"MY WIFE'S LIFE"
How | was the means
OF saving it.

When the lungs are attacked and the
symptoms of consumption appear, then
that destroying disease which slays its
thousands annually. IT is happy issue
and health restored. Such an issue does
not always end the struggle, but it did in
the case of Mr.. K. Morris, Memphis, Tenn,
who saw his wife wasting and weakening
and physicians helpless. and then sug-
the cure. He tells the story thus:
"Seven years ago, my wife had severe
attack of lung trouble which the ply
sicians pronounced consumption. The
cough was extremely distressing, espe-
cially at night. and was frequently
attended with the splitting Of blood. The
doctors being unable to help her, I in
duSed her to try Dr; Ayers Cherry Pectoral
aud was surprised at the great relief it
gave. Before using one whole bottle she
was cured, SO that now she is strong and
quite healthy. That this medicine saved
my. wife's life have not the least doubt.

The readers Of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the. foundation
strength by building up the Constitution and
assisting nature in doing it's work. The

InapprOpriate Music.

Speaking of church music, there is nothing
which is so frequent source of wonder to
me as the lack of understanding some of our
church musicians display in their choice of
Cavalleria Rusticana played as an organ
voluntary-that intermezzo whose story of
earthly passions is so plain that it does not
need words. I have heard the same organ
ist play Schubert's "Serenade" on COM
munion Sunday, but the most glaring exhi-
bition of bad taste have ever heard was
prano sang an old hymn to that famous air
of Delilah's, "Samson ct Delilah," the most
passionate music know. She sang it beau
tifully, too, and was evidently utterly un-
conscious of the fact that the meaning Of
music does not depend entirely on the words.
I actually heard the superintendent of the

Had Lost His Faith in Them.

A theatrical manager told story against
himself the other day. An actor came to
him and applied for an engagement. There
did not seem to be much need of him, but
his demands in the way of salary were very
modest, and the manager said to him:
""Well, you may consider yourself engaged.
Come round on Tuesday and I'll try you"
The newly-engaged man looked at the
manager questioningly.
"How about contract?" he asked
oh; never mind contract. We'll have a

It Magazine. All .odor..

Among the most curious recent
inventions is a machine which will
take liquid that has heretofore
been regarded as odorless and, distill
therefrom the most delicate per-
fume. Asdropof perfumery or es-
sence placed on the receiver will, on
applying the nostril to the nosepiece
or opening. produce an overpower-
ing stencil that would in a very
short time, if continued, cause sylnp-
toms Of suffocation. The instrument
can be utilized in nearly every walk
Of life. To the grocer it will prove
Invaluable in detecting adulteration
Of goods. The chemist, druggist and
physician, of course. can find ready
use for it in their business, while it
has been suggested that bank paper
can be tinctured with special odor
tmperceptible to the ordinary sense
of smell, but which could reudily be
detected by the scentograph, thus
greatly lessening the liability of
banks to fraudulent operators. It is
also claimed for the machine that it
will become popular in the homes
of the wealthy, for by the aid Of its
mechanisrn the atmosphere Of a
large mansion can be kept constant
ly permeated with O most delicate
and choice perfume at nominal ex.
pense. For hospitals and sickrooms
its services will prove inestimable.
The machine itself is small affair,
about 10 inches square and s inches
high. It is made of wood, and the
opening where the nostrils are ap-
Piled is nickel plated. - Chicago
