4 MRS. 31 15 TO FRR' EXT "One moment, Cliarles gotlen something!" cried -I have for pretty Mrs. Minton, darting from the side of her young hatband, as he stood in the hall, valise in hand, about to start for a week's travel. i , Upon reaching her room, she seized a bottle from a drawer in a bureau, and then, as her face lit with a smile at a happy thought, she seated herself and wrote a few lines upon a sheet of paper, which she placed in the bottle above the powder it contained. Itecorking it, she again rushed to her husband, and said , "It is time you paid attention to that cold of yours. It is becoming chronic catarrh. This may be a patent medi cine, but everybody recommends it, and I bought it for you yesterday. Now you will use it. Won't yon? The directions are within." "Certainly, love certainly. Thanks! Good-by!" ! Giving his wife a hurried but ardent embrace, Mr. Minton put the bottle m ms overcoat pocket and departed. "The silly darling!" he smilingly mur mured, as he turned the corner of the street. "If I should cut myself shaving, she'd wish to send for a surgeon: and now I'm loaded with a bottle because I sneezed at breakfast. I must rid myself of the incumbrance at once. As he thus communed with himself, advancing rapidly, he struck his valise against the legs of a gentleman before mm, and raising his head to apologize, saw an aged neighbor. f "Ah. Mr. Jobson. beer pardon! Am in a hurry to catch the train." ( "lltm. ug hi its ugn! no conse quence." "That's a bad couch of yours. I think I've something that will help you Highly recommended. Take it." ; The old centleman mechanically; ex tended his hand, and as he received ! the bottle, Mr. Minton bowed and passed on. The gut was scrutinized with doubt fnl sneer. f "Ugh! um! ha! So Minton has gone into the quack medicine business, had he? I m too old a bird to be caught with chaff. He shan't poison me with drugs. I ll stop it right here. Stop? No ugh! um! ba! I'll give it to my housekeeper; she believes in sucu stun. Mr. Jobson pocketed the bottle, and slowly shuffled toward his home. His honsekec-per-was profuse in her thanks as she was presented with the "perfect cure. I "I'm sure I'm much obleeged to j ye, Hor! It's the very thing for me sister's co igh. Has it made yer own betther, sorV" . 1 "I experience relief from it," said Mr. Jobson, with a cynical smile, "at this moment. f lm expectin me sister tins very niormn . We are both so much bleeged to ve ! ' i But the housekeeper's sister proved, on urrivttl, to have well-nigh recovered from her trouble, and was averse to try ing a new remedy. Being, however, a provident person, she accepted the gift, saying that it would be a good thing to have in the house. It was not destined to remain long there. The husband s notice was at tracted to it as he ate his lunchj the mantelpiece upon which it bad been placed being opoosite his seat at the table. "More purchases!" he RroAvlecL "What have you got there ? What's the use of throwing money away like that ? Who's sick now?" ' 1 "You're altogether too quick to find fault. It was given to me," responded the wife. . i "What is it, anyway ? Let's see it." "A mere cure for catarrh." i The man read the label and then put it into Ins pocket, saying, "I'll take it to the shop. It hasn': cost us anything, and I'll give it to the boss. It may do na some good in that way." - L "Unless you're sure he wants it,! you had better leave it where it is. ; "I know what I'm about," replied the man, as he arose to put on his coat. 1 ; "Mr. Dennis, I've heard you say there was no cure for catarrh. Now here's a remedy that's warranted perfect! If you'll try it I wish you'd take it from me. - j "Thanks ! It's the very medicine; I'm using now, Got bottles of it. Keep it, or give it to some one who has need of it. Thanks, all the same." ( "I'll take it !" cried a fellow-workman, with jocose eagerness. To him the bottle was handed. j "And now you've got it, what are you going to do with it ?" asked the giver. "You haven't got any catarrh." j ".. ' "No; but I've got children." t "Pretty nearly as bad, I suppose.' ' "Does he want to get rid of 'em ?' asked a third. Into the midst of the jesting party now came a small boy, carrying a tin pail. ' ! ; "Sorry I'm so late, father," he said to fie possessor of the bottle. . "All right, Jimmy; take this home the men here are afraid of it." S The boy took the medicine gingerly to his mother, with his father '9 words. That good woman thought, if therO was any joke in the matter, it was a jokej upon her, and seeing the medicine, flung it out of the window with an angry frown. j The bottle fell upon soft ground, I and was unbroken. As it shone in the sun it attracted the attention of a little girl ' passing down the street, who directed her grown sister's eyes to it, and was . thereupon requested to pick it up. j The young lady recognized it as a well advertised compound, and deemed it worthy of being deposited in the reticule she carried. As she laughingly exhib ited the prize upon her return 'home, a favorite servant begged ,for it. ! She knew a person who suffered greatly from the complaint it would cure, she said, and the medicine was given to her. The person for whom she intended it was a good looking coachman, who paid her considerable attention. He was, in fact, expected at the garden-gate that very afternoon. lie came and was given the bottle. He received it with an expression of the most grateful affection; but, although afflicted with a slight cold, he did . not feel impelled to use it. Indeed,! the false-hearted man thought, as he placed it in his breast pocket, that it would make a fine present for a handsome young cook of his acquaintance, whom he purposed next to visit. The cook was none other than the one employed by the lady first introduced to the reader of this story. i. Upon the following morning, as Mrs. Minton entered her kitchen, she saw the . bottle upon the dresser, and surprisedly took it up, for she recognized a peculi arity on it. , "How came this here, Susan?" ; she asked. "That's mine, mum." . ' Bat as the cook spoke, her mistress Had pulled the cork from the bottle, and saw the slip of paper she had the pre vious morning inserted. , "Susan, I gave this to my husband. How did you come by it?" "It was Mrs. Thompson a coachman eft it here, mum. If it's yours, you are welcome to it." "It certainly is mine. Susan. I wrote thia paper myself." "Mr. Minton must have dropped it, I suppose, mum. "That s it, of course. But as she wife read the words she had penned, and meditated in the pri vacy of her own room, she ceased to be lieve her gift had merely been lost. How could it have been dropped from the pocket in which it had been securely packed? And It had been her parting gift. She had dwelt with delight in her musings upon her husband's surprised smile as his eye fell upon her written uiiections. She deemed her expressions of affection therein as prettily and wit tily conceived. 1 lor four days more she would have to await his return. Mrs Minton shut the bottle up in a drawer with a sigh. The anxiously -awaited knock was at last heard, but it was accompanied by a sound which made the wife think at onca of her gift, and very shortly after her mutual embrace ask her husband if he had experienced no benefit from the medicine which she had given him At such a moment what would the pot man say? "It's all gone, but as you see he re plied and coughed. "I do not see that it is all gone, either couch or cure she returned, rising and giving him an indignant glance, and an instant thereafter held the bottle before his astonished gaze. Mr. Minton fell back in his chair with a confused laugh. "Ah, I see! Jobson has been here. "So you gave it to him, did you?" "I thought he had greater need than I." "Of this?" asked the wife, uncorking the bottle, and handing him the slip of paper. "This la meant for your head , But it should touca your Heart; A wife's love is in it. Though you far from her stray, If you take his eaca day. No other can win it." "Am I to conclude that I have lost you.' said Mr. Minton, as he hnished reading the verse, "am I to suppose that old J obson has gained you? "Mr. Jobson has not been here. "Then how comes it you have that bottle?' "I found it laying upon the kitchen dresser. But neither Mr. or Mrs. Min'on wil ever exactly know how the "cure" re turned to them unless they read these lines. Its singular reappearance in their household has had, however, the good result of making Mr. Minton confine himself to the strict truth when talking to his wife. She has only to say "bottle to curb him in the slightest tendency to exaggeration. Only the General Manager. At a station on one of the railroads leading out of Detroit the train had ar rived and departed, the other day, when the station agent, who had been in the place about three weeks, and was look ug for a call every hoar to come to De troit and take charge of the line, was ap proached by a quick, well-dressed man smoking a cigar, who asked: "Keep you pretty busy here?' "Yum," was the jerky reply. "Business on the increse?" "Yum," again. "Do you run this station?" asked the quiet man after a turn on the plat form. "Nobody else runs it!" growled the agent. Have ! you got a patent car .coupler "Oh, no." "I was going to tell yon to go to thunder with it if you had. Want specia freight rates, I suppose! "No, sir." "I don't give passes." "I don't want any." "Waiting for the next train?" "Not particularly." "Want to charter a car?" "No." The agent left him on the platform and entered his office and busied himself for half an hour, when the quiet man looked in on him and asked: "What's the salary of a position like this?" "That's my business," was the prompt reply. "What's the income of this station?" "Ask the baggagemen." "Your name is isn't it?" "Suppose it is?" "Oh, nothing much only I'm 'the general manager of the line, and I'd like to exchange cards with you!" Detroit Free Press. Plenty of Em grants.

"I want an agent," exclaimed a man, entering the Arkansaw Traveler office the other day, and looking around with an air of abrupt business. "I was told that you might put me onto an active bill poster and advance man." "Got a show on the road?" "No, sir, blame the show business. No money in it." "Been to the Holy Land and are now traveling with panoramic scenes, I sup pose?" "No, 6ir; I" killed a fellow the other day, and me and the other fellow's wife are going on a lecturing trip."

I in vite the sick, no matter what their diseases may be, to call anil investigate for themselves before aban doning all hopes, for it will cost you nothing. I give no encouragement unless there ts a fair prosp-ct of making a cure. I will endeavor to be candid in my opinion and rensonuide in my chargi s. I claim nt to cure everybody, but to cure all that can be cured. I have had twenty years' successful practice in the treatment of both ncule and chronic diseases. I have located in Portland, and all I ask is that yon give me a fair, unbiased trial, by which I hope to merit your con fidence, and give entire satisfnci ion to all suffering humanity. My reputation has been acquired by being candid with my patients, through j ears of successful practice, both in Europe and in this country, and studiously keeping up with the age. I know the cause and remedy needed, not by guesswork, but by years of experience. In my treatment of many diseases I make use of a new method of cure. The treatment is simple and the most feasible of all. There is no unpleasant sensation whatever attending the treatment. I invite all persons afflicted to visit and freely convince themselves, leav ing me to verify the a-sertkm that there has never existed a remedy so start'iug and immediate in its effects. I hese noted curative a ds. as handled in my practice, are endor ed and approved by the faculties of both Europe and America. The beneficial effects are perceptible almost from the Htiirt. (.'uses reeartled incurable, and of yeais standing, yield to its mild but wonderful influence. And in no case can the treat ment be attended w th the least danger, thereby tes tifying it to bo the most harmless agent in therapeu tics. Those who wish to apply for advice or treatment may confidently do so wit hout hesitation or diffidence, as the most timid may rely on that inviolable secrecy which has already proved the basis of an extensive professional reputation abroad. Cases can be treated by conespendence when a .er gonal interview in impossible, providing the patients will minutely detail all of tht-ir bodily miirniaties and mental disturbances written in a simple and natural style, and in accordance with the nec-ssary de-ails oi their own feelings. Oi.e personal interview, however, even with patients residing at a :l tance is highly de sirable when practicable, and will more than repay the patient the expense and trouble of a triple Port land. The advantage of even a visit are apparent and manifold. A single visit In most cases will enable the doctor to form an accurate opinion and note particulars which miclit be lost sight ol in mere correspondence, particularly when a microsi-opic and chemical analy sis is absolutely necessary. Patiei;ts not resid ing tn the city who wish to transact their business through the mails or by express can have the neces sary remedies gent to any address or left at any rail way station or coach office in Oregon or Washington Territory until called for, carefully packed and se curely sealed.
