Ineffective Drugs.

1T is great pity that physicians so
rarely keep their own supplies of staple
drugs" remarked venerable disciple of
Hippocrates. "Sone country physicians
do, but in the city the practice is fast
dying out. Yet the great majority of
the vegetable extracts on the shelves of
apothecaries' shops are unreliable in
their quality. The herbs used are not
collected at the right season of the year,
and are not properly cured, the strength
varying according to the differences of
grow.
vegetable remedies are easily adul-
terated, and they are usually prepared
by men who lack the knowledge re-
quired for proper selection, manipula-
ton and manufacture. Light, heat and
atmosphere all bring about chemical
changes. and in the course of time the
druggists preparations, even if originally
good, become inert and worthless. Let
the pharmacist be ever so capable, he
cannot PROFOUND a good prescription if
he uses worthless crude drugs.
"The druggist and pharmacist make
their preparations to sell, while the ply
sician who makes his own medicines ex-
ercises the care required to produce the
proper effects. 1t is to the impurity and
inertness of the materials furnished for
prescriptions that much of the disap-
pointment of physicians in the results Of
the treatment is attributable. Fall

Foreign nexxars Not Wanted.

every man." says an American
writer, "has got forte. It's some mems
torte to do one thing, and other mems
forte to do another, while there are
numerous shiftless creatures whose forte
Is to do nothing at all " The latter with
but slight qualification, would seem to
BE- tho characteristic of Gaspone Pyeni,
middle aged German, walking with
tho aid of crutches who appeared at
9ulldhall police court, accused of persist
emily soliciting aims from gentlemen in
Broad street.
Pyeni, it was said, had not dono u
xoko of work since he had been in Eng
bnd, and he was always to be found in
ono or the other of the city thorough
fares begging. The willy German denied
the soft impeachment; he was not beg
ging, he urged, but selling matches The
ingenuity of this lsseveration was made
manifest when the police officer stated
that true it was the prisoner had three
boxes of matches upon him, but they
were in his pocket.
Tho presiding alderman, Sir James
Whitehead, remarked that matches were
very much used as u cloak for begging.
"You must understand" the worthy
magistrate added, "that we cannot have
you foreign bcggars coming over to this
country to beg" This being the first
offense Pycni was discharged, and he
lost no time in hobblins out of court. If
begging there must he there is no need
to import foreign mendicants.-Lond

The Return to the Pine.

A Madison street cigar man is author
ity for the statement that the better class
of smokers is returning to the pipe for
comfort. This is not only shown by the
demand for such goods. but by the nov
elites that are being gotten out by French
factories us we'll as those in America.
''There is no use of an American shut
ting his eyes to it. The French still lead
in everything that is novel and artistic,
and we follow. Here is a French nov
city in the pipe line. 1t is leather case.
1t contains four French sweet briar
pipes. You SEQ the variety of stems and
mouthpieces. 1t reminds you maybe
of a fine fishing tackle. You can have
your stems long or short. You can have
them straight or crooked. The artistic
smoker doesn't confne himself to one
pipe.
"He takes one of these, for instance,
and smokes it one evening with long
stem. He takes another the next even
ing with ~ short stem, and 80 on. You
will notice, too, that by curious az
rurge1nent these stems are so construct
ell that it is impossible for the smallest
particle of nicotine to reach the lips of
the smoker. The outfit show you costs
S3G. Then there are others that contain
fewer pipes, and some contain but one
with different stems. Chicago Tribune.

Congress Caters and Drowning,

Speaking Of congress CATERS and
drowning recalls fashionable middle
aged physician who thoroughly believes
in this fatality. He gave it away in this
wise: While consulting man in deli
cate health about his care for himself in
the winter time the doctor said: "What
kind of shoes have you got on?' They
proved to bc the fatal congress CATERS,
and the doctor objected. "Did you ever
see IN account Of drowned man found
in the bay that didn't say he had Oh con-
gress gaiters? You laugh and say that
doesn't mako any difference, and there
is no connection of cause and effect.
"How do you know there isn't? You
can't trace it, but I'm not certain that
congress CATERS do not tend to such
moral and physical degcncracy that a
man is liable to fall off u ferry boat, or
in a fit of dependency to jump into tho
river. At any rate don't wear them.

she laughed. | went on, and when

several confirlnations of what said, and
she wanted to admit that she was con.
vinced. ."-New York Tribune

Poor Tony Hart! While hts relatives
and friends arc quarrcling over the win
of his dead wife, who was known in the
theatrical world as Gertie Granville,
tho once clever partner of Ned Harrigan
is slowly but surely wasting away in IN
insane asylum at Worcester, Mass. In
fact, he Is but shadow of hts former
self. When Tony Hart was in the very
zenith of success and fortune smiled upon
him he was straight aud erect in stature,
but now he is bent and his gait is shut
fling one, while his voice, but little
whilo ago clear and musical, is nearly
gone; he can scarcely articulate and the
listener cannot understand him.
Paresis, that dread disease of tho brain,
is gradually doing its fatal work, and,
according to tho statement Of DR.. Noble,
the superintendent of the asylum, who
has attended Tony since he was commit
ted to the institution, tho days of the
poor fellow are numbered. Dr.. Noble
expressed the opinion to visitor at the
asylum, who once knew Tony that the
latter can scarcely survive six months
longer, and paralysis of the brain may
result at any moment and be followed
by death shortly afterward.
Tho contest over the will of tho late
Mrs. Tony Hart will be renewed before
Surrogate Rollins shortly, when some
interesting evidence regarding the be-
quests and tho reason why no provision
was made for Tony will be brought out.
The fund raised at the benefit perform
ance, and placed in the hands of Frank
w. Sanger and A. II. Palmer, the the.
atrical managers, as trustees, is used to
pay Harts expenses ut the asylum.-New

thirty-six mines were worked, but en-
ployment was given to 1900 men, and
saO, SIS tons of 2,527, ,652 lire value wero
raised. In 1885 19O,413 tons of coal,

Didn't Care for San.

after leaving his lodgings, he was seen
to take knife from his pocket, cut a
deep cash in q tree and walk on. He re-

notice of several citizens, who felt sort

Keeping Cider Sweet.

Cider to be kept unfermented should
be made rs late in autumn as possible,
as it would be difficult to keep from fer
menting when made early in the season.
November made cider, if bungel up
tight and stored where temperature
near the freezing point can be maintained,
will probably keep sweet indefinitely.
Some people put in half pound or a
pound Of mustard seed to the barrel of
cider and others use sulphite of lime in
the same way. Tho old time method of
scalding is considered by many people
one of tho best and least Objectionable
methods.
We sec this described as follows:
When tho cider has slightly fer7nented
it should DO drawn or dipped from the
casks where it has been standing to
settle into largo copper kettles or an old
copper still, and be heated just up to the
boiling point and no longer, when it
should be again put into open casks to
settle and become cold. 1t will then he
ready to be tightly bunged in barrels
and stored away. During the heating a
large quantity of scum will rise to the
top to bo skinned off, and during the
cooling most of the impurities still held
in solution will be deposited rs sediment

ON CONTRACTS.
Their PeculiaritIcs When Mado Either
by Letter or by Telegram.

ny AeCter OF ny IcleSf6m.
The question of rights and liabilities
under contracts made by correspondence,
or series of letters or kilograms to and
from some one in another city in re-
lation to mutual business transactions,
Is one that is frequently arising in bust
ness life, and with the principles of law
governing such contracts or such CORES
pondence, it will be advantageous to most
business men to be familiar. Contracts
thus made are in their nature the same
as all other contracts and governed by
the same rules, viz: There must be
parties capable of contracting, subject
matter to be contracted for, sufficient
consideration, and an assent or COM
pletion of the contracts, and it is of the
rules governing the determination of
this question only that we propose to
write now, and to give only those more
familiar rules that are we'll established
by adjudicated cases.
An offer made by mail or telegraph is
q continuing and open proposition until
its receipt by the party to whom it is
addressed, and such reasonable time
thereafter as will enable him to accept
or refuse it, or until actual notice of its
withdrawal by the party making that
offer reaches the party to whom the offer
has been made, and any act done by the
party evincing an intent to accept it be-
fore actually receiving such notice of its
withdrawal, is completion of the con-
tract. 1t may be withdrawn by the
party making it at any time previous to
its acceptance by the other, but this no
tice of withdrawal is not operative until
it has actually reached the party to
whom it is addressed.
For instance: If A should write to B.
making certain offer for certain goods,
and B should write accepting such offer,
the contract would be completed at the
time B posted his acceptance, although
A might in tho meantime have written
another letter withdrawing his offer, pro-
viding that B had mailed his acceptance
before receiving the notice of withdrawal.
In other words, the contract is complete at
the time of mailing the acceptance of the
offer, and not at tho time of the receipt
of such acceptance by the party making
tho offer.
Should D delay his acceptance, how
ever, until the receipt of the notice of
withdrawal, no acceptance then made
could operate to bind A to tho contract.
The offer need not be revoked in tho
same manner as it was made, either; and
should A. after making an offer to B
alter his determination and telegraph {
to that effect, which telegram was re
ceived by Il previous to a receipt of the
offer or its acceptance by him, it is g
complete Withdrawal.
The entire question in each case is, Has
there been an assent to the.tcrms offered
before the offer was withdrawn? If SO,
there is complete contract, which call
only be rescinded by the consent of both
parties, while before such acceptance its
terms arc constantly open to molifica.

Easily Opened Burglar Proof Safe.

0ssoAAy Opoucu DuIEi3r ffOOL SaIc.
Mind Reader Johnstone's feat of open
Ing Chicago hotel safe was outdone in
Sioux Falls, S. D., by 16-ycar-old boy,
ID NJ. Sanders. The county officials
have just taken possession of the new
court house, and young Sanders has
been at work in tho building as q plumb
cr's assistant.
County Treasurer Swenson, Chairman
Mckee, and a number of other county
officials were in the trcasurer's room,
md were congratulating themselves that
Che county now had burglar proof
vault which would defy all attempts to
open it. Young Sanders happened along
and made the remark that he could open
the safo himself. Chairman Mckee
smiled at tho young mans bluff and Of
fered to make him Il present of s. if he
would open tho safe. The young man
replied that he was too busy at that
time to undertake tho job. Mr.. Mckee
offered to increase tho amount to $40,
whereupon the young man accepted.
The young man then left the room,
and County Treasurer Swenson proceed
ed to close tho vault doors and to securely
lock them. Tho youthful lmitator Of
Johnstone was brought in and set about
his task. He asked all present to keep
very quiet, and, placing his ear against
tho door of tho safe, commenced opera
tions. His sensitive ear caught every
fall of tho tumblers, and in less than
five minutes the young man, with .
smile on his face, threw open tho door.
The 80 was handed him, and tho
county commissioners will insist upon
tho safe company taking out tho vault,
as the company had guaranteed tho
vault to BIO perfectly burglar proof

A Chemical Lung.

A chemical lung is the latest thing
proposed for tho ventilation of tunnels.
1t was lately tested in London by four
teen scientists. A room Is by 1s was
kept for an hour at temperature of 80
degs., and the air was loaded with
impurities. The men of science were
now called upon to enter, and tho air
was made still more impure by burning
sulphur and carbonic acid gas Then
tho "chemical lung" or punkah, so
called, measuring by 2.6, was set in
motion.
The temperature was soon reduced to
G5 degs., and the air freed from all
impurities. Then fat was burned, to
test the machine for organic substances,
and the ''lung" was started up just in
time to prevent the examining gentle
men from running out for fresh air. 1t
is proposed to use the invention during
the construction of the channel tunnel.

Gaining a Reputation with Ease.

A South Carolina physician, asksd
why ho located at Monclova, said: "It IL
q first rate place for a doctor If man
is sick all you have to do is to tell his
friends (no matter whether the affair is
serious or not to go to priest and have
him confessed and prepared for death.
If he dies they will say: What good
doctor he is. He knew he must die, and
80 had hisspiritual interests attended to-
If no recovers they will say: What a
capable physician ho must be. The man
was in the last extremity and prepared
for death, and he cured him. Soin either

achieve a medical reputation. Medical
