TIE cure for tuberculosis is again
exciting European physicians. Dl
Sannelongue claims to have made 3
discovery greater than that of DR..
Koch, and that is that tuberculosis
can be cured by injection of the chic

nouncement before the Academy OF
Medicine in Paris and of his expert

THERE is always something IN st.
Louis to interest the stranger who
fails to make railroad connection. Just
at present one of it's enterprising
journals announces that the way to
test the good breeding of dog is to
take the animal by the tail, and carry
it block by that appendage. If the
dog doesn't bite, it is a sure sign that
he took prize at a bench-show.

One Way of Making u Living,

There seems to be no limit to the variety
of ways in which dollar can bc earned by
sharp witted man. I know one who
makes comfortable living by attending
auction sales Of furniture He is not in
collusion with tho auctioneer; in fact he
will only attend such sales as are genuine
and pcrenptory, where every article is sold
for the highest figure bid, no matter how
low that may be. My friend simply trades
on the weakness of human nature, espe-
cially OF the feminine variety. Many
women attend these sales, and are really
desirous of securing certain articles, but
shrink from the publicity of trying to out
bid some other would-be purchaser.
They prefer to give two or three dollars
ndvance on the price paid by the successful
bidder. This nun secures all he can OF the
best bargains offered, and then disposes of
them at a small advance upon his OUTLAY
to one or other of the disappointed bidders.
1t is not unusual for him to clear from ten
to twenty dollars day. There is no loss.
for even If the articles are left on his hands
he gets his money back by sending them to
general auction room.-New York Tele-
