Two Kinds of Heroism.
No one is Irretrievably lost In whom
the sense of honor survives. A Paris
paper recounts the case of a woman
who had been arrested, convicted of
some offense, and sentenced to impris
onment A detective was taking her to
the prefecture fromBoulogne-sur-Selne,
by steamer, when at the Concorde
bridge a well-dressed man threw him
self into the river and was drowning
before their eyes.
The officer was a brave man and an
excellent swimmer; it cost him a strug
gle to see a life lost which he might
save, if he were free to act
"If I were alone," he exclaimed, "1
would save that man."
"Save him," said the woman. "I will
wait for you at the pier."
The officer hesitated fop an instant
and then plunged Into the water. He
had barely seized the drowning man
when a boat struck him violently, and
he lost his grip. He dived again, but
vainly, and at last Quite exhausted,
was pulled into a small boat, which
Itself narrowly escaped collision with a
steamer.
The heroic officer was cheered by the
crowd who had witnessed his bravery,
and the body of the man he had striven
to save was recovered later. Bat his
was not the only honorable conduct
shown, for on the pier the woman, true
to her word, was waiting for the detec
tive, and handed him his coat. In the
pocket of which wbb the warrant upon
Which she had been arrested.
One is glad to learn that her honor
able conduct will not go unappreciated.
When it was reported to the chief of
the department be Immediately ordered
the prisoner to be released in recogni
tion of her humanity and honor.
Boiler Scale,
A very novel method of getting rid of
scale in o boiler is credited by a Boston
paper to an engineer in that city. The
scale came from the nse of well water.
The feedpipe enters the front of the
boiler just about the water line, and has
slots cut in it about an eighth of an
inch wide, instead of the ordinary spray
ing method of distributing the water,
and surrounding the feed pipes is a
larger pipe, about 6 inches in diameter
and out away at the top ; the feed water
enters the boiler and discharges through
the slots in the feed pipe, depositing all
the foreign matter in the water into
this catch pipe instead of into the boiler
the success of the plan depending
upon having a high temperature of feed
at abont the boiling point, when the
solids held in suspension or solution in
water will be deposited.
A paragraph which will appeal
with much force to all men who
go to the theaters is one in
a recent number of Life, in
which that journal remarks that it ob
serves with consternation that the
large hats are coming in again in the
theaters. Life closes with these bitter
remarks: "It is not too much to say
that the height of the bat which a wo
man wears on her head in the theater
is in Inverse proportion to her breeding,
and, as a rule, to her respectability.
The women who wear the biggest and
most offensive bats, and refuse to take
them off, are commonly dames who,
from disastrous personal experiences,
have become hardened in Indifference
to public opinion."
DRIVEN FROM THE CITADEL.
The warmth of spring and summer may
do much to relax the muscular system and
make many feel much more comfortable,
bat there is this about the old enemy
rheumatism, that when he once takes
bold, lie tries to hold the citadel at all eea-
ons ol toe year. Hut whether this arch
enemy lurks in the muscles, joints, bones
or the nerves, he is such an enemy to
human happiness that he must be driven
out of finv stronghold. It wri nlannaul
long a;o to do this, and Bt. Jacobs Oil as a
knight in battle has scored wonderful vic
tories. At all times he is ready to over

KNOWLEDGE
Brines comfort and improvement; and
tends to personal enjoyment . when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
?ess expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the world's best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative ; effectually cleansing tbe system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
ana permanently curing constipation.
It hat given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
cists in 60c and $1 bottles, but it is man

Co. only, whose name is printed on every

Absolutely Pure
PEAK BfcLL RINGERS.
They Entertained the Tnbllc Manj
Year Abo,
Not many people are aware that in
the house at 354 South First street Is
living a bright, eutertalntng old man,
who for forty years won popularity and
fame among music-loving people lu
the United States and Canada as the
head of the Peak family of Swiss bell
ringers, says the Brooklyn Eagle. His
eighty-eight years weigh tightly upon
his shoulders, for In general health and
activity he is the peer of many a man
nearly two-score years his Juuior, and
his touch on the keys of the piano and
organ is delightfully graceful and true.
Iudeed, It may be said that William
M. Peak Is thoroughly enjoying his
ripe old age in that happy musical at
mosphere which always buoyed him
up through life, and which still seems
to fill all his recollections of tbe past
aud thoughts of the present with tbe
spirit of melody.
I must tell you," resumed Mr. Peak,
"how I came to organize my family
Into a troupe of 8wlss bell-ringers. It
was In the early fifties, and all my
children were able to perform well on
the harp and other musical Instru
ments, while my wife had gained fame
everywhere with her soprano voice.
You see we were a thoroughly musical
family, some of my children having
appeared in public when they Were
only 3 or 4 years old. Well, Barnum
had Just brought out some bell-ringers
from Switzerland, and I saw and
heard them at his American museum
In New York. From that moment I
was enthusiastic over Swiss bell-ring-Ing,
and, importing my own bells from
Switzerland, I organized the family
troupe, which gained almost Instanta
neous popularity and distinction.
"We had other musical features, of
course, but the bells were our chief
features. Sometimes we had fifteen
or seventeen persons in the tronpe. My
family consisted of seven namely, my
wife, myself, and my five children, Will
lam, Edward, Julia. Fanny, and L'sette.
My wife and Lizette are dead. Will
iam is In the West in company with
his brother Edward. Julia Is In Boston
and Fanny Is In Milwaukee. All my
living children are still professional
and successful musicians. My own
work is done, except that I still play
a little for my own entertainment,
and once In a while for old friends.
We often played In Brooklyn twenty
years ago and more, both at this end
of the town and down by the city hall,
and at the Atheneum on Atlantic ave
nue. One of the places we played In
here Is now the Novelty Theater, but
in the old days It was a public hall,
known first as the Odeon and after
ward as the Apollo rooms. When I
came here over ten years ago I be
came greatly attached to the Rev. Dr.
Almon Gunnison, then the pastor of
All Souls' Unlversallst Church, and
I am a member of that church to-day.
I am glad to let my friends know that
I am not broken down or feeble."

Possibilities of the Ray.
It has long been known that sunlight
Is a potent destroyer of noxious germs,
and the general belief is that It is the
actinic rays that chiefly have such ac
tion. Now, If the X rays are merely
the Invisible ultra-violet rays of the
spectrum, they are probably the most
actinic of all. Indeed, that is indi
cated by their effect upon photographic
plates. That they may prove to be
powerful germicide agents, and it may
be needful only to pass them through
the human body to destroy all tbe nox
ious bacteria In tbe most remote and In
accessible tissues. Of course, that Is
mere speculation. But In these days It
Is rash to say anything Is impossible.

UNCLE SAM'S BONDS.
HOW THE VALUABLE PIECES OF PA
PER ARE MADE.
TtM Maw Israa Will Be a Duplicate of tbe
bane of Laat Tear A Real Arttit a De
signer Tarioaa Stepe In the Froeeeaea
of Turning; Them Oat,
The way in which United States
bonds are designed, engraved and made
ready to be turned over to the investor
in return for his gold coin or its equiva
lent is one of the most interesting parts
of the workings of the treasury depart
ment branch of the national government.
The coming bond issue will not be what
is technically known as a new issue,
but will be a duplication of the issue of
February, 1895.
Tbe designer of the plates is a well
known New York artist who enjoys high
reputation as a magazine and book illus
trator. This is Mr. Will H. Low, aud
for the past year he has been the star
man of the corps of artists attached to
tbe treasury department. In addition to
the work of drafting the design for the
bonds be has designed several schemes
for currency. '
After the announcement of a bond is
sue the secretary calls iu the chief of the
department of engraving and printing
and tells him the denominations to be
issued. These may be iu coupon bonds
of 950, $100, $o00 aud $1,000. The
same denominations may be issued in
registered bonds, with the addition of
others of a higher face value. . The ad
ditional ones are for $5,000, $10,000,
$20,000 and $50,000. The issues of the
two latter denominations have been very
small.
After the chief has received his in
structions he turns the matter over to
the artist, who at once designs the plate.
It is an erroneous impression that for
every issue a new series of plates is en
graved. The artist may use any one of
a number of vignette likenesses of his
torio Americans, and he mortises it into
the drawing.
When completed, it is submitted to
the chief for his approval and then to
tbe secretary of the treasury. If the de
sign is all right, it is turned over to tbe
engravers.
This usually requires from a month to
six weeks. The engraving is done on a
thin sheet of soft steel of a thickness of
an eighth of an inch. By a secret process
the metal is hardened when finished,
and a proof is taken, which is submit
ted to tbe chief of the bureau. This
proof then must be approved.
Tbe plate then goes to the printer and
the work of turning off the bonds be
gins. The bonds are printed on the same
kind of paper as that used for currency
and each impression is carefully watch
ed, If any imperfection renders a copy
worthless, it is destroyed by the officials,
after being returned from the press
rooms. But for each sheet of bond paper
taken out there must be returned a simi
lar number of copies, either perfect or
otherwise. After the work of printing
is done the securities are counted aud
checked off and are then made ready for
delivery to the purchaser. When their
final destination is determined npon, au
employee of the department, accompa
nied by an escort, takes charge of the
bonds and delivers them to tha pur
chasers. In the last issue Mr. Logan
Carlisle, son of the secretary, had charge
of the deliverance of the securities.
The difference between tbe two classes
of bonds coupon and registered is
great. The former are like currency,
payable to the bearer, and no record of
their transfer is ever made. The interest
coupons may be collected by any one
who presents them at a national bank
or subtreasury.
The registered bonds are safer in case
of a burglary, as they are absolutely
nonnegotiable except by tbe signature
of the holder as evidenced by the books
ol the treasury department at Washing
ton. When registered bonds are sold, the
name of the purchaser is placed in a
book kept for the purpose. There are no
Interest coupons attached, but each quar
ter a check is mailed from Washington
for the accumulated Interest, which is
payable at any subtreasnry.
Should the holder desire to sell his
registered bonds, the transfer must take
place before some official of tbe treasury
department or an officer of a national
bank. The fact of the sale is then for
warded to Washington and the necessary
alterations made in the registered bond
book.
Although the face design of a govern
ment bond is less intricate and puzzling
than tbe designs used on currency, ef
forts to counterfeit them have been rare.
The noted forger, Brockway, was the
author of tbe last bogus government
bond issue that was detected. It was a
duplication of a coupon bond of the is
sue of 1861, tbe first of the war loans,
which matured in 1881. Tbedenomina
tion was $1,000. Tbe work was poorly
executed, and its worthlessness was soon
detected. It was for this that Brockway
served his longest term in the peniten
tiary. New York World.

CONSUMPTION CURED
AN ABSOLUTE REMEDY FOR ALL
PULMONARY COMPLAINTS.
T. A. Sloeum offers to Bead Two Bot
tles Free of His Remedy to Cure
Consumption and All Lung Troubles
-An Elixir of Life.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan
thropic or carry more joy in its wake than
the offer of T. A. Hlooum, M. C, of 183
rear, street, new xork. rerlectly con a
dent that he bag an absolute remedy for
the cure of consumption and all pulmon
ary complaints, he offers through this pa
per to send two bottles tree to any reader
who is suffering from lung trouble or con
sumption, also loss of hesu and all condi
tions of wasting. He invites those desir
ous of obtaining this remedy to send their
express and postothce address, and to re
ceive in return the two bottles free, which
will arrest the approach of death. Al
ready this remedy, by iu timely use, has
permanently cured thousands of cases
which were given up, and death was looked
upon as an early visitor.
Knowing his remedy as ha does, and be
ing so proof-positive of its beneficent re
sults, Dr. Slocum considers it his religious
duty, a duty which he owes to humanity,
to donate his infallible remedy where it
will assault the enemy in ita eidatel, and,
by its Inherent potencystay the current
of dissolution, bringing joy to homes over
which the shadow ot the grave has been
gradually growing more strongly defined,
causing fond hearts to grieve. The cheap
ness of the remedy offered freely apart
from its inherent strength, is enough to
commend it, and more so is the perfect
confidence of the great chemist making the
offer, who holds out life to those already
becoming emaciated, and says : "Be
cured."
Xhe invitation Is certainly worthy of the
consideration of the afflicted, who for
years, have been taking nauseous nostrums
without effect; who have ostracised them
selves from home and friends to live in
more salubrious dimes, where the atmos
phere is more congenial to weakened lungs,
and who have fought against death with
all the weapons and strength in their
hands. There will be no mistake in send
ing for these free bottles the mistake will
be in passing the invitation by.

' A 000 THAT REASONED.
Kd.W Wh.B II Was Sale tm Sleep
II la M Bator's Bed.
No one that know Bombshell ever
doubted that he reasoned and thought,
but otritHiuiiully I would find a struugur
who was not inclined to bcliove it, aud
tlifii I would toll him the following
story : My imilnr was u front cusMiiute
wbiuh o'li'iit'd by uu iirch into my bud
room, a buck ciisumuta A cimmiiHto
limy bo described ns a room iu the wull
of a fort, geuernlly intended, iu war
time, to hold a gun or powder, whilo in
time of ponce niuny of thorn, like mine,
are lit tod up fur use us quarters for otll
0WH mid soldiers.
lloinbsliell had his own bed in tha
bnok ctixenieut, but he preferred my bed
and would use it whenever ho could. I
hud (vied to break hi in of the hubit, but
hud not been BiicooNnfiil.
One dny ho oiiine iu wet and muddy,
and, as usual, curled np on my white
counterpane, The result was awful. As
much its I hated to do so, I felt obligod
to give him a thruHliiug.
, 1 never cnught hiiu oil my bed again.
He would still get on it; but, no mat
tor how quietly I came in, I would al
wn'ya find hint on the floor, though I
could see from the rumpled condition of
the bed that he hud been on it, and of
ten the spot where ho hud slept would
still be v unii.
Oue evening I went out, leaving
Bombshell lying by the parlor stove.
Out of curiosity I peeked through tha
bulf turned sluts ot my shutters and
wutched him. From my position I was
ablo to soe the whole of both of iny
rooms.
For awhile Bombshell did not move;
thou he raised his head aud looked at
the door; limilly he got up, stretched
hlmsolf, yawned sleoplly, walked to tha f
bed, jumped up, and put his fore paws
on it. Htautling iu this position, a
tlionght struck him, aud hesuld to him
self: "Suppose that my mantcr hasn't gone?
Ho will cutoli nie and then I shall get a
licking. I'll go and make certain that
he is not comiiig back."
I know that ho suid this because ha
took his puws off the bed, wulked cau
tiously buck to the frout door, and, with
his ear close to the crack, he listened.
At lust, satisfied thut I bad really gone,
he trotted buck to tlio bed, jumped on
it, curlod up aud wont to sleep.
Aftor snch a clever act I thought that
he had earned his sleep, so I wout away
aud left him. St. Nicholas.
Poultry Culture.
The rapid strides ot poultry culture
during the lust few years has attracted
tho atteutlou of all classes of society
as a pleasant aud healthful occupation,
says the Independent. Our cities are
crowded to excess with men of trades
and professions. Tho wages paid for
any labor but that requiring skill and
experience Is barely enough to support
a family when the head of It works six
days every week; still, nothing . laid
up for a rainy day, and lu seasons of
depression It Is a problem to secure
enough to cat. While this condition ex
ists In business centers, the couutry
contains land I'tumuli to support the
nation and feed the multitudes with
wholesome food. There are thousands
of places Hint can be loosed for a term
of yenm, on which persons with aver
ago Intelligence could produce poultry
and egKs at a prollt, and those who,
by thrift and careful attention to de
tails, often Iny up cnpltul and a good
surplus for future emergency.
