deluded-the unhappy victim of
catarrh in the head. He's been
told that it can't be cured. Don't
you believe it. 1t can be, and it
is-no matter how bad or of how
long standing. 1t has been done
for thousands-by DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. Other so-called
remedies may paNiate for a time !;
this cures for all time. BY its
mild, soothing, cleansing and heal
ing properties, it conquers the
worst cases. Its makers offer,
in good faith, a reward of $500
for a case of catarrh which they
cannot cure. They are able to
pay it. Are you able to take it {?
The symptoms of catarrh are,
headache, obstruction of nose, dis
charges falling into throat, some
times profuse, watery, and acrid,
at others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody, putrid and often
eive; eyes weak, ringing in ears,
deafness; offensive breath E; smell
and taste impaired, and general
debility. Only a few of these
symptoms likely to be present at
once. Thousands of cases termi-
nate in Consumption and end in
the grave, without ever having
manifested all these symptoms.
DR.. Sage's Remedy cures the
worst cases. SO cents, by drug
gists.

ENGRAVING WITH DYNAMITE.
Figures Reproduced on Iron by Firing tho
Explosive Above Them.

Figures Reproduced on Iron by Firing tho
Explosive Above Them.
Among the many new uses to which
gIlnpowder and other high explosives
have been applied recently is that Of
engraving. BY means of the force gen.
Grated by the detonation OF these arti-
cles the lines of delicate leaves, grass
and insects have been impressed on the
surface of the hardest iron procurable
in the space of half second. By old
processes, says the New York Herald,
hours were consumed where machinery
was used and any attempt was made to
secure artistic results, and days where
manufacturers resorted to hand work.
Many recent experiments have been
made, mostly by officers of the army
and navy, which have demonstrated
the efficiency of the methods.
At Newport few weeks ago a heavy
charge of dynamite was exploded by
several officers who were delegated by
the government to test q new method of
electricity in fuses.
Somehow a small dried leaf without
the knowledge of the officers had
slipped in between the dynamite cart
ridge and the iron block from which the
charge haQ Deen nrcQ.
When the experiment had been COM
pleted the officers were surprised to find
the perfect imprint of leaf in the iron.
The most delicate lines were repro
duced with startling distinctness.
A series of experiments, which were
attended with remarkable results, fol-
lowed.
One of the officers who made the first
experiments is now in the city, and he
gave me an account of his discoveries
when I saw him at an uptown hotel
Cthe other night.
81 was rather surprised to find that it
was possible to reproduce the outlines
of perishable articles upon the surface
of iron by means of explosives" said he,
land was at first sceptical, although
had often heard that q candle could be
fred though an oak plank.
when we found the imprint of the
leaf we made several similar tests.
''They took place at the torpedo sta.
ton in Newport. We placed several
leaves and flowers between two plates
of boiler iron and then fired moderate
charge of dynamite on the upper plate.
"The exact outlines with even the
veins in the petals of the flowers were
reproduced in the hard metal.
"Other and more extended expert
ments were attended with similar re.
suits.
Another singular fact is that when
exploded under water the imprints are
much finer than those produced in the
open air. Frequently when wad OF
gun cotton is exploded beneath the sur
face of the water the explosive will
sink into the iron foundation so deer
that the sunken words and figures will
be reproduced in raised characters or
the iron"
Several manufacturers have followed
the example set by the officers and some
day probably dynamite will be put il
practical use as an engraver.

HORSES IN SPECTACLES.

The Queer Sight Recently Witnessed In
Moravlm
One of the curious effects of the
unwonted cold weather in Europe dur
ing the past winter was observed in
Austrian Moravia, where the inhabit-
ants are said to be very fond of their
horses, and humanely inclined toward
them.
For many weeks, says Youths Com
panion, the ground was covered with n
thick coating of snow. AS this was un-
usual, and the people found that their
own eyes were unpleasantly affected by
the intense whiteness of the snow, it
occurred to them that their horses must
be affected in the same way, and needed
protection for their eyes.
The farmers, therefore, procured
quantities of goggles and spectacles
with black, blue or green glass, which
they tied over their horses eyes when
ever they went out. ,..
A market day in Moravia during the
prevalence Of the great snow is said to
have been q funny sight. Scores of
horses, dragging WAGONS through the
snow, or else improvised slcds and
sledges, were seen in the streets, and
nearly every horse had on q pair of
blue or green spectacles. .......
White horses were especially comical,
and il they possessed sense of the
ridiculous, as some horses are thought
70 do, perhaps they wished that they
were black or chestnut, for on colored
horses the glasses were not SO conspic.
uous, ...... ....

Blatchford opened the telegram at once and read:
 Come immediately. Do not delay under any circumstances. The most important matter of your life. Come quick. SCRAGGs."
 The old man sprang to his feet in an instant, and rushed wildly out.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-10-09

You helped to do it. Goaway from me- My child is dying of want. I feel it. I know it. And you helped to lead me away from her and blind me to her rights and claims. Don't speak to me again. I want my poor, wronged child, and I'm going to find her.
 Then, before the astonished minister could collect his scattered senses, the old man was gone. He passed around the corner and entered his office, where, sinking into seat, he buried his face in his hands and wept.
 ''Oh, my God, my God,' he groaned ''what have I done? How cruel, how heartless have acted toward my own flesh and blood-my only child. How blind and brutal have been, and how bitter is the awakening to the enormity of my sin. Oh, for enc sight of my child, one word of forgiveness from her lips. l must find her. I must search the country from end to end for her."
 At that instant the door opened and a clerk came in. He approached the old man dit1idently, for he could not help seeing the great change that had come over him. He laid a telegram on the desk and without a word withdrew.

RAN AWAY WITH A BOY.
A Sixteen-Year-Old Rhode Island Youth
 Who Breaks Up Homes.

A Sixteen-Year-Old Rhode Island Youth
 Who Breaks Up Homes.
 PLAlNFIELD, Conn, Oct. 9.-Joseph and Lima Busha came to this town from Providence few weeks ago and engaged board at the residence of Joseph Dayon. Busha was first-class carriag3 painter and opened rooms in the shop of John Hickey of Jewett City. All went we'll with the young couple until a few days ago, when Lima visited some Rhode Isl and relatives.
 Not returning at the time agreed upon, her husband went in quest of his bride and learned news from her relatives aroused his suspicious. Lima, who is only 1G years old and petite blonde, re- turned home the day following her hus- bands visit to Rhode Island, and he ac- cused her of unfaithfulness. The quar- rel ended in Lina's disappearance. Joe followed her the next morning and found his wife in Providence. So en- ragged was he that he purchased revol- yer and followed his wife and her com- panion, who have disappeared.
 Busha is mentally affected by his wife's actions, and is roaming from place to place in search of the destroyer of his home.
 Mrs. Busha's companion is Joseph Le Clair who is only 16 years old, although he has been the cause of several family uuarrels

know it's the truth I'm speaking. Do you suppose God is going to give place in Heaven to man who has no place in his home or his heart for his own child? Not much He won't, and you can't buy yourself into His favor, as you do into Whcedler's, with the gift of money. As 1 said, you arc fool and worse. Talk about your religion! Why, there ain't a particle of it in this house, and there ain't 8 one of you that knows what Christianity is. Not single one of all of you knows any more about Christian ity than a pig
 Aunt Mitchell cast defiant glance around as she ceased speaking, and as she came to Mrs. Blatchford last, and noted the shamcd look of that lady, she gave q contcmptuous sniff. Hiram trcn!bled with rage and shame. He re- ;,lia2d only too well the truth of his sis tors words, but for all the world he wouldn't have acknowledged anything. With a great effort he controlled him self to a certain extent, and with toler- able firmnCsS said:

 Il shall not remain in this house an- other day, 1Iiram," Aunt Mitchell re- piled. "I feel now, and have felt from the first, that I am not wanted he @.
