What is ScrofuIa

1t is that impurity in the blood, which pro-
duces unsightly Jumps or swellings ON the
glands of the neck; causes running sores
on the arms, legs or feet; developes ulcers
in the eyes, ears, or nose, often caus-
trg blindness or deafness; is the origin
of cancerous grOwths, boils, pimples, or
''humors." 1t is more formidable enemy
than consumption or cancer alone, for scrof-
ula combines the worst possible features of
both. Being the most ancient, it is the
most general of all diseases or affections.
How can it be cured? By taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla, which, by the cures it has
accomplished, has proven itself potent
and peculiar medicine for this disease.
Some of these cures are really wonderful.
If you suffer from scrOfula in any of it's
various forms. be sure to give Hoods Sar-
saparilla trial. Send for book of cures.

TEN has been devised on which the sur

The growing popular knowledge of in
visible impurities and the deepening i'm
preston upon the minds of people, the
necessity of q pure water supply, have
caused a demand for G simple and con-
venient test. AS yet there Is no certain
and reliable test by chemical analysis.
The following tests are recommended:
Fill a perfectly clean quart bottle half
full of water, cork and shake It; remove
the cork and see If any odor can be de
tected at the mouth of the bottle. Cork the
bottle again and put into a warm place for
q few hours, or set into n pan of hot
water for an hour. Shake, uncork and
again test by smell. If an unpleasant or
faint or musty odor is perceptible, the
water requires more minute investiga-
ton. The second simple test is to evapor
ate a quart of water to dryness In a new
tin pan or cup, and note the character of
the residue, and what happens when it is
strongly heated In a metal spoon. If the
sediment left after evaporation Is small,
and on being burned In n metal spoon
gives rise only to such an odor rs comes
from burning vegetable matter, the water
Is not greatly contaminated with sewage.
But IL the sediment is in considerable
quantity, dark In color and burns, Civ
ing off the peculiar odor of burning hair
or other animal matter, then the water
Is foul."-New York Graphic.

Richard Cummings, who plays the part
Of Wilfred Shndbolt In THE Yeomen of

tim. Cummings, who is an Englishman
and unfamiliar with American institu-
tions, wanted to know of Powers where
he could find n good hotel when their
company arrived in Washington last
Sunday: DO You want to put up nj, a
81 or a 81 or n s. housel' Powers asked.
Cummings thought he would be satisfied
with q comfortable 81 house. THE
White House is the best 81 house ] know
In Washington" said Powers, putting Din
his most serious air. Its right In tile
heart of the city and everything nice. l
can recommend it." Cummings called a
cab, said White House" to the driver
and in ten minutes was having a heated
argument with the Gatekeeper of the
White House grounds. The controversy
ended in the gatekeeper's favor and
Cummings went in search OF Powers
with a club.-Philadelpliia Times.

IT seems to be peculiarly fortunate for
the Slu, that when it is in need of any
information regarding how the territorial
offices should be dealt out by the Re-
publican administration that Mr.. A. d.
Kelley, late chairman @. the Republican
territorial committee, is so ready at hand
and so willing to impart his ideas. 1t is
strange that the Sun, the organ of the
party, should be forced to grope about in
the dark, apparently unable to fathom
Prcsident-elect Harrison's intentions, and
as yet haye them readily unfolded at
second hand BY Mr.. Kelley. Although
VIC wouldn't breath it for the world
it begins to look as though there
was a niger in the wood pile. Nobody
is very DESTROYS of assuming the response
bIlity of acting as arbitrator on the vari
Gus claims Shich may be presented. The
Cheyenne Republicans will want 4 pretty
fat share Of the plumber no matter what
may be said to the contrary and it will re-
quire a great deal Of adroitness to prevent
a%serious clashing of interests when the
offices are being ladled out.
We will see a great many things be-
sides the boom before the middle of next
summer.

somewhat deaf and had her ears all

tie. The engine came on and on and tho
old lady stayed calmly on the track,
with her back to the oncoming locomo-

the street and dragged the old lady from
the track just In timc to save her life.

Skating is one of the best of sports,
and 1t is also one of the most hazardous.
1t is always best when the ponds and
rivers are first frozen, but that Is like
wise the time when the ice Ia Of unequal
thickness and strength because of cur
rents and springs below. Tho weak
places in h ice are called air holes;
hey constitute the chief dangers In
skating and travelling until they are
marked by boughs set In the ice.
Should an unsuspectfng raveler fall
into one of these open air cavities he will
most assuredly be carried under the ice
II the current Is strong, his only chance,
In the absence of assistance, being to
swim against the current.
One afternoon, says the author of
"Field and Forest Rambies," / saw q
skater plump into one Of these danger
Gus places, when suddenly another, OBJ
serving the accident, pulled off his coat,
and as ne skated past the man In the
water, tossed it toward him, who caught
the sleeve and was dragged out by the
impetus with which the other was going.
The feat was done so cleverly that /
asked the performer Ii he had been &C
customed TO save persons In that way.

men out of the air holes, and that pro

Curious names are always interesting
to the general public. and there are
probably few persons who would not
throw n second glance from n broadway
car as they passed the dry goods house
Of Mr.. Jxiques, or the barber shop of Mr..
VI. The English speaking public have
become more or less accustomed to the
odd appearance of German proper names,
but there are few persons Comparatively
who appreciate what peculiar meaning
Is hidden behind the average tumble OF
c~onsonants and vowels which forms the
Teuton nnmc. One cannot imagine the
possibility that tho English ~transla-
tons of some German names could
DO used for the same purpose among
an Anglo-SaXon people without ut
least causing a howl either of indigna-
ton or of hilarity. In New York's di-
rectory, for example, there are such
names beginning with ''F' alone, us
Feigenblatt, meaning fig leaf" Fahnc-
stock, flagstaff; :" Faul, lazy" or rot
TEN" Faust, fist" Feuchtwangc, moist
check" F1eischhacker, meat chopper"
and Frauenheim. "home for women"
And when these facts arc considered
there arises Mt once the conviction that
Smith, Brown and the rest of them
should feel grateful that they IRE not

There seems to be something remark
able about steamboat disasters While
they are few and far between, years of
practical experience as an agent has
taught me that they never come singly.
Ono occurs, and nine out of ten times
two more follow within n few days. 1t
appears strange, but the records will bear
me out. When we do have q disaster on
the river, 1t is not generally one followed
by great loss of life. There are no moro
careful or cautious men In professions
u river boatmen, and 1t Is q rare
thing to hear of accidents or fatalities.
In late years the most serious disasters
have occurred on the Mississippi river,
and generally come from sinking by
running into unearthed snags of old
hulks Of gunboats sunk during the re-
belion, or are caused by spontaneous
combustion and sparks setting fire to
cotton aboard the steamers. There arc,
however, fewer accidents on steamboats,
than ON railroads, and tho percentage
last year was about ten steamboat acct
dents to n hundred on the rail.-Cincin-
natl Commercial Gazette.

Tho party of surveyors "camped" on
the bank of the Missouri river where
Boone was then located. A number of
gentlemen from Kentucky who came
west to look at the new country mis-
sourD were In camp with Boone. In the
evening", while they were all sitting
around the camp fire, expatiating on the
beauty of the surrounding territory they
had visited that day, saying it was scer-
tainly the best of earth, Boone, who had
taken no part In the conversation, said:
Gentlemen, you have o seen today
the best country on earth" Tho Ken
lucky men, supposing that Boone had
been further west and had seen, If pos
sible, q better country, asked him where
the better land lay. Boone, In reply,
named four counties in the blue grass
region Of Kentucky, the homes of the
men he was entertaining. They were
greatly surprised, and after further con
~versation agreed that Boone was correct.

Important Discoveries which Have Been

Important Discoveries which Have Been
Made Through Accidents
Valuable discoveries have beer made,
and valuable inventions suggested, by
the verb.st accidents An alchenist,
while seeking to discover a mixture of
earths that would make the most dur
able crucibles, one day found that he
had made porcelain. The power of
lenses, as applied To the telescope, was
discovered by a watchmaker's appren-
tice. While holding spectacle glasses
between his thumb and finger he was
startled at the suddenly enlarged p
ance of a ~neighboring church spire. The
art of etching upon glass was discovered
by n Nuremberg glass cutter. By acct
dent a few drops Of aqua FORTS fen upon
his ~spectacles. He noticed that the
glass became corroded and softened
where the ncid had touched il That was
hint enough. He drew figures upon
glass with varnish, applied the corroding
fluid, then cut away the glass around the
drawing. When the varnish was re-
moved the figures appeared raised upon
q dark ground.
Mezzotinto owed its invention to the
simple accident of tho gun barrel Of n
sentry becoming rusted with dew. The
swaying 10 and fro Of u chandelier in a
cathedral suggested to Calico the appli-
cation Of the pendulum. The art of
lithographing was perfected thrOughsug-
g~estions made by accident. A poor mu-
stefan was curious to know whether
music could not he etched upon stone as
well as upon copper. After nc had pre-
pared his slab biz mother asked him to
mako a memorandum OF such clothes as
she proposed to send away TO be washed.
Not having pen, ink and paper CON
v~enient. he wrote the list on the stone
with the etching preparation, intending
to make u copy Of IL at leisure. A few
days later, whcn about to clean the
stone, he wondered what effect aqua
FORTS would have upon it. He applied
the acid, and In a few minutes saw the
writing standing out in relief. The next
step necessary WINS simply to ink the
stone and take oil an impression.
The shop of u Dublin t~obacconist, by
the name of L~undyfoot, was destroyed
by fire. While he was gazing dolefully
into the ~snioldcring ruins, he noticed
that his poorer nciGhbors were gathering
tho snuff from the canistcrs. He tested
the snuff for himself, and discovered
that tho fire had largely improved its
pungency and aroma IL WINS n hint
worth protiting by. He secured another
shop, built n lot Of ovens, subjected the
snuff TO n heating process, gave the
brand n particular name, and In n few
years became rich through an accident
which he at first thought had completely
ruined him. The process of whitening
sugar WINS discovered in n curious way.
a hen that had gone through n clay
puddle went with her muddy feet into a
sugar house. She left her trucks on a
pile of sugar. 1t was noticed that wher-
ever her trucks were the sugar was
whitencd. Experiments were instituted,
and the result was thai wet clay came to
be used in refining sugar. The origin of
blue tinted paper came about by n mere

DR.. Leonard Bacon, of New Haven,
after his active p~astorate had ceased, was
accustomed to sit In the pulpit, and, If u
stranger preached, to introduce him to

The first pastor of this church was the
Rev. John Davenport, and he proceeded
to pronounce a brief eulogy upon him.
Tho grandson of lint pastor was the
Rev. John Davenport, of Stamford. Tho
son of that pastor was the Rev. James
Davenport OF Southold, l. /. We are

scendant Of John Davenport, our first

a CORRESPONDENT of the Omaha Bee
is making n tour Of Iowa with the object
OF finding out whether prohibition pro.
hibits. His discoveries 30 far lead to the
belief that prohibition in Iowa Is a good
deal Of a fraud. He found over a dozen
different places in Des Moines where he
could readily procure a vile quality of in
toxicating liquors at war prices. On the
question of whether drunkenness had
decreased he has this to say: "On my
way down own from the capitol | dropped
in at the police station and with Clerk
johnson went over the criminal records
Of the city for the past three
years, and | must say the infor
nation must strike Governor LARA
bee and the good people of Iowa like a
revelation. In 1883 the total number
of persons arrested for intoxication was
i25; in 1854, the first year of prohibition,
Cos; in 1885, 555, and in 1888, GAO, and
at the ratio they are being run in now,
1889 will outstrip all former years. This,
it must be understood, is not the sum
total Of the arrests for intoxication in this
city by long shot"
Prohibition has not prohibited in
Maine and it has not in Iowa or Kansas.

MTNNEAPoLIs, April 4.-During the
past two days South Dakota and Mime
sofa have been swept by a series of wind
storms which caused millions of dollars
damage to property, and several lives
have been lost. The storm started Mon
dav night and swept over a long area
south of the Northern Pacific, in Dakota,
extending into the southern tier of coun-
ties in this state. The greatest damage
has not been caused by wind alone, but
in many places fires. famed into fury by
storms, wiped out OF existence several
small villages and hundreds of farmers
houses. rendering hundreds Of families
homeless. The town almost completely
destroyed are Violin, Olivet, Pukwana,
Lesterhll and Mount Vernon, and three
or four other villages are badly damaged.
Many head of cattle, sheep and hogs
also persisted. In many places crops are
covered by loose sand and dust, and will
have to be %replanted. Travel is suspend
ed on some roads, so great was the force
of the wind. The storm has abated
somewhat, but is high enough to keep
fires burning fercely, and further heavy
losses are almost certain. The damage in
Minnesota is much less than in Dakota.
as the force OF the storm was pretty well
spent before it reached the border. The
losses in South Dakota amount to $2,OOO,-
600 at low calculation.
