During my second year at the Jeffer-
son Medical College in Philadelphia, I
had a class -mate whom it would not be
uncharitable to call a dullard. One of
the professors was in the habit of tak-
ing the boys unawares and quizzing
them. 1e said to this fellow one day:
"How much is a dose of—?" giving
the technical name of croton oil. "A
teaspoonful," was the ready reply.
The tirofessor made no comment, and
the fellow soon realized that he had
made a mistake. After a quarter of
an hour he said: "Professor, I want to
change my answer to that question."
"It's too late. Mr —," responded the
professor, looking at his watch. "Your
patient's been dead fourteen minutes."

THE WONDERFUL a TORY OF A JOHNVILLE, QUE.,
MILLER—ATTACKED WITH INFLAMMATORY
RHEUMATISM AND PARALYSIS—HOW HE
FOUND A CURE AFTER HOPE IIAD BEEN
ABANDONED.
There are few men, says the Sherbrooke
Gazette, more widely known in this section
than Mr A. T. Hopkins, of Johnville, Que.
Previous to hie removal to Johnville, Mr
Hopkins resided at Windsor Mills and was
for three years a member of the municipal
council of that place. When a young man
Mr Hopkins was noted for his strength
and hie activity as awrestler. His strength
stands him in good stead, for he works hard
at his business, carrying heavy sacks of
flour in his mill for many hours during the
day. Active as he is, there was a time not
long distant when he was as helpless as an
infant and suffered intolerable agony.
About three years ago, he was attacked by
inflammatory rheumatism. It grew worse
and worse until, in spite of medical pre-
scriptions, after a year's illness he had a
stroke of paralysis. His right arm and
leg became quite useless. Sores broke out
on both legs. He suffered excruciating
agony, and had rest neither day nor night.
He sought the best medical advice, but no
hopes were held out to him by the physi-
cians. "He will certainly die within a
month," one well-known praotitioner told
his friends. "He will be a cripple for life,"
said two other doctors. It is no wonder
that, as he says, life became a burden to
him and he longed for death to relieve him
from his sufferings. He heard of Trr.
Williams' Pink Pills and determined to try
them. He did so, and before long be was
able to take outdoor exercise. He per-
severed with the treatment, and is to -day
nearly as strove as when a young man, and
s able to follow successfully the laborious
ailing by which be gets a living. Stich
as the wonderful story told the Gazette
by Mr Hopkins, who atribntes his recovery
tolelg-tto the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, aft he is willing to satisfy any per-
son who rimy call on him as to their won-
derful effects. -Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
strike at the root of the disease, driving it
from the system and restoring the patient
to health and strength. In oases of par-
alysis, spinal troubles, locomotor ataxia,
sciatica, rheumatism, erysipelas, scrofu-
lous troubles, etc.,these pills arefsnperiol to
all other treatment. They are also a speci-
fic for the troubles which make the lives of
so many women a burden, and speedily re.
-store the rich glow of health to sallow
cheeks. Men broke clown by overwork
worry or execs es, will find in Pink Pills a
certain cure. old by all dealers or sent

EGGS AGAIN.
The new compromise tariff bill which
has been submitted in the United
States Senate makes many radical
changes in the bill, snlne of which will
be a great surprise in C.tuada. The
changes are all in the..nature of in-
creases, and. some of them are of a
most extraordinary character, The
hill in its main features resembles a
cut-down McKinley bill, and some of
the cuts are very slight reductions
from tbe odious measure. There has
been al most extraordinary change in
the agricultural. schedule. Eggs for
instance, which were upon the free
list, have now been put back upon the
dutiable list at 5 cents a dozen, which
is the McKinley rate. The agrieesltur-
al schedule will be found to much more
resemble the McKinley tariff than it
will the House bill. There has been
an increase in coal from 40 cents to 50
cents a ton. This is a direct blow at
Canadian coal. In the House biil coal
was free. It is said that the Demo-
crats are] no nearer to a majority for
this new bill than they were before
the tinkering with the bill began.
The following area some of the chang-
es in the tariff of particular interest to
Canada. The changes are from the
bill now before the Senate, and all are
increases: Nickel and nickel oxide
are transferred from the free list, and
made dutiable, at 6 cents a pound.
Butter and substitutes therefor are
made dutiable, at 4 cents a pound.
Cheese, 4 cents. Fresh milk, 3 cents a
gallon, which was free before. Broom
corn tb6 per ton, free before. Cabbages,
2 cents each, free before. Cider, 3
cents a' gallon; free before. Eggs, 5
cents a dozen, free before. Yolk of
eggs, 15 per cent. ad valorem, free be-
fore. Hay, 52 per ton, which is the
House rate; the Senate rate was 20 per
cent. ad. valorem. Onions, 20 cents a
bushel. Honey, 10 cents a gallon.
Hops, 8 cents a pound. pried peas, 20
cents a bushel.- -Potatoes, 15 cents a
bushel. Fish smoked and dried, cents
a pound. Pickled herring, 1 cents a
pound. Preserved meats, 20 per cent.
ad valorem. Lard, taken from free
list and made dutiable, at 1 cent a
pound. Poultry, not dressed, 2 cents;
dressed, 3 cents a pound.
HEART DISEASE RELIEVED IN 30 MINUTES.—
All cases of organic or sympathetic heart
disease relieved in 30 minutes and quickly

AN ALASKAN BATH.
"Up in Alaska the method of taking a
bath is somewhat Heroic," remarked' a
traveller. "Every trading post has a bath-
house and the people are supposed to avail
themselves of its privileges once a week.
A person accustomed to living in a milder
climate would have a good deal of hesitancy
about undressing in one of these places, as
the temperature is always below zero. In
an inner room an arch of stones is built so
that a fire made 'beneath can penetrate. A
trap-door in the roof answers for a chim-
ney. After the stones have become
thoroughly heated and the smoke has passed
out, all the coals are removed and the trap-
door olosed. In this room stands a cask
of warm water and another that is ice-cold.
When the bather enters he pours hot water
on the stones until the room is filled with
steam, then, taking a seat on a bench, he
waits till the perspiration streams from
every pore in his body. Next he takes a
bunch of dried twigs and leaves, prepared
for the purpose,, with which he scrubs him-
self till all the impurities have been remov-
ed from the skin, following this with a
wash -off in warm water and soap. He con-
cludes his bath by dashing a bucket of ice-
cold water over his body, and then rushing
to the dressing -room, where, with his teeth
chattering, and shivering in every limb, he
resumes his clothes."

became vacant by the resignation, ten
months ago, of Rev J. M. Cameron.
Great Britain now owns a continuous
strip of territpry all the way from Cape
Town to Cairo. She is, therefore in a pos-
ition to build a railway and telegraph line
from one end of the Dark Continent to the
other without going outside the limits of
her own dominions. We all knew the
Mother Country had acquired vast posses-
sions in Africa, but few realized, up to the
publication of the despatch containing the
faots above outlined, how completely she
dominates the latest conquest of civiliza-
tion.
The American Consul at St. Thomas
had his office decorated with American
flags an the 24th of May, when some
foolish members of the Queen's Own,
Toronto, deliberately tore them down.
Lieut. -Colonel Hamilton, of the Queen's
Own, on learning of the incident, had
the special train held and came back
to the Grand Central Hotel and apolo-
gized on behalf of the men to Consul
Willis. He would not, however, ac-
cept the apology, and telegraphed a re-
port of the affair to the State Depart-
ment at Washington, and the Gover-
nor-General at Ottawa. The men
were fools, and the affair is likely to
lead to unpleasantness between the
Canadian and American government.
A (GLI' -MINE INSTEAD OF A
GRAVE.
"Some of the richest gold mines in
Colorado were stumbled upon in the
most accidental way," said a miner.
"When the gold fever was at its height
several years ago, a party of prospec-
tors travelling through the mountains
came upon the dead body of a man
lying beside the trail. 'Poor fellew,'
said one of them, 'he has passed in his
checks; let's give him a decent burial.'
They accordingly began to digagrave.
Three feet below the surface they dis-
covered signs of gold. The stranger
was buried in another place, and where
they had located a grave—a lgold mine
was o ned up which turned out to be
one of the richest claims ih that section
of the country. The mine was named
'Dead Man's Claim.' Another instance
is where an adventurer who drifted
into Leadville awoke one morning
without food! or money. Ile went up
into the mountains and shot a dr,

MRS. E.
Mrs E. Wiloox, of Creemore, Ont., is one
of the best known ladies in that section of
country. Young and old in and around
Cre.more are acquainted with this worthy
and honored lady, and implicitly rely on
any statement she makes.
Mrs Wilcox for some years suffered ter-
rible and keenly from nervousness and con-
tinual sink headache. Her condition was
serious and alarming at times, owing to
the fact c thatget she was u'n
able to e
6 t snffio-
ient sleep to rest a weary and run-down
body.
For a long period money was spent for
medicines and doctoring that brought no
good results. A grand and happy change
was immediately effected when Mrs Wil-
cox commenced to use Paine's Celery Com-
pound. The virtues of the great remedy
proved as efficious in her case as it has in
thousands of others.
Mrs Wilcox, desirous of recommending
Paine'e Celery Compound, writes as fol-
