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 cured a case
- of diarrhoea of long standing in six hours
with one small bottle of Chamberlain's

What a pleasant surprise that must have
been to the sufferer. Such cures are not
unusual with this remedy. In many

quired to give permanent relief. It can
always de depended upon. When re
duced with water it is pleasant to take.

AFRICAN CUSTOMS.
Episodes Which a Traveler Saw In the
Toroba Country.
Jean Hess; a French-African travel
er, gives in Le Figaro of recent date an
unaccustomed view of the savage De
gress. He pictures her as having a
beauty of her own befitting the climate
and vegetatiou of tropical Africa.
That, however, might be a matter of
taste, and, perhaps, most writers would
find it hard to discover, with M. Hess,
m the -naked negress a "living' bronze,
of unimpeachable lines," a creature
whose pride and dignity suggest "what
ancient poets tell of Athenian priest
esses and Roman empresses."
Matter of fact and not of taste, h ow
ever, is to be found in the account M .
Hess gives of love and inarriajre among
some of the savage African tribes. In
the country of the Yoruba, extending
from the Gulf of Benin to the Nlg-er, M.
Hess saw a young negro who, after
sacrificing a pigeon upon the end of a
stream, threw its plumage upon the
water, and chanted a prayer .to Iinoya,
protector of the. bottom of the sea.
Imoya is a white genius that
lives at, the bottom of the stream. He
has power to inspire virgins with love
of the young men that implore his aid.
Prayer is made to Imoya in secret
place, with the sacrifice of honey cakes
and white doves. Here is a love chant
that is sung to Imoya:
"There is in the house of the chief a
beautiful virgin, Rere by name, the
loveliest of all. She has large hips as
those of a heifer; she has arms as
strong as a warrior's; she has eyes as
sweet as the antelope's; her voice is a
chant gayer than those of the birds;
her dancing is light and a pleasure to
see; she is supple and undulous as the
sacred serpent; she is lovelier than may
be told. I would like' her well for a
wife. She would honor me in my
house and she would give me beautiful
children. But she is proud and mock
ing. She will laugh at me when I
would buy her, and 1 shall not be able
to conduct her to my house. Imoya,
give her to me!"
The girls also have their chants,
fetiches and ceremonies to obtain hus
bands. In a village of Yoruba, J.I. Hess
saw a group of young negresses per
forming these rites about a great
baobab tree; They carried jars of oil,
and sang, moving slowly, with naked
bosoms, with measured cadence and
harmonious balancing. As they danced
they affixed white bits of cloth to the
tree. The observer saw nothing gro
tesquo or laughable in the scene.
. -M. Hess says that the savage negress
has her coquetries, and asserts that she
submits to painful tattooing that she
may seem more beautiful to men. The
marriage of a rich man of the Egbas to
,the daughter of a chief was a notable
ceremony. The maiden's consent hav
ing been obtained, the future husband
paid her father the agreed price. As
the newly married couple- journeyed
homeward people along the way laid
down branches and flowers, saying:
"The genii . give thee a beautiful
spouse; forget not that she is more pre
cious than all thy riches. The virgin
whom thou takest was the charm of
the house, the charm of the city. Thou
desired her. When thou hast given us
all thy treasures thou shalt not have
paid enough."
SCARED HER INTO SPEECH.
This Engaging Woman Was Deaf and
Dum!) Until Caught OH Her Guard.
A prepossessing middle-ag-ed woman
walked into the office of a well-known
firm of railroad lawyers on Williams
street the other day and drifted over to
where the junior partner sat. She had
courtplaster and other trilling articles
to sell for ten cents and showed at the
sa me time a card on . which was writ
ten: "I am deaf and dumb."
The lawyer was interested, says the
New York World, for the wpman had a
sad face and seemed eminently re
spectable. So he wrote on a pad: "Any
children?" and she in the same manner
answered: "Yes." To the question:
"How many?" the reply was: "Six,"
emphasized by a mournful shake of the
head. She acknowledged in writing
that her husband was dead. When
her address was asked for she was
rather slow in putting it on paper, and
when it came to references she wrote,
with a good deal of deliberation: "John
Davis."
"Where does he live?" was the next
question, to which the woman wrote
no reply, but indicated with her hand
a point on the horizon that might have
meant Jersey or heaven.
"Great Scott! You don't mean to say
you know Davis?" shouted the lawyer,
jumping to his feet. ' -
"Yes, I do," answered the woman,
taken off her guard by the vehemence
of the speaker.
They looked at one another for a mo
ment and then the lawyer called an
office boy and told him to show her the
street by the way of the stairs, eight
long flights. r
Keeping: Composed.
To maintain one's composure under
circumstances of a trying nature is
about as difficult a task as has ever
been set for mankind. The Frenchman
is so rarely able to keep cool that he
marvels at the Englishman's stolid in
difference to mOst of the ills of life,
arid in a French work published some
years ago a certain "Milord Hamilton"
is held up as the prince of the com
posed, "for," says the writer, "Milord
Hamilton, having killed a hotel waiter
in a brawl, being informed of the man's
death by the landlord, composedly or
ders his host to charge it in the bill."
Strange Properties of Cryostase.
A German . chemist is reported to
have discovered a new substance which
has the remarkable and unique proper
ty of solidifying when heated and re
maining liquid at temperatures below
zero. It has been named "cryostase,"
and is obtained by mixing together
equal parts of phenol, camphor and
saponine, and adding a somewhat
smaller proportion of essence of tur
pentine. Certain substances, like the
albumens, harden on he ating, but this
is the only product that again liquefies
on coolinrr. .
