A Fiendish Attack. An attack was lately made on C F. Collier of Cherokee, lowa, that nearly proved fatal. It came through Ids kidneys. His back got so lame he could not stoop without great pain, nor sit in a chair except propperl by cushions. No remedy helped him until he tried Electric Bitters which effected such a wonderful change that he writes that he feels like a new man. This marvelous medicine cures backache and kidney trouble, purifies the blood and builds up your health.

The Cosmopolitan fi r October is full of entertaining fiction. Thomas A. Janvier, for some time not seen in the magazines, reappears in the Cosmopolitan with a Mexican story of love and adventure, “Forfeit to the Gods.” Bret Harte, whose “condensed novels" won him so much fame, contributes a side splitting parody of Hall Caine’s “The Christian.” Irving Bacheller writes a short sketch of a little New York inn: “The Shadow of happiness,” E. W. Kemble tells a short humorous story of “How the Buzzards worked a Spell,” while Clara Morrison’s love story reveols her as an accomplished writer, capable of analyzing and sympathizing with man’s deepest emotions.

The Review of Reviews, of * London, said that the article showed “rare sympathy, rarer penetration and rarest knowledge of woman’s na- | ture.” In the Cosmopolitan for Octo- < ber the same author discusses with I brilliance and keenness “What Men | Like in Women.” There are few in j all the world who would not care to i possess the pass ports to a man’s or I woman’s affection, and it is doubtful ; if truer words were ever written about i a problem which has occupied the j world from the earliest days of which < there is any record than those of this ( pointed little essay.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the onlv positive cure uou known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hail’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the dis ease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

It is related that recently a good Methodist and a good Baptist clergyman got to talking with each other at a church social. “I dreamed I was in heaven and saw no Baptists there.” remarked the Methodist. "I inquired where they all were and was told they hadn't arrrived yet, but were coming by water.” “I dreamed that I was in heaven" replied the Baptist, “and saw no methodists there. Upon inquiry I was told that they were all outside the walls on six months probation.” A typical South African Store. O. R. Larson of Bay Villa, Sundays River, Cape Colonv. conducts a store ty| ical of South Africa, at which can be purchased anything from the proverbial “needle to an anchor.” This store is situated in a valley nine miles from the nearest railway station and twenty-five miles from the nearest town. Mr. Larson says: “I am favored with the custom of farmers within a radius of thirty miles, to many of whom I have supplied Chamberlain’s remedies. All testify to their value in a household where a doctor’s advice is almost out of the question. Within one mile of my store the population is perhaps sixty. Os these within the past twelve months, no less thon fourteen have been absolutely cured by Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. This must surely be a record.” For sale by Holthouae, Callow & Co. o In the tense language of the theatrical advance agent, “Old Arkansas" is a corker. Like the eat, it has more than nine lives, and like the feline in the song, it always comes back. Jumping with a bound into popularity, it has maintained its hold upon the public with a grip that there seems no possibility of breaking. It has distanced all its rivals and bears the proud distinction of being the only big scenic , -eduction worthy of the name liefore the public. A strong, compact play, possessing those delicate touches of pathos and humor and all the virile force and vigor of the drama, it ought to run on indefinitely. Another excellent reason may be given for its success its owner now possesses the most elalioiate and expensive stage outfit of any company traveling. No attempt has ls*en made to cheapen the attraction by the engagement of incompetent actors. The old standard of excellence is religiously maintained and the result is shown in the continued loyalty of the supporters. “Old Arkansaw” is a play of many parts, and will lie seen in this city at an early date.

One Way to Boil a Ham. The following Is the recipe of the fflS mous John Chamberlin of Washington for boiling a ham: “To boil a ham a la Chamberlin, the night before put the ham in a tub of cold water, fleshy part downward, skill part up. Next morning put the Lam in a large kettle or pot of cold water to boil. Let file water get hot gradually and continue to cook the ham in a slow boil, scarcely more than a simmer. At the end <;f five hours take the ham out, throw tiic water out of the pct nml till it with fresh col l water. But the ham back immediately and let it simmer or boil slowly live hours more. Then add, according to the size of your purse, a gallon of vinegar cr a gallon of claret or burgundy or champagne; then s':"nier or boil for three hours more. 7 ~i:i take the ham off, skin it and put in a cool place. Next morning trim It and eat when you are ready. "To prevent the ham from tearing or the water suddenly Polling too fast it is always safe to tew a piece of cotton cloth tightly around the ham so as to lit as close as a glove. Tills will keep the meat I'.im and guard against the neglect of the cook la letting the water boil too fast.”—New York Herald. A Clever Woman's Answer. . “Do you not consider your husband the most graceless sinner in existence?” This o.uestion was asked the wife of a gay Lothario by a rival for his affections while playing a game called "candor.” The stillness became intense and every pair of eyes grew rounder as those present looked from one woman to the other. It was the husband's voice that broke the silence. "Your question is out of order, Beatrice.” he said quietly. "It is a rule laid down in courts of law that a woman is not required to testify against her husband.” In ti e confusion that followed as the game broke up the man sought his wife's side. "What should you have replied to the query of the lair Beatrice If 1 had not come to your rescue so neatly?” he demanded. "I should have said you were a sin ner, yes, but a graceful rather than a graceless one.' —Lippincott's. Slow bnt Inexorable Justice. In October, 1900, Pietro Giaconi and Marie Bonelli were tried at Koine on a charge of sextuple murder by poisoning committed 31 years before. In England Eugene Aram was hanged for the murder of Clarke 14 years after the offense. A man named Horne was executed for the murder of his child in the eighteenth century no less than 35 years after the offense. There s also the well known case of Governor Wall, who was executed in 1802 for a murder committed in 1782. Sherward was hanged at Norwich for the murder of his wife after a lapse of 20 years. But Sir Fltzjames Stephens recalls what is the most remarkable case ol all. He prosecuted as counsel for the crown In 1863 a man who was charged with stealing a leaf from a parish register GO years before—that is, in 1303. In this ease the prisoner was acquitted. The Strencth of n Shark. Given special advantages, such as that of holding the end of a stout rope at the other extremity of which is a hook fixed In a shark's mouth, man may, with the assistance of a number of his fellows, have the best of the shark. But alone and in the water the advantage is wholly and absolutely the other way, and the strongest swimmer and the bravest heart fail when the tyrant of the sea seeks to make his acquaintance. The shark is a creature gifted with great strength, a savage temper, dogged perseverance and exceptional power of jaw. The lion and tiger may mangle, the crocodile may lacerate, the bulldog may hold fast—the shark alone of living creatures possesses the power of nipping on.' a human limb at a clean bite. Gender of the Sword. Among the many curious notions obtaining among the different races using the sword may be noted the gender of the weapon. In the north of Europe it was either masculine, as in Britain, or neuter, as in Germany, while in the south it was uniformly feminine. Its force and cruelty appealed to the northern mind. Its grace and elegance attracted the warriors of the sunny south. It typified to the one strength, to the other dignity. Exchange. Liberal with Money.
