A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors : How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scroiula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst ON his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
1t to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles OF Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

Now Get Ready to See Falling Stars
 It is the Year for Them
 It is within the range of possibility that two exceptional displays of celes- tial fireworks will be witnessed this month by those who keep a sharp lookout. November is a famous month for meteor showers, although the ex- hibition is not as brilliant some years as others. In fact, one of the fiery out breaks-that which seems to proceed from the constellation of Leo-comes only once in about B years. The other has a period of about 13 years, but this represents only the maximum ire duency of the meteors from Androme- da. A few are seen shooting from that region of the skies almost every year when the earth, in it's sweep through space, crosses the orbit of that partic- ular swarm.
 On November P, 1S33 for several hours there was a perfect rain of me teors. Something like a quarter of a million were observed at Boston. They all started from about the same quar- ter, and their paths radiated in all di- rections. Part of them disappeared af- ter a short flight, and a part of them left longer trails of glory. The specta- cle was one of a lifetime. The same event was duplicated in 1866. And re-

THn ACr OF AN OysTrp

He who wishes may find out the eX- act age of an oyster, though he has not the telltale evidence in teeth The lines in the groove of the hinge of the shell tell the whole story, each line repre- senting year. An oyster is of age at four years; that is, he is old enough to vote, take care of family, and go to market. Going to market is a disas- trous undertaking, for a four-year- old oyster is particularly palatable. By this it must not be supposed that after an oyster has passed the four layer peri cd and has five, six, or even ten wrin- kles on his shell he is a back number Indeed there are records of oysters be- ing eaten just after celebrating their thirtieth birthday, and in most cases they formed a delicious meal, Thirty is an usual age for an oyster to attain, because few are given an opportunity to live so long. If left to enjoy life in his own way. It is quite probable that the oyster would become an octogenar- ian or even centenarlan.
 Captain Cochrane on his past trip to Fulton Market brought in an oyster found on his beds that is believed to be at least thirty-five years old.-The Fishing Gazette

The stock Market.


 New York Nov. 15.-The premonitorv symptoms of reaction which were not ed yesterday in the stock market and even more prominently in the bond market. found their justification to- day. There were periods of resistance to the decline and individual stocks in which the resistance was successful But the reaction gained in force as the day progressed and the closing was de- cidedly heavy in tone and at the low point, net declines being the rule and reaching as much as point in few stocks.
 The specialties were active all day, and the movements in them were ex- ceedlngly various and influenced by in- dividual and conflicting causes. The market for railroad stocks showed a heavy tone from the opening, especial ly Tn the internationals, which had the burden of selling for foreign account to carry. The grangers and Pacifics also encountered obstacles to an ad- vance. The Atchison issues continued to be strong rallying point for the bull faction, the preferred stocks rising to 43B. Further effort was made to sustain the railroad list by bidding up prices of the low-priced stocks, espec- tally those in the southwest. The mystery surrounding the pending dis position of the Chicago and Alton also imparted strength to different railroad stocks on rumors of connection with that transaction. Thus Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf, the Lake Erie and Western stocks and Chicago, Indianap- oils and Louisville preferred rose at times from 1 to points. There were unexplained advances of 2ss in South ern Pacific and of g full points ill Chi cago and Northwestern preferred. In the specialties there was prevailing heaviness on one hand in Sugar Man haitian. Federal Steel and Peoples Gas while on the other hand Tobacco, Met .ropolitan Street Railway and the paper stocks showed marked strength Man. hattans weakness was attributable to q study of the quarterly statement and the balance sheet. The Feneral fore as deliverable when issued a transaction which did not call for cash The certificates are now being issued and the resulting requirement. for funds is assigned as the reason for the weak ness of these stocks.
