There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the- last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many.years doctors . pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure in the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acta directly on the
bloodand mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. . Address.

CLEVER WORK OF AN OCULIST.
Bow a Damage Salt Was Defeated Ttarmth
a Little Knowledge of Optics. - - -
Here is an interesting account of a
very clever bit of detective work by an
oculist. It appears that in a large fac
tory, in which were employed several
hundred persons, one of the workmen,
in wielding his hammer, carelessly al
lowed it to slip from his hand. It flew
half way across ' the room and struck a
fellow workingman in the left "eye.
The man averred that his sight was
blinded by the blow, although a care
ful examination failed to reveal any In
jury, there being not a scratch, visible.
He brought a suit in the courts for
compensation for the loss of half of his
eyesight, and refused all offers of com
promise. Under the law, says the Sheffield
(England) Telegraph, the owner of the
factory was responsible for . an injury
resulting from an accident of this kind,
and although he believed that the man
was shamming and that the whole case
was an attempt at swindling, he had
about made up his mind that he would
be compelled to pay the claim. The
day of the trial arrived, and in open
court an eminent oculist retained for
the defense examined the alleged in
jured member and gave it as his opin
ion that it was as good as the right
eye. Upon the plaintiffs loud protest
of his inability to. see with his left eye,
the oculist proved him a perjurer and
satisfied the court and jury of the fal
sity of his claim.
And how do you suppose he. did it?
Why, simply by knowing that the
colors green and red combined make
black. He procured a black card on
which a few words were written with
green ink. Then the plaintiff was or
dered to put on a pair of spectacles
with two different glasses, the one for
the right eye being red and the one for
the left eye consisting of ordinary
glass. Then the card was handed liim
and he was ordered to read the writing
on it. This he did without hesitation,
and the cheat was at once exposed.
The sound right eye, fitted with red
glass,- was unable to distinguish the
green writing on the black surface of
the card, while the left eye, which he
pretended was sightless, was the one
with which the reading had to be done.
NO TIME BUT TO EAT.
tion from the Hotel Clerk Which
. Staggered the Arkansans. . -
A tall, grizzly man, wearing a broad
brimmed slouch hat of a muddy yellow
color, and big, wide breeches tucked in
the high tops of his massive boots,
tramped across the tiled floor of the
Laclede rotunda and stopped before
the marble-topped counter, from be
hind which CoL Tom Pritchard gave a
cheery greeting, says the St. Louis Re
public. The tall, grizzly man said he
was from Red Dog, Ark., and he looked
like it when, with his son, he arrived
at the Laclede.
"Me an' Bill jist come in this mornin'
with a cyar of hawgs, an' we Towed
we'd come in frum th stock yards
t'other side the river an' see the sights,"
said the tall, trrrazlv man as he shook
nands with Col. Pritchard. "Whut's
the cheapest room ye c'n give me an'
Bill? We don't give a durn fer style ;
jist like ye have yerse'f is good enough
fer us tu. Eh, Bill?" . - -
: Bill nodded his head with panto
mimic approval and Col. Pritchard
gave the information that the cheapest
room he had for two was five dollars a
day. . v .
"By jinks! That's mighty steep!" re
marked the tall, grizzly man. "Th'
tavern down ut Bed Dog on'y charges
one dollar a day. But I reckon, bein'
as we're hyar, we'll go th whole hawg.
Eh, Bill?" .
Bill's head nodded again with pan
tomimic assent and the old man asked
Col. Pritchard:
"What time is meals ready?"
"Breakfast from seven to ten a. m.,
dinner from half-past twelve to two
p. m. and snpper from six, to nine p.
m.," replied Col. Pritchard.
The old man was as silent as a ghost
for about a minute and then he ex
claimed: "Gosh a'mighty, Bill, we
can't see any sights! We won't have
no time to do nuthin'. but eat!"
IT WAS BIG MONEY.
What the Little Gtrl Cot for Kindness to
an Old Woman.
An interesting story comes from
Soho, says the Leeds (England) Mer
cury. Some time ago an old woman
named Sarah Edwards, who lived for
some years in humble lodgings in Ger
rard street, Soho, called to her a little
girl named Mary Gordon, who had per
formed various kindly offices for her.
After asking for and receiving a kiss
from the child the old lady said to her:
"You have been very kind and at
tentive to me, and I will make you a
present." The little one no" doubt ex
pected sixpence at the least, but all
she received was a very dirty, greasy
bit of rpaper. She was somewhat dis
appointed, but placed the paper among
her other little possessions and thought
no more' of the matter until the fol
lowing morning, when she heard that
her old friend was dead. She then be
thought her of the peculiar gift and
handed it to her father.. He, a mechanic
working in Long Acre, recognized it as
a fifty-pound sterling bank note, but,
owing to its tattered condition, de
cided to consult a solicitor before at
tempting to cash it. The solicitor's
clerk, with some difficulty and paste,
joined the disunited parts. He then
presented the note at the Bank of Eng
land, where it was immediately cashed

An absent-minded landlord called on
a tenant to condole with him on the
death-of a valuable cow. The cause
of its decease had been enveloped in
mystery, and, while explaining it, the
landlord, though a kind and sympa
thizing person, went off . into the
clouds. The last words of the narra
tive were: "And can you believe it,
my lord, when we opened her we found
she had been choked by a large turnip
that was sticking in her gullet." Here
the landlord woke up, and in a congrat
ulatory tone of voice observed: "Ah,
