A SPECIFIC FOB La Grippe, for Colds, Coughs, AND LUNG TROUBLES, AVER'S CHERRY PECTORAL " Two years ago, I bad the grippe, and it left me with a cough which gave me no rest night or day. My family physician prescribed for me, changing the medicine as often as he found the things I had taken were not helping me, but, in spite of his attendance, I got no better. Finally, my husband, read ing one day of a gentleman who had had the grippe and was cured by taking Ayer's Cherry Pectoral; procured, for me, a bottle of this medicine, and before X had taken half of it, I was cured. I nave used the Pectoral for my children and in my family, whenever, we have needed it; and have found it a specific for colds, coughs, and lung troubles." Emily Wood, North St., Elkton, Md.

The secretary of the interior has denied the motion of Abel Erskine, for review of the departmental decision of The Dalles land district case of Arthur Cousens vs. Erskine. Erskine claimed to have settled on the land with the ex pectation of purchasing it from the - Northern Pacific railroad if they should obtain a title thereto. William Floyd loses in his appeal from the lower action in the case of Rupert H. Childs vs. Floyd, in The Dalles dis trict. The general land office, in Janu ary, 1895, reversed the decision of the local officers, ana held Floyd's entry for cancellation. The secretary in the de cision in the case says : "However bona fide and good Floyd's intention may have been, when he fenced the land involved, orjat any other time to purchase it of the Military-Road Company,' when it secured title and wanted to sell it, such intention would not avail him' under the most liberal construction of the act of September 29, 1890. This act was intended to protect and accord the right' of purchase to all euch as could bring themselves within its cerms, and at the same time open the forfeited lands to disposition to claim ants under the homestead law." The Wheat Trade. The market shows no change either for the better or worse, says the Com mercial Review. A few small parcels of wheat have changed hands. The gen eral disposition of holders is against marketing at present, many believing that there will be a more favorable mar ket during the coming month. The slow selling movement has no disturbing ef fects upon exporters, who are entirely indifferent whether they bny or not. Nearly all business on hand is cleaned up, and future shipments depend upon foreign values and local freights; when such a combination of conditions per mitting a profitable business is brought about, exporters can float cargoes, but at the moment shipping can be done only at a loss. ' FLAT FEET ARE THE THING. Use Wide Shoes and Yon Will Be Able to Walk Erectly. Not more than two men in. 100 walk erectly. This observation comes from a man who is a crank about the benefits of wide, flat shoes, says the New York Press. He declares he has made notes and knows what he is talking about. He thinks that the "two men in 100" wear the same kind of shoes that he wears, which look like those used for walking on water. This man also be lieves that the percentage of women who walk straight is so small that it is not worth considering. The whole trouble he attributes to shoes. He says men and women were never intended to wear shoes at all. It is his observation that when the foot is flattened out and the toes spread the natural movement of the body is to straighten itself. This he attributes to certain muscular action, and he has a chart to prove it. . When the foot is compressed by a shoe and the toes jammed together there is a sympathetic tension on the whole . muscular and nervous system (which draws the body forward or bends it. It has been noted in his calculations that persons in bathing costume on the beach walk much straighter. It is also a notable fact thathe Indian, who runs barefooted on the plains, has the proud est kind of a walk. He is as straight as an iron pole. WeU and Truly Bald. Over the triple doorway of the cathe dral of Milan there are three inscrip tions spanning the splendid arches. Over one is carved a "beautiful wreath of roses, and underneath is the legend: "All that pleases is but for a moment." Over another is sculptured a cross and these are the words underneath: "All that troubles is but for a moment." But underneath the great central en trance in the main aisle is the inscrip tion: "That only is important which is eternal." Dr. PIERCE'S PLEASANT.
