Mr.. J. P. Blaize, an extensive real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa, mar
rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks OF pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that state during a recent
blizzard, says the Saturday ReUieao. Mr..
Blaize had occasion to drive several
miles during the storm and was SO thor
oughly chilled that he was unable to
get warm, and inside of an hour after
his return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr.. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store
and got bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, of which he had often heard,
and took number of large doses. He
says the effect was wonderful and that
in short time he was breathing quite
easily. He kept on taking the medicine
and the next day was able to come to
Des Moines.. Mr.. Blaize regards his
cure as simply wonderful. so cent

It is difficult to-day TO believe that

there was talk of war between them

cial and commercial hearts of the two
countries have long been beating with

DOGS AND CATS.
How They Were Valued by the Early En-
glish Laws. tu4

How They Were Valued by the Early En-
glish Laws. es
The worth of dogs is variously es-
timated; in the ten tn century the Kings
buckhound being valued at fifteenpence
when born, and one pound when fully
trained; while "a herd dog is worth the
best OK, and whosoever may
possess cur, though it be the king, its
value is fourpence." Cats, however,
are priced without distinction, there
being probably but one breed. Nor is
any extra value set upon those favored
cats, which, by reason of their royal
ownership, enjoyed the daily privilege,
accorded them pro verbally, of locking
at king. No matter to what family
or place it may belon g, "the worth of a
kitten from the night it is kittened until
1t shall open itseyes, is a legal penny,
and from that time until it shall kill
mice, two legal pence" fourpence be-
ing full value of.a cat, as of a sh eep, or
of goat. The qualities expected OF
her are particularly catalo gued. and
the list of them runs thus: To see, to
hear, to kill mice, to have her claws
entire, to rear and not to devour her
kittens, and If she be boughtand be de-
fcient in any one of those teithi, let
one-third of her worth be returned. -

TRAVELLING IN ALASKA.

1t Is Difficult and Periious In the Extreme.
A recently returned traveller from
Alaska, Mr.. Israel c. Russell, says that
he met with enough adventures in his
journeys to satisfy the most venture
some geographical explorer. The ex-
plorers got along mostly by climbing
over the steep walls of ice and snow,
and across immense fields of ice. In the
climbing, steps were cut in the ice, and
the members of the party slowly and
painfully dragged themselves up that
way. At almost any time a false step
would have precipitated the party thon-
sands of feet down the frozen precipicea.
On one occasion they were descending,
when they found that an avalanche had
carried away the steps which. they had
made in going up. The impromptu
staircase was destroyed for three huA-
dred feet, and they had to lower man
by q rope to chop out another, there
being no other wayfof getting down.
Such accidents as this were not unconn-
mon. Avalanches were continually fall
ing, rushing down the slopes with the
speed of railway trains, and with
roar like thunder, the sound being
audible twenty miles away. sl&
I & One night about II o'clock the party
was passing over bad place in the
Apassiz Glacier. Two men were in the
lead, drawing a sled. Suddenly they
disappeared, having fallen into assure
| in the ice, A projecting ledge about
| twenty feet below luckily caught them,
| else thew would never have been seen
again. They were hauled ont with
ropes. tTf. 3|
In the same neighborhood, the next
day. the party were travelling over a
great feefield,, and Mr.. Russell, turning
1 tolook back over the way he had come,
| was startled to see that the greater
| mart of the field had disappeared, leav-
ing an enormous hole of unknown
depth. Another time one OF the men
| tumbled into crevasse,ao cor narrow slit
| in the ice, and was only saved by the
| mack fastened to his shoulder, which in
terruptedE his fall through a twist in
the frozen tunnel which had yawned
for him.
i One would think such dangers suffi-
eient to chill the ardor for adventures
| In the most enthusiastic arctic explorer
1t looks fine TO return with hard-earnet
laurels, but the chances are grea
against the laurels, and in favor OF th'
ardent traveller finding an ignominious
grave in some ice hole, or at the bottom
of some unsusneeted preeipice.-Har

A strange Creature.

One Of the most unfortunate animals
in the world is the babakoto, or, as

vantage of resembling monkey with

for his lack of beauty-which is, Ia
brief, the ability to swing about on

the babalzoto cannot swing by his tall

The Tourist In Italy.

A yearly income of twenty million Z
dollars is handsome return to get for
the trouble of entertaining strangers.
This, IL is said, represents the amount
of gold spent in Italy every year by
tourists and visitors from foreign coun-
tries, Travelling American millionaires
and others contribute about third OF
the total amount; Englishmen and
others the remainder. The calculation,
which is made in report on Italian
trade issued by the British embassy, Is
probably sufficiently correct. Italy OBJ
tains this amount Of gold over and
above her earnings in other ways; and
the sojourner in the land Is the, only,
gold mine, He is certainly exploited
with zeal and thoroug hness which u
would be difficult to surpass. Perhaps
the opportunity might be taken to ask
that such profitable customer should
be treated a little more stenderly.l
Neither Italian hotels nor Italian rail-
ways are perfection; nor Is Naples quite
such clean city as IL might be.-St
