Wm, Prendergast, of the township of ' etehcseer, a former resident of this village, tai known to alnront all in this mention, and ole warmly esteemed byail hiaacquaintancee, It le well known thau147r. Prendergast went eneeIstaa h a terrible siege of euffering, and that new of his friends hacl any hope of his ereoovery. Mr. Prendergast'n trouble was dema:tic enteritis (intestinal inflammation), and what he suffered at times can scarcely .bo described. Hundreds of dollars were :spent in medical treetmont, but avithemb avail. Sedatives, stimulants, tonics and external applications, eto., were miexae;asively tried with little or no result. :i'Brief temporary relief might ensue ; it was ohne very brief whoa the dread tormenter 'returned to smite him with fresh agony. In 2Cilaiia ;condition Mr. Prendergast continued eretil last summer, when the physician elereekly told him that his ease was incur - :able. The news came as a terrible shook to .wife and children. Long before this, Aloe a manful struggle, he hact been forced to give up work on his farm, but there had eeeteieys been Hopes of his recovery to buoy crap his family and friends. But the state- miernb that his case was considered incurable slaws like a atroko of impending doom, and !'his Mende constantly dreaded to hear that ^ala wvas no more. Buell was the condition of affairs at the nelmae of last summer, and a little later it wen understood that Mr. Prendergast was „,ger ntrig bettor, and on the way to recovery. :Lately one of hie friendswhile in the Herald raeneturn remarked, " Prendergast is on his lftsetagain and as sound as a bell." Inquiry :asneterally followed as to what had produced this remarkable result, and we were in- formed that his recovery was solely due to 'idle use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. The Herald had published the erticuiars of many remarkable cures by 'the use of this remedy, and while not by may moans sceptical, felt a strong .dareire to verify a case in our Ixnoslity, land accordingly drove to Mr. ort andergaatee. On reaching the house it :wan ascertained that Mr. Prendergast was Donna distance away in the field mending a nonce. Thither the scribe wended his way, wanting with a cordial welcome and an in- 'sittation to come bark to the house to din - seer. After dinner we urged him to tell mahout the remarkable change that had eakon place in his condition. At first he was inclined to put us off, saying that he :bated to think of the old days of agony and inisery. However, at last ho told us ;a11 he had undergone, his .tory bearing :oat what has been said concerning his con- e/Won. a'lftsr the doctors had given him up, his wife, hoping against hope, had urged him to airy Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He scouted the idea et Bret, saying that these things were all humbugs. Ab lash, more to please kis wife than anything else, he sent to ti'ember for sono of the Pink Pills. He had mat taken them many days when he found 'tx ey were giving him relief. The pain 3saeoned, his appetite began to return, and so did hope and confidence. He procured aaaother aanpply and found himself growing :daily stronger. He felt that he could walk `3'.hr>ugh the fields without the fearof being estricken down by a sudden pain. Later ".ee, resumed work on his farm and t'nund to his rmazeneent that ho teen Id do a hard day's work without fatigue. tri .a word that he had completely recovered. Me had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Palle at the outset without hope or benefit, and merely to please his wife ;now he finds them ;lit life boat and an ark of safety.

RETRIBUTION WAS SWIG'. One of the Two Dead Westfield .$iu'giara was from St, Catharines, HOW THEY WERE KILLED. A Westfield, N. Y., despatob gives these parbloulars of the death of two burglars, referred to in yesterday's despatches : Chautauqua creek runs (torose the foot of Mahn street at right angles at the bottom of a gorge which is about 50 feet deep, and has perpendicular rooky sides. The edge of the gorge is grown up with brush, so that at a distance of a few feet it omit be seen. A anspension bridge crones the stream and connects the, road with Main street. At 12.30 o'clock yesterday morning the night- watchmen of the village saw a man stead - bag on Main street at the corner of an alley, Ho reeked loam what he was doing there, and the man, instead of answering, began' to run. The night-watchman started after him. The man who bad been standing on the corner was the bettor runner, bub to faolli- tete bis progress he dropped a market baokeb containing a lot of butcher Irnive and razors. When the watchman saw that he could not hope to catch the fellow ho stopped and returned to the store. Juab as he reached the corner where the first man had been standing, two other men jumped head limb through the glass door of Bennieter's ebore and went sprawling on the walk. They soon recovered themselves, however, and etarbed to run down Main street towards the creek. They ran rapidly down the hill, and when they had almost reached the bridge they leaped the fence and plunged into the fringe of brush which conceals the edge of the gorge from view. They disap- peared and the watchman did not chase them further. ONB MAN FROM ST. CATHARINES. At 6 o'clock yesterday morning acme men who were going towork saw two bodies lying in the bed of the creek ab the bottom of the gorge. By thie time news of the burglaries had gained general circulation throughout the village, and it was at once concluded that these were the bodies of the men whom the watchmen had chased during the night. An examination proved this conclusion to be correct. Coroner Charles Blued, of Dunkirk; was notified and arrived on the scene. He searched the bodies, and found on one nine razors, twenty knives and a book, on the first page of which was wribten the names Thomas Fitz- gerald, Sandusky, 0., and J. W. Bramley,. St. Catharines, Ont. Thte man looked to be an Irishman. He was about 20 years old, and was dressed be a black suib off clothes, with a heavy blue flannel shirt. He wore a No. 6 shoe. His hair was out short and his face emoobh-shaven. The other man was about 22 years old. There was fully a week's growth of beard on hie face. He was dressed in blank clothes and bad en a white undershirt, but no shirt. . He looked to be a Polish Jew or an Italian. The thumb of tie righb hand was missing. In his pockets were found a copy of the Erie Despatch of July 12th, a Police Neres, 47 cents, 13 knives and 13 cigars. The neck of the Irishman was broken. Tho other man evidently died from internal injuries. The men must have been killed instantly, as their bodies lay in almost a direct line from the underbrush through which they broke. BE GOT KIS rICTUBtr, Slow a Persistent Camera Man tot Negatives of a Wreck. " I was in a wreck near Rossville, Ind., about a month ago," said ex -Justice Schwab to a Cincinnati Times -Star reporter. " We were on the way to Chicago, and were rudely awakened just before daylight by a grand crash. We found our poach hanging over a chasm formed by a break in the bridge over Middlefork River. The engine, tender and baggage -car and the trucks of our ear were down in the river. The ends of our coach rested on either side of the ragged gap in the bridge. A wrecking crew got there ab daylight, pulled us out of our predicament and started to clear. Then there was fun. "A photographer got there with the first rays of the morning sun, and prepared to take pictures for some illustrated journal. He got hie instrument set up, focussed and all ready, and was about to let'er go, when the foreman of the wrecking crew deliber- ately hold a shovel before the lens and spoiled the exposure. The photographer, an old band, fully acquainted with the policy of the railroad companies to prevent the photographing of wrecks, if possible, tried it again. He got back a trifle on higher ground, bub when all was ready again he found a line of men holding rubber coats on poles, obscuring the view of the wreck. His third attempt meb with a movement of the railroaders to smash his camera, and he hastily retreated with it to a neighboring fence. " All this time a middle-aged, deter- mined -looking farmer leaned over his fence, within fifty yards of the broken bridge, an interested spectator of the proceedings. To him the photographer wenb and asked the privilege of taking the picture from his land, promising to him a copy of the picture made. That was agreeable to the farmer, and the camera was soon in position again, bub again the rubber coats went up and stopped the businees. Then the farmer determined to have a picture if it cont a farm. Sending his man to the barn he directed him to hitch up a waggon, and, after fastening a high step ladder into it, he drove down to the fence corner, took the photographer aboard, and in a few minutes the latter had scoured several good exposures of the entire wreck. The coats could nob be raised high enough that time, bub the whole wrecking orew made for the waggon, determined to wreck the camera. - But the farmer, with a few words, gathered a dozen or so of stout farm hands about him and, armed with clubs, they got aboard the waggon,surrounded the photographer and camera and, standing off the wrecking crew, drove off the field safe and in triumph." .moron w'ho are puny, pale, weak, or scrofulous, ought D take Doctor X'ierce's Golden G1sdical Discovery.

Baked rice and tomatoes.—Butter a medium-efzed baking dish and line the bottom with a layer of rice.

Make a paste the same as for eclaires, save that instead of one teaspoonful of sugar three must be used. As soon as the paste is cooked beat in the melted chocolate. When cold add the eggs and beat until light. Drop this batter on lightly -buttered pans in round Oakes, having about a dessert- spoonful in each cake. Bake for about twenty minutes in a moderately hot oven. Serve either hot or cold, with whipped cream. Heap the cream in the centre of a flab dish and arrange the profiteroles around it.

The florin, ono of the most' famous of modern °eine, originated in Florence. Some say thab it gave the name to the city, while others assert that it was first so called be- cause it had on it a flour de lie, from the Italian florone or " flower," for the same reason that an English silver piece ie called a " crown," or certain gold pieces in France indifferently a " Napoleon " or " Louis," or the ten -dollar gold piece in America an " eagle." For several hundred yeara, and down to a comparatively recent date, according to the Home Journal, money was coined at from twenty-five to thirty different cities in France that had inherited the privilege. Now all French mauey is coined at the Paris mint. Few French gold pieces are in circulation, except these bearing the head of Napoleon III., and silver pieoes of the same coinage are alined as common. French sliver coins wear admirably, and pieces of the reign of Charles X., Louis XVIII. and Napoleon I. are very common, The standard coins on the Continent are —in France, the franc ; in Spain, the peseta ; in Italy, the lira ; in Holland and Austria, the florin ; in Germany, the mark; in Russia, the ruble. 6 Belgium and Switzerland nee the French name for the piece of twenty sons. Each of these pieces ie, like the American dollar, divided into one hundred parte, called ko- peck in Russia, pfennig in Germany, kreut- zer in Austria, centhi Holland, and inItaly, France and Spain by the word meaning hun- dredth. The word shilling is of German deriva- tion, like penny, which comes from the German "pfennig." The werd "crown" comes from the image placed on the coin. The name franc wan gtvon by King John, who first coined these pieces in 1360. They bore the motto "Le Roi Frank" (King of the Franks) and were of two kinds, one represent. ing the king on horeback, the other on foot. The franc was formerly else called the livre (pound), though the connection with any special weight is nob evident. The name of the German coin, mark, meaning a weight of eight ouneee, was formerly in general nee in Europe. The name of the Italian coin that corres- ponds with the franc (lira) also means pound. The coins in present use in Spain have their names from other sources. The five -cent piece, which corresponds with the American dollar, is called eeende (shield). " Peseta," the name of the small coin representing the monetary standard, means simply " little piece." " Ruble" is from the word meaning " to cub," and was so palled because originally the coin was made with an ornamental edge. Few persons have ever troubled them- selves to think of the derivation of the word dollar. It is from the German that (valley) and Dame into use in this way some 500 years ago. There is a little silver mining. otty or district in Northern Bohemia called JoachimethaI, or Joachim's Palley. The reigning duke of the region authorized this city in the sixteeutb century to coin a silver piece which was called " Jaohimbhaler." The word " Joachim " was soon dropped, and the word " thaler" only retained. The pisoe went into general use in Ger. many and Denmark, where the orthography was changed to " deler," where it came into English, and was adopted by the Americans with still further changes in the spelling. The Mexican dollar is generally called " piastre" in France, and the name is sometimes applied to the United Status dollar. The appellation is incorrect in either case, for the word piaster or piastre has for the last fifty years been only applied with cor- rectness to a email silver coin used in Turkey or Egypt, which is worth from 5 to 8 cents.—Queries Mag.

They are 111ind•Iteadors Mather than Word. Readers. While doge generally do not really know the meaning of one-half the words that their masters think they know, they cer- tainly do learn to discriminate between cerbain words with the sound of which they have been made familiar. They are, how- ever, much bettor mind-readers than word - readers, says Youth's Companion. It is a common thing to hear psople say of a dog, " He understands every- thing that is said." I do not believe that bhls was ever true of any dog, nor any- where near true. Intelligent dogs know their names and generally recognize the meaning of some half dozen other words. Bat they are so wonder- fully quick in the use of their instinc- tive perceptions—no much quicker than civilized ,human beings ever are—that people who see them exercise these per- ceptions often unreasoningly assume that they understand the words upon which, rather than upon instinctive preception, human beluga bate their actions. I will illustrate what I mean. I once had a Newfoundland that was re- garded as a marvel of intelligence. In the evening, when I made to him soma such wordy speech as this : " In my opinion, the hour has arrived when every well -re- gulated canine citizen should retire for the night," he would, to the great wonder of strangers, pick himself up from the rug reluctantly, stretch, look furtively at me, and then go away to his sleeping place in the shed. But if, at the right time and in the accus- tomed way, I repeated a phrase from the Scriptures or quoted a line of poetry in a foreign language, the dog would retire in precisely the same way. Ib was the under- stood wish, not the speech, that he obeyed. Often the best.trained dog seems to fail to understand an accustomed command. Every one who is familiar with dogs knows that these cases often happen, and that when they do the command musb be re- peated until the animal somehow catches it.
