POSITIVE PROOF.

A lady friend of mine has for
several years been troubled with
bumps and pimples on her face
and neck, for which she used va
rlous cosmetics in order to re-
move them and beautify and i'm
prove her complexion but these
local applications were only tenn
porary, and left her skin in worse
condition.
l recommended an internal
preperation-known as Botanic
Blood Balm, (B. b b., which |
have been using and selling about
two years; She used three bottles
and all her pimples have disap-
pesred; her skin is soft and
smooth and her general health
much improved. She expresses
herself much gratified, and can
recommend it to all who are thus
affected. Mrs. S. NJ. WILSON,

The Talk of an Old Nan

old-timers now and then and give
him attention. He may not con-
vince you that there is steady
degeneration going on In all de-
partments of business, but he will
make you believe that certain So
called progressive steps are back
ward steps.
One of these old fellows was in
a reminiscential mood few days
ago and he began to talk as if his
vocal organs had been oiled up
somewhat. For an hour he chew
ed tobacco and talked somewhat
after this style:
"Well, you boys think you are
ALFRED smart these day, and that
you know ten times as much as
yonr daddies and grandsires did
ifty to seventy five years ago.
May be you do know more about
poker and pool and raising checks,
as you call it, and how to sneak
around and huut blind tigers and
still houses, and pollute your
bodies with foul diseases than the

TRIAL OF an AERoMoToR.
RreE Langley Propels . Car by Means OF On,
on the Mount Holly Railroad.

MOUNT HOLLY, N. j., Dec. IA test of an
acroplane propeller designed by Prof. Langley
was made yesterday on the Mount Holly, Lum-
berton and Medford branch OF the Pennsylvania
Railroad. The car used was of the jumper pat
tern, and weighed, together with its equipment,
$500 pounds. On the rear of the car were two
wings in the shape OF propeller blades, each
about nine feet from tip to tip. The framework
was of wood. 1t was covered with stout mus
lin. The power was furnished by a gasoline en-
CINE OF six-horse power. which caused the wings
to rotate.
The start was made from the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad freight depot in Mount Holly. Prof.
Langley was accompanied by j. E. Watkins OF
the smithsonian Institution, Assistant Trainmas-
ter Walter Antrim, Assistant Supervisor Wis
man OF the Pennsylvania Railroad. and two
machinists. When the engine was started the
car travelled slowly at first, on an up grade,
but as a level piece OF track was reached better
time was made. The machinery worked smooth
ly, and the wings made 400 revolutions per
minute, which gave the car a speed OF between
five and six miles an hour. Ono section of tho
road between Mount Holly ard Lumberton was
traversed several times, the result being the
same, or substantially so. each time. The
amount OF. energy developed has not yet been
figured out.
1t was stated that another trial will be made
over the same road by Prof. Langley in a day OF
two. on which occasion the size OF the wings
may be changed and the pitch altered.

sudden close by the abbe's unex pcctod submits,

says In part:
1t may be recalled that the abbe had coll

In all parts of the world. especially In tho United
states. for the building OF n church in tho Eternal
CITY to bear the name Of the patron saint OF the

thus gathered in so reckless and incxcusable q
manner that. although tho church is not yet
completed, the Pope has already boon Obliged
10 advance over l 1000 900 francs out Of his own
excheauer in order TO save the ediflce from being
cured"
The Vatican. In order to explain this sudden
chanRe on the part OF the abbe, declared that
inasmuch, as his father died in q lunatic asylum.
MS only sister is n religious maniac. and that he
himself Is affected with epilepsy. he cannot be
regarded MS altogether responsible. for his &c

OF st. Joachim has been recommended and will
be completed as quickly as possible by the Vati'
can; which Will never, however. be able TO
