A Total Disability Claim of $1,650 Paid to
a Man who was Afterward Cured.
Th# Monitor t a newspaper published discovered at
Meaford, Ont., Canada, first
this case two years ago, and published It at
length, wbtehnow seems, owing totbeoure
oflt, to be a miracle. The facts were so
remarkable that many people doubted tbe
truth of them. Thev said: “It is too re-
markable; it cannot'possibly be although true; the
paper is mistaken, and the man,
he mtv think himself cured, will soon re-
lapse into hi* former condition,” etc., etc.
The accuracy of Us report called in ques-
tion the Monitor determined to find ont
definitely whether the facts were as stated
and whether the man would really stay
cured. Thevaocordluglvkeptaclose watch
on the oase for two years after the first ar-

another article about it in which the original

check-given by the Canadian Mutual Life As-
sociation for $1650.00 amount of total disa-
oility claim paid by them to Mr. Petch.
The first account stated that the patient
(see address belowT had been a paralytic
for five years, that there was such a total
lack of feeling in his limbs and body, that
a pin run full length could not be felt; that
he could not walk or help himself at all; for
two years he was not dressed; furthermore
that he was bloated, was for that reason
almost unrecognizable, and could not get
his clothes on. The paralysis was so com-
plete as to affect the faeo and prevented

Hail's Family Pills are
wide to take solid food. The doctors called
the disease spinal sclerosis, and all said he
could not live.
For three years, he lingered in this con-
dition. Then by some friends he was ad-
vised to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People. He took them and there was
a slight change. Tho first thing noted was
a tendency to sweat freely. This showed
there was some life left in his helpless body,
Next came a little feeling in tils limbs.
This extended, followed by prickling sensa¬
tiona, until at last tho blood began to course
freely, naturally and vigorously through
his body, and the helplessness gave way to
returning strength, the ability to walk re-
turned, and he was restored to his old tim-
health.
The above is the substance of the first
article published by the Monitor. Now fol-
low some clippings, taken from the same
paper two years afterward, and there is not
the slightest shadow of a doubt, in view of
this testimony, that Mr. Fetch’s cure is per-
mauent. Here follows the account:

said: “you see those hands—the skin is

Strsuje Suicide ef a Crow.
The spectacle of a big crow Impaled
upon the spire of the Presbyterian
Church in Ocala, Fla., attracted atten¬
tion the other day. It was seen that
the crow had been driven there by a
flock of sparrows, and had probably
committed suicide to escape their re-
lentless attacks. The sparrows here
are bitter enemies of the crows, and
when one comes along they pursue It
for miles and miles, darting at it from
side to side.
The other morning a solitary crow
was seen passing over the town. It
did not seem to know' the neighbor-

“Do you still attribute your euro to the
use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills?” asked the
Monitor.
‘‘Unquestionably I do,” was the reply.
“Doctors had failed, as had also the nutner-
ous remedies recommended by my friends.
Nothing I took had the slightest effect upon
rasuntillbegantheu.se of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills To Ms wonderful rnedicine I
owe my release from the living death. I have

Such is tho history of one of the most re-

that the Unitea States Treasury has

understand is that the Government
has out marfV Bullions of these notes

Yesterday she received a box of
hilte ‘ F>f?T:U and ready to mim-
’
ble to dust, but th» bills had been in
a roll, and while—sWifipletely burned,
the ash was still iu the roll when it
reached her desk. She was able to
follow the tracings marked by the ink,
and so familiar iskhe with every form
oi currency that~ev§n a small section
of these tracings enabled her to Men-
tify each and every bill. This mlnev Abos
came from Chicago, and the
■will all be redeemed, because thf ash
still carried the tracings of the ink.
Another box reached her from Chicago
this week, on which she is at work. It
is accompanied by au affidavit that
there was SI 00 in silver certificates.
The charred remains were in scraps
not more than half an inch wide and
an inch long. To the ordinary obser-
ver they were simply charred bits of
paper, but to Mrs. Brown’s practiced
eye there appeared on one tiuy scrap
the plaited tracing on the baek of the

She also has in her desk the scraps
of currency found on the lake front in
Chicago several years ago. She has
been abl « to P at together these scraps
so as to make good two $500 bills, one
$50 bill aud several of smaller de-
nonunation. lHit, as this money was „
found and the Government does not
redeem money that has been found,
for fear that the loser may put in a
claim, the bUls remain in Mrs. Brown’s
desk unredeemed. She received a
package from Chicago recently con-
tainiug a number of bills amounting
to $100, which were rotted by weather
exposure. They bore every evidence
of having been found, but the lender
did not vouchsafe any explanations,
and what can be determined will be
redeemed. Here is one phase of the
case where honesty is not rewarded by
Uncle Sam. If you find money which
lias been torn into scraps, ns in the
lake front case, just send it to the
Treasury without explanation or con-
fession. It will be redeemed. But if
- ybu confess that 4t wttS fouml Uncle
Sara will keep it. And if your money
is burned do not handle' the ashes.
Just gather up the whole mass of ashes
as carefully as possible, try not to
break .up the lump, aud send it to the
Treasury. Mrs. Brown will dig out
the denominations and redeem them
if it is possible.
Two Women Split Log:fi for a Living*
Splitting logs is the vocation fol¬
lowed by two women in the woods
back of Wall’s station, on the Penn¬
sylvania railroad. Annie and Mary
Wilson are the names of these two
women. They are sisters. They
split rails and make pit posts and caps
for the Spring Hill Coal Company,
works are between Wilmerding
and Wall’s. They do all the work of
felling the trees, sawing them into
proper lengths and finally with their
axes splitting them into pit posts,
They are assisted to some extent by
their younger brother. The {drls
work together always and can swing
an eight-foot cross-cut saw through an
oak tree with apparently as much ease
as some women run a typewriter.
When the tree is sawed through
and ready to split one of the girls sets
an iron wedge into one end of the log
and with a large maul weighing about
twenty pounds drives it in, splitting
the log from end to end. The opera¬
tion is repeated until the log is split
into sizes for posts. Then the axes
arc, brought, into play and the pos4»
trimmed up and shaped. The giaSs
came from Indiana. ’
“The work is not hard when you
get used to it,” said one, “and then
we can make more money splitting
rails and making pit posts in one day
than we could in a week working iu a
kitchen. What’s the difference, so
long as the work is honest, how one
earns a living? Although I work
hard every day, rain or shine, I never
get sick. I was never sick in my life.
The people around here all talk about
us, but we don’t care for that. We
are earning a good living and don’t
owe any one a cent.”—Omaha Bee.
Russia’s Magnetic phenomenon.
Experiments that have been made
by Bussian and French savants in con¬
nection with the remarkable deflec¬
tion of the magnetic needle over an
immense area in Central Russia, says
a New York Sun special, have given
curious results.
The observations were confined to
the strip of country between Moscow
and Kharkov, a distance of about 850
miles. The needle showed the great¬
est aberration iu the province of
Kursk, where in the north it was de¬
flected twenty degrees. One hun-
dred and fifty-miles southeastward
the deflection exceeded ninety-six de-
grees, the needle pointing east and
west, instead of north and south.
Engineers who are engaged in build¬
ing railroads in that part of the coun¬
try are much interested in the experi¬
ments. They speculate as to how
the magnetization will affect the du¬
rability of the rails.
It is known that rails are usually
more durable when laid north and
south than in other directions, the
greatest wear from magnetism being

H. Phelps 'Whitmarsh contributes
to the Century an article on “The
Steerage of To-day.” Mr. Whitmarsh
says: o’clock
Next morning at four we
called at Queenstown, where we took
aboard the mails and some sew y
more steerage passengers. The new¬
comers were principally fresh-looking
Irish girls, who, in spite of the early
hour, began to dance reels and to sing
to the accompaniment of an accordion.
This waked up the other musicians
aboard, and before long we had a flute,
a tin whistle and the accordion in full
swing. Each instrument had a
separate audienee, who jigged, sang
or listened, according to the will of
the performer.
