“Thave suffered for years with female complaints and kidney troubles and I have had a great deal of medical advice during that time, but have received LittI-

or no benefit. A friend advised me to taxe Hood's Sarsaparilla and I began to use it, together with Hood’s Pills. ql have real- ized more benefit from these medicines than from anything else] haveever taken.

A CLEVER TRISY.

Fire Eating Not se Extraordinary Whe» You Know How to Do It.

Recent exhibitions in Paris theatre by two young Americans, said to ex cel in their line anything of the kind that had

been seen, attracted the a‘ tention ef the French press. Standing en the open stage. without any appara-

tus in sight, they caused long and bril- liant flames to dart the tips cf their fingers, and also, apparently, from their mouths, for a considerable length of time—certainly half a min- ute. The method of producing these Siartling appearances was kept secret by the conjurers, and had so far de fie¢t all attempts at explanation. A so- lution, however, purporting to be fur- n'ished by a well-known expert in leg- e1demain, appears in a recent issue of Law Nature. It shows conclusive'ty that the whole business depended upon a simple but very nicely adapted me- chanical arrangement.

During their performances the “‘fire- eaters’ steod upon a large, gaily calpeted box, seemingly designed to lift them into plainer view, but really corcealing two rubber bags filled with

from

illuminating gas and compressed by weights. To the heel of each man’s right shoe was affixed an ingenious ecntrivance, terminating in a spout

This was the point of entrance for the gos. It was attached to a very slender tube of vuleanized rubber, which, be-

ing of the same color as the conjurer’s diabolical costume, was invisible to the spectators.

The tube was carried up the leg and the back, and inside both sleeves next to the skin. On reaching the wrist, !t Was connected with a still smaller flexible tube, flesh colored, and run- ning along the palm to the tips of the forefinger, where it ended in an open ing hidden under the nail. A similar branch passed up the neck and under the chin as far as the lips.

By placing his heel, and bearing Gown accurately over a tube which p:ojected slightly at a certain spot In the carpet, the performer could bring bis body tube into communication with the corresponding reservoir within the box, and send the gas circulating up- v-ard until it reached the finger tip. where it was instantly lighted by an electric spark from a machine conceal- ec under the short cloak, producing a stream of fire. Just so it was led to escape beneath his lips, the flame then appearing to issue from his mouth— an etfect which was aided by the per- former’s opening the latter very wide and throwing his head back. The stage was always dimply lighted, and but slightly inclined, making it still more dificvlt to distinguish the tubes. Thus is another of these clever feats remov- ed from the domain of wonders.

NEW YORK WRITERS.

Those Who Have Work and Those Tha: Can't Get It.

An observant newspaper man of long and varied experience spoke yes- terday of the article which appeared in last Sunday’s Sun, in which the au- thor, who represented himself as a com- petent and well-tried newspaper writer, described the sufferings and hardships which he had undergone in his at- tempts to obtain work at his profes- sion in New York.

“! yead that article carefuily,” Said the ole newspaper man, “and it inter- ested me because it ‘bore on its face evidence of its genuineness. At the same time I could not help seeing why it was that that man failed to obtain work in New York. It was because he was never really fitted for the pro- fession which he claims as his own. He tells us how long he has been en- gaged in it and mentions the good places which he has held, and yet he shows in this very article that he is destitute of the qualities which are ab- solutely essential to suecess on Park Row. To begin with, I see no indica- tion of the humorous sense, and I can tell you that I would not myself give employment to a man who did not possess it in a high degree. Then just think of the experiences that that man has had here in the city and of which, according to his own account, he has made absolutely no sort of use. For my own part, I fail to see how a man could stay in a hospital as long as he did without getting material for scores of articles—provided he were capable of writing them—which almost any New York newspaper would be glad to use. In a New York hospital there’s a story in every bed. Now there have been great changes in newspaper men and methods during the last ten years, and the effect of many of these changes has been to crowd out the hack writers who are without either style or perceptions of any sort, and increase the earnings of the men at the top. There are hundreds of men in New York to-day, however, who are starving, pen in hand, and wondering why they do not get ahead. They are honest, sober and capabie, and would do well in commercial pursuits, per- haps, but they will never succeed as writers unless they possess certain gifts w&ich come to us principally by inheritance.””—New York Sun.

Emperor William's Uniforms.

At last accounts the Emperor Wil- liam was traveling with his 108 unl- forms, two tailors and one presser to keep them in order. So successful was he in finding time and occasion in which to wear them that in England he is known as the “lightning change Emperor,” The most of this uniformly large wardrobe, being comparatively modern, is rather quiet in color and design, the gold lace and brass buttons, in which the heart of the Emperor de- lights, being conspicuous by their ab-

sence. Therefore, Emperor Franz Josef, who knows no greater pleasure than that of making young peopie, happy, comes to the rescue with the gorgeous uniform of a general of the Hungarian army, Coat and. tightly fitting trousers are of scarlet cloth’ richiy

trimmed in gold lace and embroidery, A white cloak trimmed tin gold Jace and bordered with sable, a gold cap with herons’ plumes, high boots with gold spurs and tassels complete this imposing uniform.

“and are you glad to see me, my littie man?” agked the bishop of Bobby.

“And why are you glad to see me?”

“Because it’s only when you come that we have anything for dinner yorth eating.”

THAT ACHING HEAD.

What Causes It and How Overcome.

How often the remark, “Oh, my head aches,” and there are so many varicties of aches and pains the head is subject to all along the line from the dull and heavy and oppressed feeling over the eyes to the persistent, racking and torturing misery of Sick Headache. The cause is in most cases the same, the overflow of poisonous uric acid is not extracted from the blood by the Kidneys, and accumu- lating in the blood, causes high and irre- gular pulse, headaches, mental depres- sion and nausea. Chase's K. & L. Pills tone and restore the Kidneys, excrete poisonous matter from the blood, sending it on its way pure and health-giving, cur- ing Headache, and removing all the at- tending symptoms from its wake. Mrs. G. Bird, Harriston, Ont., while attending the 1894 Fall Exhibition at Toronto, was taken very ill with Sick Headache and dizziness. She was subject to these at- tacks for years, compelling her to take to her bed. In this case by using Chase’s Pills relief was immediately obtained, and the usual days of misery and pros- tration avoided. Thousands of suchcases can be referred to where Chase’s Pills have cured Sick Headache and its atten- dant symptoms. 25 cents a box, of all dealers, or by addressing Edmanson, Bates & Co., 45 Lombard 5St., Toronto.

HIS FUNERAL.

A Topeka Man’s Precautions Against

Mortuary Chestnuts.

A Topeka man of a practical turn

of mind has made a will regulating his own funeral. A friend who is @ parson is to come from a distance

and say a prayer. Another friend, who is not a parson, not even 4 church member, is to make a short talk. An- other friend, who is a woman and 4 sweet singer, is to request three mus! cal friends—another woman and twe men—to join her in singing appropriate

hymns, while another friend, a }ouns fellow who learned the keyboard

while “on the road” for a music house, is to preside at the organ.

The undertaker is not to wear a plug hat, or a big diamond stud, or a dresty Prince Albert coat, or in any manner to appear as if he had snatched a moment from a banquet to bury the dead. He is to be modest and humble, giving the corpse a chance for public attention—its last chance. The pall- bearers are not to be labeled. They will be distinguishable fron: the corpse by the fact that they wiil be alive, and their duties will be understood without wearing a printed sign. ‘they must be good fellows, and they are requested to beguile the way to the grave with cheerful anecdotes of their dead friend

None of them may wear gloves—un- dertakers’ gloves are so starchy and stuffy—and a man whose hends sweat is barred. It tarnishes the handles of the coffin. Grips and signs, swords, feathers and bands are prohibited. The parson who shall say the first prayer shall say the last, and “sprigs of myr- tyle’” or “acacia” are forbidden. The pall-bearers are to line up and witness the final closing of the grave. All the funeral arrangements are to be in charge of another friend, a woman, who shall comfort the family and see that chumps keep away from the house; that the brownies be not per- mitted to “sit up with the corpse.” She shall receive flowers, if any, friends may bring in, return thanks for them in writing, and request the newspapers not to call them “floral offerings.’’ She

shall also detach cards from _ these pretty remembrances and _ preserve them for the family. The coffin; it f

shall not be called a -“casket,”’ must not wear the appearance of a Tloral bargain counter. That moss-grown ti- tle head “The JI ast Sad Rites,” must not appear over the newspaper ac- counts of the funeral, and, having done this last kind service in fairly good English and short sentences, city editors are requested to turn again their attention to life and the beaut!- fui world, leaving the dead man to make his own way across the dark river.—Kansas City Star.

How the Hair

All the early writers on the make-up of the human frame and its ad: rn- ments invariably referred to the Yair as being an “excrement,” and most of them held that it was fed on sub- stances similar to itself. The odd no- tions of the early anatomists and phil- csophers, respecting the growth ard functions of the hair were the basis of many old-time superstitions regarding that constituent of the human body. The ancient philosophers declared that the hair, “generated in the fuliginous parts of the blood,” and that it was “exhaled by the heat of the body," and that it “becomes firm and fibrous on exposure to the atmosphere,” pre- sumably in the same manner that the fluid ejected by the spider becomes a “web” as soon as the air strikes it. In modern times, however, every idea re- specting the character and growth of hair has changed. The scientists now universally agree that the hair pro- perly and truly lives and receives its nourishment from the scalp and y.1- joining tissues. It is true, however, that they take upon themselves the nature of parasitic plants.

They grow, as vegetation does, and each separate filament has a distinct life and economy. That they derive their nourishment and owe their exist- ence to the juices taken up from the flesh and blood there is no doubt. How- ever, after all, it cannot be that this food is taken up from what the phys- iologists term “nutritive juices,” for we know that hair will live and thrive, even though the body starves or be wasted by disease. In many Instances, in truth, the hair thrives and becomes most luxuriant when the body is most shrunken and shriveled from wasting ailments. And, furthermore, in rare instances, it has been known to flour- ish after animal life in the body ha@ ceased to exist, and even after decay had set in in the skin and flesh to which it was attached.—London Spec- tator.

Grows.

A Dog's Ruse.

The other day I witnessed an amus- ing instance of canine sagacity worthy of commemoration in print. I was staying with friends who have a varied collection of dogs—a Blenheim spaniel and her five puppies, a fox terrier and two fine deer hounds. This happy family is allowed to spend part of the day in the drawing room provided they conform to certain rules as to boundary lines and an ainicable agreement among themselves. The hearth rug is the fa- vorite “coign of vantage’’’ with them all. Zuna, the deer hound, sauntered in one morning and found every ap- proach to the fire blocked by the slum- bering forms of her companions. She tried gently to scratch a passage for herself, but was repelled with growls. So, apparently suffering from extreme lowness of spirits, she retired to a dis- tant corner of the room; but not to sleep. For ten minutes she crouched there, pondering silently. Then, sud- denly bounding up, flew to the window and barked as if an invading army was in sight. Of course, every one, hu- man and canine, fololwed in mad haste. The hearthrug was left unoccupied and Zuna quietly trotted round, stretchec her huge form before the fire and in an instant was snoring heavily, leaving us all staring out into vacancy—em- phatically “sold!’—Land and Water.

An Early Test.

Cotton may be distinguished from linen when one is buying handkerchiefs by moistening the tip of the finger and vressing to the handkerchief. If it wets through at once it is linen, while if any cotton enters into its nfanufac-
