AND READS TO FIND REMEDIES TO CURK HEADACHES. 1 remember reading in Josephus or somewhere else that King Solo mon was the first ereat botanist, for he studied the properties of every plant from the fir tree to the hysop that spingeth out of the wall and he knew all the herbs that were good lor man for medicine. I wish that he had handed down his wisdom so that we ooor mortals would know what kind of bark or roots or herbs or eaves to use when we get puny, and painfied. Maybe he did hand it down in the books that are lost, for the scriptures tell lis that all the rest of the acts oi bolomon are written in the books of Nathan, the Prophet, and Elijah and Iddo, the seer. May be we will find those books some ol these days for there is a railroad to Jerusalem now and the investigating yankee is digging away under the ruins of the temple. ' They have re cently found the stalls where he kept his fine chariot horses, 1,400 of them and which were driven by 700 hand some young men, who had . gold dusts sprinkled in then- hair every morning and it sparkled in the sun beams and made them look divine as they circled around on dress parade. That's what Josephus says. But I am afraid the botany will come too late for me and I will have to keep on experimenting until some thing kills or cures me. 1 he trouble is that if a sick man gets well he has taken so many different medicines that he doesnt know -what cured him. 1 had a 'mule that liked to have died, and I gave him everything that the neighbors told me from lye soap and molasses to kerosene oil and lastly we rubbed him with a rail and hori zontally until the hair all came off and he got well but our next sick mule "died before we got to the rail and the mule doctors are still in the dark. I've been reading a good deal of late in a standard book on medicine and I found seventeen re medies for hemicramia and twenty seven for pertussis. One of the de seases is neuralgia headache and oth er is whooping cough, but sometimes I forget which is tother and take the wrong medicine. The headache be longs to me and the cough to the little orphan we have and the mantleoiece and the bureau is full of bottles and vials and capsules and tumblers and spoons and the medir cines have such curious names on the labels that I forget which is mine and which is the child's. My doctor has given me . seven remedies and charged me for every experiment, but my neighbors have given me twenty seven free eratis- and I think I am a little better cqnsidering, but I can't tell who's ahead, my neighbors or the doctor. . If it wasn't for the interims sions I couldent get along at all, but almost every day I have a lucid inter val of a few hours and that keeps up my hopes. I have one now. I have been taking horse radish and pepper mint and turpentine, not through my mouth, but through the olfactory I openings just above, and experienced relief for a time, but it is a slow busi- j inrouumg icmpica wnu v-amwv. uu I have tried gentain for the last three days and now am on half rations of salt dissolved in a tumbler of water, which a friend said was the favorite remedy of Major Campbell Wallace, who is near ninety years of age and there is no telling how long a man would live if he would use it. A good, female friend sent word to string half a dozen nutmegs on a black thread and tie them around the throat. The word came to rie and I bored holes in them with an awl and stringed them 'and went to bed with them on, but I found out next morning that the nutmeg business was for the whooping cough. Another good neighbor sent word that another woman told her that if I would catch a roach and shut it up in a little paper box my headache would go off when'the roach gnawed Out or died. That reminds me of old Uncle Isam, whose remedy lor rheu matism was to mash a lizard's tail and let the ; reptile lay under the dborsill until it died. And that reminds me now how Neighbor Freeman had two hound dogs that wouldn't stay at home ; so he curtailed their tails about three inches and buried the fragments in the garden gate, and they never roamed away any more. But the, -like ol all that don't cure hemicranian headache nor pertussian whooping cough, and to my- opinion both will have to be nursed until the weather setdes down and the east winds shift to the south and west and stay there. They have called me to Brunswick to lecture, and I am go ing where the salt sea breeze will blow upon me gendy ; and I'm going to take the child and her mother and maybe we will all come back rejuven ated and remunerated. But I , believe in medicine and in doctors. We are bound to have them. Every body can't go to Burns wick nor to the Hot Springs, but the poorest people can boil down bark and roots and steep safron or something that will amuse the patient until nature cures him. I believe that there is a remedy for almost every disease except old age, and the doc tors are finding them out. Whoop ing cough ought to be cured in twenty-four hours and and it. will be when the germ theory of microbes and bacteria is fully understood. So let the experimenting: go on. Of course there will be victims, but there will be discovery, too. My wife and I nursed a boy in Florida for three long months . and the doctor's bills were $500, and the druggist's bill had eighty-seven different prescrip tions, and the boy got well. But though the doctors couldent tell what cured him they found out a good many things that dident, and that is making progress for the next case. But after all I believe that good nurs ing and home comforts and sympathy save more sick people than medicine, ana i wish that everybody had as much of these as I have and the child. What can doctors or medicine do for the poor in the slums ol the great cities, where there are no good clean beds, nor pure air, nor happy voices, nor any of the comforts of life If I dident have these and the blessed sunlight to shine through the window I think I would welcome death as a friend. But having these and more I am stilly calm and serene, I've got a few more things to take yet, and will then i be able to tell maybe what dident cure my head ache. But I feel that the lucid in terval :s passing away and must stop for the present. Yours in the bonds of hemierania, Bill Arp. The Kjirlnji, Of all seaaons one for making in the year, is the radical changes in regard to health. "During the winter, the system becomes to a certain ex tent clogged with waste, and the blood loaded with impurities, owing to lack.of exercise, close confinement in poorly ventilated shops and homes, and o4ther causes. This is the cause of the dull, sluggish, tired feeling so general at this season, and which must be overcome, or the health may be entirely broken down. Hood's Sarsaparilla has attained thegreatest nonulantv all over the I'onntrv as thft favorite Spring Medicine. It expels- the accumulation 01 impurities through the bowels,- Kidneys, liver, lungs and skin, gives to the blood the purity and quality necessary to good health and overcomes that tired feeling. A curious fact has recently been noted by the fine steel workers at Sheffield, England. It is this : Fine edged tools assume a blue color and loose all temper if exposed for any considerable length of time to the light of the sun, either in summer or Wintei . A similar effect is exercised by moonlight, a large crosscut saw with which the experimenters were working having been "put out of shape and its temper, ruined by a single nights exposure to a first quarter moon.''

Professor Elisaha Gray, whose numerous inventions for communica tion by electricity are well known, has perfected the telautograph, or long-distance writing-machine. This consists of a transmitter and a receiver associated lor use at one station. The structure of these in struments is remarkably simple and devoid of complication and the mode of operation is in all respects direct and positive. The methods for transmitting the electric impulses to the line and then converting them in the receiver into the corresponding movements of the automatic pen of a positive character and are therefore not dependent upon accidental changes in conditions. An ordinary lead pencil is used on the, transmitter, .near the point of which two silk cords are fastened at right angles to each other. ; These chords connect with the instrument, and, following the motions of which, control the receiving pen at the dis tant station. - A lever at the left is so moved by the hand as to shift the paper forward mechanically at the receiver. The receiving pen is a capillary glass tube placed at the junction of two aluminum arms. The glass pen is supplied with ink which flows from a reservoir through a small rubber tube placed in one of these arms. ' The electrical impulses coming over the wire move the pen of the re ceiver simultaneously with the move ments of the pencil in the'hand of the sender. p As the ipen passes over the paper an ink tracing is left, which is always a lac simile ol the senders motions, ; whether in the : formation of words, figures, or sketches. The telautograph instruments are at present manufcatured by the Gray Electric Company, which has erected a handsome and capacious brick building about one mile south of Highland Park, III. , on the line of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway. This company was organized express ly to manufacture the apparatus ' for the Gray National Telautograph Company, and has already invested $125,000 on its building and equip ment. It owns a tract of fifty acres and has constructed a. number of cot tages for its employees. The machin ery is the best procurable, and the in struments turned out are samples of superior workmanship. The main office of this company is at No. &v Broadway, New York. Its officers are as follows : T. M. Logan, president ; John W. Johnston, general manager ; W. H. Eckert, general superintendent, and Joseph E. Cox, secretary. SENDING PICTURES BY WIRE. Among the remarkable inventions brought out by electricity the telauto graph is one of the . most interesting. By it a sketch made in Chicago can be reproduced, in fac simile in New York almost instantaneously, or if a man in Boston wishes to settle an ac count in San Francisco the telauto- SraPn wil1 enable him to sign a check in the latter named place with suffi cient exactness to satisfy even that particular person' the paying-teller. Probably the capacity of the telau tograph will be developed : as itSy use becomes general, as this- has been the history of most similar inventions. New York Electricity.

A Mistake of a Hotel Bell ISoy Causes Tremendous Commotion. An earthquake or a fire could not have caused much greater, commotion and ex- ' citement at the Great Northern than did the simple mistake of a bell boy. A gen tleman had' been ill' for some .days in what is called.'in the technique of tho house, "1 33." .This meant room No. 85 on the I: floor. He rang thebell for a boy yesterday morning and told him that he was ill and to have a barber sent, to his room. The invalid thought the young negro messenger manifested more ex citement than the simple request called for, and he thought correctly: The boy, instead of telephoning idown stairs as usual, ran all the way down to tho "captain" and shouted, "Do man in I 35 wants the Bible sent to his room." "Wants what?" "Do Bible." . ' "The Bible:-" U ' "Yes, that's what I said; what de preacher reads from." The captain passed the word on to Clerk Raidt. . : Mr. Raidt is accustomed to responding quickly to every demand that is made, but for once in hisf career as a hotel man he was nonplused. "A Bible!" lie repeated, "a man in 1 35 wants a Biblel Miss -," he said to the cashier, "have you got a Bible?" "At home." ' In this hour of perturbation he forgot his politeness and shouted, "Wjiat good will that do a sick man at the Great Northern?" . He sent one boy to the barber shop, ono to the barrooi and one to the young lady typewriter. No one had a Bible. Just then Mr. Eden came in. Hi3 fore sight had provided for everything but a Bible, but to Ms intense relief heWxy Mr. Hurlbut approaching. 1 -. "Mr. Hurlbut," he said, "a gentleman up stairs wants a Bible." "A what?" ' ' "A Bible." "Spell it." -. ; "A B-i-b-l-e." "Well, that's the best joke I've lieard for a year; come, let's have someth" "No," replied Mr. Eden; "this is no joke; I'm in earnest. The gentleman is Kick and wants a Bible;" "He must be dying," said Mr. Hurl but; "better get a preacher too. Where's the directory? Here, boy, take this and find a preacher." , " Iu the meantime Mr. Eden had dis patched a boy to the nearest book store to buy a Bible. But before he returned an imperative demand came from flie gentle man in 1. 33 to hurry up; that he was tired of waiting. Mr. Eden sprang into one elevator, Mr. Hurlbut into another, and bell boy3 were dispatched in various directions to beg, borrow or steal a Bible. One of fhem ran into Commissioner Wickersham's room and told him of the exigency. All he could find was a bound copy of St. John's Epistle. He gave it to tho boy and bade him fly. The boy rushed into the invalid's room. "Here's the 'pistle of St. John, sah, all he could find, but Mas' Eden, he's sent out for do whole Bible.'' - Bible?" shouted the invalid; "what in do I want with a Bible? I want a barber." Just then he saw how the mis take had occurred, and when his physi cian, Dr. Tallman, came into the room he thought his patient had jumped from pneumonia to apoplexy. While the doc tor was using all his skill to quiet him, fearful of the consequences to one so weak, Mr. Eden rushed in with a new Bible as big as Webster's Unabridged Dictionary. After putting Mr. Eden .out in the hall Dr. Tallman remained with his patient the rest of the day. , But there is an interesting sequel to all this local commotion. When the boy went to the store to buy a Bible, he re lated something of the Circumstances. A lady member of the Chicago Tract soci ety was standing near and heard him. At 5 o'clock last evening a consignment of 500 small Bibles was sent to Hurlbut & Eden by the Tract societj', with the polite request that one be placed iu each room. Hereafter the guests of tho Great Northern vdll find a Bible chained some where in the room. So good conies' out of evil. Chicago Inter Ocean. '. Extraordinary Cure by Faith.
