Pains in the Heart REGION.

Pains in the region of the heart are
common, and the general dread of this
disease makes many people imagine that
they have heart disease when there is any
local affection in this region. Many who
think they are suffering from heart dis
ease have their pain caused by the pres
sure of the stomach when distended with
food or gas. Neuralgia or muscular
rheumatism of the chestwall will give
similar pains in the heart region. which
may readily be thought to come from
heart disease. The obscurity which in
wolves the whole subject of the hearts
nervous system makes it impossible to
tell definitely about such pains. Various
drugs, which will slow the action of the
heart, will sometimes give relief. But il
is necessary first to ascertain positively +
the heart is really affected.
Those who suffer from such pains can
frequently discover the cause better than
the physician. There is no reason why
such pains should give cause for alarm.
Even though neuralgia or rheumatism is
causing pain in that region it is not essen
TALLY dangerous. The best plan at such
times is to keep in a dry place. avoid
draughts of wind, rain or wet weather.
and remain in lying posture for hours.
This gives the heart rest and gradually
strengthens it. Hot, dry applications
over the region are always good. Those
suffering from neuralgia and heart dis
ease SHOULD always apply hot tlannels
over the region OF the heart when the
pain is severe. This will prevent the
neuralgia from settling in this organ.

A Cheap Ride.

A fashionable lady got out of her car
riage at Tifany's one afternoon recently.
Before entering the store she was stopped
by young elocution teacher whom she
had betriended on the occasion of a recent
benefit. 1t was showing heavily at the
time, and the teacher entreated the priv
ilege of using the carriage to reach des-
tination several blocks away. The lady
was somewhat startled by this request.
but as she intended to stay in Tiffany's )
for an hour or so she felt it a charitable
duty to save the thinly-dressed young
teacher from the possibility of pneumo-
MIA. After making her purchases she
came out of the store. Her carriage had
not returned. She waited patiently for
half an hour or so, sent for a cab and
went home. About o'clock that night
her coachman drove up at her house to
report that the teacher had used the
equipage all afternoon to call on her
patrons and deliver cards for reading.
They do such things and say such things
in Bohemia that it is never conventional.

tul things continually occur.-New York

SOCIAL REVELATIONS.
Their Use-The Lessons That Societ,
Teaches To-Day.


Teaches To-Day.
Shall follies pass unmentioned? 1t is
even harder to decide what is foolish than
to decide what is criminal and what is
brutal. The growth of every social group
must be assisted by knowledge of the
customs of other groups. 1t is not essen
tial that isolated facts relating to few per-
sons and having no particular signifi-
canoe be known, but other facts having a
wider significance and the telling of
which cannot painfully affect any indi-
vidual excepting for substantial, senti-
mental reasons may, it would seem,
properly become widely known. Such
knowledge acts as a powerful agent in
the rectifying of popular errors, sitting
that which is essentially evil from that
which is only conventionally evil, and
setting forth the proper basis of actions
in clearer lights and stronger colors. For
instance, it is said in criticism of the
women of certain city that they venture
out after nightfall without male escorts.
Adjacent cities stand on tiptoe to look at
these shameless creatures. The air is
filled with dust and stones hurled at them
by scandalized civilization. But the
women persist. Their marketing, shop
ping, calling and visiting places OF amuse-
ment in the evening goes placidly on.
BY and by a scientist investigates the
facts and finds that these women are as
safe on the streets as they are in the most
sacred, exclusive, down-lined nests of
homes; that the city is quiet and we'll
lighted, and that assaults upon women
who mind their own business are practi-
cally unknown. Next a philosopher arises
who teaches the people that the Turkish
women's customs of wearing wells in the
presence of men is no more a superstition
than the custom of women remaining in
doors after twilight in localities where
there is nothing to fear outside. He
teaches that acts should be approved
or condemned for rational reasons, and
not because they conform or do not con-
form to standards that had their origin
among different environments, and grew
out of conditions which no longer exist.
A few listen, popular prejudices weaken,
nationality grows, and gradually large
numbers of women learn to adjust their
movements to real, not tanciful, en-
vironment. Thus social revelations may
be conducive to benefits neither suspected
nor intended by the revealers. They may
lead to discoveries that tendencies popu-
larly supposed to be toward disease are
really toward health.-Clara Dixon Da-
wilson in North American Review.

MARYSVILLE TRLEGRAPHER SKIPS.
He Took Some of the Company's
Money With Him.
Arrested at Ashland, but Subsequently,
Released Upon His Relatives
Squaring the Matter.

f. X. Egenhoff, the manager of the
Marysville Postal Telegraph office,
skipped on the Oregon express Saturday
morning, and before the sun had set last
evening he was in Jail in Ashland, Or,
on charge of embezzlement. So SAYS
the Marysville appeal of yesterday.
This bright young man was sent to
Marysvillea few months ago to fill the
position occupied by Joe Strict. He had
not been there long before he became ill
with scarlet fever, and he evidently did
not feel quite recovered, as he made up
his mind to have some change of air at
the expense of the company for which he
was working.
An arrangement exists between Ride
outs bank and the Postal Telegraph Com
pany whereby their local agent is allowed
to draw on the bank for sum not to ex-
ceed $500.
At 2 O'Clock on Friday afternoon Egen-
hoff made his appearance at the bank and
presented an order for 1886, drawn on the
Postal Telegraph Company. He asked
that he be given $3.50 in gold coin and a
certificate OF deposit tor Sl0O in his own
name. The teller was pleased to accom-
modate Mr.. Mackay's agent, so he COM
piled with his wishes, and the young man
lett the bank as composed as if he had not
committed serious crime which would
send him to the States Prison.
AS soon as the telegraph Office was
opened yesterday morning Marshal
Maben received the following telegram
from Chief of Police Crowley of San
francisco: ''Please render Pacific
Postal Telegraph all assistance possible
in Egenhotf case"
Whlle he was wondering what this
meant he received the following tele-
gram from the Superintendent of the
Postal Telegraph Company, San Fran
cisco:
please call at the Rideout bank and
get particulars of payment by them of
S435 to f. X. Evenhof yesterday. Try
and ascertain his whereabouts, and have
him placed under arrest. Use the wires
freely in order to locate him."
Marshal Maben went to the Rideout
bank where full particulars were fur
nlshed him. The order that the young
man had cashed had not been issued by
the company.
He telegraphed at once to Railroad Con-
ductor Connors at Red Bluff, giving him
a description OF the young man, and re-
celved the following answer: "He went
north of here"
teiegraphed to Ashland, Oregon, and
other northern cities, and later he re-
ceived the following telegram from Ash
land: City Marshal Gregory has
Egenhoff in custody here holding him
pending Mr.. Storrer's effort 10 secure a
settlement of the matter with his family
and himself.'
A later telegram was to the effect that
the matter had been settled and the
prisoner released.

DREW WILL TRY AGAIN

De1eated by Rodgers Demurrer, He
Files an Amended Complaint.
The demurrer of John B. Rodgers to
the complaint of Warren Drew, who asks
that Rodgers be ousted from the Office OF
Chief of Police, and that it be given to
him, was argued before Judge Catlin, and
IN reference to the statement in the COM
plant that in a proceeding in the Superior
Court, entitled NJ. NJ. Drew VS.. John b.
Rodgers, judgment of the court was
rendered, wherein the election of Rodg-
ers and his certificate of election were
cancelled and set aside.
w. Ill. Devlin, attorney for Rodgers.
made the point that this pleading was nm,
certain, in that the date of the Judgment
was not averred; and, also, that it was not
averred that the Judgment was now in
full force and effect; and, further. that
the complaint was ambiguous and uncer-
tain III other respects.
Judge Catlin held that the objections
We're well taken, sustained the demurrer.
and gave the relator, Drew, ten davs in
which to answer
In the afternoon Drew filed an amended
complaint, covering the points declared
weak III the first complaint.
