body, he knows what are the results of over-tasking it when it is weak and imma- ture. He therefore speaks on the subject as one having authority, and it is most un- wise to disregard what he says. his teachings recommend themselves to men’s common sense, and agree with their experience as far as it goes.

Unthinking and ignorant people, because hard brain-work is not accompanied by visible signs of exertion, imagine that it is not exhausting. This is what Dr. Hammond sayson the subject: ‘‘ Every person who has tried both knows that one hour of in- tense mental exertion fatigues the whole system inure than does a corresponding am- ount of the iost severe physical work.” He shows why this must be the case, aud

| But no doubt that report was gotten up for a purpose. Young Harry must receive a puff. He is in the market, but without a 2.40 re- ‘cord. But false reports of fictitions races will ‘not enhance the value of horses which every one knows are about up to the average farm class. Perhaps Fred will accommodate Young Harry if he is anxious for a race. Of Molly Kate we have nothing to say, she is undoubt- edly smart. But this we do say, if either of the owners of Molly Kate, Young Harry, or the old Daddy himse.f are anxious for fame, ‘and have courage enough to trot anything but hen races, then the Wailace is around. Come out with five mile heats (best three) and with auy sum from five cen’s to tifty dollars, and we wli have a geod old-fashioned re. St p

TT eo Miss Braddon’s Big Income.

Novel-writing now-a-days is a precarious and not very protitable calling. A very fair price, as things go, is $2,009 for the serial rights of a full-length story, and assuming that the author makes $4099 by the three- volume edition, and as mueh by a cheap edi- tion, his total proiit woald amount to 2,800— not a great deal, considering the labor and time that the writing of a novel involves. Oa the other hand there are undoubtedly prizes, and if a writer reaches the top of tae tree and is as prolitic as Miss Braddon, he can make, if not a great fortune, at any rate a handsome income by his pen. Miss Braddon, I should think, makes more money by fiction than any other wricer of the day. Her fertility is pro- digious. I believe Miss Braddon gets about $5,000 for the serial rights of a new story, and as she wiites something like two a year, or at any rate two in three years, her takings from this source aloae must be considerable. There miy be two or three writers who command as high a price, but none who is equally popular and prolide. Whether her words will live is anothe’ qaestion. I am speaking of the present.

ea as Astonishing Success.

It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderfu qualities be known to their friends in curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No person can use it without im- mediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we consider it the duty of all drug- gists to recommend it to the poor, dying con- sumptive, at least to try one bottle, as $0,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask your druggist about it. Samples bottles to try, sold at 10 cents. Regular size, 75 cents Sold by all Drugyists and Dealers, in the United States and Canada.

Sia Charles Dilke retains much of his popularity in Chelsea. He has adopted extreme Radical views and fraternities with the humblest people.

“That Miss Jones is a nice looking girl, isn't she?”

“*Yes, and she'd be the belle of the town if it wasn’t for one thing.”

**What’s that?”

“She has catarrh so bad, it is unpleasant to be near her. She kas tried a dozen things and nothing has helped her. 1 am sorry, for i like her, but that doesn't make it any less disagreeable for one to be around her.”

Now ifshe had used Dr. Sages catarrh remedy there would have been nothing of the kind said, for it will cure Catarrh every time.
