Anti-tOxine.

1t has been conceded by large mum.
Der of the medical fraternity that there
must be something more than faith in
the use of anti-toxine. 1t is true that
the people are too fast in taking any
thing and everything that is brought to
the print, and especially if coming un-
der high sounding name.
But with anti-toxine there seems to
be no doubt that in almost hopeless
cases of diphtheria it has proved an in
valuable remedy. We note from one
CT our exchanges where anti-tOxine was
administered last to little Tommy
Gallagher, Wabash diphtheritic patient
who was given up by the doctors and
was considered as fatally ill. The next
evening he was so apparently better
that he was pronounced out of danger.
The little fellows recovery since that
time has been remarkably rapid.
This kind of reports comes to us
every day and surely proves that this
newly discovered remedy is doing a
wonderful work.

Plausible Argument.

Between the passenger offices Of the
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis
railway and the freight depot there is
little spot of green sward that the
public has few opportunities of observ-
ing. A tall fence shuts off the view
from the street, so that it is only when
the large gate has been left open
through mistake that passers-by get a
chance to see the little park.
Several Gays ago the gate was stand
ing open, and two countrymen who
happened to be passing stopped for q
closer inspection.
what do you suppose that's for?"
said one.
Don't know, unless it's where the
railroad grazes its stock" was the re-
ply.
"Pshaw; railroads don't have no
stock" said the other in disgust.
you bet they do" said his COM
panion, because l read in a paper
about them watering their stock and
guess stock has got to eat as well as

The Japanese I'm Formosa.

It is not the Black Flags who are
now opposing the advance Of the Jap
anese in Formosa. 1t is the Hakka
yeomen and peasantry the men who
have been accustomed all their lives,
and their fathers before them, to till
the fields with a gun beside them, pre-
pared for savages that might drop upon
them at any moment on head hunting
foray. These men. who till now have
only had matchlocks, have been sup
piled with good arms and plenty of
ammunition, and have been filled with
dreadful stories Of what the japanese
will do to them. They have no or
ganization or discipline, but they are
brave and determined and can carry
on a guerilla warfare for an indefinite
period, fighting, as they believe they
are, for their hearths and homes.

ART FOR THE HOLIDAYS.
Hand Painted and Decorated China Iii
Variety and Quantity Previously I'm
equaled in thi. city.

The holiday stock of china, the ar
rangement of which for display has just
been completed by Mr.. ". f. Leonard
of "The Fair" is not only credit to
Mr.. Leonard but. as an indication of
the taste and culture precedent to a
demand for such goods, is compli-
ment to Plymouth and her people. 1t
is stock that commands attention on
its merits of quality, beauty and variety
of artistic designs, probably the largest
best selected stock of china ever shown
in this city. 1t includes a line of hand
decorated toilet sets to sell from S1.9J
to $500. Fine banquet lamps are
show with onyx tables in brass and
new designs.
In the hand decorated china some of
the most delicate tracery in exquisitely
beautiful designs is shown. There are
gold, bronze and color decorations in
almost endless variety in dinner sets,
tea sets, after dinner coffee setocracker
jars, sugar bowels, fancy cups and
saucers, salts, peppers, celery dishes,
olive dishes, pickel trays, etc. China
sets are shown in open stock from
which may be purchased such pieces as
the buyer may select without the neces-
Slty of buying an entire set, the advan-
tages of which are readily apparent.
LrampS of all kinds in metal, china
anu glass are exhibited at prices rang
ing from % cents to as many or more
dollars. Many novelties, suitable for
comparatively inexpensive patterns and
without which no dining table is COM
plete are shown on the same artistic Or
der at prices that must make them
tempting to all holiday shoppers.
1t is not too much to say that "The
Fair" as at present arranged is certain
ly one of the most attractive and taste
fully decorated stores in northern Indi-
ana. 1t is a store that speaks well to
strangers of the prosperity and general
advancement of this city be. ond and
above the average in cities of this class
and Mr.. Leonard should be literally en-
couraged to further develop his bust
ness on similar lines.

Precious Metals.

The statistics regarding the move
ment of the precious metals present
some points of interest. The exports of
gold for the month of August exclusive
of ore, amounted to SIG ,667 POI, an in
crease of over $11, SOC, 900, as compared
with those for the corresponding month
of last year. The imports for the month
were valued at 81 ,507 ,479, a decrease Of
over 81, 100000 as compared with those
for August of 1894. The exports exceeded
the imports in both months, the excess
being $15,159,7S in August, 1895, and
1895, 1903 in August, 1894. For the eight
months ending with August the exports
amounted to $55, 766, PIT, which was al
most $34, 100000 less than for the cor
responding period of the preceding
year. The imports amounted to $685.
063,S76 in the eight months of 1895, as
compared with $16,035,750 in eight
months of 1894. For both periods the
exports showed an excess over the i'm
ports, but whereas this excess amounted
to $74,233 ,2S1 in eight months of 1894,
It amounted to only $27,7O2.341 In eight
months of 1895

A Sad Spectacle.

Several days ago the personal effects
of the mother OF Charles 5. Parnell, the
late Irish leader, were sold at public
auction at her home in New Jersey.
All the things that were sold under the
hammer to pay her doubts and satisfy
her grasping, heartless creditors. In
noting the occurrence the Kansas Chief
makes the following comments:
Are the people of New Jersey desti-
tute of heart and patriotism 1t has
been asked, connOt the friends of the
Irish cause spare something from the
vast sums raised for the Irish cause, to
keep the mother of their greatest cham
pion in comfort, in her old age? Why
the friends of Ireland? What are the
people of the United States made of !?
Why are the Sons and Daughters of the
Revolution, who make such parade of
their ancestry, and spend thousands of
dollars concentrating events of the
Revolution? Mrs. Parnell is an Ameri-
can, and the daughter of Commodore
Stewart, once commander of Old Iron
sides, and who took part in some of the
naval victories that humbled England
on the seas, in the war of 1872? Why
turn the aged daughter of this man
over to the tender mercies of the friends
of Ireland? Where are the friends of
America? Why permit this old lady
to go the poOr-house, and to weep oyer
the niggardly prices paid at auction for
priceless relics of her gallant father,
and family heirlooms that have come
down from latter days? Let the
heather wear their old clothes for an
other season, and give her the money.
Let some of the Revolutionary heroes
go year longer without monuments.
They will not mind it.
