With many a curve the trunk I pitch,
With many a about and tally;
At station, aiding, cressing, switch,
On mountain grade or valley,
I heave. I push, I sling, I toes,
With vigorous endeavor—
And men may smile and men grow cross,
But I sling my trunk forever!
Ever! aver!
I bust the trunk forever.
I grumble over traveling bags,
And monstrous sample cases,
But I can smash the makers’ brags
lake plaster Paris vases.
They holler, holler as I go,
But they can't stop me, never.
For they will learn just what I know—
A trunk won’t last forever 1
Ever! ever!
A trunk won’t last forever!
I tug, I jerk, I pant, I sweat,
I toes the light valises,
And what’s too big to throw, you bet
I’ll fire round in pieces.
They murmur, murmur, everywhere,
But I will heed them never 1
Though women weep and strong men swear-
I’ll sling their trunks forever 1
Ever 1 ever 1
I'll bust their trunks forever!

THE MAJOR’S CHOICE.
The fair feminine society of Port
ville was much exercised in mind when
Major Trixton bought the great brown
house across the park.
Year in and year out that house had
stood vacant. Summer suns had
woven their threads of light through
the closed blinds; winter snows had
piled their white drifts against the
threshold.
Some said the house was damp,
others that it was haunted, yet others
shrewdly surmised that it w r as in
litigation, and couldn’t show a clean
title.
But nobody knew anything for cer
tain, and when Major Trixton bought
it, and an army of decorators, masons,
painters and upholsterers took pos
session of it, the interest and curios
ity of Portville was at the culminating
i point. *
That the major was a bachelor was
very certain. That he was forty years
old, if not older, appeared an incontro
vertible fact. That he was immensely
rich, rather eccentric, and decidedly in
want of a wife, everybody in town
knew before the title deeds of the big
house had been twenty-four hours in
i the possession of the new owner.
“Yes,” the major had averred, seri
ously, when facetiously cha lenged on
the subject by Mr. Miles Rideau, one
of his most intimate friends, “ I do
want a wife. You may chaff about it
as much as you please, but it don't
alter the fact. But I want a wife, not
a bundle of giggle, and frizzes and
Paris millinery.”
“11l introduce you to our first
young ladies,” said Mr. Rideau, cheer
fully, “and then you can pick and
I choose for yourself.”
Major Trixon was silent.
“A regular old bachelor,” said Ri
deau to himself. “ He’ll never marry.
He wants perfection, and there’s no girl
living that can come up to his stand
ard.”
The ladies, as a matter of course,
were much interested in the bluff,
brown, elderly major. Miss Serena
Silver, whose grandfather had been a
commodore, and whose genealogical
tree had more branches than a star
fish, picked out the last gray hair from
her tresses and plumed herself for
conquest
" He’ll want a lady of undisputable
I ww*. -osition,” she thought.
jod, the pretty dressmaker’s
Msisiant, pmnea an extra blush rose
in the front of her bonnet as she
tripped to and fro to het work past
the windows of the brown house.
“ The old story of King Cophetua
and the beggar maid is often repeating
itself,” she thought. “And I’m not
quite a beggar.”
While all the beauties in Portville
brightened up their armor and pre
pared to enter the lists.
Major Trixon went into society, and
society was puzzled to know what to
make of him.
“Twelve shirts’” said Gertrude May,
holding up her hands in dismay.
“ Twelve shirts !” echoed Mrs. Lacy,
who was a pretty widow on promo
tion.
’• But, my dears,” sai l Mrs. Hedge,
the mother of two dimpled, velvet
eyed brunettes, “you must be mis
taken !”
“ We’re not, mamma,” said Bertha.
“ He really did say so, mumsey,” de
clared Ida.
“You see, Mrs. Hedge,” explained
Erminia Bruce, ‘ he has founded a
hospital or poorhouse or something
out West, and he wants a box made
up to send to the poof people there.
And be has asked the young ladies
hereabouts to contribute twelve shirts
—one ea h. don’t you see? And they
must be made by their own hands.”
“ So ridiculous I” said Mrs. Hedge.
“But old bachelors always do have
their quips and cranks,” said Mrs.
Lacy, complacently, as she remembered
a garment, of the late lamented Lacy’s
wardrobe which she promised herself
to “do up ” and pass on to the Western
paupers :*s apiece of genuine domestic
manufacture.
“Well, ghls, you’ll have to get your
Workboxes,” said Mrs. Hedge.
“If it was worsted work, now,”
said Ida.
'Or Remington stitch,” sighed
Bertha.
"But shirts’ Who fever heard of
shirts?” said Getrude. “ However, we
must a'l try. A rich o’.d bachelor is
worth a few pinched fingers—eh,
girls?”
But Erminia Bruce, who had no
liking for plain needlework, looked
with disgust at the Wamsutta muslin,
the card of buttons, and the compact
paper patterns on the table.
“ I haven’t time for it,” said she to
her. elf, “if I practice that sonata for
the Thursday evening’s musical. I’ll
put it out, and the major w’ill never
know that 1 didn’t make it myself. A
shirt, indeed! Why, he’ll be expecting
us to scrub floors and make soft soap
next. The brown house is very nice,
but I mean to be lady of it without
any of this odious drudgery.”
So Miss Bruce, who was tall, with a
superb complexion, flashing black eyes
and a figure like Diana’s own, rolled
up the obnoxious materials and car
ried them to a little house around the
corner, where a pal Q , dove-eyed young
woman, no longer in her first youth,
sat at her sewing.
“Agatha,” said Miss Bruce, curtly,
“I want a shirt made. Very nicely,
now. And you must make it cheap;
do you hear?”
Agatha Fontaine looked up, wist
fully.
“But, Erminia,” said she, “I am
▼ery much hurried just now. Jf you
could wait a week—”
• “ Very well,” said Miss Bruce, with
a toss of her imperial head, “then I’ll
take my materials elsewhere! It’s
always the way with you suffering
p or' If one takes you work you won’t
do it, and then you oome and tell us
all sorts of stories about your priva
tions. But, mark my words, Agatha,
if you refuse to oblige me now I’ll
never employ you again.”
Miss Fontaine sighed softly. Five
years ago she and Erminia Bruce had
shared the same roora in Madame de
Froulignac's fanlbnable a boarding
school and were inseparable friends.
But poor Harmon Fontaine had failed
in business, and recklessly drawn a
razor across his throat, and here was
Agatha toiling for her daily bread, no
less than to support a delicate mother
and a little brother who was ailing
with spinaf complaint And Erminia
had listened with a patronizing air
to Agatha’s humble request for work.
“ I will see what I can do for you,”
she had said, slipping the rich rings
carelessly up and down her fingers.
‘•But amateur needlework is never
quite up to the mark. However, if
you will consider that in your
charges—”
“ I will endeavor to work well and
cheaply,” said Agatha, meekly.
And after she was gone Erminia
laughed exultantly.
’* It’s a regular stroke of good luck
for us, mamma,” said she. "Broken
down gentry always work well and at
quarter prices!”
And so when she turned coldly
away upon this occasion Agatha made
haste to detain her.
"Leave the work, Erminia,” said
she. "It is true that lam very much
hurried just at present, but you have
been very kind to me, and I would not
wittingly disoblige you.”
"It must be hand-made,” said Miss
Bruce, unrolling her parcel, " and very
neatly, mind, and I will pay you fifty
cents.”
"Fifty cents!” echoed poor-Agatha.
“Our usual charge is—”
" I don’t care anything about your
usual charge I” said Erminia, impa
tiently. “If you can’t do it for fifty
cents you needn’t do it at all.”
And she rustled out of the room,
leaving a strong odor of “Buquet de
Caroline ” behind her.
“ Isn’t it strange ?’’ said Agatha to
herself, in a sort of sotto voce.
‘‘lsn’t what strange?” said a pleas
ant voice from the adjoining room,
where Major Trixon was sitting by
Hal Fontaine‘s sick-bed.
“This is the third shirt I have had
brought me to-day to make,” s iid
Agatha, ‘and all in a hurry. I shall
have to sit up till midnight every night
to finish them.”
“ Indeed I” said Major Trixon.
"One is from Miss Ida Hedge, and
one from her sister Bertha,” said Aga
tha ; “and now Miss BruCe—”
‘ Miss Bruce, eh?” said the major.
" Can’t she make her own shirts with
out bring ng them here?”
“I don’t know,” sighed Agatha.
" She is the haughty young woman,
I suppose, who was domineering over
you just now?”
“ Yes,” acknowledged Agatha “ Not
that she means to be unkind, but—”
"No, no—of course not,” said Major
Trixon, dryly. " Only she treats you
as if you belonged to an infericr race
of creatures.”
As he spoke he stooped over the bed
and lifted the pillows so as to alter
the invalid’s position.
“ Is that any easier, my little man ?’’
said he. “ And now the doctor is here
I will leave you for awhile.”
“ Indeed, sir,” said poor Mrs. Fon
taine, “ you are very kind !”
"Kind?” he repeated, brusquely.
“Nothing of the sort. Kind? Ought
we not all to be kind to each other ?
And now good-evening 1”
He paused a minute, however, by
Agatha’s table.
" So,” said he, “ these are the shirts I”
And with a delicate pencil he drew
a tiny cross in blue lead
ma 1 I—. ■_ <
’• These are what you call the neck
bindings, aren’t they?” said he. “ That
mark will do no harm. See, it is so
small that no one would notice it but
ourselves. I only Wnt to identify
these articles if I should eYetsefcthem
again. Good-evening, Miss Agatha.'
Mind you don’t sit- too close at your
needle!”
And the major took his brown face
and sturdy, tall figure out of the twi
light room.
The shirts came to the Westefn
packing-bolt in dfietimb. Major Trixon
eyed them critically.
"My old motlier used to say,” said
he, “ that a well-made shirt was the
criterion of a woman’s ability to make
a good wife. These shirts a-e dis
graces to th 3 Portville gifls—ail ex
cept thfee, and each one of the three
is marked with a tiny blue cross on the
inside of the neck binding.”
And Major Trixon chuckled as he
packed the shirts into the big, wooden
box.
He met Miss Briice oh the favorite
prumefiade an hour or so subsequent
ly. She smiled sweetly into his face.
“ I hope you were suited with the
shirt, major,” she said.
“It was beautifully made.” be an
swered.
"lean assure yoh, 1 ’ she simpered,
*’ that I worked most diligently uport
it.”
His dark eyes seemed for a minute
to read her very sou'.
Involuntarily she blushed and
turned her face away-.
” Can h 3 know,” she thought, “ that
I sent it to Miss Fontaine to be made?”
The velvet-eyed Hedge twins were
not far off; they a Ivanced to meet him,
with cherry cheeks and plumed hats to
match.
"Oh, Major Trixon,” said they, "did
you get the shirts? And did you find
out that we didn’t make ’em at all ?
Mamma would be horrified if she knew
that we told you. But we couldn’t
get the gussets and the gores right, and
we pricked our fingers, and lost cur
tempers, and
“And so you sent them 'o Miss
Fontaine, eh?” laughingly questioned
the major.
“How did you know?” said Ida,
With wide open eyes.
"But don’t tell mamma,” added
Bertha.
" Oh, I know a good many things,” j
said the major, smiling. "And I'
assure you that your secret is quite
safe with me.”
Agatha Fontaine was walking
ibsently along, with her face bent
townward and her eyes fixed on the
ground. She scarcely saw the major
intil he paused in front of her ; then '
ler cheek kindled into sudden fire.
“Major Trixon!” she cried. “The
zery one I wanted to sea !”
“Can I l>e of any service, Miss
Fontaine?”
“ The doctor’s bill,” she said, color
ng. “It is so much more than we
ixpected ; and—and If you would lend
is a little, Major Trixon, I should be
o glad to repay it in sewing!”
“ I will lend you the money, Miss
Fontaine,” he said; “ but as for
ewing—”
" Your housekeeper may find some
hing for me to do,” said she, wist
ully.
He turned.
“Let me walk along by your side,”
aid he. “ Let me tell you, Miss Fon
atne, how closely I have studied your
haracter since first Rideau took me
oy« ur sick brother’s bedside. Let me
onf ess to you how dearly I have learned
o love you—bow truly to respect your
noble nature. lam a rough, brusqu
old fellow, I know, but I believe

but allow me to hope for your love?*
° But me !’* cried she, breathlessly—
“me, who am but a poor sewlng J
girl I”
“ I love you,” he said, simply. “ I
could do no more than that if you were
a crowned queen.”
So he married her, and the once
poverty-stricken family live in the
brown house now opposite the park,
where hot-house flowers scent the
rooms, and birds sing to amuse the
crippled boy, while every luxury
smooths his early-saddened path.
And Miss Erminja Bruce neves
knew that her deceit about the special
unit of the twelve shirts, which had
fallen to her lot, was the straw which
turned the current of Major Trixon’a
fancy. He liked and admired her be*
fore; he could never do so again. And
Agatha Fontaine was so good, and in.

How Plaster Casts are Taken.
A New York artist in plaster waj
asked by a Tribune reporter: “Does
any one ever come here to have a cast
made of an arm or hand or a leg? and
what is the process and time taken?”
" We have frequent calls for casts of
hands; not so much for arms and legs.
The casting varies in regard to the
time, a leg or an arm taking much
longer, of course, than a foot or a
hand. The process, however, is the
same in all these cases. First, the
hand is covered with plaster from an
inch to an inch and a half thick. We
wait till this settles and grows luke
warm, perhaps twenty minutes in the
case of a hand. Then with a string
the plaster is cut into sactions and re
moved. It is now put together again,
the inside hollow having the exacl
shape, lines and thickness of that part
of the body to which the plaster was
applied. The hollow is next washed
with oil, because we are now to till it
with plaster, and this must not be al
lowed to stick (as it would without
the oil) to the outside plaster first put
on. Then the mold, thus filled, is
laid away, for five hours or so in the
case of a hand. Afterward the work
man chisels away the outside plaster,
working down to the hand formed
within. This, of course, requires care
and delicacy lest the inside hand be
cut. The chiseling takes a half a day,
and the whole operation consumes a
day. Two days are required for a leg
or an arm.”
“For what purpose,” asked the re
porter, “are these casts generally
made?”
*‘Fof personal gratification, or for
surgical operations—a surgeon fre
quently finding a cast of a distorted or
diseased limb useful for study before
the operation is performed. Also, you
know, art schools need them tor ana
tomical study. A ca t Is copied in
marb'e Sometimes.”
“ Is the mask of the human face evet
taken from life?”
“Yes.it is done. We have taken
such a mask several times, though we
dislike it, and will probably refuse to
do so again. The plaster is put on in
three sections separately, the space
around the mouth forming one
and a line reaching from the center of
the forehead down to the tip of the
nose dividing the rest of the face into
two secti ns. A small pipe is passed
through to the nostril for breathing
purposes. The plaster is likely to stick
to any hairs on the face, add.hpf’t® A
*~'"“e —***
c<»v is overelgnt times as mucn as for
a band, so you see that we regard it as
a matter requiring great care.”
“I suppose you are called upon tn

*’ Fes, afld busts; tod. 'fhe cost of
these is rather high; $l5 for the mask
and $5O for the bust, but we have had
a number of calls in that department
of our work. This operation requires
more time than others, a half day being
needed for applying and removing the
plaster, and then three days more for
the mask and a week for the biist;’*
A Practical Yeung Woman.
It is surprising how many educated
and accomplished ladies there are act
ually engaged in business in New
York city. While d ning at. the house
Of ft frifind I was intro luced to a vi
vacious young lady whose airy graces
suggested the manners of a Parisian
belle. She received considerable at
tention from th? hostess, and it was
with much astonishment I afterward
learned that she was chief director of
it downtown type-writer office. “You
may well be interested,’’ remarked my
friend. “She is a granddaughter of
Louis D. Henry, for many years a com
missioner of Spanish affairs in Wash
ington. Her lather, General D. K.
Mcßae, wai oilce a Candidate fdr the
governorship of North Carolina, and
during President Buchanan’s adminis
tration was consul general in Paris.
He also brought to this country the
celebrated Ostend d'spatches. With
wealth and a cultivated, generous
mind he determine ! to give hts daugh?
ter a finished e location, and accord-,
ingly tutors were provided her during
his family residence in Italy and
France.”
The child was undoubtedly predo
bibus-. if not remarkable, for one day
when she was visiting the Vatican,
Pope Pius was so attracted by her
ways that he gave her his blessing add
a pontifical smile. Notwithstanding
the good will of the Holy Father, mis
fortunes came. Her family’s entire
e tat? was swept away, and two years !
ago she determined to start for her
self. Coming to New York she rented
a little office and began her metropoli
tan career with one little type-writer.
It is a perilous task for an inexperi
enced Woman to attempt to earn a
living in A great city like NbW Yotk,
but success attended the industry of
Miss Mcßae. Lawyers, judges and
other friends of her father showed
their Admiration for the pluck of the
Southern girl by giving her assistance
and reference, and work came in so
rapidly that she soon had a dozen
machines in a large, airy office, up
holstered with Parisian fabrics, where
to-day she does the largest type
writing business in t:.e city, and has
been appointed principal agent for
the sale of machines. Judge Dillon
told me the other day that her work
gave satisfaction in his office, and he
congratulated the ex-consul-general
to Paris in having so practical and.
accomplished a daughter. Ptrhaps,
after all, it is by industry that the

It is a forecastle notion that the petrel
is so named from St. Peter, < n account
of its running with closed wings over
the surface of the waves. This brought
to mind the walking of St. Peter upon

bird was therefore called “ petrel ” as

No Reflections on Washington.
An ambitious man being elected to
a AVestern legislature prepared with
gredteare a speech which bethought
would impress his colleagues and please
his constituents. lie waited for a fit
ting occasion, and then, rising, began:
“Mr, Speaker: When I reflect on
the chara ter of General Washington
—” and came to a sadden stop. Be
ginning again, he said:
“Mr. Speaker: When 1 reflect on
the character of General AV ashington
—’’ and again the failure of his mem
ory brought him to a sudden halt.
For the third time he attempted to
([O on, but got no further than “ AVash
ngton.’’
“I rise to a point of order, Mr.
Speaker!” exclaimed a waggish mem
ber. “It is not in order for a member
of this house to be making reflections
on the Character of General AVashing
ton.”
This shot brought down the house
and the forgetful member.
Crimps in Swimming.
In a letter sent to the New York
iSttn the writer says: Cramps are
brought on chiefly by the bather going
into the water overheated and staying
in too long. To avoid cramps one
should bathe frequently and not stay
in too long—that is, over fifteen min
utes —until such time as he has be
come so accustomed as to fear no dan
ger. In case of any one being taken
with Cramps in the water, a safe way
out of the danger is to keep your pres
ence of mind, turn over on your back,
and float until you feel the cramps re
lax, then resume swimming gently,
not violently. Repeat this as often as
the circumstances may require, and by
fio doing you will escape the danger
■usually accompanying cramps. This
remedy I know to be safe, having been
several times taken with cramps in
the water, and each time resorted to it
with safety.

The following lynopais of s lecture de
livered by Dr. Horace R. Hamilton before
the New York society for the promotian of
science, contains so much that is timely and
important that it can be read with both in
terest and profit:
There io probably no subject of modern
times that has caused and is causing greater
attention than the origin of tornadoes. Sci
entists have studied it for the benefit of hu
manity; men have investigated it for the
welfare of their families. It has bean a
vexed subject long considered, and through
all this investigation the cyclone has swept
across the land, carrying destruction to sci
entists as well aa to the innocent dwellers in
Its track. One th ng, however, is certain;
the cause of the cyclade must M sought fai
away from the whirling body of wind itself.
Its results are powerful; its cause must also
be powerful. Let us there Tore consider a
few facts. First, the appearance of a cy
clone is invariably precede ! by dark spots
upon the facs of the sun. These spots, in
dicating a disturbed condit on of the solar
regions necessarily affect the atmosphere of
out eirth. An unushil generation of heat
in one part of the atmo-Jherd is eertiin to
ciuse a part al vacuum in another portion;
Air must ru:h in to fill this vacuum. Henca
tho distai bances—! ence the cyclone. 1 his
theory findi additional confirmation in the
fact that tomadce; come daring the day and
nit at night The dark spots upon tie sur
face of ths sun, whatever they may be, seem
to cause great commotion in the atmosphere
of the world, and it is almost certain that
the extremely wet weather of the present
p awn cm be ac.o nted for on precisely this
b: si;. Is it reasonable to suppose t' al the
marvelous effect of the sun upon vegetation
and life in general shall be less th m upon
the atmosphere itself through which its rays
come ? Ihe cause is remote, but the effect
is here.
After describing some of the terrible ef
fects of the cyc'one, the speaker went on to
say:
This rule finds its application in nearly
every department of life. An operator is in
San Francisco—the click of the instrument
manipulated byh s fingers, in New York.
The president mal Si a slight stroke of the
pen in his study at the White House, and the
whole nation is aroused by the act. An un
easiness end disgust with everything in life,
commonly called home-sickness, is felt by
many people, when the cause is to be found
in the distant home thousands of miles
away. An unceitiin pain may be felt in the
h ad. It is repeated in other parts of the
toly. The appetite departsand all energy
is gone. Is the cause necessarily to be found
in the head? The next day the fesling in
creases. There are added symptoms. They
continue and become mdre aggravated.
The slight pains in the head increase to acO
n es. The nausea becomes chronic. The
heart grows irregular, and the breathing un
certain. All these effects have a definite
cause, and, after years of deep experience
upon this subject, I do not hesitate to say
that this oause is to be found in some de
rangement of the kidneys or liver far a.v ay
from that portion of the body in which these
effects appear. But one may say, I have no
pain whatever in my kidneys or liver. Very
tiuo. Neither have wfe any evidence that
there is a tornado on the surface of the sun;
but it is none the less certain that the tor
nado is here, and it is none the less certain
that th. fie great organs of the body are the
cause of the trduble although there may bo
no pain in their vicinity. ,
I know v her. of I speak, for I nave pass d
through this very experience myself. Neatly
ten years ago I was the picture of health,
weighing more than 200 pounds, and as
strong and healthy as any man I ever knew.
W hen I felt the symptoms I have above de
scribed they caused me annoyance, not only
by reascii of their aggravating nature, but
because I bad never felt any pain Fe'Orfl.
Other doctors told me I was troubled With
malaria, atd I treated myeelf acoorcingly.
I did not believe, however, that malaria
could show such aggravated symptoms. It
never occurred to me that analysis would
he p solve the trouble, as I did mt presume
my difficulty was located in rbat portion of
the body. Bat I continued to grow worse.
1 had a faint sensation at the pit of my
stvmach nearly every day. I felt a great
desire to eat, and yet I loathed food. I was
constint'y t red, ani still I could not sleep.
My brain was ufiusual y active, but I could
n< t think connectedly. My Ciistence was a
living misery. I continued io this condition
for nearly a year; never free from pain,
never for a moment happy. Such an exist
ence is far wone than death, for which I
•onfess I earnestly longed.
It was while stiff, r.ng thus that a friend
advised me to make a final attempt to re
cover my health. I sneered inwardly at his
suggestion, but I was too weak to make any
resistance. He furnished ma with a remedy,
simple yfit palatable, and Within two, days I
observed a slight change for the better. This
awakened my courage. I felt that I would
not cfike *1 tKs J Lima J Mnti»wkf tfte ,
the remedy, taking it in accordance with
directions, until I became not only restored
to my former health and strength, but of
greater vigor than I have ever before known. I
This condition has continued up to the pres- ’
ent time, and I believe I should have died as
misd-ab|y as thousands of other men have
died and are dying every day had it not been ,
for the simple yet wonderful power of War- '
ner's Safe Cure, the remedy I employed.
The lecturer then described his means of
restoration more in detail, and concluded as
follows :
My complete recovery has cause 1 me to
investigate the subject more carefully, and I I
believe I h ive discovered the key to most
ill health of our modem civilization. lam
fully confident that four-fifths of the disea ei
which afflict humanity might be avoided
were the kidneys and liver kept in peffedt
condition. Were it possible to c mtrol the
action of the sun, cyclones could undoubt
edly be averted. That, however, is one of
the things that cannut be. But I rejoice to !
say that it is possible to control the kidneys ’
and liver, to ten ler their actio a wholly nor- I
mal and their et® t upO r the system that of
purifiers lather than poiemers. That thia
end has been accomplished largely by means
of the remedy I have named I do not have 8

I have bean troubled for over twelve years
with a weakness of the kidneys and bladder.
; which the docton said was diabetes. I could
not at times stand up, and would have to
. continually uss the urinal both day and night
with intense pains in my back afid sides
: there was brick dust deposits in my water;
could not rest well or lie easily in bed in any
posture. I was at that time employed by the
Maine Central Railroad, and had to give up
work for a time. Fearing that it would sooner
or later turn to that dreaded Bright’s disease,
I called in my son in Lewiston, who is in the
drug business, and after consulting with him
as to my case, be advised me to use Hunt’s
Remedy, as he knew of so many successful
cures that it bad made in Lewiston and
vicinity. lat once commenced using it, and
I began to improve. I had lees pain in my
I back and sides, my water was passed naturally
, with less color and no pain, and after using
several bottles found that my pains were all
gone ana tbs weakness of the kidneys and
bladder wexe cured, and I have no trouble
with them now, and can attend to my busi
ness; and for one of my years I sm enjoying
good health, and thanks to Hunt’s Remedy
for it, and I consider it a duty and pleasure
to recommend so good a medicine as Hunt’s
Remedy, and I have taken pains to recom-
: mend it to others in this vicinity.

The Peculiar Ortl Mystery!
It was one of the peculiarities of the old-fashioned Doctors that they
never would tell patients what they were prescribing for them Theywid
it would do the patients no good to know, and that it would only be grati
fying a foolish curiosity. In order to keep patients from knowing, they
would write the prescriptions in dog-Latin, so that most patients could not
readthem. All that sort ofthing is now over.
