The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer one
hundred dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials.

why They Were Selected.

1t has been recorded that General
Henry Knox, in 1888. was the great
est of IL distinguished officers of the
army, weighing go pounds. Noah
Brooks, in Lis book entitled Henry
Knox" gives the following incident re-
lating to the generals full habit:
With n Captain Sargent, he was Sc
lected to present the hard case of the
starving and naked men at Valley
Forge to the attention of a committee
of congress. One of the congressman,
wishing to show his wit and sarcasm,
said that he had never seen a fatter
man than General Knox nor a better
dressed man than his associate.
Knox managed to keep his temper
and remained silent, but his subor-
dinate retorted. THE corps, out of re-
spect to congress and themselves, have
sent as their representatives the only
man who had an ounce of superfluous
flesh on his body and the only other
man who possessed a complete suit of
clothes"

THE CAFES IN VIENNA.
They Are n Second Home For the
Natives of the City.

Every one goes to them-men, women.
priests and children. The cafe is the CEN
ter of social life. 1t is there that the
policy Of the government is discussed.
the latest play criticised and business
transacted. At 4 o'clock in the after
noon it is with difficulty that seat can
be had in one of these popular meeting
places, for at that hour every Viennese
partakes of his afternoon coffee, which
fills the place of the Englishman's 3
o'clock tea.
These cafes are regular reading rooms.
Some of them take as many as 500 differ
ent periodicals, and often 10 copies of the
same paper-some popular Austrian or
foreign sheet-are on file. Let foreign
er enter, and the experienced waiter i'm
mediately recognizes his nationality. II
he be an American, a New York daily is
brought to him. if a Frenchman, a Paris
boulevard paper is laid before him, and
so on. If a Russian enters, cigarettes
are at once produced.
Cafes are for the Viennese a second
home, and they all have two kinds of eli
ents-the stammgaste, or habitues, and
the laufende, or transients. The habi-
tues, commonly called wirthaus-bruder
(cafe brothers, have tables reserved for
them, and woe betide the man who ven
lures to take possession of this sacred
property There are many Viennese who
for the past 80 or 40 years have sat at
the same table, in the same corner, day
after day, drinking the same brew Of
beer or brand of wine and smoking the
same sort of tobacco in the same old
pipes. A stammgast generally spends
from three to four hours every day at his
cafe, the natural result being a great loss
of time and money. But the Viennese
are not misery. They live up to the
German proverb which seems to have
been written ON purpose for them, lie
ben und leben lassen" C'Live and let
live').-International Magazine.

Russ House, San Francisco, Has Been
Completely ModerniZed.

Within the past year there has been
a great demand made by those visiting
the city for accommodations that have
a semblance to their home surround
ings. Realizing this want, Colonel j.
S. Young of the Russ House has gone
to an expense of over $4,000 to OBJ
tain the desired result. The first step
taken was to tear down the plaster
ing in every room. Over 1000 loads of
old plastering were carted away before
the work of undermining the house was
completed. From one end of the no.
tel to the other has been repapered
and repainted, while new furnishings
are to be seen on every hand. The
building now contains twenty-one
suites of rooms which have private
bath adjoining and over 800 other
rooms for those who wish for less
pretentious accommodations. The new
plumbing is of the most modern sani-
tary kind, and has been inspected by
the local health authorities, who have
given their endorsement to it, as
being the most complete in the city.
An electric service is now in use
throughout the building, while every
room is supplied with hot and cold
water. The locksmith has visited all
the doors and put on new locks of the
most improved pattern. These locks
| have a set bolt which can only be
opened from the inside.
The Russ House is famous for the
good table it sets. In fact, many of the
business men who have offices in the
! insurance district are to be seen at
the noon hour in the dining-room.
visit to the kitchen shows that none
of the Oriental races are employed
and mere is a cleanliness that speaks
we'll for the thoroughness of the man
agement. This part of the hotel is sc
situated that it is by itself, and there
is no chance of the odor of cooking
being found outside it's doors. In fact
the Russ House is one of the most
modern hotels in the city and the
latest to be thoroughly renovated. II

Everything is congenial, and one feels

THE TIP OF THE TONGUE.
1t Is the Most Sensitive Part of the
Human Body.

The tip OF the tongue possesses the
most perfect sense of touch. The finest
hair is felt upon its surface, and even
when fingers fail to ascertain the quail
ties of certain bodies, contact with the
tongue Immediately recognizes them. The
relative sersibility of various parts of the
body is best measured by means of pair
of compasses, the points of which are
tipped with cork.
The tip of the tongue can distinguish
two distinct impressions when the COM
pass points are only half a line, or the
twelfth of an inch, apart, the tip of the
finger when they are one line apart
Other spots vary still more widely; this
distance at the lips is two lines; the tip
Of the nose, three lines; the cheek, five
lines; palm Of the hand, five lines; fore
head, ten lines; back of the hand, IA
lines; chest, 20 lines; back and thigh, 80
lines.
If, however, this experiment is repeat
ed with pair of compasses capable by
slight pressure of pricking, it will be
found that there is no corresponding diff
ference between the parts in their sensi-
bility to pain. On the contrary, in places
where the sense of touch is most keen,
the sense of pain is in the first instance
at least deadened, and the parts most
callous in discriminating the double
touching points are by no means the least
alive to the sensation excited by their
pressure.
The tip of the tongue has so times the
tactile discrimination of the arm, but the
arm is more sensitive to a sharp point
applied with moderate pressure to the
skin than either the tongue or the finger
and is at least as alive to the presence
of very light body, a hair or feather
drawn along the surface.
Curiously enough, the right hand,
which is more sensitive to touch than
the left, is less sensitive to temperature
If the two hands are dipped in two
basins of water at the same temperature,
the left hand will feel the greatest sensa-
ton of heat.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

MOST COSTLY OF DRUGS.
Some Sell 81 Retail For More Than
Their Weight In Gold.


''The price of many drugs used in
medicine is astonishing to those who
are not acquainted with the subject"
remarked Il druggist. There are sew
eral that are worth their weight in
gold about 500 an ounce, while So,
So or So an ounce are quite common
prices in pharmacy. l filed prescrip-
ton the other day that cost $25. But
there is one drug that 1 can recall
which is worth much more than its
weight in gold. That is pseudo physo.
stigmine. l don't think that it has a
popular name. 1t is too rich for that.
In the pharmacists list it is quoted at
81 a grain, or $437.50 an ounce. The
seed from which the drug is made
grows in India and Brazil, as well as
In parts of South Africa. This seed,
tradition says, was once used by ma
tive chiefs as an ordeal. The ordeal
generally resulted in the death of the
man upon whom it was tried and so
was considered as a great truth finder.
The prepared drug is sometimes used
now in prescriptions for the treatment
of heart disease.
another drug which takes the palm
for costliness is, curiOusly enough, the
one which is perhaps the most widely
known by name of them all to the gen.
eral public-namely, musk. It's retail
price at the present moment is about
$50 an ounce. 5000 pound apothecary,
or 215 times the value of pure gold, "a
carats fine. 1t is obtained from the
musk deer, very rare animal, and is
contained 10 follicle, of which there
Is only one in each animal, so that an
ounce of the drug represents approx
mately one of these precious animals.
AS it is largely used for scent, the de-
mand constantly exceeds the supply,
and the price has been steadily ad-
vancing. There is no reason why it
should not go to $3.50 or $500 an ounce
during the next few years, as the musk
deer is gradually vanishing from the
face of the earth."-Kansas City Jour-
nal
