The three-year-old boy of J. A. John
eon, of Lynn Center, III., is subject to
attacks of croup. Mr. Johnson eays
he is sure that the timely use of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy, during a se
Tere attack, saved his boy's life. He is
in the drug business, a member of the
firm of Johnson Bros., of that place, and
they handle a great many patent med
icines for throat and lung diseases. He
bad all these to select from, and skilled
physicians to answer to his call, but se
lected this remedy for use in his own
home at a time when his boy's life was
in danger, because he knew it to be su
perior to any other, and famous the
country over tor its cures of the croup.
Mr. Johnson says this is the best selling
cough medicine they handle, and that it
gives splendid satisfaction in all cases.

ij Effect of Electricity on'Scrdi.
Experiments recently made at the
Massachusetts agricultural college tend
to prove that electricity exerts an ap
preciable influence on the germination
of seeds. When a current of the proper
etrens-th is applied it hastens the o-er-
mination and early growth of the
eprouts, but its influence diminishes
as the plant increases in size. Seeds
euDjected to a sing le application of elec
tricity show the effect for only a few
, ihoura, but if the current is applied
hourly it acts constantly, except that as
the plants mature the beneficial effect
is gradually lost. N. Y. Sun.

"GOT RID OF THE CATS.
Clever Plan of a New York Landlord
to Rid His PremiNes of Serenaders.
The inhabitants of a row of fine flat
houses in the Harlem district of New
York have for a long time past been,
greatly annoyed by nocturnal cat chor
uses, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch, In
desperation plans of poisoning and
shooting were discussed, but the owner
of the flats, who resided in one of them,
and was a law-abiding man, deter
mined to adopt a better plan, and have
some sport at the same time. Placing
tw.o traps on either side of the alley
ways adjoining his flats, he attached
wires to the traps, making a wire con
nection with an electric bell in his
Kcellar. When a frisky feline took the
bait, he came quickly on the scene
and put the quarry into a bag. Cap
tives were turned over to the S. P. C
A. and taken away in batches of from
three to ten every night. When about
70 of the unwelcome serenaders had
been transferred in this way, the strain
on the society proved too severe, and
the landlord was told to do his own
execution in future.
Ilis first idea was to electrocute the
animals, but he found that the appara
tus necessary was somewhat too elab
orate. Finally he took the simpler way
of inserting in a. barrel a tube con
nected with a gas jet. The cat was
dropped in, the lid was shut down,
the gas was turned on and the driver
of the dead wagon was told by tele
phone to call.
The neighborhood is now cleared of
cats, and the slumbers of the sleepers
in the flats are no longer disturbed.
THE MOST POPULAR WOMAN.
Doll- MadtMOn's Frank, Cordial Man
ner, and Ineennoiui Demeanor.
No woman is more closely or fondly
associated with the white house than
Dolly Madison, writes Clifford How
ard of "When Dolly Madison saved the
Declaration of Independence," in La
dies' Home Journal. During the eight
j-ears that her husband occupied the
position of secretary of state . under
Jefferson's administration she was al
most as frequently called upon to do
the honors, at the receptions and levees
at the president's house as in her own
home, where she entertained in a do
lightful and sumptuous manner. She
was, therefore, fully prepared for the
duties that devolved upon her as mis
tress of the white house upon the elec
tion ofMr. Madison to the presidency.
In the graceful and skillful perform
ance of her delicate task she gained
the admiration of everyone, and added
to the popularity she had already won
both for herself and her husband.
Through the potent influence of her,
personal charms, to which were added
a frank and cordial manner, a sweet,
ingenuous demeanor, and the happy
faculty of adapting herself to the views
of those about her, she readily became
a general favorite. Before her reign
at the white house was concluded she
was the most popular woman in the
United States. 1
Birds Strangely Concealed.
Mr. A. H. Thayer, an artist, believes
he has discovered that the light color
of the under parts of birds and small
mammals serves to conceal them from
their enemies. At a recent meeting of
the American Ornithologists union he
proved by experiments that an object
nearly of the color of the ground, like
a potato, is very conspicuous when
placed a few Inches above the soil and
viewed from a little distance. But
when the under side is painted white
and gradually shaded into the color of
the upper part, the object disappears
by blending with the ground; the
whiteness beneath counteracts the ef
fect of the shadow of the body.
