Fairy lore is believed to be a survival
Of the belief In the pre-Christian, pagan
gods OF the Celtic tribes. These have
been best remembered in Ireland, where
they are still spoken Of as the tuatha
de Danann--the folk OF the goddess
Danu; and they are to this day cOnsid-
cred the occupants Of the fairy hillOcks.
Doctor Brlnton suggests that there are
reasons for believing that the goddess
Danu was the moon (from the 0. /. verb,
daon, to arise, to ascend) and her fol-
lowers, or folk, the little twinkling stars;
whence by an easy step Of personifica-
tiOn they were transformed into the tiny
fairy folk.
A man named Huzzy, claiming to be
Sc years Of age, entered New York
bank to deposit some bonds. He was
feeble and unable then to transact bust
ness, and on being searched by an officer,
his wallet was found to contain $77S in
money, q return ticket to Montgomery,
Ala, a check on Drexel & Co., Philadel-
phia, for $11, 900, and an envelope con-
tanning forty-eight coupons clipped from
some bonds which were found in the old
mans tall boots. There were eleven
81 900 bonds of the city of Savannah,
four S10O bonds of the same, and GER
titicate for 100 shares New York Central

A substance known as iron felt has
lately been put on the market In Ger
many as a remedy for the noise of heavy
machinery. 1t promises to work great
reforms in some lines, especially in the
urban transportation Of passengers and
freight. The material is composed Of
fibers, ingeniously woven or beaten into
a mass that, while practically proof to
sound vibrations, is yet hard enough to
resist the wearing action of heavy press
ure. When placed beneath the rails Of
railroads it reduced the noise to barely
apDreciable rumble, instead Of the rat
tie and cIang that are so familiar to all
who live near such lines. Some Of the
street railway tracks Of Berlin have al
ready been equipped with this felt, and
the effect has been, according to reports,
to diminish the street noises in most
delightful degree.

Rheumatism,
Oh the Pain!

The aches and pains of Rheumatism
become constant companion to all who
are victims of this disabling disease.
Much suffering could be avoided if the
first warning pains of Rheumatism were
needed and the proper treatment at once
taken. But the people generally are
not acquainted with the cause Of the
disease, though thousands know its tor
lures. Those who use liniments and
ointments cannot understand why they
grow worse each winter, and find them
selves gradually becoming unable to get
around as they once could; yet they
know that their trouble came on at first
as little aches and pains, which hardly
attracted their attentions
Everybody should know more about
rheumatism; they should know that it
is peculiar condition of the blood upon
which all the liniments in the world
can have no effect whatever. The
best blood remedy is needed-one which
is able to go to the very seat of the
disease, and force it out. Swift's Specific
(S.S.S.) is the right remedy for Rheu-
matism, because it is the only blood
remedy free from mercury, potash and
other minerals which intensity the dis
ease, causing stiffness of the joints and
aching of the bones.

Hungry in London.

Americans who have penetrated as far
away from home as London remark, as one
of the more striking pecullaritieS of that
metropolis, the extraordinary difficulty of
getting something to eat there after mid
night There are perhaps fifty open all
night restaurants in New York, and in all
considerable American cities provision is
made for people who have occasion for
food when most people are asleep. The
restaurant wagons, which during the last
two or three years have come to be ia
miliar in most American cities, do bust
ness from sunset to sunrise or later, and
in themselves form sufficient safeguard
against nocturnal famine. London seems
not to have developed even these itnerant
Ravens. MI. Julian Ralph lately com
muncated to London Mail a distressing
narrative (though happy in its ending) of
the anguish of an American gentleman,
who left Paris with nothing more than a
cup of coffee in him, omitted to take food
at Boulcgne or on the boat ('I FIND ii $
throwing money overheard to eat cross
ing the Channel') and who found him
self in London after midnight, $50 hun
CRY that | was all one clamorous appetite

was not a bite of anything at his hotel

mended to consult a cabman. Cabby
took him to a proprietary club, where he
was first refused admittance, and after
wards told that he could get in by sign

no food in the house except few sand
witches, he retired A house near by was

of whose stomach were knocking together

cabin stranded in the roadway in Picca-
dilly,' frequented and sustained by cab
men, and there the suffering American
got the steak and potatoes and bread and
tea that his system clamored for. The
food was good, and the company genial
and we'll hammered, so the story ended
with the return of a happy man to his
hotel; but he still wonders that the habits
of London should be so very different
from the habits of American cities. Other
Americans have been heard of whose ex-
periences have stirred in them the same
surprise. One of them is Nh Ralph him
self, who says: ''Why London does not

Swift's Specific being a real blood REM
edy never fails to cure Rheumatism. It
reaches even the worst cases where the
doctors have made cripples with their
prescriptions of potash and mercury.
Mr.. D. R. johnson, an extensive lum-
Der dealer of Blackshear, Ca, writes:
MY wife was for years sufferer from
Rheumatism, and was treated constant
ly, but could obtain no relief. The pain
was first felt in her left shoulder, and
extended in all directions, increasing
in severity. The doctors said the dis
ease was liable to strike the heart at any
time, in which event death would be
inevitable.
every kind of treatment recommend
ed for Rheumatism was given ner,
including many blood remedies, but
none did her any good. She was grow
ing worse all the while, and was reduced
to mere shadow of her former self.
"It was at this critical period that
Swift's Specific was given her; the med
icine seemed to reach the disease
promptly, and she at once began to i'm
prove. One dozen bottles effected a
complete cure, and she has had no touch
of the disease since"
Every one afflicted with Rheumatism
