tuiuouely since 1856 and in that time
lias amassed a fortune which gives him
rating ainong the wealthy men of the
nation. . But with wealth there did not
come that tightening of the parse strings
which is generally a marked character
istic of wealthy men.
it is no wonder then that the same of
Charles H. Hackley is known at home
and abioad. His munificence to Muske
gon alone represents an outlay of nearly
half a million. For the past twenty
years he has been a constant sufferer
lrom neuralgia and rheumatism, also
numbness ol the lower limbs, so much
so liiHt it has seriously interfered with
his pleasure iu life. For some time past
liia friends have noticed that he has
seemed to grow young again and to have
recovered the health which he had in
youth.
To a reporter for the Press Mr. Hack
ley explained tbe secret of his transfor
mation. "I have suffered for over 20
years," he said, "with pains in my lower
liinbg so severely that the only relief 1
could get at night was by putting cold
water c in presets on my limbs. I was
bothered more at night than in the day
time. The neuralgic and rheumatic
pains in my limbs, which had been
growing in intensity for years, finally
became chronic I made three trips to
the ilot Springs with only partial re
lief ami then leu back to my original
state. I couldn't sit stiU and my suffer
ings began to make life look very blue
Two Years ago last September I noticed
an account of Dr. Williams' Pick Pills
for l'ale People and what they had done
lor ol tiers, and some cases so nearly re
sembled mine that I was interested, so I
wrote to one who had given a testi-
nion tal, an eminent professor of music
in Canada. The reply I received was
even stronger than the printed testi
monial and it gave me faith in the
medicine. ''
'1 began taking the pills and found
them to be all that the professor had
told me they would be. It was two or
three months before I experienced any
perceptible betterment ot my condition,
Sly disease was of such long standing
that I did not expect speedy recovery
and was thankful even to be relieved. I
prozressed rapidly, however, towards
. recovery and for the last six months
have felt myself a' perfectly well man
have recommended the pills to many
people and am only too glad to assist
others to health tnrough the medium ot
this wonderful medicine. I cannot say
too much for what it has done for me.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all
tne elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
all druggists, or may be had by mail
from Dr.' Williams' Medicine Company,

Bights f Bicycle BIdera.
When the bicycle first made its ap
pearance upon our highways, it was nat
ural, we suppose, for drivers of horses
Who were themselves put to fright and
danger by the fright of their horses to
bear for the time being no good will for
the novel vehicle, but now that horses
jpretty generally have become accustom
ed to the noiseless wheel there would ap
pear to be no longer any reason why
drivers should persecute riders of the
wheel. But there are always a few
cross grained people who never revise
their opinions and never forget their
spite.
A few weeks ago one of these ill bred
. fellows followed a trio of wheelmen rid
ing in the suburbs of Newark, drove
them off tbe road and otherwise mal
treated them, for which he has been ar
rested and held to bail to answer at the
county court And now we notice that
two suits have been brought . in the su
preme court for damages one against a
person who carelessly left some plank in
the roadway opposite his premises,
gainst which A wheelman collided in
the dark and was badly injured, and an
other by a gentleman who while riding
on the streets of Bloomfield was run
down by a vehicle and, seriously injured.
In both these cases damages were laid at
$3,000, and the suits are brought as well
to test the rights of the bicycle rider to
the common use of the highway as to
redress their own private injuries.
. These are said to be the first bicycle
cases ever begun in the supreme court
of our state, and their decision will
probably mark a new era in the history
of this remarkable invention. Mon

Beeent Women Explorers.
Mrs. Peary is not the only woman who
accompanies her husband on dangerous
exploring trips. The wife of the arctic
explorer, Dr. Nansen, is his companion
in all his perilous exploits. She is de
scribed as a "jolly, bright little woman,
with dark hair," who has given up many
luxuries to reside with the doctor at Sy
saker, six miles from Christdania. She
enters with enthusiasm into all the ex
plorer's schemes for the success of each
new expedition. The cabin of the boat
in which they propose to make their next
trip is only 13 feet square and is to be
used as dining room, workroom and
drawing room. . '
Another woman explorer of cold lati

of accompanying her husband a distance
of 230 miles over snow and ice on snow-

They had no guide and a sledge of three
dogs for their luggage and provisions.
At one time it was necessary to cross an
arm of the sea 11 miles wide in a leaky

cross rivers in the interior by means of
trees, but throughout the journey this

Proper Care of the Finger Malls.
The nail uucared for receives very little
more odium in these days than the over-
cared for nail. It is no longer any better
taste to go about with nails glowing with
the red salve of the toilet table than it is to
have cheeks bright with the brightness of
rouge. Neither are nails any longer pol
ished to the brilliancy of isinglass. The
natural gloss Is maintained, but not height
ened.
Manicure sets accordingly are somewhat
simplified and are not bought as sets at
alL Better implements are obtained by
buying them separately. A pair of nail
scissors, a fine jeweler's file, a chamois pad,
an emery board for smoothing tbe under
surface of the nail and a box of nogalins
for healing the soreness caused by loosened
cuticle comprise the necessities.

GUARDING THE GOLD.
HOW MILLIONS ARE SAFELY CARRIED
ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.
The Treasure Vault la the Bold ot tbe
Ocean Oreyhennd and the Leeks and
Barriers Between Its Casks of Cola and
the Enterprising Burglar.
Millions in gold are now crossing the
Atlantic, .and they are crossing tho right
way toward the United States Instead of
toward Europe. The bulk ot the $05,-
000,000 President Cleveland recently se
cured from the Bolmont-Morgan syndicate
will come from Europe, and the proba-
blllttea are that every shining dollar of
this vast sum will make the lung journey
la safety. So many exoollont precautions
aro taken by the transatlantic steamship
companies that robbery Is practically lin-
possible.
Once aboard an ocean greyhound, the
treasure li ante from the designs of the
most ingenious burglar, snd aa there are
no nineteenth century Captain Xluus or
Laflttos the ship Is in no danger ot being
captured by pirates. There is much more
danger from collisions with dereliots, Ice
bergs or other ships than from th loves.
If the Elbe, for example, bad gone to tbs
bottom with $5,000,000 In sold to her
bold, there would have been little hope of
compelling tho "dark, uufathonied caves
of ocean" to surrender the treasure.
The shipment of millions In gold by
steamer Is a very Interesting prooeoding.
When a New York banker desires to send
million or two abroad, his employees
draw the needed sum In paper money,
which Is taken to the subtreasury, the Im
posing structure that stands on the site of
Federal hall, in W all street, where Wash-

ington took the ontb of office as the first
presidont of the United States. The mon
ey Is usually carried in a handbag by one
trusted employee, while another armed
messenger trudges along at his heels ready
to give any presumptlous footpad a warm
reception. If the amount desired la II,
000,000, the messengers In due time re
ceive 100 sacks of gold coin each contain
Ina 110,000. These sacks aro carried to tbe
banker's office, where they are carefully
weighed. The gold is never shipped ac
cording to its face value, as Europe will
only accept the actual weight of gold re
quired to make the sum in question. Gold
coins that are' frequently handled lose
considerable metal by abrasion, and when
mere trifle is worn from 100,000 sold
eagles tbe total amount lost Is by no
means unworthy of attention.
Ten strong wooden barrels that look
like herring casks are then rolled into tbe
office, and Into each of them go ten bags
of gold containing $100,000. The bags
exactly fill the casks, and when tbe beads
are on tbe coins are given little opportU'
nity for moving about and wearing away
their precious Bides. Tbe casks are then
sealed. Insured, loaded Into a wagon and
driven to the steamer guarded by three
or four heavily armed men.
Tbe Insurance policy covers every perl
known to the sea, and In times like tbeso
tbe rate is very low, and the safe passage
of $1,000,000 across the tempestuous At
lantic is guaranteed for but $1,000. De
spite this low figure, however, many bank'
era gave the Insurance money and place it
In a sinking fund of their own. If there
are no losses, this fund soon grows to lm
mense proportions and results In a great
saving. The Rothschilds' sinking fund is
said to be fully ten times larger than any
sum they have afloat at any time.
At the pier the gold Is received by the
steamer s agents and on armed guard,
and a careful description Is made of each
cask delivered. A receipt is given which
states that "five casks said to contain
gold" have been turned over to tbe steam
er's agents. The casks are placed in a can
vas sling and hoisted aboard with a der
rick. Deep down in the hold Is a huge
steel box, with a square door at tbe top
large enough to admit a single man. A
ladder leads to the floor, and tbe opening
is closed by a door resembling the door of
a safe. This door has three different locks,
each of which is opened by a special key,
and tbe three keys are always In the pos
session of as many different men, so that
If the treasure room is to be robbed at least
three men must be in collusion. Tbe
chief officer has one key, the officer of tbe
deck bas another, and the third is in the
possession of tbe csptaln-at-arms.
When the gold Is lowered into the hold,
these three officers go down and open the
treasure vault and see that the casks are
placed in tbe steel cage that is to be their
stateroom during the voyage. Wben tbe
work is done, tbe door Is thrice locked,
and tons-of merchandise are stowed away
In the hold covering the door of tbe treas
ure vault. Tbe money Is thus not only
protected by three different locks control
ed by three different men, but the great
piles of merchandise are an Immovable bar
rier in tbe way of would be-burglars, even
though tbey become possessed of tbe keys
to tbe treasure vault door. This great
barrier also effectually renders futile any
conspiracy for making a big haul that
might be entered into by the three officers
of tbe ship wbo hold the keys.
, If the gold is consigned to France, tbe
casks are placed In a special railroad car
at Havre, the steamship company gets a re
ceipt, and tbe railroad company then does

to tbe American banker's agent in Paris.
Each of the casks weighs 180 pounds and
is not labeled "gold," but bears certain
cabalistic signs tbat are Greek to tbe un
initiated. The gold that is now being Imported at
New York comes in strong rectangular
boxes, eucb of which contains from $46,
000 to $50, 000. The boxes weigh from 125
to 13S pounds apiece and are carried from
tbe steamer by longshoremen, none - of
whom Is allowed to place a box upon his

father was buried in it originally, and
after two years bis body was exhumed

would be a waste of good money and
gave orders tbat it be kept open for her.

In the body of an adult person Uisrs are
about II pounds ot blood.
Ths blood has as Its most important ele
ments, small round corpuscles, red end
white, In proportion of about 800 red to 10
whits ones,
If ths number of rsd corpuscles becomrs
diminished and ths whits ones Increased
ths blood is impure, thin, lacking in lbs
nutrition necessary to sustain tbs health
and nerve strength of the body.
Thsn That Tired Feeling, Norvousnrss,
Scmruls, Salt Ittieum. or others of ths long
train or ills, according to tbs tenieranisiit
and disposition, attack ths victim.
The only perruattant remedy is found In

puscles, enriching them and Incissslng
their number. It thus restores ths vital
fluid to healthy condition, expels sll Im
