Sick Headache

Permanently Cured

“I was troubled, a long time, with sick headache. It was usually accompanied with severe pains in the temples and sickness at the stomach. I tried a good many remedies recommended for this complaint; hut it was not until I began taking AYER’S , Tills that I received anything like permanent benefit. A single box of these pills did the work for me, and I am now a well man.” 11. IIvtciiinos, l ast Auburn, Mo.

success as a dramatist. I once asked j pleted, it would be for the benefit of

him why he had not taken up this ‘‘line" seriously, and I think he made the excuse—it was long ago, many years before his death—that he had not time, taste or patience. Tho real reason, no doubt, was that he could not work without expanding, and could not “carve heads upon a cherry stone.” A literary friend, who has his “Boz" at his fingers' ends, has with great acuteness pointed out to me that Nicholas Nickleby was a genuine “Adclphi walking gentleman;” his manner, heroic bursts, protection of his sister, bearding of Ralph, etc., were all elements in the Adclphi melodrama. Ralph was a regular stage villain. That his works are all dramatic and conceived in the true spirit of the stage is plain from the vast list of adaptations. Each story has been adapted again and again, and will bear the process admirably. One method for winding up his plot, to which he was excessively partial, was the unmasking of the villain owing tc the betrayal of some confederate. The parties are generally brought together in a room by tho more virtuous mem bers; tho confederate then emerges from his concealment and tells a long story of villainy. We have this denouement first in "Oliver Twist," where Monks makes his revelations. In "Nickleby” Ralph is confronted with the man Snawley and Squeers. In the ‘‘Old Curiosity Shop” Quilp is similarly exposed. In “Barnaby Rudge,” Haredale forces his herditary enemy tc make revelations. In ‘‘Chuzzlewit,’ 1 Jonas is confronted with another betrayer. In “Copperfield,” Uriah Ileep is denounced and exposed by Sir. Micawber. In “Bleak 1 louse,” Lady Dedlock is similarly tracked. In nearly all the cases the guilty person goes of!

How a Dog Becuuio a Teetotaler. A lady at Westgate-on-Sea tells a remarkable anecdote of a dog who was cured of its evil habit of love for liquor. Some misiyiievous pe.'sous Lad so often given to her father’s great dog bits of broad soaked in beer that Neptune grew fond of the artificial dainty. One day when a large party was returning from a picnic, Nep was put on the boxseat beside the driver of the carriage, as he seemed too tired to run home all the way. Ho must have drunk some liquor at the feast, for ou the road he fell from the carriage to the ground. No bones were broken, though he must have got a severe shake and a fright in the fall. The result was that Nep never once after that day could be induced to touch bread soaked with liquor, turning from it with loathing and contempt, the very smell of it being repulsive. In fact, he became a teetotaler.

his enemies, the barbarians, and prob ably entangle the nation in foreign com

plications.

The work was subsequently completed by Ptolemy II. and afterward restored by Trajan. The grand canal was stated as being far superior to any other canal in the known world. Its breadth was such that two galleys abreast could be navigated on it, and by it the riches and merchandise of the east were conveyed from the Red sea to the Nile, and thence to the Mediterranean. Strong opposition was raised during the construction, ou the ground that the land through which it passed being below the level of the Red sea. the canal would be the means of flooding it. To overcome this difiiculty a dam, or sluice, was placed across it, with doors which opened to give passage to the vessels, and then were closed again. After the lapse of several centuries this canal was allowed to go to ruin, but traces of it still remain.

LESSONS TO SWEARERS.

There are various things that contribute to make a reception successful in Washington. One of the most unexpected and curious factors to this end was developed at the farewell reception given by Representative White, of Ohio, a ft»v days before the adjournment of congress. Representative and Mrs. White had sent out invitetions to nearly everybody in official circles

Influence of the Earth’* Motion on thn

Direction of Wind*.

Suppose a railroad train at first stationary, says the Chautnr.quan. A traveler fires a shot toward some exterior object; it will require, say. two seconds for the ball to reach the object. Imagine next the train moving at the rate of thirty feet a second. The traveler aims at the object the instant he is opposite it; but the ball, in addition to the impulsion which he has communi-

According to Sen son. Few people realize the necessity of varying the clothing according to the temperature, and many a woman wears a sealskin sacque or a heavy wrap in weather which demands nothing warmer than a coat of light cloth. It was the duke of Wellington who was credited with possessing fourteen overcoats, from which he select, u each day tho one best suited to the prevailing temperature, and perhaps his carefulness in this matter had much to do with the fact that he lived to the advanced age of eighty-four.

Mild Ileproof Administered to Profane Persons. The eccentric George Francis Train, tvhile traveling in a parlor car, was annoyed by the many oaths with which several men interlarded their conversation. Determined to rebuke them, he joined in tlie talk, exclaiming again and again: “Shovel, tongs and poker!” "Mr. Train,” said one of the men at last, wearied with the recurring exclamation, “why do you use that nonsensical phrase?” “That is my way of swearing,” answered Train; “and it is no more nonsensical and far less blasphemous than your oaths. I'll quit if you will." There was no more swearing during the journey. The Christian describes another lesson given to a swearing student; A late distinguished president of one of our •western colleges was one day walking near the college, with his slow and noiseless step, when a youth, not observing his approach, while engaged in cutting wood, began to swear profanely in his vexation. Tho doctor stepped up and said; “Give me the ax,” and then quietly chopped the stick of wood. Returning the ax to tho young man. he said in his peculiar manner: "You see now the wood can be cut without swearing."

Senator White, of California; Associate Justice White, of the supreme court, or Representative White, of Ohio. When the guests arrived the general misunderstanding which bad prevailed was the amusing incident of tlie evening. Representative and Mrs. White were not very well known in official circle-, the health of the former having made it necessary that he should take a trip abroad, which consumed a large portion of the last session of the Fiftythird congress. So it was that tlie guests generally expected to find the giver of the reception to be either tho

senator or the associate justice.

Representative White enjoyed his mammoth reception immensely. At one time in the evening, when the three officials bearing the same name were gathered together, he thanked both his namesakes for b.aving so largely contributed to the success of the reception. “I have all the' friends of the White family here,” he remarked. “Some of the guests may have been

disappointed, but I am not.”

THE INK 13 FADING AWAY.

In These Degenerate Days Le^al Documents Are Not Written to Last Long. “Some of the earlier ninety-nine-year leases made in this city were written in inks that are in great danger of fading out long before the lease expires,” said a microseopist and expert in handwriting. “There is not an ink on tho market but will fade seriously in thirty 3'ears. My business requires me to be informed, and I purchase samples of every ink I hear of and submit them to microscfipic and chemical examination. I base what I have said on the results reached in those examinations. The inks made thirty or forty years ago were not so good as those of the preceding three centuries, for many documents written in the latter are extant, the lines in which are clear and bright. The inks of the present day are poorer than those of a generation back, because in this age of adulteration nothing escapes tne adulterator. The same ingredients are used, but In a weakened form. Iron and aniline dyes are the basis of most inks. Where iron is used, time produces a process of corrosion and oxidation gradually fades to a pale brown. The logwood disappears. If documents written in these inks are kept in vaults where ventilation is bad. certain gases that are developed by the conditions act directly on the inks and hasten their disappearance. If in the middle of the next century a future biographer wants to examine tho correspondence of anyone living to-day, it isn't unlikely he will find in it pieces of paper that once was covered with writing which has passed away, leaving only pale faint lines. As to leases, probably there is some understanding of these facts, for instruments that have a long time to run are now printed.”

CHINESE VIRTUOSOG.

Why Ho Was Silent. A physician describes, in the Atlanta Journal, a remarkable case of a patient’s confidence in ilia physician; When I was a student in Philadelphia I had a patient, an Irishman, with a broken leg. When the plaster bandage was removed and a lighter one put in its place I noticed that one of the pins went in with great difficulty and I could not understand it. A week afterward, in removing this pin, I found that it had stuck hard and fast, and I was forced to remove it with the forceps. What was my astonishment, on making an examination, to find that the pin had been run through the skin twice instead of through the cloth. “Why,” Fat," said I, "didn’t you know that pin was sticking in you?” “To he shure I did," replied Fat, “but I thought you knowed your business, so 1 hilt me tongue."

Gentlemen Who Devote Their Lives to Collecting Curios. You must know that the Chinese is far more commonly virtuoso than we. And a Chinese collector is a real connoisseur. He has no idea of beauty— except to eye it suspiciously as probably of Japanese or other foreign origin; all he worships is age. And—mark this most carious trait—antiques of his own country only. What a conservatism to boast of this! The Chinese scholar and virtuoso has the profoundest admiration for his own country’s ancient literature and art. He will not deign to have anything foreign or new on his shelves. I think this is somewhat of a rebuke to us, hunting for relics of every country but our own. It puts us on the stand of nouveaux riches. Don’t think, says Temple Bar, that a Chinaman spends nothing on his collection. He will outbid the vulgarest millionaire in the world for a genuine old bronze or porcelain. Ills collection is not built up In a day by wholesale commissions given to dealers. His is bought piece by piece as opportunity and finances allow. The collection made by a single man’s lifetime is nothing. You will see pieces in his catalogue bought by father and grandfather, and rei jte ancestors. They are heirlooms. They are passed down from father to son. They are the mark of education and noble birth, because the only nobility there is education and official rank, and noble birth is being the descendants of ancestors who have held office and taken degrees. An heirloom of a choice hit of porcelain proves education and wealth in the purchaser. Does this not make you feel rather new with your two-penny fans and plates on tho wall?

ChlnttRo Speech.

In the Chinese language the meaning j depends more on the tone in which the I word is spoken than on the word itself. | The same word may have a dozen dif- ' ferent meanings, according to the tone in which it is spoken. This fact not

different rates of velocity according to the position which they oceuyy. At the poles tho velocity is nothing; it increases regularly to the equator, where it reaches the enormous rate of 1,629 feet a second. Let us take for consideration two places in our country (France)—Paris and Dunkirk. While tho Parisian, affected by the movement of tho earth, passes through about 1,000 feet, the inhabitant of Dunkirk travels only about

963 feet.

Let us imagine now at Paris a wind from tho south that is blowing towards Dunkirk, which is almost directly nortli from Paris. As Paris moves from west to east at the rate of thirty-seven feet a second faster than does Dunkirk, the wind from tho south at Paris will be like the ball fired from the moving train; it will be deviated towards the east, that is, towards its right. From being a south wind, which it was at Paris, it will become a southwest wind and it will roach Liege or Cologne in stead of Dunkirk, which it would have reached had the earth been motionless. Thus all winds arc turned from their first direction, and in the northern hemisphere this deviation is always toward the right, while in the southern hemisphere it is toward tho left.

EUGENIE’S FATHER CONFESSOR.

A Wizened Little Man Who Wat Once a Courted Church Dignitary. An Austrian clerical paper gives an interesting account of a man who, though once in the foreground of the most brilliant court in Europe and still living, has entirely disappeared from public notice. The writer saw him at M. de Lcsseps’ funeral—a pale, wizened little man with snow-white hair and heard. This man is Bernard Bauer, for a long time a bishop, father confessor to Empress Eugenie and a famous preacher. He pronounced the blessing on the Suez canal. He is by birth a Hebrew and a Hungarian. He took part in the Vienna revolution, was publicly embraced for his bravery hy Kossuth, then became a painter and finally allowed Father Augustine, who was no other than the celebrated pianist, Herman Cohen, to convert him to Catholicism. As Father Maria Bernard he delivered his famous sermons in Paris, which the empress attended, lie was then particularly handsome, his pale face framed by a dark beard, his blue eyes full of expression. What was admired more than all else was the use he made of ins delicate, beautifully-formed hands. The women raved of him. and he soon addressed all his sermons to them alone. The empress named him her confessor, and to please her he was made a bishop. He became so much the fashion that had he not defended himself he might have spent tho twenty-four hours in the confessional. When the republic succeeded the empire he gave up his priesthood and has since quietly enjoyed life.

One IToman's Burglar Proof Barricade. A spinster, who is of a timid disposition, was asked recently how she dare to live alone as she did. “I haven’t muck faith in locks and keys, nor in bolts and bars,” she replied. “I know that a genuine burglar would snap his fingers at any of them. But I have a better protection than any of those, or than a dog that might be poisoned, or an alarm which I might have no opportunity to sound. My own sleepingroom is the only one I barricade in this manner, but I defy the housebreaker to get iu there. Every night I roll my heavy bed against the locked door, or else t pull the chiffonier over there. No one outside could possibly push it to one side. And no one could get in unless he did. So I feel amply protected. 1 haven't a patent on this burglar-proof arrangement.”

Difference Ifetween Hull and Sleet. We are apt to speak of hail and sleet as being very similar phenomena, but, in fvti'C, they are widely different. True, hailstones are composed of alternate concentric layers of hard opaque and transparent ice. In the latitude of Missouri hail seldom fails except in summer. Sleet, on the contrary, always falls in winter or late fall or early sprincr, and is composed of minute particles of transparent ice. It is caused by rain falling from a high, warm cloud, which has a stratum of cold air lying directly beneath us a rule, but this cold air stratum may be immediately above the earth’s surface. In this event it will be noticed that there is a mixture of rain and ice particles which fall and give everything an icy coating.

“Squeaky shoes,” said Mr. Gratebar, “I don't like; but I rather admire a squeaky rocking-chair, if it is old and comfortable.
