ACROSS THE DEEP, TO THE FAR
- WEST,
On steamboats, cars and stage coaches, Hostet­
ter’s Stomach Bitters is carried as the most im­
portant item in the materia medica of the trav­
eling public. It deprives vitiated, brackish
wafer of its hurtful properties and execrable
flavor, counteracts the pernicious effects upon
the stomach of bad or indigestible food, reme­
dies cramps, heartburn and wind upon the
stomach. It is a fine defense against malarial
disorders, nullifies the effects of excessive heat,
cold and damp, relieves, sick headache, and is
an incomparable cure for costiveness and bil­
iousness. The fatigue of travel often tells most
disastrously upon invalids and convalescents,
occasionally to such an extent as to jeopardize
life. Persons in feeole health, apprehensive of
bad effects from travel, will, if provided with
the Bitters, be far less likely to have their fears
realized.
The world would be much better than it is if
men would live up to their obituaries.

THE CASTOR OIL TRUST.
“Hey, Jimmy, dey ain’t goin’ to be no
more castor oil gev out at der house,” a
newsboy yelled at his side partner in
front of the postoffice yesterday morn­
ing.
“Ah, der doost dey ain’t! Wy ain’t
der, huh?” answered the partner incred­
ulously.
“Because der’s a trust. I read in der
World jist now about de blokes what
makes it—see? Dey run up de price so
high dat no one but Jay Gould er Pat
Divver cud drink it—see? Now d’ old
woman’ll hafter leave go her holt an’
not give us no more. I t’ought it was
only a Barney somebody’d been'givin’
out, but I ast de young feller in de drug
store and he sez it’s right. I suppose d’
old woman’ll be dead sore she can’t soak
no more oil inter us, but it goes just d’
same—see?”.
■ To a reporter who asked for informa­
tion about the oil trust and its effects,
the first boy said: “Me an’ Jimmy lives
wid his fader’s old woman and pays $2 a
week board. All de rest of dim is dead
—see? She looks after us an’ does w’at’s
right, only she’s dead stuck on givin’ us
castor oil fer everythin’ that happens.
We’ve kicked many’s de time, but it
wasn’t no use. Now de price is shoved
too high fer her, an’ she’ll hafter leave us
alone. I say de bloke what put up de
trust is good people. He’s a lulu, dat’s
what he is. Der old woman meant well,
but she wuz dead ignorant—see? She
t’ought our stummicks wuz made out o’
machinery er somethin’ that needed oilin’
oncet in awhile. We told her she was
way off, but she would have it her way.
She’s out o’ de hunt now, dough.”
A clean, small and book laden boy on'
his way to school tarried long enough to
tell his little opinion of the castor oil
trust. He was about 4 feet 6 inches
high, and the most noticeable points
about him were his small black legs, his
bang and the polo cap above it. He
said: “My father winked at mother this
morning at breakfast when he read in
the paper about a castor oil trust that
was going to put up prices. She said
she didn’t care, because sulphur and mo­
lasses were just as good for us at this
time of year when there was no danger
of catching cold after it. I don’t know
what to think. I haven’t taken castor
oil since I was quite a little boy, so I
don’t remember much about it, except
that sometimes it wouldn’t stay down. I
think citrate of magnesia is more fun.
So does Speer, I don’t care much about
the castor oil trust, but I suppose little'
boys (this with much dignity) will be'
glad to know about it if its effect is to'
decrease the visible supply and increase
rates.”
When The World reporter came out
of the trance brought on by the four feet
six young man he saw that the only way
to do would be to ask a very small
American citizen. Thereupon he asked
the youngest boy he knew. But the lad
removed his right fist from his mouth,'
said “Goo—oo—oo—rh,” winked, put his
fist back and refused to say another
word, Nevertheless

there is a trust; it
is here to stay, and it will probably'

A National Flower.
Boston is voting on a national flower.
The votes are confined to trailing arbutus
and golden rod. But there are a dozen
more flowers quite as truly national and
worthy of adoption; among the rest are
the flower of Cornus Florida, the Ameri- ‘
can dogwood, or the flower of our superb i
magnolias, or that of the tulip tree.
Why not adopt the azalea, or mountain I
laurel? However, the golden rod will
do. very well, and we have no disposition
to cast a querulous vote. The arbutus is
very beautiful, but unknown over more
than half the country, and as much out
of the question as the climbing fern, or
any other localized beauty.—Exchange, i

A Model Farm.
The Georgia Southern railroad, which
runs out of Macon, Ga., has determined ,
to establish a model farm on its line as ,
an advertisement of that section’s trib­
utary resources. The farm is intended I
mainly to show what can be done on the
soil and in the climate of that - section.
But it is expected it will serve another
purpose, perhaps, more thoroughly, if
less conspicuously. It will be a model
farm for the farmers already living in
that section, and it will te:wh them new
ideas, afford them new incentives, lift
them out of the rut of one cropism upon

A New Repeating Gun.
Mr. Guimaraes, a Portuguese inventor, il
said to have made a new repeatinggun called
the Archimedes, which requires neither I

ment of extremely powerful springs, and is
said, to carry quite as far as any ordinary
army rifle.—Chicago Times.
Men More Liable to Consumption.
Dr. Mays has collected statistics for many
of the American cities, and also for other
countries,-and finds that, so far as they go,'
they establish the fact beyond a doubt that
in civilized life the male sex is more liable to
pulmonary consumption than the female.—

One Hundred Years in France.
France in 1789 and 1889 is curiously
contrasted in some figures recently given
to the French Statistical society. A cen­
tury ago land was worth £20 per hectare
(two and a half acres), against £68 at the
present day; the population of the whole
country has grown from 27,000,000 to
38,000,000; while Paris contained 600,000
inhabitants at the end of last century,
and at the last census (in 1886) counted
2,310,000. Then the journey from Paris
to Marseilles took thirteen days in the
diligence; now it can be covered in fifteen
hours by express train. Then a letter
cost 2Ld. from Paris to Versailles, and
7|d. to Marseilles. Cab fares were
cheaper a hundred years since, and a
good place at the theatre only cost a
franc; but bread was three time's as dear
as now.
A Gigantic Bridge.
The bridge across the Frith of Forth,
to take the place of the one whose de­
struction caused the death of
trainload of passengers some years since,
is now nearly completed. Several thou­
sand men have been employed on the
structure, whose size, can be partially
imagined from the fact that the iron­
work presents twelve acres of surface to
be painted and a force of 100 men will
be kept constantly employed keeping
the bridge in repair. The rails are laid
in deep troughs of iron, so that it is
absolutely impossible for a train to be
derailed under any ordinary circum­
stances. The topmost point of the
bridge is 370 feet above the water.

late King Ludwig, of Bavaria, in revers­
ing at his mansion the order of the hours

of dwelling temporarily or permanently

IMPORTANT TRADE NAME DECISION
Judge Thayer of the United States Circuit Court
at St. Louis has recently handed down an opinion
and granted a perpetual injunction against the
defendants in the case of the Hostetter Company
against the Bruggeman-Reinert Distilling Co.,
alias “Gold Spring Distilling Co., prohibiting
the advertising, manufacturing or selling of any
article of stomach bitters, either in bulk, by the
gallon or otherwise, or in any way .making use of
the name “ Hostetter” except in connection with
the sale of the genuine bitters, which are always
sold in hotties securely sealed; and also prohib­
iting the sale of any bitters in bulk, though the
name “Hostetter” be not used, hut the sugges­
tion made to the purchaser that he can put them
in the empty Hostetter bottles, and purchasers
would not discover the difference. His decision
supports the Hostetter Company in the exclusive
use of the name “Hostetter ’in connection with
either the manufacture or sale of stomach bitters
in any manner or form whatsoever, and firmly
establishes its ownership in the name “Hostet­
ter” as a “ T rade N ame .”
During file past fifteen years Professor
Richard D. 'Willoughby has been a char­
acter in Alaska well known among
whites and natives. As one of the early
settlers of old Fort- Wrangel, in which
his individuality was stamped among
the sturdy miners who frequented the
then important trading post, he has
grown with the far off territory, and is
today as much a part of Alaska’s history
as the totem pôles are identified with
the past lives of native chieftains. To
