Cod-liver oil is something more than a fat. Its peculiar

action depends on a number of substances, among which might be mentioned iodine and phosphorus. There can be no substitute for cod-liver oil, because there is no other oil known which has in natural combination with it such a

large number of valuable medicinal agents.

Smulsicru

of Cod-liver Oil, with the hypophosphites contains the whole oil, with its natural pt /perties, and in a thoroughly emulsified or digested condition. The hypophosphites increase the appetite and impart strength to the nervous system. This combination has marked curative properties in a number of diseases of the skin and scalp, to which scrofulous persons are peculiarly liable. Such diseases as chronic eczema, ringworm, and other skin affections, are often quickly cured by the constitutional effects following the useof Scott’s Kmulsion. *• ctm and $1 a bottle.

Run Down in Health. Hamlet, Ind. Feb. 9, 1896.—I was ran down In health and my memory was lost and my strength greatly renduced caused by overwork.

Ilarbers Require Strong Nerves and Will to Resist Muff nolle Influence. “Did you ever know," said a Ninth street barber to a Philadelphia Record man, “that certain men who come into this shop to be shaved exert a queer hypnotic influence over one or more of the barbers? It’s a fact. Now, there’s a man over there nt thebe'.t chair but one. He doesn't look like a nervous fellow, does he? No! Well, he isn’t nervous as a rule, but there’s a certain man-nbout-town whose very appearance in the doorway sets that man shivering: like a man in a fit. He could no rporo shave that particular customer than fly. Another man who used to work in this shop a couple of years a^o was similarly affected, but to a greater legree, by a prominent business man, a Mr. B . Whenever M r. B came into the shop the barber would grow deathly pale and quiver spasmodically. It frequently compelled him to knock off work for a whole day, and finally the boss had to discharge him. Pact! Here’s another funny thing. Did you ever know that the average barber hates nothing so much as to have to shave a man’s upjier lip? I don't know why it is, but I feel that way myself. I’d rather lose a day’s pay than shave . off a man’s mustache, and when a i smooth-faced man comes into tins shop j you oujrht to see the way each of us ‘soldiers ’ and “monkeys’ around, so ;is to keep him from getting in our chairs.”

CROSS-EYED HEADLIGHTS. New Idea for I P-htlng Itallroad Tract* on a Dark Night. A new thing in track lighting has Ivct. put into service on the New York New Haven & Hartford railroad on the new “air line flyer” between New Ybrk and Boston, says the Boston Transcript. It is the cross-eyed headlight, an invention of Col. N. H. Heft, of the electrical department, and it is said to be such a success that it will be supplied as speedily as possible to all through fast trains on the road that run in the night. Superintendent Ostrander explains tiie use of the two headlights, i\hich art’ set “cross-eyed,” or precisely as the eyes are set in some crosseyed persons. They axe set thus so that each will throw a light across the other’s rays. The light on the right hand side is thrown over the left, and that on the left over the right. It has been found that this arrangement is of great advantage in throwing a light ; around a curve. The single headlight | hitherto in use shines straight ahead when the locomotive is turningn curve. Die fields, or whatever is alongside of the tracks upon which the train is dashing, are illuminated, but tho rails ahead for the moment are in total darkness. With the two lights set it makes no 1 difference which way the curve turns, for one or theotherof the headlights illuminates the pathway. The Golden Opportunity. Now is the time to viait the South and inj vestigate for .vourself it* vast resources and I its glorious climate. There is no doubt but i what the tide has turned Southward.

renders a lighter make impracticable, unless the machines are of 1 high grade and wfth a wide base. The duty on bicycles is insignificant, not being

manufactured here.

“The history of the bicycle in Greece is interesting. '1 lie first machine was brought here many years ago by the king. It was an all-wood affair, front driving, of the variety known as ‘boneshaker.’ Naturally, his majesty did not appear in public on the streets, as bicycles were regarded by the natives as supernatural and uncanny for many years. The pioneer bicyclists of Greece were subjected to 11.any inconveniences and even dangers. They were hooted and laughed at on the streets of Athens, and were sometimes stoned and tumbled from their wheels. At the present day the rustic generally crosses himself and utters a prayer

when a bicycle posses him.

"Bicycling may be said to have commenced here in earnest about eight years ago with the founding of several clubs and the adoption of the wheel as t.n amusement by leading Greeks. It is safe to predict a craze iu the near future, as the royal family and many of the leading diplomats are now enthusiasts. The crown prince and the Kuglish, American ind German ministers, among others, may be seen 01 the streets every day mounted upon wheels. Such leadership bus more weight in Greece than it would have in America. Last year one of the dealers here brought over live wheels of a celebrated American ty[>e from New York. He had no difficulty in selling them immediately at 1,000 drachmas apiece. They were lighter than the English makes ordinarily used here, and very much admired. No attempt has since his'n made by American makers to

place wheels in Athens.

“Many agreeable excursions can bo ninde with the wheel, among them from Athens to Phalerum, to the Piereus, to the king's pro|ierty at Tutoi toMarathon,to Thebes and other places Many long trips are possible; for ex ample, there is n magnificent road skirting the sea all the way to Corinth. After stopping a day or two to visit the ancient Acropolis one may continue the journey to Nauplia, the capital of Greece under Qtho, taking in the ruins of Mycenae, Argos and Tyreus on the way. The scenery of such a trip is magnificent beyond description, and the points touched at are of surpassing historical interest. The climate is favorable for bicycling, t here being a wet and a dry season, so that one knows be fore starting what weather ioexpect.” 1 he revival of the Olympian games, which occurs in April, will include bicycle races, and Consul Horton thinks American wheelmakers would find it advantageous to have a representative present.—Boston Herald.

One Woman'* Search for Iter Anrcwtor*

KcHtilfeti In Disappointment.

She had lieen invited to be present at the reception of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and her heart glowed with patriotism as she beheld the American flags, shields, coats ot arms and streamers with which the room was decorated. The speeches added to her exaltation, and she felt the blood of fighting sires running like

fire through her veins.

The woman in tho stunning chinchilla cape and blue velvet gown, who really didn’t “look as though she had ever had any ancestors,’’ had discovered a friend in the dowdy woman in gray and the outsider heard her say: “Oh, yes; I belong. My children can trace their ancestry back through five lines to the Norman conquest." A little gasp from the recipient of this information broke the awestruck |«iuse, and then, regaining her breath, tiie dowdy woman, with her nose top tilted, said: “They are fortunate indeed. We are proud of our two linen! tracings to the days of King Arthur; but only claim our ancestry back to the revolution, since we live in a re-

publican country.”

The spirit of envy devoured the woman who was not a “Daughter.” The very next day she put into effect her resolution to find out the names of her revolutionary ancestors, for she was assured she must have had them. For three days she searched records, and the fourth day she searched agi*in, and “ran t hem to earth.” “James Brown who married Maria, daughter of Jonas and Ellen Smith,” dated back to 17tVJ for the time of his marriage, and she sighed a great sigh of relief. But— alas for ambition—he fought on the tory side!—N. Y. Herald.

ROMANCE ON THE ICE. KetftHon* for tho CooluoHg That Fsiftt* liot tv eon Two lirooklyn Lovers. Stic was a poor skater, she said, but her escort, who thought she was just about perfect iu everything else, insisted that she could skate well enough for anybody’s criticism and that he wasn’t much of a skater himself, so they went to the jNirk together one day fast week and were very soon on flic ice. Perhaps you might have seen them, for they were as noticeable as ■vor were two lov(*rs from the country when they first visit New York and lake a walk on Broadway. i nch had told the truth, but each secretly believed that she and he respectively was a better skater than she and be had pretended. When they were fairly “launched,” so to speak, they took hold of eacli other’s hands and in their attempt to maintain upright positions their vvriggliugs ami sawings of the air with their arms not in use suggested St. Vitus’ dance “Look out there! Where are you going?” shouted a skilled skater whom they suddenly plunged into and nearly upset. He had braced himself for the onset, and they split on him, as it were She went oue side and lie the other Two pairs of hands w ere in the air as if trying to claw chunks out of the sky, then came the collapse. He went down on his back, and she—well, she tried to sit down, but made quite a frantic and unnecessary effort. The ice seemed to her to meet hex half way and there was a very dull thud indeed. "There! I told’you so!” shoutexl the skilled skater. He was addressing himself to tiie young lady’s escort, and at the same time gallantly went to the side of the young lady, ajiologizeil to her very handsomely for running into him, ami assisted her to rise Is-fore her esoort had found time to do anything but glare at him. Then the skilled skater said to the young lady: “Per mit me!" Holding her firmly’ in posi tion, he gave hex % fine “spin” across the lake and back again. By that time the escort had gained a tolerably erect position. “Hurt?” asked the skilled skater, patronizingly. No, the escort was not hurt, except as to his feelings. He said, with a feeble attempt at jiolitenees, that ho was not injured and this time directed his glare at the young Indy. The skilled skater smiled misehievously raised his hat to the young lady and glided away. “For my part,” snapped the escort, when they were left alone, "I think the ice is no good.” “Would you like to go home?’’ she asked, with a shade of stiffness and threeehades of sarcasm. They might as well, he grumbled. And when they got their skates off and started homeward the temperature seemed to grow colder. He said he might not be “up” that evening, as he expected to be detained in “the city,” nnd he has not been “up” since.— Brooklyn Standard-Union.
