A Sensational Case.

Aston, Mich, May th-Houghton
County has never witnessed more strik-
ing medical case than that of Mr.. James
Culet OF this place.
Mr.. Culet had spent small fortune with
the best physicians in the county and in
addition to this he has tried every medicine
he could hear of.
He had very bad case of rheumatism
and Kidney Trouble, from which he had
suffered for twenty years. Nothing he
could get seemed to do him any good, and
he was gradually growing worse.
He has no Rheumatism now and explains
it thus:
Zone day happened to see an advertise
ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills and decided to
try them.
Il made up my mind to give them good
fair trial, as my case was very bad one
and was of over twenty years standing.
Il used altogether AZ boxes and l can
truthfully say that they have driven ont
every trace of the Rheumatism.
Il feel like new man, and i can and dc
most heartily recommend Dodd's Kidney
Pills for Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble. =

There is no city IN the world in
which so large proportion of the
residents have had wide and varied
experience in travel and observation as
Salt Lake City. The explanation of
this lies in the fact that larg. pro-
portion of the young men in the Nor
mon church are sent TO foreign coun-
tries, where. after learning the lam
guage, they preach as missionaries.
These return with cosmopolitan ex-
periences. broad outlook and greatly
augmented knowledge.

A FALSE ALARM.
Singular Source of a Startling RumoE
of the Destruction of
New York.

From Mexico City there comes in pri-
vate letter this story Of how the rumor be-
came current there in April of the destruc-
ton of New York, reports the Times:
"On the afternoon of the Sd inst. there
was a rumor here Of a terrible earthquake
and cyclone in New York Every body
talked about it, and each one had worse
tale to tell; half New York was destroyed,
with 100000 people. Think Of my
anxiety! l was afraid to telegraph. At
last made up my mind to do so, but when
] reached the cable office they showed me a
telegram just received in reply to an in
quiry, which read: Not word Of truth in
It, / was greatly relieved. 1t seems that
two Spaniards who live here and who had
been on a>visit to Europe returned to New
York that day. They are known among
their friends here as Earthquake and 'Cy-
clone and are besides great eaters. One
of their friends in New York telegraphed
TO a friend here:
" Earthquake and Cyclone arrived; have
swallowed up half New York
This was the cause Of the whole thing. "

What magic flutes are these that make
Sweet melody at dawn,
And stir the dewy leaves to shake
Their silver on the lawn?
What miracle of music wrought
In Swallowed groves is this?

Songs apotheosisi
The dreaming lilies lift their heads
To listen and grow wise;
The fragrant roses from their beds
In sudden beauty rise:
Enraptured. on the eastern hill,
A moment, halts the sun;
Day breaks; and all again is still

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the Gland of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women
are so because they are suffering from
some form of female disease. BY far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is SO common, so prevalent,
that they accept itas almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way ofre-
covery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred are nothing
but catarrl.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated.

A NEW SHORTHAND CHARACTER.

The invention of the method of writ
ing by signs, called shorthand, has
served the grand and useful purpose
for which it was intended. The STAN
pede made by business men to crowd
the greatest amount of work into the
smallest space time, thereby realiz-
ing greater attainments, has given
birth to time-saving devices of many
kinds, but not the least of these is the
shorthand alphabet. There are many
different systems but even those which
were supposed to have been perfect a
few years ago are being improved and
characters are changed to include more
in their meaning. The letter d has
been adopted recently by many steno-
graphers to signify anything perfect.
1t has been found that the letter. d
stands for Douglas-the inventor of the
Douglas Patent Closet, guaranteed
against leakage and the annoyance OF
running water. Bath, the plumber, in

Comment on Bank Statement.

New York, November 28.-The New
York Financler says this week:
The most striking feature OF the Off
cial statement of the New YORK Assoc
ciated banks last week and that which
chiefly attracted attention, was the i'm
portant increase of So $50 in surplus
resc we. This resulted from the gain or
s7es 500 in cash and the reduction or
SIS. rs 400 in deposits through which the
reserve requirements were diminished by
6 .445. $50. which sum- added to the gam
IN cash, made the above noted increase
OF S2.2i3,e5e in surplus reserve TO So
ICE. 200 Calculated upon the oasis or
deposits, less those of $50 300 700 Of pub
lie funds the surplus is Sl5 .o2I, oI2
There was decrease Of So, 394, 800 IN
loans, which, it may be noted, leaves this
item only SO, Ie7 600 above the minimum
Of the year. Specie, legal tenders and
deposits are at the lowest of the year.
The reduction in loans last week was
not unexpected, for there was more or
less contraction as the result of stock
market liquidation. and also because OF
a desire by some of the banks to aug
ment their percentages of reserve to de-
posts. The gain in cash was smaller by
S 80 900 than that which was estimated
upon the basis of the traceable move
nlerts of money during the week. This
is probably accounted for by the fact that
