TWO GREAT REMEDIES.
Light and DnrIxness-Find Out which
Suits Your Case.
From The Phlladelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
All who ever suffered from a toothache
know TO their sorrow that the pains in
crease as the night grows older. A tooth
ache which during the day interferred but
little with our enjoyment of life is likely
to develop during the hours of darkness
into veritable terror, that makes us
curse the accident of our birth. It Is the
same with an earache asthmailc troubles.
etc Asthma is most likely to develop into
smothering nightmare between the
hours of 10 p. m. and a. m.
At the Vienna University DR. Gold
schneider has told the reason In a paper
read before his class. He thinks the dark
ness prevailing In the average bed room is
at fault. Light, he says, plays a greater
part in the pathology of aches than most
people ina CINE. Those are, properly speak
ing the healthiest members of the human
family who live in sunht, well-aired
rooms, and who move about in the sun as
much as practicable.
IL in daytime we are stricken with pain
our sufferings are certainly less relatively
speaking, than they would be II the NAL
ady had seized us at night, for light and
sunshine sooth our feelings and do not
allow us to abandon ourselves to the feel
ing of pain.
When night comes the painful sensations
increase; they are bearable as long as we
are In the gas or lamDlight, but become
intense the moment we stretch out in bed.
enveloped by stiffness and darkness. A
lessening Of the pain is observable only
after sunrise.
what does It mean?-' asks the doctor.
THAT darkness and stiffness are not con-
ducive to the comfort of sick people There
fore, say, II you have pains in the even
ing, do not rob yourself of the soothing
effects of lamp. In ninety-nine out of 1O0
cases the presence Of a light in the sick
room aleviates pain.
For the same reasons do not let your
children sleep in the dark If they prefer a
light The denial Of night light has made
many q child al with heart disease. II
children refuse to sleep In the dark 1t may
be assumed that there is some physical
or mental reason for 1t which we ought to
Tes-ect.
From the above rules. nervous people
are exempt. Some of them absolutely re-
fuse to find rest until all is quiet and dark
about them. / have found that In cases of
megrim, a neuralgia pain in one side of
the head nothing would do but TO place
the patient In an absolutely dark and still
room, If possible at the top Of the house.
/ advise that people suffering from sick
headache should interrupt their days work
and take themselves for quarter of an
hour to darkened room proof against
noises. Nature has put two great remedies
in our hands-light and darkness. Suffer-
ers should find out for themselves which
best agrees with them

Rennes. August 10 Captain
Cuignet, aide-de-camp at the war

in the Dreyfus case today. Capt
Cnignet was the man who discov-
cred the Henry forgery. He was
thought to be in favor of Dreyfus
before court of cessation, and there
was no thought that he would at
tempt to incriminate Dreyfus.
Notwithstanding this he began
with long speech denouncing
Dreyfus which lasted until the ac-
cused raised his hand in protest
Cuignet then began his testimony.
He claimed there were bushels of
documents incriminating Dreyfus,
and also Herr Schneider. "A Prus-
sian naval attache from Berlin who
repudiated Dreyfus. Cuignet
claims that this reputation was
forced from Schneider.

Rose Hill Cemetery.
By 10. nj. HARRIS.


In the first building of Mo. Valley
lowe, the question of locating q public
cemetery had not engaged the atten-
ton of the people, and the few burisls
that were made were on the elevation
just northwest of the town, but no
public ground had been secured, and
the graves made on the land nam
ed were only by permission of the lot
and land company, but it soon became
evinent that a more permanent loca-
ton should be selected, and on the 9th
day of October 1871, the following per-
sons formed company and was regu-
larly incorporated in the name of "The
Rose Hill Cemetery Association" viz;
Thomas F. Brannan; J. Il. Zuver; L.
d. Mckinley; W. A. Ellis; M. Olmstead

Results of Mail Weighing.

Nonpareii: While definite and exact
figures have not yet been given out on
the results of the recent government
mail weighing, those who kept tab on
1t state that when the figures are tab.
ulated they will show an enormous in.
crease over the weighing four years
ago-at least double the totals for that
time aside from the natural in.
crease in business" said local rail-
road official, in speaking of this mat
ter, "there is an especially large amount
of mail matter of all kinds Just now
because of the enormous revival In
business. With the prosperity wave
there has come flooding of the mails
that is remarkable in ITSELF"
To the officials of the Burlington the
results of the mail weighing has
brought new assurance that they will
be permitted to retain the big trans
continental mail contract, notwith-
standing the efforts of the Northwest
ern to capture it. Said an official of
that road recently: awhile the govern
ment hasn't fixed up Its new contracts
yet, we feel quite sure that We will
keep the big contract. The weighing
gives us assurance of this. During all
of the'weighing we hauled practically
all of the big through mails from Chi.
cago to the transfer as usual and other
roads got very little of it. Now II the
government was going to take the con-
tract away from US it would have sent
big part of this mail over other roads
in order to determine the pay they
should receive II the contract is
taken away from US now, 1t will make
little difference to us, because the re-
cent. weighing determines what our
pay will be for the next four years,
anyway"
This official predicts that the North
western will take off its fast mail train
from Chicago. ut was put on" he
stated, ito make showing for the big
mail contract and l believe for that
alone. If they fail to get it. and they
surely will, there will be little occasion
for that train as far as the business of
the road is concerned. Without spe-
cial mail contracts the tram must be q
constant expense instead of Q source of
revenue, and for this reason the train
] will DO taken off,"
