Last June Dick Crawford
brought his twelve-mOnths-old
child, suffering from infantile
diarrhRa, to me. 1t had been
weaned at four months old and
had always been sickly. l gave it
the usual treatment in such cases
but without benefit. The child
kept growing thinner until it
weighed but little more than when
born, or perhaps ten pounds. L
then started the father to giving
Chant erlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhpa Remedy. Before one
bottle of the 25-cent size had been
used a marked improvement was
seen and its continued use cured
the child. Its weakness and puny
constitution disappeared and its
father and myself believe the
child's life was saved by this Rem

In the Hole.

A final meeting of the arrange
ment committee of the recent
union Catholic celebration of July
4th, at Riverside park, was held at
st. Albert's hall, on Centre street,
Sunday afternoon, aud all bust
ness Of the celebration was settled.
In auditing the receipts and eX-
penditures it was found that there
was a considerable deficit and that
the receipts would not nearly cover
the expenses. This necessitated
the delving into the treasures of
each society represented to supply
the shortage, which will be done.
The item of music by the Fifth
cavalry band, $3.50, was the heavi-
est and one that knocked the big
hole in-the treasury.

Center Point, Kerr. Co., Tex, July II. 1898.
W. s. Swymmer-Dear Sir: 1t gives me-
p easure TO testify TO the virtues of the Elec-
Iropoise. | bought one IN February, 1893, and
used it according TO directions.
1 had rheumatism with stiffness of the
JOINTS, arrangement of the liver, partial
paralysis of the arm, pains numerous and
severe. They are all gone-the Electropoise
has cured them.
L had three ugly tumors on my breast
constantly discharging pus. supposed TO be
caused by broken bone, but evidently of a
scrofulous nature. The Electropoise has so
nearly cured them that il gives me no trouble
now and have not the least doubt of its max
in a complete cure of them. | wish there

A Ribbon Threader.

From the London Lady.
Narrow ribbon threaded through
lace or embroidery or wider ones
under insertion are such distinct
feature of present fashions that a
new threader, which has been re-
Gently invented and patented,
ought to attain speedy popularity.
Like most useful things, it is really
quite simple, being flat-shaped
piece of metal, with longshaped
slit at the top, through which the
ribbon is passed. The ribbon is
held securely and kept entirely fiat
and is thus inserted without crease
or injury, while the threader is
constructed specially to avoid tear
ing the lace. 1t is made in three
sizes, suitable for the various
widths of ribbon.
