several millions every second and soon oyerruns
the body with disease Others have said that we
are passing through region of star dust and that

it is something within the body which is fighting
with the body to undermine the life
What would common sense dictate in such an

the system. Do not trife with it. Act promptly
and wisely at the first approach, which you can
readily detect. Take something which can counter

the best thing to take, and whisky is preferable 70
any other kind of spirit; but it should be borne
very carefully in mind that only pure whisky will
have the effect, and it should also be remem-
beTed that Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky stands at the
head of all preparations, and is the only medicinal
whisky upon the market. Scientists have asserted
this, the doctors have verified it, and millions of
people have proven it beyond doubt. There are
many inscriptions dealers who will you that
any whisky will answer the purpose. but they are
wrong and are trying to deceive you. In of

PECULIAR DELAWARE.
Its Old Whipping Post and PillOry tt
Pose as Curioaities.

Its Old Whipping-POs and PiIIOry to
Pose as CuPiosities.
The Jail Commissioners Of this county
have sold the whipping-post and pill0ry in
the Newcastle Jail-yard, and it has just
been ascertained that it is the intention of
the purchaser to exhibit the stocks at the
Worlds Fair in Chicago in 1893, says Will
mington (Del) special to the Gl0be-Demo-
crat. The old post has done service since
1857. Probably no woman was ever logged
at the post, but numbers have stood in the
pillory. The "cat," a savage whip with
nine heavy thongs, which has also seen
service for over thirty years, goes to make
up part of the exhibit. 1t is proposed to
set the old stocks up in Chicago as a curl
Osity that cannot be seen in America outside
of Delaware. The Jail Commissioners sold
the stocks for ireWood, they being old and
out OF repair. A resident Of the town pur-
chased them.
A new post and pillory has been erected
in the place of the one disposed Of Pulpit
lecturers. newspaper and magazine writer's
and priSon-reform representatives have pre-
scented them to the public gaze in neat pict-
ures. There has been protest alter protest
entered by humane societies against the use
of the lash and rack, bat they have not been
needed, except that public sentiment has
modified the severity of the application of
the heavy lash. Delaware will not give up
this mode of punishment for many years al
least, it being recognized as a species of
penalty which makes a lasting impression
upon culprit. Big Frank, Jimmie Hope
and their cracksmen pals were all whipped
and pilloried at the old post for attempting
10 crack the Delaware Bank, and the efficacy
Of the mode of punishment as preventive
measure is attested by the fact that that
was the only 'bg job" the cracksmen have
undertaken In a quarter of a Century.

will consider James Rankin's applicatio n
for writ of mandate compelling the Con-
troller to audit James Rankin's bill for $3.50

Although great interest is manifested by
amateur Dilliardists in private matches at
some of the popular biIliard-Tooms, it is
strange that whenever professional con-
test or tournament Is arranged the patronage
is always discOuragingly poor. This state
of affairs in billiard circles is only accounted
for on the theory that there are not more
than half dozen professional players of
