Canova’s Theseos and Centaur.
I mentioned some time ago toat Ca-
nova’s famous marble group of The ®^?
and the Centaur was being
from the Greek temple erected over it
in the Volksgarten of that city to the
museum of art on the other side
rin" The Centaur was transposed
out difficulty and is already on the
ptrfal which fills the recess of the
landing on the magnificent staircase of
the museum. '
Yesterday the Theseus was laid
one of the low heavy carts built
pressly for the transport of wei hiy
jects, and was drawn through the ^
dens toward the gate. The cart had to
pass over one of the water drains which
ran under the Volksgarten. Thewenght
was too much for the thin vault, which
gave way, and suddenly the cart sank ™
• one side, turned over, and the statue ]

Proud of His Tears.
Among the many venerable men who
registered as voters in Brooklyn for the
Hast election was a tall man with ruddy
countenance and white hair -and beard.
His form was erect, and he would easily
be taken for a man of 60.
As he approached the registry clerk
and announced his name there was a
general craning of necks to catch a
glimpse of the proud looking old man.
“What is your age?”
“Eighty-five years.”
“Where were you bom?”
“In Brooklyn.”
“How long have you lived in the state?”
“Eighty-five years.”
“How long in the ward?”
“Eighty-five years.”
“How long in the election district?”
“Eighty-five years.”
“That’s all, sir,” said the clerk, and an
American citizen, who was bom in 1805
in {.he house in which he now lives and
always lived, walked away.—New
York Herald.
Advice to Mothers.
Are you disturbed at night and broken
of your rest by a sick child suffering and
crying with pain of cutting teeth? If so,
send at once and get a bottle of Mrs.
Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Children
Teething. Its value is incalculable. It
will relieve the poor little sufferer im
mediately. Depend upon it, mothers;
there is no mistake about it. It cures
dysintery and diarr uEa, regulates the
stomach and bowels, cures wind colic,
softens the gums, reduces inflammation,
aud gives tone and energy to the whole
system. Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup
for children Teething is pleasant to the
taste, and is tlie prescription of one of
the oldest and best female nurses and
physicians in the United States, and a
for sale by all druggists throughout the
world. Price 25 cents a bottle.
Tongli Sole.
Mrs. Custer reports a story related to
her by a frontiersman which may be
taken as an-amusing illustration of a
very solemn truth. The teller of the
story had stopped at a cabin to get a
supply of milk.
The family consisted of a mother and
several “strapping daughters.” As the
traveler sat by the fire the shriveled old
mother bent over the fireplace puffing at
a day pipe, perfectly stolid and silent,
till one of the girls came in and stood at
the fire trying to dry her homespun dress.
Without raising herself, and in a
drawling tone, the mother said pres
ently, “Sal, there’s a coal nnder*your
fut.”
Tn no more animated tone, and with
out even moving, the daughter replied,
“Which fut, mammy?’
The girl had ran barefoot all her life
over the shale and rough ground of that
country, and the red hot coal was some
time in making its way through the hard
surface to a sensitive tissue.
There’s a patent medicine that is not a
patent medicine—paradoxical as that
may sound. It’s a discovery! the golden
discovery of medical science! It’s the
medicine for you—tired, run-down, ex
hausted, nerve-wasted men and women;
for you sufferers from diseases of skin or
scalp, liver or lungs—its chance is with
e very one, its season always, because it
aims to purify the fountain of life—the
blood—upon which all such diseases de
pend. The medicine is Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. The makers
of it have enough confidence in it to sell
it on trial. That is—you can get it from
your druggist, and if it doesn’t do what
it’s claimed to do, you can get your
money back, every cent of it.
That’s what its makers call taking the
risk of their words.
The Product of the Silkworm.
The thread of the silkworm is so small
that an average of forty-two of them are
twisted together to form a thread of
common sewing silk; that of the spider
is many diameters smaller. Two
drams of spider web by weight would,
if stretched into a straight line, reach
from London, England, to Edinburgh,
Scotland, a distance of over 400 miles.—

Wade Wilfong, colored, thrashed a
school teacher in Pasquotank‘county,

A new material called rubber velvet
is made by sprinkling powdered felt of
any color over rubber cloth while the
latter is hot and soft. The result looks
like felt cloth, but is elastic, waterproof

From despair to joy.
ICIie Painful Story of a Lovely Lady,
and Sow She Finally Secured Hap
piness.
Mrs. Morton D. Harlan, residingTat Mo. 63
West 25th Street, New York City, has" passed
through a most wonderful experience. Mrs.
Harlan had a happy home
and through her devotion to
her home duties over-taxed
her strength. She had de>
ressed feelings^ entire lack
'of energy in life, and finally
a cough at night and morn
ing which grew worse each
day. Upon looking in the
she saw dark circles under her eyes and
found that she was growing thinner and losing
all interest in life. This painful state of things
continued for months until finally she became
so weak she could not attend to her duties and
was confined to her bed the greater part of the
time. One day Mrs. Harlan’s very dear
very dear friend
Mrs. Willard called and was amazed to see her
bo wan and faded. Two bright hectic spots
„ wwi
stood upon each cheek, her lips were blue,
her face pinched and drawn, and there was a
“ jus look in her eyes. Mrs. Willard knew
^ meant consumption and her heart was
touched for her friend. At her earnest request,
the use of an English Rem
edy for consumption was
tried. At the start very
little effect could he seen, so
great an inroad had the dis
ease made, but by degrees
Mrs. Harlan began to regain
her lost appetite, then her
itrength, then her hope,
then Her health, and she is to
day In perfect physical con
dition, wholly as a resalt of
the use of Dr. Acker’s Eng
lish Remedy for Consump-.
ion. 1
The lesson of this simple story should be plain
to all. No man or woman can afford to neglect
those first symptoms of consumption, which
teem so slight but which becomes so terrible
unless taken in time. This Great Remedy has
laved the lives of hundreds of well known men
and women who were on the verge of the grave
from consumption but who are well and happy
iO-day. It is sold universally.

several hundred dollars. A few dsji
ago this fine dog was run over byfl

was crushed off, leaving a piece-of I

Mr. Brown hated to kill his ’
and faithful dog. so he got Dr. A. Mc
