SAVED FROM DROWNING.
How . Nine-Ycar-Oid Boy Rescued His
Little Brother.

! Little Brother.
A phys ian owning country seat in
New England, where his family We're
| accustomed to spend the summer
| months, taught his boys to swim as
soon as they were out of the nursery.
| His farm bordered lake, where the
greater part of the boys time was taken
up with boating, fishing and swimming.
One was nine and the other six years
old, and they were expected to take
care OF themselves
One day the younger child was seized
with cramp while in the water and
after screaming for help sunk out of
sight. The brother swan ont boldly
and got an arm under him before the
third downward plunge.
The youngster was unconscious and
helpless, but the older one contriyed to
keep him atioat with one arm while
striking out with the other for the
shore. He drew the little fellow ont
of the water. white, motionless and ap-
parently dead.
The rescuer had heard his father de-
scribe the treatment for resuscia ting

member it in detail. but he was Impress

He did not attempt to summon help

I This crude attempt to restore respi-
ration was repeated several times, I'M
til he was delighted to find the lips
moving and the eyes opening. The
young physician had not made strict
ly scientific application of the rules for
artificial respira tion, but the little fell
lows breath was restored.
Then two additional rules mentioned
by the father were remember. the
body was briskly rubbed ana then bun
died up with the jackets and dry
clothes which were on the bank.
With these measures for restoring
circulation recovery was well-nigh
complete. Then taking the child on his
back the rescuer started for the house,
where the mother received them with
open arms and an anxious face.
The patient was put to bed and the
father summoned from town, but pre-
cautionary measures We're hardly nee
essary. The nine-yeas-old physician
had done his work so successfully that
scarcely more than a sleeping draught
was required for the night,

The Old and the New.

Changes take place in the medical pro-
fessioa AS In all branches OF science. We
believe the greatest good will follow that
generous offer made by DR.. Greene OF "a
Temple Place, Boston, Mass, who invites
all p, rsons. far aud near, suffering from
any form OF disease. to write him de-
scription or their comp aints. and he will
send them, free of charge, complete ex-
PLANTATION of their diseases, with advice
how to lie cured. He gives mcst careful
and explicit attention TO all lett, rs and
explains each symptom so carefully that
you cannot fail TO understand exactly
what ails you.
DR.. Greene Is our most successful
specialist In curing nervous and CIR mic
dis ases. He is the discoverer of that
famous medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervurs
blood and nerve remedy, which is doing
such a vast amount Of good all over the
world. lie uses nothing In his practice
but harmless vegetable remedies. which
car in no manner injure you. This grea
system OF giving consultation and advice
through letter correspondence, free OF
charge, is especially important to the
poor and those living at "a distance from
large cities, as such consultation and ad-
vice were formerly attended by great ex-
pense. The doctor is having wonderful
sue cess in treating the sick through letter
rrespondence, and III you will write him
about your disc ise it will undoubtedly
lead TO your cure.

A SERIOUS BLOW.

The sinking of the Javary in the har-
Dor of Rio Janeiro is very serious blow
to the rebels. The Javary was one of the
most formidable vessels which Admiral
Mello had under his command. Indeed
but one, the Aquidaban, was considered
her superior and her loss is therefore all
the more severe on that account.
Whether Peixoto will finally succeed
in defeating the rebels it is not possible
to conjecture at this time, but the
chances of his success are
growing brighter. From the two
ships purchased in this country,
and now speeding toward Rio, the
government will receive great assist
ance Possibly with the land batteries,
which have already done so much
damage, they may be able to destroy or
drive away Mello's fleet. However, the
end of the struggle seems to be ap-
preaching.

MKANE'S LIBEL SUITS.

There is little likelihood that either
the New York World on the Brooklyn
Eagle will be at all perturbed because
the notorious Boss McKane Of Coney
Island has brought libel suits against
them. IL is very easy matter to insti-
tute such actions and in majority Of
cases they are begun solely for the pur-
pose of annoying or intimidating the
defendants
OF this character McKane's suits un-
doubtedy'are. He is not fool, by any
means, and lie is as well aware that no
jury of sensible men will return
verdict in his favor as he is that he j.
deserving OF punishment for his rascal
ity at Gravesend just prior TO the re-
cent election. His purposs Is to create
an impression that the charges made
against him are not true, but it is a
trick that has been worn threadbaro by
just such fellows as McKpne, vino have
been guilty of similar outrages against
laws and decency, and will therefore
deceive no one.
II McKane had any real defence, il he
hoped to prove his innocence of the
charges brought against him, he would
have awaited the result Of the prosecu-
tion in which he will soon figure rs
defendant. The fact that he ha, begun
three actions indicates fear OF the result
and an attempt to discount it. How
ever honest people in the Empire state
need have no doubt that this brazen pol
luter of the ballot will escape just pun
ishment. He may bluster, threaten
and intimidate as much as he pleases
but be cannot avert the chasiisement
which an aroused aud indignant public
demands shall be meted ont TO him.
