Blood as q Medicine,

Let me have three ounces of that
bottled blood quickp bids fair yet to
become a not uncommon order in the
corner drug store According to a well
known Philadelphia physician, startling
progress has been made in blood healing.
Or hematherapy. Blood is not only
life, he declares, sbut lives itself in
dependently It is highly organized
living Tissue simply in the trans lion
state. It can be made to live apart from
the body indefinitely in perfect condi-
ton and can then be returned into any
tissue by any opening at any time, when
it will Instantly resume its full creative
activity. 1t can. even be swallowed
when the patient, suffering from drain
ing of blood or hemorrhages, can take
no other drink. Death from blood star
walton will one day be exceedingly rare
indeed, and these corked up vital corpus
cles will be used not only for inlmi.

lingering cases. Philadelphia Record.

About the situation.

Along in 1868 Artemus Ward lee.
tured in Philadelphia and in the course
of his remarks said: 81 know a gentle
man who has watched the progress of
this war very closely, and who is oer-
tainly able to give an opinion on most
matters, and asked him what Ire thought
of the war. He said that after watching
the movements of the army carefully
and reading the newspapers, making in
quiries of army correspondents, getting
possessed of all the knowledge of the
heads of departments and from the re-
liable Geographic corps at Washington,
he'd be id if he knew what he did
think" A somewhat careful reading Of
the Mugwump press of the country leads
to the belief that the secret opinion OF
the bewildered editors of those organs
concerning the Cleveland administer
ton might be expressed in precisely the
same language. The rest Of the people,
not including cuckoos, know exactly
what they think, and it isn't compli-
mentary. -Indianapolis Journal

The Logic of Lender.

The young Detroit man had borrowed
SO from the rich old man, promising
to bring it back one week from date.
The millionaire let him have it, and On
time the borrower brought it back.
'Now, Mr.. Bullion, said the young
man, give been square with you in this
matter, and I want to borrow $50 for
two weeks. "
The old man shook his head.
Sorry" said he, but can't let you
have it. -
"Why not?'' and the young man was
greatly astonished.
Because you have disappointed ne,
and don't want to BIO disappointed
again. "
The borrower was more surprised
than ever.
"What do you mean by being disap-
pointed?'' he asked :.
'sThis, explained the money man.
ct let you have that SO, not expecting
ever to get it back again, and I did.
Now, if ( let you have $50, would ex.
pect to get it again, and never would.
No, sir, he added conclusivoly, ions
disappointment is enough. Good day,
and that ended it.--Chicaso Tribune.

HIS AWFUL THREAT.


That Hint a.s.ont Another Story Brought
tho Welcome Quarter.
.Gentlemen, said a smooth looking
man to the crowd in the cigar store, 81

What was it?'' asked three of thc
crowd at the same time.
The. smooth looking man leaned
against showcase and began: II was

There was one of the big Irish women
who scrub out dancing around in the
middle of the lobby with pair of box
ing gloves on her hands She was hit
ting out in all directions and had al
ready fioored couple Of men. An alarm
was sent in, and pretty soon o police
man came running down and arrested
her. Just as he was about to haul her
out to the patrol box that stands ON the
corner near by a dignified looking man
stepped out Of the crowd and said, Let

go?' asked the policeman Because the
United States government says that she
can do what she has been doing Il
dca,t catch ON, replied the policeman
Then read that! shouted the digIified
looking man, pointing to the sign on
the wall. The policeman turned and
read sign, Letter Box"
The smooth looking man stopped here
and looked around expectantly. No one
laughed.
After depressing silence for couple
Of minutes one OF the party said, "Well,
what's the joker"
Why" said the smooth looking
man, Letter box-let her box, see?
Let--her-box. meaning the woman
who had or the boxing gloves.
There was a Succession Of dismal
groans, and every one save the clerk
walked out into the night After all
had gone the smooth looking man turned
to the clerk and said hurricdly: Say,
boss, l didn't mean nothing by that. /
only wanted to get chance to talk
with you in private. -
What do you want?'' asked the
clerk.

him and said hoarseiA. 81 only want a

One day it was noticed that pussy re-

Sugar Subsidy.

The southern free traders in congress

congress for the purpose of allowing the
United States an opportunity to raise
her own sugar. It would not be amiss

These AreFacts.

During the past 20 years the rate of wages in
England has steadily declined. From the la
bles Of exports it is learned the exports of the
United States under protection laws increase
more rapidly than do exports under English
free trade laws. Statistics show Is paupers to
every loo of population in England and only
" to every loo in the United States.-Henry
Cabot Lodge.
And yet the statesmen from the south
tell us that the marvellous prosperity OF
this country for the past years stands
for nothing. They say we must permit
free competition in our markets with
all the world, no matter if it does result
in pauperizing labor and closing the
shops and factories of the country.
These tariff thinkers of the south are &C
tuated by desire to get even with the
great north, and thus eagerly embrace
the delightful theory of free trade.

Spalding's Baseball Guide.

"Spalding's Official Base Ball
Guide" for 1894, is out today, and
is without doubt the most COM
plete base ball guide ever pub
lished. The Guide is officially
recognized, and bears the official
stamp of President Young, of the
National League and American
Association of Professional Ball
Clubs.
This years Guide contains sta
tistics of interest to everyone con-
nected with base ball; it contains
the new rules, as adopted at the last
meeting Of the National league.
These rules were changed in so far
as pertains to the ground and the
laying out of the same, and as a
result a scientific diagram, some
thing entirely new is published in
this years Guide. This alone will
command attention from players
all over the United States and Can
ada. AS the new diagram is rather
complicated an extra diagram is
published for the guidance of
amateur players. With the rules
is an exhaustive appendix by
the editor, Mr.. Chadwick, and also
a complete index which makes it
quite easy for even novices to I'M
derstand the rules.
The official averages of the Ma
tiOnal league are published and
also matters of interest to the East
ern league, New England league
and the schedules of the National
league, Eastern league, Southern
league and also the Western
league. There is quite a space
devoted to college base ball,
chapter on the champion clubs
record for 1898, statistics showing
the work of individual players and
teams as we'll and also a complete
record of the individual work of
each club in the National league.
An article on the battery, the
managers, Of 1898 and just how
they succeeded, complete record

this crowd, now deadbeating it's
way to Washington on FOOLS err
rand. The Ohio newspapers paint
COXey as a person of unsOund
mind, and from his utter
anCes, that have been reported.
there is no room to doubt
he is Of unsOund mind. For in
stance, COXey says he inherited a
great deal of the divinity of
Christ and that the Holy Spirit
dictated, or inspired the laws,
which he wants Congress to pass.
These expressions convict him of
being Of unsound mind, or of be-
ing a knave. Then he calls his
crowd the "cOmmOnweal of
Christ" which is another proof of
partial insanity, or of knavery.
The law, which he asserts was in
spired by the Holy spirit, is a
fanforonade of tomfoolery and
idiocy. He wants congress to
loan every city and incorporated
town in the Union, one half the
