A YOUNG Sailors Lucky Strike on Shore


About the middle of last November, John
Z. White, of f22 Pear ST., Philadelphia, ar
rived in Belfast on coasting vessel. lie
was about 90 years of age, intelligent and
well educated. having left crack military
school in North Carolina, when boy in or
der to experience the romance of going to
sea. He had in so doing, contracted Sc
we're and intractabie form of rheumatism,
from which he had suffered intensely for
nearly six months, large part of which
time he had passed in hospital. One of his
feet was so swollen and distgured that he
supposed he would never again be able to
wear a boot upon it. Stating his case to Mr..
r. II. Moody, leading druggist, he asked
if he could recommend to him any good pa
tent medicine, the doctors having failed to
do him any good. Mr.. Moody sold him a
bottle of Rodolf's New Medical Discovery
Mr.. White, in writing to his mother, Nov.
30th, announced the result as follows:
1t was the most miraculous cure on rec
Oru- just MINK was instantly renewed
on taking only two doses. | suppose it was
near six o'clock in the evening when went
to one of the parties. took a dose then,
and one before retiring; and you may not
believe me, but when | awoke the next
morning, il seemed that | had forgotten
something. The pain was completely gone :;
and since then have been fast recovering,
and at present am completely cured, and
have only taken one bottle.
Mr.. Moody, early in December, received
the following letter from Mr.. Whites
mother:
Mr.. II. II. Moopy.
BELFAST. MAINE.
DEAR Sir My son requests me to send
you the letter he wrote me from Philadel
phia, in regard to your wonderful medicine
and miraculous cure. | forward il with
my sincere thanks for the benefit my son
has derived from the use of your wonderful
medicine. Yours, etc,

In an article il the Forum for February
on a practical remedy for the evils of I'M
migration. Mr.. Gustus H. Schwob, who is
the New York manager of the North Ger.
man Lloyd Steamship Company, says tina,
there is one method of practically restrict
ing immigration. The steamship com
p.ny." says this gentleman, ''can be and
should be held responsible for the immi-
grant, and in ease it should appear that the
status of the immigrant was incorrect
| " given, the steamship company
should be obliged to return him
and would fail back upon the
agent through whom the passenger hat
been booked. In case any wilful violation
of the regulations on the part of the agen
or connivance with the immigrant is shown
the steamship company would be liable tt
fine or penalty. which it would proceed
to collect from the guilty agent. The
steamship agents in Europe are now more
or less familiar with the requirements o.
the United States laws governing immigra
ton, and are now held by the principa
steamship lines responsible for persons ac
eepted By them in violation of the presen
regulations. They are therefore in posi-
ton to apply any further stringent rule
that may be prescribed by our government.
