EAU DE COLOGNE DRUNKARDs.

The craving for stimulant of some
sort or other which comes to exhausted
nature after round of dis sipation, night
in and night out, during the season. is
undoubtedly responsible, says the Phil
adelphia Times, for the existence of
cologne drunkards among the classes of
women who would never think of taking
brandy or whiskey, and who, because OF
the understanding name of their tipple,
think it's effect equally harmless.
Is there woman living who has not
at some time or other taken a little
swallow of cologne to sweeten the breath
before starting to ball, reception, or to
meet some one below stairs? Can you
not remember the momentary exhilara-
ton that the burning liquid brought TO
your senses and the added sparkle to
your eyes? If you were at all blue or
depressed how much better you felt after
that little sip of the understanding
fluid.
For some that little sip lays the foun-

4 spell Of sickness
is due when the systems weakened,
and the blood impure. It's what
you must expect.
But it's what you must prevent,
too. And DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery prevents as well as
cures. 1t invigorates the liver and
kidneys, purifes and enriches the
blood, sharpens the appetite, i'm
proves digestion, and restores health
and strength. For Dyspepsia,
oliver Complaint" and every form
of Scrofulous, Skin, or Scalp Dis
eases, as Salt-rheum, letter, cry
sipelas, or any blood-taint, it's an
unequaled remedy.
It's not like the sarsaparillas,
which claim to be good for the
blood in March, April and May.
At all seasons alike, and in all cases,
the Discovery" alone is guarap-
teed If it doesn't benefit or cure,
you have your money back.
It's the cheapest blood-purifer, no
matter how many doses are offered
for a dollar, for you pay only for
the good you get. But it's the
best, or it couldn't be sold SO.

dation of habit as strong as that of
whiskey or morphine. Day by day the
frequency and size of the lips increase,
though women never drink cologne as
men do whiskey, as a sip is all that is
swallowed at one time. The confirmed
whiskey drinker would require time to
acquire the col ngne habit, as the latter
drink is much stronger than the meanest
combination of fusil oil and carpet tacks
ever sold for fifty cents a quart under
the name of whiskey.
Cologne is really nothing less than
straight alcohol, sweetened with few
drops of some pleasant smelling oil or
essence. In cologne there is So per cent
alcohol: in whiskey from 40 to go per
cent. There you are, and you see that
a delicate, refined woman who would as
soon drink poison as take glass of
whiskey, pours down her throat N little
sips a compound that is far more hurt
full in its effects, and almost as much
stronger than whiskey as whiskey is
stronger than water.
The society woman, who has her dress
ing tables we'll supplied with all sorts of
cologne and toilet waters, will tell you
at the conclusion of any entertainment
that the cologne bottles are decidedly de-
pleted, proving that cologne fiends,
either in the first stages or in the m )re
advanced period of the habit, have been
among her guests. The silver flask,
which was once thought to be only APP
propriate for wicked man, finds in the
cologne drunkM d a ready purchaser, as
it is carried everywhere that she goes,
and surreptitious sips taken in all places
serve to empty the flask and swell the
druggists, bill. Cologne is no cheap
tipple in any sense of the word, and
the wise woman will avoid it's dire inhu-
ence as she shuns the contents of a
bottle marked poison.

EYES AND EARS

Have we that we may see and hear;
brains, that may reason and understand;
so there's little excuse for much of the
suffering that is tolerated. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is fast becom-
ing the one recognized remedy for all
diseases resulting from thin, impure i'm
poverished blood.
Indigestion and dyspepsia, scrofulous
affections, liver and kidney diseases,
sores and swellings, catarrh and con-
sumption, are blood affections. With
purified, enriched and vitalized blood,
they flee as darkness before the light
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the only guaranteed blood-purifier and
liver invigorator. Sold on trial. Money
promptly returned, if it doesn't benefit
or cure.

There is no doubt that persons are

tropics. On warshlps no one is allowed
to sleep on deck, and the lunar rays
therefore cannot reach them, but on
merchant vessels, where there is less
discipline, especially in hot weather, tars
sleep on deck, and are often picked up
insensible in the morning.

A Double Tragedy.

Riverside, Cal, Oct. 16. - A terri
bic double tragedy occurred here at
noon today. w. E. Wristley, who
has been separated from his wife for
some time past, and who was under
indictment for arson, weht to the
house occupied by Mrs. Wristley,
and after stabbiug her to death went
to his room in the Park Hotel and
blew the top of his head off with a
revolver.
Wristley and his wife have not
lived in harmony, and good many
expected-their differences would term
mate as they have, Wristley, be-
for marrying the woman he killed
today, was respected, hard working
man, but the unfaithful conduct of
his wife has led up to the present
bloody tragedy.
The woman was in the Police
Court last Saturday on charge of
dlsorderly conduct, and was under
orders from the police to leave town.

You allude to my bent of mind

as different from yours. There
seems to be hidden III this language
as there was In some of the langu-
age you used in your former letter.
a covert sneer. My friend, you are
right; my bent of mind and yours
differ most essentially, and my edu-
cation and surroundings have been
different from yours.

bask in the smile of millionaires

are with the rich, mine with the
poor; i have associated with both
rich and poor, you with the rich
only. When clad in the rough garb
of miner, with hands calloused by
toll, l bore myself as proudly and in
dependently as when clothed in
broadcloth, when hands softened by
idleness. In a rough school l learned
to sympathize with labor; in rough
school | saw learning open her pages
as wide to the son of toll, seated up
on his rough bench, as to the rich
man, seated in his cushioned chair.
My association with both classes
taught me that the poor man was
frequently the superior of the rich
one in ability, intelligence, honesty
and every manly quality. learned
to respect the man, not his money.
These lessons you haved never learn

would take many years to coin the

The minis could be put in shape in

The neglect of President Cleve-
land to pay Mrs, Gen. Grant any So
cial recognition while she was in
Washington, is something unprece-
denied and is creating a great deal of

was saving the Union while Cleve-
land was hiring his substitute in
Buffalo. Cleveland seems to be

"Crinoline, replied the young man, cas-
we employ it, is not likely TO detract
from feminine grace or loveliness. On
the contrary, all I desire is to give con-
sistent appearance to the materials en-
ployed, and for that purpose some con-
venient and as light as possible material
has had to be adopted. Alpaca woven
with horsehair is about the least weighty
