Weakened One Mans Constitution
Until 1t Brought Him to
Deaths Door.

Mr. James S. Harrison, well-known
and highly respected citizen of Cleve-
land, o., was for years a sufferer from
dyspepsia and general debility, and in
his weakened condition, resulting from
the above causes, he had the additional
ill-luck to fall victim to malaria from
this complication of disorders. Mr..
Harrison's condition was becoming very
serious, when he commenced to take p.
P. P, Lippman's Great Remedy. Its
effects were marked and immediate.
Read his letter to us. Its earnestness
is apparent:
GENTLEMEN: For the benefit of all
suffering from dyspepsia and general
debility beg to submit my testimonial
as to the efficacy of your P. P. p, Lipp-
mans Great Remedy, as a positive
cure for all the distressing complaints
from which suffered.
My system was also full of Malaria
and my condition was growing very
serious; had no appetite, was losing
strength and was completely broken
down in health, but now my health is
completely restored, and can eat like
a field laborer, without the slightest
fear of any serious results.
take great pleasure in telling the
world that Z. P. p. did the grand work
of restoring me to my accustomed
health. Yours truly,
JAMES S. HARRISON,
Cleveland, 0.

Austria has just celebrated with be-
fitting ceremony the centenary of her

of the celebration was state perform
ance of the drama entitled Joseph
Haydn, who was the composer of the
grand song. The performance took the
form of a series Of biographical pictures
at the court theater i'll the presence of
the emperor, and every one of the scenes
represented a phase of the great mu-

The most remarkable feature of the
report just presented to the English
parliament with regard to the condition
of Egypt during the last IL months is
the description by the British resident,
Lord Cromer, Of the success that has at
tended the new experiment of state adj
vanccs to the natives on the security Of
their crops. Until now the only people
to whom the peasantry could apply for
loans of this character We're the Greek,
Syrian and Hebrew money lenders, who
invariably exacted from 30 to 40 per
cent interest, The government has now
inaugurated the practice Of making adj
vances at per cent interest and is able
to show profit to itself, as well as a
vast economy Of cost to the natives.
This new scheme is but one Of the many
benefits conferred upon the land Of the
Nile by its British protectors. New

To convey an idea of the terrorism
which has been inaugurated at Vienna
by the enormously powerful and fanatic
anti-Semite party it may be mentioned
that the management of the Carl thea
ter, which is achieving SO great sue
cess with ''Trilby,'' has not dared to
make Svengali Jew, but has convert
ed him into Hungarian bandmaster.
The greatest pains are taken by the emf
nent actor who plays the part to lead
the audience to forget the Jew in the
gypsy.

Chairman, and r. Printice, Town
Clerk, signed to it. One other, which
was the first ordinance relating to cell
lar ways steps etc. eyer adopted IN
the city, is dated April gath, 1857, ana
allows the ctizens to occupy four feet
of the sidewalk for entrance to cellar
and for door steps, providing the cellar
way is protected by railing. 50 far
as we know, this has never been re-
pealed but it expressly prohibits going
higLer than the first story with steps.
OF course all these old ordinances were
repealed BY the Constitution of 1852,
but custom and usage are sometimes OF
higher authority than even law or an
ordinance.
The Act of Incorporation referred to
divided the City into two wards; all
south of Market Square run Goose
RUM was the first ward, and all north
of the same was the second ward, with
three Counciltnen from each ward.
The Recorder was Vice President, so
to speak, of the City, for in the absence
or stability of the Mayor, he took his
place. The Town Council reported to
the Annual Towu Meeting, which was
held in February. At this meeting the
Recorder reported the number of days |

FOR A LONG AND HAPPY LIFE.
he Well Fed, Well warmed ana Well
Rested.


Were l asked for receipt for
longevity, beauty and happiness, l
would write: "Be well fed, we'll warmed
and well rested" Many people arc thor
oughly welded to the idea that it is
just as well to sit down and work on,
or that it is sign of laziness to lie
down in the daytime, says the Ladies'
Home Journal, There is just such ig-
norance in the world-for ignorance it
is-of the simplest physical laws. If
u woman is observed to rest often she
is soon regarded as "lazy." People who
are averse TO exercise, or lag easily in
their work, are sick. When people shun
exertion it is because the physical bal
ance is weakened.
Another odd bit of bigotry stands like
n "lion in the way" Our grandfathers
and grandmothers did not do SO, etc.
In this case it is plain that they did
not need the amount of rest that is re-
quired in these days. They had not
q tenth of the distractions of these
hurly wing times. Besides, perhaps, if
they had not such faith in their
straightforward chairs and long hours
their progeny might have been blessed
with stronger nerves. Therefore, my
weary, quick-tempered, cross woman,
hasten to be "healthy, wealthy and
wise" by going to bed early and often.
Also invest in some sort of comfortable
couch, which shall be installed in the
post of honor in your sitting-loom, and
then-uSe it.

ONLY A LITTLE PLAYFUL.
The TcnderfoOt. However. Didn't
Agree with the Owner.

Agree with the Owner.
"He amt vicious, stranger, and amt
got a single mean trait"
So spoke the owner of the mustang
to the tendcrfoot who was sojourning
in the hills of southwestern Missouri,
says the Detroit Free Press.
"You just get ON and try him and
if you don't like him don't buy him.
He may be bit spry and playful, but
THAT'S cause he's been in the stable
over a week."
The tenderfoot sprang to the saddle
and what happened thereafter he only
dmly remembered. The horse reared;
then he came down on all fours, with
his legs as stiff as n sawhorsc. Having
repeated this operation half a dozen
times, he sprang forward and covered
"a good section of the country at :01
gait, with no running mate, either. Hc
reared, leaped, plunged and finally made
his way back 10 the starting point, made
as if to roll over and then dived for the
stable door, leaving the horseman dazed,
dumb and limp in bush near the road
side. The owner helped the would-be
purchaser to his feet, Strengthened him
out and iammed his battered hat on
his head
What kind-kind of n horse do you
call that?" gasped the tenderfoot.
"Sho! He's all right. Been in the
stable a week, that's all. Feels a bit
playful. But he has a right nice gait.
What do you think of that single foot of
h;S'n ?"

THE LONGFELLOW STATUE.
Fitting Memorial of the Poet at Port.
land, His birthplace.

land. His birthplace.
One of the best instances of what the
statue of any great man should beat
its perspective with regard to other
memorials and the local estimation in
which it is held-is the statue of Long
fellow at Portland, says the Atlantic.
1t is dignified seated figure of the poet
in bronze, occupying conspicuous site
in the best part of the town, in the mid
die of a square which is known as Long
few years ago by q fund solicited
through a wide field, but chiefly OBJ
tanned in Portland. The sculptor was
chosen through that curious local spirit
which has affected unfavorably many of
our architectural and other monu-
ments. He was avowedly selected be-
cause he was "Maine man." though he
had never seen the poet. However, the
result in this case seems to have been
happy. The statue has much beauty
and the likeness is said to be excellent.
This statue stands in the poets native
town, as is entirely proper. It may APP
peal every day to the eyes of thousands
of young people, born very much as he
was born. who should see in it the sug-
gestion of possibility for them. Poet
ically it makes the stranger fancy the
genius or spirit of the man still lingcr-
ing among the scenes of his youth, and
it symbolizes the satisfaction which
every man feels to have his name re-
membered in his native town.

WORK DONE BY THE SUN.
1t pniIy Raises 215, ,OoO, ,OOO, 900 Tons of
Water.


Water.
1t has repeatedly been proposed to
make use of the enormous power issu-
ing from the sun in the shape of heat
rays. What enormous amount of labor
is done by the sun on this earth alone
is evidenced in part by the circulation
of water on the earth's surface. Every
day the heat of the sun turns into
vapor large amount of water on all
the watery surfaces, and these rising
vapors are far above us converted into
clouds, which the cool currents of air
carry overland to countries which arc
not blessed with plenty of the fluid
element, and upon further condensa-
ton the clouds in the shape of rain
fall upon the earth. In smaller or
larger quantities water streams again
toward the sea, and during this course
man undertakes to withdraw from the
water part Of the stored-up power of
the sun. using it for industrial pur-
poses. The Paris meteorologist, Prof.
Mctericht, estimates the quantity of
water turned into vapor by the sun in
the Mediterranean sea alone on a clear,
hot summer day at not less than $780,
10000 tons. At that rate the quantity
of water taken from the entire globe
on one hot day within the limits of the
temperate and tropical zones would
amount to not less than 2ij,O0O,OOO ZOO
tons.

Animals with Eloquent Tails.

Which organ in animals is most used
to express emotion? Since it may be
said that, within the sense of the ques-
ton, there are scarcely any dumb ami
mals-even the hair utters a most ago.
nized scream of terror when overhunted
it may be said that the vocal organs
are, after all, those most universally
used for this purpose among animals,
as among the human races. There are
very few animals which do not utter
some characteristic sound to express
Joy or sorrow, satisfaction, disgust OF
fear. Next to the voice would probably
come the tail, though, curiously enough,
different species of animals use this
organ to express quite contrary emo
tions. The dog tribe wag it to express
joy or pleasurable anticipations. The
felines express anger by the same move
ment. but both canine and feline ex.
press fear by curling it between the legs
while the bovine species express anger
by erecting it above the line of the back.
Elephants express anger by lashine
their tails and waving their ears, horses
do the same by laying the ears back.
Birds expand the feathers of the tail tc
express pride or defiance, and elevate
them to show pleasure. The whale.
too, indicates rage and suffering by
furious blows of the tail.-Bostou

A HEROINE ON A BICYCLE.

Rides Two Miles for a DOctOr. Gives
Him Her Wheel, and Walks Back.
Still another bicyclist story, and this
one has a real heroine, the kind of a
heroine who, if the story was a ro-
nance, would convert a father and
brother and two or three sneering men
cousins to the belief that the bicycle is
essentially womanly belonging. This
not being a romance, there were NO fa-
theirs, brothers, and young men cousins
to be converted, but the heroine was a
heroine just the same.
It was in Brooklyn and three young
women and three young men, friends
since lang syne, went for long cycle
ride and took their luncheons with
them. Luncheon time had come and all
the viands were spread out in tempting
array when one of the young men who
had complained of feeling unwell
earlier in the day, tainted and gave evil
dence of being very ill.
This was the time for the heroine to
show the qualities which are most adj
mirable in heroine, common sense and
quick wit. She remembered imme-
diately doctor living within two miles
or so of the picnic ground. one whom
she knew well, and who also knew the
invalid. She jumped on her wheel-all
heroines jump-rode at her best speed
Cor the doctor, found him, turned over
her wheel to him, and he with medi-
cine case in hand rode off and was with
the sick man, it seemed. in about IS
minutes from the time he was taken i'll.
And the plucky heroine walked back
that two miles in the hot sum. Y.

POINTS AND OPINIONS.

Whenever a republican discovers
that his party has abandoned all the
principles of Lincoln, Greeley, Sumner
and Trumbull and is therefore COM
PEELED to leave it, have you noticed what
an idiot and rascal he becomes in the
estimation of the newspapers belong
ing to the Hanna bureau ?-Columbus
(O.) Press.
As well look for oranges to grow
in Siberia or snowstorms to prevail at
the equator as to expect the republican
administration to bring about general
prosperity. It's daily business is the
systematic and legalized pillage of the
people. Its regular occupation is rob-
bing Peter, the producer, to pay Paul,
the plutocrat.-Kansas City Times.
The Dingley bill Is a splendid
deficit producer, and the only hope Of
the republican party is the internal rev.
enue department. If the people of the
United States will forget their party
differences and unite in patriotic de-
termination TO drink more whisky the
deficit may be cured. II they will
double their allowance Of whisky per
day the increase of internal revenue will
be sufficient to wipe out the deficit
caused by the Dingley bill. We are
confronted by a condition and not a
theory. The republican party in effect
solemnIy announces: '.Now is the time
to get drunk and restore prosperity."-
Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
The republican tariff has proved
a tariff for deficit. 1t has not brought
in more revenue to the government. but
less. And meantime the gold reserve
has climbed up until now 1t is more
than S14s, 100000. The United States
government is not run on the treasury
gold reserve, however. AID the fact
that there is plenty Of gold in the treas
ury does not offset the other fact that
there Is not enough money of all kinds
coming In. The upholdefs of the re-
publican tariff have TO face the un-
pleasant fact that their scheme for en-
riching the trusts is failure for the
production of revenue. What are they
going to do about it?-Boston Post.
