The Political Outlook.
Only a few more days of the campaign
remain. Very earnest work wilt be done
by both parties between now and the elec
tion. The leaders of each party express
the utmost confidence in success. It is
not to be expected, however, that t-ey
will make public their doubtt, if they
have any. They are watching for the
weak points, and are doing * hat they can
tr strengthen them.
From the best information obtainable
Cleveland appear* to have the advantage.
Indeed, his defeat does not appear possi
ble. There seems to be a very general
feeling tbit he will be successful and that
counts for s good deal, because it influ
ence* wavering voters.
Cleveland can count upon 153 electoral
vote* with absolute certainty. They will
furnished by the south. He must have
V- more. The chance of getting them is
excellent- Two weeks ago New York
was regarded as doubtful by all who were
disposed to Tiew the situation candidly
and fairly. Now the impression is that
Cleveland will get the State by a very
large majority. The Republican organs
and orators still claim it, of course, but
the burden of their talk is that Blaine
can be elected without New York. The
Democratic managers claim New Y ork as
confidently almost as they do any South
ern State.
a number of things have occurred
lately to bring about this change of senti
ment with respect to New York. The
outpouring of business men in New York
eity last Saturday at the business men’s
mass meeting surprised everybody. It
was a revelation to Democrats as well as
to Republicans. Even the closest observ
ers of political sentiment had not realized
b w strongly the tide was running against
Blaine. The Butler movement has lost
its grip, and now excites contemot rather
taan alarm. It will hardly be perceptible
on election day. The real feeling among
the stalwarts has begun to show itself.
The stalwarts don’t like Blaine, and they
will make their disapproval of him felt at
the ballot-box. The Prohibitionists are
daily growing stronger, and seven-tenths
of their strength is drawn from the Re
publicans. Ail these things taken to
gether have created in the public mind a
belief that Cleveland will get New York.
They seem to have created about the
same impression on the minds of the
Blaine managers, if tbeir actions, rather
taan their words, are taken as an indica
t. nof what they think. They are look
ing around to see where they can make
T-.p for the loss of New Y ork. Ex-Sena-
P tr Chaffe-e has been sent to Florida to see.
it is believed, what the chances of buying
that -tale are. Oar Jacksonville dispatch
this m >rnicg states that the Republican
leafiers of Florida held a caucus there
-unday for the purpose, doubtless, of de
termining whether it was worth while to
attempt to secure that State for Blaine by
meth-ds which the Republican managers
know so well how tr use. An agent also
has been sent, .t is said, to North Caro
lina to set in motion the machinery that,
it :-> hoped, will put that State in the
Blaine column. Unprecedented efforts
are to be made to carry Indiana. New
Ji-rsey and Connecticut. From all these
signs it is safe to put Sew York in the
Cleveland column.
With New York, Cleveland will have
I'd electoral votes. Where is he to get
tne other 12 necessary to elect him * Tne
states that can be fairly considered doubt
ful are California, Connecticut, Indiana,
Michigan. Nevada. New Hampshire, New
Jersey and Wisconsin. These States have
votes. The reports from Michigan are
that the fusion ticket will be chosen. Ne
i vada is Democratic, and the Republicans
| can get it only by buying it, and just now
th°y haven’t any millionaires there. Mr.
■ Hendricks says that Indiana is safe for
the Democrats. Connecticut and New
| .Jersey are Democratic, and will give their
I e Vetoral votes to Cleveland unless pre-
I vented by the most outrageous system of
fraud, bribery and violence. New Hamp
shire and Wisconsin are on the edge of
uncertainty. They are wavering between
tue two parties. By careful management
on election day they ean be made to con
tribute to a Democratic victorv.
surely in these eight States with their
sixty-nine votes. Cleveland will be aDle to
get the twelve votes that he needs, espe
cially since, in at least four of them, he
appears to bare a great advantage. The
Biaine managers, doubtless, will make
the 1 st fight they can in all these States,
but tae line is so long that it will not be
p ssible for them to be able to put into
operati "n their peculiar tactics along the
w hole length of it. At present the out
look is decidedly in favor of Cleveland,
and it appears to be improving daily.
The Kind of a Prevaricator Blaine Is.
Henry Ward Beecher has gone into the
canvass with his coat off. He is making
some telling speeches for Cleveland. He
has the advantage of being brainier than
the great majority of campaign orators
and savs brighter and more taking things.
When he is announced to speak there is
alwmvs a crowd present. He addressed
the New Jersey Independent Republicans
at the Catholic Institute, Jersey
City, on Monday night, and in
the course of his speech
ae said: ‘‘Let us talk about lying. When
! -Tames G. Blaine said he had not bought
t (30.000 worth of stock in the Little Rock
and Fort Smith Railroad, he told, not a
professional, not a political, but a per
sonal lie. When be declared he did not
own |i5,000 worth of land in the Hocking
Valley he told a lie that could stand and
walk alone. And so in the Scott affair and
the <300,000. JJlaine is a brilliant liar,
and if ev.r there is a in lying
he will carry off the prize, la fact he is
a constitutional, c ucated and national
liar.”
Speaking of tic .eland's private charac
ter, he said: t'lf every man in New Yoik
State who has broken the seventh com
mandment once, twice or thrice would
vote for Cleveland he would have a ma
jority of 200.000. If Cleveland is the man
his enemies declare him to be, they wou’d
support him, for they are bad; they are
bummers, drunkard* and worse. Dr.
Ball, of Buffalo, had not one witness who
would be credited in a court of justice.”
and the Ministers.
It is ‘ oubtful if the ministers who call
ed on Blaine yesterday, at his hotel in New
York, did his cause any good.
When minist-rs meddle ic politics they
seem to lose the judgment and discretion
which mark their conduct in the pulpit.
Those who called on Blaine showed an
amount of bitterness towards those who
do not support him that was hardly con
sistent with their calling.
Tney declared that they regarded the
evidences of Blaine's lack of integrity as
slanders. The Mulligan letters appear to
have made no impression on them.
It would not be easy to determine what
kind of evidence would satisfy them.
Taousands of the best and purest people
in the country are satisfied that the
Mulligan letters show Blaine to be a dis
honest man. The ministers who admire
Blaine could not be satisfied that
he is uot one of the purest of men
by any amount of evidence. The
reason is that they want to stana by him,
and do not intend to believe anything to
his discredit.
They are not so charitable with respect
to Cleveland. They condemn him with
out a hearing. In his case unsupported
rumors are enough to prove him to be the
worst of men in the r estimation. What
consistency! what fairness! what char
ity!
It is noticeable that while the rich snobs
in this country are anxious for some sort
of mark of distinction by which they may
be distinguished from the masses, the
respect for the nobility in England is
daily growing less. Mr. Gladstone’s ad
dress on the opening of Parliament last
week contained a tm st significant menace
concerning the House of Lords. At most
of the Liberal meetings during the vaca
tion, and there were thousands of them,
the most popular talk was that which
was directed p gainst the House of Lords
as an institution, and the threats to
abolish it called forth the loudest cheers.
It would not be surprising if events should
soon occur in England which would give
the nation a great impetus towards radi
calism. If the House of Lords should be
abolished it would not be long perhaps be*
fore titles of nobility would lose their im
portance in England.
Irregular Mails.
We are in receipt of numerous com
plaint* about the mails. Subscribers fre
quently do not get their papers until
several days after the time they ought to
receive them. The following is a specimen
letter which we received yesterday:
Eastman. Ga., Oct. 27, ISS4.
The irregularity of the mails on this
road for the last two or three weeks nas
become almost an intcleralle nuisance.
The Savannah News and Atlanta ton- ;
stifbfiON are sometimes three or tour days ;
old before thev reach here. This morning. .
for instance.* three issues of the news
came at one time. Done having been
received In several days past. This
thing is provoking in the extreme.
It is impossible to say, withoet an inves
tigation. whether it be the fault of the
railroad or of the Post 02ce Department.
And it is no better in regard to traveling.
If one wishes to go any where by way of
the East Tennessee. Virginia and Georgia
Railroad he must start at least a day or
two earlier than he intends if be would
reach his destination by any certain time.
It is somethin? remarkable and entirely
out of the usual order of things if a train
on this road happens to arrive at a sta
tion on schedule time, or even several
hours after it is due now-a-days. The
train due at Eastman 12:45 p. m. does
wonderfully well if it gets here before
night- This is a sample only.
Nothing is more annoying than slow
and irregular mails, and the people of
Georgia and Florida have suffered annoy
ance of this kind for a good while. The
Post Offire Department undertakes to
furnish the people with regular mails, but
it is clear that so tar as the States named
are concerned it doesn't do it. There is
negligence, and, perhaps, indifference in
the department a: me where. Georgia and
Florida have able Representatives in
Congress. It is the duty of these Repre
sentatives to see that their constituents
are provided with proper mail facilities.
They are anxious enough to get the votes
of the people, and when they get them
they ougDt to devote at least a portion of
their time to looking after the wants ot
their respective States and districts.
Patience in this matter of the mails has
ceased to be a virtue. There will be no
improvement as long as the people do not
protest vigorously against the wrong
which they are forced to suffer. Ti hat
sense is there in a Savannah newspaper
being four days in reaching Eastman ?
The fact that papers of three different
days often reach that point on the same
day shows that there is negligence some
where. If the officials who handle the
mails are incompetent, let them be dis
charged. There are plenty ol good men
who would like to have their places.
At this juncture the people are particu
larly anxious to get their papers. There
is the deepest interest in the Presidential
campaign that is now drawing to a close.
Every phase of it is closely scrutinized.
To be deprived of rewspapers at any time
is something that is not to be borne with
equanimity, but to be deprived of them at
this juncture is enough to make a man
forget that he is a Christian.
A Contrast.
A man with a record like Blaine could
not have got a Presidential nomination
from the Republican party in its early
davs. The men who controlled it then
considered that integrity counted for
something. What a contrast is there be
tween the following letter, written by
Salmon P. Chase while he was Secretary
of the Treasury, and the Mulligan letters,
written by Blaine when he occupied the
position of Speaker of the House of Repre
sentatives !
••Washington, June 2, 1563.
“To , Esq., Philadelphia:
“* * * You informed me two or three
weeks ago that you had purchased 300
shares of Philadelphia and Erie Railroad
stock for me. At that time I was expect
ing means of payment from the sale of a
firm in Ohio, and would have been glad
to hold the stock for income. The sale,
however, has not yet been effected, and I
have, therefore, not been able to make
payment.
"This morning I have yours of yester
dav, notifying me that you have sold the
sto,-k at an advance, which gives a profi
of $1,200 on the transaction, and you in
close me a check for that amount.
"As I had not paid for the stock, and
did not contemplate purchasing with any
view to re-sale, 1 cannot regard the profit
as mine, and. therefore, return the check
for $4,200. It is herewith inclosed.
"I am much obliged to you for your
willingness to regard the money paid tor
the stock as a temporary loan from you
to me. But I cannot accept the favor.
When Congress at the last session saw fit
to clothe me with very large powers over
currency and financial movements I de
termined to avoid every act which could
give occasion to any suspicion that
I would use the powers conferred
on me to affect markets unneces
sarily, or at all, with reference to the
private advantage of anybody. To cam
out this determination faithfully I must
decline to receive anv advantage from
purchases or sales made with a view to
profits expected from the rise or fall of
market prices. For these reasons 1 must
decline to receive the check. For, in
order to be able to render the most efficient
service to our country, it is essential tor
me to be right as well as to seem right
and to seem right as well as to be right.”
It is certainly time that a party that
approves of Blaine’s methods of getting
rich ought to be turned out of power.
The attempt to make out that Cleveland
sent a convict as a substitute to the war
has failed. In answer to a circular sent
over the country containing this charge
Cleveland, a few days ago, wrote to Mr.
George F. Degeas follows:‘‘I was drafted
the first day the draft was put in ope
ration. Being then Assistant District
Attorney, I had plenty of opportunity to
secure a convict substitute with no ex
pense, and, in fact, was urged to do so. I
refused, however, and hired a man to go
who was a sailor on the lakes, and who
had just arrived in port and been paid off.
I dont know that he was ever arrested,
and lam sure he was not a convict, I
borrowed the money to pay him for going
as my substitute, and I think before i
paid him he had more money than ,1 had.
I often beard from him while he was in
the service, and 1 saw him quite fre
quently after he returned. If he is alive
yet I don't think either of the noble vete
rans who signed this circular would care
to meet him after he had read it.”
Secretary of War Lincoln is making
campaign speeches in the West, and
a Western paper pertinently inquires
whether he can see any resemblance be
tween the author of the Mulligan letters
and the author of the emancipation pro
clamation. Mr. Lincoln is probably not
hunting for a resemblance so much as for
a snug berth in the event of Blaine's suc
cess. "When the plumed knight shall be
on his journey up Salt river Mr. Lincoln
will wisn probably til3t he had hunted
for a resemblance rather than a snug
berth.
A Kellogg colored supporter in the
Third Louisiana Congressional district
shot and killed, a dav or two ago, a col
ored supporter of Kellogg's opponent.
The State can lose a good many of the
class to which the combatants belonged
without feeling the loss. The two men
belonged to different warring Republican
factions.

Election by Bayonet Again.
Richmond Dispatch (Item.).
If Grover Cleveland shall fail to be elected
President of the United States next Tuesday,
it will not be because a majority or the voters
do not now desire his election and intend to
vote for him. but because the unfaithful ser
vants whom the people have kept in oft *e for
so many years have determined to revolu
tionize the government and prolong indefi
nitely their own rule.

The brazen impudence of the Blaine cham
pions in attributing all our national wealth to
the effect of a highly protective tariff is past
all comprehension, especially when appeal is
made to farmers. They are about the only
class of producers, consuming a large majori
ty. who are not protected. 1 hat U the con

.Vmc Fort Evening Pott ( Ind ).
If Mr. Blaine and his advisers felt sure of
his election, ther would allow him. in the
garb of a plain citizen, to “wait quietly the
verdict of the nation in his modest home" in
Augusta. Instead of “waiting quietly" he is
beading in person one of the wildest and mod
indecent hums for the highest office in the gift
9( the people Thick has ever disgraced this
nation. We have a serene confidence that the
people will rebake him so soundly that no fu

Xew Tort Btr~jid /ad. Dtm.).
It sounds almost farcical to mention
Blaine’s name tn association with the word
integrity But such as his record is, the
people are now familiar with it, and any
Blaine man may be safely defied to show that
in alt the years he has been in office he ever
ouce preferred considerations of public • uty
when there wa= any consideration of private
gain to be weighed against it. Cleveland, on
the other hand, ha* a record as a public of

public.

Judge James Smith, of the Superior Court
of Buffalo, is a Republican. A friend of his,
Mr. Philo Parsons, of Detroit, recently wrote
him, asking him what manner of man Gov.
Cleveland is. .Judge Smith replies: “Gov.
Cleveland is an upright, honest man, of in
corruptible integrity, of fair abilities, of un
tiring industry and great capacity for labor.
He has administered the various offices he
has held wisely and well, making fewer
errors, than a more brilliant man
might have done. He is one of those men
who are always adequate to the duties of the
place they are called to fill. He has always
been considered here a strong parti-an. but I
think he is capable of preferring the good of
his country to' that of his party, where they
conflict, and the conflict is perceived by him.
He is a plain man, without pretense or osten
tation. modest in prosperity, not elated by
success beyond reason, and with a good solid
common sense that stands in good stead on ail
occasions. I am personally friendly to Gov.
Cleveland, but I shall vote the Republican
ticket.”
A promi sent POLITICIAN of Yale was neatly
done up this ssmmer by a sharp game. Hap
pening to be in a hotel lobby, he heard one
gentleman say to another: “I'll bet you 110
I can name twenty States that will go Demo
cratic this fall." The man immediately ac
cepted the bet. and the names were delivered
to him in a sealed envelope, which he was not
to open for a few minutes. A little while
after the same man, being in a bragging mood,
said that he could “name six more stages that
would go-the same wav.” Men tailed him
crazv. and some went out to look for ihe po
lice.' In the meantime he pulled out his tank
book and offered to back up his statement to
the amount of *25. Our college politician,
standing by, offered to bet him 150. The man
eoollv accepted, and wrote down the names of
the six best Democratic States in the Union.
Then there was naturally some curiosity to
see what the other twenty names were, and
the envelope was opened, when It was found
that twenty States had been named regard
le-s rf their political tendency. The man
sacrificed *lO to make *ls. aud our college
friend, being generous, increased the amount

ANOTHER FRjSAK 01’ NATURE.
The Woman Whose Bciip Is Covered
With Rattlesnake Skin.
All the phenomena of the human body
are not yet by anv means understood by
science, and probably never will be, says
a gentleman writing from Middleburg,
Schoharie county, N. Y\ It is very easy
to verify the truth of what 1 am about to
write you.
“Let anyone go up to Polly Hollow, a
little settlement among the mountains,
about lour.miles east of Middleburg. and
ask for Mrs*. Jane Flagg. She is a widow,
about 45 years old. and lives in a tumble
down shanty near the edge of the woods,
on the upper side of the narrow valley.
Eicht years ago she was attacked by a pe
culiar’disease of the scalp. At first her
head was covered with small ulcers, while
almost all her hair fell out and would not
grow again. The disease gave her such
torment that life for over a year was only
a burden. Finally she went to an herb
dcctress. an old mulatto woman, who then
lived two miles further up the mountain
road, but who has died since that time.
This old has, who tore the reputation of
being a witch, told her to gather cer
tain herbs from a graveyard at mid
night. boil them, and then mix the
decoction with the blood and lacerated
skin of a freshly killed rattlesnake and
rub her head with the ointment thus
made. Tne sufferer brfndly followed this
advice, gathered the herbs as directed and
then began looking for a rattlesnake. She
offered a dollar tor one, and two young
men went up to the Niskcraw Mountain,
killed one and brought it to her. Then
she mixed ail the ingredients together
and rubbed the abominable mixture upon
her scalp. -Within a week the ulcers
began to heal. She was overjoyed at this
result, and continued to rub on the mix
ture oftener than ever. Within a month
from tbe time she first began using it the
disease had entirely disappeared, leaving
the entire scalp covered witn healthy
healing. All tbe neighbors marvelled
greatly at the cure, and the old mulatto
doctress suddenly found herself famous
in a small way.
“But you can imagine everybody’s as
tonishment when, after atout six weeks
longer, the healing on her head began to
drop off and revealed the startling fact
that the woman’s head was covered with
rattlesnake skin. There could to no mis
take about It. The hard, shining scales
and the peculiar marking was exactly
like the skin of that most deadly ot ser
pents. the rattlesnake. What strange
effect the blood and macerated fragments
of the skin of the reptile she had used to
make the lotion had produced upon her
scalp so as to make rattlesnake skin grow
up>on it in place ot the natural skin. I do
not pretend to explain nor do I believe
any one can. But, nevertneless, it is a
fact, as any one who will take the trouble
to go up to Polly Hollow can see for him
self.”
Tested by a Hair.
A 'Washington correspondent writes:
“In the base of the capitol at Washington
is the engmery by which the House, the
innate, and the' committee rooms are
warmed and ventilated, and the ges
lighted by electricity. It is altogether a
big apparatus, consisting of three im
mense tans, four engines, and eight boil
ers, with the necessary appliances for
regulating thetemperature and moisture of
the air supplied to the nation’s legisla
tors. The instrument which tells wheth
er the air is too moist or too dry is opera
ted by a single human hair. A perfectly
dry air Is put at 0; saturated air, that is.
air carrying all the moisture it will hold,
is put at 100. A dial, with a hand like
that of a clock, represents the different
degrees from 0 to 100. The human hair
absorbs moisture like a rope, and, like a
rope, it becomesjshorter when wet. The
difference in length between a hair six
inches long when wet and the same hair
when dry Is made to represent the hun
dred degrees on the dial, and the hand or
pointer moves backward or forward as
the moisture in the hair varies. If it be
comes too dry, more steam is thrown in;
if too moist, less steam is allowed to es
cape, and thus the atmosphere for the na
tion’s statesmen is regulated and kept at
the healthful point, which is about 50.”
Marrying His Own Daughter.
Troy Times.
A singular case of domestic relations is
reported in a Schoharie county town, a
few miles from Schenectady. A son of a
farmer eloped 18 years ago with a 15-vear
old daughter of a neighbor, and they set
tled in Esperanee, la. A daughter was
born to them. While the child was an in
fant the mother eloped with a commercial
traveler, taking the girl with her, and
thev went to Chicago. When 14 years old
the daughter, whose name was the same
as hen mother’s, ran away, and on the
cars met a man, who, taking a deep inter
est in her, obtained tor her a situation.
The acquaintance ripened into love, and
they were finally married, taking up a
residence in Schoharie county.
In some way the girl's mother learned
of her marriage and decided to visit her
daughter. The woman appeared unex
pectedly, and with the other interested
persons was astounded in discovering
that her child had married her own father
and the husband whom the mother had
deserted years ago. The woman promptly
withdrew and has returned to the West.
The separation of the husband and wife,
or the lather and daughter, who have one
child, will follow.
In a Cable Car.
San Francisco Chronicls.
But there are villages in the interior of
this State, as I said, where they do not
know everything. A young lady who has
lived in an inland county all her life,
where no railroad has reached, and noth
ing more artistic than a circus has pre
sented itself, paid her first visit to San
Francisco a few weeks ago. She knew
that she would necessarily come across
some very strange and new things, and
she had sealed her lips and made up her
mind firmly not to be surprised at any
thing. She was conveyed up town, and.
with her friends, got on the cable car. She
did not show any interest in the novelty.
She wa •>, apparently, quite accustomed to
dummies and things, conductors, engi
neers, and impolite passengers. All was
well until the starter blew his whistle, the
conductor rung the bell, and the car went
off with a jerk. She clutched madly at
the seat, gave a healthy interior county
scream, and, quite losing control of her
ignorance, cried out:
“Jerusha! Where's the team V*

THE INDIANA CAMPAIGN.
A Poll of the Stato Show* to be Safe
for the Democracy.
A few days ago, says an Indianapolis
special to the Sew York World, Oct. 2,,
I stated that I was credibly informed
that the second Republican poll of the
State showed a Democratic majority of
over 6.000. Today I had this information
confirmed from another source, and it is
inferentiaUy corroborated by the known
result of the first Republican poll, which
was completed shortly before Blaine
entered the State. That poll indi
cated a Democratic majority of 0.444.
Inasmuch as the Democratic poll, which
was very carefully made, showed a Dem
ocratic majority of 8,200, each of these re
sults must be accepted as a very strong
proof of the approximate correctness of
the other, they having been arrived at by
entirely different setsof canvassers whose
interests were antagonistic. In order
that this statement may not mislead, it is
proper to say that in the estimates of both
parties there are about 24,000 votes, which,
being in a measure uncertain, are divided
as each of the statisticians deem fair. It
is not at all probable that in arriving at
its conclusions Mr. New's committee
claimed for the Republican party any less
than its fair share.
I have much more faith in the poll of
Indiana than I had in the party polls of
Ohio, for the reason that the Indiana vote
is very largely an agricultural and village
vote, and it is proverbial that in the coun
try the number and political predilections
of the voters of each precinct are known
ot all men. Farmer Smith can tell you
bow Farmer Brown has voted at every
election for the past ten years, and how
he is going to vote at the next election.
Cobbler Jones can tell you how three
fourths of the men in his hamlet will throw
their influence and their ballots, and if
there be any man in the town or township
who makes’a secret of his polities that
very fact is construed to his detriment
and he is watched as a trader. There are
onJv six or seven communities m the State
which aspire to the title of cities, and In
dianapolis. with its 75.000 or SO,OOO, is the
only one in which the work of canvassing
is in anv large measure uncertain. Even
here the work is much facilitated by that
provision ol law which limits precincts to
the number of 250 voters and requires the
Legislature to divide them up when that
number is exceeded. The consequence is
that Indiana,with only two-thirds of Ohio’s
population, has almost exactly the same
number of election precincts, and the
diminutive size of the precincts enables
each subcommittee to keep thoroughly
acquainted with the names and even the
faces of all who have a right to vote.
That class of voters who are working to
dav in this shop and to-morrow in yonder
factory are constantlv shifting, and pos
sessing no responsibility to bind them to
either political party is very small indeed
in this State as compared with any other
State in the North. If then in Ohio one
of the State Committee secured a poll
which proved to be within less
than l,ouo of the total vote sub
sequently cast, and the other committee
came within 5,000 of the correct figure, it
is not unreasonable to suppose that the
polls of this State, under such infinitely
more favorable auspices, are a pretty ac
curate index. I think they are accepted
as such by both committees, and 1 believe
that Mr. John C. New and Col. SV. W.
Dudley are well satisfied that in order to
win a* victory next week their organiza
tions must oVercome by some argument
other than skyrockets and tom-toms the
6.000 Democratic majority whose exist
ence is established by their own canvass.
A Warrior's Foolish Letter..
Jeuish World.
An amusing episode occurred during
the recent manoeuvres of the Austrian
army. The chief of the regiment garri
soned near Vienna wrote to a gentleman
he knew in Anger, Dr. Neuwirth, asking
if he would kindly end him quarters in
the town during the manoeuvres, in which
he had to take part. ‘‘l have only one
stipulation to make,*’ he wrote: ‘"don’t
lodge me in the house of a Jew.’’ The
following is the answer received by the
doughty warrior: “Honored Sir—The
chance of you being quartered with Jews
has already been removed by circumstan
ces. There are only two Jewish families
in Anger. The Archduke Albrecht is
lodging with one, the Archduke Wilhelm
with the other. The latter is the fam.Viy
of, yours sincerely, Dr. Neuwirth.’’

Miss Boynton’s Case of Skin and
Blood Disease—The Most Re
markable Cure on Record.
I taaYe been afflicted lor one year and nine
months with what the doctor* called rapia. I
was taken with dreadful pains in my head and
body, my feet became so swollen that I was
perfectl>' helpless, sores broke out on my bodv
and face, my appetite left me. I coal’d no’t
sleep nights, I lost flesh, amf soon became o
wretched that I longed to die. In this condi
tion, after trying various remedies, I engaged
two homoeopathic physicians, Dr. and Dr.
and a half, and failed to get even temporary
relief. My disease grew worse; my sufferings
became terrible. I tried “faith cure,” but it
was unsuccessful. Kind friends then tried to
get me into the City Hospitat, but the Super
intendent, after seeing me, declined to admit
such a case as mine there, and said I would
not live six weeks unless I was relieved.
On April 20 last I sent for Dr. F. M. Blod
gett, of Boston. He came, and after an ex
amination pronounced my case the most hope
less he had ever witnessed. My photograph,
which was then taken at his desire, while 1
lay propped up in bed. shows the disease as It
appeared on my face; but no picture could
possibly indicate how much pain and suffer
ing 1 eadurcl. The eruption had increased
to great burrowing, foul-smelling sores, from
which a reddish matter constantly poured,
forming crusts of great thickness. Other sores
appeared on various pans of my body, and I
became so weak that I could not’leave’my bed.
In this condition, and by advice of Dr.
Blodgett. I began the use of the Ccticura
Remedies, the Rksolvsjst internally three
times per day,and the Cuticur a and Cutiuura
Soap externally. In just sixty days, i.
Ji.ne 20,1 was so far recovered as to be able
to go alone to the gallery and sit for my pho
tograph, which shows more than words can
do the wonderful cure these remedies have
wrought in less than nine weeks. The sores
have all disappeared from mv face and body,
my appetite and strength have returned; lain
free from pain, my flesh is increasing, and I
can go about and enjoy l.fe- My restoration
to perfect health is now only a matter of a
few weeks. My friends think my cure miracu
lous ; and I shall never cease to feel that the
Cuticur a Remedies have saved mv life.
