CHRONIC RHEUMATISM
or Eighteen Years Duration Cured by
Munyon's Improved Homeopathic
Remedies.

Mr.. Michael Garman, 723h Broad
street, Johnstown, Pa, says: Eight
teen years ago my rheumatism began in
my knees and hips and finally spread all
over my body in such severe form that
i had to use a cane TO walk with. The
pains in the shoulders also became so bad
that 1t was agony to lie down. My wrists,
shoulders and knees were continually
swollen and had to lay off work mont hs
at time. 1 employed doctors without
number, and as to patent medicines I've
taken barrels of them. Liniments used
until the flesh was raw; all TO no avail.
Pains would shoot through me, almost
tearing the joints apart. Three days
after beginning the use OF Munyon's
Rheumatism Cure j noticed decided
benefit and in less than four weeks Iwas
completely cured. Have not had an ache
or pain since.
A Specific for Each Disease.
Professor Munyon puts up a separate

tism in from one to three hours and cures

severe cold in O few hours. The Munyon
Remedies are sold at all druggists, mostly

GREENS or THE OLD SOD.
A Theory or the Origin OF n Designation
Sometimes Applied to tho Irish.

Sometimes Applied to tho Irish.
Some time ago we asked why long ago,
as well as today, Irlshmen We're called
Greeks. a correspondent writes as fol-
lows in answer:
Prince Miletus, son OF n Greek mon
nrch, set out with considerable band OF
followers in search of adventure. They
reached Egypt, and finding the king OF
that country ut war with a neighboripg
power they offered their services. Egypt
prevailed, largely owing to the skill and
courage of Miletus, and tho king bestowed
on him the hand of tho Princess Scotia,
his daughter, in marriage. After a lapse
of some years the Greek prince and his fol-
towers set out in quest of adventure Soc
ond time, and landing in spain subdued
the inhabitants very easily. Miietus he-
came king. and after his death his sol,
Heber, made voyage to Ireland, and con-
quering the country called 1t Hebornia
Later he subdued the western islands oi
ancient Caledonia and named them Heb
rides, also in honor of himself. Finally
the mainland in the west was annexed and
named Scotland, in honor of his mother,
Scotia.
This Is how the Irish come to be called
Greeks and Milcsians, in my opinion"
Now, there are variations of this legend
AID one is just as historically accurate as
the other. A parallel instance is this ia
nous discovery of Dr. Anderson:
But earnest seekers after truth hive
discovered that the ancient records and
archives of Ireland show clearly that Je~H-
miah escaped from Egypt with tho youn-
gest daughter of King Zedekiah, after tho
conquest of Jerusalem by Nobuchadnezzar,
and with her and Others took ship and
finally reached Ireland in safety, and that
there at tho ancient city Of Tara he did
build and plan successfully, and there can

The Up-tO.Date Panorama.

There are few better educators than
the panorama. Who of us cannot re-
member our first impression of various
countries and changing scenes as opened
to our view by tie panorama. OF late,
however, this form of exhibition has
fallen into disuse, largely, no doubt,
because it is too unwieldy, and involves
too much time, money and labor to be
profitable. The new idea in panoramic
or cycloramic art is exceedingly interest
ing, as showing the advance in methods
on this line. A prepared wall, lining
a cylindrical chamber, is all that is re-
quired as permanent plant. Upon this
wall pictures are thrown after the
fashion of stereopticon views. The
apparatus is suspended in the center of
the room, like a chandelier. Electric
lights are connected with it, and the
exhibiting apparatus occupies circular
table attached to the upper rim Of a
round Oox-shaped receiver, IN the middle
Of which the operator stsnds. The
table is readily revolved, and has sets
of projectors, lanterns, microscopes,
kinematographs and other necessary
arrangements. Vanishing effects and
tones Of all grades, from the brightest to
the most shadowy, are at hand. With
this equipment it is possible to picture
the march of an army, the movements Of
animals and vehicles or the antics and
pranks of human beings, moonlight
effects, naval battles, ships in motion,
and all of the various scenes OF life can
be accurately depioted.-NeoO York
Ledger.

Guests and Family Worship.

There is probably no mistress CT a
household who has not felt an uncertain
hospitality about asking her guests to
join in her family worship. Every one
has acquaintance they would not
hesitate to ask to their table, and would
hesitate to ask to their home altar.
Perhaps the reluctance arises from
disslmilarity Of creed, and fear Of
offense in consequence. More likely it
arises from that sin of restraining
spiritual confidence, which Is peculiarly
besetting one in this materialistic age,
for the diversity Of creed is no bar,
Prayer has nothing to do with Creeds.
Prayer is the universal religion; and men
Of every creed, and men Of no creed may
meet together at the feet OF one Heavenly
Father. The reluctance more likely
arises from that weak shame-facedness
that too often prevents sympathy be-
tween friends on spiritual subjects.
They are afraid to be misunderstood,
smiled at, criticised.
This latter dilemma is one that even
good and great men have not always
met bravely, for when DR.. Fuller once
had some guests OF great quality and
fAShion-God. fearing as he wRs-he
omitted his family worship on their
account. This act, which he bitterly
repented, he designated as ''a bold BASH
fulness which burst offend God, whilst
il did fear man." But we should re-
member with the grand old preacher,
that our guests, though they be ever 50
high or rich, are yet by all the laws Of
hospitality beolw us while they soiourn
under our roof. Therefore, whoever
comes within our door should also come
within our household customs and

For Boys Guidance.

"Don't be deluded into the belief that
it is smart to know things that you
wouldn't like to tell your mother"
writes Ruth Ashmore in an article on
''That Boy of Mine," in March LadjeS'
Home Journal. "Don't think it issmart
to listen to stories that are not nice and
which are about women. Gentlemen
never unite in deriding women-that is
q popularity of cads. Never read a
book that you could not share with your
sister, and never look at picture that
might not be framed and hung in her
room. What? You think somebody will
call you 'girly'P Oh, no, my dear boy,
IL anything is said about your conduct
there will be appreciation given you, and
the chances are that the older man win
say Of that younger one who is properly
modest, Brown is nice fellow; should
like him to come and see my daughters"
Et is not necessary for you to see the folly
Of anything. That isaE exploded theory.
Why should you SOW crop Of wild oatsl
Why not SOW crop Of wheat and get a
harvest worth having? From day to day,
my boy, you make up the story Of your
life, and it is the little things, the little
honest things that will make you a man,
mentally as we'll as physically"
