A WOMANS' REMEDY FOR MILAN
MATORY RHEUMATISM.

I am an old sufferer from infammatory
rheumatism. The past winter it came on me
again, very acute and severe. My joints
swelled and became infamed, sore to touch
or almost to look at. Upon the urgent re-
quest Of my mother-in-law, I tried Cham
berlain's Pain Balm 10 reduce the swelling
and ease the pam, and to my agreeable sur
prise it did both. I have used three fifty
cent bottles and believe it to be the finest
thing for rheumatism, pains and swellings
extant. d. r. Carr, 1885 Harrison St., Kan

Ew CASTLE, Jan 25.-It is said that
superintendent Holiday Of the Delaware
division, has at last decided TO grant the
request of the three hundred or more
citizens, taxpayers and patrons of his
road, who some time ago prayed through
the EVENING JOURNAL for n new station
to be erected at the battery. IL Is said
that the railroad officials have decided TO
put up one Of the prettlest little stations
that can be found along the line, and for
this purpose, surveyors we're here yester
day drawing out plans for new building
10 is further said that the station will not
only be complete in all its appointments
and have waiting rooms for men and
women, but will have a ticket Office, so
that patrons of the road will not have to
leave the trains aud hurry through dark
and storm TO the main ticket Office at the
outer station.

CHARGE TO PROFIT AND LOSS.
Senator Ross Entertains His Friends at

An oyster supper in the Catacombs

street cost Senator Ross S35 several
days ago. The general wanted TO enter
tain few of his friends who were
members of the General Assembly In
anticipation of the event he had ordered
several barrels of oysters from a Seaford
dealer. They came, and at the time
appointed, the guests arrived-SenatJr
Ross among them. They went into the
catacombs ana began TO eat oysters from
the shells
"Rall, where did you get those
oysters2' asked Senator Ross, after he
had eaten few

The pugnncious Anglo.saxon.

Men of peacel No, we are nothing
of the sort. The modern nglo-Saxon
is fighter, as his savage ancestors
were. He goes into war with zest
as keen as any other nations and
pluck which is-or at least he thinks
it is-a little better than any. Be
tween his wars he fights the lesser
battles of the football field, the pugil
istic ring, the baseball diamond or
looks on and shouts approval while
others fight. His boys learn to dou-
BILE their fists almost as soon as to
walk. Their favorite Bible stories
are of David's fight with the Philis
tine giant and the muscular exploits
of Samson. They go to school to be
taught to venerate the classic deeds
of the fleet footed Achilles and the
masterful Herakles, and to regard as
the modern successor of those an
cient heroes the youth who among
his schoolmates has the quickest eye
and the most powerful biceps. How

a Luminous Tree.

One of the most remarkable of trees
or shrubs grows near some springs
about II miles north of Tuscarora.
1t is six or seven feet high, with a
trunk which at its base is three times
the size of an ordinary mans wrist.
1t has numberless branches and
twigs, and resembles somewhat the
barberry. Its truly wonderful char
acteristic is its luminosity, which is
so great that on the darkest night it
can be plainly seen a mile away. A
person standing near could read the
finest print by its light.
Its foliage is extremely rank, and
its leaves resemble somewhat those
of the aromatic bay tree in shape,
size and color. The luminous prop
erty is due to a gummy substance,
which can be transferred to the hand
by rubbing and with the tranfer the
phosphorescent light, while that on
the leaf disappears The luminosity
is thought to be due to a parasitic
form. The Indians regard it with
and will not come near
it even in daytime. THEY give it a
name which means witch tree y

FILTHY LucRE.
Many Prefer Dirty Note to New One,
Especially In the West.

Many Prefer a Dirty Note to a New One,
Especially In the West.
The raid that was made on the
treasury department for new notes
and coins by the visitors in Wash
ington during the Grand Army en-
campment and the 100000 and
more old torn bills which they lett
behind indicates what rarity a
crisp, new note is in the west. In
Washington people have got to be
quite fastidious about their money.
That which is fresh and clean is
right at their hand, and when note
begins to get little soiled they do
not care to handle it. Notes such as
are regarded as in good condition in
Chicago and other western cities
would not circulate for day in
Washington Pocketbools are sell
dom used there except for small
change, the correct thing being for
those who have money to carry the
new bills in an envelope without
folding them, so as to preserve their
newness.
A Washington man going west can
mark the stages Of his progress by
the changing condition of the money.
In the cities of the far west it is bad
enough, but in the country places
and among the farmers generally
after passing the Ohio new note of
small denomination is thing almost
unknown Even in Minneapolis men
from Washington who carried crisp
81 notes in the Original packages, y
just as they came from the treasury,
found occasionally places where they
could not pass the money because it
looked ''too new to be good" A
good many of the street car conduc-
tors refused to take the new notes,
but a dirty bill, all patcheAand al
most free from design, was taken
without question as the proper thing.
It is said at the treasury department
that comparatively little money
comes in from the west for redemp-
ton.
Great quantities of these notes
don't come back for redemption, and
in the final run of years the govern
ment is much the gamer by it. The
trouble is that, while the treasury is
always ready to destroy the old notes
and give new ones in their place,
there is no provision for transporta-
ton of the notes, and the amount of
express charges from distance pre-
vents their being sent in for redemp
ton. In 1882 congress made an ap-
preparation for the payment of such
express charges and for once the en-
tire country got a new set of green
backs. Since then there has been no
appropriation for that purpose, and
the national currency is sadly in need
of repairs. Philadelphia Tele

English View of Our Cooks.

The American is an admirable cook
lin theory; in practice indeed he
may fail. The rush of modern ideas
is too great for him. The sewing ma
chine, the reaper and the corn ele-
vator take up too much time. The
application of electricity and steam
to the arts of peace and the ever pres
ent cares brought on him by the
working of the finest constitution in
the world distract him from his boil
ing and his baking. He has indeed
the same interesting reason for neg
lecting his clam chowder and his
baked pork and beans, that most in
genious and admirable of all Ameri-
can kitchen products, that our King
Alfred had for letting his hostess
cakes burn-immersion in the poll
,itics of his country
Nevertheless the native born Amer
lean has invented greatly. Clam
chowder itself, as mere work of
art, reflects as much credit on his
nation as vol au vent fnanciere
brings honor to France. Black and

The PIucky SpanieI.

Captain Williamson was shooting
in India, with a spaniel, which ap-
parently found some game which his
master guessed to be hare ''The
dog came to a stand over a bank,
wagging it's tail, with ears up and
his whole frame in a state of ecstasy,
I expected that he had got hare
under the bank, and as the situation
was in favor of getting a shot I ran
toward him with more speed than 1
should have done had 1 known that
I should find a tiger sitting up and
staring Paris in the face. They were
not three yards asunder AS soon as
the dog found me at his side he bark
ed, and giving spring dashed at the
tiger"
His owner admits that his own
alarm was so extreme that he did not
observe the further demeanor of
either till he saw the tiger cantering
away, followed by the little dog bark
ing. 1t Is of course just possible that
the tiger was nervous" and that
the little dog merely exhibited the
impudence habitual to little dogs, who
know that they can worry a horse or
bullock into beating retreat when
quietly lying down in a field-Lon-
