Hope for Consumptives.

During the past few months DR.. Byers has
had more cases of lung trouble under treatment
than during any period for several years. and
his success has been remarkable. not a single
case but is showing Improvement. He astrib-
utes this marked success in part to his beng
alone, and therefore able to map out regular
line Of treatment in each case and follow it up
without interference, as he sees, treats and pre-
scribes for every patient himself. One patient,
who could not lie on his left side, his sleep was
disturbed by paroxysms OF coughing,
could not walk two squares without resting,
now sleeps through the entire night without
coughing, can lie on the left SIDE as comforta-
bly, as on the right, and can walk all over the
city without fatigue. Another patient who had
paroxysms Of coughing till he vomited, could
not retain anything on his stomach, for three
days previous to coming under treatment had
vomited every meal, had relief after first treat
nent and has not vomited since. Two weeks
after t1rst treatment he says "have not Vomited
ach, only an occasional cough, feel as if / could
eat horse" Another patient had chronic
cough for three months, had tried two physi-
Clans taken numerous patent cough medicines
till his stomach was nauseated. After second
treatment in cabinet cough left him and has
never returned. Other cases more remarkable
than the above could be cited, Dut thev are un-
willing to appear in the papers, even though it
may point some person similarly afflicted the
road to speedy and permanent cure. Permis-
sion is had to refer to them, however, and any
one wishing to further investigate this method
of treatment can call at office.

her BODY. On her head she wore a golden
crown, urmornted by diamond lyre In
her left hand she held violin, and with the
other she moved the bow across the strings
She had evidently noticed young Feni-
more, for in the next moment she turned
around, and while Smilingly looking at
him, she changed the music on her instru-
ment, and a tune, which sounded like
''Welcome, Welcome" seemed waited
toward him like the sweetest greeting he
had ever heard. As the young man stepped
forward toward the lovely musician the tune
became more and more fascinating. Feni-
more forgot himself entirely in the
bewitching melody, and he did not
notice that the beautiful maiden slow
lv walked backward toward the
lake. The young fellow followed her,
uuheeding the waters edge Now the
maiden with the diamond Tyre reaches the
water, steps in, and still she continued to
plav, more wonderfully than ever. Feni-
more also stands in the water by this time,
Suddenly, as the maiden disappeared under
the silyery surface Of the water, he also felt
himself drawn below No sooner was he
lost under the water, however, than he be-

was built entirely of ivory. In the green.
bouse where he was, he observed the finest
snecimens Of a most exquisite fora, whose
frarrance made the atmosphere redolent with
the sweetest perfume imaginable
Before Fenimore had time to realize where
he was the lady with the diamond lyre
and the violin came TO meet him.
"Welcome to my home, dear stranger"
she said TO him, in voice as sweet as the
music of her violin.
''Thank you," replied the young man,
'.but will YOU tell me where 1 am"
''You are in the Castle of the Muses., and

throat and by splinters Of ice swallowed be-
fore melting, which cools the gastric in
fammation. Avoid all food that distresses,
if one has to eat soft eggs for two years.
But this can be varied with juice of beef
from any common neck pieces, baked in q
close jar, cooled, SKINNED from the slight
est fat, and taken slowly. small cupful at
time. Game soup from prairie chicken is
also good. Parched corn, ground with a
little cream, is often well borne. All bread
should be graham or whole meal, made with
sour milk and soda. or baking powder in
stead of yeast, we'll baked and crusty, eaten
with little butter.
Nutrition may be aided by rubbing sweet
oil on the stomach and abdomen three times
daily and at night, using three tablespoon
fuls at time, protecting the clothes by
oiled silk over the skin. The oil is ab-
sorbed and strengthens the system, without
taxing digestion, and lessons the terrible
cravings for food which must not be eaten
in quantity. A small amount may be
taken five times day, eaten slowly, with
out distress, when the same quantity taken
In three meals would cause torment.
ANOTHER IDEA.
To ease the craving for food chew little
liquorice root, or loyage, not more than a
bit an inch long, after each meal. Chewing
pure spruce gum is of advantage to dyspep-
tics in strengthening the stomach, and aid
ing digestion by increase of secretion, and
the aromatic taste satisfies morbid hunger.
Needless to say, this is habit for solitude
only. A dyspeptic must abandon the habit
of reading at meals, habit in which many
of them indulge. Laughter, jokes, change
of scene and diversion should be sought,
and made much of. A joke is as good as
dose of medicine, but the only medicine
shall prescribe is the charcoal and pepsin
lozenge, three to half dozen day.
An emulsion of gum arabic dissolved in
boiled water, beaten up with pure sweet
olive oil, is often vel. borne by dyspeptics,
and supplies a concentrated and needed
nutriment; dose, tablespoonful at meal.
A few doses of rhubarb and castor oil will
be of use, but the whole meal crusts, and
careful diet, will regulate all symptoms in
time. Read for fresh information, lively
travels, the Scientific american and Pop,t-
lar Science, train pets, and raise flowers or
study music; in short, seek every diversion,
and healthy interest, and the disappoint-
ment of early ambitions may be the greatest
blessing in life. SHIRLEY DARE.

THE SUN IN HARNESS.
Something About the Best Pictures Made in
PittsburR.

For some time past observing men and
women have noticed that the finest photo
graphs made in Pittsburg have come from
the galleries under the supervision of Mr..
James r. Pearson. The struggle for
supremacy among the,photographers of Pitts
burg was long and hard fight. 1t brought
about an overhauling of galleries and the
introduction of all the latest inventions in
the art that has made longer strides than
any other in the last decade. Now the ques-
tion is practically settled, and it Is admitted
that when a photo bears the name "Pear-
son, it has the strongest Endorsement that
can be- 1laced upon it.
II : easily understood how the Pearson
Gallerles have attained the high measure of
popularity they now enjoy. In the first
place picture that comes from Pearson is
marked BY two characteristics-fdelity in
the reproduction of the features of the SUBJ
ject and beauty of finish. There is nothing
harsh about these pictures, and they are at
tractive in every sense. This is true about
cabinet photographs, about the large photo
graphs, the crayons and the water colors
that have done so much to make these gal
leries noted. These results are not OBJ
tanned by chance. They come because the
most skilliul of workmen are engaged on
them and the men are furnished with per-
feet plant to do their work.
In the reception rooms polite attendants
are always in waiting, competent to suggest
ideas to those who choose to depend on the
photographers experience and quick TO
catch the notion of those who want their
pictures marked by individuality. Their
general aim is to give each sitter the style
of picture he may desire; their particular
aim is to see that none leave the galleries
dissatisfied. If one sitting does not procure
what is wanted, a second may and after that
comes the third, the fourth, or as many as
may be necessary.
A speciality of the Pearson galleries is the
pictures of babies. Many photographers
dread this branch of the work. Mr Pearson
has had such marked success in this line,
that what is task to others is a pleasure to
him; so much SO that no visitor is more well
come than a little one.
Mr.. Pearson's galleries are at 96 Fifth
avenue, Pittsburg, and 43 and As Federal
street, Allegheny. Both are we'll equipped.
Both are full OF skilled artists and both are
under the personal supervision Of Mr..
Pearson. Call at either and you will get
picture of which you and your friends will
be proud. And remember his prices are
within the reach of all.
