Morosina on Jay Gould.

Mr.. Giovanni p. Morosini bids fair
to become the Boswell of Jay Gould.
The following is culled from long
description of him in the Sun:
"Mr. Gould never gets violently an
cry. When he is provoked he de-
notes the fact by shaking his fore
finger of his right hand and saying
That was wrong or That should not
haue been done.' He was never known
to utter an oath or to use an oppro-
brious epithet. He never gets excited.
Under all circumstances he is the
same unperturbed, self-possessed cal
culating man. His demonstrations OF
pleasure, although not boisterous. are
much more marked than those of an
ger. Mr.. Gould is the most liberal
man to his friends and employees that
Wall Street ever knew. Many times
he made investments in stocks for
people and handed them the profits.
They have taken the money and tried
to add to it by speculations. Not un-
derstanding the devious ways OF the
stock market, they lost all, and
promptly accused Mr.. Gould of setting
traps to catch them. Men who made
fortunes through association with Mr..
Gould, and lost them after breaking
off their relations VII him, have
found excuses for their misfortune by
charging it to his Vaccinations. Mr..
Gould has often said that it was i'm
possible to succeed in Wall Street
without large capital and without be-
ing member of the combinations
made up to manipulate values. He
has no superstitions and no prejudices.
He looks at everything in hard.
matter -of-fact way, and deals with
conditions instead of theories. He
uses neither tobacco or liquor. He
never smoked but once. That was
soon after he started in the stock
brokerage business in Wall Street
many years ago. He went to din
ncr attended by a number OF brokers,
and at its conclusion was prevailed
upon to try II cigar with his coffee.
His experience was the same as that
of the average small boy who is
learning to smoke. The room turned
upside down, and there were all the
other customary symptoms of the first
cigar. II it can be said that Mr..
Gould has bad habit, it is the habit
of drinking coffee. He is inordinate-
ly fond of black coffee, and often
drinks three or four cups at u meal.
Mr.. Gould learned u valuable lesson
IN the brokerage business from Jim
Fiske. Mr.. Gould asked him how he
conducted his business. 'Our business.
replied Mr.. Fisl.e, lis conducted on
a very simple plan. When a customer
puts up margins we Immediately di-
vide them among the members of the
firm. We never had to refund but
once. An old man left $4,000 with
US as margin, but he died before he
could give us an order, and we had to
pay the money to the administrators.
Your plan is very simple. said Mr..
Gould quietly, but understandingly.
No man ever had a happier home than
Mr.. Gould. He is absolutely devoted
to his children. and they in turn fairly

Prof. Pickering of the Harvard Col

ton, possibly immense cultivated
tracts. The canals are usually some
thirty to $50 miles broad. by 1000 or

as follows: The rock upon which the
Lighthouse tower stands rises ninety
six feet above high water, the focal

feet above the base of the tower. and

The Child of an Evil Parent.

Molvolio says in Shakspeare's Comedy
OF Twelfth Night, "Some are born great,
some achieve greatness, and SOHO have
greatness thrust upon them." So it is
with nervousness. Some are born ner'
vous, some achieve nervousness by their
own imprudence and neglect, and some
have nervousness thrust upon them by
disease. The basic starting point Of this
ailment, which grows rapidly and assumes
alarming proportions when il reaches the
stage Of hypochondria and chronic sleep
lessness, is weakness, the child of indigcs-
tioD, parent Of many evils. For the inca
pacity OF the stomach to digest food, and
OF the system to assimilate it after diges
tion, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has ever
proved sovereign remedy. Sleep be-
comes tranquil, appetite improves, abnor-
NAL constituencies OF the nerves Is sue

A Poverty.st Millionaire

This seems a paradox, but It is ex-
planned by one Of New York's richest
men. 81 don't count my wealth in

possessions to me, since I am victim
of consumption My doctor tells me
that l have but few months to live,
for the disease is incurable. am poor
er than that beggar yonder." but"
interrupted the friend to whom he spoke,
consumption can be cured. If taken
in time, DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery will eradicate every vestige
of the disease from your SYSTEM" I'm

and to-day there is not healthier,
happier man to be found anywhere.
The "Discovery" strikes at the seat Of
the complaint. Consumption is dis
case of the blood-is nothing more nor
less than lung -s..ofula- and it must

"Golden Medical Discovery" is not
only an acknowledged remedy for that

A DOCTORS CONFESSION.
He Doesn't Take Much Medicine and
Advises the Reporter Not To.

s.Humbugp or course it is. The
so-called science of medicine is a hum
bug and has been from the time of
Hippocrates to the present. Why the
biggest crank in the Indian tribes is
the medicine man."
Every frank was the admission, es-
pecially so when it came from one of
the biggest young physicians in the
city, one whose practice is among the
thousands, though he has been grad
uated but few years" says the Buff
falo Courier. "Very cozy was his
office too, with its cheerful CRATE fire,
its Queen Anne furniture, and its
many lounges and easy chairs. He
stirred the fire lazily, lighted a fresh
cigar, and went on.n
Take the prescriptions laid down
in the books and what do you find?
Poisons mainly, and nauseating stutfs
that would make healthy man an
invalid. Why in the world science
should go to poisons for its remedies l
cannot tell, nor can find any one who
can"
"How does doctor know the effect
OF his medicine?" he asked. ''He
calls, prescribes, and goes away. The
only way to judge would be to stand
over the bed and watch the patient.
This cannot be done. So, really
don't know how he is to tell what
good or hurt he does. Some time ago
you remember, the Boston Globe sent
out a reporter with stated set Of
nj 10 10 al
ineut physicians and brought back
eleven different prescriptions. This
just shows how much science there is
in medicine
There are local diseases OF various
