special from Evart, Mich.

TN. Bruce, Druggist, Evart, Mich: 1
want to say to you that Hibbard's Rheu-
matte Syrup is, in my opinion, the great
est medicine ever put up. You are fully
aware how lame and sore was at the
time you advised me to try the remedy,
my back and ankles were so sore and
lame and the pain SO severe, that l could
scarcely move about. Three bottles of
this remedy cured me when everything
else that tried failed. 1t is valuable
medicine. FRANK V. HANDY.
The above statement is true and it af-
fords me much pleasure to recommend
this medicine. G. N. BRUCE.

Matches.

Matches represent the difference be-
tween barbarism and civilization and
how much We owe to the intelligent
genius which has made them so cheap
that there is no one so poor that he can
not buy box of matches.
Years ago the making of matches fur
nished employment to thousands of girls
and boys. Little bits of wood cut the
length of the match were laid on strips
of wood in which notcheS had been cut
to hold them. The girls spread the
matches along so that each slip of wood
fell in the right place, laid another strip
of wood on top of it, and so on until a
dozen was arranged. These were clamp
ed together and then were ready for the
sulphur bath. After they had been dip
ped on both sides they were laid in
frames until dry, and then packed in
boxes.
Now all this is changed. The slips of
wood are handled entirely by machinery.
This has reduced the cost of production
very much, and, of course, reduced the
cost to the individual buyer.
1t was considered formerly that the
making of matches was very unhealth-
full labor, but it has been discovered
that with cleanliness and care it is no
more unhealthful than many other forms
of labor in which chemicals are EN-.
ployed.-EIc.

colloquial words. In this work, along
with well known loan words from re-
mote oriental tongues, we are surprised
to meet "Just the cheese" derived from
chiz, meaning thing also, Don't care
a DAMN" derived from dam, small
copper coin and equivalent for 'brass
farthing." Candy" sugar comes from
khanda, and means "brokep" sugar
"Chicane" and "cbicanery" are derived
through French usage from chaugan,
horsegolf, or what we call polo. game

time since it was imported into Europe

A 1RIIE GENTLEMAN.
George william Curtis Treatment of an
Ambitious Youns Reporter.

George William Curtis Treatment of an
Ambitious Young Reporter.
Some sixteen or seventeen years ago l
was a reporter ON one of the Chicago
papers. Ihad only been little while in
the business, and was both green and
ambitious. Now it happened that a
part of nv work was to visit the various
hotels every evening in the search for
personal items, the arrival of well
known people and the like. 1t was not
work of the highest order, but put my
heart in it and really think that | did it
well. One evening was standing in the
office of a certain hotel, which for the
purposes of this story need not be pre-
cisely identified, when l observed a
handsome, distinguished looking gentle
man enter, walk up to the desk and
register.
As he turned to say word or two to
the clerk stepped up behind him and
saw what he had written on the register.
1t was George William Curtis, New
York" l knew that Mr.. Curtis was
advertised to lecture on the following
would be good thing if could get an
interview for my paper with such dis
tinguished man. You see what an
ardent beginner in newspaper work l
was. In fact, was full of western en-
thusiasm, and l was not lacking in
cheek. So when Mr.. Curtis turned
away from the desk / summoned up all
my courage-and it did require consider
able-and accosted him.
"Mr. Curtis" said |. Il am a reporter
for The -, and | thought that perhaps
you might have something to say that
would be of interest to the people of
Chicago"
He turned and looked at me in the
kindliest way. 1 shall never forget the
geniality and good nature that beamed
upon me from his eyes and his whole
face nor the answer which he made to
my suggestion.
"Ah." said he with the most beauti-
full smile that l ever saw, "then you and
I belong to the same profession"
What could have been more thought
full and considerate to the raw young re-
porter? 1t has always seemed to me that
there could not have been anything said
better calculated to relieve my embar-
rassment and make me feel at home. At
the same time / never could get rid of
the impression that my answer was al
most as good as his remark.
Eyes" said 1, "Mr. Curtis, you are at
one end of it and l am at the other"
Of course he laughed right heartily at
my sally, and instantly we seemed on
the best of terms. Well, all he had to
tell me was that he was on lecture
tour and that he would speak in Chicago
the next evening. He was very willing
to tell me where he was going-I sup
pose he saw no objection to advertising
himself in that way-and after few
minutes pleasant chat l took my leave,
Mr.. Curtis giving me most gracious
''good night" The result was about
stickful in The - the next morning.
That was the only time l ever saw
George William Curtis in my life. 1t is
matter of deep regret to me, now that
he is gone, that / never went to hear
him lecture.-New York Tribune.

A Bright Scotch Lad,

Some year or two ago l was staying
near Grief, and visited the village
school, where I saw lad poring over
Homer The schoolmaster told me that
in the course of the last shooting season
he carried the game bags for party
over the moors. This he did with other
odd jobs to enable him to continue his
education.
In the party were nobleman (whose
name was given me, but which have
now forgotten) and an Oxford tutor. In
the course of luncheon one day there
was dispute between these as to the
exact wording of some phrase from a
Greek drama and the author. Seeing
some intelligence in the lads face, they
were led to ask him if he knew any
thing about the matter, when the lad
was able to tell them they were both
wrong, quoting the phrase Alright and
giving the name of the author.-Cor.

GUNS AND ARMoR PLATE.

GUNS AND ARMoR PLATE.
Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.
In the last week or two America has
had the satisfaction OF displaying to
foreign countries the skill of her in
ventors in the making of war material,
both offensive and defensive.
At Birdsboro, Pa, the French ma val
experts witnessed the firing of test
cylinder built to represent section of
the Brown segmental tube wire gun.
These officers were surprised at the eX-
traordinary pressure that this cylinder
sustained without injury.
In the matter of defensive armor, too,
European experts have been surprised.
The British Admiralty made test of
the American nickel steel armor plates
at Portsmouth a few days ago, and to
the amazement of all present except the
Americans, who knew the strength of
the armor, the tremendous projectiles
thundered with full force against the
plates produced no effect. Not crack
was to be seen after the heaviest ham,
mering that could be given, and when
the guns had been used to the extent of
their capacity, the defensive armOr was
intact and as capable of resistance as
before
With improved guns, and with armor
plate which can not be penetrated,
American men-of-war should stand at
the head of naval construction.
