CAN CURE ASTHMA AND HAY FEVER.

A Leading Physician it lait Dis-covers-the fiemedj. The majority of sufferers from asthma and kindred complaints, after trying many doctors and numberless advertised remedies without avail, have conie to the conclusion that there Is no cure for these mosUlistressing diseases, and no doubt these same persons wilt be the more In doubt and skeptical when they learn through the columns of the press that Pr. Uudolph Sehiffmann,the recognized authority,who has treated more cases of these diseases than any living doctor, lias achieved success by perfecting a remedy which not only gives Immediate relief iu the worst cases, but has positively cured thousands of sufferers, who were considered incurable. These were just as Skeptical as some of our readers, who are thus afllicted, now are. - His remedy Do doubt possesses the merit claimed by the doctor or he would not be willing to authorize this paper to announce that he is not only wiDing to give free to each person in this city suffering from jisthma, hay fever, phthisic or bronchitis, one free liberal trial package of his cure, but urgently requests all sufferers to send him their name apd address and receive a package, absolutely free of charge, knowing that in making the claim he does for his cure, a strong doubt will arise in the minds of many, and that a personal test, as be offers to all, will be more convincing and prove its merits than the publishing of thousands of testimonials from others who have been permanently cured by the use of his asthma cure. “Dr. Schiffmaun's Asthma Cure,” as it is called, has been sold by ail druggists ever since it was first introduced, although many persons have never heard of it. The doctor has certa'.uly made a most generous and fair offer, and all who are suffering from any of the above complaints should write to hi mat once, and avail themselves of his offer.

By Measurement.

It is often supposed that boys in growing keep ahead of the girls; but recent measurements disapprove this. The boys, up to their eleventh year, were found to run about a quarter to half an inch taller than the girls. They were then overtaken by the girls, who surpassed them in height till their sixteenth year, when the boys again grew faster than the girls, and came to the front.

Where I used to be pitied, everything is the opposite, an l there is not a day but what some one wants to know what I have done to work such a wonder. “Before taking the Compound I had constant headaches; was constipated; bloated; eyes weak, with watery whites; bearing down pains; pains ki the small of my back and right aide; took cold very easily, which always caused intense pain in ovariss. I did not want to go anywhere or see any one. “I was called cross, but I could not help it, feeling as I did. I could not lift anything or do any hard work without suffering for days afterward. Menstruation lasted from eight to ten days, the first two or three days being in almost constant pain, day and night. “ Lydlall.

CHAT OF THE CAPITAL

SPECULATION AS TO JACKSON'S SUCCESSOR. At Present Bissell Seems to Be the Strongest Man—Marshes of the Potomac Are Being Abolished—The Great Congressional Library. An Early Appointment Likely. Washington correspondence: ~

HERE is still a I great deal of specu--1 lation as to whom the President will appoint to fill the place of the late Jus-ts,-w tice Jackson. Some ||» people - have wondered why the nppointraent has not already been made, but it is pointed out nBHj) that there is no instance on record where a justice has ifvraffia» been appointed durilM'—i ing the interim beflfjl tween the adjourn- [ [J ]■ ment and the reas- •» 1 sembling of Con-

gress. Moreover, there is really no immediate necessity for the filling of the vacancy and it is not expected that the President will seriously consider the matter until his return to this city in October. Justice Field has pointed out the necessity of the vacancy being filled about that time,’ as the docket of the court is several years behind. The loss of even a single member of the bench would therefore be considerably felt and for this reason the Chief Justice and some of his associates are said to have urged upon the President the advisability of filling the place os early as possible. The thing which is thought to weigh most with the President against making an early appointment is that it might eubject the justice selected to the humiliation of sitting on the bench for a short time, only to find he was a persona grata to the Senate. Until an appointment is finally made there will continue to be much guessing as to the appointment. At the present time Mr. Bisseil seems to be about the strongest man, not only because of his friendship with the President, but also because of his being a New Yorker, from which State it is thought the appointment will be made. It is predicted by many that the President will follow his custom and appoint a lawyer not known to the general public. If the President intends to honor any of his Cabinet with a seat on the bench Secretary Carlisle would in all probability be the man.

Potomac Marshes. Little by little the marshes of the Potomac, which have so long rendered Washington unhealthy, are being abolished. When the agitation for the abolition of the marshes began it was maintained that the upper marshes rendered the White House unhealthy, while those op tlie eastern branch performed a similar offense to the United States arsenal and navy yard. The plan which is being followed in the matter is either to put the marshes permanently under water or else to bring parts of them permanently above. That this work, although only in its infancy, has been productive of good resuits the death rate of Washington this summer has shown. Physicians throughout the city report that there is less malaria in the place than ever before, and they note a similar decrease in the sickness caused by marsh miasma. The improvement in the river itself is nearly completed, but that on the eastern branch is barely under way. Here the flats choke up most of the waterway and half poison the air.

The plan which Maj. Twining, the engineer, is following in this part of the river will have the effect of straightening out the navy yard channel, which now winds around like a W, while the great mud marshes will be cjmnged into water or high land. The friends of the late Secretary Gresham always declared that the sickness which ultimately caused his death was brought about by the exhalations from the marshes near the State Department. At certain points of the wind all the air from these marshes is borne directly into the departments, and many a man owes his first sickness to Potomac malaria. Congressional Library.

When the great Congressional library is completed members of Congress will be able to get the books they need in a less space Of time than by any other system on efirth. Much of this will be due to the tyrtrtil of shelving which is to bo adopted in the library. Many months of investigation took place before the final choice of these bookcases was made. Next to the reading-room there will open put an extensive book magazine or repository filled with iron eases consisting of tiers or floors rising sixty-five feet high to the roof. These tiers were put in at tills distance to obviate the necessity of using ladders. As each tier of shelves is only eight feet high it is easy to reach the topmost shelves without help of any kind. Each stack has a shelving capacity of 8,000 volumes. The librarians have also been investigating the improvements of other libraries, and on the various floors in the book stacks there will lie elevators and tramways for the transportation of books.

Every kind of time-saving machinery which ingenuity can devise will be put into use to bring books to the tunnel which is to be put into operation between the Capitol and the library. Work on this has already been commenced. A trench 11,000 feet long has been dug across the Capitol pqrk. and in it will be constructed a brick conduit six feet high nnd four feet wide. This conduit will connect the basement of the librttry building with the basement of the Capitol. Shafts will ran both from the library stacks nnd from the Congressional floors to this tunnel. It is proposed to run a small cable through the tunnel upon which will constantly travel carriers large enough to hold books. These will nfove very rapidIdly, nnd will tako up and deliver the hooks between the two buildings. Telephone wires nre to lie laid in this conduit, and a menfber of Congress will be able to communicate his wants directly to the librarian front-the cloak-rooms of either the Senate or the House. Tho tunnel is intended to be dry and light, so that a man can walk through it if anything goes wrong. As this book railway is ajily to be used to furnish members of Congress wit If books it is expected that two carriers will be sufficient. The smaller the number the greater the speed which can be used for the cable. The event of the evening—suuscL

LITERARY LITTLE BITS

Pierre Loti is about to start on a Journey through India. “Elizabeth Hastings,” the author of that clever satire, “An Experiment In Altruism,” turns out to be Miss Margaret Sherwood, a young instructor An Wellesley College. Col. John Hay Is the latest author to boast a literary daughter. Miss Helen Hay contributes to one of the young folks’ magazines a humorous poem called “The Merry Mongoose.” tThe danger that besets the novelist who attempts to write plays Is illustrated by Mr, Zangwill in an anecdote of an actress who played in an unsuccessful comedy by a distinguished man of letters. One of her stage directions, she said, ran thus: “Re-enter Mary, having drunk a cup of tea.” George Hugo has been made sub-di-rector of I„a Nouvelle Revue, of which Mme. Adam is in charge. <- It is supposed that he and young Leon Daudet will soon replace Mme. Adam, who is to devote all her time to her six volumes of memoirs, one of which is to appear each year until finished. The prize of $2,000 which Miss Mary Wilkins recently won in the detectivestory competition is not her first success of the kind. Her earliest published story, “The Ghost Family,” secured her the prize of SSO for. which it was written. Miss Wilkins’ bad chlrogaphy handicapped her early efforts to gain a publisher’s favor.- She writes an immature, schoolgirl hand that used to prejudice publishers’ “readers” against her.

This is the pessimistic conclusion at which Mr. Howells has arrived, as set forth in his latest book: “I have found that literature gives one no certain stationin- the- worid of men’s activities, either idle or useful. We literary folk try to believe that it does, but that is all nonsense. At every period of life among boys and men we are accepted when they are at leisure and want to be amused; and at best we are tolerated rather than accepted.” One of the most promising of the younger school of authors in the West is Miss Lillian Bell, of Chicago, of whose newest book, “A Little Sister to the Wilderness,” five thousand copies were sold in three weeks. Miss Bell is a young woman of thiaty, who became known a few years ago by her “Love Affairs of An Old Maid.” She had written two complete novels before she was fifteen, but they are not destined ever to sec the light of publication.

PRESIDENT GRANT’S PHAETON.

Tho Yellow-Wheeled Carriage Sold by Auction for sl4i The old platform-spring park phaeton owned by Gen. Grant while he was President of the United states was sold by auction a few days ago for sl4. It was the carriage that was hitched to a four-in-hand team and conveyed Grant to the capitol for his second inauguration, and afterward did similar service for Mr. Hayes. During Grant’s administration the high-seated park phaeton, with the yellow wheels and yellowstriped body, was conspicuous on all the thoroughfares in and around Washington. Grant’s famous double team, Cincinnati and Egypt, the fastest pair of horses that ever occupied a stall in the executive stable, were usually hooked to it. Old residents in Washington recall with what apparent delight President Grant drove through the city in that yellow-wheeled conveyance. There was only one other like it ever seen in Washington, and that was brought here and used by the late Senator John P. Stockton, of New Jersey, who was a personal friend of Grant.—New York •Sun.

In Time or Eternity.

“There Is something about your verses that is quite nice. Miss iludiih ' said the aged but truthful editor <- r Clarion, “and I am euny we a,, i able to use them." —y “Then,” fluttered Miss Cuddly, as s. received back the little roll tied about with a blue ribbon, “you think, do you not, that If I persevere, In time 1 may be able to write very acceptable poetry ?” “Y-es,” assented the editor of the Clarion; “In time. Or at least,” he hastened to add, as a glad thought burst upon his Intellect, “if not In time, Miss Buddly, what is the matter with trying eternity?”

The Moral of the Moral.

The persistency with which children see some other moral in a fable than the one which it Is Intended that they shall see is often distressing, and sometimes really instructive, to their elders. A mother had recited to her little boy the story of the wolf and the lamb, and followed it up with the remark: “And now you see, Willy, that the lamb would not have been eaten by the wolf if he had been good and sensible.** “Yes, I understand, mamma,” said Willy; “If the lamb had been good and sensible, we should have had him to eat!”

Romance in Real Life.

“William,” said the millionaire merchant, “are you carrying any life insurance?” ' • . . “Yes, sir,” answered his hard-work-ing clerk. “My life is insured for $3,000.” “Isn’t it pretty hard for you to keep the premiums, or assessments, or whatever you call them, paid up?” "Sometimes it is. I have to be very economical.” “Has vonr family any property or other expectations aside from that $5,000 in case of your death ?” “Nov sis.” x—— —- “Well, here’s my chock for $5,000, my boy. You may make over the policy to me, pay me the premiums as they come due. and I’ll see, or my tiers will, that the policy%oesn’t lapse. Your family won't have to wait till you’re dead to enter on the enjoyment of that money, iEhat will do, young man, I don’t want any thanks or any remonstrances. I can do as I please with my own money, I reckon, sir. Get to your work again.” (Accompanying this little story was a private note from vfie author, who said he had sent it to seventeen other papers, one after another, and it had been rejected by all of them on account of its extreme improbability.)

Touching Farewell.

A country minister, in a certain town, took permanent leave of his congregation in the following pathetic manner: “Brothers and sisters, I come to say good-by. I don’t think God loves this church, because none of you ever die. I don’t think you love each other, because I never marry any of you. I don’t think you love me, because you have uot paid my salary. Your donations are moldy fruit and wormy apples, and ‘by their fruits ye shall know them.’ Brothers, I am going away to a better place. I have been called to be chaplain of a penitentiary. Where I go ye can come, but I go to prepare a place for you, and may the Lord have mercy on your souls. Good-by.”
