P, P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves
a Man From Becomiag a Cripple.
Mr. Asa Ammons, a well-known
citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was
afflicted by n terrible ulcer. Medical
skill set med unavailing in stopping the
ravages of the terrible disease. The
|,.<r was swollen and intensely painful,
as the ulcer had eaten its way down
to the very bone. All medicines and
treatments having failed to effect a
cure, the doctors said the leg must
come off. Just when it seemed that
Mr. Ammons would become a, disabled
and a crippled man, he tried P. I*. I’.,
Lippman's (h eat Remedy, and the re
sult was wonderful.
I P. P. P. SAY*S HIS LEG.
“ Jacksonville, Fla., July 1, 1895.
Two years ago I had the worst ulcer
on my log 1 ever saw. It had eaten
down to the bone, and'my whole-leg
below my knee, and my foot was
swollen and inflamed. The bone was
swollen and painful, and discharged a
most offensive matter. My physicians
said I had necrosis of the bone, and
my leg would have to come off. At
this st age I commenced to take P. P. P.
and to bat he my leg with hot castile
soap suds. It began to improve at
once and healed rapidly, and is to-day
a sound and useful leg.

Expedient by Which Gormamdixing I«
Greatly Faeflitated.
One of the most painful facts in life is
the apparent impossibility of reconciling
fashion and common sense. One may be
long on stylo and short on comfort, or he
may have comfort to burn and give fashion
the rhake, but there seems to be no all
around good thing eo cue may lie swell
and comfortable at the same time- You
n:ust choose between them. There is no
good reason for this. It is an arbitrary
and unnecessary infliction laid on a suffer
ing world, and one is forced to the oqnclu
sion that nothing short of utter malignity
could have inspired many of the fashions
under which we groan. There is not even
the excuse of beauty, for which one might
well endure 'many pangs of discomfort.
There is nothing artistic in a linen cob ir
so high and stiff it Io- ks like an under
study of a tern cotta chimney flue. But
it is full of suffering and style. No one
since the days of Mcpbistophelea ever had
Let built after the architecture of the
pointed toe shoes. There is no beauty in
them—nothing but aches and corns and
fashion. When nature made lovely wom
an, it wrote beauty in every soft curve of
her ixidy, but fashion never rested until it
squeezed and compressed her into the
shape of an hourglass. She was too com
fortable In flowing,draperies that fell in
loose grace, and she was girth d up in stays
and smothered in frillsand weighted down
with ornaments in the interest of the
theory that style and c-. rnfort could not be
amalgamated. Such being the case, It
gives great phastire to notice that a new
fashion has r>«o a igtruducul which happily
combines the very latest wrinkld of fash
ion with tho most admirable common
sense.
It is now customary among the smart
set in New York to have dancing Latwoen
the courses of clairortite dinners. The swell
dancing is varied with cake walks, skirt
dancing and other edifying aids to diges
tion. The possibilltic.-! this opens up to
people of epicurean taste are simply limit
1> -s, and it is also beyond praise as ft kind
of Jlfo saving measure, as every one at a
long dinner must have .some time felt that
the next course would be the death of him.
Then, too, this scores heavily for us as
showing the advancement in refinement
that has been made since the days of the
banquets of Lucullus and other swell din
ner givers of antiquity. When their jaded
appetites gave out, they took a disgusting,
i if simple, means of refreshing them, so as
to be able to take a fresh start all over
again. Now, we will simply arise and exe
cute a short bur vior nt dance, and be
ready to do justice to the further triumphs
of the chef. No more dishes served with
sauce piquante or sauce hollandaise, but
withan accompaniment of Virginia reel
or a cake walk or a highland fling and
good digestion will wait on appetite.
Another advantage it offers is tho sup
pression of tho after dinner orator. Fel
lows like Chauncey Depew will no longer
have a monopoly on a good thing because
they can talk, don’t you know. On tho
contrary, young fellows whose brains are
in thoir heelswill be tho bright, particUlai
; stars that peoplewho give fashionable din
ners will seek out. On the whole, this
readjustment of tho etiquette of dinner
giving has everything to commend it and
will stand as a monument to the genius
who devised it.—New Orleans Picayune.
' The Kunaway Kn-ine.
In cleaning the fire a spark had ignited
tho waste on top of tho back driving box.
; The blaze attracted the attention of my
l oid friend Pop. who was oiling his engine
and talking with a couple of firemen as
' she passed. Thinking that tho hostler
I was taking her out to the coal pockets, he
j shouted: “Iley! Yer back drivin box is
! nfiro!” As no ono answered, they all
I looked carefully at her and saw that she
was alone. A shout went up, “That en
gine’s runnin away!” Tho fireman of a
nearby switch engine leaped to the ground
and sprinted after her. In the meantime
old 06, having passed all the switches and
got upon the main track, was gaining
speed with every revolution of her -big
drivers. The fireman touched the back of
her tank with the tips of his outstretched
fingers, and then with a derisive wriggle
of her drawbead sbo glided away.
Ho was directly in front of the telegraph
office when he realized that the race was
lost .and rushed into tho office, told the
operator what had happened and advised
him to tell Wilson, eight miles away, to
sidetrack her. Wilson got tho message alj
right and started on the run. As Be
opened the door a meteor shot by, and,
glancing up the line, a faint glimpse of
the back end of a tender with a big yellow
9(3 on it disappearing round the curve in
a cloud of dust told him she had gone.—
Herbert E. Hamblen, in “Firing a Loco
motive,” in McClure’s.
Rain and Sir a very.
Mr. Frederick Villiers, the well known
war correspondent, tells a characteristic
anecdote of Sir Henry Havelock-Allan.
During the siege of Plevna he was riding
with a colleague toward headquarters
from a little light which had taken place
on the east of Plevna. Both were tired,
and their horses wero jaded with a hard
day’s* work. But Sir Henry kept up a
steady trot in spite of tho heavy roads.
Presently his comrade’s horse stumbled,
throwing the rider to the ground. The
general drew rein at once and shouted to
his prostrate colleague: “What are you do
ing there, sir? Great heavens! Get up at
once! Do you bear, sir? This is simply
disgraceful. Mount at once!” The fallen
man, half stunned, struggled to his feet.
By this time Sir Henry had caught his
horse and brought it to him. His compan
ion was reeling like a drunken man, and,
not quite certain whether his neck was
broken, he was mopping his bleeding head
with his pocket handkerchief. “Great
heavens! And you call yourself an Engllsh
i man. Mount at once, sir!” shouted Allan.
: His colleague instinctively obeyed without
a murmur; but, as be was reeling a bit,
Sir Henry redo By his side, murmuring:
“You are hurl, 1 know, but for God’s sake
don’t show it before these Cossacks. We
are Englishmen, and we can't afford to let
Russians see that we feel pain.”—St.
James Gazette.
Catching Cold.
It is not altogether unsatisfactory to
people who think that science and common
sense should run together, although bo
doubt discouraging to those who looked on
the germ theory of disease as the opening
of a Sanitary millennium, tq find that after
all we can “catch cold.” The great dis
covery that most of tho febrile diseases
from which we suffer are associated with
the growth within os of micro organisms
made ninny people for a time look some
what skeptically on “catching cold,” and
we were told that when we felt shivery,
and then in a few hours found ourselves
sniffing and out. of sorts, the chill to which
we attributed all the mischief was really
the first sign of our being ill. Certain ex
periments, however, which have recently
been made tend to rehabilitate “cold” in
its position as a cause of disease, for they
have shown that exposure to cold lowers
the resistance of tho body to infection, and,
what is more interesting still, they have
madeTt clear that in regard to various
diseases which are known to bo caused by
micro organisms, and especially iu regard
to pneumonia, wo may carry the organ
isms about with us and rot suffer and yet
that exposure to cold may at once enable
the microbes to take root.
Recent demonstrations of the presence
of the pneumococcus in tho lungs of
healthy animals, and the fact that expos
ing such animals to a thorough chill will
bring pneumonia, is very suggestive
and makes it probable that in many of the
ailments which result from “catching
i cold” a concurrent infection from without
|is not necessary. Tho healthier and. the
i cleaner the men, both inside and out, the
more, no doubt, will be be able to boar ex
i posure without ill consequences, but for
those people whose tissues arc already
' charged with infective micro organisms a
i “mere chill’’ may evidently set up disease,

A Bismarck Story.
Rudolph Lindau, in the Deutsche Revue,
tells some stories about Prince Bismarck
that have not told in detail before.
In May, 1563, Bismarck, then only count,
was passing through Unter den Linden,
when be beard behind him the report of a
revolver. He turned quickly around and
Saw a young man—Tcrdiriana ‘Blind It
was— atoning at him with the still smok
ing pistol. Bismarck ran toward the man
arwi seized the hand in which he held the
revoltr, and with the other hand be
gr.iF. - d the assassin’s throat. The latter,
however, had time to slip his Risto! into
the other hand and shot three times in
quick succession. Bismarck felt himself
wounded in the shonMcr and injured In
one of bisrhw, but- beheld his assailant
fast until several soldiers ran up and se
cured him. Then Bismarck walked quick
ly to his house, which he reached long be
fore any report of the affair got there.
The countess, it appeared, had several
callers whin her husband came in. Ho
greeted them all pleasantly and asked to
b< excused for a few minutes on account
of apr --ing engagement. Thereupon he
retired to the next room and rapidly wrote
out an recount of the attempt on his life,
which ho sent to the king. Then, return
ing to the drawing room, he joked in his
usual way about his unpunctuality at.
luncheoq and ate with a good appetite.
When the meal was finished, he went to
the countess, kissed her, wished her
mahlzeit ” in the old German way and
adtb-.1, “You see that I am quite well,
don’t you? She stared at him, where
upon he added: “Yes, you mustn’t be
anxious, my child. Somebody has shot at
me, but it is nothing, as you see.”
The- Sagacious Bergall.
Lying up close against the end of an
ovw banging stone on the bottom of one of
the tanks at the aquarium was an eel
about 15 inches in length. About six or
eight inches of the eel’s tail pirojected clear
a-’ the stone. Swimming about in the
same tank w thcre was a bergall about 6
in-.h> s in kngtl}, which presently took a
notion that it would like to lie in there
snug against the rock and the overhanging
projection, and it came up at the tall end
of the cel and tried to wedge itself in be
tween the cel and tho rock—that is, to
crowd tho eel away and take its placo.
But the i.ergull couldn’t do that; there
is a good deal of strength in an eel, and
this eel held its placo firmly. Tho bergall
hauled off a litilo distance and headed for
the point where the rock and the side of
tho eel met and made for it under full
steam, but with the same result; it
couldn’t budge the eel, which still clung
closely to the rock. Then tho bergall back
ed off '.gain and tried a change of tactics.
The eel’s head was around on the other
side of the rock, where It couldn’t see
what was going on at the rear. The ber
gall backed off and darted for the eel’s tail
and nipped it as hard as it could bite.
The ecl started as though it had been
struck by lightning and slid around tho
end of tho reek and off to tho other end of
the tank, cutting in the Water as it vzent
letter H’s of 14 different sizes and styles,
while the bergall quickly took its place
under tho overhanging rock.—New York

The Horse Gets the Most In Russia.
In Russia tho wages of a horse are high
er than those of a man, and hence, of
course, very much higher than the wages
of women. Thus in the Nishni-Vclga sec
tion we find the average pay of man and
horse to be about 72 cents per day, of man
alone 84 cents —-that is, 38 cents for horse
and 34 cents for man. The women receive
from 10 to 20 cents. In the contra! agri
cultural region the average is: Horse, 23
cents, man, 20 cents; woman, 13 cents.
In tho southern steppe: Horse, 36 cents;
man, 25 cents; woman, 16 cents.
This is an interesting commentary on
tho standard of living of Russian agricul
tural laborers. Its meaning is simply
that human beings are cheaper there than
draft animals. In other words, it costs loss
to keep thorn alivo. In the southern steppe
five woman can be employed more cheaply
than two horses. Is it difficult to imagine
tlio conditions of home life, the dearth of
refining influences, the sodden, hopeless
stagnation that such a state of affairs re
flects? Is it any wonder that tho products
of such a wage status as this are individual
degradation, social barrenness, meager
education, political despotism, religious
intolerance and generally a typeof civiliza
tion scarcely above barbarism?—-Gunton’s
Magazine.
DINAH-GALI FOU.
The Ludicrous Adventures of a Negro
Hing Ta Gay Paris.
Dinah-Saiifou, formerly king of the
Nalous, died a few days ago in tho Mili
tary hospital of St. Louis, in Senegal. It
may bo remembered that only two sov
ereigns visited the French .universal exhi
bition of 1889. Dinah-Saiifou was one,
imd the shah of Persia, the luxurious
Nasr-ed-din, was the other. They met one
day at the exhibition. The shah looked at
his black cousin from head to foot anti
then turned away in contemptuous silence,
much to tho surprise of the poor negro
monarch, who folt inclined to call him
out. The shah, however, compensated for
the affront by presenting him with a mag
nificent saber, which Dinah-Saiifou im
mediately suspended to his bolt. It was
tho happiest day of bis life, as Joseph
Prud'homme would have said. But, alas,
his happiness did not last long! There be
ing some doubt as to the authenticity of
the African potentate, no reception was 1
prepared for his arrival, ana he had to
lodge in a small furnished apartment.
Every day our negro king, accompanied
by his queen, a corpulent lady dressed in
savage fashion, went out in an open cab
to visit the sights of Paris. Behind the
royal couple camo their suit, which was
composed of half a dozen natives, all at
tired in what may be described as rags
and tatters, and grinning like so many
gorillas. His majesty knew nothing of
the French language beyond a phrase
which he had learned, and which he em
ployed. on all occasions, from grave to gay,
from lively to severe. “Suis tres content”
(I am very contented) was the universal
phrase in question. One evening Dinah-
Saiifou, together with his wife and at
tendants, went to the theater of the Porte
St. Martin. Tho king was dressed in a
long robe very much like a dressing
gown, a hat which resembled a wideawake,
with a tall crown, red babouches, and bj
bis side the saber which the shah had given
hhn, Jhe quepn wore a white dress, with
a necklace made of colored beads, and a
small bat of red and yellow velvet. As
regards their suit, they put ?n Vir the oc
casion caftans of various colors, greasy and
patched up. One of the dignitaries had on
a pair of red trousers which evidently be
longed at one time to soma French soldier
Another was the treasurer of the king
dom, who was considered to be a dis tin
guished personage.
His African majesty was a tall, well
built- man, as black as ebony The queen
was also tall and not without a certain
grace. But she was not so black as her
royal busband. The manager of the thea
ter did honor to his royal guests by plac
ing them in one of the prominent boxes,
from which they were able to see ttvs whole
audience. “Suis tres content,” said the
king, showing his tongue and indicating
thereby that he was thirsty. Beer was
brought to them, and as they drank it the
orchestra struck up a “bamboula, ” which
delighted them beyond measure. The per
formance passed off all right, save that the
queen fell asleep and set to snoring so
loudly that she had to be removed to a
back seat. The king preserved a more
dignified attitude. Upright-and immobile,
with his right hand on his saber, he fol
lowed the representation. Now and then
he looked at the audience, and a few cries
of “Vive Dinah!” were raised, whereon
he bowed gracefully and exclaimed, “Suis
tres content!” The news soon spread that
Dinah-Saiifou and. his suit were inside,
and in a few minutes the theater was be
sieged by a large crowd curious to see
them. When the dark monarch appeared
as the door, he was greeted with all sorts
of cries, to which he responded by clap
ping his hands. It was some time before
the royal couple and their attendants could
bo pushed into cabs, but, alas, such was
the crowd that it was impossible to move
on. The police were powerless to clear the
way, and renewed cries of “Vive Dinahl
Vive les moricauds!” echoed on all sides.
Dinah-Saiifou seemed at first to be agree
ably surprised and shook the hands of all
near him, exclaiming“Suistres content!”
but on seeing the crowd jump on his cab
and take other liberties with himself and
wife be began to feel uneasy. Suddenly
he rose in great wrath and glaring fero
ciously at the crowd around him cried out
louder than ever, “Suis tres content!”

riment of the spectators. Hie fury grow
ing greater, he wanted to draw his salxr
and charge the crowd, but uisfortuiKitely
tho weapon was intended for show only
and bad no blade. But for that soms; dis
aster might have occurred.
His misfortunes, however, did noiend
here. A little ragamuffin, more audacious
than tlie rest, seized hold of his majesty's
crown and made off with it. Tho king
was about to descend from his carriage
and pursue the urchin, but his queen kept
him back by the tail of his caftan. The
disorder was now complete. A strong
force of police, however, soon arrived, and
the crown was restored to its owner. The
crowd then made way for the royal vehicle,
and Dinah, who had recovered from his
indignation, saiuted them. The latter
again shouted “Vive Salifou!” while the
black monarch responded with cries of
“Suis tres content'” and so ended the royal
adventure. —Paris Letter in London Globe
A Diamond Tooth Joke.
Here is an anecdote about a Brooklyn
dentist that has recently caused a smile or
two in drawing room and club circled no|
far from the heights. A wealthy man
upon whom nature has bestowed a rugged
and serious countenance to mask a joking
disposition called at the office of tho den
tist aforesaid in actual distress over a bro
ken front tooth. “Can anything be done
to remedy this defect?” he asked eagerly.
Upon examination the dental artist
found that one of two very large and prom
inent upper teeth had been damaged be
yond repair. “It must come out,” be said
curtly.
“No, no, you must build it up,” ex
claimed tho visitor. “I can’t spare that
tooth. Its removal would make my mouth
look like an open porthole.”
“Oh, well, I can replace it,” complacent
ly answered the dentist. “Tho old ono
must certainly come out, but 1 will put in
a new one that will make you look better
than ever before. It will bo firm and reg
ular and much handsomer than the old
one.”
“Ah!” muttered the wealthy roan.
“That's what I want. Make it as at
tractive as possible.”
“Yes, indeed, I will,” said tho dentist
enthusiastically. “You shall have a tooth
that will bo perfect in form, white, pearly
and glistening”—
“Say, doctor,” interrupted the visitor
with niock gravity, “couldn’t you set a
large diamond in the middle of it?”
“Ch, no, I wouldn’t do that,” replied
the dentist hastily, but in sober earnest.
“Os course I know that you can well af
ford it, but it would look—well, just a
trifle too conspicuous, don’t you know.”—
New York Timos.
He Could Vary the Monotony.
Thera is no man in public life wh.o en
joys a story more than Samuel Hamilton,
county superintendent cf public schools.
Mr. Hamilton tells one on himself which
came about when he was a country school
teacher.
“I had a big class and was just a little
nervous on my first break into life as a
teacher,” said tho big fellow. “I had a
class up, and a little fellow who sat up in
the corner bsgan twirling his thumbs like
wildfire. He seemed to be trying to break
his own record at thumb twirling, and he
was doing well when I landed down at his
end of the earth with a question. He
didn’t hear me at all. I might as well
have been in .the Klondike for all ho cared.
He was twirling so that bis little thumbs
looked like a pinwheel.
“ ’Williaiq,’ I shouted, with a voice that
jarred the stove door open and broke a
small boy’s slate across the room. William
woke up and looked at me in a dazed fash
ion.
“ ‘ls that all you can do in class?’ I
thundered.
“Quick as a flash came the reply: ‘No,
sir; I can do it backward just as fast.’
And to make bis words good he began to
twirl those thumbs backward at lightning
speed. ” —Pittsburg Dispatch.
The Conventions Hard Task.
It is related that in the later forties, or
theeveof a Democratic state convention in
Albany, Dean Richmond and Peter Cagga:
were in consultation. Something like Ink
was the dialogue between the two bosses:
“Whom shall we put up for governor?’
asked Richmond.
“Seymour will do. Tie is able, respects
bio, popular and will render the tickes
invincible,” answered Cagger. And Sey
mour’s name went down.
“Who for attorfley general?" queried
Richmond.
“Oh, Tremaine. He is by far the best
of the lot. Besides, we want the Van
Buren influence.” And down went Tre
maine.
“Who for secretary-of state?” quoth
Richmond.
“Van Ness. Ho is capable and respect
able, and we want tho influence of the
Knickerbockers anyhow.” And down
went Van Ness. And so it was until the
ticket was completed, with the exception
of superintendent of education.
“Peter, whom shall we name for that?
There are three or four candidates. 'I
never heard of either of them before,” said
Richmond.
“Oh, d—n it,” returned Gagger, “let
tho convention nominate the candidate set
superintendent of public education. ” And
down that went too.
The following day the convention put
through the slate so constructed in less
than two hours. It required more than
two days to nominate the candidate for
superintendent of education.—Louisville
