P. p. p, Llppman's Great Remedy, Saves
Man From Becoming Cripple.

Mr.. Asa Ammons, well known
citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was
afflicted by a terrible ulcer. Medical
skill seemed unavailing in stopping the
ravageS of the terrible disease. The
leg was swollen and intensely painful,
as the ulcer had eaten It's way down
to the very bone. All medicines and
treatments having failed to effect
cure, the doctors said the leg must
come off. Just when it seemed that
MIR. Ammons would become disabled
and a crippled man, he tried P. p. P,
Lippman's Great Remedy, and the re-
suit was wonderful.
PIP P. SAVES HIS LEG.
Jacksonville, Fla, July /, 1885,
Two years ago had the worst ulcer
on my leg ever saw. It had eaten
down to the bone. and my whole leg
below my knee, and my foot was
swollen and inflamed. The bone was
swollen and painful, and discharged
most offensive matter. My physicians
said l had necrosis of the bone, and
my leg would have to come off. At
this stage l commenced to take P. P. P.
and to battle my leg with hot CASTLE
soap sudS. 1t began to improve at
once and healed rapidly, and is to-day
a sound and useful leg.
~ think p. P. P, Lippman's Great
Remedy, is all man could ask for as
a blood purifier, as have known it to
cure so meterrible cases of blood poi
soning in remarkably short time.

PUT A SNAKE IN HIS vALISE.
Be1levillc Man Badly Scared by Two
Practical Jokers.

Ben Ward, an employee Of the Bell
Telephone company at Belleville, ILL.,,
has no earthly use for snakes He
thinks St. Patrick was the greatest
benefactor of ancient or modern times
and wishes the great snake charmer had
exercised his talent in st. Clair county.
Frank Groskey and Steve Woods, two
of his friends, know of his antipathy to
creeping things. The other day they
went out in the woods and killed small
reptile which they afterward struggled
into Wards valise.
When Ward went up to his room at
the Metropolitan hotel in st. Louis, he
opened the grip. The snake was coiled
up inside with it's mouth open. Ward
took one swift look at it's thorax and
fled yelling downstairs.
There's rattlesnake in my room"
he told Landlord Corwin. "It's IL feet
long and has teeth in its face. Itwagged
its tongue at me and green fire flashed
from its eyes"
ooh, pshaw," said Mr.. Corwin, you're
a bit unstrung. Take something"
"N-n-n-no. Take it away: Real snakes
are bad enough"
At Wards urgent request. the land
lord went upstairs and to his surprise
really did find snake in the valise.
But it was only two feet long, had no
molars visible to the naked eye and had
several hours before lost the power of
wagging its tongue or shooting fire out
of it's eyes. Mr.. Ward would not return
to the room, however, until the corpse
had been removed and thorough
search made for others.

TITLED LADY WAS THE MODEL
Countess Zichy Posed for Painting
of n Nude Nymph-

Countess Zichy Posed for a Painting
of n Nude Nymph-
1t has Just come to light that Countess
Itchy was the model for painting Of
o nude nymph in the large drawing
room of the Brazilian minister, Don De
Mendonca, who is noted connoisseur
and collector of art. The artist was
Baron Arpad Paszthory- Bellerini, who
wanted to marry his model, but was
robbed of her by Count Itchy. Until
recently Minister Mendonca knew moth
ing of the history of his beautiful pic-
ture. He purchased it while on one OF
his numerous trips abroad because OF
its artistic worth, the handsome face
and perfect figure, little dreaming that
the model for 1t was q member OF the
aristocratic circles of Europe.
The painting was hung in the min
ister's drawing-room and attracted
great attention during Mrs Mendonca's
reception. One afternoon recently
party Of distinguished foreigners called
ut the legation. When their eyes rested
upon the painting they stood spell
bound. Then, after talking long and
earnestly among themselves, they in
uuired If Mrs. Mendonca was aware of
the identity of "The Nymph at the
Pool" She said she was not, and 1t was
then she heard the remarkable story of
Countess Zicy, who before her marriage
to the count had, posed in "the alto
gether" for Baron Arpad Paszthory-Bel-
'lerini. The baron had revenged himself
ON his model by selling the picture.
The painting of 'The Nymph at the
PooT represents beautiful blonde
woman kneeling on one knee beside a
pool over the brink of which she looks
into the clear waters. The pool is on the
left of the picture, the woman facing it
from the right hand side. With one
hand she brushes back luxuriant hair
falling in disorder. The left hand
touches the ground near her knee. The
scene is in a forest, with Pickering
shadows from the overreaching trees.

GRAIN FOR SOUTH AFRICA.
Rush of Shipments to That Part of

the World About to Begin.
The New York Herald says: It
leaked out on the Brooklyn water front
that the rush of grain to South Africa
is about to be resumed.
The British steamship Kurdistan,
which sailed from the North Central
pier, took $4,000 bushels of wheat, and
the British steamship Mount Sephar
has commenced to load 10000 bushels
of wheat at the iron elevator.
1t is the best No. 1 spring wheat and
is worth here about one dollar bushel.
Freight costs 25 cents, bags and sewing
10 cents, so that it will cost about s1.40
per bushel by the time it reaches its
destination. 1t is said that for the
next three months the shipments to the
Cape and to the West African ports will
be as great as those of last year, which
were unparalleled in the history of
South Africa.
At the same time enormous quanti-
ties of mining and agricultural machin-
cry and other American products win
complete the cargoes.
