Adjutant-General Drum agrees with Gen'
eral Howard in the opinion that deserters
from the army ought to be branded. They
would probably like to be “brandied,” and
that is just what is the matter with many of
them.—Boston Star.
“Yes, sir; after my death the insurance
company will come down with $5,000.”
“Yes, that’s perfectly proper, but what
bothers me to comprehend is how far down
they will have to go to settle with you after
you have died-”—Judge.
Twenty-five Milwaukee milkmen have
been arrested at the instance of the Health
Commissioner for maintaining nuisances on
their premises. If these men were not milk
men we might imagine the nuisances were
cows. —Chicago News.
A Philadelphian went to a physician with
what he feared was a hopeless case of heart
disease, but was relieved on finding that the
creaking sound which he had heard at
every deep breath was caused by a little
pulley on his patent suspender.—Ex.
Nearly all the New York Journals now
run an “Answer to Correspondents” column.
It seems to be filled chiefly with productions
of the young man who writes to know
whether he can afford to get married on ten
dollars a week.—Philadelphia Chronicle.
Mother-Why do you wear your silk stock
ings and new shoes on such a muddy day as
this, dear? Daughter—For economical
reasons mamma. Mother—Economical rea
sons? Daughter—Yes, they will save my
skirts from dragging.— Detroit Post.
Some one has found a petrified village in
Nebraska. The prairie dogs stand petrified
in front of petrified huts, while various other
petrified animals give the community a solid
character that is rarely met with in these
degenerate days.—N. Y. Tribune.
Having noticed that if left to themselves
nine children out of ten cultivate a wrong
walk, some enterprising Yankee has con
ceived the idea of organizing a walking
school. Such an institution has been started
in Boston, and fills a long felt want.—Ex
change.
The virtuovs minded Philistine, whose
experience of art is that she generally comes
in utter nakedness, is anxious to know
whether Bartholdi’s is a lady, and if so,
whether the French, when they rend her
over to us. will send her clothes along.—The
Judge.
It has been asserted that the pulse of the
First Napoleon beat only forty-five times
per minute went he went into battle. But
this is not strange. With some citizen
“colonels” the mere thought of going into
battle is enough to make their pulse stop
beating.—Phila. Call.
“No, sir; no, sir,” he said, as he buttoned
his overco it and prepared to leave the car,
“there should be no such word as ‘can’t’
with a young man like you ” “Os course
not,” growled a man in the corner, “neither
with an old nor a young man. The proper
word is ‘cannot.’ ” —Ex.

“Kid glove” oranges, grown in Florida,

In English country houses the gentlemen
go to the smokingroom after the ladies
have retired. On these occasions “smoking
suits” are worn. When at Sandringham re
cently only one man came in without such a
suit; the rest chaffed him and said the next
time he came in his swallow-tail they would
tear it ofl his back. The next night they
kept their word. After they had finished,
he threw the rags into the lap of one of his
persecutors, saying: “This is your coat. I
went into your rcotn after you had changed
your clothes and put it on. I’m going
away in the morning, so I’d advise you to
telegraph your tailor to send you down a
ready-made ‘stop-gap’ till he can maxe you
another-’”
Frank Cushing, who has lived among the
Zuni Indians, who speaks their language,
and, as has already been stated, was adopted
into a Zuni family, in a lecture delivered
in New York a few evenings since described
a Zuni story-teller and the formula with
which he invariably commences bis stories
of his ancestors. “In beginning his tale he
lights a cigarette,” said Mr. Cushing. “It
might be supposed that this is a custom
which he has learned from the Europeans,
but on the contrary it was the natives who
taught the Spaniards the use of the cigar
ette, and frcm the Spaniards we get the
custom. In a cave which I discovered on
the Rio Colorado I found, with other relics
of its former inhabitants, thirteen cigarettes
which must have been from 700 to 900 years
old.”

ANOTHER CASE.
East Point, GA., April 2,1884.
My wife has been afflicted with a terrible
form of Scrofula for over fifteen years. Phy
sicians exhausted their skill, and numerous
patent medicines were used without benefit.
Her condition grew worse—her appetite failed,
attended with debility, emaciation, falling
out of the hair and a frightful breaking out of
the skin. Her bones became very much dis
eased and painful (some calling it white swell
ing), with sleepless nights and a general feel
ing of horror. Some friends said that B. B. B.
would cure her. I procured it and placed her
upon Its use, and to the utter astonishment of
all who knew her, the recovery was rapid and
complete. It acted as a powerful tonic, gave
her a splendid appetite and acted upon the
kidneys. A few bottles did the work. The
action of B. B. B. was decidedly quick, and
the medicine cost but little. I advise my
friends to use It as a blood purifier.
Yours truly, R. M. LAWSON.
Blood Poison.
Mr. A. P. W., of Hampton, Ga., has recently
emerged from one of the most remarkable
cases of Blood Poison on record. His body
and limbs had no less than four hundred
small ulcers—his bones tormented him with
pains—his appetite failed—his kidneys pre
sented frightful symptoms—and all doctors
and one hundred bottles of the most popular
blood Poison remedy failed to give nim re
lief. He secured B. B. 8., the concentrated
quick cure, and five bottles healed the ulcers,
relieved his pain, cured liis kidneys, restored
his appetite, and made him a healthy, happy
man. Any one can secure his full name and
correspond with him.

Almost a Miracle!
A REMARKABLE STORY.
A few days ago a gentleman of "high standing in
Atlanta met Dr. J. Bradfield on the street, and
the following, in which all ladies are deeply in
terested :
“For the past eighteen months my wife has been
an invalid, caused from womb trouble, cessation of
mense’, etc., and I have tried everything! could hear
of in the way of medicine, and have had several of ou
best physicians attending her. to one of whom (calling
him by name) I paid one hundred and sixty-three dol
lars. Instead of improving or getting any relief, she
gradually grew worse, and I had almost given up hope,
and really did not believe she would ever get up from
an invalid’s bed; but a friend of mine who knew of
the case suggested the use of
Bradfield’s Female Regulator,
and although he stated that he knew of a similar case
being cured by it, and endorsed it highly himself, I
was so discouraged I did not believe it would do her
any good; but as a last resort! bought a large bottle of
it. and she began taking it, and from tne very first a
marked change took place. She begun to improve
rapidly, her appetite returned, her whole system was
built up, snd to-day she is as well and sound as ever
in her life, and I am under lifelong obligations to you
and your remedy, for it undoubtedly saved her life;”
and he added, “I wish every lady in the world so af
flicted would try it, as I know it cure them.”
We Claim and can Prove Beyond a
Doubt,
by the highest and most undoubted testimony,
That this Remedy will cure all womb troubles.
T hat this Remedy will cure luchorrhoea or whites.
That this Remedy will restore the menstrual functions
That this Remedy will stop excessive monthly flow.
That this Remedy will relieve painful menstruation.
That this Remedy will build up the system as a tontc.
That this Remedy’ will cure all famale disorders.
