HOW HIS LIFE WAS SAVED.

From the New York City Catholic Newsl
No one would think to look at Rich
ard B. Brown, commiss on merchant,
0 No. 300 Washington street, New York
Guy, that for six weeks he had suffered
IN agony in his bed and that physicians
had said it was impossible for him to re-
gam his health.
But now he is back in his office, vigor-
GUS md hearty. He regards DR.. David
Kennedys Faverite Remedy as the savior
of his liie.- Mr.. Browns story is re-
markable:
For several years said Mr.. Brown
to reporter the other day, II suffered
from Inflammation and liberation of the
bladder, most stubborn disease. My
family physician was unable to relieve
me. At the advice of friends consulted
specialists, and they all failed to do me
any good. All this time l was growing

What a Nawab Thinks of Us.

The Nawab Imad Nawaz Jung Bahadur
of India, who has been travelling through
the United States with view to writing
in his own language his impressions of the
new world, is high caste Indian, with a
pleasing and interesting face.
The question of wages is most seri-
Gus one with you, he says. lin my coun-
try $3.50 is very good pay for month s
work, and the labOrcr is well pleased and
contented. In your country, however, you
pay So per day-$60 a month-and some
times more. Your workers are discon-
tented. The wages are SO high that the
big people grow poor and the poor rich,
and everybody is unhappy.
Your government is in a frightful
financial condition. With no large army
to draw on its funds, it spends more money
than it gets. You give most of your
money in pensions. This is not right.
Other nations spend one third of their
money on their armies. Why is this?
don't like the pension system. In case
of war, which is always liable, where
would you get your money? You would
have to terribly tax the people. They
might not stand it, and then where would
your government be? Your financial sys-
tenn is bad. -

Paid For His Information.

Landor the essayist and poet, was a self
willed, trenchant sort of man, who prided
himself upon his independence and ability
to take care of himself. Yet, like most
men of this class he was susceptible to
delicate 1lattery and was easily duped by
those who knew how to manage him.
He once fell into the hands of Vene-
tian rogue who read character at glance
and was both delicate flatterer and a
manipulation. Landor was standing in the
doorway of cafe in Venice, watching the
famous pigeons Of the Piazza San Marco.
Suddenly an old gentleman rushed up to
him. Lander was an Apollo in form and
face, and he knew it.
Pardon me, sir, " said the old gentle
man, with more than Italian sweetness,
but will you allow me to look into your
eyes? Ah l thought sol Sir, you have
green eyes l never saw but one pair be-
fore, and they belonged to the Empress
Catherine of Russia. They were the most
wonderfully beautiful eyes in the world. "
The flattered Englishman paid dearly
for two bits of information. He had not
only learned that his eyes resembled those
of the smart and wicked empress, but
that he himself was green" The old
gentleman while examining his eyes picked
his pocket.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
The cheapest is Pond Extract, because
one ''smalp' bottle, 80 cts, has more
beneficial effect than one gallon of other
preparations sold as being the same
as or equal to-" Ponds Extract. For

scope in a sixpenny bazaar When one
looks through peephole, one sees, at each
shaking Of the cardboard tube, new and
particolored combinations. Children are
amused at this toy, but adults know that
it contains only splinters of colored glass,
al ways the same, inserted baphazard and
united into symmetrical figures by three
bits of looking glass, and they soon tire OF
the expressionless arabesques. My smile
applies not only to Ibsen's plays, but to
the author himself. In reality he is the
kaleidoscope. The few paltry bits of glass
which for 80 years he has ratified and
thrown into cheap mosaic patterns, these
are his obsessions. These have existed in
his own diseased mind and have not sprung
from observation of the worlds drama.
The pretended 'realist' knows nothing Of
real life, he does not comprehend it, He
does not even see it and cannot, therefore,
renew from it his store of impressions,

bad the audacity to try to raise upon the

Genius In IdiOcy.
Thus with hard blows Herr Nordau
seeks to shatter one by one the idols of the
hour. Lombroso argued that genius is in.
sanity; Nordau would provo it to be idiocy.
In concluding his book he says:
"Mystics, but especially egomaniacs and
filthy pseudo realists, are enemies to SO.
oiety of the direst kind. Society must un.
conditionally defend itself against them.
Whoever believes with me that society is
the natural organic form of humanity in
which alone it can exist, prosper and con.
tinue to develop itself to higher destinies;
whoever looks upon civilization as a good,
having value and deserving to be defended
must mercilessly crush under his thumb
the antisocial vermin."

why, there is no honesty in business,

resorted to in order to get votes Men are
openly bribed Men who get into office

You can never tell when to trust a man.
People you have dealt wit / for years do
not hesitate to do you up if they get
chance They sell you poor goods at high
prices. They use all sorts Of dishonest
means to get your trade, and when they
get it they at once proceed to get even by
cheating you. And in society-why, so.

scarce as purity. There is nothing that is
