Saving the Fragments.

Chemistry, like a thrifty housewife,
economies every scrap. The horse
shoe nails dropped in the streets are
carefully collected and reappear as
swords and guns. The main ingre-
lient of certain ink was once the
broken hoop of an old beer barrel.
The clippings of the travelling tink-
er are mixed with the parings of
horses hoofs and the worst kind of
woolen rags, and these are worked up
into an exquisite blue dye which
graces the dress of courtly danes.

Pure baking powders are one of the
chief aids to the cook in preparing per-
feet and wholesome food. While those
are to be obtained of well-esta blished
reputation like the Royal, Of whose
purity there has never been qucs-
ton, it is proper to avoid all others.

fall on his command. We turned in,

Ward McAliist.r's Career.

It 10 not likely that Mr.. Ward McAls
lister, whose death is announced, ever
regarded himself, or assumed to be. .
factor in the welfare Of society in gen.
eral, despite the popular impression a.
to his assurance and desire for notoriety.
1t 10 quite az unlikely that he ever had
an idea or wish beyond the extraction
of as much pleasure "a possible out Of
life. the association with the ultra fash!
ionable element and such notoriety AZ
may come from the position of author
itative moutbpiece OF ''our very best
people," This was his aim in life, and
he pursued it steadily, to his credit be il
said, with distinguished success. 1t was
not a very lofty aim, but few mea
with the same advantages could have
lived and fiourished 80 many years
and maintained this unique position.
From the standpoint of the representa-
tive American life and purpose there
was little that was worthy and com~
mendable in the existence OF Ward Mcs
Allister. To all good and serious inten,
he was and always had been an idler.
A profitable marriage, while it did NOS
bring the truest happiness, made him
reasonably independent and enabled
him to enjoy those pleasures which reps
resented life to him in it's only redeem-
ing phase. A great many sermons and
moral discourses will be preached over
his rejection of the nobler purposes Of
human existence. but these would not
have concerned or interested him before
his death and have no part in the sum-
ming-up of his queer character. 1t ia
highly probable that if MIR. McAllister
had turned his ability into useful chana
ne!s he would have been accepted as q
man OF more than ordinary address and
taste, but he preferred to lead an idle
and frivolous, though not spe.
cially dissipated. life. He was
much shrewder man than
has been popnlarly supposeds
else he could not have maintained his
anon uloua position against the ridiculs
and the sneers which we're constantly
hurled at him. He was useful in way
to people OF immense wealth, and
seemed to mingle in a most extraordi-
nary manner the position OF caterer,
lackey and boon companion. 1t might
almosu be said that he sat as an hons
orsd guest at the dinner he had cooked,
There Is in American life today no nota.
BILE character exactly comparable 70
Ward McAlister. and society is not the
loser bv his death. The world will 20
on while the useful and the useless
alike paas out OF it. For q time Mr.. Nc,
AlIister will be remembered Us freak
of American civilization. and thsn hie
little span OF frivolity and amusement
and nsslessneas will be forgotten. II Kans

The editorial columns of the North
ampton Mass Daily Hampshire Ga
zette of Dec. 18th, give the particulars
of the remarkable cure by Dir. Greene,
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, OF
Alderman Charles S. Crouch, one oil
Northampton's ablest and best-known
| statesmen.
Editor J. c. Gere, of this leading
newspaper, personally investigated the
facts Of this wonderful cure, and his
widely-read editorial states the detail,
Of the cure exactly as they occurred.
giving Hon. Mn. Crouch's own words.
Following is the editorial in full:
Learning that great cure had been
effected in Alderman Chas. $. Crouch,
of Northampton, Mass, by Dr.Greene'-
Neryura blood and nerve remedy, Il
reporter took occasion to call on Mr..
Crouch and talk with him about it,
and among the thousands OF tcstimo-
mails given to this world-renowned
medicine, none will be more widely
read or give greater weight than this
one coming from so noted man as
Alderman Crouch.
Mr.. Crouch is one Of the plain, old
fashioned kind OF men, outspoken, and
always means just what he says. In
conversation with Mr.. Crouch, he said:
Last spring did not feel in my
usual health; felt as tired in the morn
ing as when | retired; had no energy
nor ambition to go about a day'swork;
no appetite with which to regain
strength and energy. In this condi-
ton | worked along from week to
week, thinking that aftera while mat
tiers would right themselves and ]
would feel like myself again. But to
the contrary, ! grew worse.
"Knowing that Dir. Greenc's Ner-
vura was not a patent medicine, but a
medicine put up from a prescription
discovered BY the doctorin his private
practice, ! resolved to try it. The first
bottle helped Inc so much that | pur-
chased another one, and even third
bottle, when, to my great JOY, found
myself as well as ever | was in my
life; and furthermore have remained
So"
In further conversation he said:
"Dr. Greene's Nervura is great
medicine. There is no humbug about
il /. 1t was made to cure, and it does
cure No need to be afraid to use it,
Day by day he praises this wonder
full medicine to his friends and neigh
bors as the one sure way to regain
their health.
Herald and news. [volume] (West Randolph, Vt.) 1878-1943, 1895-02-28

| His wife, also. used DIR. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy to
great advantage, and, like her hus-
band, has been cnred and now enjoys
her old-time health.
Mr.. Crouch has always been an ac-
tive man in town and city affairs. In
old town meeting days he was always
on hand to help with his eloquent or
atory the pressing needs of the time,
and since Northampton has been a city
he has served for several years in its
government, and at the last election
he received the largest vote for alder
man that he ever had. He is con-
tractor, and during the past few years
has built some Of the finest houses in
the aity. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Crouch
give Dr.. Greene the praise of giving
them Il medicine that will cure and
keep them well.
The word OF this widely-known city
government official, Alderman Crouch,
weight with the public, but when we
have added to this the fact that the
Northampton Doily Hampshire Ga
.eHe,a newspaper of the highest stand
ing, vouchcs editorially for the truth
of every word, and its editor states
that he has personally investigated all
the facts of the marvellous cure, there
should be no hesitation by the people
to use this great medical discovery,
this wonderful curer of disease, DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy. 1t is a fact, no longer to be
doubted, that this remedy cures-that
it makes those who use it strong and
well--that it is the surcst and most
certain cure for disease known at the
present day.
1t is the very best of spring medi-
cines, and should be taken now by all
who are weak, nervous and rundown,
to strengthen the nerves and invigo-
rate the blood.
1t is not patent medicine, but the
prescription of the most successful
specialist in curing nervous and chron-
IL diseases, Dir. Greene of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass. He has the larg-
est practice in the world, and this
grand medical discovery is the result
of his vast experience. The great rep
utation Of Dir. Greene is a guarantee
that this medicine will cure, and the
fact that he can be consulted by any
one at any time free of charge, per-
sonally or by letter, gives absolute as
surance of the beneficial action Of this
medicine.
