| OLD VET:
My DEAR Sm-We have been reading your
column ia THE NEWS for some time, and moth
| ing mas interested us more than your reference
10 the kerosene lamp. Down this way we
| have 10 use them more than you do IN the city.
| Can you let me know where the new burner
may be obtained2 | can use six of the new
| kind with the Boland Cap. should think
they would be just lovely.
SARAH C. MANCHESTER.
| Riverpoint. March IL, 1895.
In reply to the lady correspondent and
| others who are anxious in regard TO the
subject, would say, that the burner is not
| on the market, but will be shortly. In
| the meantime address T.. III. Kttredge *
| Co., Industrial Trust Co. Building, for all
| particulars.
How many persons remember the days OF
| long ago, when The Post was printed?
| Well, never mind 1t doesn't matter. Ii only
! came to my mind when j met gentle
| man on the street yesterday. Then there
were The Herald, and The Sun, and The
| Press and The Star, and dead and gone Jim
| Hanrahan's Dolly Chronicle. How the
pendulum of time changes things.
But away with the past. 1t has gone
never to return. The present we have
with us, and what are we going to do
with it? 1t is as il referring to tooth
ache you had a year ago. What botsers
people most is the toothac che OF today.
But no one OF any consequence let's a
toothache trouble them. All they do Is
to go to DIR. w. ii. Tillingha 290 West
minister street, and out comes the tooth.
Ii is all over in the twinkling OF an eye.
Bridge and crown work is speciality.
This year Easter will tarry until April
IA.
The sun will seem brighter and give
forth more warmth. BY that time the
capes and fur collars will be put aside,
and the gorgeousness Of spring attire will
assert itself. The exclusive designs shown
at the III. w. Ladd Company, have i'm
pressed the ladies of Providence, aud
Mime. Jeanne Carr is rapidly filling her
order book for the near future deliveries.
Crepons are to be all the rage.
Mythology contributes to American
town sites, seven Neptunes, eight Miner
vas. three Jupiters, five Junos, five
Ulysseses, four Dianas, twenty-five Au-
roras, but only one Apollo.
When cocoaine was first discoverd the
doctors raised their hands and voices
against 1t. IL was not believed that the
sense OF pain could be deadened without
the loss of consciousness. Ii took five
years to convince them that IL was great
discovery and boon TO the afflicted
Now there can hardly be found physi-
clan but that uses cocoaine. Therefore
it does not follow that anything new in
the line OF treatment of certain organic
or constitutional ailments is OF all that
is claimed for it.
Just now located i'm the parlors and ad-
joining rooms of the Perkins House, cor
ner Chestnut and Broad streets, are two
physicians who have, without making the
usual stir, quietly proceeded TO introduce
a most scientific and practical method of
combating with the inroads of disease as
well as nipping in the bud the appear
ance of even the symptoms by de-
stroying, first of all, the germs.
The method referred to is the inhala-
tion of gas formed by the combining OF
certain substances, or, more properly,
fumes emitted through glass tube from
a simple, rubber-covered jar of the same
material In the bottom OF which are the
ingredients from which the fumes come.
This gas, which can safely be inhaled, is a
positive cure for diphtheria, scarlet fever,
catarrh, bronchitis, asthma, scrofula and
all forms of blood and nervous diseases.
Treatment will be given free 10 all who
wish TO investigate the matter. / shall
look into the matter in day or two and
report later.
DO you like 10 hear hard luck stories?
Sometimes think man might make
a good thing IL he would advertise TO
hear hard luck stories between certain
hours each day. OF course everybody un-
derstands that policemen are paid to
listen to hard luck stories, but the trouble
is they are not sympathetic enough. To
be a good listener TO hard luck story
you must not only appear 10 have, but
must really have, sympathy for the un-
fortunate who is grinding 1t out.
Morton, 81 Westminster street. You

best Of IL Is they will be satisfactory.
Some day when you are looking pleasant

When he has neither money nor friends
the best thing he can have is his health.
