DEATH IN A NEW eUisE.
Scheme That Landed a Hungarian
Judge In Town Jail.

In a little village on the Hungarian
frontier, not far from Presburg, a
peasant woman recently received 400
kronen ($S5) from her husband In
America.
She promptly deposited It in the
FOCAL branch Of the postofice savings
bank, and then the next day went to
withdraw the whole amount.
The bank official was somewhat sur.
prised, and asked for an explanation,
when she said that Death had ar
peared to her during the night and
threatened to take her away with him
unless she had the 400 crowns ready
for him the next night.
The gendarmes were communicated
with, and when Death" made his
promised appearance he was found 10
be very much alive, In the person OF
the local Judge.
The woman's money is still in the
bank, and the Judge is In jail.--Pall

Is of pink straw covered with flowers
of various shades Of pink and mauve.
Amongst many embroideries worthy
of notice are those which show thick
gold and silver tinsel combined with
floss silk designs interspersed with
clous made of iridescent kid. The like
mounted on gray or blue net lined
with silver tissue is amongst the luxu-
ries of the rich, and may certainly be
quoted as an example of what modern
handiwork can do in alliance with
modern prodigality.
The other sketch illustrates the
popular short-waisted bodice, and this
dress is of Shantung silk in chestnut
brown with the embroidery in oriental
colors, the narrow vest being traced
with gold and the yoke and sleeves of
fine net. The hat is of brown chip
with a single crimson rose concealing
the stem of a shaded brown ostrich
feather of superior detail.
The Shantung silks are really a
great success, but they should be

Princeton college, to the mental.phi-

men," continued the doctor, as he
touched his head with his forefinger,
"can you tell me what an impression
is?"
No answer.
What; no one knows? No one can

down the class.

pert, of whatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one ofthem was ofun-

years experience in the treatment OF
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT

SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat

bntnotleast, brings to the home the vast
and varied experience Of DR.. Hartman,
tnthe use o. catarrh remedies, and in the
treatment Of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is a dis
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their Ease is one Of chronic
catarrh. It may be ofthe nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma.
ture of the disease. The only trouble
Is the remedy. This doctor has triedto
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
DR.. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can besupplied direct.
