A New Dish to Him.

Corn calls to mind the Duke of Mar1-
borough's first experience with green corn
on the cob The incident was related by
a gentleman who happened to travel in
the same train with the duke the day he
arrived in New York. 1t was the Newport
train. Presently the duke went into the
dining car to get bit of luncheon. 1t
happened to be in the green corn season,
and he noticed that nearly everybody in
the car was eating the corn from tine cob.
He had never seen anything like it before.
He asked the waiter what it was, ordered
a portion, and, receiving it, bit into it as
he would bite into an apple. He had at
tempted to bite into the cob and had evil
IDENTIFY received shock-too greas shock
to try the experiment again-for, upon
being told that he must EEre&d butter, salt
and pepper on the corn and bite gently, no
perversely took his fork and patiently
picked the kernels, one by one, from the
cob.-Detroit Free Press

FANCIEs OF THE MOMENT.
White Grape and Purple vio1ets Worn at
Wedding.

English Grape is being very extensively
used for mourning and is not by any
means confined to widows. Entire gowns
are now made of it, and long wraps also.
Grape wells reaching to the feet are now
correct for widows wear, and the tiny
bonnet serves merely foundation for
it, being otherwise indicated only by the
white ruche around the face. Plaitings,
ruffles, ruchings and other trimmings of
Grape will be worn in profusion.
White Grape, identical with the black
save in the matter of color, is fancy of
the moment. At a wedding in fashion

Of the bride wore white Grape costumes

Broke the Tobacco Trust.
Tobacco Manufacturers Losing
Ten Millions Year.
Great ExcItement in St. Louis, No
Possibility of Preventing Still
Greater Loss in go.

ST. LoUIs.-[SpeciaL l-Col. VIM. Kir-
choff, Gen'L Western Manager of the
American Tobacco Com pany has been a
user of tobacco all his life, and for years
has smoked as many as twenty cigars
daily. After using a few boxes OF No
To-B ac, the desire for tobacco is com
pletely gone, and he is wonderfully i'm
proved in health His cure is attracting
great deal OF attention aud comment,
and many prominent ST. Louis business
men are following his example. People
are just waking up to the fact that the
continued use of tobacco is very mi
ious.
An interview with Mr.. II. L. Kramer,
the originator of No To- BAG, develops
the fact that within three years it has
reached an enormous sale, almost entire
ly upon merit alone. Over one million
boxes of No-To- BAG have been sold, and
100000 tobacco users cured. At the
present rate No To- BAG will cure in '96
from 100000 to 100000, and as Mr. Kra-
mer says, cit is always the worst cases
that want cure; those who have chew
ed and smoked from boyhood-some of
them, thirty, forty and fifty years, and we
even have records of cures after sixty
years of tobacco using. So you can see
that, if they are spending an average of
$4,000 a year this is a small amount. }
the cure of 100000 tobacco users in '96
would result in the loss of the sale of to-
bscco amounting TO over $IO,000,000
which will be saved to the cured"
No-Io- BAG is truly a medical wonder
Tor 1t not only destroys the desire for to-
bacco but invigorates the nervous sys-
tenn and marvelously increases weight
and strength. Like all great successes,
No-To-Bac has many limitations and sub
stitutes, and the public should be warned
against them. No-ToBac is the origi-

WORST CARLESSNESS.
The Wreck at Victor Done BY "A Fly
ing SWitch-Damage Suits.

VICTOR, Colo. Jau. 22.-Three victims
of Saturdays disastrous wreck on the
Midland Terminal remain at Hotel Vic
tor, Mrs. McGregor and Messrs. Garrett
son and Rinard.
There is much talk of heavy damages
to be brought by the wounded against
the company. 1t is plain that the box
car that crashed into the passenger train
did not break loose from the switch en-
CINE but that running switch was be-
ing made and the car had been given a
swift start by the engine to throw it on
the sldetrack but that the switch had not
been turned and the car in consequence
was sent flying down the main track.
The Midland Terminal, since
the wreck, now turns the train at the
Grassy Y, and has changed so that the en-
CINE is run ahead of the train.

DID IT WELL.
PrOf. Samuels Still the Burden Of
Their Song.
He Cures a Difficult Case of Bad Eyes
Where All Others Had
Failed.

Mrs. ]. N. Brauham, living at sos
East Sixth street, takes great pleasure in
telling what Prof. Samuels has done for
her eyes She was also willing and anx-
ious that her experience be given the
greatest publicity through the news
papers.
4 reporter who called on her obtained
the following facts: Two years ago she
was advised to see an oculist and get
glasses for the pains in her eyes, which
b were becoming quite frequent and Sc
we're. so she went to a well known &C.
ulist in Topeka and got what he claimed
was an excellent fit. " She continued
to wear these glasses occasionally until
a month ago, but believes she got more
harm out of them than good AT least
when she quit wearing them she was
much worse off than when she began.
SO she finally gave them up, aud they
left her with severe pains in her eyes,
temples and forehead, and almost con-
slant pain or burning spot" in the back
below the shoulders. Besides her rest at
night was not good and she often arose
in the morning as tired as when she
went to bed
Seven weeks ago she called on Prof.
Samuels and began to use his eye treat
ment and go. pair of his glasses.
When the reporter called she had dis
carded the treatment but was still wear
ing the glasses. In fact there is no fur
Their occasion to use the treatment for
she was well-well in the fullest sense
of the word. The pains under
her shoulder blades had disappeared in a
few days after the first visit. The eyes,
temples and forehead were also free
from pain and her sight is now as good
as ever in her life, when she feels rested
and refreshed and ready for a days
work. She said: 81 can now work
hard all day and feel no more tired at
night than l used to feel often when get
ting up in the morning"
Mrs. Branham says she never loses an
opportunity 10 tell her friends and ac
quaintances what the professor has done
for her, as she believes all suffering hu-
mainly should know where to go for re-
lief
Prof Samuels' challenge in the jour
NAL Sunday has stirred up much interest
and comment in Topeka, and if allowed
to go unaccepted by the other opticians,
will establish the fact beyond question
that he heads the profession in this part
of the country. He can be found at any
hour in the day at his office, COS Kansas
avenue.

by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
neE on February 10.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men of this city have decided to give d
grand ball at Hamilton hall on the even
ing Of February 10 and preparations are
already in progress for the event which
promises to be one of the most success
full railroad balls ever given in this city.
The hall will be handsomely and arsis-
tically decorated for the occasion with
bunting and emblems of engine and train
service, and it is safe to say that if the
appearance of their immediate surround
ings will add to the pleasure of the
guests, their enjoyment will be perfect.
Steinberg's orchestra has already been
engaged, aud nothing will be left IN
done to make the ball a decided success.
The committee selected to attend to
the details of the arrangements is COM
posed of Chris. McGinnis Chas. Beeler,
John Clark and Roger Williams, and the
manner in which they have already
commenced their extensive arrange
ments demonstrates that their selection
was not a mistake.
As the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers have decided not to give ball,
the tiremen's ball will be the only one of
the mechanical department given this
SEASON.

AMONG TIE RAILROAD MEN
General Manager Frey of the Santa
Fe Utters Warning
ABOUT GARNISHHENTS OF EMPLOYEES

Three Tines Garnisheed Means n
Probable Discharged General Rail-
road Notes.
]. j. Frey, general manager of the
Santa Fe, has issued a circular relative
to garnishment cases, in which he Of
ficially sits down on such proceedings.
He states that since the road has passed
from out of the control of the court, that
garnishment will now follow the ordi-
nary course of law, and requests the
employees to take measures to protect
themselves and also the Santa Fe COM
pany from the consequences of such
proceedings.
He believes that if a disposition is
shown by the employees to their creditors
to make payments, even gradually, that
it will be taken as evidence of good
faith, and prevent any such embarrass-
menL He also states that garnishment
suits result in trouble and expense to the
company, and in many cases liability to
the company beyond amounts due for
wages.
The last paragraph of the circular is
printed in black type, and is as follows:
"Al employees are, therefore. notified
that garnishment to exceed three times
within any twelve months, on debts ac-
cruing after the first day of Jan, 1896
will be considered as sufficient cause for
discharge, Notwithstanding the ability or
length of service of the employee. Please
take notice and be governed accord
