Railroad EngIneers' Ears.

Ihave heard a good deal about
railroad engineers being color blind.
Sometimes, as you may know, an en-
gineers' eyes become so affected that
h. imugines he sees things on the
track. But did you ever hear of an
engineer whose ears deceived him? l
hive. An engineer is always expect
ing to henr the sound of o whistle.
lie listens SO much for this sound
that, after years at the throttle, he
will hear the sound of which l speak
when there is none. In some in
stances the company has had the
ears of engineers put to n test by
eminent auriculists. In fact, have
been told that some companies have
men employed who make an exam
nation of the ears of engineers after
the engineers have been on the road
a certain length of time.-Interview

Recovery Comes Too Late.

Several years ago the residence o!
Cora Pearl in Paris was entered by
thieves and robbed of 100000.

u sum from a banker, with which he
might go to Germany and redeem
the stolen property. That had been
deposited in u German bank. The
bankers suspicious were excited and
the man was arrested, and has reveal
ed the name of his accomplice. The

late to be OF any value to Cora Pearl.

Bells Were Invented in 400,

The Invention of bells is attributed
to Paulinus, bishop of Nola, in Cam
pania about 400. They were first
used in churches as n defense against
thunder and lightning. They were
first hung in England ut Croyland
abbey, in 945. In the eleventh CEN
fury and later it was the custom to
baptize them in churches before they
were used. The curfew bell was es.
tablished in 1868 and discontinued
in 100. Bellmen were appointed in
London in 1856 to ring the bells ut
night and cry, "Take care of your
fire and candle, be charitable to the
poor and pray for the dead"

QUEEN VICTORIA.
What She Drinks and Why the Court
Physician Recommended IL.

The London World has been making an in
yestigation OF what the Queen drinks and has
ascertained definitely that, upon the advice OF
Sir William Jenner. she drinks whiskey diluted
in water This is for the purpose Of retaining
her ygor. renewing her strength aud prolong-
ing her life The whsSey which She drinks is
obtained from the disiilery on her own Balmo-
raj estate, and Of course is perfectly pure. Thus
the World offers a valuable suggestion in this
fact: England's sovereign drinks whisScy under
the accommodation Of the court physician and
on account Of its medicinal properties and she
drinks it absolutely pure, having it distilled
upon her own estate These facts prove two
things: First, that all modern medical science
demonstrates the superior value OF whi,kcy FOR
sustaining the health and prolonging the life:
and second. that il must be absolutely pure.
The leading American physicians and chemists
have endorsed these views constantly and en-
phasiZed the necessity OF having whlskey that
Is absolutely pure. The best medical and chem
ical talent in America has shown that no whiS-
key known IN the market j. so pure A. Duhy's
Malt. II is wholly free from fusil oil. 1t Is un-
like all other so called WHISTLES and 10 is doing
great things for the health Of the community.
So true is this, that while many temperance peo-
pie denounce WHISTLES and liquors IN general.
they acknowledge the superior merit OF Duffy
Malt. and use il incidentally continually. Great
care should be- exercised, however. to secure no
other. no matter how hard a dealer may seek
TO sell YOU something else. a.
