Ringing the pell and Running.

"In the days when knockers graced the
house door, said Mr.. Stoggleton, "the
small boy found sport in banging the
knocker and running. When bells came
in, he yanked on the bell pull and then
fed. Nowadays he mysteriously presses
the button, but the sport Of calling people
TO the door for nothing Is not what IL was.
and it seems probable that with the gen
cral introduction of the push button, it
will finally fall into decadence.
"Ihere was some fun in pounding with
the door knocker, whose thunder reverber-
ated through the hall and filed the
house, all Of which you could hear your
self. And you could yank the bell out TO
the limit, causing the bell TO fly almost
off the spring; there was fun in this But
there is no such fun in pushing in "a push
button. You can press that in perhaps n
quarter of an inch, and that is all you can
do with it. Say you are in the yestibule
of fat. Very likely you don't hear the
bell ring at all; it may be that 1t is up
three or four flights of stairs; you hear
no sound. Nobody comes 10 the door; you
don't have TO run. Possibly the people
whose bell you have rung may press a
button up there in the air somewhere and
you may hear the click of the door opener
at your side, or they may not do even that
cit is dry fun; not like the old slam
bang knocker on the outside Of the door
or the bell pull with the jingle bell right
in the hall. New York sun

A FISH WITH A RESERVOIR.
when He Comes on Land, Queer Mol
lusk Fires NOlley In His Face.

when He Comes on Land, Queer Mol
lusk Fires "A Nolley In His Face.
The quecrost Of all queer eyed animals
is the pcriophthalmus, fish inhabiting
the coasts of China, Japan, India, the
Malayan archipelago and eastern Africa.
This strange creature, when in pursuit
of its prey, leaves the sea and comes out
on the sands, thus existing for the greater
portion of its life in an element which,
according To the nature of things, ought
90 be fatal TO It, The laws of evolution
have, however, eminently prepared it for
Its peculiar mode Of life. It's gill cavities
are so large that when it abandons the sea
it carries in them quantity Of water
which yields up the necessary supply OF
oxygen.
Its locomotion has been provided for
likewise, for continued use along certain
lines has so developed its pectoral fins that
the creature uses them as legs and jumps
along at "A surprising rate of speed. Its
eyes are very large and prominent, and
possess for fish the peculiar faculty Of
looking around on all sides; hence its
name, periophthalmus. These eyes are
situated ON top of the animals head and
present a very grOtesque appearance.
The faVorite food of this fish, says The
Medical Record, is a naked mollusk called
onchidium. And in the matter of eyes
this last mentioned creature is itself worthy
of remark.
Its cephalic or head eyes are like those
Of other mollusks and not worthy of spe-
cial mention. But its dorsal eyes, some
times several hundred in number, are
truly remarkable. These dorsal eyes, al
though they are very simple in structure,
in type are the same as those of vertebrate
animals, having cornea, lenses, retina and
"blind spots" In the vertebrate eye the
spot where the optic nerve pierces the ex-
ternal layer of the retina is sightless; hence
it is called the "blind spot. i"
When this mollusk sees the periophthal-
mus bounding over the sands, it contracts
thousand or so Of little bladderlike cells
in the skin Of its back, thereby discharg-
ing IA hailstorm Of minute corrections in
the face Of It's enemy.
The fish, terrified and amazed by The
vollcy, turns aside, and the mollusk Is
saved. Thus its dorsal eyes are of great
advantage 10 the onchidium. 1t is NOT
able, like the periophthalmus, to move
these eyes, yet, situated as they are all
over its back, IL possesses the power Of
seeing in every direction.

OF the most widely-known men in the
State, was cured OF rheumatism after
three years OF suffering. He says: 81

to convey any idea OF what suffered,
my physicians told me that nothing
could be done for me and nv friends were
fully convinced that nothing but death
would relieve me OF my suffering. In
June, 1894, Mr.. Evans, then salesman
for the Wheeling Drug Co., recommended
Chamberlain Pain Balm. At this time
my foot and limb we're swollen to more
than double their normal size and IL
seemed to me my leg would burst, but

The Best Remedy for Rheumatism

From the Fairhaven On. W Register
Mr. James Rowland OF this village, states
that for twenty-five years his wife has
been sufferer from rheumatism. A few
nights ago she was in such pain that she
was nearly crazy. She sent Mr.. Row
land for the doctor, but he had read OF
Chamberlain's Pain Balm and instead OF
going for physician he went to the
store and secured bottle OF it. His wife
did not approve OF Mr.. Rowland's pur-
chase at first, but nevertheless applied
the Balm thoroughly and in an hour
time was able to go to sleep. She now
applies 1t whenever she feels an ache or a
pain and finds that it always gives relief.
He says that no medicine which she had
used ever did her as much good. The
