ABOUT PEOPLE YOU KNOW
What They Are Doing and What
They Saw.

EDITOR TIMES: The oracle OF these modern
days is good newspaper. The TIMES has
done so many good things for this city and ita
people that space in its columns Is respect
fully requested to communicate what may be
considered valuable information pro bono
puplico.
While travelling to the Pacific coast IN
search OF health, attention was called, espo-
cially to the cities of Chicago and San Fran
cisco, to the great number Of specialists. To
fntelligently employ my leisure hours the
study OF diseases of tho throat and lungs
seemed most opportune, as acute bronchitis
and catarrh frequently gave warning Of more
serious trouble to my lungs. OF many
methods oftreatment the only one that seemed
rational was that which vaporized the medi-
cine and by means of modern invention ena-
bled the physician to reach the spot by direct
application. This would save the stomach
from being deluged with fluids which are both
foreign and harmful to that organ. The
stomach being free from drugs food would
digest, assimilation and blood making 60 on
to the great benefit Of the general condition.
The climate OF California permitted out door
exercise, and improved my opportunities by
walking. While this was OF great benefit to
my general health it did not cure the bron-
chftis. Dreading the return OF this disease in
acute form inquiries were made for special
ist having experience in the treatment OF
throat, chest, lung. and catarrh of the mucous
membranes. Through friends I was advised
to consult DIR. Riegel of this city. The won-
derful instruments, some of them OF his own
invention, by which the medicine is atomizsd
and broughtto bear directly upon the iniamed
parts is revelation of modern surgery, as
applied to human necessities. The operation
and method OF treatment is absolutely pain
less, in fact, the treatment is soothing and
the healing process begins at once. Having
been cured OF catarrh by DR.. Riegel. and my
throat and lungs so greatly benefited, graft
tude compels me to call attention to the fact
that we have In Washington a specialist on
tine diseases above referred to equal to those
In New York. Philadelphia, and the other
large cities. 1 can now take long walks with
good speed without pain to my lungs or get
ting '.winded." My appetite has improved
steadily since putting myself in DIR. Riegers
care. / am now satisfied that it is not neces-
sary to go to warm climate. or anywhere
else. to find cure for the diseases named.

she was in the hail. I drew back into the
recess of the window as she entered the draw
ing room. Tossing of her hat, she sank on
the sofa. saying:
"Dear me! 1t is awfully dull out here! I
wonder when that young man is coming"
Already, in those few moments, l had
found some little excuse for my mothers low
ing some one besides her son.
1t is no use to go around the truth; was in
love at first sight. l made little noise with
the chair, and advanced into the room.
A half-suppressed scream fell on my ear.
and then she seemed about to fly, when e1-
planned to her who / was.
With a beautiful smile she held out her
hand and said:

your mother and grandmother, have heard
so much OF you. II is too bad you should

are friend of hers and visiting here, l hope?"
"Yes. l am staying with your grandmother,

'.Are you acquainted with that worthy lady,

'.Slightly. I met her here this week" she
returned, with a smile.

Indeed, soon l felt as If l had known her
all my life.
Soon my grandmother came, and formally
presented me to my young friend. Miss Bell
During the evening grandmother informed
me / should not be annoyed with the society
of Miss Moreton-that was the maiden aunt's
name-for several days, as she had gone to
make little visit in the neighborhood that
day. and it was probable she would not pre-
sent herself perhaps for week. How re-
joiced!'
Nearly two weeks had passed when, one
morning entering the breakfast-room, be-
held the long-dreaded person, felt sure,
seated with her back TO me, the very picture
of my imagination-my maiden aunt.
For fortnight nearly had been living too
happy to expect it could last-such was not
for earth-riding, walking, singing. and
reading with sweet Anrie Bell. Day and
night was my heart filed with thoughts Of
her. That morning 1 had determined to
whisper to myself no longer, but speak out to
her the dearest hope of my heart.
No chance of another days happiness,
then. She would be always prying about and
coming in just when 1 wished her in the
moon Well, I might as well face the cannon's
mouth at once, so forward 1 went. I was
glad Annie was not near. for one glance of
her merry eye would haveupset my decorous
conduct.
My grandmother arose to present me.

AN AGITATION TO BE PROMPTLY

A special dispatch from Roanoke, Va,
TO the Washington Post represents that
Mr.. j. Hampton Hoge is making speeches
in that region of country, IN which he
finds fault with the Democratic admins
tration OF Vilginia's finances, and ne
predicts a possible necessity of another
adjustment Of the State debt.
This sort Of foolish talk ought to be
taken notice of at once, and any man
who seeks 90 promote another agitation
over our public debt should be gibbeted
as public enemy, and AS a mark for
the wrath and scorn of every Virginian
worthy of the name 1t is our deliberate
belief that the injury done Virginia by the
contest over her public debt, in the way
of retarding her development, was almost
as great as that done by the war, and If
any further agitation of the subject were
commenced. it would at once arrest all
the inciplent growth that the settlement

barrassment to the State. II has been
