An Old Time Remedy. One of the simplest and most effi cacious remedies kuowu for sore throat, congestion of the lungs, hoarseness ond, indeed, all throat or lung troubles is made as follows: Procure from any carpenter a piece of pitch or “fat” pine—that is, pine wood that is heavy’ and discolored with the resinous sap of the treo Shave ibis wood very thinly, place ihe shavings or chips in n saucopan, cover them with dark brpwu sugar (granulated will do if the other can not- be procured) and pour in enough water to cover the whole to a depth of two or three ruches. Then sot the vessel on the stove and let the mixture boil very slowly, stirring occasionally; ami when the resulting syrup is the color of ordinary tnolus ses, but not quite us thick, remove trom tbo fire, attain and bottle se enrely. A table spoonful of this syrup, which is kuowu as “Light w-ood Syrup,” taken three times a I iv, or, iu case of a very severe cold, once every two or three 1 hours, will be surprisingly curative ami comforting. The Grain Blockade at, Burling ton. Burlington, lo., “Although mil lions oi bushels of graiu have beoD taken away from Chicago eastward, we don't seom to feel any let-up the blockade out here,’ said u rail road offiicial to-day. “The roads are exeiting themselves to clear the grain, but it pours in unceasingly, uud as fast as removed by Eastern lines we choke Chicago up. To-day 500 cars of grain crossed the Mis- sissipi for Chicago from Iowa points, and the officials are advising farmers to store their gram as a possible solution to the situation. They will have to crib their corn for a while, at least, us the moving; of it will be out of question; Wej could use 5,000 more cars and 100, more engines.” j The residents pf South TlmUiastou niv, in coumiou with other Maine const dwellers, rather behind in the march of progress, nnd it doesn't require milch to startle them. The other day n steamer passing White Head blew very n long blast from her peculiar Bounding ohime whistle, whereat the villagers marveled greatly, hut at night they were posi tively frightened. A steam yacht in the lmrbor displayed tin electric reflecting light, illuminating the se.-., sky and land, and not a few of the unsophisticated na tives, remembering the unearthly shrieks of the strange steamer, coupled the two events and concluded that the universe was about to collapse. The innocence of the-so people will not 9ecm so very strange when it is remem bered that many of the natives of Mon- hegtiu and other coast tsliinun have never seen a horse*.-a train of cars or a brick house, never having set foot upon tlm mainland, There is a man o’n Monlie- gan island who knows the Boston and Bangor, the New York and Bangor and nil the other steamers that pass the island by sight, Imt although nearly seventy years old, ho has never been on boardof any kind of a stoum craft, and lias not the slightest conception of an engine. It is not vary long since a few acroB of rocky soil in outer Casco bay, kuowu ns Basket island, was deserted by the only popple.- who t-ver had the courage to live there—an old fisherman, his wife and daughter. Tlu-ke people lived in au old tiftnblc down rookery on tho little wind swept isle, and were veritable hermits. AS U.\Xri.Tl'l!F.b MAID. Tlm man li; lied, while his wife aud daughter carried on tho farming opera tions, which consisted iu harvesting what l-ttlo coarse hay tho island afford ed and carrying it on poles to the cow shed. They had no garden, not even a patch of potatoes, hut were merely torl- vr.'gof the sea. Thu wife had not visited tho mainland for seventeen years, while tlio daughter hud passed tho entire six teen years of her life upon tho lonely spot, although tho city of Portland was almost in eight. Thu girl was bright, hut untutored; pretty, Imt miserably chid. Elm wore no stockings aud knew nothing of hats, Tho only relative she knew of outside tbo family circle was a half sister, who sho had never seen. Her father said that this other daughter lived “out 'Vest." Him lived in Konnebnnkport, York county. Thin daughter of tho sen. much to the surprise of some yachtsmen who once landed on the island, was able to play several popular uirs upon un old accordion, Dim hud picked the music out by ear after heartiig it played by tho bands of passing excursion Steamers. A party of picnickers who landed there found flas ket island deserted. The matted gra.-s was alive with iiehl mice, ami gulls perched boldly upon the rotting window sills of tho old house, while in one corner lay tho dilapidated accordion which laid long beeu the chief consolation of the lonely fisher maiden. There is, perhaps, no more lonely spot on the whole Atlantic coast of Ihe United States than Isle ail limit, which lies far seaward off .the entrance to Penobscot bay. Tho name given to this island by the early French voyagers is most appro priate, for it looks like a mountain half submerged in tho sea. The peopleairo a simple, primitive set, and few of them over visit tho mainland. The island, with its fish and sheep and bluuberribs, is their world, and within its limited circle they art) content. DISCONTENTED. Soino queer specimens of humanity are to b-o found on Isle hu limit. Not long ago u yachting party went down there on a fishing trip, and after catch ing enough cod for n chowder went ashore to procure some milk. The yachtsmen booh fell in with u weather beaten native who was looking along tho shore, and ho informed them that they could get plenty of milk, but that they would have to wait until his wife, who had gono blueberrying, returned aud milked the cows. The native led tho way over rocky pastures to u dilapi dated cottage, and ushered them into tho kitchen to awuit th8 return of “Ma ria." Tho floor was scrubbed as white as a iihui-o’-war's deck, the cookstove was brightly polished uud a little plot before tho windows was gay with marigolds end other homely flowers—all tho re sult of Marta’s patient industry. The lord and master sat himself down upon the doorstep and thus ruminated while bu.rtly whittling a shingle and sending up clouds of smoke from a short clay irpe. “Times ain’t us they used to bo in lie er Holt (tlio native pronunciation). Time was when a man might get a liviug here abouts. Fisliin was good ’n fannin cbusid’ubie-good, but that’s all gone now. Used ter be a good wharf in this here cove ’u a good fleet or vessils outer here, but that’s all gone now. My father used tor bo in trade hero—had a store down there ’n sold nigh a'most every thing, but that's all gone now." He said that ho had been trying to sell his place —house, barn, land, cows and all, for he wanted to emigrate to Washington state, He wanted §300 for the whole outfit, aud he stopped smoking long enougli to swear a great oath that ho wouldn’t take a cent less. This man had loafed so long that ho had forgotten how to’work. Ho seemed to feel that somehow ho hud been cheated—that tho world owed him a living, but that the Isle au Hunt was a poor place in which to collect tho debt.—Cor. New York Sun, On the ltrl«1e'« Anti. Mrs. Gregg had. one of tli? prettiest weddings that ever took plnco In the Massachusetts town In which she liven. But the)e was one odd incident of the occasion which a few of her friends who are in the secret r, call with much amuse ment. Although a lady of quiet taste, 1 Mrs. Gregg wqj’o something which cer tainly uq bride ever wore before. Her wedding present from her old friend Dr. Jameson was an exquisite af fair of lace, embroidery and white satin ribbon, which he had brought from Paris, tt came just as the wedding party v were starting for the church. “What a lovely bngt" exclaimed the bride; "i am going to wear it. That will please dear Dr. Jameson:" and slip ping the white satin strings over her arm she thought no more of it until ufter the cerehiofly. “That is a benutiful bng, and so odd. “1 never sawn bag like it. Tho mate rial is beautiful," commented some of her friends, “1 suppose the stylo is new," replied Mrs. Gregg. “Dr. Jameson brought it to mo from Paris. I am delighted with it." "Did you put anything in it?" asked Dr. Jameson, who had beeu listening to this conversation with a smile Hint was suspiciously near n laugh.- "No," replied Mrs. Gregg; “I’ll put my handkerchief iu. What — why — why, there's uo bottom in it. What is It, Dr. Jameson?" “Well," replied Dr. Jameson, bought it for a lamp shade!" And it was a lump shade, edged with lace and drawn up at tho top with white natin ribbon.—Youth's Companion. A Story of (lrn«i-ul l.oyau. “That is a remarkable story about Mrs. John A. Logan," remarked a gen tleman to a party of friends the other evening. “A few mouths before her husband's death she hud been with him to New Mexico for his health, and when they had returned to Chicago u young girl of twenty, who hail been a favorite with Uwnerul Logan since her childhood, came in to see them in tho evening, and lie jokingly asked her what she had learned since lie saw her last. She said she hud been studying palm istry. and he held out his baud aud laughingly told her to read his‘fortune.’ Her face became serious ut the first glance and she told him thut death was marked in it, nnd that unless he changed Ids method of living nnd working and got rest ho would bo in his grave speedily. "Mrs. Logan, who stood by, observed that this revelation hud u disturbing ef fect on her husband, and witli some re assuring remark and a laugh held out her hand nnd told the young lady to read tier hand. The girl took it, looked at tho linos an instant, and burst out crying. ‘Y’ou will ho a widow within six months,’ sobbed the young palmist, dropping tho hand. And in less time than that the nation was mourning the loss of Senator Logan nnd Mrs. Logan was a widow.”—Now York Truth. Klrrtrlcnl Tri-itinimt of Sewi-gc. A paper on “The Electrical Treatment of Sewage" was rend by Mr. W. Web- rter, F. O. S. ut a meeting of the Society of Chemical Industry, in London. This gentleman lias devoted some ten years to expert men ts on tlio problem, and has curi.od out some experiments on iv large scale with the nowage of Salford, which is of bji exceptionally complex character. Ho?ma succeeded in reducing tho albuuiinoid ammonia to .11 part? per 100.000, I bus leaving an cflluotl' which may bo turned into uny ■•tream o- river, llo uses cast iron el-etrodas, find ing that, platinum is too costly, and car bon disintegrates in the presonc* of has cent oxygen nnd chlorine.

Tlio only man who over was too quick for Joe Dye, the had man of Ventura was Petroleum Scott, the old Ventura oil man. a tall, wiry, nervous clmp, who would he the* terror of stenographers if he were a public speaker. Phillips Brooks is a leisurely druwler compared to h’uott. Scott and Dye had a legal con test over an oil claim on the Sespe, uml, while the case was pending. Scott pru dently avoided discussing it with Joe, whose temper aud trigger finger were notoriously quick and apt to act in con cert. Ono day Scott and Dyo inet in Santa Paula and, sitting down at a table to gether, chatted about tilings in general. Scott carefully abstained from talking about oil claims, hut Joe finally broached the subject and made some statement about the records that was not correct. This is tile way Scott tells the story: “Without thinking, 1 said, ‘Joq, you’re a liar,’ and ns soon ns the words were ont of iny mouth he yanked his revolver and stuck it under my noso. Hut I was too quick for him. 1 took it all back before ho could shoot."—San Francisco Argo naut. A Collector of SUclot-m*.

Thu vegetable cook nt Green’s hotel whose name is Mary Murphy, lias been dumb for three years, but recently, being groused to a fit of intense linger by the impudence of a colored waiter named Joe Todd, she suddenly recovered he; speech. Mis,i Murphy is a buxom Irish girl about 25 yeiirs bf age, and sho has been a prominent official in Green'? kitchen for several years. Three years ago sho suffered from a had bronchia' J>ttnek and completely lost her voice. All the employes in tlio kitchen were astounded to hour tho antociat of tin vegetables speak.

Scrofulous Humor— A Culm v “Almost Mlraoulou*.” " When I was 14 years of age 1 had a HUH attack of rheumatism, and after 1 reeomtd had to go on crutches. A year later,scrofula. In the form of white swellings, appeared M various parts of my body, and for 11 year* 1 was an Invalid, being confined tc my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores aw''* pcaicd and broke, causing me great pain aud •uttering. I feared I never ahonld get well. ’ “ Early In 1880 I went to Chicago to visit d sister, but was confined to my lied most of th# tlmo I was there. In July I road a book. • A Day with a Circus,’ In which wore statements of euros by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I woe so ha. pressed with tho success ol this medicine |h »t I decided to try it. To my great gratlflcatkm the sores soon decreased, and I began to feet better nnd In a short tlmo I was up and out of doors. I continued to tako Hood’s Sar saparilla for about a year, when, having used six bottles, I had become so fully released from tho disoaao that I went to work for tbu Flint & Walling Mfg, Co., and since then HAVR NOT LOST A SINGLE DAT on account of sickness.
