Tbe world baa bettrd in neb of late
of the power of cooaine to alleviate
pain in surgical operations of tbe eye.
Those who have been attentive news
paper renders have been informed of
bow the sufferings of Gen. .Grant
were constantly relieved by tbe ap
plication of cocaine. To tbe unprO'
fessional mind tbe new discovery bus
presented only a wonderful no (es
thetic when applied to a point of
pain. But it appears that it has re
medial and curative properties also,
which render it invaluable. Per
haps all tbe good properties of cocaine
have* not • yfct been discovered, bnt
even in its present shape it affords
relief for most distressing complaints.
It bas been a standing reproach to
tbe medical profession that no care
or even palliative bus been found for
hay fever. The profession has been
disposed to laugh pt this, for tbe rea
son that tbe victims of hay fever are
not very nnmeroas, tbe disease itself
lasts bnt a few weeks, and nobody
dies of it. Still the patient snffers
torture, and everything tbe doctor
recommends or prescribes only ag
gravates tbe difficulty.
Thousands of remedies’ have been
tried in vain, and a elnb of bay fever
meet annually in the White Moon'
tains to compare notes, to swap
sneezes, and to soil handkerchiefs.
Asthma has also been considered
an incurable complaint, bnt one that
is generally attendant npon longevity.
It would appear that cocaine promises
not only relief, bnt cure to those
affected with the diseases named.
Tbe London Lancet says:
“Tbe acoonnt given by Mr. Wat
son of tbe Westminister Hospital, of
bis suffering and subsequent care
by tabloids of cooaine, is too circum
stantial to admit of no donbt, even
bad we not received confirmatory evi
dence from many sources. It bas
bet-ii objected to on theoretical
grounds that cocaine must of neces
sity be inoperative, or at all events of
comparatively little use, in most
cases in which symptoms of asth
matic type prevail. Carionaly enough,
however, it bas been shown that co
caine, when applied to tbe mucoos
membrane of tbe nostrils has the
power of allaying even tbis spasm.
Tbe observation, too, is not new; for
many months Hgo Dr. Boswortb, pro
fessor of larynology at Bellevue Hos
pital Medical College, published a
detailed account of spasmodic asthma
completely cured by cocaine. He
pointed out at the time that many
inveterate cases of asthma are de
pendent on, or, at all events, asso
ciated with nasal disorders, the relief
of which is promptly followed by an
abatement of all tbe distressing symp
toms. If tbis principal of associated
treameut should be on integrity, it
will be difficult t<> assign the limits of
its sphere of action.

said be wanted to have a talk. Some

“Wbat is file matter now, Har

“I tell you, I ain’t feeling afell in

WHAT THERE IS IN THE SPUING.
BILL RYE ON KINOOEOROE III,
George the III. was born’ in Eog'
liod June 4,1738, and ran tor king
in 1760. He was the son. of Frede
rick, Prince of Wales, and held tbe
offioe of king for sixty years.
He was a natural born king and
succeeded bis grandfather George II.
Look as yon will adown the page of
English bistory and you' will not fail
to notice the scarci'y of self-made
kings. How few of them were poor
boys and bad to skin nlong for years
with no money, no influential friends
and no fun. • Ab, little docB tbe Eng
lish king know of bard times snd
carrying two or three barrels of wa
ter to a tired elephant in order that
be uiay get into tbe Hfterunon per
formance without money. When be
gets.tired of being pfiuce, all he bus
to do is joBt to be king all day n’t
good wages, And then ut night take
off bis bigb-priced crown, bapg it op
on tbe bat-rack, put on a soft bat and
take in tbe town
George III. quit being prince at
tbe age of 22 yoars and begAU to bold
down tbe English throne. He would
reign along for a few years, taking it
kind of quiet, and then all at once he
would declare war and pick out Borne
people to go abroad and leave tbeir
skeletons on some foreign shore.
That was George's favorite amuse
ment He got op tbe Spanish war in
two years after be dome tbe throne;
then be bad an American revolution,
a French revolution, and Irish rebel
lion and a Napoleonic war. He dear
ly loved carnage if it coaid be pre
pared on a foreign strand. George
always' wanted imported carnage,
even if it oaoie higher. It was in
1765 and early in George’s reign,
that the American stamp act passed
tbe Legislature and tbe Goddess of
Liberty began to kick over tbe dash
board.
George was different from English
kings morally. When be spit on bis
ban.I and grasped tbe sceptre be took
bis scruples with him right into
tbe tbrone. He was not talked about
ball so much as other kings before
or since bis time. Nine o’clook most
always found George in bed, with bis
sceptre under tbe window-sasb, so
that be could have plenty of fresh air*
As it got along . toward 9 o’clock be
would call the hired girl, tell her to
spread tbe linen lap-robe on tbe
tbrone till morning, iBsne a royal
ukase directing her to tarn ont tbe
cat, ana instrnctr.ng tbe cook to set
tbe pancake batter behind tbe royal
stove in the council chamber, then be
would wind the clock ana retire. Ear
ly in the morning George would be
np and have all his i-liures done end the
tbrone dnsted off ready for another
bard day’s reign.
George III .is tbe party referred to
iu tbe Declaration of Independence as
“tbe present king of Great Britain,”
ami of whom many bitter personal re
marks were tunde by American patri
ots. On this, eide of the water George
wax not highly esteemed. If be bad
•emir over here to spend tbe samniwr
with friends io Boston daring tbe
lays ol the slump act. > tfeitemeut, lie
mid Imve gone home parked in ire,
it doubt, amt with h Swiss sunset un
der each eye.
George’s mind was always a little
on the bias, and in 1810 lie went cra
zy for tbe fifth time. Always before
that he bad gone right idiend with his
reign whether be was crazy or not,
bnt with the fifth attack of iusauity,
coupled with congestion of tin* brain
and blind staggers, it was decided to
tie him np in tbe barn and let some
one else reign awhile. Tbe historian
tack, and in 1811 tbe Prince of Wales
became regent.
George III. died at Windsor in
1820 with tbe consent of a joint com
mittee of both bouses of Congress at
tbe age of 82 years. He made the
longest run as king, without stopping
for feed or water, of any monarch in
English history. Sixty ‘years is J jt
long time to be a monarch and Ioojt
trader tbe bed every night for a Nihil
ist loaded with a cat-glass bomb and
paris green. Sixty years is a long
time to jerlt o sceptre over a nation,
and keep on tbe right side politically
all tbe time. *
He was always trying sumo soberae
to make a pile’of money easy, so tht)t
he wouldn’t have to work, but.lie died
poor and crazy at lost, in England.—
He was not very' smart, but be at
tended to business all tbe time, and
did not get up nraoh reputation as a
moral leper. He said that as King
of Great Britain and general superin
tendent of Cork be did not aim to
make-much Poise, bat be desired to
attroot universal attention by’ being
so moral that be wo'nld be regarded
as eccentric by other crowned beads.

Indigestion Cared.
I suffered for over five years with
indigestion, scarcely able to retain
tbe simplest food -.on my stomach.
Tbe burning seneiitinu.was almost in
tolerable, and my wh»|e system was
deranged. I *..» •> al.m.i aud could
not sleep, and consequently more’ or
less nervous all tbe time. I declined
in fiesb, and suffered all the usual de
pression attendant upon this disease.
[n a word, I was miserable. At last,
failing to find relief in anything else,
I commenced tbe nee of Swift's Spe
cific. I began to improve at once.
The medicine toned np tbe stomach,
strengthened the digestive organs,
at’d soon all Hint burning censed, aud
1 could retain food without difficulty.
Now, my health is good and I can
eat auytbing iu tbe shape of food,and
digest it without the slightest diffi
culty. I most cheerfully bear tbis
testimony, becanse there are' band-
reds suffering ns I was, and I am
sure they can be hs readily Cared.
Take tbe prescribed dose after eat
ing, instead of before.
