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 recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Review.
Mr.. Blaze 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 q
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever
Mr.. Blaze sent to the nearest drug
store and got bottle of Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy, of which he had often
heard, and took a number of large
doses. He says the effect was wonder
full and in short time he was breath
ing quite easily. He kept on taking
the medicine and the next day was able
to come to Des Moines. Mr.. Blaze re-
CARDS his cure as simply wonderful.

A Hundred Ton Magazine
Order.

An event in periodical literature, not
without its significance to the general
public as showing the growth of the
reading classes, was the receipt on the
9th Of November by the Cosmopolition
Magazine of the order given below. A
single order from news company for
one hundred tons of magazines! That
is almost an event in the history of the
world. A like order has never before
beed made, and if past ratios be main
tanned it means considerable more than
half million circulation for the Dec
ember Cosmopolitan. Yet, when the
list of authors and artists in the Deem
Der number is examined, one is not so
much surprised. 1t contains the only
known unpublished manuscript of De

haps the most famous of European IL
Illustrators: After the Worlds Fair, hy

tions, to which the following artists
contribute: Hopkinson Smith, Kemble
Harry Fem, F o. Small. Atwood,
Henckel, Dan Beard. Remnant and
Remingte n Think of having the
World 5 Fair done by such expensive
men as Howells. Mark Twain and
Paul Bourget, ard sending such artists
as Charles S Remnant to Chicago for a
single number of a magazine TO be sold
for only Is cents, or by subscription 123
cents. A book publisher, preparing
such a book would not dare incur these
expenses short of S. 90 a copy. Is it
not a revolution that is an improvement
upon old methods revolution of vast

Thirty miles from the city of KIma-
mota, japan, is the volcano Asa San.
This volcano has the largest crater ~ the
world. II is more than thirty miles in
circumference, aud peopled by 1000
inhabitants. Think of walking for miles
among fertile farms and pros porous vii
lagos, peering into schoohouse windows
land sacred shrines we'll within the shell
of an old-;ime crater, whose walls rise
1900 feet all about you. 1t gives one a
queer feeling. Hot springs abound
,every where. In one place saw the
ibrick-red hot water UTILIZED to turn rice
mill. The inner crater is yearly half q
imile in diameter, and steady column
iOf roaring steam pours out of it.
The last serious eruption was in 1884,
when immense quantities of black asaes
and dust were elected aud carried by the
wind as far as Kumamota, where for
three days it was so dark that artificial
light had to be used. But what inter-
ested me most was to learn that out of
that od-time crater hal come not only
stream of pure water and many kind:
of farm products, but young men who,
seeking a wider school aud home than
the mouth of vigorous volcano, had
found their way to Kumamota, Kyoto
and America, aud were now foremost
among the Christian educators and
preachers of japan. The pulpit orator
of Osaka, the principal of an English
school at Kumamota, who is a graduate
of Andover, aud one Of the Doshishs
professors at kyoto, New Haven grad.

A story was printed recently of
leopard who was tanned by giving him
paper upon which lavender water had
been spriukled. The statement was made
that friends had been made with leopard
and lion in menagerie through the
medium of a bottle of perfume.
For number of years the keeper of
the carnivora house of the biological
Gardens in Philadelphia was an Irshmiu
named Shannon, who is we'll known to
Mail and Expressman, aud this man de-
veloped a fondness for his ferocious
charge which was simply astoan ding,
and he took as much car. of then as he
did of his own children. Among them
was pretty black coated animal of tue
jagular or panther tribe, and to every
body connected with the garden, with
the single exception of Shannon, this
beast was tbs most treac leroIs and for
.nldable of the collection.
With Shannon he was as gentle as a
kitten. The keeper has whiled away
many an hour, seated on the ledge of the
cage. his back turned to the animal-an
act which of itself would have been fatal
to anyone else-and his hand thrust
through the bara, holding scented
handkerchief.
The cat would lie on its back for
hours, purring conteatediy over the
handkerchief and seemingly taking great
delight in burying its face in the piece
of perfumed linen. Shannon could never
tell whether there was any virtue in the
perfume, or whether the animals docility
was owing to its liking for him, but
since he left, more than year ago, the
new keeper has been unable to make
friends with the animal and admits that
he has not tried the perfume, and, what's
more, he don't intend New York
Mail and Express.
