The New York Evening Poet is short ly to appear as an eightrpage paper, about the size of the World. A Pittsburg paper sees a grim humor in the sign, "Dry goods,” hanging in the windows of flooded stores. Fifty years ago there were less than fifty miles of railway in America. To-day there are, in round numbers, 125,w)0 miles. An Illinois grower of sorghum says Do per cent, of net cane is sugar and water ana these come from the atmosphere. Hence a cane crop is less exhaustive of the soil than corn. A doctor writes to the Jfedical and Surgical Reporter: "To direct the patient to keep his eyes on his toes.

She is de scribed as pretty, intelligent and of sound reputation, but somehow the price, one dollar a chance, seems rather high. Undoubtidly the most complete game of poker on record is the one re cently played by WUlis Kissee and Jack Kellogg, at Gunnison, Colorado. Each held threo of a kind, each reached for the stakes, each promptly pulled out a pistol because the other readied; both fired and fell dead. Mrs. I).

In this emergency "cliampagnc was specially manufactured out of aerated water, brandy and syrap." Lord Grosvenor’s simple Funeral, London World. The Duke of Westminster has proved that, in taking the lead In the Funeral Re form Association, he fully entered into the necessity for reform in the tad offices for the dead; and when Lord Grosvenor was buried ail the arrangements were of the most simple description. A coffin of plain deal inclosed the remains ; an unpre tending, unornamented hearse conveyed it to the church; and next day the hands of thz keepers on the estate carried it to its last resting place covered with wreaths and crosses of flower* sent or brought by loving hands. No paraphernalia of the undertaker's trade was to be seen, and the funeral, attended by all the nearest rela tives of the deceased and by the tenants and work people who could be present, was the more impressive by its intense simplicity. What He Had In Them. Paper Paper. Another small boy got in hi* way this week. A party of gentlemen visited some ladies in the city Wednesday evening. During the evening the family bud of promise, whom we will call Johnny for short, and who had not been long in breeches, walked into the room. One of the young gentlemen took Johnny i his knee and said: “Johnny, vour trowsers are too tight, aren’t they?” No,” said Johnny. Well, they are too loose then. No.” This seemed to exhaust the subject but Johnny was not willing to let It drop. "lightening up he exclaimed: ‘Butthey'* got somfln in 'em!” The gentlemen prudently refrained from making further inquiries. “Thcy’s got a hole in ’em I’, persisted Johnny, with a triumphant air. Then the party with remarkable una nimity proceeded to divert the small boy’s’attention from the wonderful gar ment. "By Jove!” ejaculated Col. Ham. Grlf- in, M.

The edges are agged and tom, instead of being cut evenly, [t is in imitation of the hand made papers of fifty or a hundred years ago, whose edges were always thin and uneven. It Is an English novelty, nnd the first that came had a watermark of a Roman soldier’s head and below the letters “B. C. .55.” This brings from sixty to ninety cents n box, according to the qual ity of the paper. The Paleographic Is an exaggeration of the same Idea. The cover of the box says that the paper was found in Pompeii, and it certainly looks so. The edges arc black ened, charred and tom, and the surface of the paper time-stained and rust'-. An un sophisticated buyer might call it dirty, but it is not; it is only “artistic.” Twenty-four sheets nnd envelopes of this only cost two dollars. The inside of the envelopes is clean, but the outside bus enough spots and dirt to bring the price up to twice that sutn. There, is a dull red paper with silver nnd gold dots sprinkled over it. and another with stars. They are a hideous, reduced copy of the paper which covers the walls of some chancels in coun try churches. The “hammered silver” ~ ir has water mark*, in imitation of the i in hammered silver work. It Is thin ami rather pretty paper. The morocco, alligator and calf papers are eniliossed to imitate the surface of those leathers. One lady called them “agita tion” paper, so irregularly did the pen career over their surface. They are only interesting as novelties.

Writing with the Voice. Philadelphia Record. At a meeting of the Collcgo of Physi-| clans last week Prof. Harrison Allen, of Itliis city, showed a new and very interest ing discovery by which spoken language can be represented by a series of curved I lines on a receiving surfaco composed of white paper coated with soot. The ex pel iraente, which were originated by Drof. Allen from observations which he had made through watching the movements of the soft palate when conducting experi ments connected witli the human throat, are made srith an instrument de signed by the Professor, nnd which to very simple and easy of oper ating. By means of his device he to enabled to register upon the surface of the sooted paper the lines and curves that rep resent the various phonetic sounds of the human voice. His observation has proved that ihe discovery will undoubtedly be of great importance in diagnosing cases of diseases of the palate. In the study of the stammering anil in the comparative study of the languages of civilized nations with those of the first primitive races. Professor Allen has already shown, by means of his interesting experiments, that many of the sounds which have long been considered by elocutionist# to be formed by the direct action of the lipe, the teeth, or the tongue, are in reality formed by the action of the palate. The subject to turel to prove one of much Importance to the world of science, and the Professor thinks it will-develop some most interesting facts. Olve the People n Pure Press. South Georgia Clarion. It is a proud boast often mode by the press itself, that modern thought and tone of public morals is directed by the modern newspaper. It is a question whether this axiomatic boast can oe received as entirely true, and yet whether the press reflects public opin ion, or moulds it, no single factor exercises as much power for Mod or evil. Not even the sacred desk, with its divinely inspired message, can claim equal power with the newspaper. At stated intervals the pulpit sends forth its warnings and promises, but the news- S is a messenger that never yields to e, and its tongue to never silent. Bv and by day, amid sunshine and storm, subtle as light and powerful as heat, it visits the palace, the novel, counting room and the parlor. It is read by the man of business, the man of pleasure, the staid matron, the wliite-liaired grandpar ent, and pure young girls and boys pore over its columns, llow necessary then, that its pages should be free from a poison that to all the more dangerous because it appeals to a weak point in poor, frail hu man nature; how important it is that nothing that could call a blush to the cheek of a pure-minded woman should bo spread before Its readers? Measured by this standard, and it is not an unreasonable one, how many of the newspapers of the day could stand? We arc led to write these lines by the course of one of ourState journals, which aspires to be considered the exponent nf the thought and genins of the new South. That it is enterprising no one will gainsay, but that it is a safe guide in public morals, or suitable to be read in family circle, no one will assert. Industry and ingenuity are fatigued in searching for morsels of scandal, and bits ol sensational and sensuous news arc para ded with the gusto displayed by a gour mand over his epicurean dishes. The priva cy of the home circle is invaded, the veil that ought to be drawn over fallen nnd de praved men and women is rudely torn away and their sins and shortcomings made public. No phase of depravity is too depraved to be given the place of honor in its columns, and none of the restraints that propriety has thrown in the way of such ribaldry arc strong enough to check its mad search after news. Whether dabbling and wallowing in the cesspool of modern politics, national, Stale or local, or coqueiting and toying with corporate monopoly or private rings nnd cliques, or prying Into the dark recesses where vice and sin seek to hide their heads, or into the nook where the loving hands of friends have sought to shield the shame of an erring brother or sister, it has been and is to-day the courtesan of the Georgia press, ready to be debauched for hire, willing to condemn or praise, to pub lish or bush up, as interest dictates, and yet wearing the signet cl Its shame with an effrontery which is ever the char acteristic of the demi-monde. There are evils which follow In the wake of such journalism too apparent to need recapitu lation, and it has been the fortune of tho Lettor From a Female Physician. My specialty is diseases of women and children. I like Allcock's Porous Plas ters because they are so quick and effi cient, and never irritate or mark the ten- derest skin. I have found them most use ful in my practice, and they are certainly the best plastersjnoR made. To illustrate, my son of ten years of ago took o bad cold and couched incessantly; no medi cine would relieve him; after some twelve hours I applied an Allcock’s Porous Plaster to his throat and upper chest The cough ceased entirely in an hour, and the next day the boy was well. I told the case to a gentleman who suf fered in the same way: he, too, was cured in twenty-four hours of his cough by All- cock’s Porous Plasters. Another pa tient suffered from pain in the small of tile bark—Allcock’s Porous Plaster was applied at night, and next morning the pain had ceased. Again, a young lady suffering from Neuralgic Pains around the heart, by my advice used Allcock’s Po rous Plasters, and was entirely cured in three days,. Finally, a lady came to me with Cold Feet, which constantly recurred night and day—tills sometimes is a symp- ton-nf Uterine Congestion—I applied an Allcock’s Porus Plotter to the sole of each foot, and her feet got and continu ed warm. She wore the plasters over a week. Thus I have recently tried Allcock's Poeous Plasters, nnd take great pleasure in bearing witness to their remarkable cur ative power. Jake M. Baker, M.
