John R. Spears In Harper’s demon- strates that General Wayne, commonly | known as “Mud Anthony,” was In i reality the sanest, coolest soldier in Washington’s army. ••They ealletl the hero of Stony Point ; and the Maumee rapids Mad Anthony Wayne.” says Mr. Spears. “The title was originat'd l»y an Irish soldier who had l-eeii confined in tin* guardhouse at ; the order of the general. and it was ; taken up 1 »y the people because of the wild enthusiasm and determination j with which Wayne led his men when the supreme moment of battle came, j Put observe that when the war of the* devolution impended he ‘ransacked his tory* for accounts of battles that he I might lea. ii military tactics, and he gave his days t«» tin* training of his neighbors.

Winter is here in earnest, and with it all the miserable symptoms of Catarrh return—blinding headaches and neuralgia, thick mucous discharges from the nose and throat, a hacking cough and pain in the chest, bad taste in the mouth, fetid breath, nausea and all that makes Catarrh the most sickening and disgusting of all complaints. It causes a feeling of per sonal defilement and mortification that keeps one nervous and anxious while in the company of others. In spite of all efforts to prevent it, the filthy secretions and mucous mat ter find their way into the Stomach and are distributed by the blood to every nook and corner of the system; the Stomach and Kidneys, in fact even- organ attd part of the body, be come infected with the catarrhal poison. This disease is rarely, ifever, even in itsearliest stages, a purely local disease or simple inflammation of the nose and throat, and this is why sprays, washes, powders and the various in haling mixtures fail to cure. Heredity is sometimes back of it—parents have it and so do their children. iit< \v< 1 vah Vi ill t.

Skating is mentioned by a Danish historian about 1131, and Fitzstephen in his “History of London” says that in the twelfth century young men fastened the leg bones of animals un der their feet by means of thongs In order to slide along the Ice. This statement is confirmed by the pair of bom* skates of the period now ill the British museum. It is likely, however, that these eaily Londoners got the idea from Holland, probably via Lin colnshire, where skates have been used on the frozen fens from wry re mote times. record ns a drill master Is unequaled.” A Witty Reply. Whenever the t nltid States supreme court, on hearing the argument of counsel for plaintiff in error, is entirely satisfied that he has no caw*, the chief Justice Is apt to say to counsel for de fendant in error that the court does not care to hear further argument- At one time lion. Matthew Carpenter from Wisconsin was counsel for plaintiff in error and opened the case. Before he was through the court was satisfied that there was nothing in it, and so when he had concluded and counsel for defendant in error arose Chief Jus tice Waite said, “The court does not care to hear any further argument.” Counsel was a little deaf and, al though noticing that the chief justice spoke, did not hear wliat he had said and, turning to Mr. Carpenter, who sat besido him, asked what had been said. “Oh, hang it!” replied Carpenter In tones audible to the bench. “The chief justico said he would rather give you the case than hear you talk.”—Youth’s Companion.

Gentlemen:—I h&dallthe symptoms that accompany this disoase, such as mucus dropping in the throat, a con stant desire to hawk and spit, feeling of dryness in the throat, cough and spitting upon rising in the morning, scabs forming in the nose, which re quired much effort to blow out, some times causing the nose to bleed and leaving me with a sick headache.

In the treatment ot Catarrh, anti- Main and Vla » 8U - Hlchmond, Va - septic and soothing washes are good for cleansing purposes or clearing the head and throat, but this is the extent of their usefulness. To cure Catarrh permanently, the blood must be purified and the system relieved of its load of foul secretions, and the remedy to accomplish this Is S. S. S. which has no equal es a blood purifier. It restores the blood to a natural, healthy state and fhe catarrhal poison and effete matter are carried out ol the system through the proper channels. S. S. S. restores to the blood all its good qualities, and when rich, pure blood reaches the inflamed membrane and is carried through the circulation to all the Catarrh infected portions of the body, they soon heal, the mucous discharges cease and the patient is relieved of the most offensive and humiliating of all complaints. S. S. S. is a vegetable remedy and contains nothing that could injure the most delicate constitution. It cures Catarrh in its most aggravated forms, and cases apparently incurable and hopeless.
