CATARRE1.
COLD IN THEHEAD

Is acute Inflammation and swelling os the
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves of Smell. This organ is a long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage IN folds, as
seen In Fig. 3. When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, il is called
CATARRH. The folds become swollen
into a solid mass, SO the air in breathing
cannot circulate between them ; hence
the loss of smell. TheCatarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing a
multitude of small ulcers bstween these
folds. The pus from these uleers is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface of the nose, head
and throat with the disease. Medical
works show cases where the tonsIls have
become corrupt mass of ulcers. 1t not
infrequently involves thewhole bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consump-
ton and death. Il will be seen that
nothing can radically cure Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds of the Olfactory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.

prove that the dividend is TO be increased

VERMONT PEAKS.

The Burlington Free Press recently
had an interesting editorial on
''Heights Of the Vermont Peaks" In
it is shown the different measurements
made of the principal SUBMITS OF the
mountains in our state from the first
present. The early figures reported
the Chin OF Mt. Mansfield to be 1879
feet, Cancels Hump 41O3, the Nose
1858, Killington Peak, 1924. A survey
by the United States Coast and
Geodetic survey several years ago
gave Mr.. Mansfield 4071 feet and
Killington 1921; but it is said the
n easurements on Mt. Mansfield were
then made from the Nose-not the
chin. \ survey has been made this
summer by the United States Coast
and Geodetic survey, but the exact
figures are not given out, as compu
tation of verticle angles is not yet
completed, but the Free Press is in
formed by Mr.. Mossman, the assistant
of the Geodetic survey that "the
height of the chin of Mt. Mansfield
is about 400 feet-the chin being
about 800 feet higher than the Nose;
and that the height of Killington is
greater than that of the Nose and less
than that of the Chin. The exact fig
ures will be given as soon as compu-
tations are completed, and ought to
settle, for all intelligent persons, the
fact that Mt. Mansfield remains tn e
highest of the Green Mountains, with
Killington a good second.

4 GREAT GAME PARK.

Mr.. G. T. Ferris contributes an arti-
Gle on ''Wild Animals in a New Eng
land Game Park" to the October Cen
tury. Mr.. Ferris says, in describing
the late Austin Corbin's New Hamp
shire preserves:
Blue Mountain Forest Park, as the
preserve is called, includes parts of
four townships, and lies near the en-
terprising borough Of Newport on the
Concord and Claremont branch of the
Boston & Maine Railroad. It is said
to be the biggest game park in the
work, except one owned by the Duke
of Sutherland in Scotland, and one or
two royal demesnes on the Continent.
Of course, in making comparisons one
must exclude those immense public
preserves, as big as provinces, where
the British government of India seeks
to save the elephant from extinction,
and our own national parks in the
west.
The name of Blue Mountain attach
es to the entire spur of hills which BIZ
sects the park, while Croydon desig-
mates it's highest shoulder rising to
the height of nearly three thousand
feet. The steep and densely wooded
heights Of Croydon, curving like a
hump, break the sky line in the shape
of camePs back; near by skirting
canon opens carriage route across
the mountain Tn If
belongs rather to the Green Mountain
than to the White Mountain range,
though it seems disconnected from
both. The verdure of an immense
forest of spruce, fir, hemlock, pine,
birch, beech and maple infolds it to
the very crest, with here and there a
brown patch of clearing. The great
er part of the Corbin enclosure con-
sists of abandoned farms, many of
them already beginning to bristle with
saplings; for the woods are on the
march. DIsmantled houses with win
dows and doors gaping like holes in a
skull, ramshackle barns rotten and
weather stained, the wreck of stone
fences thick set with BRAN bles-these
meet the eye at every turn.
The general outline of the park is
that of an ellipse with respective di-
ameters of about four and a half and
eleven miles, and the surface is cut
diagonally by a backbone of noun
tain running northeast. The lower
j! slopes and the meadow levels are di-
versifed with brooks and swamp
| land, while extensive groves of Sec
ond growth profusely dot the surface.
It is in these that the wild swine, the
progenitors Of which clashed their

The Grandest Remedy.

Mr.. R. B. Greeve, merchant, of Chilhowie,
Va, certifes that he had consumption, was
given up to die, sought all medical treatment
that money could procure, tried all cough
RENE dies he could hear of, but got no relief;
spent many nights sitting up in chair; was
induced to try DIR. Kings New Discovery,
and cured by of two bottles. For

tusks against the boar spears of me-
di@val kings and barons, root and
propagate their kind with fecundity
which is marvel to the keepers.
One can scarcely grasp the bigness
of the park by figures. But let the
reader fancy demesne considerably
more than double the size of Boston
and all its suburbs; thirty times the
area of Central Park, New York; al
most ten times bigger than Paramount
Park, Philadelphia; or fourteen times
the acreage of the whole park system
of Chicago. Roads, many of them
thoroughfares of days gone by, va
riously intersect the enclosure, and
an excellent carriage track crosses
the park from east to west through
the picturesque notch. On the wes-
tern side the declivity is more sloping
and open, but has the same agreeable
diversity of scene.
A wire fence, partly mesh, partly
barbed, nearly eight feet in height
and twenty seven miles in circuit,
confines the four footed tenants with
in it's steel barrier. The same posts
which support the fence until the
trees which have been set shall have
grown to take their place, string
telephone connecting the nine sub
stations at the different gates with
the central station, the home of the
superintendent, the Corbin villa, and
the town of Newport The keepers
and other employees of the park vary
front w enty- five to fifty, according
to the season of the year. 1t need
scarcely be said that the needs of at
tendance compel a vigilance which
never rests. Merely to watch the
fence, lest it should have parted
somewhere by accident or wanton
malice, requires an inspection twice
week.

The current number of Hdrper's
Weekly contains a very interesting
illustrated article upon the "Moving
Of the great grain crop" The crop
this year is estimated at 500, 100000
bushels and as over zoe, ZOO, 600 bushels
are required by the Old World, the
shipment of this enormous bulk is
taxing the capacity of the railroads,
canal boats and ocean steamers to
fullest extent. Henry LOOMS Nelson
contributes paper upon the "The
Feminisme Movement in France"
especially with reference to the en-
joyment by woman of share at least,
in her own property, and the increas-
ed independence she would thereby
gain, and the different light in which
she would be regarded. Other topics
of special interest are fully illustra-
ted paper by D. P. Stephens on "Small
Yachts and Yachtracing in 1897" and
a description of that unique and won
derfulIy useful institution, the ttCom-
mercial Museum at Philadelphia.

AFTER THE SURRENDER.

Gen. Horace Porter, in his Cam
paigning with Grant, in the October
Century, describes the surrender at
Appomattox. Gen. Porter says:
Before parting Lee asked Grant to
notify Meade of the surrender, fearing
that fighting might break out on that
front, and lives be uselessly lost. This
request was complied with, and two
Union officers were sent through the
enemies lines as the shortest route
TO Meade, some Of Lees officers ac-
companying them to prevent their
being intefered with. A little before
four O'Clock Gen. Lee shook hands
with Gen. Grant, bowed to the
other officers, and with Col. Marshall
left the room. One after another we
followed, and passed out to the porch.
Lee signaled to his orderly to bring
up his horse and while the animal was
being bridled the general stood on the
lowest step, and gazed sadly in the
direction of the valley beyond, where
his army lay-now an army of prison
ers. He thrice smote the palm OF his
left hand slowly with his right fist in
al absent sort Of way, seemed not to
see the group of Union officers in the
yard, who rose respectfully at his APP
proach, and appeared unaware Of
everything about him. All appreciat-
ed the sadness that overwhelmed him,
and he had the personal sympathy of
every one who beheld him at this SUI
preme moment of trial. The approach
Of his horse seemed to recall him from
his reverie, and he at once mounted.
Gen. Grant now stepped down from
the porch, moving toward him, and
saluted him by raising his hat He
was followed in this act Of courtesy
by all our officers present. Lee rails
ed his hat respectfully, and rode off
at slow trot to break the sad news
to the brave fellows whom he had so
long commanded.
Gen. Grant then started for the
headquarters camp, which, in the
meantime, had been pitched near Dy.
The news Of the surrender had reach
ed the Union lines, and the firing of
salutes began at several points; but
the general sent an order at once to
have them stopped, using these words:
''The war is over; the rebels are
our countrymen again; and the best
sign Of rejoicing after the victory will
be I'd absEain5rom all demonstrations
in the field" This was in keeping
with his order issued after the surren-
der Of Vicksburg: ''The paroled pris-
oners viii be sent out OF here tomor-
row. =. Instruct the commanders
to be orderly and quiet as these pris-
oners pass, and to make no offensive
remarks"

a Queer Magistrate.

Magistrate Mott is a peculiar sort OF
individual, and he would have to do
something mighty radical to surprise
the people of this city. He uses the dis
erection given to magistrates in the most
liberal manner sometimes Recently he
fiared up in the Yorkville police court
and administered sharp lecture to Will
liam Carroll, an assistant foreman in
the street cleaning department, for do
ing the specific duty for which he is
paid by the city.
Carroll was the complainant against
August Blumenthal, who owns row
of flats on West Eighty-frst street He
charged that Blumenthal allowed his
tenants to mix their garbage with the
other refuse in violation of the law.
Mott listened to him, and then said:
1.-The street cleaning department is
TRYING to run this town. 1t is altogeth-
er too dictatorial to the taxpayers. The
prisoner is discharged. )"
Carroll was dazed, but naturally he
did not dare reply to the magistrate as
he deserved. JOSEPH RUSSELL

Wednesday. July 1-p. m.

Several well-known operators began to bid the
market up soon after the opening to-day the
result of which was general covering move
ment among yesterdays short sellers and a uni
fornly strong market throughout the rest of the
day. Opening prices were slightly under last
nights closing, but final prices showed net gains
in most issues and in number OF shares sub
stanta advances were made. ST Paul was
notably strong at a maximum advance Of ia
per cent and final gain Of ~ per cent. despite
further foreign selling. 1t is hard to figure out
the basis upon which London continues a seller
Of stocks and especially difficult in the case Of
st. Paul, unless ii is that foreign operators can
not bring themselves to believe that prices will
not go considerably higher than those prevailing
at present. ST. Paul has in the current move
ment reached its highest price of this year and
of last but friends of the stock expect to see il
sell at par before the end OF the year and.
its chances Of being put in the , per cent divi-
dend class are extremely favorable, there is
good reason for believing that Its market value
will gradually approach the figure predicted II
London is selling American securities on the
theory that they have reached top prices, II Is
making great mistake. Conservative holders
of investment securities give little attention 10
the ephemeral views Of boardroom traders. but
they do pay considerable attention TO the broad
and general conditions bearing upon the coun
trys business. and at present they feel cOnviced
that these conditions warrant the holding Of
stocks and the placement OF new capital into
business enterprises.
This confidence on the part Of holders OF securi-
ties makes bear efforts in the stock market Of
little consequence. and the result of short sell
ing under present conditions. is not satisfactory
or profitable to the operators INDUCING in II.

many important interests which were recently

ness. and commisson-hOuse buying was small;
but the absence Of these two factors was con-
sidered only temporary withdrawal from
security operations, and not a reflection Of fear
or uncertainty among moneyed interests. The
aggressive strength displayed by st. Paul helped
the prices of the other Granger shares, and in
fact affected speculative sentiment favOrably
or all shares. The anthracite shares were
strong and throughout the list the advancing
tendency continued up 10 ihe end OF business,
