Curious vienna LAW.

They have curious laws in Vienna
and enforce them too. Recently Marie
Friedl and Felix Kopstein. aged 10 and
Is years respectively. were walking
along a street in the Austrian capital
when they came across an old woman
staggering along under the weight of
heavy package. Moved by pity, they
offered to carry it for the old woman, a
proposition to which she readily ac-
ceded. The kind hearted children had
not gone far before they were arrested
by n policeman for carrying parcels
without n license. The children were
taken to n police station, where the Of
ficer i'm charge lectured them upon the
enormity of their offense. They were
kept under arrest for six hours and
then released with n warning.
1t seems that there is a corps of
messengers" in Vienna to which "A
municipal statute grants the exclusive
right of carrying" inside the city. The
bay and girl had violated the law by
carrying the old woman's burden. and

"Aot DouEhmo' GoLe 1heAoeos
I'm the presidential campaign OF 1856
the Democrats in the west made an ef-
fective point by contrasting Mr.. Buch-
anan's long public career as a senator,
secretary of state and minister TO Eng
land with General Fremont's limited
experience, consisting of service of 81
days In the United States senate.
In the great campaign of 1860 they
tried the same tactics, which had prov
ed so successful, to disparage Mr.. Lin
coin. He had served but single term
I'm congress. while Senator Douglas had
for many years enjoyed a national rep
utation.
This point was urged in heated dis
cussion overheard between an ardent
supporter of Senator Douglas and a
German voter who favored Mr.. Lin
coin. The former finally thought TO
overwhelm his opponent by saying:
who is this Lincoln, anyhow! No
body ever heard of him until Senator
Douglas brought him into notice by
holding joint debates with him. Sena-
tor Douglas. on the other hand, is a
great statesman. Why, he has had his
eye on the presidential chair for the
last ten years"
''Vot is dot you say?" was the reply.
You say Meester DooGlas have had his
eye on the president chair for the last
ten years."
"Yes; that is Just what said"

cations of associate diseases. In case

has developed into Prostate, Bladder
or Kidney affections, the injured or

eases arising from the faint are en-
tirely and permanently eliminated
from the system. If it is impotency.
the many distressing symptoms fol-
lowing in its train and indicating pre-
mature decline of the so called physi-
cal, mental, sexual powers are totally
removed and rapidly replaced by the
youthful energy of robust manhood.
Hence all resulting ills and reflex
complications which may be properly
termed associate diseases and which
in fact are often more serious than
the original ailments that give rise to
them-al, 1 say, disappear COM
pletely and forever with the cure of
the main malady.
