P., for the cure of rheuma tism, neuralgia, dyspepsia, biliousness, etc. In 1861 I was attacked with bilious muscular rheumatism, and have been a martyr to it ever since. I tried all med icines I ever heard of, and all the doc tors in reach, but I found only tempora ry relief; the pains were so bad at times that I did not care whether I lived or died. My digestion became so im paired that everything I ate disagreed with me. My wife also suffered so in tensely with dyspepsia that her life was a burden to her; she would be confined to her bed for weeks at the time; she al so suffered greatly from giddiness and loss of sleep. Some time in March 1 was advised to take P. P. P., nod before w.j (my wife and I) had Gawked the sec ond bottle of P. P. P., our digestion be gan to improve. My pains subsided so mueu that I have been able to work, and am feeling like doing what I have not done before in a number of years. We will continue taking P. P.

The First Child Ever Born to a Pres ident in the White House. Washington, September 9. An other girl baby was born to Pres ident and Mrs. Cleveland to-day. The birth of a baby in the White House was of course an event in which more than usual interest was felt. In an incredibly short space of time the news was known in Congress and was spread through all the Departments. The imminence of the important event, was made known early in the day by the issue of an order countermanding the usual Satur day concert by the Marine Band in the White House grounds. Dr. Bryant, who accompanied the President and Mrs. Cleveland back from Gray Gables and- took up his quarters in the White House, was the attending physi cian. The latest information ob tainable is that Mrs. Cleveland and her latest daughter were both doing well. The closest reticence was main tained at the White House as to the event. The first statement given was that the event took place at 2 p. m. Later, it was permitted to be known that the event occurred exactly at noon. The President was informed of the event by Dr. Bryant, who, it is said, did not mention it to Pri vate Secretary Thurber until 2 p. m. In the meantime the news had become known outside, the first public mention being made of it in the War Department. Mrs. Perrin, Mrs. Cleveland's , ' - - ';a - m nt hpr ig mi Iiav urn d n i but has not yet arrived. The ! President during the morning at- tended as closely as usual to bis official duties.

The President absented him self from his office shortly before 12 o'clock, and remained anx iously awaiting a message. When informed by Dr. Bryant of Mrs. Cleveland's safety, he also went to his wife's chamber, and two hours afterwards quietly re-entered his office, and authorized Mr. Thurber to confirm the ru mor, which by this time was run ning all over the city. The baby is a bi ight-eyer', healthy looking young lady. She has not been weighed, but is said to be of good size. This is the first child born to a President in .the White House, though there have been other births in the Ex ecutive mansion. Just before the occurrence of ihe day the gates leading through I the rear part of the Executive park were closed to insure abso lute quiet about the Mansion. Earlier in the day orders had been issued suspending the regu lar Saturday afternoon concert of the Marine Band for to-day and the rest of the season. Immedi ately after the news had been con firmed members of the cabinet and their wive6 called to congrat ulate the President and to leave tbeir cards for Mrs. Cleveland. Attorney Getieral Oiney happened to be at the White House when the President came back to his office from the house shortly after 2 o'clock and was the first mem ber of the official family to ten der his good wishes. Bunches of roses from intimate friends are pouring into the While House to-night and there is a gen eral air of suppressed excitement about the employes of the Man sion. Telegrams of congratula tion have been received from all parts of the country. Missouri Ohurch Festivals. Down in Misouri they have in troduced hugging societies to swell the church treasury, and a Missouri paper gives the follow- ing scale of pi ices: Girls under 16, 15 cents for a hug of two min utes, or 10 cents for a short squeeze; from 16 to 20, 20 cents: from 20 to 25, 75 cents; school marms 40 cents; another man's wife $1; widows, accordiug to looks from 10 cents to $3; old maids, 3 cents a piece, or two for 5 and no limit of time.

Although lightning and thun der occur always simultaneously, an interval of shorter or longer duration is usually observed be tween those two phenomena, , , i suuuu iru.veis uniy ai me rate oi j 1,100 feet per second, while the passage of light is almost instan- taneous. Based upon this fact it , A x ,, , is an easy matter to tell at least . L , , . approximately how many miles a thunderstorm is away. A normal pulse will beat one stroke to the second, aud by counting the pulse-beats during the intervals of the lightning and the thunder the lapse of seconds is arrived at, aud consequently the number of feet, which can be reduced to'miles. For example: If thirty seconds elapse between the flash of the lightning and the crash of the thunder the storm center is at a distance of 33,000 feet or about six and a half miles. An almost accurate calculation cau be made with using a watch with a minute dial. St. Louis PosJ-Diepatcb. Preacher In Trouble. Rev.
