Gordon a Stranger to Fear.

OF Gen. Gordon, who died at Khar-
tum, Lord Wolseley says: "A deeply
religious man in whom danger appar-
emily excited neither pleasure nor re-
,pugnance, he seemed only to distin-
guish between a safe position or an
extremely perilous one as he would
notice any slight change in the wealth
er of fine sunny day. He knew how
infectious courage was and how much
any exhibition of contempt for per-
sonal danger braced the nerves and
steadied the heads of those less gifted
with masculine daring than he was.
He was man in hundred. During a
hull in our siege operations one sailor
was overheard saying to another in
the battery: L haven't seen old Cor
don here lately No. answered his
shipmate, the fire amt hot enough for
that old beggar just now. 7"

FRAUDS IN A BALE OF HAY.
Frauds in watch Gases.

According to an article in the Cincin-

was recently found in that city sccretcd
IN a bale of nay of eighty pounds.
This is not as bad as finding lump OF
lead of nearly one-haif the weight of the
solid gold watch case secreted in the cen
ire of the case
God watch cases are sod by weight, and
no one can see where this lead ia secrcted
until the springs OF the case arc taken out
and the lead will he found secretcd behind
them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest, but furnish the means
to the dishonest to rob the pubic. 1t is
not pleasant for anyone to lind that he
has lugged a lump Of lead in his watch
case.
Another trick of the makers Of Spurious
solid gold watch cases is to stamp the case
'fU. S. Assay" The United States does
not stamp any article made out of gold and
silver except coin, and the fakir, by using
lieve that the Government had something
to do with the stamping or guaranteeing
the fineness of watch cases.
Another trick OF the watch fakir is to
advertise watch described as a solid gold
Tiled watch with twenty or twenty-five
year guarantee. These watches are gener-
ally sent G. o. d.. and If I he purchaser has
paid for the watch he finds that the com
pany which guaranteed the watch to wear
Is not in existence.

of Canton, Ohio, who are constantly ex-
posing these frauds will furnish the names

tienable business.

Vagaries That Explain the Lack of a
Scandinavian Restaurant in Town.
The Scandinavian population of the
city of New York, already consider
able, is being added to largely through
immigration. but there is not a not
able Swedish or Danish restaurant in
town. The reason for this, when every
nationality is represented in the cos
mopolitan life of New York. is found
not in theory but a condition.
What is it? 1t is what may be
called a gastronomic lottery-the Gus.

tn HE season of catching cod is upon us.
i The cough and the sneeze and nasal
twang are to be heard on every hand. The
origin of chronic catarrh, the most com
mon and d. eadful of diseases, is cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gen
orally begins. A person catches cold, which
hangs on longer than usual. The cold
generally starts in the head and throat.
Then follows sensitiveness OF the air pas
sages which incline one to catch cold very
easily. At last the person has cold all
the while seemingly, more or less discharge
from the nose, hawking. splitting. frequent
clearing of the throat, ,nostrils stopped up,
full feeling in the head ami sore, infamed
throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. 4 hottie of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have heen cured Of
chronic catarrh by single bottle of Pc
rina. yet. as a rule, when the catarrh be-
comes thoroughly fixed. more than one bot
tie is necessary to complete a cure. Pc
runa has cured cases nnumerable of ca
tarrh of twenty years standing. 1t is the
best, ii not the only internal remedy for
chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every pc son subject to catching cod
should take PeruDa at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at his
season of the year and thus prevent what
is almost certain to end in chronic cataTrh.

The recent advance in the price OF
