CURE ALL YOUR ILLS.

Bur Panaceas forf livery Ailment Un der the Sun. sir Patent meoMelaes Are Born an Orow Where Advertising- Ie FnJly Appreciates1 .eeem aa4 Rail ore. CtUaafc-e HerakL "In the three wartis, 'pains and panaceas, ? is comprebended tbe whole subject of - patent medicines, said a prominent whole sale aruiKiHi or mis ny to a reporter in search of information on that worldknown topic. "People are bound to have the former, and as long as there is an earth the latter will tie manufactured as ' , cure-all. " Patent medicines have become one of the staples of the world's products. s and are as certain now of being' found on the market as wheat or baby caniagts ' or corn. oere ana wuen me patent medi cine, as it w now understood, originated, is hard to tell. . I am inclined to the belief that, like lopny, it just growed. "In regard to the efficacy of patent medicines 1 nave this much to say: While a larjre niimuer 01 mem are, 01 course, ab solutely worthless, it must be admitted that many of Uicm have a great deal of merit and will do nearly what is claimed forthein. A manufacturer finds a recipe wuh-u, in its cures 01 certain sicknesses. uaa iM-corne almost a tradition In a locality, wriiUjia maK.es a study of some special disease and prepares his formula; It stands to reason that in either case the medicines must have merit. Many of these preparations are compounded of herbs which the indlan, through a natural instinct, has been using further back than iuo memory vi man goeui; others are real iv w hat your physician would give you at a higher price, while the many are but simple decoctions, which, combined with the good hygienic advice they make you lonow, enecl their cures. "There are patent medicines without end. In this catalogue I have here there are 3,0(0 varieties listed, which are actively befDre the trade, and there are fully 4,000 varieties known. Then consider the vast numler which have only a local reputation, and I have no doubt the total would be brought up to 8,001. The amount of manufacturing done is tremendous, but a larger number of the firms haven't much capital to put Into advertising, and consequently their products never secure anything but a local reputation. The big wU-rn firms have extensive manufactories, in w hich they employ thousands of people, and many of them have even arrived at that point where they own large printing ottices and get out their own advertising matter. "It would be a hard matter to guess at the total amount manufactured, but aa Hea can be obtained by referring to a few ttf tki nmni t ,,.. t I . . . l - j I nnw hofnw the r,nilt . r . - . ..... h"-' " Ajo.il. ravi LUt; value of the product of a well-known Koohester firm was $3,000,000; of a Philadelphia firm, $2,000,000; of another Philadelphia firm, f 1,500,000; of a Baltimore firm, $1,000,000; of a Buffalo firm, ' LC00,000; of a Lowell firm, $1,000,000. Nearly one tenth of this entire product w iihikik-u i or me western trade oy the iw-ycu principal nrug nouses ot Chicago. . Ou of these Arms sends about five carloads, or S7.900 bottles, of its medicine to - this city every month to be distributed through the west, northwest and south. .... This getting medicine in car load lots is, of course, an exceptional case, but it serves as an instance to show to what a mairnitude this business has grown. The amouat of advertising done In the interests of patent medicines, through almanacs, newspapers, circulars, showcards, posters, etc., is simply enormous," said a well known advertising agent whom - the reporter subsequently visited, "and the money paid out runs up into the millions. Almanacs are printed by the ton, and when you figure out that these almanacs will average sixteen or seventeen to the paund you can realise what that means; and not one ton or five tons, but hundreds of tbem. I kuow several firms who issue from ttfty to three hundred tons of printed matter every year, and, besides, do an iru-(-;ineus amount of newspaper advertising. About a rear ago one of the more V! protulnent of the patent medicine manufitrtarrrs was interested in a trial in this city, and swore on the witness stand that bin advertising expenses for the preceding year were fSoO.UOO; a prominent Baltimore firm I know expended nearly $200,000 lust year, and there are many firms who pay out from $50,000 to $100,000. V hy, take yesterday's Chicago dailies and ' figure up the number of patent medicine , advertisements - therein. That will give yon an Wea of the extent of the business. " The reporter did so; he scanned the columns of the papers and found therein nearly thirty columns of display advertisements setting forth the merits of patent medicines. "That is exclusive of reading notices and could have cost no less than $l.U00," continued the agent. "It gives you an Idea of the extent to which this advertising is carried. Iu fact, it has been pushed so much that patent medicine advertisers are constantly-- devising new srmcs and expending money out of the ordiuary channels. " Cambodia's Wealth. : 1 . -.

MR. BEECHER'S WILD RIDE. ane Kzperfeaees or the PI r mo nth Pastor a CsUbw4 Trterele. Peskskfll Letter but. HMCher does not care ' to talk muoh about his first eper4oaoe on his tricyole, but your correspondent waa inrcanaie. nourt to be one of a party who listened to the story from his own lips, whiofa were constantly smiling at tha thought of the figure he ut at the fcuue. ii seems Mat the old gentleman was the victim of an extremely practical ' " son, wun otner gentlemen friends, thought that a tricycle would be a welcome addition to tha stable of the house, and they asked a friend in the vicinity who owned one to call at . the nouse ana infatuate the great divine with ite easy movement and speed. The request!, and the conspirators dilated on the adaptability of mo carriage 10 Bi-out eiueny gentlemen or Air. Beechers build. It did not take mucn persuasion, as Mr. Boecher viw the machine with delight, and even after it aeparture he talked in . raptures of tne tricycle, ana expressed his determi nation oi tiuying one. Young Mr. Beecher kindly took upon himself the taaic or making the purchase. Young Mr. Beecher rode the machine to tne brow of the nearest hill; and the Rev. Ilenry Ward walked behind with tne rest of the party. The hill is a fine one, and will be easilr recalled bv all who have ever been in the Peekskill by the large clump of trees at the right of the road, in which stands a monster oak. Arrived at the summit. th orig inal Beecher mounted his balky steed, and told all to stand back. His son gave the 'cycle a vigorous push, and off she went, gathering increased momentum at every revolution. ' Mr. 1 Beecher's hat came flying back to the starting-point. lie himself was too busit to no tice such a trifle, having more important business at that moment in an honest endeavor to stop in his downward course. ins nair streaming out behind, with his horizontal coat-tails as stiff as a. nlanthis eyes protruding in such a manner that they could have been knocked off with a stick; and his hands erastana' the sides of the carriage; and the plaaging, whizzing tricycle made a pictnro which the natives who saw it will never forget. There is a sham curve in that hill at the red gate which shuts off the road to the ice pond. Farmer Tompkins stood there and looked up the hill in wonder at the approaching meteor with its cloud of meteoric dust behind. Ilia first impulse waa to throw a log in the way. If he had earned out 1 that design Plymouth church would have been called upon to mourn the untimely fate of its pastor. As the tricycle hastened to pass the fanner Mr. Tompkins saw what the trouble was. So did his dog, which immediately joined in the chase, adding music to the "merry-go-down." Like most hills this particular inclined plana has a bottom and it came none too quickly for the lightning divine. The sigh he heaved as the maohine Btrnck level ground was plainly heard in the ulage. The tncycle revolved less wildly and stopped short at the foot of another hill. Before it was fully stopped Mr.- Beecher jumped off with surprising agility, w hen the sympathizing mends, all a-tremble, caught up with the tri-" cycle, they found Mr. Beecher almost drowned in a cold perspiration. He avowed that he would never try it again, but he has, and now he slides down that hill with great enjoyment, a horse dragging the machine home from the foot of the hilL Th nifuun of Sweet. ' (Chicago News. French candy exists in this country only in name and in imagination. The so-called French candy is made in America. Like a great many other luxuries, it is given a title which is misleading. At one time candies of French manufacture were sold in tha United States. They were really imported, and people paid dearly for the pleasure of eating pure sweetmeats made in a foreign country. But the Americans have brought the art of candy-making up to a high standard. The trade name of the candy commonly called French ts "mixed. If you ask a candy manu facturer whether he uses glucose or sugar in making mixed candy his air of pious horror will warn you that it is a leading question. t Candy can scarcely be pure when made of glncose, however harmless k it may be. Hence, the purest and finest candies are made of the best sugar. There are three classes of candy. One is drogeo, another clear goods, and the third hand-made. The drogee candy is machine-made. It is manufactured in revolving kettles, and under its head are sugar-plums and almonds. The clear goods are cough-drops, colt's-foot, lemon-drops, and frnit flavors of all kinds. - The hand-made sweetmeats are ' fine cream, nouga, and almond - pastel "The candy of which we soil the most," . said a candy dealer on Madison street, "is the mixed goods. It is called French candy, but that is a misnomer. Next to mixed, caramels and msrshmallows and lime-juice tablets are popular. Stick candy is no longer popular, though some is sold to small shoos who dispose of it to -children because it is cheap. " - ' "How is the sale of conserved fruits?'' "That is an expensive candy and much bought by wealthy people. That is the onl class of candy we import. The fruit is stewed and glaced. It is made in France, where the manufacture is perfect. We cannot conserve fruit in this country. Our raw material is too watery.- We have never been able to conserve anything except pineapples. That is because the pineapples are the same here as in France. Afraid or Slealtaaa, Philadelphia Caii Jones Come, let's get out. Smith What forj The concert is not half over. Wait a little.
