. _ , per rent, are cured by Dr. Fierce s Golden Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with copious expectoration (including tubereular matter), great loss of flesh and extreme emaciation and weakness. Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases reported to us as cured by “Golden Medical Discovery ” were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease ? You need not take our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home phvsicians, who have no interest whatever in misrepresenting them, and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against a trial of “Golden Medical Discovery,'* but who have been forced to confess that It surpasses, in curative power over this fatal malady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted. Nasty codliver oil and its filthy “emulsions’* and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to benefit, or had . nly seemed to benefit a little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hypophosphites had also been faithfully tried in vain. The photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and kindred maladies, have been skillfully reproduced in a book of 160 pages which will be mailed to you, on receipt of address and six cents in stamps.

A Cincinnati man describes a novel sight ho recently saw at a mi l devoted to making paper of pine tree pulp. I was invited to select a tree, which I did, and it was cut down for me in the morning. I watched it during the dav undergoing the various processes of paper making, and at 6 o'clock that evening the tree was paper. At midnight a portion of it was sufficiently dry to l>e taken to a printing office, and a few o' the copies of the next morning's paper were printed on this product, from a tree to a printed newspaper in twenty-so. r hours is probably the best time on record.

I WORK OF CONGRESS. THE WEEK'S DOINGS IN SENATE AND HOUSE. A Comprehensive Digest of the Proceedings in the Legislative Chambers at Washington—Matterg that Concern the People, Lawmakers at Labor. The legislative appropriation bill waa passed by the House Tuesday after the item placing clerks on the annual pay roll had been stricken out. The House NV ays and Means Committee discussed the gold bond plan and made decided progress toward an agreement. The House Committee on Pacific Roads decided to again report the Reilly bill, together with the proposition of the companies to pay the principal of the debt. Messrs. Morgan and Pugh protested in the Senate against the speech of Mr. Allen on the alleged election frauds in Alabama. A bill providing for the unlimited coinage of silver was favorably reported to the Senate from the Finance Committee. A bill providing for the issuance of $65,000,000 in gold bonds was presented to the Senate Wednesday by Mr. Vilas. A resolution authorizing Secretary Carlisle to sell gold bonds was favorably reported to the House from the Ways and Means Committee. A copy of the bond contract was also submitted. The House Thursday defeated the proposition of the President to issue gold bonds whereby $16.000,OX) in interest could have been saved. The measure providing for the construction of a new Federal building nt Chicago has been signed by President Cleveland. In response to a request Secretary Carlisle has sent to the Senate his figures on the treasury gold reserve and expenditures.

The Senate passed the postoffice appropriation bill Friday, Senate hostile amendments being defeated. The agricultural bill was taken up. Senator Chandler has introduced n bill to establish free American ports where foreign raw material may be manufactured. Strong opposition to the bill appropriating money to build more war ships was developed on the floor of the House. The House Committee on Commerce submitted a report favoring a deep waterway io connect the ocean and great lakes. The Navy Department is advised that the war ships Charleston and Norktown are rescuing American missionaries at Che Foo. In the Senate Saturday Mr. Wolcott charged the President with misstating the financial situation. Senators Cullom and Palmer appeared before the sub-commit-tee of the Senate Appropriation Committee and urged an amendment to the sundry civil bill providing an appropriation for the beginning of the work on the proposed new Chicago post office building. They have received a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury recommending an appropriation of $400,000 for beginning work on the new building, and of $200,000 for temporary quarters for the post office while the new building is in course of construction. The House voted to increase the navy with three battle ships and twelve torpedo bouts. The Administration’s bond contract was sharply criticised Monday in the Senate. Senator Gray vigorously defended the President. By a vote of 30 to 27 the Senate decided to take up the Jones free silver bill.

A bill for an international commission to investigate the condition of the seals was favorably reported to the House. House conferees refuse to agree to the Senate's Hawaiian cable amendment to the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill. The Curse of Scotland. Among the reasons why the nine of diamonds has been called the curse of Scotland. I think that the following has not been given: “Diamonds, nine of. called the curse of Scotland, from a Scotch member of Parliament, part of whose family arms Is the nine of diamonds, voting for the introduction of the malt tax Into Scotland.”—“Chronology; or, the Historian’s Companion,” fourth edition, by Thomas Tegg, London, 1526, p. 308 (Addenda). Could the arms of Daniel Campbell of Shawfield, member of Glasgow, contain the nine lozenges? Ills house was destroyed by a mob in 1727, because he was suspected of “ having given government information on the habits and statistics of Scotland necessary for the preparation of the malt tax, as well as of having exposed a system of evasion of duties in the Scots tobacco trade.”—See “History of Scotland," by John Hill Burton. In the index to the “History,” Campbell of Sbawfleld’s Christian name is given as David. There Is a George Catupbeii mentioned as having caused the nine of diamonds to be called the curse of Scotland because he stole nine diamonds out of the royal crown in the reign of Mary Stuart, in consequence of which all Scotland was taxed.—Notes and Queries.

Good Reason for Killing Him. Deschapelles, the greatest whistplayer the world has ever seen, had but one hand and was an advanced Republican. His manual dexterity was remarkable, and it was very interesting to watch him with his one hand—and that his left- collect the cards, sort them, play them, and gather them in tricks. Late in life, when he had developed into ardent republicanism, he was supposed to have been mixed up in some of the attempts at revolution which broke out in the earlier days of the reign of Louis Philippe. His papers were seized, and it was proved that he had draw n up a list of persons to be disposed of. Among them was an elderh acquaintance, so described: “Vatry (Alphie) to be guillotined. Reason citoyen inutile. Vatry is a bad whist-player.” A Clever Dog. ■ Mr. Stacy Marks’- anecdote of the money-finding dog. wh h heattributes to Lmdseer, is ave y prince among all stories of the kind. The dog's master, in the presence of a skeptical friend, hid a five pound note in the bole of a tree when the dog was paying him no attention. “Go, fetch!” he said, some time afterward, while returning by another road, without further explanation. The dog trotted off, and it was a few hours before he joined the two at home. As there were no signs of a note, the skeptical friend grew satirical. But the host opened the dog's mouth, and five sovereigns were concealed under his tongue. He had found the note, been to the banker's and exchanged it for gold. The Spectator.

A novel way to obtain a suitable name for their great, yes, wonderful new oats, has been adopted by the John A. Salzer Seed Co.

Do You Wish the Finest Bread and Cake? It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder ia the purest and strongest of all the baking powders. The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweetest, most delicious food. The strongest baking powder makes the lightest food. That baking powder which is both purest and strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome food. Why should not every housekeeper avail herself of the baking powder which will give her the best food with the least trouble ? Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and rende. the food unwholesome. Certain protection from alum baking powders can be had by declining to accept any substitute for the Royal, which is absolutely pure.
