Notwithstanding all he has done for
this country some American writers
have recently sought to prove that his
moral conduct would not stand the
high test of a comparison with that of
a New England Sunday school-teacher.
He was really so devoutly religious that
his signature is a cipher, said to mean
'Servate me, Xristus, Maria, Yosefus,

In his later years he suffered from
gout, ophthalmia and other maladies
which his many hardships brought on.

fond of having his linen, which was
very fine, and his gloves scented with
essences or more often with dried

taste and on principle; he may be
added to the list of great men who eon

vegetable diet und preferred water to
wine. He was scrupulously careful of

PATENTS!
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
There was never a time in the history
of our country when the demand for
inventions and improvements in the arts
nud sciences generally was so great as
dow. The oouveuiences of mankind in
the fiiotory and workshop, the household
aud on the farm, uh well as in ollieial
lite, require oonliutml accessions to tbe
appurtenance and impliments of each
in order to save labor, time aud expense.
The political change in the admimstra-
on government does not affeot tbe
progress of the American inventor, who
being on tbe alert, and ready to per
ceive the existiug deficiencies, does not
permit the affairs of government to de
ter him from quickly eonoeiving the
remedy to overcome existing discrepan
cies. Too great care cannot be exer
oised in onoosing a competent and skill
ful attorney to prepare and prosecute
an application for patent. Valuable in
tereslB,have been lost and destroyed in
innumerable instances by the employ
meut of incompetent oounsel, and es
pecially is this advioe applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this, class of attorneys
do so at imminent risk, as the breadth
ami strength of the patent is never con
sidered in view of a quick endeavor to
get an allowance aud obtain the fee.

THE BREECHES BUOY.
An Excellent Device for Resoulnff
the Shipwrecked.
Tta Appll.nf. I of Ort Hlp to tho
Daring Llf6 "rr ' lh !,,w Jr7
Coul-Ho It Ii Soot to
gluklnl kblpb
The stunly surfmen of Long Beach,
as they call the ribbon of sand south of
liarnejrat iulL't separating the waters of
the bay and the ocean, have made two
(fallant rescues in the past week with
the Lyle gun and the breeches buoy.
The opportunity to use these appli
ances is always welcomed, says the New
York Sun, because it means a fight with
the elements that stirs the blood and
strains the muscle. Whenever the
news that a ship is ashore is
telephoned from station to station
over the beach wires every surfman
within twenty miles says envious things
nbout the lucky patrolmen who are
called out to make the rescue. The ordi
nary routine of the bei"eh patrol is full
of hardship and monotonous in the ex
treme. A daring rescue makes talk for
the rest of the winter.
Considering the number of vessels
which have to pass it, the Xew Jersey
coast is the most dangerous on the con
tinent, and many ships go ashore on
the shelving sands there every winter.
Ninety-nine times out of a hundred,
however, the surf will admit the
launching of lifeboats, and the surf
men bring ashore the shipwrecked iu
this way. It is only when a great
storm is raging and the surf is so rough
as to baffle the skillful oarsmen that
the gun and breeches buoy are resorted
to. This does not happen very often.
When the patrol sees a vessel aground
or in danger he hurries to the station
and gives the alarm. The surfmen are
out in a jiffy. They always take all
their apparatus, so as to be ready for
any emergency. If the lifeboat cannot
be launched through the surf, they
bring out the Lyle gun. This is a small
brass cannon, which has a projectile fit
ting over the barrel like a sheath over a
a sword. To the projectile is fastened
one end of a stout cord. The gun is
aimed to throw the projectile over the
ship, and thus bring the cord within the
reach of the men on the wreck. It sel
dom requires more than two shots to
land the cord. The sailors then pull it
in and get hold of the rope to which it
is fastened. When the end of the rope
is hauled aboard it. is made fast to one
of the masts. Sleantiine the surfmen
are burying a sand anchor. This is a
great square of planking, whose sur
face grips the sand in which it is sunk.
To it the shore end of the rope is se
curely fastened.
Then comes the breeches buoy. This
consists of a great ungainly pair of
canvas trousers hung to a circular life
IN TIUS 1IREECUES BUOY.
preserver. It is suspended by stout
ropes from a pulley, which the surfmen
quickly rig upon the rope connecting
ship and shore in such a way that it
moves freely back and forth. A guy
line, one end of which was sent aboard
the ship with the rope, is now fastened
to the breeches buoy, and the surfmen
pull on a. line which starts the breeches
buoy traveling seaward. As soon as it
reaches the ship one of the shipwrecked
gets into the pair of canvas breeches,
sticking a leg through each capacious
hide, and grasping the life preserver,
which comes just under his armpits.
He does not need to be tied in, for his
scat is secure.
All being ready, the surfmen ashore
begin to haul in. The breeches buoy
rolls rapidly shoreward, suspended from
its hempen track. For n.ost of the dis
tance the man in the breeches is dang
ling above the water. When he reaches
the surf, though, he is bound to get a
ducking, lie holds his breath, takes a
fresh hold on the life preserver, and in
he goes. The next minute he is on the
beach, whore a dozen strong hands
reach out to pluck him out of his can
vas breeches. The buoy is sent straight
back for another, and so on until all
are rescued. A do.en men have been
brought ashore in this way by a single
breeches buoy in less than an hour.
It sometimes happens that a woman
is aboard the ship. She may be the
captain s wife. If the ship is a steamer,
there may be women passengers. The
Idea of getting into this pair of canvas
breeches may be repugnant to a woman,
but sue does not hesitate a second. Pull
ing her dress up around her, in she
steps as unhesitatingly as though she
were born to trousers. All she asks at
that moment is to get ashore.
There have been many devices for
rescuing the shipwrecked, including
the life car with which the stations on
our coast are provided, but no other
appliance is of such tried utility as the
breeches buoy.

a very prevalent disease. Thousands of men, of
all a trea, have at bo me time In life brought on
nervous debility and exhaustion, with organic
weakness, by over brain work, excesses, too ire
queut Indulgence or indiscretion and vicious
habits, aud it Is to theae that we offers remedy
that will, by its direct action upon the seat of the
disease, stop the drain and restore the patient to
vigorous health and strength.
Our method of introducing Prof. Harris' Pastille
treatment is one which commends itaelf to all
sensible persons for the reason that we supply it
upon their judgment of Its value. We auk of our
patrons nothing In the way of expense beyond a
postal card and a two cent postage stamp. The

Having satisfied those sending for trial packages
of our ability to benefit their sexual condition we
feel that they are more largely Interested than

Even then we do not attempt to rob them by de
manding high prices. On the contrary, we make
the prices as low as possible, and the same to all.
They are as follows: S3 for one month j $6 for
twomontns; 17 tor tnree montns.
These prices secure
the delivery of the
