Schall, with Meyer Bros, drug Co., St. Louis, Mo. “I dressed the wound, and applied Chamberlain’s Pain Balm freely. All pain ceased, and in a remarkable short time it healed without leaving a scar. For wounds, sprains, swellings and rheumatism I know of no medicine or prescription equal to it. I consider it a household necessity.” The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale by S. Hc- worth A Co. The Two.ninute Mark. “I shall live to see a two-minute horse.” Such was the prediction of one of the famous horsemen of New England, Moses Cheney. It was made thirty or forty years ago. At the time it was received with derision. Two-forty was about high-water mark then. The prophet who made this prophecy lived on several years beyond four score, and, unlike the saintly Simeon, died before the desire of his heart was realized ; but he was none tire less a true prophet of horse flesh. The two-minute point has l>een the goal of the pacer's ambition for several years, (the running time had been lower ed to 1.35t£). As one record after an other was lowered the hope dawned that sometime and somewhere the pacing or trotting record would be lowered to the two-minute point, much as, for a long time, dollar wheat has been the goal of cereal ambition. Steady and gradual has been the progress made. One horse after another lias lowered the record un til the two-minute point was so near that it seemed attainable. But some way Robert J., John R. Gentry, and even the marvelous Joe Patchen fell just short of attainment. It was a tantalizing case of “so near, yet so far.” Only a few days ago Patchen almost made it on the Chi cago turf.

For the past twenty-five years weather records have been made in Oregon, and this is the first year that rain has commenced to fall on August 30th and continued daily in the form of showers, as it has done this year. In 1884, at Portland, rain began on September 1st and continued to the 11th; in that year on the 1st, 2d, 6th and 7th there were only showers, the total for the entire time amounted to 2.88 inches, of which 1.86 fell on the 9th, 10th and 11th.

A rather Bhort, stout-built young girl in short dresses and wonderfully bright in mathematics attended the public schools at Harrisburg a good many years ago. The teacher had a class in Brooks’ Higher Arithmetic, a book one higher than the written arithmetic now used in the public schools, and about ten times as difficult. One day the teacher had some very critical visitors who were in doubt as to whether some of the young looking pupils could unravel those al most brain-splitting problems. The teacher said: “Gentlemen, pick out the most difficult example in the book ami give it to that little girl in short skirts and she will go to the black board and solve it.” They chose a problem, a “sinjer,” as the hoys expressed it. The young lady read it over a time or two silently, tip|>ed slowly up to the black board and began to figure. Little by little the board filled with neatly made figures while the visitors strained their thinking powers to follow the youthful mathematician. When hardly space was | left for another figure—away down low in the corner of the black board she wrote the answer to the complete grati fication of the teacher and the admira tion of the visitors.
