A Victory for PaSkola
1t Receives the Official Endorsement
Of Eminent Experts and a Jury
Of Representative Citizens.

The suit brought by Ohio's Food Com
missioner against Cincinnati druggist
for selling Paskola on the ground that
it was nothing hut glucose, resulted in a
great victory for Paskola and verdict
against the state.
During the course of the trial, Prof.
Smaller of the University of Cincinnati,
testified that Paskola was not glucose,
and even if it was, it would be harmless
He also bore witness TO its activity az a
digestive agent.
Prof. VIM. Dickore of the Miami COL
lege, testified 10 the same facts. So did
Prof. Schmidt, the chemist OF the board
of health, Prof. VIM. Hoffman and
others.
a practical test was made in court,
showing the digestive action of PaSkola
on eggs and meats of various kinds,
whereas glucose under precisely the
same conditions produced 10 effect
whatever.
The test but confirmed the experts
statements and proved Paskola TO be Of
great value in Indigestion and wasting
diseases.
This verdict disposes of the malicious
attack that has been made against Pas
kcla by interested rivals, and suits have
now been brought against the proprie-
tors of a well known emulsion of cod
liver oil for having given wide circula-
ton to a false formula and other mis-
representations regarding ii.
The animus OF this attack will be the
better understood when it is stated that
Paskola is being largely used in the
place OF cod liver oil.

THE NIANToNoGAH

to the sailors. have been going on for
some tirne-in fact, since she was made
ready for active service at the time OF
the threatened Chilean war, three
years ago. The ghost first began to
play pranks with the engine room
bells. A machinist heard one night. or
thought he heard, the clang of the
signal bells below. He sat bolt up
right, at the risk of being spilled out
of mis- hammock. and then heard the
signal to back at full speed. The ma
chinist rubbed his eyes: he must have
been dreaming. but there 1t was again,
senseless jangIe that meant nothing
save that something had gone wrong
somewhere. and, springing from his
hammock, he rushed down To the en-
gine-room. The bells had ceased to ring.
The standing" lights were burning
steadily. There was no one IN the room
Ships Writer George Turner was the
hero of the next adventure. He sat in
his Office reading one night between
twelve ard one o'clock. The door was
closed and he was deeply interested in
his book when there came tapping
on the door. Come in" he said. The
door did not open, but MIR. Turner did
not notice it, and he was surprised
when the rapping was repeated.
''CoIne in" he exclaimed again. some
what testify. Only the knocking at
the door answered him. With an i'm
precation on the head of the midnight
disturber, Turner walked 10 the door
and flung it open. There was no one
in sight. Only the Guertermaster was
on deck, and he had not been near the
door. Several other men during the
week that followed had similar expert
ences.
The Miantonomah is fitted out with
an automatic fire alarm, operated by
electricity. While the vessel lay at
anchor not long ago in Gardeners bay
the fire alarm rang out suddenly.
Every man was startled from his slum-
Der. Hammocks were dashed and
slowed, hose was run out and in few
minutes each man was at his station.
Then the search for the fire was be-
gun. Nearly two hours passed before
it was discovered that there was no

ing. Several times after that fire
alarms were rung for no reason. A
man was put on guard to watch the
alarm bell, but it rang just the same.
The Miantonomah being now tied up
to her dock, the current is shut off
from the thirty-three incandescent sig
nal lamps. Nevertheless these lamps
have been flashing night after night.
Sometimes they begin on the port side,
sometimes they commence on the star
board side. Sometimes the light is
steady, at other times it goes flicker
ing across from ''hard-a-port" to
''hard-a-starboard.'
The story of the ghost has passed
from mouth to mouth, and each man in
the yard considers himself the pos
SCISSOR of an important secret.

There is a fable of German origin
which describes the terrible adventures
IF four flies in search of break fast
The first fixed his affection on some
tempting jam, but the jam had
been adulterated with copperas, SO
that this fly died from Inflammation.
The second, thus warned against lux
aries, resolved to eat only bread. But
The bread was adulterated with alum.
80 this fly died from internal cramp
The third, in the hope of drowning his
grief for the loss of his companions,
betook himself to the edge of the beer
lug. But the beer was adulterated
with cocculus indicus, so this fly. too
gave up the ghost, victim to poison.
The fourth hy, seeing the fate Of his
comrades, decided that life was not
worth living, and proceeded to commit
suicide on a paper labeled Fly Poison -
But the more he ate the better he
throve, for the fiy poison, like every
thing else, was extensively adulterated.
and succeeding generations of flies nave
adopted it as their only safe food.-N

Jefferson very suddenly put an end to
all ceremony and all recognition of for
eign rules of precedence, especially
those based on titles of nobility. Els
political principles were democratic,
and he wanted it understood that his
manners were also democratic. He re-
ceived Mr.. Merry, the British minister,
in slippers without heels. Of this Mr.
Merry complained in en- official letter
TO his chief He also complained that
when Jefferson invited him to dinner,
the president did not take in Mrs.
Merry, but Mrs. Madison, the wife of
the secretary of state. who did the
honors of the white house. The presi-
dent also violated rule of interna
tional courtesy on this occasion, by in
viting to dinner NJ. Pichon, the charge
of France, with which country Mr..
Merry's was then at war. There was a
very small diplomatic corps at Wash
ington at that time. Besides Mr.. Mer-
rv and NJ. Pichon. there was the Mar
auis de Yrujo-the Spanish minister
and Danish charge d'affairs. Mr..
Madison followed the presidents eX-
ample. and 40 deeply offended all the
foreigners that the women formed a
conspiracy to resent what they regard
ed as the insults put upon them by the
government. Two of the women, Ma
dame Pichon and sthe Marchioness de
Yruio, were Americans; and notwith-
standing the social war in which she
engaged, Madame de Yrujo was always
on terms of warm affection with Mrs.
Madison. There had been girlhood
