DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS., Has discovered in one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures every j kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple. He has tried it in over eleven hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases ■ (both thunder humor). He has now in his ' possession over two hundred certificates of its value, all within twenty miles of Boston. Send postal card for book. A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and a'perfect cure is war- : ranted when the right quantity is taken. When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing j through them; the same with the Liver or ; Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being I stopped, and always disappears in a week ' after taking it. Read the label. If the stomach is foul or bilious it will cause squeamish feelings at first. No change of diet ever necessary'. Eat the best you can get, and enough of it. Dose, one tablespoonfu! in water at bedtime. Sold by all Druggists.

Twin Suns. The star Alpha Centauri—the nearest star to the earth as far as we yet know—consists, as the telescope shows, of two suns, one of which is five or six ; times brighter than the other. Rut re--1 cent observations by Mr. Roberts at the (’ape of Good Hope Observatory have led him to the conclusion that the two components of Alpha Centauri, much as they differ in brightness, are really nearly equal in weight. Together they are twice as heavy as our sun. It seems to follow from these facts that one of those twin tuts is losing its light, and in the course of ages may become only a gigantic opaque planet, while its companion will still continue to blaze with solor splendor. In Olden Times I People overlooked the importance of permanently benetlcial effects and were satisfied with transient action; but now that it is generally known that Syrup of Figs will permanently cure habitual । constipation, well informed people will ! not buy other laxatives, which act for i a time, but finally injure the system.

TRIAL OF THE ROSES. Story of a Madhouse and Ite Sad Youns Patient. I In the garden of the madhouse, where the white snow of butterflies flew up towards the sun, the young alien witnSered aimlessly. He was pale with a gentle expression. And what sadness in his pale eyes! Stopping before an eglantine bush, he picked a flower, am , : then standing between two rose trees, he picked from one a tea rose and from the other a moss rose. He placed the three flowers on a wooden bench at the foot of the shady paths. He said to Ihe eglantine: "Eglantine, answer! You are accused in the days when you were a poor girl of having mercilessly abandoned a poor ami sad youth, who loved you, to marry an old man who was rich. M hat have you to say in your defense i' He awaited the response, aud then resumed: “Your case has been heard. I condemn you.” He said to the tea rose: “Tea rose, answer! You are accused. In the days when you were a young woman of the world, of having tortured to desperation by the infamous contagion of your lying smiles a miserable voting man whose heart beat ardentß, I alas! for you alone. What have you to say in your defense?” He awaited the response, and then returned: "Your case has been heard. I con demn you.” He said to the moss rose: "Moss rose, answer! You are accused. in the days when you were a vender of kisses and smiles, of having ruined by your perverse caresses a man who sought in your love forgetfulness of his old despairs. What have you to say in your defense?” lie awaited the response, and thni resumed: "Your ease has been hoard. I condemn you.” Having rendered his judgment, he drew from his pocket a pretty, but complicated, little Instrument made of cedar wood and sparkling steel. It was a tiny guillotine which he, dreaming, had made in his leisure hours. Each in her turn he laid on the min iature head block, the eglantine, the tea rose and the moss rose. One after the other, under the little knife, which fell and severed, the flowers separated . from their stems, dropped on the gravel of the path. He picked them up and looked nt them long ami intently. Then, moving slowly towards a shadowy corner of the garden, where to person passed by, he dug a little grave with bis lingers, in which he laid the throe rrimhMls, covering them with earth and acacia leaves. Then, kneeling don n, Ite wept bitterly until evening over the tomb of the guilty roses. From the French. Dangers of Having a Double. Il is sometimes very unpleasant and even dangerous to look like another person. A friend of mine, who Is on (

gaged in the practice of law. told me of । a singular Instance where too strange a | resemblance got a client in trouble. A ■ young man was arrested, charged with burglary. He had been surprised whil > .U the sleeping room of the head of the family, and had escaped by jumping threagh a window. He was pursued, but got away. Two hours later my friend's client, n stranger In the town, was arrested. The man and his wife, who saw him. positively identified th< young man, as did those who joined it the pursuit. To his attorney ho persisted in protesting bis innot'ence. but could not account for himself at the! ti*e the offense was committed, except ' i by saying he took a long walk to see j ' the city. I'hc attorney who at first be- , ! lieved his client to be guilty, looked up | ! bls record and became convinced that 'the young man was innocent, but hi-i I convict ion seemed a foregone conelui Sion. One day the lawyer met a man I on the street whom he mistook for his ' client. "Why, how did you obtain bond?" he ( asked. "You are evidently taking me for ' someone else.” was the answer. J A bright idea struck the lawyer. The stranger looked as though lie was In , hard luck, and a proposition to sit tn । the court room during the trial was accepted. The lawyer concealed, the double until the case was called, then he had the real prisoner sit behind him where he could not be seen, the accused being small and my friend quite large The double was seated in the prisoner's dock. Every witness identified the ■ man most positively, and the prosecut- I Ing attorney looked fully satisfied tin- i til the supposed prisoner was placed upon the stand, and it was shown that j Ihe was not the defendant. Subse- । Quently a convicted burglar made a confession, and among the crimes was , the one with which my friend’s client bad been charged. Washington Star. Transparent Leather. The manufacture of transparent leather is now carried on by a new process. After the hair has been removed Tom the hide, the latter, tightly stretched upon a suitable frame, is rubbed with a solution of glycerine and numeraus acids, and afterward placed in a room where the rays of the sun do not penetrate; it is then saturated with a joint ion <>f bichromate of potash. When the hide is dry an alcoholic solution of tortoise shell is applied to its surface, ind the transparent effect is thus obtained. Tuning Forks. It is said that if two tuning forks of the same pitch are placed facing each jther, the ono sounding, the other silent, in a few seconds the silent one wffl be giving out. a distinctly audible aote. It is getting to be the custom out West when a bank suspends to suspend the president also.

A few days ago a uumbm- of Mongolian pheasnnts, which have been introdmed in several I’adtlc States with mue!> success, were received at the headquarters of the commission. The birds are to lie kept in confinement and the eggs distributed in various parts of the State. The eggs will be set under domestic hens, and the young pheasants will, at the proper time, be set free in the forests. A consignment of Vii ginia quails and sharp tail grouse is now on its way to Vermont io Ik* used tor the same purpose. -— — Ghont^ Are Fnte and Shadowy, those who profess to have Interviewed them.
