The Chamber OF Torture

Is the apartment TO which tho unhappy sufferer
from inhammatory rheumatism Is confined. II,
ere the crisis OF pain is reached, that fine pre-
ventative, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, Is used
by persons Of a rheumatic tendency. much un-
necessary suffering is avoided. Nervines, ano-
dynes and sedatiyes, while having none but a
a specific effect, are yet very desirable at times.
Yet they can produce no lasting effect upon
rheumatism, because they have no power TO
eliminate from the blood TO rheumatic virus.
Hotetters Stomach Bitters does this, and checks
headway, Il Is next TO impossible to dislodge or
TO do more than relieve. Rheumatism, II should
be remembered, is a disease with a fatal ten
dency from its proneness TO attack the heart. A
resort to the Bitters should therefore, be prompt.
Dyspepsia, kidney complaint, malaria and nerv-
ousness are relieved by II.

Swine have acquired the reputation Of
being filthy animals. This IL unjust,
however, because il Ia only by restraint
that they are so. Give them their native
freedom and pigs are verv neat in their
habits. When fed and kept 40 nature
designed, the flesh oil swine ia probably
as conducive to health az that of any Of
the grasa-eating animals. Pigs should
not be kept In villages or cities, or con-
gregated together IN too great numbers
anywhere in confinement, where they
must wallow in filth and breathe foul
air. Pork from such sums is not proper
food for the human stomach. Swine kept
upon the farm, and furnished with suit
able quarters and healthy food, are a
most desirable class Of farm stock.

MurderOuS Weasels.

George Gray, of Pine Mills, Pa,
went out in one of the farmers
fields one afternoon to haul away
some stone piles that had been
lying in the field since last fall.
He had thrown on the drag but a
few stones from one of the piles
when a weasel jumped out of the
pile. Gray kicked at the animal
asit was passing him, and the fierce
little brute turned on the man and
sprang for his throat. Its teeth
closed on Gray's flannel shirt at
his chest. In tearing the weasel
loose it sets its teeth into Gray's
arm, tearing his flesh down for
three inches. The taste of blood
seemed TO increase the fury of the
weasel, and Gray had all he could
do to keep it from springing on his
throat. He at last succeeded in
stunning the weasel by a kick, and
was about to hurry to the house to
have his wounds dressed, when six
other weasels, one after the other,
trooped from the stone pile and
made a combined attack on Gray.
They swarmed upon him, biting
and tearing his tiesh on the legs,
arms and body. Fearing for his
life, Gray turned and He'd, followed
by the weasels, which chased him
clear to the house, over half a mile
away, infiicting still further wounds
with their sharp teeth.
Gray's shouts for help brought
a son of his employer and another
man out of a barn, where they were
threshing, and the two ran toGray's
aid. Even these rcinforcements
did not daunt the weasels, and be-
fore they were routed, which was
not until three Of them were killed,
they had inflicted many ugly
wounds on their foes, and the three
men were covered with blood from
head to foot.

Cincinnati Inquirer: If, as aIIsg-
ed, it was too much smoking which
upset Mr.. Edwin Booth at Ro-
chester, it is far from being the
FIRST case Of the kind in our history.
Within the past twenty years the
medical faculty has come to clearly
comprehend and to accurately dag
nose a disease which they now de-
nominate as smokers heart"
Excessive smoking, whether by
pipe, cigar or cigarette, affects the
heart and disturbs the circulation.
The pulse will intermit-not with
any regularity sometimes one in
ter, sometimes two or three at the
time, and then comes trouble. The
brain, missing its regular pulsation
Of blood, wavers, the heart hutters,
and then follows temporary col
lapse. Strong cordials are Sim
dicated." Strong coffee is good
strong spirits better. But the
remedy, too often relied upon, is
as bad as the disease; and the sub
ject grows slowly worse. Angina
pectoris is said to sometimes re-.
suit. One Of the leading physicians
Of this city relates case in point.
A patient suffering from Smokers,
heart" believed that he had a,
chronic heart disease, and came for
careful examination early in,the
day-before he had eaten any
breakfast. The stethoscope showed
the heart to be sound as a dot--he
had not smoked for twelve hours.
Greatly relieved at the verdict b O.
lighted a big black cigar, and sat
smoking, upon an empty stomach,
while he talked. In a few minutes,
as he rose to go, his feet failed him,
and he fell in momentary faint.
The heart was fluttering wildly,
but yielded at once and resumed
its normal action after Q strong
stimulant.

To Remove Warts.

MarkTwain writes an interesting
letta 70 the New York Sun stating
that warts and tatto marks can be
remcAd. He says he removed
wars from his flesh when a boy as,
follows:
II drove a needle down into the
basement of the wart; then held
the other end of the needle in the.
fame of a candle some little time;
the needle became red hotthrough--
out its length, and proceeded to-
cook the wart. Presently I drew
the needle out; lift had white atoms
like nits sticking about its point.
that waEt was done; if the point
was clear, | drove itin again and
cooked till got those white things.
They were the roots of the wart.
Twenty-four hours later the wart
would become soft and habby, and
l removed it with a single wipe Of
my hand.
A sailor tattooed an anchor and.
rope on the back of my left hand
with India ink. 1 was proud Of it.
for awhile, but by the time | had
worn it nine years ! was ashamed
Of it. My wart experience of near
half generation before occurred to
me, and | got-my several needles
and candle straightway. / drove
the needles along just under the
surface of the skin and tolerably-
close together, and made them In
clude the whole tattoo mark, then
| fred upon them and cooked that
device thorough. Next day | wiped
the device off with my hand. The
place quickly healed and left no
scar"
