There is danger in getting thin, because it’s a sign of letting down in health. To gain in blood is nearly always to gain in whole¬ some flesh.

A medicine which will rid the blood of its poisons, cleanse and invigorate the great organs of the body, vitalize the system, thrill the whole being with new energy and make permanent work of it, is surely a remedy of great value. But when we make a positive statement that 98 per cent, of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the early stages of the disease, be CURED with the Discovery, ” ii seems like a bold assertion.

Remuneration. The tall, graceful girl’s thoughts were with her suitor. “I wonder,” she mused, "what he takes me for?” Her father divined her meaning and smiled. "The sum,” he observed, "is quite satisfactory—much less, I may say, than I expected ho would ask.

A ■Ii ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., 106 WALL 8T., NEW-YORK. Mias Stylos la a Osntury. "Though the fashion in woman’s dross has changed a hundred times in a hundred years,” said a young lady of observation to a writer for the New York Sun, “it has been a change of detail rather than of style, while of changes of costume, that is, of dress which can be said to mark a historical epooh, there have been bnt two. 8im lurly in men’s clothing there has been but one radioal change of costume during the century—that from the breeches to the trousers, with the in¬ terregnum of the pantaloons. The change in woman’s attire, which was sufficiently radical to be oalled a change of costume, ocourred in 1819-20, when the olassioal renaissance, with its immodesty, its single garment, and its waist under the shoulders,went out, and woman became the bodiced and petticoated creature that yon know hei today. “Of styles as I understood the term, that is, changes of distinctive fashion in woman’s garb, there have only been nine during the past 100 years, which I think is greatly to her credit. What are they? Well, that’s rather a hard quostion to answer. Let me see, now: “From 1795 to 1819 or 1820 was the era of the short waist. “From 1820 to 1825 were the days of the middle waist, short dress, no sleeves below the shoulders, or elbows at the farthest, and natural shoulders. “From 1825 to 1835 there was a dis¬ tinctly marked spell of broad shoulders, big sleeves and bell skirts. In fact our present fashions have been consid¬ erably based on that decade. “From 1835 to 1843 there were sloping shouldors and big full skirts. “From 1843 to 1865 there was the reign of the crinoline, the longest rule of a fashion that ever prevailed, I “From 1865 to 1882 was a period of evolution. The train grew into being, the skirts shrank little by little, grow¬ ing slimmer and slimmer, until the outlines of the figure were once more revealed. “From 1882 to 1887 was the period of the bustle—just that. “From 1887 to 1892 was the fashion of the paniers and princesse dress. “With 1892 came in there-establish ment of big sleeves, and I’m sure that you’ll agree with me that there never was a style so fetching as that with which we make ourselves beautiful for you today. But that’s a peculiarity of all fashion. That which is worn is the fashion, and that whioh is the fashion is so becoming that we won¬ der when we think how we ever could have worn anything else. ” It Stopped Right There. The young man with the blue neck¬ tie and with seven freokles on his nose, yanked tho hotel register around and wrote “R. L. Nubbins and wife” on the page with a good deal of flourish. Then the clerk wheeled it back again, and taking in the inscription, he look¬ ed at the new arrival. “I presume,” he said with a sly smile, “that you want the bridal cham¬ ber?” “I do if it don’t cost any more than any other,” replied Mr. Nubbins, not at all disturbed by tho disoovery of his seorot. “But it does cost more, ” said the clerk, somewhat astonished. “What’s tho price?” “Fifteen dollars a day.” “What price is the c L rs?” “We can give you a *ory good room for $3 a day each. ” “Does that include feed?” “Certainly; this hotel is run on the American plan.” “Well, give me one of tjiem,” said Mr. Nubbins. The clerk hesitated. He didn’t want to lose a customer for the bridal chamber. “Are you sure,” he said coaxingly, "that you profer one of the other rooms?” Mr. Nubbins was a bit nettled. “Say, young fellow,” he asked, “what do you take me for, anyhow?” "Um—er,” stammered the clerk. “Well, I took you for a newly-mar¬ ried man, and they always select the bridal chamber. It’s so much finer, you know.” “That’s all right,” said Mr. Nub¬ bins, tapping the counter with his fin¬ ger. “I may be fool enough to get married, but you oan bet your year’s wages that it stops right there. You can give me one of them $3 rooms.” And for two or three days Mr. and Mrs. Nubbins were just as bright and happy and laughing as if they had bought the entire hotel.— Detroit Free Press.

Dispatches from Madrid, Spain, says: A credit of$1,000,000 to be used in suppressing the Cuban insurrection, has been cabled to Captain General Calleja, in Havana. The preparations to ship more troops to Cuba are pressed forward with great rapidity. In addition to the three transports which have al¬ ready sailed, half a dozen or more troop ships have been made ready to leave Cadiz and Santander as soon as the infantry shall be got aboard. The total number now under orders for the Cuban campaign is twelve thousand. Not a few of the soldiers are veterans of the previous cam¬ paign. They and the other ex perienced men have been distributed among the regiments so that every company of new recruits may have a backbone of tried campaigners. All seem equally anxious to go to the front. Despite the terrors of the Cuban cli¬ mate for the European Spaniard there are numerous volunteers from all parts of the oountry. The popular excite¬ ment is beyond anything warranted by the sanguine reports given out by the government. ALU NEWS OX SPANISH ORIGIN. The latest news received at Tampa from the Cuban revolutionary move¬ ment is wholly of Spanish origin. The Cuban patriots of the city have re¬ ceived no news from the field direct, reports to the contrary notwithstand¬ ing. The last news they had from Marti and Gomez was tho 25th of February. Since that time nothing has been heard from them, nor direct from any of their generals on the field. La Lucha and other Havana papers wero received Monday contain¬ ing news as sent out by the Spanish government. The government admits that Moncada, an insurgent general, at the head of 1,000 men, routed and oaptured a thousand troops at Baire. Many were killed. The insurgent, Masso, has marched through Manca dillo and Bayamo, and through many towns, killing many government troops, capturing many more and securing arms and ammunition in large quanti¬ ties. The Cubans in Tampa are satis¬ fied with the revolution so far. VICTORY FOR SLUGGERS. A Judgo Decides That Prize Fight¬ ing is a Legitimate Business. At New Orleans Tuesday morning Judge Righter handed down the fol¬ lowing decision in the case of the state vs. Olympic Club: “I am called upon to interpret and enforce act No. 25, of the statutes of 1890. The title of the act reads: ‘An aot defining the crime of prize fight¬ ing and to provide for the punishment thereof in and out of the state of Louisiana.’ The act embracos two seolions and a proviso, neither of tho sections defining the crime of prize fighting, nor does the proviso tell us what a glove contest is. The former (not defined) is forbidden and punish¬ ed; the latter, under certain condi¬ tions, permitted and by implication encouraged. “Having, under instructions from the supreme court, excluded all expert testimony as to the distinction between these differently designated methods of pugilism, and referring only to the facts proved in the one case and in the other I find that a prize fight is a glove contest without gloves, and that a glove contest is a prize fight with gloves. In each case, there is a duel with fists, and there is a prize. In each ease, there is the same danger to limb and life, the same maiming and shedding of blood, tho same brutality. “I conclude, therefore, that the act entitled, ‘An act defining the crimo of prize fighting and to provide for the punishment thereof, in and out of the state of Louisiana,’ is a piece of legis¬ lative fraud and mendacity. It neith¬ er defines the crime of prize fighting, nor does it provide any penalty for the same, which cannot be evaded by the mockery of covering with the gloves the hand of the gladiators. That a glove contest is brutal and dan¬ gerous as a prize fight was clearly set¬ tled in the case of Lavigne vs. Andy Bowen. “On the whole, I find that a prize fight in Louisiana is a glove contest, and that a glove contest is a prize fight. It logically follows, that, there being no prohibition of glove legalized contests in this state, the same being and encouraged under certain condi¬ tions, which the prize fighter willingly accepts, prize fighting is now, what it never was before the enactment of statute No. 25, of 1890, a legitimate business and domestio industry, under the special protection of the law, while, before the passage of that stat¬ ute, it would constitute the crime of assault and battery, and in some eases of manslaughter. Club.” “Judgment for the Olympic THE “SOCIAL CIRCLE” CASE. It Has Been Restored for Argument Before the Supreme Court. In the supreme court at Washing¬ ton, Monday, it was announced that the interstate commerce cases, one of whioh involves the long and short haul, and another of which is known as the “Social Circle” case, had been restored to the docket for reargument at the next term. The court also an¬ nounced a recess until Monday, the 25th instant, after disposing of the ’ cases now on hearing. The North Sea Canal. A most interesting and important Baltic event will be the opening of the and North Sea CaDal, on June 20, by Emperor William in the presence of the highest dignitaries of Germany and representatives of other countries. The principal nations will also be rep¬ resented by men-of-war. The Ham burg-American line will join in the naval parade with two of their twin screw express steamers, the Augusta Victoria and the Normannia. The ca¬ nal, whioh was begun early in 1891 by the German emperor, starts at Halte nan, on the north side of Kiel Bay, and joins the Elbe at Brunsbuttel, be¬ low Hamburg, fifteen miles above the river’s mouth. It is 61 miles long, 200 feet wide at the surface, and 85 feet at bottom, the depth being 28 feet. The cost is estimated at $40, 000 , 000 . It is expected that about 18,000 ships will make use of the canal an¬ nually. The saving of time will be considerable, but more important than the saving in time is the avoidance of danger, the passage through the sound between the Scandinavian Peninsula and Jutland being considered one of the most dangerous in Europe. Sta¬ tistics show that about 200 vessels foundei every year on these coasts. The strategic value of the canal to Germany will also be considerable.— New York Herald. In 1884 the world produced 708,000 tons of tobacco, grown on 2,029,000 acres of ground. The United States was the largest producer, 210,000 tons; next came India with 180,000 ; Russia with 75,000; Austria with 65,000, the remainder being produced in small quantities by other oountries.
