Dr. Robinson is a spirit ualist and medium, and says in commun ing with departed friends, their forms re cently multiplied around him and beck oned him to join them. Commander Brice and Medical Director Woods, U. S. N. have dissuaded him from continuing his fast. It was at first thought that Robinson was beyond recov ery, but he is now improving. He has lived a bachelor existence in great lux ury at Paso Robles. Turn? nrnrrl A well selected text is half of the sermon. Given a good text and a preacher who is hi earnest, and the result is sure to be good. The text of this article is closely connected with the lives and health of its readers. The text is a plain simple state ment that proves itself in the readers own mind without argument. The text is Gocd health is better than great riches." Without health nothing really matters very much. Terrapin and truffles are only irritants to a dyspeptic. A hacking cough takes all the beauty out of a landscape or a suuset. Erysipelas or eczema will spoil the enjoyment of sprightly conversa tion, of a beautiful concert, of a wonderful painting. The biggest bank account in the world won't pay a man for his health, but a very small amount of money will make him healthy and keep him healthy. Nature is a hard worker and will stand much abuse, but wheu overworked, she must have help or trouble will follow. Most all bodily troubles start in the digestive or respiratory organs. It is here that improper living first makes an opening for disease. The development differs as constitutions and temperaments diner. The causes are almost identical. To get at the root of the matter is simple enough if you start right. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discover' is a medicine for the whole body. It svorks through the digestive organs on all the others. It cures the first thing it comes to and after that, the next. It puts health in place of disease in the stomach, and from the vantage ground thus gained, it reaches every fiber of the body and drives disease before it indigestion, liver troubles, kidney complaint, biliousness, skin and scalp diseases, salt-rheum, tetter, eczema, and all the troubles caused by impure blood.

It wilUiardly be this week, or evon next, that Jimmy Sheridan, 'the umbrella mender, will have -gained the alleged million or soof dollars that, according to report, some obliging relative has left him. Jimmy has ptit in most of his time, of late in the city gall for wife-beating, and, had it not been for the unexpected rise in the Sheridan family stock, he would be' there now on a similar charge. It was only a day or so ago that he was released, and; before dark, Mrs. Sheridan was on hand with another complaint, and her pugilistic Jimmy was locked up. Be fore he was brought into court Mrs. Sher idan received a letter through the mail inclosing a clipping from a Chicago paper stating that somewhere in England an Inmate of a workhouse named John Sher idan was supposed to be the heir too 300,000. Mrs. Sheridan, after reading the clipping, promptly refused to appear against her husband, but spent a portion of her time looking at the new spring styles in dresses, displayed in a Washington-street window. When she told Jimmy of the great news he instantly came to the conclusion that the Sheridan in the English workhouse was none other than his long-lost father. He cannot read nor write, so had to rely on the limited knowledge of his wife. She, woman-like, went to see a lawyer with whom she intrusted the important missive, which came, as she said, from a friend. The letter was also turned over to the attorney. When it was first whis pered about the city jail that "Umbrella Jimmy" was heir to a fortune, the boys had no end of sport with him. He and his wife had their first confidential chat for many a month. Cecil Hoicomb, the attorney, heard it, and at once volunteered his services to secure the pile of gold that was waiting on Jimmy's order. It then occurred to Mrs. Sheridan that she had already employed an attorney, so Lawryer Holcomb made a call on Mr. Ralph Piatt, who had been retained by Mrs. Sheridan, and demanded all documents In his pos slon appertaining to the Shermans. All that Mr. Piatt did was to lz.ugh. Mr. Holcomb was in dead earnest, and re peated his demand, only to be Informed that the papers would be surrendered on payment of the consultation fee. "And how much is that?" asked Mr. Holcomb, running his hand down his trousers pocket. "One hundred dollars," said Mr. Pratt, and then Mr. Holcomb almost swooned, but he recovered sufficiently to find his way down stairs. The obscure clipping from a Chicago paper, and the letter from a friend still remain in custody of At torney Pratt, and Mis. Sheridan still con tents herself by looking at spring styles through a plate-glass window. - Age Has Xot iHipro-v ctl Their 3Ianncrs Hartford Courant. Perhaps it is just as well that the sands of the last session of the 53d con gress are fast running out. The tempers of the members show signs of wear and tear. First, the Hon. William C. P. Breckinridge, aged 5S, tries to punch the nose ot the Hon. John T. Heard, aged 54. Then the Hon. Uriel S. Hall, aged 43, accused Hon. William H. Hatch, aged 62, of telling a whopper, and was promptly Informed that he would never have dared to use such language outside the house. Then the Hon. William E. Chandler, aged 60, announced that he was not going to be scolded by the Hon. Matthew C. But ler, aged 59, and received an immediate assurance from that senator that he had better uses for his time. Then the Hon. John H. Mitchell, aged 60, accused the Hon. Isham G. Harris age unknown, already practicing law in 1SU of un gentlemanly behavior, and was told on the spot that his own conduct was con temptible.
