heavy strain put upon it in lifti ng
and the carcass of the whale being
relieved of the downward pressur e,
rose like a topedo and inflated like a
balloon, a portion arriving at the sur
face of the water bursting and Great
ing a most offensive odor, so that
every one was thankful when the
cable was cut, and the obnoxious OBJ.

whale had two complete turns
round the shank and three
or four across the flat OF
fan part. 1t would he interesting tC
know how long this creature had
thus been imprisoned; from the ad
vanced stage of decomposition il
must have been there some time; Its
body was covered with barnacles, and
some even on the white part, where
the skin had disappeared.
1t is worthy of note that this cable

The state derives its name from the tribe
known now as the Iowa tribe Much learn
ing, or at least research, has been wasted il
the attempt to show the photography and
definition of this word among the Indian:
themselves. While Washington Irving, with
the license allowable to an imaginative writer
states that the meaning of the word is beau
tiful, and recounts the incident by which
that phrase was first applied to the country
saying that the tribe who in their wander
ings arrived at the highest point in the Iowa
prairies, looking over the vast expanse OF
country uninterrupted by hills or swamps
involuntarily uttered the word Iowa,
meaning beautiful"
But probably a better authority for the
meaning of the word was Mr.. Antoine LIE
Claire, half breed of the Sac" and Fox
nations, who always asserted humorously that
that he was the first white man born in Iowa
though his mother was an Indian. He was
employed for many years by the United
States as an Interpreter in their dealings with
the various Indian tribes His definition OF
the word was, Here is the spot-this is the
place-to dwell in peace" 1t is very certain,
however, that the name Of the state. and the
name of one of its secondary rivers, running
through large part of the center of the
state, is derived from the name of the tribe

Phantom Images.

According to an English provincial paper,
Mr.. Cash, board schoolmaster, and Mr.
Pringe, solicitor, were out photographing,
and plate was exposed on a river view near
Ipswich When the plate was developed,
there was plainly revealed, in the fore
ground of the picture, the figure of woman
apparently floating upright in the water, as
it is declared that drowned bodies sometimes
will, after immersion for a certain length of
time The face and head are clearly out
lined the arms are hanging straight by the
side of the body, which is clad in ordinary
female attire, and is visible to the waist; and
the portrait generally appears to be that of
a tall and comedy young woman"
The schoolmaster and solicitor, apparently
thinking there was some peculiar phantom in
the river invisible to the eye, but able to i'm
press the plate, took a chief Of police into
their council and the collective wisdom of
the three took the form of trying to capture
the phantom by dragging the river. In COM
menting on this, The Photographic News ex-
presses the opinion that possibly by this time
Messrs Cash, Pringle, and the chief of polics
have learned that phantom images on gela-
tine plates are not extremely rare, as a mi
mute hole in drying cupboard or box will
often cast an image on plate Again, such
phantom images occasionally arise from q
minute hole i'll the camsra, plate box, or even
the dark slide. Most likely a little inquiry
will serve to identify the original of the phan.
tom portrait.
