Private Diseases.

Under this head we have had ex-
traordinary success. The large
number of such cases coming to us
and the expressions of delight in
getting relief so quick and safe, are
remarkable. Specific Blood Poison
(Syphilis) can be entirely eradicat-
ed from the system, and our treat
ment of this terrible disease will
cure every durable case, and the
results we are having are proof
enough. In Unnatural orr Diseased
Discharges a treatment is used
that is new, and is in fact the One
rational treatment for this distress
ing trouble. We have cured cases
with this treatment that have
been treated in the East, West,
South and North, and have tried
doctors and patent medicines al
most without limit, besides having
years of suffering and waste of
money and time. Remember, this
is an entirely new treatment, and
is not used by any other specialist
or physician in the country.
1t will pay you to see us if you
are suffering from any Of the above
troubles.

A Singers Earnings.


Cincinnati Enquirer.
Yvette Guibert, the popular
music hall singer, earns 100000 a
year, half of which she pockets for
a six months engagement in Paris,
She lives very quietly, dresses the
same, does not care for jewelry or
show, and invests her money in
sound securities. She says that her
good fortune will not last forever,
and she intends making money
while the sun shines. She frankly
says that fine clothes and jewell
ry would not makes her beautiful,
and that as matter of fact
she owes her success to her
plainess, for if she had been born
pretty she would have had less in
centive to work. Some time ago
when Yvette left the Eldorado in a
temper, she remarked to the
manager, a fat old lady:
"Madame, you will remember
my name, Yvette Guilbert, to
whom you were giving 600 francs
a month and to whom, in the near
future, you will give 600 francs a
night"
The fat lady almost went into a
fit with laughter, and Yvette had
to lend her some smelling salts.
But the girl was true prophet, for
the management at the Eldorado
recently signed an agreement
with her at that rate. At Lyons,
where she sang soon after the
fiasco Of the EldoradO for 2 louis a
night, she was Missed of the stage.
She was then very thin, and the
audience wanted a plump "star."
They asked her in the middle of
the performance what she had
done with her fiesh--if she had
left it in her trunk at the theater.
"Patience patience ~ she remark
ed to the manager when she was
setting her account, "you have
just paid me 6 louis for three per-
formances. In a little while you'll
he giving me 60 louis day" Last
year she sang at Lyons at the rate
of 1000 francs day, and was just
5 louis wrong in her calculation.

DISEASES OF WOMEN.
"Woman's Weakness"

A new and systematic method.
In the diseases peculiar to women
we employ an entirely new and
uneXcelled method, one pro-
claimed in all the leading hospit-
ais of the East and Europe to be
superior in every feature to any
system known in all the ages past.
We feel in thus adopting this
system that we can earnestly and
heartily recommend every lady
suffering from uterine or ovarian
troubles of any kind, or any other
form of female weakness. not to
fail by any means to avail them
selves of the chance to be cured.
These painful and distressing
troubles which make the life of a
woman most miserable, and lay
the foundation for a premature
death, are brought under special
line of treatment, which affords
Immediate relief and most pleas
ant and effectual cure.

Report of the Commissioner to she
 Governor - OleomarGarIne Trade
 Successful limitations.
 HARTFORD, April 30.-Ths report of Dairy Commissioner Gideon D. Window has been made to the governor. At the time of the last report there were two wholesalers and sixty-nin retail dealers in oleomargarine in the state who took out e United States license. Those licenses ex- pired July 1, 1893. Since that time seven dealers have taken out licenses, but not one of them has attempted to deal in oleo- margarine. The law provides that there shall be no manufacture or sale within this state of any product made wholly or partly out of any fat. oil or oleaRinous substance or compound thereof, rot produced from unadulterated milk or cream from the same, in imitation of pure yellow butter.
 Tho cry of Unconstitutional" has had no effect upon securing convictions, but the question is still pending before the supreme court. The artificial colorinR of oleomar- garine for the purpose of making 1t resem- ble dairy butter is wherein lies the success of dealers in the imitation. The "spirit" of our law intended that ''oleomargarine" should possess any color except that of its natural state, ''creamy white," but 1t is shown by analysis that this color is not produced by the addition of any forbidden artificial matter, but by some secret pro- cess In the manufacture. The manufac- turers have the process 50 we'll matured that they can produce an article which is often of darker color than pure butter, and yet no foreign color can be detected. The New York law, similar in many re- epects to that of Connecticut, has been de- clared constitutional.

The Industrials Again Led the Stock Market-Ameriean Tobacco Held Strong Until a Late Hour.
 NEW YORK, April S0.-The industrials again led the stock market, both in point of activity and advance. Sugar alone figured for 125 6i0 shares, ranging between 1e43z and 107as. closing at 1o5ss, gain of 1ss per cent. for the day. The stock completely overshsdowed transactions in the general list and at times the excitement ran high. The rise was based on Washington advices that this company as well as other in- dustrial concerns will receive all the protection in the shape of duties they require.
 Lead was another feature and sold up to 433s for the common and to SSA for the preferred. Increased duties and belief that e dividend will be declared on the common this week &C., counts for the improvement. Chicago Gas, American Tobacco, Distilers and General Elec- tric also made gains, but subsequently Chicago Gas dropped from 64ss to 62ss on reports from Chicago that the application for an order re- straining the attorney general from beginning quo warranto proceedings had been denied and that the Mutual Fuel Gas Company will be granted a franchise by the common council to- night.
 American Tobacco he'd strong until late hour when it was announced that Attorney General Moloney of Illinois had decId ed that the company was 6 trust and doing business in violation of the laws of Illinois. It was in ferred that he would begin proceedings against this company as soon as he had disposed of the Chicago Gas matter. The high prices of the in dustrials led to @ reaction of # to 416 per cent Tobacco leading.
 Railway stocks were firm at the opening, but subsequently, Burlington and Quincy fell 1S to 772s, owing to a raid by bear traders. The other active railway issues receded about H tc # per cent. at this time. Later there was 6 rise all along the line, St. Paul moving up l1s to 62Ilf, Burlington and Quincy lss to 7914, North west l x to 109, Louisville and Nashville to 50H Missouri Pacific to a9, and Western Union 1h to s5ss.
 At the close when the industrials reacted the railway and miscellaneous stocks declined ir sympathy and left off about steady, but changes for the day show advances of A to 134 per cent Burlington and Quincy lost B. Railway and miscellaneous bonds were strong Sales were si,0so,00o.
