Tricks of Summer Boarder*. There is no end to the mean and potty tricks that some summer boarders play. From the moment they enter your house they seem to do nothing but scheme how they can get more than they pay for. If they see that there is an unoccupied room they will ask that the children bo allowed to use it fill it is let, and if they once get possession they wiU do their best to prevent its being lot I am considered unreasonable and un¬ feeling if I object to my hall and parlor be¬ ing made into a playground. And if the visiting “darlings” like to throw stones at the cow or chase the chickens, they ought to be allowed these cuuntry amusements Of coursc each family would like to keen a box of beer or some temperance drink i:i f ile ice chest, and when such a thing is declared impossible, remarks are raado about “being no mean with a little bit of ice.” The orchard and fruit garden must be free to the boarders, whO waste or spoil three times as much aa thi>y could eat if the fruit were properly picked. My sugar bowls used to be nightly emp¬ tied to sweeten lemonade, and my water cooler roblxjd of the ice in ordtfr tocool the same. I have now to lock my dining room as soon us a meal is over, and the lid of my water cooler is securely fastened down. Let the boarding house keeper beware of the young baby who is staled not to ro quire food supplied by the house. After the first meal the young mother says, «bl‘k dw l»br “’try n little.” You assent, and the next morn S,, K t! >« f<!™> mother calmly asks your ser vaut “where the baby s milk is.”—‘Tho Epoch. Shavitiff tin a Fiat Train. A gcnilal young man was talking at the University club with t* circle of friendu about men who jJOHNes^Ml that rare desid¬ eratum called nerve. “Why, do you know,” he went on to nay, “last spring I was on a Baltimore and Ohio train going to Washington. The train was spinning along at the liveliest rate, throwing tho rear car. In which we ucre sitting, first on one side and then on another in a crock¬ ing-! ho-whip sort of wu'v, nuikiug it al¬ most impossible to walk ;Yt the nfine with¬ out being precipitated Fiokmtly into u seat. Then, in the rear euvl of the ettr ih the gentlemen’s dressing* vooui, I saw a .nan with nerve. lie was quietly stropping hiB rarer and preparing lather for nhavlhg. It wan a brotul, old fashioned blada, bright as a silver pocket piece, “Ain’t afraid of cutting yonr throat,?” I turutred. “No, not a bit of it. Just wait ami see naemow this wire stubble; R beats a iulk'thg bar¬ ber all to pieces.” Calmly he lathered his face, and, steadying hitmfte.14 With his left hand, he took the razor nr.vl com¬ menced the downward cut with the right. The car was jumping and seemed ns if it would leave thd rails at any moment. With a firm and steady hand the young man bent to his work without fe.iror trembling, and succeeded In getting a clean shave without a single cut .or mui blance of a scratch. The porter came in while this exhibition was taking place, and, with an astonished face, esedWtinm L, “Golly! mister, yous got a heap of nerve, .b* wiost 1 ever did sec.”—Chicago Jtofrttal. Mr 8 .

Prom the Albany X. Y Esprea*. * ., For many years my wile nad been the victim of nervous dyspepsia,’of the chronic, distressing and apparently in¬ curable type from which so many of her sex suffer, languish and die. It was all the worse because the tendency to it was inherited. She had been under the systematic treatment of many of the best physicians in New York and Brook¬ lyn and elsewhere for twenty years with only temporary relief. In fact, there were few, if any, kinds of food-that did not distress her, so diseased, sensitive and torpid were all the organs of diges¬ tion. The usual symptoms of dyspep¬ sia, with its concomitant ailments, were all present—bad taste in the mouth, dull eyes, cold feet and hands, the sense of a load upon the stomach, tenderness on pressure, indigestion, giddiness, great weakness and prostration, and fu gitive pains in the sides, chest and back. 1 have often risen in the ni S ht and ad ‘ ministered stimulants merely for the sake of the s i ight ° amd trans i ent relief they gave. Intermittent malarial fever set in, complicating the case and making every symptom more pronounced and intense. By this time the pneumo gastric nerves had become very seri¬ ously involved, and she had chronic Gastritis, and also what I may be al¬ lowed to call chronic intermittent itla laiial fever all at once. For the latter the physicians prescribed the good, old fashioned, sheep-anchor remedy, Quin¬ ine gradually increasing the doses, until —incredible as it may seem—she actu¬ ally took THIRTY GRAINS A DAY FOR days in succession. This could not last. The effect of the quinine if possible, almost as bad as the two¬ fold disease which was wearing away her strength and her life. Quinine poisoning was painfully evident, but the fever was there still. Almost every day there came on the characteristic chill and racking headache, followed by the usual weakness and collapse. About this time I met socially my friend Mr. Norton, a member of the firm of Chauncey Titus & Company, brokers, of Albany, who, on hearing from me these facts, said: 44 Why, I have be«n through almost the same thing, and have got over it. * 44 What cured yon?” I asked eagerly. 44 Kas¬ kine, n he said, 44 try it for your wife. ” I had seen Kackine advertised, but had no more far'i in It than I had in saw¬ dust, for such a case as hers. Mrs. Hall had no hi her opinion, yet on the strength of my friend’s recommenda¬ tion 1 got a bottle and began its use as directed. Now recall what I have already said as to her then condition, and then read what follows: Under the Kaskine treatment all the dyspeptic symptoms showed instant improvement, and the daily fever grew less and soon ceased altogether. Side by side these diseases vanished, as side by side they had tort¬ ured their victim for ten years—the dyspepsia alone having, as I have said, existed for twenty years. Her appetite improved from week to week until she could eat and digest the average food that any well person takes, without any^ suffering or inconvenience. With re u.e\/id assimilation of food came, of course, a steady increase in flesh, until she now looks like her original self. She still takes Kaskine occasionally, but with no real need of it, for she is well. I consider this result a scientific miracle, and the “ New Quinine ” is en¬ titled to the credit of it, for from the time she began with Kaskine she used no other medicine whatever. If you think a recital of these facts calculated to do good you are welcome to make them public. (Rev.) JAS. L. HALL, Chaplain Albany, N. Y., Penitentiary. P.
