Escaped MOntauk Hospital.

NEW YORK, Oct g. 1885.
Messrs. Wells. Richardson & Co:
Gentlemen-If anybody in the whole regi-
ment OF Rough Riders had chance 10
observe the general weakened condition OF
the men when they started back to the
United States, as compared with their
stalwart condition when they sailed from
San Antonio on June S. think 1 had.
Oklahoma is generally regarded as a
healthy climate, and last May, when 1
left there. 1 hardly knew what sickness
meant Earlier in life. however. 1 had
lived in the East. and after a month IN
service knew that what ! needed. in my
general rundown condition, was a nerve
tonic. 1 knew If my nerves were fixed
up there would be no trouble about my
general health as soon as got away from
the army.
l also knew the position that Panes
Ce.ery Compound occupied. although | had
not had occasion to use ii much myself 1
got few bottles of Il and began to take
IL and give 1t to a few of my acqualnt-
ances.
It actually seemed to build up my nerv-
Gus constitution almost as rapidly as tue
Southern climate had torn 1t down. The
same thirg was true Of the other men
gave it TO.
Unless l had found this tonic to restore
my nerves feel sure that ! would have
gone 10 the hospital az Montauk Point
and I might have shared the fate of many
other poor fellows whose impoverished
condition did not yield 20 the doctor's
treatment.
1t gives me pleasure to recommend
Paine's Celery Compound as the best rem
edy ever sold in America.

Direction

Another Effort being Made in That
Direction.
Another effort is afoot TO secure uni-
formity in the text books used in the pub
lie schools Of the state. A bin has been
introduced in the Senate by Mr.. Clifton
Of the Second district looking toward the
adoption OF a uniform set Of books.
There has been a great deal OF legisla-
ton along this line but Il has all been
of a preliminary character. The legisla-
ture before the last provided for the ap
po.ntment of commission by the Gov
ernor 20 look into the matter and report
upon the advisabilty Of the adoption Of
uniform books. 1t was also to consider
the practicabii,ty and feasibility of the
stale printing Its own text books.
This commission reported adversely upon
the matter, and that blow knocked the
movement out for the time being. There
were not few who were greatly pleased
that the commission so reported for mil
formity in text books is something that

And Save Endless Suf-
fering which Winter
Brings.

The most offensive of all dis
eases becomes more intense as cold
weather approaches. In fact,
many who have been under treat
ment for so long, and during the
summer feel little discomfort from
the disease, are almost persuaded
that they have been cured. But
the first chilling blast of winter
proves that the disease is still with
them, and as the winter advances,
their Catarrh grows In severity.
Those who have felt only a slight
touch of Catarrh may be sure that
only cold weather is needed to de-
velop the disease. What appears
to be only a bad cold will prove
more difficult TO cure than for
merly, and will return with more
frequency, until before long the
disease is fully developed.
For years 1 suffered from a severe
case of Catarrh, and took several kinds
Of medicines and used various local APP
plications. but they had no effect what
ever. l was induced to try S. S. s.
(Swift's Specific) and after two months
! was perfectly well and have never
felt any effects Of the disease since.
"B P. MoALLIsTER,

1t is easy to see the importance
of nrOmnt treatment for Catarrh.

The Park and Tree and Police Commits

Works have made up their budgets for
next year, and they have been filed at the
city exchange.
The Park and Tree Commission asks
for S25,520, which is more than was asked
for last year Unless the Council takes a
liberal turn, or at least, a departure from
its last years course, the commission will
not be allowed this amount. Last year

Gil reduced it to $1,000

il. An additional amount is also included
in the budget for improving the drained

reported adversely two years ago.
Books" said Mr.. Ashmore. chat would
do for country schools would not do for
city schools. Those used In schools in
which the term IS five months would not
be suitable for those in which the term is
nine months. Graded schools need differ
ent text books from those taught In other
schools. The system would not work well
and there arc many reasons why il sbould
not be adopted"
Mr.. Ashmore said there would he sure

versal use in the stale. Some might CON

them absurd. Tile commission that world

would be subject to criticism. and there
might be charges of corruption brought
as the book concerns would be willing To
spend a nice sum to supply books for an
entire state.
II is possible that the law might onerate
without reference to the schools of towns

reason in it. II all the counties of The

Tendency Toward Light beverages.

Inquiries made of the Fifth avenue ca
terers who provide for the -Four Hun
dred" confirm the impression that as the
use of heavy wines at dinners is being
abandoned. burgundies, ports and nader
as formerly obligatory, are being pushed
aside. Rhine wines, clarets and cham
payne are principally used. but Of these
champagne Is the favorite, being some
times served through all the courses.
1t is also a subject OF remark that all
dinners of any consequence include Apol-
lnaris water. This is, Of course, due to
its excellence, as 1t is recognized that the
menus Of the notable state and social
functions at home and abroad pronounce
Apo.lnaris the beverage of the select
world, and IL is singled out by them as the
table water Of royalty, princes and oui
own sovereign people But what is partic-
ularly interesting is the conclusion that
the prominence given to table water at
banquets is another proof Of the tendency
OF the present day toward an increased
use of light beverages.
