Boston, Feb. 16.—There is probably
no large city under the sun that is s>
persistently, thoroughly and universally
advertised as Boston, and nine times out
of ten it is this that awakens the jeal
ousies of the average New York -r. He
fails to appreciate the “fine, Ita’ian
hand” of the native. The Bostonian,
however, only practices clap trap abroad,
and in his own modest glass house is far
enough from any unwarranted assump
tions. ‘.Boston” shops, “Boston” leans.
“Boston” waltzes, • Boston” gowns, and
a hundred other things which have no
more connection with Boston than the
latter has with the planet of Jupiter,
contribute their quota towards the cod
dling of certain popular delusions. For
my own part I have been unable to dis
cover mo e general erudition or polish
than in any other town of i s size. In
deed, I was more than once impress d
by the memory of that pungent little
narrative told my friend and fellow
Gothamite, Chaunctiy Depew, relating
to the learned New Yorker on his first
visit to the Hub. Entering the city hall
the latter accosted an alderman and a
shining lo.al light, to whom he addressed
a few choice phrases of inquiry, winding
up by requesting the gentleman to direct
him to tire mansion of the noted Holmes.
“Holmes, Holmes?” returned the per
plexed Bostonian. "Begorra, sor I wud
be glad, but—be his name Michael or
Patrick?” It is but justice to add that
fc e foregoing has al.eady been pro
nounced a deep and cowardly libel upon
the fair fame of the direct descendants
of the PuriUms.

Young Jimmy Blaine, whose appren
ticeship in a machine shop was so glibly
herald -d by the newspapers a few weeks
ago, was in town yesterday. It is reallv
too bad to thrust notoriety upon a you h
who is as determined not to court it, as
I believe young Blaine is. No man could
help believing if he watched him
slink across Washington street into the,
alley which leads up to a famous Boston
ho ;telry ,that remorse had not touched the
prodigal. Instead of the windy trousers,
the l.a-hy gaiters, the stout British
alking-stick and the al itudinous neck
wear, tnere was a quietly, almost se
verely dressed young fellow as much
diiferent f.om the J. G. Biaine, jr., of a
year ago, as could well be imagined.
Apropos of this I am told by a gentle
man intimately acquainted, with thr
Blaines, that it is doubtful if young Mrs.
Blaine ever signs with Mr. Irohmant
I jo on the road, as the work of c< ncili *-
uion between the Blaine and Nevins fam
lies is slowly progressing, and the up
slot of the whole will be a reunion of
the couple. Now that the elder Blaine
has fully regained his health ar.d spirits
in a contemplation of a long j erioi of
Washington life, he has decided, no
doubt, that it would be better policy to
over-ride the wishes of his better half,
and make friends with his daughter in
law. Perhaps this visit of Jimmy to
the New England capital may have
something to do with the matter.
kindness, marks of e teem, etc., in the
good, old stereotyped way. The illusiou
of Bardwell Slote had impressed the au
dience, and it seemed impossible that a
character so impudent ana so garrulous
could be downed by such a trivial inci
dent. But Ilorencestopped, turned verv
red, fidgeted vainly with the bottom of
his waistcoat in si’ence for a few mo-
men s, muml-led a few inarticulate syl
lables. and was finally obliged to proceed
with his part. The rest of the com] any
pretended to be overcome by the awk
wardness and timidity of the star’, but I
venture to say the best of them wou d
have made the same “holy show” of him
or herself.

The action of a Boston woman with
whom I have become acquainted will
striue & cruel blow to the female suffrage
cranks over the country.- The eyes of
the latter have been turned very wish
fully toward, this settlement in the last
month or two. but I think it is abo..t de
cided that Massachusetts, ar.d especially
Massachusetts women, does not want
any ballot in Tiers. The Hub's golden-
domed statehouse has echoed with some
very choice arguments pro anl con
female suffrage, and while some of ti e
ladies whose names have almost become
synonymous with prohibition ar.d d ess
reform have demonstated their ability
to make tl'e plaster quake on the ceiling
of the (enate chamber as it never dd un
der 1 hillips and Sumner, it is but justi-e
to say that the best and mest convincing*
came from tie con 6ide of the case. The
lady just alluded to is Mrs. Clara T.
Leonard, one of the two or three women
who have held offices under the 6tate
government. Mrs. Leonard was several
years a member of the .Massachusetts
bcai d of 1 nacy and charity, and her let
ter to the suffrage committee went a
long way and made several converts
among the ardent and chivalrous legis
lators. I should like to state her reasons
for oppo ing the movement if the sub
ject were not already so rent. 1 make
mention of it—Well, simply because I
happen to be in Boston.

To the honest inquirer after truth, wh<V
troubled with some contagious blood dis
ease, seeks a remedy which will com.
pletely eradicate from his system every
germ ot blood poison, that the ones he
loves—his wife and his children—may be
saved, the experience of others comes as
a mighty revelation. Common sense tells
him actual results are the only sure proof
of curative virtue. Read the following
true testimony:
Twelve years ago I contracted a terri
ble case of blood poisoning. My afflic
tion was truly hornble. I had no appe
tite, did not sleep well at night, my diges
tion was impaired, my throat was full o£
ulcers. and in fact I was a total wreck.
I had been under the treatment of several
of the leading physicians of Atlanta;
tried nearly every blood remedy adver
tised ; went to Hot Springs, where I re
mained several months, receiving no ben
efit whatever—the dread disease still dung
to me.
Three years ago I was laid up with
rheumatism. My knees were drawn up
in such a position that I could not leave
my bed for months.
Last summer the disease seemed to re
new its attack upon me with all the rav
ages of death. My life was a lingering
torture, and I had despaired of ever get
ting well when a friend of mine recom
mended B. B. B. I began to use It at
once, and find myself permanently cured.
I refer to Rev. C. C. Davis, Dr. John G.
Westmorland, Dr. Knott, Garrett & Bra,
and numerous others who know of my
case. I cheerfully recommend B. B.
for I really believe it is the best medicine
for the blood in the world.
Jas. L. Bosworth, Atlanta, Ga.
During the month of February I bought
one bottle of B. B. B for my four-year old
boy, who had what doctors term heredi
tary blood poison, and to my utter aston
ishment one bottle cured him. In Feb
ruary tny elder son, twelve years of age,
was literally covered with ugly sores on
his legs, and a terrible eruption on his
head. He was cured with two bottles of
B. B.B. As a quick blood cleanser it has

Yesterday I attended a banquet in
honor of Mr. R. M. Field, one of Amer
lea’s old-rime theatrical managers. As
he is directly responsible for the great
and unique success attending the Boston
Museum for the past twenty-five years
it was thought meet thac Mr. 1 ield
should be tendered something fittingly
commemorative of the anniversary.
Many notables were present, including
Gov. Ames, ex-Gov: Rice. W. W. Clapp,
three or four ex-mayors, and the pre.ent
head of the m nic'.pal government, Mr.
Hart. That they, gave the venerable
manager a rattling Bend-off was to have
been expected of a people who appre
ciate good, pure theatricals, and the
man who has so generonly provided
them. It tvas at this playhouse that
some of the greatest stars on our Amer
lean stage received theirfi. sc plaudits,
and their descendants and successors
were not slow to express what was in
their minds. More than one tough
skinned Thespian, in his earl.er career,
more used to the buffets of the world
than its caresses, owes his success to the
kindness and generosity of Mr. field.
Many members of his present stock com
pany, I rightly wot, drawing good sala
ries for little exert'on,would h ive a ha: d
■job if they ever went on the road.
Several however, are first-class a tors,
and would make a reputation anywhere.
But i'll, from h'gheot to lowest, did their
very best to than 1 ; Mr. Field for the ex
cellent wa-' he had managed them since
ther connection with his house, and
making allowances for the little defer
ences- in eate And oratory displayed by
each, I think they all were in downright

And. by the way, isn’t it a little queer
how all-important it is to actors or ac
tresses whether t!:ey are speaking their
own lines or that of the plavright’s. I
suppose bntli Hud on and Wilson, the
very clever comedians, had their little

A Remarkable Head Carried by a J.ittle
New Hampshire Child.
Hat'Ovep, N. H.. Feb. 16.—The Dart
mouth m.di al college has found a re
markable case of chronic liv drocepliahis,
or water on the brain. The : ubject is a
child which has just died, aged thirty-
two months. At birth the child’s head
was of normal s-ize. but in about two
weeks it began to enlarge. When twen
ty-e'g'nt months old tn? cli Id weighed
fifty-two pounds, and the head was e.ti
mated to weigh forty-to fifty pounds.
The dim nsions of the head were as fol
lows: following the longitud nal sinus
from the root of the Lose to occipital
protuberance, forty-two inches; outer
canthus to top of frontal bone, seven
inches; to ver ex, twelve inches; from
one ear to the other o er vertex, twenty-
seven and cne-half inches; from n -ck to
top of occipital b ne, fifteen inches; dis-
tance bet we n temporal bones across an
terior fontanel, ten aim one half inches.
No treatment is possible in such cases
except tapping tne accumulation of
liquid in the cerebrum, and this would
ha-e been fatal. The child was never
weaned, and after the first two weeks o.
swelling was unable to support the tre
mendous weight alone or hold its head
erect. The only symptoms of intelligence
given in the litt'e sufferer was after the
head had so enlarge 1 as to draw up the
lower lids and almost clo e the eyes,
when it would lift its hand and attempt
to draw down the tightened skin.
RESCUED HER BOY.
A Mother's Heroism Saves Her Son From a
Watery. Death.
Beatrice, Neb., Feb. 16.—Everybody
here is talking about the heroi m of Mrs;
C. W. Jackson, who sv.ed her 1 ttle Loy
from drowning in the Blue river yester
day.
The child, which is 5 years old, walked
out on the soft ice, when it gave way
and he went under. Mrs. Jackson saw
the accident and rushed out. but when
she had almost reached the child the ice
gave way and the fell into the water,
which is about 10 feet deep at that point.
As she was sinking she soized h Id of the
ice and managed to struggle to her feet.
Just as the child was about to sink for
the second time she got the I oy in her
arms and ran a short distance, wlie.i the
ice gave way a second time. Again she
kept i im out of the water with ouehaud
and with the aid of the other succeeded
in rea hing the shore, where she fell un
consc’ous, and was taken care of by
neighbors.

I had 24 running
6on the other, . .
I believe I actually swallowed a barrel of
medicine in vain efforts to cure the dis
ease. With little hope, I finally acted on
the urgent advice of a friend, and got a
bottle of B. B. B. 1 experienced a change
and my despondency was somewhat dis
pelled. I kept using it until I had taken
sixteen bottles, and all the ulcers, rheuma
tism, and other horrors of blood poison
have disappeared, and at last I am sound
and well again, after an experience o£
twenty years of torture.

Kennesaw, Ga., Sept 11,1687.
B. B. B. Company—My Dear Sir:
I take great pleasure in acknowledging
the great benefit my wife has derived from,
yonr great and wonderful medicine, B. B.
B. F or two years she was a great suf
ferer from Scrofula, or some blood dis
ease which had lain dormant all her life.
We had attention from some of the most
skillful physicians in the country, but all
to no effect, until we had all despaired of
her ever recovering. Her mouth was one
solid ulcer, and lor two months or more
her body was broken out with sores until
she lost a beautiful head of hair, also eye
lashes and eye-brows; in fact, she seemed
to be a complete wreck.
Now comes the great secret which I
want all the world to know: That three
bottles of Blood Balm medicine has done
the work which would sound incredible to
any one who did not know it to be so.
To-day my wife is perfectly healthy and
clear from any scrofulous taint, and she
now has a three-month-old babe, also per
fectly healthy. Very respectfully
Hi L. CassSdt.

This is to certify that three years ago I
had my left leg amputated four inches
below the knee, caused by blood poison
and bone affection. After it w^s. ampu
tated there came a running ulcer on the
end of it that measured 3% inches one
way and 4)4 inches the other, and con
tinued growing worse every day until a
short time ago. I was given up to die by
the best doctors in Charlotte. I heard of
the wonderful B. B. B. 1 resolved to try
that. My weight at the time 1 com-
irenced B. B. B. was 120 pounds;. When
I had taken three bottles. I gained 87
pounds in weight; when 1 had taken
twelve bottles I was sound and well, but
continued taking until I had taken, fifteen
bottles. J now weigh-180 pounds and
measure five feet and three inches high.
I contend that your medicine has no equal
as a blood purifier. It certainly worked
like a charm. (12> UR. WiLSOV.
