The Paris Chief of Police Out-
' witte4.
Some years ago the contraband
trade in Swiss watches. was carried
to such an excess that the Paris
Chief of Police considered himself
called upou to make a great exertion
to seek to punish the offenders.
With this view h(1) repaired to
Geneve. He then appiied to a
celebrated dealer in *etches, to sell
him one hundred of the finest quali-
ty. When the price was agreed up-
on, the Chief disclosed the condition
that they must be del vered in Paris,
to which the watch ealer ;readily
consented, !von an additional sum

examined, bUt to no purpose. He
protested that he was only a com-

to diaclese tlie means he had used to
pass the watphes over the lines ;
but he was rhet only *ith a simile
and an evaiiion.
Finding that persuasion •had so
little effect, ; he next resorted to
threats, but with no better success ;
finally he determined to use that
master -key Which so often unlocks
the bosom where secrets, not other-
wise discovetable, lie hidden. '
He agteedto give the watch -deal-
er '10,000 francs, provided he would
make a full disclesure, and more-
over he agreed tot indemnify him
from. all the 4isegreeable consequen-
ces which mieht otherwise have oc-

This bargain aareed upon, and
consummated by tile payment of the
money, tl3e watch -dealer began :
'Sir, when you came to my store

There are but few preparations of medicine
which have withstood the imptutial judgment of
the people for any great length of time. One of
these is Tatoxasi Eaaoanre Ora, purely a prepar-
ation of six of some of the best oila that are known,
each one possessing virtues of its +aim. Scientific
physicians know that medicines may be formed of
several ingredients in certain fixed proportions 'of
greater power, and producing effeets which could
never result from the use of any one Of them, or in
different oambinations. Thee in the preparation
of this oil a chemical change takes place, forraing
compound whieh could not by' any possibility be
made from any other combination or proportions
of the 5=10 ingredients, or any other ingredients,
and entirely different from anythittg ever before
made, ono which producee the most astonishing aa.
suits, and having a wider range of application
than any medicine ever before discerned. It con-

applied you get the benefit of every drop ; whereas
