IT PIA -YS TO It was about the Medicated whisky cure which we proposed to speak. To Dr. Iteehy, who, living down at Vvright, is almost a neighbor, credit is generally given for being the first per- sonwho employed the pharknacopoela for the purpona of killing a drunkard's appetite. But Dr. Keeley is by no means entitled to this credit. The first physician whole medicine ever cured a drinking man of his thirst was a Icing haired, spectacled old tourist who called himself "the Indian doctor,” end who operated dawn in the neighborhood • of elpre, 0. The doctor did not tell the Beget of his medicament, but three or four boys who . lived near the fartahouse where he boarded had an inkling, be- cause the boys had the coneraot for oats:Ming the toads for which the doctor paid them 10 cents' a dozen. While the dootor's abode has been spoken of as a farmhouse it was more than that, for, being near a stockyard, where trains "lay over," it was ale° a boarding house, or tavern, whither the drovers came for entertainment. Among the stockmen whose duties brought them frequently to the yards, and therefore to the farmhouse board- ing place, was amen named Joe Robin- son, who had drunk whisky all the way from St Louis to Baltimore, with spe- cial reference to Piedmont and the country along the 17 mile grade of the Baltimore and Ohio. Robinson was a firm, vigorous and vigilant drinker, one 'who allowed no guilty dramshop to es- cape. He wits such a shining light that at least 12 temperance societiee were working upon him at once, for it was known that the credit for his reforma- tion would mean much. But he resisted all their entreating efforts. This brings things up to one May veulug. Robinson had arrived at Belpre with seven cars of hogs and a large, commodious and farreaching jag. -He took the hogs into the steckvards and the jag to the city of Parkersburg, W. Va., just across the river, for he wanted to triln and orminent it a little before retiring. Now it so occurred that it was a damp night, and Harry Stone and Hughey Drai, the boys who had the contract for supplying hoptoads to the salve making Indian doctor, set out on their own hook and without consul- tation with their employer to get a flour bag full of toads. They were eminently successful, and at 8 o'clock they -ap- peared at the boarding house with a peck of kicking, piping, shrieking spoil. Far good measure they had on this oc- casion added three belated garter snakes, two lizards and a hoot owl. The family was not happy. Mrs. Bruce directed the boys to carry their burden, of the character of which she had no idea, up to the doctor's room, he being out. The boys did so— or at least they thought • they did—bat they turned the wrong corner at the bead of the stairs and deposited the sack in the room to be occupied by Joe ltEAL ESTATE FOR SALE.

PATENT APPLICATIONS. The Vast! Majority of Therm Sent to Wash- ington Are Rjected. The applications for patents Med av- erage about 15 a day. There are- 85 principal examiners, with perhaps 200 assistants. Every examiner and every assistant examiner has his own special- ty. Let us take the case, say, of a poor inventor lieing in Oregon. He makes a valuable invention and desires to ob- tain a patent He sends his application with $15 to the commissioner Of pat- ents. It is referred to the examiner hav- ing charge of that peculiar class of in- ventions. , It is his duty to reject It if anythiug can be found on which to base a rejection. Nearly 600,000 patents have been granted in the United States, and probably more than 1,000,000 in the rest of the world. If any of these anticipate the invention, the examiner must reject the application. It is not neoemary that exactly the same thing should have existed before, for if- any- thing sabstantially similar can be found the applicant must go to the walL But, more t been d tion, i .5•=151M5 Win.

Prepare for the Fall BY HAVING YOUR fiVothes Cleaned or Dyed ----AT- 13arr's Dye Works MARKET STREET, SEAFORTH. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Robinson. Mr. Robinson came home from Par- kersburg about midnight. The evening had been a most successful one. He had found 12 new saloons. He entered the room iu the boarding house with the presumption that hewas either the czar of Russia or Napoleon Bonaparte, but Was not quite sure which. In his doubt he collided with the paper flour bag full of hoptoads and things. There were a few words of wicked derivation, and then, turning up the light, Mr. Robin- son looked to see what he had found. "Who're you, feller?" he inquired, addressing the bag. "Won't answer, hey? Too p'lite to talk to a drover, huh? 'Jeri! Take that!" And he aimed an unsteady kick at the doctor's ingre- dients. Then things happened. • An active garter snake left the bag in raidair, and, alighting on a picture frame, twisted and equirmed before Mr. Robinson's view. Then the toads !Jew raining around him, and when he felt most sueprised and interested the owl came forth and flew at the lamp. The sack fell to the floor and a lizard shot into lengthened view and the rest of the hoptoads leaped out into comparative liberty. Mr, Robinson clambered in fright upon the bed and found himself in the presence of half a dozen of the hatrachian invaders which had been flung upon the ceanterpane by the force of that very vigorous and masterful kick. He crept behind the bureau and, lol a garter snake dropped therefrom and made for the shelter of the closet. In the middle of the floor there were, he believed, about 8,952 varied kinds of hopping visitors, and with a wailing oreldr. Robinson crashed through the vortex and made for the door and bolted for the night outide. The next morning every pale and un- strung man appeared at the farm board- ing house and answered to the name of Joe Robinson. He went up to his apart- ment and looked about for some signs of -the vieitation of the night before, but the toads and things, more frightened than he, had escaped by the same door through which he had gone,- while the careful hired girl had gathered up the flour bag and burned it. Mr. Robinson sat down and - thought for a moment, and then he said, addressing himself to the picture frame from Which the snake had dangled, that tis was the last time. He hdd hd-enough. More would be too much. And for the remaining 14 years of his travels that way be was the enbereat drover known to history.

We believe the bestiauthorities are gen- erally skeptical as to there being any cure for confirmed habits of inebrity un- less the effort in that direotion be aided by a strong exercise of the will of the unfortunate subject of the bad habit. There are, however, .n3any remedies re- comnaended as aids in diverting or in a minor degree satisfying the appetite for strong liquors which are undoubtedly of great advantage in some eases, and one of these is thus- recommended by a self styled "rescued man." "I was one of those unfortunates given to strong drink. When I left it off, I felt a horrid want of something - I 'Mist have or go distracted. I could neither eat, - Work nor sleep. Explaining my affliction to a man of much education and experi- ence, he advised me to make a decoction of ground quaesi, a half ounce steeped in a pint of vinegar, and to put about a small teaspoonful of it in a little water, and to drink it down every time the liquor thirst came on. It satisfied the cravings and it suffused a feeling of stimulus and strength. I continued this cure and persevered till the thirst was conquered. For two years I have not tasted liquor and I have no desire for it. Lately, to try my strengthI have han- dled and srnelled whisky, but I have no temptation to take it.

They are round, with grooved surfaces. Similar balls are occasionally found in Borneo and Java, as well as in Aus- tralia. Mr. Verbeek thinks they cannot be artificial, and there are no volcanoes near enough to support the theory that they are Volcanic bombs. Besides, he says, the glassy rocks produced by the nearest voleanot are quite different in their nature from the material of the balls.
