Tfondcr of tlio f)-d Sea.
Ono of tho most interesting lakes or
Inland seas in tho world is tho Dead sea,
which has no visible outlet. It is not
mere fancy that, has clothed tho dead
sea in gloom. The desolate shores, with
scarcely a green thing in sight, uml scat
tered over with black stones and ragged
driftwood, form a fitting frame for tho
dark, sluggish waters, covered with n
poriotual mist, and brenking in slow,
heavy, sepulchral toned waves upon tho
beach. It seems as if the smoko of tho
wicked cities was yet ascending up to
heaven, and as if tho moan of their fear
ful sorrow would nover leavo that God
smitten valley.
It is a strange thing to 600 thoso waves,
not dancing along and sparkling tn tho
sun as other waves do, but moving with
measured melancholy, and sending to
the ear. as they break languidly upon
tho rock, only doleful sounds. "This is,
no doubt, owinc to tho ereat heaviness
of tho water, a fact well known, and
which wo amply verified in tho usual
way, ior, on attempting to swim, wo
went Heating about hue emntv casks.
This experiment was moro satisfactory
in its progress than in its results, which
wero n very unctuous skin and n most
pestiferous 6tinging of overy nerve, as if
wo had been lieu ten with nettles. Nor
was the water wo took into our mouth n
whit less vile than tho most nauseous
drugs of tho aothecary.
That llsh cannot live in this strom;
solution of bitumen and salt is too obvi
ous to uml proof; but to say that birds
cannot fly ovor it and live is one of tho
exaggerations of travelers, who orhaps
wero not, like out-helves, mi fortunate as
to seo a (lock of duckH reo6ing on tho

The ftrant Collection.
The Grant collection at Washington is
alone worth a fortune. In one case
there is a complete collection of gold
and silver coins of Japan which has a
wonderful numismatic value, as it is the
only complete set in existence, except

tho gold coins aro a quarter of an inch
thick and as big round as tho top of a
dinner pail. Seven of them cost $5,000,
and thero aro perhaps 100 coins in the

Grouting tlio Prince.
A good story is recorded in connec
tion with the Prince of Wales' visit to
Lord Brooke's country 6eat in Essex.
After opening tho Essex Agricultural
show at Chelmsford the prince and sev
eral otlier distinguished guests, includ
ing Lady Randolph Churchill, Baron
Hirs-ch, Col. Stanley Clark and Mr. Chap
lin, M. P., were entertained at Easton
lodge. On tho following day tho party
drove to Lord Braybrook's seat at And
ley End. Horses were changed en route
at tho rural village, Wimbish. While
this was being douo an elderly laborer
approached tho royal party, and address
ing tho prince said:
"Beg yer parding, sir, 1 should loike
to drink yer health; wo doan't see yer
ev'ry day."
Laughing heartily his royal highness
drew half a crown out of his pocket

Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
at 50 cents a bottle, to make
up $500.
One failure to cure would

Its makers profess to cure
" cold in the head," and even
chronic catarrh, and if they
fail they pay $500 for their
over-confidence,
Not in newspaper words
but in hard cash Think of
what confidence it takes to
put that in the papers and

"August
Flower"
Mrs. Sarah M. Black of Seneca,
Mo., during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: "My food did not seem to
strengthen me at all and my appe
tite was very variable. My face
was yellow, my head dull, and I had
such pains in my left side. Iu the
morning when I got up I would
have a flow of mucus in the mouth,
and a bad, bitter taste. Sometimes
my breath became short, and I had
such queer, tumbling, palpitating
sensations around the heart. I ached
all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back
of my limbs. It seemed to be worse
in the wet, cold weather of Winter
and Spring; and whenever the spells
came on, my feet and hands would
turn cold, and I could get no sleep
at all. I tried everywhere, and got
no relief before using August Flower
Then the change came. It has done
me a wonderful deal of good during
the time I have taken it and is work-
1 ing a complete cure."
