From the Chicago Chronicle

Since 1892 there has been no parallel in
the number and cost Of new buildings
erected in Chicago within a single season
to tho building record of the present year
taken out for the construction of over
4,700 building improvements. involving an
expenditure Of more than $27 coo 900. This
was an increase over the corresponding pe-
riod year ago of about $3.50 buildings
and an increase in expenditure Of over S16,-
O00, 600 This means that building construc-
tion in Chicago during the first nine months
OF the present year has increased more
than 100 per cent as to the number Of i'm
provements and more than $50 per cent as
TO the cost outlay.

Gold Dust Talks
(Continued,)

Dear Madam. ..................
Gill in your name if you don't
use GOLD DUSD.
A book of GOLD DUST Testi-
monials, with as many pages in IL
as are contained in Webster's Die
tionary, wouldn't tell you half as
much about the merits of GOLD
DUST as one FIVE cent package
would.
Seeing is believing-indeed, with
this housework help.
A pinch" of it in the dishwater
will work wonders; another pinch
in the wash boiler will work more
wonders; pinch" in the bucket
of scrub-water will clean the kitchen
floor, or the oil cloth, with magi-
cal quickness and there are still
many "pinches" left for other things
that catch dirt and hold it.
(The four-pound package is much
the cheapes0.
THE OBJECT OF THESE
TALKS IS TO INDUCE YOU
TO BUY GOLD DUST AND Be
GIN USING IT.
They are not SermonS|ather
suggestions-for far be it from us
to preach to you; even though we
have SO good a text as House
work is hard work without GOLD
DUST" to preach from.
But we do hope that they may so
excite your curiosity that you will
try GOLD DUST, just for Gu
riosity's sake-if for nothing else
and thus prove TO YOUR OWN
SATISFACTION that this same
GOLD DUST will do all and more
than we claim for it.

Result of Exposure.
1.-The results Of known exposure 10 lepro-
sy are interesting and show an uncertain
ty to the chances Of individual infec-
tion which to my mind make this dis
ease one Of the most difficult to operate
against For instance. / saw one leper at
the settlement, a white man. whose face
was already markedly infiltrated who
claims to have received his infection from
hoe which he took for moment from
the hands of a native who was cleaning
up his yard, which man he saw at once
was a leper. He was a carpenter by trade
and always had certain number of abra-
sions on his hands. He developed leprosy
shortly after this occurrence On the other
hand there is said to be man on the
Island of Maui who lived fifteen years with
his leper wife and had fourteen children
by her. neither he nor the children ever de-
veloping leprosy Women are said to be
less liable to the disease, there being many
cases of women having two or three hus-
bands and these latter, although previous
ly clean, falling victims to leprosy: the
women remaining clean until after the
menopause, when the disease supposed by
some to have been in the meanwhile DOR
mant, showed itself
las an example of the length of time
which a person may spend In intimate
contact with leprosy without acquiring
It, the history of the leper martyr, Father
Damien, is very interesting.
ratner Dd1niens oeieidn, Oh good
physique, age thirty-four years, arrived at
the settlement in 1873. He was perfectly
well until 1884. when pains in the left foot
were complained Of. Believing 1t to be only
rheumatism, he consulted DR.. Aiming, who
diagnosed 1t at once as leprosy. 1t was six
months afterward before the disease be-
came manifest In the latter part of 1855
a tubercle appeared on the lobe Of the ear
and subsequently the infltration of the
forehead and cheeks began together with
the loss Of the eyebrows. Thus the clinical
picture was complete. I was informed by
Mr.. Reynolds. the superintendent, that the
disease shows much slower advance in
those persons who perform regular manual
labor or else take regular exercise. In this
It shows slight analogy to tuberculosis
The varieties Of leprosy. tubercuiar and
anaesthetic are said to exist at the settle
ment in about equal number.
