lOISONjTIOSHES the Mt. Lebanon Shakers Found-Incident in tlio His- tory of a Quiet Community. The Mount Lebanon (New r or ]c) Shakers are a quiet com- ‘ itv, secluded from the fret D d won-)’ of the outside world, [hey are widely known, how- , ve r, for their strict honor and probity in business. The Shakers believe that na- hre has a remedy for every dis- ase. A few have been found— he rest are as yet unknown, yjany were discovered by acci- lent. Others came to light as he result of patient experiment ind research. . Nervous Dyspepsia is a com batively veil' disease, growing mt of the conditions of modern ife. It is a joint affection of he digestive organs and of the lervous system. These two (vere formerly treated as sepa- -ate ailments, and it was left [or the clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal compli cation lies chiefly in the disord ered and depraved functions of digestion and nutrition. They reasoned thus:—“If we can in duce the stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excre tive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste mat ters which remain after the life- giving elements of the food have been absorbed, we shall have conquered Nervous Dys pepsia and Nervous Exhaust ion. And they were right. Knowing the infallible power of Shaker Extract (Seigel’s Syrup) in less complicated similar diseases, >!ved to test it fully 'i’o leave no ground prescribed the Is of cases mounced in doubt ney illlll'ii I ret success where their ug and diet wed. and Ex- io ia March, April, May, Are tho months in which to purify the blood, ns the system is now most susceptible to benefit from medicine. Hence now is the time to take Hood's Hnrsaparilla, a medicine peculiarly adapted for the purpose, possessing peculiar curative powers. It expels every impurity from the blood, and also gives it vitality and richness. It creates an appetite, tones the di gestion, invigorates the liver, and gives new life and energy lo everv function of the body. The testimony of thousands, as to the great benefit derived from Hood's Sarsaparilla, should convince everybody that it is peculiarly the best blood purifier and spring medicine. . [84 1m A rat and a cock sparrow had a pitched battle in Oil City the other day. The sparrow was the aggressor and attacked tho rat viciously, striking at it very much in the style of a game cock and then Hying down and pecking at it. Once it struck tho rat in tho eye and the rat spun around be fore it could get its bearings. In the end, however, tho rat got the best of tho battle, and tho spar row flew away, having lost many feathers. though they re in this, for rente which had 1 ■’•cn pi eurabh—uilh pc in every instance (lirediuus as toJiv were scrupulous’ Nervous Wye-pep hau oion is a peculiarly Ameri can disease. To a greater or less extent half the people of this country suffer from it— both sexes and all ages. Jn no country in the world are there so many insane asylums filled to overflowing, all resulting from this alarming disease. Its leading symptoms are these: Frequent or continual head ache; a dull pain at the base of the brain; bad breath; nau seous eructations; the rising of sour ai.d pungent fluids to the throat; a sense of oppress ion and fmu’.ness at the pit of thestomam ; flatulence; wake fulness and loss of sleep; dis gust wiiii food even when weak f r rathe need of it; sticky °r sliii:v matter on the teeth or A Chinaman in New York, who married a white woman some time ago, now wants a divorce. He objects to the sizo of her feet, which she uses to enforce the Westen demand that the Chin ese must go. Besides, she drinks gin and mixed ale and then breaks the furniture. Before ap plying for a divorce he chastised her, using his hair as a whip, but he failed to queue her of her bad habits. A clerk in Louisville invested $30 in pork at a bucket shop the other day, and succeeded in run ning it _ up to $5,000. Then he determined to make it $10,000 and quit and got married. His $5,000 crept up almost to the desired amount, and then the market took a turn against him and in a few hours he didn’t have even the original $50. He will not marry this spring. Tho country is having an epi demic of great railroad disasters this winter. If these dreadful lessons shall be heeded some good may come from them. Railroads should be kept in such order as to make human life safe, even if they never pay a div idend.

That’s a panther and no mistake!’’ Tim man at theoars stopped rowing and all bent forward, eagerly listening for a repetition of the cry they had heard. Presently it came again, a yell half human, demoniacal, that made tho forest ring with wild echoes. “Correct!” cried Buck Lindsley, an old guide and hnnter who accompan ied tlio party offsportsmen. “Nothing but a painter could make that noise. I’ve hunted ’em off an’ on for thirty years, an’ I know their voioe as Well as 1 do my own!” ‘Shall we land and give ohaseT” ask ed Etlsmore, the youngest man and best shot in tho party. “Yes, yes!” cried his companions in chorus. “What would you advise?” asked Ellsmore, turning to the guide. “Why gentlemen, you know tlie painter is u mighty tough animal to tackle but ” “There it is again!” cried one of tlie men, as tlie hideous yell pealed over Woods aud water. “Come on, Mr. Lindsley, and show us tho sport.— We’re not afraid of the danger!” Accordingly tlie host was headed to ward shore. Tim moment itgrutedon the sand the men sprang out. ‘This way!’exclaimed Buck Lindsley. And, guided by the cries that iloated at intervals through tlio forest, the men darted forward. ‘The animal, be it a panther or otherwise, seems to stay in nearly one spot,” said Ellsmore, as they drew near to tlio source of the outcries. Cautiously they advanced until only a thicket of oaks separated them from their prey. Piercing through this t hey st epped into the opening beyond, tlicir rifles ready for instant use. Before them was a small log shanty, and on a stump beside the door sat a young man, holding in his handB a French horn. Placing it to his lips he blew a bloodcurdling blast, the fiendisli cry they had attributed to the panther! “Great Scott!” gasped Ellsmore. “Gewhillikens!” cried Smith. “Bless my soul!” exclaimed Brown. “Well, I’ll be darned!” growled Lindsley. “Is there anything I can do for you, gentlemen?” asked the stranger,*as ho advanced toward the formidable array of hunters. “What are you doing here?” blurted Lindsley. “Camping out for a few weeks while I learn to play the horn!” cheerfully answered the young man, pulling his moustache over a capital imitation of a smile. Four shame faced hunters filed away toward the boat. Three sports men, sadder but wiser, took the next train for town. And while relating their hunting experiences to circles of admiring friends, they somehow for got to toll their excii iug chase after a panther.

Washington, March 7.—Tho fol lowing circular was issued by the treasury department this evening to holders of trade dollars: Treasury of the United States, Washington, March 7, 1887.—Owing to the present inadequate provisions for the reception and storage of trade dollars, the redemption of which is provided for under act of Congress passed February 20, 1887, the follow ing regulations will be observed, in order, so far as practicable, to comply with termB of the law: Trade dollars, if not defaced, muti lated or stamped, will be redeemed or exchanged at the office of the treasu rer and the several assistant treasu rers of the United States. Requests for the redemption of these coins, stating the amount held, should bo forwarded to the above named officers, who will file applica tion and notify holders in their turn when presentation may be made and payment obtained. Notification by holders of trade dollars to the treasu rer or Rub-treaetirles of the United States of amounts held by them re spectively, will bo held to be a suffi cient presentation of coins within the meaning, anil will entitle holders in the order of reception of such notifi cation to deposit such coins in tlie respective sub-treasuries, when noti fied that such deposits can be receiv ed at those offices. Notification must, be liled with the sub-treasurers on or before August 1st, 1887. After notifying these offi cers and upon receipt of notification from them, such coins may be for warded, by express or otherwise, transportation charges being prepaid, when receipts will be issued for amounts purporting to be contained in the deposits in the order of their reception. Upon count and ascertainment of the amount of each deposit, payment will be made thereof or in standard dollars or fractional silver coin at the option of holder. Defaced, mutilated or stamped trade dollars found in de posits will not be redeemed or ex changed by any of tho sub-tresaury officers, but they will be returned to the depositor or purchased as bullion in sums of thirty dollars anil upwards by the United States mints at the op tion of depositors. C. N. Jordan, Treasurer United States. Approved: C. S. Fairchild, Acting Secretary of the Treasury Mark Twain says of Prof. Loisette’$ svstem of memory training, now taught at 287 Fifth Ave., New York: “Prof. Loisette did not create a mem ory for me—no, nothing of the kind. And yet he did for me what amounted <0 the same thing; for he proved to me that I already had a memory—a tiling which I was not. aware of till then. I had before been able— like most people—to store up anil lose things in tlie dark cellar of my mem ory; hut he showed me how to light up the cellar. It. is the difference— to change the figure—between having money where you can’t collect it anil having it in your pocket. The infor- urttion cost me but little, yet I value it ut a prodigious figure. ASTONISHING SUCCESS.
