Even in the later periods of that disease, the cough is wonderfully relieved by this medicine. "I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral with the best effect in my practice. This wonderful preparation mice saved my life. I had a constant cough, night sweats, was greatly reduced in flesh, and given up by my physician. One bottle and a half of the Pectoral cured me."—A. J. Eidson, M. D., Middleton, Tennessee. " Several years ago I was severely ill. The doctors said I was in consumption, and that they could do nothing for me, but advised me, as a last resort, to try Ayer'e Cherry Pectoral. After taking this medicine two or three months I was cured, and my health remains good to the present day."—James Birehard, Darien, Conn. • "Se}reras years ago, on a passage home from California, Water, X contracted 'so severe a cold that for some days I was confined to my state -room, and a physician on board considered my life in danger. Happening to have a bottle of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, I used it freely, and my lungs were soon restored to a healthy condition. Since then I have invariably recommended this prep- aration."—J. B.

If we should levy a duty on tea, for instance, such a duty would have to be added to the uvet of tea, awl rhe money would be collected mostly out of the laboring classes, who Consume most 0g the tea. America cannot pro, duce tea, and we cannot lit Ing about a competition therefore in this mar kat between home and foreign tee, or driye down the price, melee com- pel the foreign producer to pay the duty in oilier to get into our mar- kets. There is no tea raised in this country, with which the foreign tea must compete; and hence the im- porter must add the amount of the duty to the price, and collect the same from our consumers. Not so, however, with an article a hich we can produce in great quantities in this country. Take coniwou salt, an article of prime necessity, used even more universally than tea. The price of salt has been constant- ly cheapened aiuce Canada began to produce it under tariff laws. Salt is now at the very lowest possible point in price consistent with fair wages to the men who make salt. Tire great bulk of the salt consumed in this country has for years past been made here; and any foreign saltniaker who gets into our markets should he able to do so only on con- dition that he pay a similar duty to that charged on our salt going into his country, The United States tax Canadian salt nearly double our present tariff. Let us have recis procity in tariffs. Whatever the American tariff is on salt or other commodities let ours be the same. • YANKEE MORTGAGES. The superintendent of the census reports 9,000,000 real estate mort- gages in force in the United States on the let day of June, 1890. That is an average of one mortgage to every seven persona of our popu- p u - sons gage. ami - port ands , an rson, tate. creat cent. hose n r'e - tion- ated Eng - more the ticut arge less ork 50 elve will old -pay o i 10 mo rich they are pledged to• creditors, In Pennsylvania the same conditions exist, and in Ohio, Indiana, Michi- gan, Kentucky, Tennessee—every state in the union. In addition to these individual incumbrances rail- roads and municipalities aro nearly all in debt.. There are but few, if any railroads in the country that would sell for enough to pay their debts ; some of them owe many times as much as they are worth. Kansas railroads, for example, are indebted for bonds and stock eight tit -etre as much as their assessed valuation amounts to. And this is not all. A vast amount of personal property is pledged under chattel mortgages. It is not extravagant to state that at least two million American families at this time have more or less personal property mortgaged.—C/iicego Herald. REALISTIC HANGING SCENE A STAGE VILLiAN NARROWLY ESCAPES THE FATE TIE SIMULATES. At the St. Louis, Mo,, London Theatre, a second-class variety show, Horace Cone was last week playing a drama entitled "Jack the Ripper," the culminating scene of which is the execution of Jack. Last night Jack (Horace Cone) was hanged in fine style, and an immense audi once enjoyed his dance in the air. But with the . dropping of the curtain the enactment of another scene began. Mr. Cone had been "cut down" and the black cap re• moved but the map ]vele insensible and his face was changed in color. His wife, standing by. gave a shriek and fainted away, and for a few minutes the greatest excitement and confusion 'prevailed, Physfeiaus weie O of to ati a i s moil n i and ccs i .vas u. P plied,butat'woe nearly half fan hour before the titan regained con- ecioueuess. He was then taken to hie hotel and put to bed. This evening he said : "I believe I am all right now, except that my throat is still sore from the shaking. It was all my fault. I neglected to fasten one portion of my harness tight enough, and the result was that my throat or chin had to bear all the weight, It was a narrow escape. I've fixed the harness since in such a way treat such an accident will be an utter impossi- bility in future.' Mr. Cone said that this was the first salivas accitjeny he 1a dad lb the character of Jack the Ripper since his fall at Dallas, Tex., when his head struck a beam as he fell, breaking his left jaw hone and knocking out several of his teeth. A TELEPHONIC ROMANCE. CHICAGO, Sept. 29.—W. W. Wheeler did not ring off when he was through with his telephone a week ago Monday. The patient young woman in the main office on Washington street called "Hel- lo, fiveoughtninefour ! Are you through I" until she was tired. Then she broke the connection of 5,094 with a North Side wire. She might have asked all day and rung all night without a response, for W. W. Wheeler had gone out of his of- fice at a bound, leaving the receiver dangling alongside the box and was even then lashing his his galloping horse down Clinton street. A strange thing had come to pass. The telephone, having broken up fami- lies and made enemies of friends and turned father against son, had finally repented the evil of its ways and brought together a brother and sister lost to each other for five and twenty years. That long ago the Wheelers lived in Canada, a happy and contented family. There were the father and mother and two children, William and Helen. Mrs. Wheeler died, anti her husbanc, after a time, mar- ried a second wife. The marriage, like too many of its kind, did not result happily. The second Mrs. Wheeler and the children wore not congenial, and so it came about that, 25 years ago this fall, the boy, Wil- liam W. Wheeler, left his home and struck out for himself. His family made enquiries for him, but these came to nothing, and gradually the search was given up and the boy drifted out of the remembrance of all his relatives but one. Isis sister, Helen, never forget him and never ceased to love him. Five years later it seemed best for her also to look out for herself and to leave the home of her childhood. Thie she did,and for a time lived with friends in Canada. As the years went by she was•more and more attracted to the United States, and finally came here to live. Six years ago she reached Chicago and became a contented in- mate of the home of William D. Kerfoot, the wealthy real estate man and world's fair director. THECGOOD FAIRY OF THE TELE• PHONE. At that time she had not heard from her brother for nineteen years, but, womanlike, she never forgot him. The yore came and went, but she kept his memory green and waited patiently but not despairing- ly for the day to arrive when they should meet. One week ago last Sunday afternoon Miss Wheeler was idling away the time at Mr. Ker•• foot's home, and, entirely by chance as it seemed, her hand rested upon the telephone book which lay upon a table by her side. Was it chance'1 Did her hand fall by pure accident upon the volume'1 Miss Wheeler cannot think so. She opened the book and carelessly looked over the list of names. After a time curious- ity prompted her to look at. the tele- phone subscribers who bore her own name. She listlessly turned the pages until she came to the Wheel- ers, and her attention was riveted upon the following liines : 5,094—W1 -tenet, W. 1V., rock, asphalt and cement paver, 11-13 South Clinton street. It was her brother's name ! She started at the sight of the familiar initials, and then laughed at her own foolishness. Meetings like 'this were not possible outside of novels. But the name brought mem- ories, and she sat with the open tele- phone hook in her lap and thought of the old home in Canada and their childhood days. .W. IV. Wheeler, telephone, 5,094 ! "I will call that men tip to -morrow," she said. She was up early Monday morning and moving impatiently about the house, When she thought it was time for a business man to be in his office, she rang and called up 5,094. "Hello !" "Hello !O "Is this Mr. 'Wheeler I" "Yes." "Did you over live in Canada I" "Yes. A good many years ago." "What was your father's name I" He gave it, and in response to a sin►jler . pas p, .tthout,tregthes gave her name. Then there was a pause and presently a voice trem- bling with emotion was heard over the wire : �. fir.

Are yore Helen 1" "I am Helen," THE MEETING OF BROTHER AND SISTER, Mr. Wheeler flung down the re- ceiver after learning her address, and jumped for his hat. Running to his buggy, which aloud just unt- side the dour, he leaped into tt and lashed the horse into a gallop. Peo- ple who saw him thought he was crazy. Ile stood upright, flogging, the animal with mad blows. In just twenty minutes after he had been rung up un the telephone he was at Mr. Kerfoot's door, and hia sister Helen was in his arms. Ho could hardly wait for satisfactory ar- rangements to be made. Twenty- five years is a long time, and brother and sister had lunch to say to each ether.

TIIE GOOD FORTUNE OF A NORTH DA- KOTA FARMER. From a small farm on the North Dakota proiries to a fine old Eng- lish estate and a seat in the house of lords is a long step, but James S. Sinclair, Nelson county, Dakota, has made the stride. The Sinclair& were distantly related to George 'Phillipe Alexander, Earl of Caith- nees, but AO slight was the tie of kinship that no one in the family expected to profit by it. James Sinclair emigrated, and pur- chased a tract of land four miles from Dakota. Ile called the place I3erriedale, an old family name, and: the title bestowed by courtesy upon the oldest son of the Earl of Caith- ness. By a strange fatality all the people between Sinclair and the title died. Sinclair's friends and the family solicitor apparently had an exceedingly contracted idea o� the area of the Northwest, as tette sent to him were simply addressed to "James Sinclair, Berriedale farm, near Dakota." One after another the communications found their way to the dead letter office at Washing- ton, and five months were spent by the department officials in discover- ing the right address of the man for whom the letters were intended. Tracers were sent out to every city r'nd village in Minnesota, Nebraska and Dakota, and finally the heir was. located. t' TRUE s'AITH.
