Marvelous results.
From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun
derman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are
permitted to make this extract: "I have
no hesitation in recommending Dr.
King's New Discovery, as the results
were almost marvelous in the case of my
wife. While I was pastor of the Baptist
Church at .Rivers junction she was
brought down with Pneumonia succeed
ing La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of
coughing would last hours with little in
terruption and it seemed as if she could
not survive them. A friend recom
mended Dr. Kingis New Discovery ; it
was quick in its work and highly satis
factory in results." Trial bottles free at

Henry Wilson, the postmaster at
Welshton, Florida, says he cared a case
ot diarrhoea of long standing in six hours
-with one small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
"What a pleasant surprise that must have
been to the sufferer. Such cures are not
. unusual with this remedy. In many
instances only one or two doses are re-
quired to give permanent relief. It can
always de depended upon. When re
duced with water it is pleasant to take.

IT WAS NO CAT."
The Malodorous Experience of Two Un-
sophisticated Policemen.
Two policemen were trudging along
their beat on Pequot avenue, in the
heart of New London, at a late hour
the other night, says the Boston Her
ald, and they were not hunting at all
not scenting game at any rate when a
thickset looking cat sauntered along
the sidewalk, clad in a gay striped
suit fashionable in country walks, at
this season.
"Kitty! Kitty!" caUeo" one patrolman,
kindly. "Come here, kee-eety!'' and
then he tapped the stranefer gently
with the tip of his night stick.
But it was not a cat in the least not
a cat of the kind they were used to
and it grossly and basely abused their
confidence, and so they fairly ham
mered the stuffing out of theoingrate
ful beast, both men did.
In fact it seemed as if they could
never get their fill of satisfaction out of
it, so brimful of indignation and resent
ment and other emotions and things
were they; and then they bore the frail
remains of their prey into the police
station with more deference than ten
derness. But the police captain temporarily
excused them from doing further duty
in the populous and cultured walks of
the town, and nightly now -they patrol
a lonesome and sequestered picket in
the far outskirts, and relations are
strained between them and the rest of
their fellow-citizens.
A New View of the Ox.
"A railroad train that I was on the
other day," 'said a man, "went with a
rush and a roar across a little bridge
"under which at that moment there was
a man driving an ox team. A moment
later as we rushed on we saw the team
out on the road, the oxen jumping and
skipping and apparently trying to run
away. The driver was standing in the
cart and swinging his goad around and
bringing it down on them with vigor
ous whacks; finally he cRecked 'em. I
don't pretendto know much about oxen,
maybe they're given to running away,
but to me it was a new view of the dull
and plodding ox."
A Kentucky Indictment.
, A few years ago a Kentucky grand
jury brought in an indictment in which
it stated that the defendant ".did un
lawfully, willfully and maliciously kill
and destroy one pig, the personal prop
erty of George Pigg, the said pig being
of value to the aforesaid George Pigg.
The pig thus killed weighed about
twenty-five pounds and was a mate of
some other pigs owned by said George
Pigg, which, left George Pigg a pig less
than he (said George Pigg) had of pigs,
and thus ruthlessly tore said pig from
the society of George Pigg's other pigs
against the peace and dignity of the
commonwealth of Kentucky."

The Significance of Many of Them Shrond
' ed in Mystery. - -
What the learned Dr. Aiken once
calrefc"A Visible Image -of an Invisible
Thing,'" in! fact the emblem, has so lit
tle record' in modern times, that even
the encyclopedias give concerning' it
only the dictionary definition. Yet
two centuries ago it formed the subject
for the work of some of the best
writers, painters and engravers of Eu
rope; while antiquity has illustrated it
vn a myriad of forms, the meaning of
which is in thousands of instances lost
to us in the mystery and darkness that
overshadows the history of so much of
human life.
.Any object which presents at a
glance a meaning, beyond its mere ap
pearance is an emblem. The torch for
Illumination, the scales for Justice, the
anchor for Hope, the owl for Wisdom,
the butterfly for the Soul, the scythe
and hour-glass for death. The first at
tempt at writing was emblematical,
and Chinese writing is so to this day.
So were the Egyptian hieroglyphics
and the same can be said of our own
Indian picture writing.
All coinage, from the first Hebrew
shekel to the last American dollar; all
the flags of all nations; all state or na
tional seals, are emblematical of some
thing. The cross, the crown, the scep
ter, the miter, every church steeple in
every land, mosque, minaret and pago
da, "temple and shrine, idol and fetish,
all are emblems.
Every letter in every language, every
figure, the sign of every trade and pro
fession, the roses of England, the lilies
of France, Ireland's shamrock and
Scotland's thistle, are all emblems.
And yet, strangely enougn, it is only
by persistent search that one can find
put even the least about the origin of
this class of art, the meaning of its
varied forms, the hidden sense being
often lost utterly while only the form
remains.
HIS LEG WAS BROKEN.
Bnt It Was a Wooden Lcc and Didn't
Hurt Sim Seriously.
Police officers detailed in charge of
postal wagons see more of the woes and
ills of suffering humanity than most
people. Late one night a short time
ago a Chicago saloonkeeper called for
the ambulance from the West Chicago
avenue station, saying there was a man
lying on the sidewalk near Carpenter
and Front streets badly injured and
unconscious. The unfortunate was
bundled into the ambulance and
landed in the examining room at the
county hospital. On the way to the
hospital the sufferer became partially
conscious and indicated that his right
leg was the cause of great discomfort.
He could not speak English, bnt the
officers understood that his right leg
had been injured. In the examining
room he made an extremely wry face
when the physican approached, and it
was then discovered he had been drink
ing heavily. The physician felt the
man's right leg between the knee and
ankle without drawing up the panta
loons or exposing the skin, and found
the lone broken "badly four or five
inches above the ankle, and the pa
tient was then removed to the operating
room. Here a more complete examin
ation was made, and it was . learned
the man's right leg was broken in the
most terrible manner. When the
patient saw the condition of his leg he
actually shed tears. It was a wooden
leg, and he was drunk and bemoaning
the expense to be incurred in the pur
chase cf another leg.
HOME VIEWS OF EDISON.
Some of Ills Neighbors Don't Believe That
He Is Such a Wonder, After Ail.
Prophets are not the only great peo
ple without honor in their own coun
try, said a man who had spent some
time at Menlo Park looking for Thoma!
A. Edison. I wanted to see the experi
mental apparatus on which the Ameri
can wizard is at work with a view to re
ducing iron ore by electricity The
workmen told me I could see it only
with the permission of Mr. Edison,
whom I could find somewhere about
the place. To my disappoincment I
failed to find him, but I had an in
structive search. The people there
abouts do not think the inventor of the
kinetoscope is such a very great man.
"He only got.it (the idea) accidental
ly," said one woman. '
On my way out I met a locomotive
engineer who knew Edison, and he told
me with great glee of a really practical
accomplishment of the inventor's abil
ity to. run a locomotive.
"EdiSon once roda in my cab," he
said, "and he told me how, when he
was a train dispatcher, he once forgot
orders and allowed two trains on the
same section of track. He corrected
his mistake, but not so soon that the es
cape from collision was due to him, and
he was discharged. While waiting for
a train to the next town it was in the
west an accident happened to an en
gineer who was to take an important
train up the road. No one to replace him
was at hand, and Edison took his place
and ran the train. Think of that!"
added the engineer.
A BISHOP'S BAD NIGHT.
Popped Into a "Spare Bed" in Which Sil
ver Was Stored.
An eminent bishop who was quar
tered in the house of the wealthiest
resident in a certain village, while his
host s wife was away, occupied- the
"spare bed." He is a thin man, and
when his host inquired in the morning
how he had slept and hoped he had
passed an agreeable night, he an
swered, with some vehemence: "No,
I did not; I passed a very disagreeable
night, indeed.
The bishop departed, and when the
wife of his host returned she naturally
inquired who had been in the house in
her absence.
"Bishop P ," said the husband.
"Bishop P ! Where did you put
him to sleep?
"In the spare bed, of course." '
"In the spare bed!" shrieked the hor
rified matron. "Why, I put all the
silver under the mattress before I went
away." - '
