Taken in time,
even Consumption yields to the
wonderful effects of Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. It
won’t make new lungs—but it will
make diseased ones healthy when
nothing else will. There’s reason
for it, too. Consumption is Lung-
scrofula. For every form of scrof
ula, and all blood-taints, the “ Dis
covery ” is a positive cure. It’s
the most potent strength - restorer,
blood - cleanser, and flesh-builder
known to medical science. For
Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood,
Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and
all lingering Coughs, it’s an une-
qualed remedy. It’s a guaranteed
one. If it doesn’t benefit or cure,
you havo your money back. You’ve
everything to gain from it—nothing
to lose.
It’s especially potent in curing
Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysip
elas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes,
Goitre, or Thick Neck, and Enlarged
Glands, Tumors and Swellings,
Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal
under its benign influence.

now Col. White Fcrda the Spi
Every day about 10 o’clock there ap
pears in the doorway of the Pierrepont
house, Brooklyn, a gentleman with gray
hair and whiskers of a rather English
pattern. The closely buttoned frock
coat shows the figuro of a well kept
man, careful and methodical in his
habits. This inan is Col. P. Wliite, who
for the last twenty years lias been a
boarder at tbo Montague street hotel, and
who is as well known as the very name
of the house he inhabits.
Regular as a planet, rain or shine. CoL
White appears with the same object in
view.
He feeds the sparTows, who daily await
in the big tree opposite the hotel the ap
pearance of their friend.
Generally Cpl. White has a handful of
corn bread. When he stands outside
the door the little gray and brown birds
swoop down from their perches. Some
of the boldest light on Col. White’s arms
and shoulders, and there is ono very
date and methodical bird that will take
his stand on the colonel’s thumb and pick
crumbs from his open hand.
Not less than twenty sparrows are
regular in their attendance, and often
there are a half.a hundred chirping and
twittering for their share of the food.
When the crowd is unusually large Col.
White walks around to the Hicks street
side and deals ont the crumbs on the
sidewalk or on the asphalt street. Some
of the birds know his voice, and stand
around his feet twittering impudently
and impatiently for their rations. When
the meal is ended they are told to go,
and they do, but only to return about
o’clock in the afternoon for their dinner
from the samo kind hands.—New York
Telegram.
“Bringing Father'* Dinner."
It was in the C., H. anil D. depot in
Cincinnati one day when one of the men
employed to oil the cars ns they came in
accidentally fell nnder the wheels of
moving coach and had his right leg and
hip crushed in a horrible manner. He
was picked np and laid on some coats
spread on the platform, and a doctor
was soon on hand. Ho must have suf
fered intensely, but after the doctor had
examined him he coolly asked:
“Doctor, how had is it?"
“Very had, indeed."
“Will I liver’
“Not more than ten minutes; you ore
bleeding to death.”
Wlmt time is it, Jim?” asked the man
of a fellow employe.
“Eleven fifty-five,” was the answer.
"The children will bring my dinner at
sharp 13. Homo of yon go np and stop
them. They innsn't see mo die. Poor,
motherless children—orphans now!'
I went to the door with the others,
and we were just in time to stop a boy
of 8 and a girl of 0 from coming in. Each
had hold of tbo handle of a basket con
taining father's dinner, and they were
smiling in anticipation of the greeting
they would receive. We sent them awny
with a false story about his having gone
home, und tho eyes of both were filled
with tears of disappointment. The echo
of their footsteps could still be heard on
the pavement when the father breathed
his last.—New York Sun.

Tho treatment of boils should be, in
the first placo, constitutional, aiming to
restore the vigor of the system. The
diet shonld be generous, without excess,
And easily digestible. The patient, while
avoiding exhaustion, should tako a proper
amount of exercise, have an abandonee
of pure air and wash bis body daily with
cool water and soap.
Local treatment also is needed. To
arrest the progress of a boil at its early
stage Sir Erasmus Wilson advises the
application of a solution of aagar of lead
every six or twelve hours with a camel’s
hair brush. If this fails he would pro
mote suppuration by spreading on it a
wash leather plaster of galbannm and
opium, cut in the middle for the escape
of the pus.
If the pain continues to increase ho
wonldapplysoothingapplications. When
the boil begins to heal ho would keep the
skin around it dry, clean it with tar
soap and smear it with yellow rosin oint
ment, dressing the broken surface with
lint spread with tho same ointment,
keeping tho dressing in position with
strips of adhesive plaster or by a light
bandage.—Youth's Companion.

When Alphonie Daudet Wa. Poor.
Alphonse Daudet, considered by many
the most popular living novelist, is one
of the most remarkable looking mon in
Europe. He has an exquisitely shaped
head, broad, white forehead, coal black
eyes and hair and a full dark beard.
Years ngo, when he first camo up to
Paris from Lyons, unknown and friend
less, ho was so poor that he was forcod
to mako his journey in a cold freight
car, and had nothing to eat for two
days. A copy of his poems fortunately
b*ec tho eye of tho Empress Eugenie,
who directed the Due de Merry to send
for him. Poor Daudet with difficulty 1
procured suitable clothing for his Ap
pearance at the Tnilerie8. bnt a lucra
tive secretaryship wus soon offered him
by Do Moray, and hi3 pecuniary trials
Were ended.—New York Ledger.
Origin of a Common Cipirulon.
“Barking up tho wrong tree” is a very
common expression in the west It orig
inated from the fact that a dog will bark
at the foot of a particular tree to indi
cate to his master whero the game is
located. While endeavoring to see the
animal he discovers it on another tree,
and it finally escapes him altogether. In
its application it denotea that a person
has mistaken his object or is looking for
it in tho wrong place.—Detroit Free
Press.
Rev. James W. Ford, for more than
half a century a missionary in China
and founder of tbefint Christian church
in that country, says: “After studying
the Chinese language for ten years I
translated the New Testament and other
religions work*. I began to preach in a
way immediately after I entered Siam,
bnt though I have studied for fifty years
I do not yet tldnk that I have mastered
the Chineso language."
