The Way Philip D. Armour Aided Or.
Henry M. Field.
When DR.. L. W. GunsauIus was
in the pastorate of Plymouth
church, Chicago, Philip d. Armour
was his most eminent parishioner
Mr.. Armour had long admired the
New York evangelist and was dis
tressed when he heard that the de-
cline of the journal threatened to
leave its editor and owner, DR. Hem
ny M. Field, in penury in his old
age.
The packer asked DR.. Gunsaulas
to invite the editor to Chicago. and
then he himself invited them both
to dinner in his home At the table
Mr.. Armour turned the converse
ton almost Immediately to the cd
itors brother, already long dcccas-
ed, Mr.. Cyrus w. Field, inventor
of the ocean telegraph Said Mr.
Armour:
81 am sorry that in your brothers
lifetime | did not recognize more
clearly my debt to him. Now every
day | sit in my office and commum-
cate with my agents all over the
world, and my business multiplies
wonderfully just because | can keep
in touch with markets for my prod
ucts in every country. And | owe
it all to your brother. If it hadn't
been for his faith in the ocean cable
| could never have built up such
trade. | keep wishing | had done
something while he was living to
show him that | appreciated his
achievement"
The packing king kept up the
same strain of conversation through
most Of the meal. Toward the last
q plate set down before the editor
contained among the viands Of the
course small slip Of folded paper.
DR.. Field opened it doubtfully and
found written within.
Good for $4,000, payable at the
office Of the Armour Packing com
pany to the brother of Cyrus W.
Field
The venerable editor was over
whelmed with confusion and scarce
y was able to express his feelings,
But, Of course, as his host had cal
culated, he could not decline gift
given in his brothers memory.-Jn-
terror.

Prof. II. A. Howell, Of Havana, Cuba,
Recommends Chamberlain
Cough Remedy.

"As long ago as can remember my
mother was faithful user and friend
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but
never in my life have / realized its true
value until now" writes Professor H A
Howell, of Howell's American School,
Havana, Cuba. "On the night of Feb
ruary Sd our baby was taken sick with
a very severe cold, the next day was
worse and the following night his con-
dition was desperate. He could not lie
down and it was necessary to have him
in the arms every moment. Even then
his breathing was difficult. l did not
think he would live until morning. At
last 1 thought of my mothers remedy,
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which
we gave, and it afforded prompt relief,
and now, three days later, ne has fully
recovered. Under the circumstances,
l would not hesitate moment in say
ing that Chamberlain Cough Remedy
and that only, saved the life of our dear
little boy" For sale by U M Crosby &

E Si!inq a Ham,

a great many women do not know
how property to boil ham. Many
Of them put it in pot Of water and
let it cook, fast or slow, rs the fire
may allow, until they think it Is
done Try this way for change
and see if the little trouble involved
is rot worth while. Boiled ham to
be at its best requires very slow
cooking Pat the ham in a kettle,
cover 1t with cold water and let it
soak foar hours Take it out, wash
It thoroughly, ~crape and clean off
the .afi edges Of the skin, put back
p the kctyie, cover with cold water
and ~ II simmer until the meat is
t21aer when tried with fork. A
ten pound ham would require about
tive hours cooking in this way. Re-
mo1e the ham from the fire and let
It stand in the water for an hour,
then take from the water and re-
move the outside skin. Sprinkle
the ham with granulated sugar and
cracker crumbs, a dash Of paprika
and insert two or three whole cloves.
Put in a slow oven and bake for an
hour.-Chicago News
