The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least II dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure o
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
OF the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its cura.

His Last Law Case.

The late William S. Groesbeck of
Cincinnati never took another law case
after his defense Of President Andrew
johnson, 1.-THE brilliant speech which
won that case" says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune, proved the mans
remarkable will and intellectual pow
ers. He had been SO i'll as to be confined
to his bed, and Oh the day of the trial,
and while lying i'll bed, he jotted down
on a sheet of foolscap paper the main
points of his defense. He was driven to
the tribunal in a carriage, unable to
walk, and spoke %extempore for four
hours and a half. AT the close article
IL was voted upon and the president
acquitted without the taking up of any
of the other articles. Since that time
Mr.. Groesbeck had lived a life of quiet
and retirement. In 1872 he built Elm
hurst, a noble house of superb proper
tions, commanding a river view of I'M
surpassed beauty"

distinctly unaesthetlc, and worse than
that, dangerous to health.
There is no more effectual means of
conveying the contagion of disease,
apart from actual incubation. than by
kissing. Medical literature Is full of in
stances of the transmission of diph-
liberia and other dangerous diseases In
this way. And 1t is not the baby alone
that is In danger through this custom,
for 1t has happened more often than
one could believe, that the child has
been the II who was Ill, and has
spread Its malady through a wide cir
Gle of hysterlcal o~sculators. If the anti
baby-kissing society were ever estab-
lished. this is a fact that should be
made the subject of Its first tract.
There Is another habit of older chill
dren, and ven grown-up people, which
is as dangerous as it is nasty-and that
is the kissing of dogs and cats, or the
allowing of ones self TO be licked by
them.
A form of ringworm, very common in
children, is attributed, probably with a
good deal of justice, to contagion from
the cat; and dogs are often infested
with worms, the eggs of which are
wiped from the tongue of the animal on
to the child's face, and so may get into
the mouth and be swallowed. Let the
baby and the puppy be taught to
shake hands."-Youth's Companion.

More than Il Was Worth

In the language of the street, money
talks" but there are instances on rec
ord In which talk is money. By means
of the long-distance telephone a conyer-
satiOn can be carried on between two
persons hundreds of miles apart. Such
conversation Is rather expensive, how
ever, and Is restricted, as a rule, to mat
tiers of urgent necessity, and no time is
allowed to go to waste, for this Is a
case in which time also Is money.
A young man in st. Louis, finding
time hanging heavily on his hands,
dropped into a telephone exchange and
asked to be put in communication with
a friend in an Eastern city. After a
short delay the connection was made,
and the following conversation tool
place:
Hello, Fletch! Do you hear me"
"Yes."
"This Is Sid. Thought I'd call you
up"
"Glad to hear from you, Sid. How

Why People Forget Names.

Many persons are especially forgetful
with regard to names. They are en-
barrassed to find that they cannot, on
the spur of the moment, recall the
name Of IN acquaintance, or that of
some familiar object, although, In other
respects, their memory is not treacher-
GUS. DR.. Bastian, in discussing such
defects, recently quoted, with approval,
this explanations: THE more concrete
the idea the more readily is the word
used to designate it forgotten when the
memory fails. We easily represent
persons and things to ourselves with
out their names. More abstract CON
ceptlons, on the contrary, are attained
only with the aid of words, which
alone give them their exact shape In
our minds" Hence verbs, adjectives.
pronouns, adverbs, propositions and
~conjunctions are more Intimately re-
lated to thought than nouns are, and
can be remembered when nouns, or
names, slip from the mind.

Look Before You Sneak.

The following laughable incident of
a bicycle trip, borrowed from the Cleve-
land Leader, has a general air of prOba-
bility about it which may commend it
to readers who like to enjoy themselves
at the expense of other peoples mis-
haps:
There is one amusing feature about
wheel-riding that all old riders-and a
good many new ones-must have no.
ticed. That is the way in which a mod
erately proficient rider will carry on n
conversation with some one behind
him, without really knowing who that
some one is.
A moderately proficient rider isn't
clever enough to turn his head to look
backward, and so he talks in the dark,
as it were.
The other day a wheelman was COM
ing up the Dodge street hill. There
isn't much of a hill On Dodge street, but
slight as 1t Is, 1t bOthers the new riders.
Just ahead of the wheelman in ques-
ton, who was riding at a leisurely rate,
was a stout lady, mounted on a new
bike" Halfway up the incline the
wheelman was astonished to hear her
call out: Coming, dearY"
The wheelman didn't answer. He
felt sure the inquiry couldn't be ad-
dressed to him, and he kept silence.
"All out of breath, dear?' she called
again.
And again the wheelman made no re-
ply.
Don't be discouraged" she cheerily
shouted. You'll get there by and by
The wheelman thought so, too, but he
made no mention of the fact.
Does 1t tire your little arms so
much?" continued the stout lady.
That was too much for the wheelman.
He put on steam and passed the lady.
AS he whirled by she caught sight Of
his smiling countenance.
"Oh, l beg your pardon" she cried,
and narrowly averted a tumble.
When the wheelman had gone a little
farther he looked back over his shout
der and saw a lank young fellow, with
fuzzy little side-whiskers, toiling weari-
ly up the hill.
And he feels pretty sure that this was
the dear one whose early efforts at
wheeling were being encouraged by the
stout lady.

JIM AND JOHN.

Jim and John were townsmen and chums,
and went out to see baseball. 1t was a red
hot afternoon, and the bleachers were like
frying.paus st breakfast time. Jim had a
bald head and John had q crick in the
hack. They sat for an underdone roast and
laughed at everything. Jlm's bald spot
was q shining mark, like a brass door-plate.
A stray ball, fierce and sharp, from a false
hat, struck The spot and p.oughed a iurrow:
IL dazed him. JIni's eyes and face looked
like a sick owls, and John laughed. He
laughed an hour straight along. The game
ran late into twilight. Meanwhile, John
had shed his coat, and a cool, damp draught
got in its work on his back. The time came
10 leave, but John couldn't. lie couldn't
bend or get up. Lumbago had set in in its
worst form. He laughs best who laughs
last, and JiEi had revenge. But they got
down town 10 Jim's room, when he said,
Here's something all those athletes use
for hurts and ailments, and it's the best
known cure for lame back. He rubbed 1t
on Johns back and some on his own head.
They were both feeling cured and comfort
Able from the use of ST. Jacobs Oil, which
Jim always kept in a handy place. He was
O sport himself and knew what was best.
They went to bed. John laughed i'll his
sleep. Both rose in the morning fresh as
daisies; then Jim laughed at John.

SONNET.

Cur yesterdays inthrall our morrows still
By chains no rust of time can wear away,
That with their iron and persistent sway
Serve purposes undreamed of to fulfill
And wake up echoes of the good and ill

Which follow trifling acts Of sudden will
Small streams grow broader as they onward

II we look over the principle events
Of the year Of 1896 we will be impress
ed with the fact that the past year
has been one Of the most exciting
Of the worlds history, both at home
and abroad. To begin with, our own
country has gone through a political
campaign, which for interest and i'm
portsnce has not been equalled since
the year Of 1860, when the antagon-
ism Of the north and south came to a
head, and finally eliminated in the
War OF Secession. Since '92 the bus
mess interests have lain dominant
and it is to be hoped that new activity
will spring up, and there is no one
but who Is glad 10 turn the page OF
1896 into the past, but the foreign
countries have finished the ever con-
tinual changing panorama Of disrup-
ton. Turkey still maintains her de-
sire to continue the destruction Of hu.
man life as she did in the beginning
Of early '96, and the outcome may be
that she will not preserve her nation
al government, anyway, her dIsposi.
ton is so, that she causes any amount
Of diplomatic worry. England and
Germany were jointly connected over
the Trsnsvaal affair. The relations
between the United States and Eng
land we're seriously threatened over
the VENEZUELAN boundary Italy suf
fered humilisting defeat at the
hands of the Savage King Menelex

has developed into a modern power.
But Russia of all the European pow
