Instances Which seem to Sustain the
 Contention of Certain savants.
 Those who contend we could get on without a language may add another story to prove their point, says the Leeds Mercury. Everybody knows that in many cases it is not the words used but the manner of speaking which makes the impression. Thus it was that Daniel O'Connell was able to make market dame rage and storm by call ing her hypothenuse triangle. Some Swedish ambassadors having to present an aG;'TCss to Louis XVI, which they had forgotten. recitcd the whole oi their catechIsm, and that did just a. well. Prof. Drummond tells us in his Tropical Africa" he was in a similar fix, and got out of it in a similar way. On one occasion four of his carriers ran away. There were three others Of the same tribe in the company, and, though the professor knew nothing of their dialect, he determined to teach hem lesson. Beginning with few general remarks on the hcathen, he briefly sketchcd the geology of Africa and then broke into an impassIoned de- feuSc of the British constitution. The three tribesmcn trembled like aspens., He concluded his reprimand by solemn ly enunciating the 47th proposition of Euclid, and the result of the awful ad monition was that the men became the most faithful he had.

Awful Power ot Euiminatc of Mercury
 Used in Anarchist Bombs.

Used in Anarchist Bombs.
 Eliminate of mercury, which is used ly European anarchists in tue manu- iacture of their bombs, is one of the most treacherous and powerful cXplo- says the New York World, it has been employed in percussion caps and as tletonator for nitroglycerin preparations. It cSplodes when sub iected to slight shock or to heat, and not a few expert chemists since its English inventor, Howard, have been seriously injured or killed while pre- llring or experimenting with it,
 In France some years ago the celc- l,rated chemist, Earruel, was manipu- lating this dangerous product in . heavy agate mortar when his attention was sr ldenly distracted, and he let the pestlc down with a little less care than ordinary. The explosion which followed almost literally blew the nor tar to dust. and it tore Barruers hand from his wrist. Another distinguished chemist, Bellot, was blinded and had both hands torn off while experiment. ing with illuminate of mercury. Justin Leroy, French expert in the manufac- ture of explosives, was one day en- gagged in experimenting with this com pound in damp state, in which con dition it was supposed to be harmless. It exploded with such force, however, that nothing of NJ. Leroy, that was recognizable could aftcrward be found.

Mtsadventure of an Honest Ohio Mer

Misadyenture of an Honest ohio Mer-
 chant at the National Capital
 There is merchant in an Ohio town whom to name would be adding insult to injury after his experience in Wash ington few days ago. He is locally known at his home, says the Washing ton Star, as "Old Honesty" because he is constantly repeating the maxim; Honesty is the hest policy" In fact, it appears upon his business cards and wrapping paper, while he carries it out in all his business transactions. He visited Washington this week and. go- ing to n hotel, changed his clothing. Then he started out to view the city, and. it occurring to him he had not been shaved for week, he entered l harbcr shop and took chair. One cheek had been deprived of the hirsute growth when it dawned upon the mer- chant that he had left his money in his other clothes.
 "My friend," he said, 'I have just dis covered that I have changed my trous- CTS and left my pocketbook at the hotel. lou will have to trust me until go and get the money when you get through" The barber did not say a word. He washed the father off the unshaven side of the mans face, pointed to q sign: No credit" and the honest man created q sensation as he walked down the street

ABOUT PERFUMES.

Perfumes were introduced into Spain by the Arabs, who brought many re- cipes for making them from the east.
 Napoleon loved perfumes, and al- ways had a bottle of rose water or vio- let water emptied into his bath tub.
 From the offensive fusel oil the skill of the chemist has been able to extract the odors of several flowers and fruits.
 The recipes of over 300 different oils and perfumes have been preserved in the remains of Roman literature.
 In many of the perfume factories of south Europe only the purest olive oil is used in fixing the perfumes of flow CTS.
 Nearly every known perfume is now successfully initiated by the sympa- thetic processes of the chemical labora- tory.
 Pastilles are waters made to be set on fire and in the process of burning give forth the odor of certain plants or flowers.

Difficulty of Countryman In Finding &
 Firms Address.

A countryman drifted into one of the Main street railway offices and said: "Thc policeman outside thar told me yuh had a direction book of the town in hcrc." The busy but polite clerk indicated the directory, and the coun- trFIaan stared. He opened it doubt fnlly, says the Buffalo Commercial, and turned few pages. "Name of every loHr in town in here?" he vcntured. ''rurss so, pretty nearly" replied the clerk, smiling. "They may have skipped an odd name here and there. but the sl.ips are few" The country man went back to his bool, and the clerk to his work. After 15 or 90 min utes the clerk saw the countryman was still Puzzling over the directory and stepped over to where be stood. What name arc you looking for?" he asked. "Eobcrts Brothers" answered the rus tic. The clerk glanced at the place where the countrymGn was looking and nearly had fit.

There is one remedy which every fam lily should be provided with. We refer to Chamberlain's Pain Balm. When it is kept at hand the severe pain of a burn or scald may be promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time time than when medicine has to be sent for. A sprain may be promptly treated before inflammation sets in, which in. sures a cure in about one. third the time otherwise required. Cuts aud bruises should receive immediate attention, be- fore the parts become swollen, and when Chamberlain Pain Balm is applied 1t will heal them without matter being formed, and without leaving scar. A sore throat may be cured in one night. A piece of flannel dampened with this lininent and bound on over the seat of pain, will cure lame back or pain in the side or chest in twenty-four hours. It is the most valuable, however, for rheu- matism. Persons afflicted with this di- sease will be delighted with the prompt relief from pain which it affords, and it can be depended upon to effect com plete cure. For sale by H. c.

The Divine Affiatus Condaces to MentaI
 Irregularities.

Are literary men more prone to in sanity than others? Ur. Toulouse, the celebrated Paris alienist, answered this question after the suicide of Hippolytc RayInonds, the French writer of com edy. Mental disorders among men of lctters," says Mir. Toulouse, always ap- peal more forcibly to the imagination than ordinary cases of insanity But we must not conclude that madness is more frequent among them than in any other walks of life. The English have a saying that great geniuses are all madmen, but it would be going too far to assert that a man goes insane because he becomes passionate fol- lower of art or literature. There is no special form of insanity which at tacl<s artists or writers, but the celeb rity which the successful ones achieve fascinates great many men who have talent, but who also have abnormally emotional temperaments.
 1.-The active brain work, the fevcrish impatience with which they seek to gain fame, and often the privations that they endure-all these favor the development of the germs of madness which lie dormant in many brains, and which would never have made them- selves manifest if these persons had adopted a calm and more vegetative mode of existence. It is my opinion that the life led by most artists and writers is of q sort that is especially favorable to the bringing out in full force of any tendencies to insanity which may exist in embryo in the brain. The slightest thing may ythenunbalance the mind, and it is that which too often happens"

Tho Tyranny of the Desk.

We will suppose that your occupa. tion is sedentary-that you are chained, so to speak, to the desk in some count. ing house, or perhaps to the loom in some vast mill where you are com. pelled to labor from morning till night
 Sunday is your only day of relaxation. You return home every evening wear jed mentally and bodily. Your health and strength begin to fail. What will most effectually recuperate your vital energy? The weight of evidence points to no other conclusion than that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is your safest, most reliable sheet anchor. Use it consistently, and your system will soon regain it's pristine vigor. Every function will receive healthful i'm pulse. There is no remedy to equal the Bitters for nervousness and want of sleep, dyspepsia, constipation and biliousness. It averts and remedies all forms of malarial disease, and is pre- ventive of rheumatism and neuralgia.

SILVERWARE STOLEN.
Burglars Pay an Early Morning Visit to
Ex-Judgc Ward.

The residence of ex-Judge Ward. 124
South Sumner avenue, was burglarized
at an early hour yesterday morning,
and $3.50 worth of silverware was stol-
en-. A small pet dog was in the room
in which the judge and Douglass. his
son. sleep The creatures barking
awakened the latter and upon sitting
up in bed, he saw man at the door,
who advised him with a Ssh" to be
quiet.
When the burglar was discovered he
left the room. Mr.. Ward aroused his
father and they went through the
house. The odor Of chloroform was
very strong. and upon going to the
servants room on the first floor they
found the woman employed in the
household under the influence Of the

1t is the supposition that the burg
lars are no amateurs, but are a part of
a gang believed to be here in view of
the approaching Knights Templar pa
rade and Barnum's circus. Entrance to
the house was made through one OF the
dining room windows.
