It is probably because “the quality of mercy is not strained" that it frequently has such an unpleasant sediment. No one knows his neighbor’s burdens, but he feels reasonably sure that they are not so heavy as his own. The man who forgets to mail a letter for his wife need not necessarily be regarded as absent-minded; but he who forgets to supply himself witr enough tobacco to last over Sunday is in a condition that may well alarm his friends.

I After reading the following letters can my one longer doubt that a trustworthy remedy for that terribly fatal malady, consumption, has at last been found! If these letters bad {been written br your best known and most esteemed neighbors they could bo no more worthy of your confidence than they now are, coming, as they do, from well known, Intelligent and trustworthy citizens, who, In their several neighborhoods, enjoy the fullest confidence and respect of all who know them. I K. C. McLin, Esq., of Kompsville, Princess Anne Co., Va., whoso portrait heads this article, writes : “ When I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery I (was very low with a cough and at times apit up much blood. I was not able to do the least work, but most of the time was in bed. I wes all run-down, very weak, my jheod was dizzy and I was extremely despondent. Tho first bottle I took did not seem Ito do me much good, but I had faith in it and continued using it until I had taken fifteen bottles and now I do not look nor feel like the same man I was one year ago. People are astonished and say, ‘well, last year this time I would net have thought that you would be living now.’ I can thankfully say I am entirely cured of a disease which, but for your wonderful ‘Discovery would have resulted in my death.” Even when the predisposition to consumption is inherited, it may be cured, as verified by the following from a most truthful and pinch respected Canadian lady, Mrs. Thomae Vansicklin, of Brighton, Ont She wntes: «• I have long felt it my duty to acknowledge to you what Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and bis ‘Pleasant Pellets’ have done for mo. They almost raised me from ’ ti>e grave. I had threo brothers and one ■ister die of consumption and I was speedily following after them. I had severe owigh, pain, copious expectoration and other alarming symptoms and my friends all tiionght I had nut a few months to live. At that time I was persuaded to try the ‘Golden Medical Discovery* and the first bottle acted like magic. Of course, I continued on with the medicine and as a result I gained saefaly fa strength. My friends were aston-

Skillful Women.

Once in a while a skillful-fingered woman with bnppy suggestions*in her busy brain hits on a device in the way of decoration or fancy work that yields her a good round sum of money. A woman made thousands of dollars by inventing the device of little owls as a decoration for Christmas cards. The same woman has put on sale “brownies” as good as those of Palmer Cox, and which can be used as favors and for other ornamental purposes. In Oxford, England, a woman makes a living selling lamp and candle shades made to represent the regulation trencher or student’s mortarboard cap. In pink or blue paper they are wonderfully pretty. It is just the time now for our own women workers to get up Christmas novelties for the fancy shops and Woman’s Exchange. . t Seeeral calculating machines received ;he gold medal at the Paris exposition.

For weak lungs, spitting of blood, shortness of breath, nasal catarrh, bronchitis, severe coughs, asthma, and kindred affections, it is a sovereign remedy. While it promptly cures the severest coughs, it strengthens the system and purifies the blood. “Golden Medical Discovery" does not make fat people more corpulent, but for thin, pale, K children, as well aa for adults reduced eh, from any cause, it is the greatest flesh-builder known to medical science.

A BOORER BORED.

A Violin-Maker Fastened to the Floor with a Centerbit. One of the most extraordinary cases on record has just come before th« police court of the Seine, says Galignani’s Messenger. In July last a man named Dubois took a room in the Rue Traversiere, and one of his first acts was to put up a swinging lamp. 11l order to fix it he began boring a hole in the ceiling with a centerbit, and was hard at work when the concierge and some of the tenants rushed into the room and called upon him to stop, asserting that he had pierced the ceiling and impaled the tenant who occupied the room above. He went up-stairs with them, andfound the tenant, in question, a violinmaker, sitting fixed to the floor, and writhing in agony. The instrument was cautiously withdrawn from his flesh, but the injury inflicted was so serious that he was confined to his bed for three months. The case caused a great deal of amusement in court to everyone but the violin-maker, who was only “awarded” 250 francs compensation for three months’ loss of work, while Dubois was fined 16 francs for negligence. That a man should have been sitting on the floor exactly above the spot where the hole was being bored is extraordinary. But that his cries should not have been heard by his tormentor is still more remarkable.

A High Jumper.

G. W. Roden, the present English amateur champion at high jumpuig, recently gave an exhibition of his abilities in the jumping line at Cudleigh, when the folio wing feats were performed by him, says the New York Clipper: Jumping through a hoop eighteen inches in diameter held six feet from the ground; jumping on to e man’s shoulders, and from thence over a bar raised nine feet from the ground; jumping in and out of barrels; jumping on the handle of a sword, the point being placed on a man’s breast and forehead; jumping over a man’s head and in the act removing an apple from the head with the spike of his shoe; jumping over eight chairs, two at a time. Sideways and forward, each spring and pitch being from a brick, jumping over five men seated in chairs in one rising jump; jumping on and off jars and handles of flat-ions; jumping on to the backs of two chairs and there remaining, and also on to the sbodlders of a man; jumping on and from a man's face without injuring him; clearing ten chairs at one spring.

Necessity of Sleep for Brain Workers.

Some people require more sleep than others. The more nervous the temperament the more sleep is required. Sleep is better than any stimulant. If all those who work mentally would take time in the middle of the day say for half an hour and would accustom themselves to go to sleep, they would find that they would wear better, lust longer and do their work much better. Sleep is a remedial agent. Brain workers require more sleep than physical workers.

THE TRUST AFTER NO-TO-BAC.

Eatlmated That Half » Million Tnbaoeo Duers Will Be Cured in *9* by the I'm of No-To-Bac, Causing a Loss of Many Millions of Dollars to Tobacco Manufacturers. CHICAGO, March 24.— [Special.}— It was reported tc day that a large sum of money had been offered the proprietors of the cure for the tobacco habit called “no-to-tac,” which is famous all over the country for its wonderful effect. This offer, it was said, was made by parties who desire to take it off the market and stop its sale, because of its injury to the tobacco business. Mr. H. L. Kramer, general manager of the no-to-bac business, was interviewed at his office, 45 Randolph street, and when questioned, promptly said: “No, sir; no-to-bac is not for sale to the tobacco trust. We just refused a half million from other parties for our business: Certainly no-to-bac affects the tobacco business. It will cure over a half million people in 1894, at an average saving of SSO wnich each would otherwise expend for tobacco, amounting in round figures to $25,000,000. Of course tobacco manufacturers and dealers’ loss is the gain of the party taking no-to-bac. Does no-to-bac benefit physically? Yes, sir. The majority of our patients report an immediate gain in flesh, and their nicotine saturated systems are cleansed and made vigorous. How is no-to-bac sold? Principally through our traveling agents. We employ over a thousand.. It is also sold by druggists, wholesale and retail, throughout the United States and Canada. How are patients assured that no-to-bac will effect a cure in their case? We absolutely guarantee three boxes, costing $2.50, to cure any case. Failure to cure means the money back. Of course there are failures, but they are few, and we can better afford to have the geol will of an occasional failure than his money. We publish a little book called ‘Don’t Tobacco Spit or Smoke Your Life Away,’ that tells all about no-to-bac, which will be mailed free to any one desiring it by addressing the Sterling Remedy Co., 45-49 Randolph street, Chicago. * When a man is too dull to see the point he gets little good out of a compass.

A HOUSE IN A FRET.

Let the mother become sick and helpless, and the house is all in disorder. When both father and mother are down, you may as well close the shutters. Order is brought out of chaos often very easily, and Mrs. John Malin, of South Butte, Mont., Feb. 17, 1893, found an easy way out of her difficulties, as she writes thus: “My husband and I took very bad rheumatism from severe colds, and my arms were so lame I could not raise them to help myself. I sent at once for a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, and before the bottle was half empty, I could go about my work. My husband became so lame he could not get out of bed. Two and a half bottles completely cured him. I will always praise St. Jacobs Oil and you may use this as you see fit.” A damsel who becomes betrothed to a blockhead is no better than he.

HOUSEHOLD TREASURE.

Growing Popularity of the Oxford Sewing Machines. There is nothing more truly a household treasure than a good sewing machine. To be without it is to be willfully deprived of the immense advantage of one of the greatest of all inventions. A machine once bought is a perpetual treasure. It demands no wages, occasions no expense or trouble and is always ready without a moment’s notice to render the work of the laborious housewife tenfold more efficient and expeditious. Some machines combine the best ideas and suggestions which have been so abundantly intro-. duced in this remarkable mechanism. A machine which exhibits in liberal combination all the best features introduced is the Oxford Improved Sewing Machine, made by the Oxford Manufacturing Company, Chicago, description and cut of which can be seen in the advertising columns of this paper. They make high and low arm machines, with lock-stitch shuttle.rmmingliirht and quiet. These machines have the following important features: Cheapness (ranging from $10.50 upward;) perfect, almost self-adjusting and graduated tension; are under con trol of the operator, and are always positive in their working. They are entirely selfthreading in all points, including the shuttle. The needle is self-setting, and the attachments are quickly and easily placed and fastened. The shuttle has an easy oscillating motion, causing it to keep its proper place against the race. Their Oxford, Home and Columbia Machines, with attachments, were awarded the medal premium at the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago.
