A dispatch from Orange, N. j.. last night

founces or frills adorned and clothed this
baby. In fact, she had been born only
few moments before she was discovered In
her cold cradle.
A servant girl in the United States Hotel,
near the Orange station, heard the baby
crying and told Mrs. Otto Kutzemayer, the
hotel proprietor's wife.
Dr. G. Herbert Richards wrapped the
baby In cotton Ike dollhouse peach and
took her to the Memorial Hospital, where,
at last reports, she was doing very well.
The baby's mother was on the Easton ex-
press when it reached Hoboken. She was
unconscious. When she was revived she
said she was Mary Smith, nineteen years
old, of Stanhope, n. j.. She said the baby s
father, lately employed at Greenwood Lake
had deserted her. Then the mother, woe
entirely possessing her, exclaimed weakly:
Where's my baby? I want her"
The mother was taken to st. Mary'S Hos
uital Hoboken, and assured that her child
will be given to her as soon as It is safe to
remove her from The hospital
History records one birth more remark
able so far as concerns the circumstances
that a baby was born at ball given by
King Charles III at Whitehall Palace, and
that the mother, with natural heSftancy,
never claimed the baby.

cities physicians are prescribing
Paw-Paw confidently because they
know its origin, and have given it
many tests in the form that | offer
it. They know that it will cure Dys-
pepsia, Indigestion and all stomach
irregularities arising therefrom.
They know that it is sedative as
well as tonic, and that it will cure
nervousness and sleeplessness. They
know that it will purify the blood,
cleanse and heal the digestive tract,
and the walls of the stomach, and
so rid patients from other diseases
arising from those conditions. There
IS every reason why doctors should
regularly prescribe Munyon's Paw
Paw. There is not one single rea-
son-unless it be prejudice-why
they should not-MUNYON.
We have already given the names
of physicians in this city who are
prescribing Munyon's Paw-Paw
regularly. We take pleasure now
IN presenting the name of an emf
nent doctor at the national capital,
who has been cured by Paw-Paw,
and who is regularly prescribing it
for his patients.

Could anything be more convirlc-
ing than this? Why, it is almost
startling, when one thinks how long
the possibilities of Paw-Paw have
remained undeveloped and known
only to the world of medical science
and the chemist. 1t remained
for Munyon to seize upon the bene-
fits which nature in her benefcence
had provided and through proper
and scientific combination of Paw
Paw with other harmonious medi-
Garments give to the people an alb
solute specific for Dyspepsia, Indi-
gestion and all other stomach all
ments and by providing a natural
nerve food and vitalizer make ner-
vous diseases and sleeplessness

The Editors Dilemma.

Probably every newspaper editor l.
frequently confronted with some rumor
stated as a fact, and asked to publish
it, muses. the WestbOrO ChronOtype.
Rumors are not the kind of material
that reliable newspapers can tie to,
and when they chance to do it they
are liable to do great injustice. There
is nothing so valuable to newspaper
man as good Judgment of the matter
that goes into his columns; and do the
best he may he is sometimes misled
into doing injustice. The conscien-
tiOus editor desires to publish facts
and facts only. He never wishes to
shield crime In any form from eX-
DOsure. but he does desire, above every
ching else, to be charitable in his deal
iI.gs with the public, and give the bet-
ter side of life the preference rather
than the opposite. Human nature Is
weak, and no or = free from faults
and that should read to charity in our
feelings toward our fellow men.

coRNs AND THEIR TREATMENT.
Represent a Defeat of Natures Well Meant
Efforts to Prevent Trouble.


a corn is an c-ergrowth of the
horny layer of some portion of the skin
of the foot. induced by friction or I'M

1t is situated generally on prominent
portion of one of the toes, more COM
monty the little toe. but may be on the

1t begins by an increase in size of the
papillae in the deeper part of the skin.
and this induces an increase in the pre-
duction of the scarf-skin. or horny lay

dinately thick, and, the pressure from
the shoe continuing. is pushed back
against the enlarged papillae, causing
their final atrOphy.
This formation of corn affords 4 GU

A Novelty In Railroad Education.

| The novel project of running a pa
latisl special train from Chicago to
New Orleans and return, q distance of
nearly 90. 900 miles, for the sole bene
fit of competitors was successfully car
ried out by the officials of the Illinois
Central Railroad last week. Nearly
100 general passenger agents and
members of their families were tie
guests of the Illinois Central during
the trip, everything, including musi-
cal entertainments In the observation
car, being provided by the company.
Had anyone undertaken to purchase
the service and entertainment provid-
ed the cost could not have been far
from 81 900. The train was, so to
speak, an edition de luxe, the Pullman
Company certifying that the new cars
furnished were the finest ever manu-
featured by them, and the engineers
and train crew were the most expert
in the employ Of the railroad company.
The novelty of the affair consists
largely in the fact that few years ago
railroad companies stroye to keep
from competitors accurate knowl-
edge of conditions along their lines
of railroad. Excluding the COM
plimentary feature, the main purpose
of the Illinois Central expedition was
to educate competing lines regarding
the unexcelled transportation facilities
possessed by that company, and the
possibilities which lie in the develop
ment Of the south. Although progress
sive men, the general passenger
agents who were on the trip were
amazed to learn that the Illinois Cen
trail now practically has double track
system all the way between Chicago
and New Orleans aud a rock ballasted
roadbed with few grades and curves.
which is capable of accommodating an
enormous volume of traffic. They
were also surprised at the phenOme-
nal commercial and industrial awaken
ing which the south is experiencing,
and they will spread the news regard
ing both facts for months to come.
In doing this they will be advertis-
ing the south most effectively and pro-
noting travel there from every quar-
ter of the country. Naturally the
Illinois Central will get the benefit of
this, for; in short, 1t has recruited q

An Imprisoned Lobster.

A strange freak was found in Vine.
yard Haven harbor this summer by a
young woman who was bathing. She
saw bottle on the bottom and lived
for it. When it was brought to the
surface it was found to contain a live
lobster far too large to have crawled
through the neck of the bottle. 1t is
supposed that it got into the trap
when it was little fellow, and was
unable to find its way out, but how Il
got food enough to grow on is a mys
