German

JUDGE J. 3. HILL, of the Superior
Court, Walker county, Georgia,
thinks enough of German Syrup to
send us voluntarily a strong letter
endorsing it. When men of rank
and education thus use and recon-
mend an article, what they say is
worth the attention of the public.

A rather curious institution is aris-
ing in Paris, that of dueling associ-
ates of lady journalists (says Paris
correspondent. On Saturday, the
lady known as Madame Scverinc, who
was intimately connected as a friend,
literary helper. and disciple of NJ.
Jules Wales, contributed an article to
the Journal, at which NJ. Massard, II
Socialist took offenSe. He called on
M. Nan, the editor to ask for Satisfac-
ton. 1t being impossible To call
Madame Sevcrine out, the answer was
that, in virtue of 4 fiction adopted for
the purpose of releasing NJ. Nau from
all responsibility in such cases.
Madame Sevcrine was supposed to be
the joint author with NJ. Labruyerc of
all her articles, lie had agreed to he
answcrablc for any otfenSe she might
give. NJ Massard then sent seconds
TO NJ. Labruyere. who, admitting that
he was The fighting partner OF the
lady, referred him to a couple of male
friends. The duel, which has taken
place, was fierce affair. 1t was
fought with foils In the second
round NJ. Labruycre received cut on
the chin, but the doctors saying that
it did not signify, there were five other
rounds The combat was ended by Nj.
Massard running his foil through the
forearm of NJ. Labruyere. Honor was
then declared satisfied, and Nj. Labru-
we're was driven back To Paris.

TIRE TIPS.
Some Sensible Advice Given to tho Man
Who Invented the Best.


"Tirc inventors are nuisance" de-
clares British Sport, ''even II at times
they do prove of profit to cycling
journalists or the proprictors of
cycling publications. Not week
passes but some man announces that
he has an invention which will revolu-
tionize the tire trade and make every
cyclist go in at once for the new idea.
And the best of il is that these men
think ii is quite the thing that they
should come MP to the office and waste
our time and theirs by discussing their
new inventions. TO start 10 argue
with them is great mistake; once
start and you never know when you
will finish II they ask you for an
opinion and you give 1t, it never falls
in with what they think. The fact is,
there are too many tires LOW on the
market, and until some radical inn
provcment is introduced tire introduc-
ton will not be very remunerative
game TO the introducers. We doubt,
il II radical improvement were pat
entcd in tires. whether it would not
be better to go to u good maker and
let him work it. 1t is so difficult to
get the public to believe i'm anything
placed on the market by new firm. y

The "sizzard ,"in contradistinction
of the word "blizzard," is the word
now used in the northwest TO describe
those days when the sun takes off his
mask and looks at us with both eyes
at once and the mercury runs up to
the top notch in the thermometer.
1t is a very appropriate and very
expressive word to use. When the
atmosphere contains a superabun-
dance of caloric, when the sidewalk
seems like so many live Goals; in
fact when all nature begins to ''sizz, .
then know for certainty a "sizzard''
has arrived.
