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*.

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, i —London Hospital. 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 Suu. 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!” syhich) of course, only increased the mer- MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 6 1898. 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 Courier Journal.
