CxWSED BY VACCINATION. 1 From thr Journal, Detroit, Mich. 1 Every oue in the vicinity of Meldrum avenue and Champlain street, Detroit, knows Mrs. McDonald, and many a neighbor has reason to feel grateful to her for the kind and friendly interest she has manifested in cases of illness. She is a kind-hearted friend, a natural nurse, and an intelligent and refined lady. To a reporter she recently talked at some length about Dr. Williams’ I‘tnk Fills, giving some very interesting ihstinees in her own immediate knowledge of marvelous cures, and the universal beneficence of the remedy to those who had used it. “1 have reason to knyv,” said Mrs. McDonald, “something of the worth of this medicine, for it has been demonstrated in my own immediate family. My daughter Kittie is attending high school, ami has never been very strong since she began. I suppose she studies hath, and sit has quite a distance to go e '* Y' When the small pox broke out all ot the school children had to be vaccinated. 1 j took her over to Dr. Jamesen and be vac- i cinated her. 1 never saw sdeh an arm in my life and the doctor said he never did. I She was broken out on her shoulders and back and was just as sick as she could be. To add to it all neuralgia set in, and the poor child was in misery. She is naturallv of a nervous temperament and she suffered most awfully. Even after she recovered the neuralgia did n»t leave her. Stormy days or days that weie damp or preceded a storm, she could nut go out at all. She was pale and thin, anti had no appetite. . , ~ , “I have forgottwn just who told me about the Pink Fills, but I got some for her and they cured her right up. She has a nice color in her face, eats ami sleeps well, goes to school every day. ami is well and strong in every particular. 1 have never heard of anything to build up the Dr. Williams Pink Fills for Pale Feo pie are considered an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial piralysis.

I that tired feeling resulting from nervoVs ; prostration; ail diseases resulting ffdfn j vitiated humors in the blood, such as i scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities and all forms of weakness. In men they effect a radical cure in all eases arising from mental worry, overwork or exI cesses of whatever nature.

Most persons are aware that the earth makes a complete revolution on its axis once in twenty-four hours, but probably many are ignorant as to the high rate of speed in accomplishing the feat. The highest velocity ever attained by a’cannon-ball has been estimated something like I.GOO foot petsecond; and the earth must turn al most c<itially fast. In short, the rate of sjieed at the equr 'or has been estimated at nearly 1.500 jeet per second, or a mile every 3.6 seconds, or 17 miles a minute. UQ SECRET IN THIS WOMAN’S CASE.

In the case of Mary E. Campbell, cf i Albion, Noblo Co., Ind., her suffering ; 1 was so severe, her relief so suddenly realized, and her gratitude so great, that il e wishes the circumstances publkhcd, in the hope that others may Lc benefited thereby. She says: — “My physician told me I had dropsy and falling cf ths womb. My stomach and bowels were so bloated I could rot get a full breath. My face and hands were bloated badly. I had that dreadful bearing-down pain, backache, palpitation of the heart, and nervousness. “One of my physicians told me Iliad something growing in my stomach; and the medicine that I took gave me relief only for a short time. I thought I must die. I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it worked like a charm. After taking the first bottle I could walk across the street, now I am well. I advise all my friends to take ^t.’ , —Mary E. Campbell, Albion, Noble Co

ETIQUETTE OF A POSTAL C^o, Usch and Abuses of This Conven^-nt Bit of Pasteboard. M , . The ethics of a postal card may l>e formulated in one rule: “Never virite anything upon a postal card whichjyou would not think it prudent or dignified •to proclaim from the House top-” 1 Some people-—particular people—never use postal cards at all. Tfe too extreme. They are oft^wryV, venient and quite proper if correct; used. Beyond the address no name shouk । fever be written out upon them. Thej should begin with the customary “Doai —'anybody” and end without “Yours truly” or “Affectionately,” being signed only with Initials. The date unft address serve to further identify thi sender, who is presumed to be on suegi Intimate social or business relations 1 wi.th the party addressed as to justify tlie use of a postal card. For while postals for a hasty ' । or formalimessage, or’ suppiy^hhj^eej i ( of cheap communication in simple bufe.. i ness arrangements, It is not conslderextH I courteous or punctiliously polite to use ■ j them in addressing any one, num^ woman, to whom you wish to sI^KL^ spect. If any doubt arises In thWl^Jr, as to the propriety of sending a posiaT,'< It is well to give one’s self the benefit of the doubt and write a note. Postals aro useful to mail while on a journey. Posted at different places, they announce the safe arrival of tlie traveler at points where he has scarco ly time to write notes. I'sed hastily, they are useful to announce a lette? or give assent to a previously discuss- ■ ed arrangement. Details of family .1.1)3,J-e.i’A or personal affairs show ignorToil i-Tu i>r.-e<iinjr. As an example of away in which a postal card should Dot be used may be quoted one sent Py ■ i grief-stricken sister to a cousin in a distant city: , Dearest Kate We have just ieturr.- • ed from laying dear brother Harry iff । tiie grave. As the weather is so tin- . pleasant, it made us feel more unhappy to come away and leave him with the 1 tain beating down upon him. Youu loving cousin, HARHIET SMITH.” Now, Harriet doubtless felt all she ■ expressed. But was a postal card rhe proper place to write her sentiments ( Harper's Bazar. WILD CAT FOR A BOA.

Wood, a river ( man, who is now in the city. Mr. Wood has a handsome neck niufllor of tawny skin, but he does not keep it In a Kandbox at night. He locks it in a strong cage, for his boa Is a half grown wild eat, with full grown claws and teeth.

Knilway Between Hiissia and Persia. Persia is about to be provided with a new railroad. The line is being engi- ' neared by the Czar’s officials, and e<mi structed by means of Muscovite capital. It is to have its base at the Russian port of Baku, which is connected with tlie entire Russian railroad system, and is to extend across the plain of Mogan to tlie frontier slation of 1 >ulfa, uhenea It will proceed southward to tlie grant Persian city of Tabreez. From there, byway of Kazviu It continues to Teheran, whence branches are to be constructed to tlie great pilgrim resort of Meshed, on tlie northeast frontier, and to tho ancient metropolis, Ispahan, in tho South. Apart front tho political consequences of this line, the practical opening up of a great country so rich and yet so undeveloped as Persia cannot fail to prove of immense interest to trade and industry in every part of tha civilized work!. Very Apropos. An examination iu astronomy had begun in p certain college recently (savs tho Boston Transcript).

This was what he foundbeing a couplet from a well-known hymn; Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upward I fly!
