NEW York, May 10, 1895.
1t was the result of wager with
friend which caused me to put on
my foot ball clothes a week ago and
begin kiclsing drops and 'punts
as though life held no other object.
Experience of years had taught me
that the sure outcome of so kicking
without the usual working up pro-
cess meant a lame thigh-in short,
an induced inability to kick the ball
loot On the morrow. My friend,
however, to decide discussion as
to the merits of different linlments
and the like for strains, had induced
me to become the trial horse. After
kicking hard for a half hour, / under
went a deal of rubbing with SALIVA
CEA. He contended that through
its powers to alleviate stiffness and
soreness, my ability to- kick would
be unimpaired. I did not believe
him-yet 10 and behold, the Pungent
salve STAYED off every sign of lame

out the slightest discomfort. In

Bank Vaults.
From an Exchange.

The greatest financial institution In the
world, the Bank of England, transacts
Its business in low, squatty building,
which to a visitor accustomed to the
stately edifces in which the banks OF our
great cities do their business, must seem
a striking example of arrested architectu-
raj growth. The contrast finds its ex-
planation in the fact that the Bank of
England antedateS in its greatness the
construction of fire-proof vaults. The in
genuity of the burglar may still find
way to break through and steal, but the
fiend of FIRE is baffied. 1t is no longer nee
essary for safety to isolate the bank and
refuse to allow the same roof to shelter
other tenants. Recently a fire occurred
in New York city which again demons
strated, as did the great fire in Chicago,
the security afforded by the modern vault.
A fire occurred which left the Empire
State Bank building heap Of debris. Its
vaults contained million dollars in pa
per money and securities. and all came
out as unscathed as did the three friends
Of Daniel. The same was true of the
Manhattan Savings Bank. Not less than
three millions of paper kept cool and
clean in the vaults which that fire COW
cred with ashes.

these vaults were deprived of their fire.

would be produced. They are as essen

ing is to the disseInination of intelligence.

QUEER CHARITY PATIENTS.
A Woman who Bought Lottery Tick
cts with Her Charity Money.

cts With Her Charity Money.
1t is a fact. and it may not be such a
strange one, after all, that there are many
paupers, benefciaries of the county and
others, who, while they endeavor not to
let 1t become known, prefer to have
money, however little 1t may be. rather
than the necessaries of life, which are
often given them. and which they often
dispose of in order to get few cents to
use for other purposes.
Few instances are noticed in cases where
charity is dispensed privately, because
individuals do not often take any trouble
to investigate as to the character of the
applicants. Usually when they are sus-
picious they refuse TO give, otherwise they
take it for granted that everything is all
right.
dispensation of charity from the public
funds. Not only IL each applicant inves-
tigated before the name goes on the list,
but watch Is kept as far as possible in
order that the names of those who are
unworthy to receive may be kept Off the
list.
There are no doubt some who are in
clined to drink and who spend the money
they receive from the county in this man
ner depending upon what they can beg
I'm the way of food to keep them alive.
Many of them trade their groceries for
clothing or whatever else may suit their
fancy, while several of them have been
know to sell the wood of which they have
claimed they were in need TO keep away
the cold. In a recent case of this kind
a woman's name was scratched from the
list because It was found that she had
been selling the wood given her and US
ing the money for other purposes.
Perhaps the most unique case is that Of
a woman who appeared to be in dire need
and who was the beneficiary of the ooun-
~ to the extent of $3.50 every month, ell
of which or a greater part of IL she IN
vested regularly in lottery tickets. 1t is
not recorded whether she ever held the
lucky number, but the disposition she made
of her money was soon discovered and her
name too, went off the list
OF course Ii is never desired to slight
those who are really needy, and no action
is usually taken until the applicants ac-
tons show conclusively that he or she is
unworthy of the aid given, but the fact
that there is little imposition in this line
is undoubJed and a close watch is k"0t
in order that the county charity lists y
be kept as clear as possible of imposters.
