RARE WORKS OF ART.
Treasure. OF the Goncourt Brother
Hiring Great Prices.

Treasures OF the Goncourt Brothers
Hiring Great Prices.
All the great pictures in the Con-
court collection have now been sold at
the Hotel Drouot and have realized
G96 900 francs. or f27,SiO. says a Paris
letter. II Is to be noted that the broth
ers Goncourt. as related in the famous
diary. often pinched themselves in Or
der to purchase pictures and art OBJ
jects for their collection. They would
undoubtedly be surprised II they were
alive to read the prices obtained at the
recent sale for old drawings and en-
cravings which they picked up years
ago on the Paris quays and elsewhere
for a few gold or silver pieces. They
were keen dilettanti and knew good
works OF art when they saw them. but
they could hardly have realized that a
sketch by the younger Moreau, for
which they paid about a dollar. would
be purchased years afterwards for hun
dreds of dollars. There Is now every
prospect that the Goncourt academy
NAV become an accomplished fact, and
that the literary legatces. as well as the
moor relations, may receive something
worth having out of the estate. When
Edmond de Gouncourt died It was con-
adently asserted by many that his
artistic collections would not realize
Es. 900, whereas his pictures and en-
cravings alone have already brought in
more than treble that amount.

the last time Mr.. Conn had been seen by
the Times Herald man he was on crutcbes
and in terrible condition, the subject of his
recovery was the topic of conversation. The
following is resume of Mr.. Conn's story:
ou are aware that from overwork and
exposure in April, 1894, contracted sciatica
and rheumatism, and grew steadily worse,
notwithstanding the best of medical treat
nent that the neighborhood afforded, until
! was at last confined to my bed, and what
crutches. From the time was taken until
August, 1895, / tried every remedy could
hear OF without any relief whatever. 1t
was at that time that a friend recommended
Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and was so en-
thusinstic over their virtues that was per-
suaded to try them, and began to take them
in September, 1895. / was rather discour-
aged at first to find myself decidedly worse,
but was urged by my frinds to persevere
and give the medicine fair trial and SO
did After while began to feel an i'm
provement, though it was not noticeable't to
tuose aiouIu me, Dut knew was better,
and soon was SO elated that foolishly dis
carded my crutches, and received severe
fall for my pains. This so retarded my re-
povery that l became disheartened, and
ave up taking Pink Pills, SO great was my
discouragement l shortly after this mis-
hap and set back, began agnin to take Pink
Pills steadily and perseveringly, and in q
short time could walk without crutches,
and in January, 1895, was able to discon-
tinue the medicine altogether, being entire
ly cured. Since then l have cleared a
piece of brush land, and planted and at
tended this years crop. l took in all
seventeen boxes of DIR. Williams Pink Pills
before was entirely cured"
Mr.. Conn's address is Pleasantville Mar
ion Co, Iowa, where he is as well known
as in Knoxville, his former home.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain, in a con-
densed form, all the elements necessary to
give new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are also a

NATURES OWN PROTECTION.
Explanation of Why ~ Swelling Follows


Explanation of Why Swelling Follows
Fran "a Ii Ow.
The swelling which follows from blow Is
natures effort to protect the part from fur
they Injury and to keep 1t ut rest while re-
pair is going on. What actually takes place
at the seat of Injury Is not even now quite
understood. The Injury to the smaller blood
vessels inierefcrrs with the flow of blood
through them and the white corpuscles, with
part of the serum, the watering part of the
blood, escape into the surrounding tissues.
At the same time the blood vessels In the
nelghborhood diatc and the increased flow
Of blood with the thoroughfare obstructed
increases the swelling.
1t 10 probable that the white corpuscles or
the blood pass Into the tissues to assist In
the repair. as bees or ants assemble at an
injury to their storehouse, but with this DIFF
ference that the substance of the corpuscles
is probably converted into the tissue of re-
pair. From one point of view the human
body Is only one gigantic colony OF indlvid-
uals, and the swelling that follows injury
but the rush OF these to repair the breach.
