WHERE THE DANGER LIES.
Tie Mysterious and Sudden Ending of
So Many Fully Accounted For.

The real danger from "Grippe" is in its after
effects. Nine-tenths of all deaths resulting are
from pneumonia. What is pneumonia? 1t is a
sudden stoppage and filling up of the lungs
Thick, heavy poisonous mucous gets into ths
aircells and prevents breathing They clog up
quickly, and death ensues The only salvation
is to keep the lungs working and thus throw off
this terrible mucous. There is only one way in
which this can be done, and that is by stimu4
lating them. Under the influence of proper.
amount of pure whiskey, the lungs draw in
deep full breaths and throw out the poisonous.
air each time it is exhaled.
But while this is true, and whiskey has saved
more lives than any other known remedy, if it
is not pure whiskey it is liable to have bad
effect. If it contains fusel oil, headache or
foul tongue will be the result. On the other
hand, when an absolutely. pure. whiskey like
Duffy's Pure Malt whiskey is used, no ill effects
can by any possibility follow Prof Henry A.
Mott says: "The, purity OF Dutfy's Pure Malt
Whiskey las simple, analytical tests will readily
convince) is absolute, and should recommend it
to the highest public favor" To all we unhesi-
tatingly say, insist upon having Duffys, and do
not he persuaded to take any other.

Psoriasis years, covering face, head and
entire body with White scabs. Skin
red, itchy and bleeding. Hair all gone.
Spent hundreds of dollars. Pronounced
incurable. Cured by Cuticura Remedies.
CURED BY CUTICURA.
My disease (psorasis) first broke out on my
left cheek, spreading across my nose and al
most covering my face. 1t ran into my eyes,
and the physician was afraid l would lose my
eyesight altogether. 1t spread all over my
head, and my hair all fell out, until | was
entirely bald d-headed: it then broke out on my
arms and shoulders, until my arms were just
one sore. 1t covered my entire body, my face,
head and shoulders being the worst. The white
scabs fell constantly from my head, shoulders
and arms; the skin would thicken and be red
and very itchy, and would crack and bleed If
scratched After spending many hundreds OF
dollars, was pronounced incurable. | heard
of the CUTCURA REMEDIES; after using two
bottles CUTICURA RESOLvENT, l could see
change; and after / had taken four bottles
was almost cured; and when had used six bot
ties OF CUTICURA REsoLvENT and one box OF
CUTICURA and one cake of CUTICURA SOAP, |
was cured of the dreadful disease from which |
had suffered for five years. l thought the dis
ease would leave very deep scar, but the CUTI-
CURA REMEDIES cured it without any scars. l
cannot express with pen what suffered be-
fore using the CUTICURA REMEDIES. They
saved my life, and l feel it my duty to
recommend them. My hair is restored as good
as ever, and so is my eyesght | know of
others who have received great benefit from
their USE

Mrs. Sarah Helen Whitman, the
last love of Edgar A. Poe, was woman
of exquisite beauty, whose face was
poem and whose life was a romance.
She mourned her poet lover for more
than thirty years after his early death,
and defended him from first to last, with
all a woman's deep faith and undying
love. His friends were her friends, his
enemies her enemies. He was an idol
enshrined in her heart. of hearts, to be
worshiped there forevermore. In her
latter years, she always dressed in
white, with vail of the same color
thrown over the back of her head, and
she sat in a room lighted by alabaster
lamps, whose shades were lined with
rose color.

EGYPTIAN STOCKINGS.
How They We're Knitted in tho Days Of
the Pharaohs.

How They We're Knitted in tho Days Of
the Pharaohs.
The Egyptians of the present-Kepts
as we'll as Arabs-run about with bare
feet The ancient Egyptians. on the
contrary, who are now only to be seen
in a dried condition in museums, pos
sessed very good method of knitting
stockings, as is shown in the collection
at the Louvre in Paris. In the grave of
a mummy there was found = pair OF
knitted stockings, which gave the sur
prising evidence, firstly, that short
stockings, resembling socks, were worn
by the ancient Egyptians; and secondly,
that the art OF knitting stockings had
already attained great perfection in
ancient Egypt. These curious stockings
are knitted in a very clever manner,
and the material, fine wool of sheep that
might once have been white, is now
brown with age. The needles with
which the work was done must have
been little thicker than we should
choose for the same purpose, and the
knitting is loose and elastic. The stock
ing is begun just as we make the de-
sign, only in the simplest manner, with
single thread; but in the continuation Of
the work it is not simply plain, but fam
ciful. The usual border of the stocking
which prevents the rolling up Of the
work is narrow, consisting of row Of
turned-up loops; and the circle, the
nicely-shaped heel, which is q little
different from our method, shows . very
skillful hand But in the point of the
stocking there is characteristic differ.
ence between the Egyptian stockings
and modern socks. While ours end in
q rounded point, the Egyptian stockings
run out in two large tubes of equal
width, like the fingers Of glove. This
strange shape is made to suit the san.
dals, which are furnished with a strap
fastened about the middle of the sandal;
and as the strap had to be laid over the
stocking the division is needed.-N. Y.
