you need eight hours sleep take it by all

Making Money Out of the soars.

A Brooklyn druggist tells me that
since the Normannia came to port with
cholera on board his sales of cholera
mixture and disinfectants have doubled.
He wore a pleased smile when he said
this, as if he were not ill disposed to
have it so. He remarked also that the
manufacturers had added nearly a hun
bred per cent. to the cost of disinfec-
ants, so it ought to comfort us to know
that our efforts to keep cholera out of
our houses are being made to the en-
richment of few philanthropic chem
lists, and l suppose the retailer adds an
extra penny of profit too. It's an ill
wind that blows nobody good.
Some people are providing themselves
with medicines already to carry in their
pockets or keep ON the shelf anent a
stroke Of cholera, and some there be
who wash who have not done so in
long time before. There are some who
carry charms, like old cents, and cam
phor bags, and blessed rosaries, and GER
tain roots dug at the full of the moon
and things of that kind-things that can
do no sort of harm.
One physician said to me: 81 am GO
ing to treat my first case, or perhaps my
first hundred cases, exactly as / would
treat cholera morbus. will give slim
ulant for weakness, laudanum for pain
and will try the effect of salt solutions
to offset the waste of fluids that occurs.
Cholera germs are easy to treat, no mat
ter how it may be with cholera itself,
for they can't survive heat or dryness,
and acid is death to them. Brooklyn

His Life Strangely Saved,

The sturdy toes of John Daroski saved
him from a horrible death Saturday
He, with other workmen, was repairing
the West Penn railroad bridge over the
COnemaugh river at Livermore. A
freight train approached and all the
men but Daroski fed. He didn't see the
danger and was struck by the engine.
He was knocked off and fell head fore
most down through the bridge.
He did not, however, drop to the
rocky river bottom, fifty feet below, as
his companions expected. His toes were
caught between two ties in the bridge,
and there he hung, head downward,
while the slowly moving work train
passed over him. 1t was a horrible sit
uation, and the slightest movement
meant an awful death. Darosli's COM
panions ran upon the bridge, threw
looped rope around his body and pulled
him up. The man was unconscious, but
alive, and the doctors could find no
broken bones. He will recover.-Cor.

A Dog Fond of watermeions.

For some time l.. R. Tryon, who re-
sides in the western part of Westbrook,
has missed watermelons from his favor
lite patch, and several times of late has
found the whole melon a short distance
away secreted in the grass or some other
out Of the way place. He had noticed
that the stem had ragged appearance
as II it had been chewed. Sunday he
determined to unravel the mystery and
stationed himself out Of reach of obser-
walton near the patch. He had not re-
manned long when a small dog belong
ing to neighbor stole in, and selecting
one of the largest melons proceeded to
chew the stem until it became detached
from the vine, when with its paws the
animal began rolling it away. The dog
is the wonder of the communicable

A Modern Monte Criste.

A band of fabricators of false money
were arrested at Verona the other day.
In connection with them, or surmised to
be, is certain Basilio Giovanardi, of
whom the Italian papers recount extraor-
binary stories. He is thirty-three years
Of age, and is very well known in the
provinces near Verona, and has been
considered by the people there as a sort
of Count of Monte Cristo. His life, in
fact, seems to have been mystery.
Nine years ago he was poor work
man in a factory near Verona. One
day, however, he told his employers that
he would leave them, as he also was
going to do the signore (the gentleman).
In fact he went away, and after time
was seen in Verona well dressed, spend
ing money very freely and throwing
away 1000 franc notes at time on the
most silly amusements. Every one be-
gan to wonder where and how he had
fallen into such good fortune, but no
one could tell. He went in for horses,
and often had as many as thirty of them
at time in his stables. His rooms also
"NAC al a Iudu-
ner He would, however, sell off occa-
his horses and furniture and 90
off on long journeys, and always came
back evidently richer than ever. His
fingers were always covered with mag
niicent diamond rings, and he wore
priceless jewels on his person in the
shape Of scarfpins, watch chains, etc.
One day he returned to Verona with
a case full of gold Geneva watches.
This was heard of by the police and he
was arrested on the accusation of snug
Cling, but almost Immediately was let
off, as there was no proof, and he
showed a receipt which made it clear he
had bought the watches on his own ac-
count. In shop at Verona he showed
the proprietor, whom he knew, 10 notes
Of 1000 francs each that he had in his
pocket. On several other occasions he
was seen to light his cigars with ten
franc notes. The police, hearing of all
this, kept watch, and he is now arrested
rs having to do with the coinage of
false money.-London Tablet.

When the new ministers went down to
