The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh: Hall’s Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being* a
constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors

Ed A. Schloth has received from a
friend in Savannah, Din, a long and
small spearhead, a small knife, an awl
and a, needle taken from one of the pre
historic mounds near that city. The tools
are all of tempered copper, and when
suspended by a thread ring like steel.
They have been hammered out and tem
pered, and after having been buried in
a mound for no one knows how long
still ^retain their temper. The mound
builders, who had disappeared from the
face of the earth before Columbus dis
covered this country, knew how to tem
per copper, an art which no man on
earth has now, although many have en
deavored for years to discover the. proc
ess. Such specimens are found in but
few of the mounds opened, the imple
ments found being generally of stone.
Mr. Schloth has a fine collection of rel
ics of mound builders and of the aborig
ines of this coast and values these tem
pered copper articles above them all.-—

marck and Wallace and Darwin, their
development, through the opegatiofl of
those “secondary causes'' which we
call laws of nature, has been proximal-
ly explained. The lowest forms of life
have been linked with the highest in
unbroken chains of descent. Meantime,
through the efforts of chemists and
biologists, thegapbetween the inorganic
and vthe organic worlds, which once
seemed almost infinite, has been con
stantly narrowed. Already philosophy
can throw a bridge across that gap. But
inductive science, which builds its own
bridges, has not yet spanned the chasm,
small though it appear. Until it shall
have done so the bridge of organic evo

as it stands today it is the most stupen

DOOLITTLE’S t-ITTLE JOKE.
Mam He Conferred"an Honor Upon HU
Friend, Senator Fessenden.
The old senator was a great story
teller and related many interesting and
humorous accounts of whajb he had seen
in public life. One of his favorite sto
ries was at the expense of Senator Fes
senden, a warm personal friend. The
judge and Senator Fessenden had been
appointed oh a commission, with several
others, to treat with the various chiefs
of the Sioux Nation on an important In
dian question of the day. It was long
before railways had been introduced
into the far west, and the members of
the commission had to travel on horse
back. Judge Doolittle was chairman of
the commission, bat at the conference
shifted that duty to the shoulders of
Senator Fessenden. The latter was high
ly pleased at the honor conferred on him
and much “puffed up*’ in consequence.
The judge had method in his madness,
however, for. he had heard of thp pe
culiar reception tendered by the Indians
to the spokesman of any party of visit
ing whites.

An Undeveloped Idea.
Some years ago, according to the Bos
ton Transcript, an inventor who had de
vised a new sleeping car took his plans
to Mr. Pullman. The latter, after look-*
ing over them, said: “There is an idea
there. I will give you $100,000 cash
for your patents. ’* The inventor was a
poor man, and he would not accept the
terms He said that if the idea was
worth $100,000 to Pullman it was
worth millions, to him. The oar was
built and proved a financial failure, and
it is believed that even to this day the
inventor does not know where the
“idea" was whose presence Mr. Putt-
man discerned in the working plana

Gnarding Her Nerves.
A little east end maiden of 6 sum
mers, whose clever sayings are the de
light of her friends, recently dined with
an aunt. At the beginning of the repast
she gravely said to her relative:
'“I’ll take just one cup of tea, Aunt
Liza. 1 have to be so careful about my
nerves If I don’t take care. I’ll have
nerves like a cat. ’’
She got her tea, and it is scarcely
necessary to add that when she had fin
ished it she forgot all about her poor
nerves and dammed, for more.—-Cleve
