cln these days. of cures, and rumors
OF cures, the following, for which we
are Indebted to the New York Sun,
will be of interest
A peasant physician named REG.
er, of Glogau, in Silesia, announces
a cure for dipththeria, which an
agent Of the Emperor has examined
and reported very favorably upon.
1t is thought to be a mixture of ex.
tracts from two or three common
weeds and an oil. The salve result
ing from the mixture is liquified, and
applied with brush to the interior
of the throat. The remedy was dis.
covered by Rieger's father, a shep-
erd. It was applied by him only to
external wounds. Once, when young
Rieger's whole herd was dying of
dlpth1heria, he, IN despair of all
means, began treating their throats
with the sdlye. The favorable effect
was apparent almost Immediately,
and 10 few days every head of cat
tie was wei again. Shortly after.
ward dipththeria became epidemic
in the village. Rieger was invaria.
bly, called to give his remedy in the
most severe cases, and almost without
exception it was followed by recov-
cry. Gradually its fame spread, till
to-day he is receiving calls to cure
persons of diptheria all over Ger
many. The cures that have contrib
uted most to his reputation were
effected few weeks ago in the family
Of the Freilherr Won Palkenhausen,
in Bielau.

A telegraph Operators Advice.

wish to say to the boys who are
thinking of learning telegraphing
that they will feel like kicking them
selves il they ever learn it.
don't think there is cIass,of
men in the United States that put in
as many hours of as hard work for
as small pay as the telegraph opera
tor, And surely there is no class of
men that have half the responsibility
of tie railroad operator bat what
gets nearly if not fully double their
pay.
Nearly all railroad Operators
work IL hours for a day. And at
stations where but one operator is
employed fifteen hours is about an
verage day.
There are more railroad "opera.
tors working now at $40 per month
and under than there are over that
amount.
The average operator" does not
get but little if any more than the
unskilled track laborer.
The boy who wants to learn tele.
graphing will pay from $25 10 $lO0
and spend from one to two years
learning, and then be lucky to get q
job with no larger pay than the
track laborer.
Boys before you commence learn
ing telegraphing go to some old
railroad teleprapher and ask for his
advice. Nine outof eyrey ten will
advise you not to learn it.--Cor De-
troit free Press.

4 Remarkable Book by Rev

markable books, but doubtless tire
most remarkable that will appear
for some time to come is Rev. 7.

book contains and how it was
Dewitt Talmage's new work on the
prepared may be obtained by read
ing the following extract from the
Doctors preface !:
"lG my American home, on the
Atlantic, on Mediterranean, on

candle in tent on Lake Galiee, in
convent, at Bethul where Jacobs

the angels of the ladder landed: at
the brook Elah, FROM which little
David picked up the ammunition Of

egg-shell the skull of Goliath; mand

Esdraelon, the battle field OF ages

masonry of Jericho, in Jerusalem

in "Reminiscences, at Cana where

earthquake at the awful hemorrhage
of the five wounds that purchased
the worlds rescue, and with my
hand mittened from the storm, or
barred to the sun, or gliding over
smooth table, this book has been
written"
This book will certainly be worth
reading and preserving. II is not
only life of Christ from an entirely
new standpoint, but it is also
very interesting history Of a country
and people who occupy prominent
place in the thoughts and feelings
Of all Christian nations. The large
number of excellent pictures of
places and scenery in the Holy Land
with which the volume is illustrated
give it special interest and value.
We cannot all go to Palestine, but
this elegant book, through the aid
OF it's pictures and Dr.. Talmage's
wonderful descriptions accompany
ing them, brings Palestine to our
very doors. The book is indeed
positive necessity to proper un-
derstanding of the Bible accounts of
places and events. We can under
stand and appreciate Bible history all
the better when we see Photographic
representations of the places where
this history was made. From MAN
GER TO THcoNE" marks new ear
in the literature of Bible Lands, and
we are not surprised TO learn that
the demand for the book is phenome,

territory basis, and persons desiring
to secure agencies will find the Pub
