ALetter from Mr.. Foster.
PORT HURON, Mich, Nov. 8, 1895

PORT HURON, Mich, Nov. 8, 1895.
To the Editor Of The Times:
see there has been considerable discus
sion in the papers concerning Pretzinger's
Catarrh Balm and the wonderful success II
has met with. One writer says that the in
genious chemist of Dayton. o., has taken up
with the idea that camphors carry wonder
full healing properties. Another writer says
he got the idea from French savant of the
seventeenth century. Perhaps can throw
a little more light on this interesting subject.
Raspail, French chemist, born at Carpen-
ter, and the creator of organic chemistry, In
1885, adopted the theory that disease Is most
frequently confined by internal or external
parasites, and fixed upon camphor as the
best general agent for destroying them, which
he prepared and sold first In the form OF
cigarettes, afterwards in the form of a
salve. No matter where the Dayton chem
ist got the idea he has prepared great rem
edy for catarrh of the nasal passages. Pref
fingers Catarrh Balm certainly kills the par
asites, IL they exist, and heals the diseased
membranes. The scabs and sores In the
throat and head are quickly healed and the
disagreeable choking sensation which ac-
companies catarrh is stopped at once. Pref
fingers is catarrh healer. Everybody in
Port Huron uses it and we have lots of ca
tarrh here. l unhesitatingly Recommend
it to every sufferer from this disease. Pref
znger's Catarrh Balm is not secret remedy
at all. Everybody knows that 1t contains
the camphors that are the cause of this
great curative properties, and for one will
only be too glad to have Mr.. Pretzlnger
make lots of money out of 1t. 1t is good
thing. Push it along. e. NJ. FOSTER.

A complete and immediate revolution OF
transportation methods, involving a reduc
ton of freight charges on grain from the
West to New York of from so to 60 pei
cent, is what is predicted in the November
Cosmopolitan. The plan proposes using
light and inexpensive corrugated iron cylin-
ders, hung on slight rail supported on
polls from cross-arm-the whole system
involving an expense of not more than fif-
teen hundred dollars mile for construction
The rolling stock is equally simple and
comparatively inexpensive. Continuous
lines of cylinders, moving with no interval
to speak of, would carry more grain in a
day than a quadrupe track railway. This
would constitute sort of grain-pipe-line.
The Cosmopolitan also points out the proba-
BILE abolition of street-cars before the COM
ing horseless carriage, which can be operat-
ed by boy on asphalt pavements at total
expense for labor, oil, and interest, of not
more than one dollar day.

Mrs. Langtry Likes Us.

Mrs. Langtry declares herself so much
pleased with the United States that she
has determined to put her daughter
Jeanne, who is now 10 years old, at
school in New York. Mrs. Langtry says
that before she became an actress she
hesitated whether to go on the stage or
to try market-gardening. She had a
famous garden in Jersey Lane, and had
an aptitude for that sort of profession.
But what interests her most now, even
more than the stage, is her racing stable
and stud farm at Newmarket, and when
In England she contrives to spend two
or three days a week there.

contains number of interesting features.
Much has already been written concerning
Mrs. Humphry Wards new novel ISL
George Tressady," which has been secured
for its pages. There YVES very spirited
bidding for this novel on the part of several
prominent publishers, with the result that
the author will probably realize from the
serial and book rights of it one of the larg-
est sums that has yet been given for a work
of fiction in the English language. The
story describes life in an English country
house, and also touches somewhat upon in

States" by DIR. Albert Shaw. The Century
will also contain during the year a great
number of papers on art subjects, richly il

its wealth of illustration, will reach its most
interesting part-the rise of the conqueror
