Home Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that

the result of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from ore to three
simple applications made at home by the

A Universal Telegraphic Cipher.
From the New York World

From the New York World.
The system has the merit of extreme
simplicity and ut the same time pro-
vides every man with his own cipher,
which is absolutely secure. There is
not space here to enter into details. but
This single example will show it's COM
pactness and effectiveness. The cipher
dispatch is Jackets one word, and
the translation is: "Market opened un-
settled. Corn in Chicago cent lower.
Wheat in Chicago l cent low
er. Corn in New York ( cent
higher. Wheat in New York 3 cent
higher"-in all twenty-nine words.
The method is simple. Eighteen conso-
nants stand for any possible condition of
the market. ] stands for Market
opened unsettled" They also stand
along the same diagram for conditions
of corn and wheat in Chicago and New
York. The vowels count for nothing
merely to make it an ineligible word.
1t will readily be seen how adaptable
and valuable this system may be made
to any business in which ciphers are

Didn't Propose to Know Too Much

From the London Graphic.
During the administration OF Lord
Melbourne there was singular young
gentleman employed in the general
post-office. His name was 6. He was
from Yorkshire. the son of widow.
Her husband had been the servant of
an eccentric old general, who had
a kind feeling for the boy, and always
got him out of his difficulties with
some of the high officials, to whom his
singular interference was distasteful.
Among other things it is said of him
that while he was employed in the
general post-ofice, on one occasion he
had to copy letter of some high official
in answer to an application made
by an old gentleman in Rutlandshire
for the esta blishment of a new post
office. The writer of the letter said
the application could not be granted in
consequence of the applicants "prox-
unity to another Office"
When the letter came into G.'s hands
to copy, being great stickler for plain
ness, be altered proximity to near
ness"
The official observed it and asked G..
why be altered his letter.
"Why," replied e., because I don't
think the man would understand what
you meant by proximity.
"Well," said the official, ''try him !;
put in proximity again."
In q few days a letter was received
from the applicant, IN which he in
dignantly said that his father had
fought for his country in the French
wars, and he should like to have the
scoundrel who had brought the charge
of proximity or anything else wrong
against them.
"There," said g., "did I not say so p"
@. carried his improvement to such
an extent that the secretary said to
him: 81 do not want you any longer

Poor G. went, but his old friend the
General got him another place.
This time G.'s ideas underwent a
change. He was one day busy writing;
stranger called in and asked him
where Downing Street was.
81 don't know" said G.
''Nor Buckingham Palace"
mo"
The stranger finally asked him if he
knew where the Guild Hall was.
NO" replied G.
''Do you live in London, sir?" said
the stranger.
"Yes SIR" said G.
"Good gracious and don't you know
where Downing Street, the houses of
Parliament, Buckingham Palace and
the Guild Hall are 2''

What is regarded as next to deci-

Obligation of the French. German, and
the Russian armies would cost 81, 600, 900
and their maintenance in the field
would cost $500, O00, 900 q month.
A war of six months duration would
therefore use up, for these three coun-
tries alone, the sum of 81 800, 600, 900.
Besides that every nation in Europe, in
Guiding England, would have to arm

millions more. These bills are consid-

How to Avoid Dyspepsia.
From the New York Ledger.

from the New YORK Ledger.
All dyspeptics should avoid anything
which they mot others) cannot digest.
There are so many causes for and forms
of dyspepsia that it is impossible to
prescribe one and the same diet for all.
Nothing is more disagreable or useless
than to be cautioned against eating this
or that, because your neighbor "so-and-
so" cannot eat such things. If We
would all study the nature and diges-
ton of food, and remember that air and
exercise are as essential as food in
promoting good health, we could easily
decide upon the diet best suited to our
individual needs. The diabetic should
abstain from sugar and anything which
is converted into sugar in digestion,
such as all starchy foods, sweet omeIets,
custards, jellies. sweet sauces, starchy
nuts, wine and liquors.
The corpulent should abstain from
fat as we'll as sugar and starch. A diet
of whole wheat, milk, vegetables, fruits
and lean meat will produce only nor
NAL amount Of fairness, while an excess
of acids, sweets, spices, and shortening
keeps the system In an unhealthful con-
dition. Those who can digest fine
-four, pastry, sugar and fats become
loaded with fat, but are neither strong
nor vigorous.
Thin people with weak digestion
should also avoid such food; for thin
people are often kept thin by the same
food which makes others fat. If they
cannot digest the starch, butter and
fine flour, the system is kept in fever
ish, dyspeptic state; they become ner-
vous or 60 into consumption for no other
reason than that the life is burned out
by diet which only feeds the fire and
does not renew the tissues.
Men dig their graves with their teeth
lot only by drinking whisky and using
tobacco. but by eating food loaded down
with infammatory materials.
