My wife was a great sufferer for over
ten years with a complication Of disorders
from which it seemed she was doomed, a.
try what we might in the line Of doctors
appeared a failure. They were good doc
tors, too. DIR. Agnew Of New York who
is world-famed, told her that without an
operation that would cost her 81, coo the
case was incurable, and that even with an
operation the chances were even only
This was practically the sta ement of ali
prominent physic ans of the continent.
The principal trouble was an abscess
and distress IN the region of the
kidneys. There was a constant hemor-
rhage; we thought she would bleed to
death; her chest was as sore as boil, and
she was partially paralyzed, besides hav-
e catarrh of the bladder. We prepared
for the inevitable, when D.. Price of Seat.
tie told us that be knew of some remark

that my wife has completely recovered. 1t

A Suggestive use Of photography has
been recently made. Landscape features
are photographed here and there, figures
being posed TO fit the theme. The diff
ferent parts are then collected into an
effective group, and the assembled
groups are rephotographed to form one
complete picture. Something OF tins
kind has been done by artists in cyclic
ramic painting, the different views be
ing grouped together in sections and
painted on the canvas in connected
groups to form Il complete representa-
tion of a vast stretch of landscape. New

A Convenient Paper Pad Holder.

Every member of the noble army Of
scriyeners should feel grateful for a new
paper pad holder which has recently
come out at London. The holder is a
square Of wood, with a raised fiat bor-
der on the left side and across the bot
tom the pad of paper fits into the angle,
and the whole block can thus be held
with the greatest possible ease in the
left hand, in any position most conven-
lent to the writer.
The underneath part of the paper pad
is sheet Of thick blotting paper, and as
each sheet is torn off when covered it
can be thrust in between the holder and
pad, not only without fear of blotting,
but also thereby helping to maintain
the pad at the same level to the end. To
those who love to scribble their lucu-
brations on their knee, in bed or any
where, in fact, except at a desk, an in
vention like this paper pad and holder
will come as most decided boon and
blessing. York Journal.

edy is ALLcocK S Porous PLAsTERs. These
plasters are 3t an experiment; they have
been in use for over thirty years.
and their value has been attested by the
highest medical authorities, as well as by
voluntary testimonials from those who

ALLCocK's Porous PLAsTRRs are purely
vegetable and absolutely harmless. They
require no change of diet, and are not af.
fected by wet or cold. Their action does
not interfere with labor or business; you
can toll and yet be cured while hard at

The Prayer Wheel of India.

The prayer wheel consists of a metal
box about as big around as one which
holds boot backing, and about twice as
deep. Through it wire is stuck, and
is fastened into a handle a foot long.
Inside the box there is a roll of prayers
written in Thibetan characters, and the
worshiper rattles off prayers at the rate
of 100 minute by giving the handle d
twist and setting the box to rolling.
Each roll records a prayer. Every
prayer does away with one or more sins
and puts brick in the pavement which
leads toward heaveu.-Frank G. Car

Who Gan Tell?

An eastern correspondent sends us the following clipping from an "Epi- tsph" of 1883, and asks us if it is g fabrication. Let us hear from some of our local archeologists in regard to the matter, as we cannot undertake to v0uch for the absolute veracity of the Epitaph's statements before it was under the present management:
 '.RELICs OF THE STONE AGE.
 "The most interesting find lately made was tomb near the Needles, n the line of the Atlantic x Pacific roa,i, at depth of l73 feet from the surlac. |. In it were found huge skeleton, lD sitting position, with its k.,ees drawn up to it's head and clasped in bon. embrace with it's tlesaless arms. At it's feet were several large bowls, orig inally made of reddish clay, but hard- ened by the lapse of ages into q sub stance resembling flint. A tablet Was inserted in the wall at it's head bearing a long inscription Tn hieroglyphies anu covered with rude limitations of some evtinct species of creature, half animal half reptile. A nun Der of ofimplemenis of warfaae were also found. Among them store ax, the handle and head being of stone, while the edge was formed of iron of great hardness mor- tised into flint. The remains of a petrified forest was passed through before the tomb WAS reached"

A Mystery.

How the human system ever recov- CTS from he bad effects of the nanseouS medicines often literally poured into it for the suppositive relief of dyspep- sia, liver complaint, constipation, rheumatism and other ailments is a mystery. The m schitf done by bad medicines is scarcely less than that caused hy disease. If they who are weak, bilious, dyspep,ic, constipated or rheumatic, would ofl.ner 5e guided oy the experience of invalids who have thoroughly tested HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, they would in every instance obtain the speeJiest aid deiivable from rational medication. This medicine is q searching and at the same time thoroughly safe remedy, derived from vegetable sources, and possessing, in consequence of it's basis of pure spirits, properties as u medicinal stimulant not to be found in the fiery l"cOl bit ters and stimulants often resorteJ to by the debliitated, dyspeptic and languiJ.
