Robbed the Grave. A startling incident is narrated by John Oliver of Philadelphia as follows: "I was in an awful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite, growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Then I was advised to use Electric Bitters; to my great joy the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks and am now a well man. I know they robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fall to try them. Only 50 cents, guaranteed, at W. B. Hutchinson's drug store. A WHISTLER PICTURE. The Dramatic Manner of Its Finish and an Anticlimax. Whistler was one day visited by a foreign artist, an old acquaintance, with whom Whistler had not as yet quarreled. He was received with genuine cordiality, and, artist-like, he ran round the studio looking at everything. One small picture seemed to charm him especially, and he said, "Now that is one of your good ones." "Don't look at it, dear boy," said Whistler altrily, "it's not finished." "Finished!" said the visitor. "Why, it is the most carefully finished picture of yours that I have ever seen." "Don't look at it!" persisted Whistler. "You are doing injustice to yourself, you are doing injustice to my picture, and you are doing injustice to me!" The visitor looked bewildered, when Whistler, in a theatrical tone, cried out: "Stop! I'll finish it now!" Then he procured a very small camel's hair brush, fixed it on a long and slender handle, mixed a little speck of paint on his palette, dipped the tip of his brush into it, and then standing off from his picture and with the action of a fencer with his raker, he lunged forward and touched the picture in one spot with his pigment. "Now it's finished," said he. "Now you may look at it." This was all highly dramatic, and indeed very well acted, but, as in the case of some stage plays, the final act of Whistler's performance proved to be an anticlimax. The foreign artist took his leave, but, finding that he had left his umbrella behind him, called for it next day. The servant, recognizing him, told him that Mr. Whistler had gone out for the day, but invited him to go to the studio and seek his umbrella. He went there and found it, but also took the opportunity of having one more look at the picture which had been "finished" for his special benefit the day before, and then FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM. Sketch of the industries and Resources of the Most Beautiful City of California. The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foothills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California. The climatic conditions are the most favorable for out-door life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east. The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc. The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds. Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry, ostrich farm, bank, several adequate hotels and several adequate facilities.

Hidden Water Supply. The investigation of a neglected spring or rivulet may bring to light a valuable supply of water for gardening or domestic purposes. A surprising quantity is often obtainable by installing a ram at some seemingly insignificant source. A ram is cheap, because the first expense is the last, there being no cost of maintenance, and it is satisfactory, because the ram requires no attention. Once started, it takes entire care of itself—Country Life In America. Twenty Shots In His Head. At the present time there is a keeper on a Hertfordshire estate who has about twenty shots in his head. Nearly thirty years ago this man was accidentally shot by an under keeper, and there were twenty-two holes in the hat he wore, which is preserved to this day. The injured man never had the shots extracted, was long between life and death and completely lost his hearing—London Standard. Qualified Approval. "How did you like the opera?"

"That is one of our chief aims." "Well, do you think you could educate Lizzie here so that in time she will be strong enough to help her mother do the dishwashing when the cook is on strike?" Spared the Historian. FACTS ABOUT ORANGE CO. The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent: Counties. No. farms. Acres. Los Angeles. 6577. 809,063 Orange. 2888. 509,436 Riverside. 2340. 472,007 San Bernardino. 2550. 219,132 San Diego. 2698. 809,419 But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California: Counties. Acres. Los Angeles. 85,644 Orange. 41,549 Riverside. 32,947 San Bernardino. 37,877 San Diego. 16,022 The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20,055; and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles. Orange county thus contains one-fifth the area of Los Angeles; yet its irrigated lands approach in area to one-half those of its neighbor to the north. Riverside embraces nine times its area, yet it irrigates 9000 more acres, or a fourth more than the belauded county on the east. San Bernardino is 25 times its size, yet its irrigated acres exceed those of this jumbo county by nearly 4000, approximately ten per cent. San Diego is eleven times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres more than the county on the south—300 percent is the former's irrigated area as compared with that of the latter—almost the irrigated area of San Diego and Riverside combined. Orange county possesses the finest system of irrigation, the most secure water rights, that exist in Southern California. That is what we have said many a time and oft. These figures prove it. It is the handsomest and most productive county that lies outdoors and is settling up faster than any other in the State. West Point's Origin. The operations of the troops eased in the war of the Revolution on attention to the romantic and manding heights of West Point within a few years after the contest, through the influence surviving officers of the Conn army it pleased President Washington to include in his message to o (1783) a recommendation for a tablishment of a military order here. The act creating the academy passed until the year 1802, and then as a means of giving countenance to the work of George Barren, we year before established a school for cadets at the Point quired the stimulus of a second with the mother country to offer deep rooted prejudice of the legislators against an institution they believed would become a aristocrat, and it was, thereafter until 1812 that the Military became a part of the army enlistment—Frank H. Taylor in Four News. Finding by Inquiry. A man asked the clerk of a Fifth avenue if a person named was staying in the hour clerk said he was, but he was that moment.

Writing a Book. A woman asks, said she write a great book. How should it? "Don't, I beg of you!" said she list. "Write one that pays, and else—study law." "I do not care to write a book sake of the pay," said she year was very young and must be for this. "Perhaps, after all, ter be a lawyer." So he became a lawyer, but ambition to write a great book over him again. "Anything but that," said to whom he told his wish. "If I like the law, be a doctor." So he studied medicine. In time, however, this paraphrase him. He still thought of this He felt that he had a mission "You could do so much more pulpit," said another. So he preached until the hour of it came over him. And he left the pulpit. One day he woke up and fled the great book was written laughed at the thought. the college for girls, "we are proud of the thorough athletic training we give our students.

Spared the Historian. On one occasion during Mommsen's residence in Italy, when making an excursion in the neighborhood of Rome with some tourists, the party was stopped by brigands. The latter, while busy rising the company's pockets, inquired their names. "Sono Theodor Mommsen," was the choleric professor's indignant reply, whereupon the chief of the band stayed his hand. He said he would scorn to rob one who had done so much for Italy's renown. A Kicking Deferred. Aunt Clara (to her young nephew, who has just brought a bucket into the parlor where she is sitting)—Good gracious, Tommy, what are you doing with that bucket? Take it down to the kitchen at once. Tommy—I want you to kick it, Aunt Clarn, 'cause I heard papa saying when you kick the bucket we'd get at the very least $25,000. Highway Fruit Trees. It will not do in this country to plant fruit trees along the public highways as is done with great success in many European countries. The great state farm of Hungary distributes 15,000 choice fruit trees without cost to townships and communities which will plant and care for them until bearing age. The characteristic American boy would never permit a fruit of any sort that can be eaten to reach the age of maturity unless a full grown bulldog was kept chained to each tree.—Farm and Ranch.

Try for Health 222 South Pooria St., Chicago, Ill., Oct. 7, 1902. Eight months ago I was so ill that I was compelled to lie or sit down nearly all the time. My stomach was so weak and upset that I could keep nothing on it and I vomited frequently. I could not urinate without great pain and I coughed so much that my throat and lungs were raw and sore. The doctors pronounced it Bright's disease and others said it was consumption. It mattered little to me what they called it and I had no desire to live. A sister visited me from St. Louis and asked me if I had ever tried Wine of Cardui. I told her I had not and she bought a bottle. I believe that it saved my life. I believe many women could save much suffering if they but knew of its value. Surgical Doctor Don't you want freedom from pain? Take Wine of Cardui and make one supreme effort to be well. You do not need to be a weak, helpless sufferer. You can have a woman's health and do a woman's work in life. Why not secure a bottle of Wine of Cardui from your druggist today?

The Way Shallors Ascertain How Many Knots They Are Going. "How do you ascertain the speed of a ship?" is a question frequently addressed to naval men, and an explanation will therefore probably be of interest to many readers. There are several methods, says Army and Navy, illustrated, the commonest and most ancient being by the use of the log. This instrument consists of three parts, the logship, the line and the marks. The logship is a piece of wood about half an inch thick and shaped like a quadrant, with a piece of lead let in round the circular edge to make it not perpendicularly in the water. It is hung by lines at each angle, the three lines being joined together about two feet from the logship. Two of the lines are securely fixed to the ship, and the other has a bone peg at the end, which being pushed into a hole in the ship, temporarily fastens it there. From the point of juncture of the tree lines a sufficient length is measured, generally about 100 feet, to take the logship well clear of the ship's wash. This is called the "stray line" and is marked with a piece of bunting. From the bunting is measured 47 feet 3 inches and the line marked here with a piece of leather. Then another 47 feet 3 inches is measured off and marked with two knots, then another space the same length and marked with three knots. Half way between each batch of knots one single knot is made. The log line is then ready for use. The space between the knots is found from the simple little rule of three sum—as 3,600 seconds (number of seconds in an hour) is to twenty-eight seconds (length of sandglass), so are 6,080 feet (number of feet in a nautical mile) to the length of line required, which works out to 47 feet 3 inches. To use the log four persons are required—two men to hold the reel on which the line is wound, the quartermaster to hold the glass and the midshipman of the watch to heave the log. The last named puts the peg firmly in the logship and then gathers three or four colls of line in his hand, sufficient to admit of the logship being thrown well clear of the ship. He asks, "Clear glass, quartermaster?" "Clear glass, sir," comes the reply, and overboard go the logship and line, the reel rapidly revolving. Presently the middy feels the piece of bunting passing through his hand, and he gives the order, "Turn." The quartermaster turns the glass and watches the sand, while Doctor CU One of His Prescrip THAT Love sometimes causes to the attention of the public in some nervous diseases of as hysteria, this physician gave where women were put in frame of mind, were made living in love, and in conserved of their nervous weak, nervous system tones lated by little Dr. Cupid—and vigorous, almost knowledge.

In such cases they sound—the nervousness and toms are telegraphed all The operations of the troops engaged in the war of the Revolution directed attention to the romantic and commanding heights of West Point, and within a few years after the close of the contest, through the influence of surviving officers of the Continental army it pleased President Washington include in his message to congress 1833 a recommendation for the establishment of a military academy. The act creating the academy did not pass until the year 1862, and then only a means of giving countenance to the deep rooted prejudice of the rural legislators against an institution which they believed would become a nursery aristocrat, and it was, therefore, not until 1812 that the Military academy became a part of the army establishment.—Frank H. Taylor in Four Track News. Finding by intuition. A man asked the clerk of a big hotel Fifth avenue if a person whom he named was staying in the house. The clerk said he was, but he was not in at that moment. "I had never seen the person for whom I had inquired," said the man who tells this story. "I had never had a description of him. I had formed no idea as to what manner of man he is, as we often do in such cases. I took a seat in the corridor, intending to ask the clerk again later on. I read newspaper for a half hour and started to the clerk's desk to repeat my inquiry when I bumped into an individual by accident. We both apologized. In a second I said to him, 'Are you not Mr. —?' I don't know what immedited me to make the inquiry, but as quickly as I had asked him as quickly did he reply that he was Mr. —, the very person whom I wished to see. I suppose Conan Doyle might explain it, but hanged if I can."—New York Commercial Advertiser. Writing a "Book." A woman use, said the youth, "to write a great book. How shall I go about it?" "Don't, I beg of you!" said the novelist. "Write one that pays, as I do, or else—study law." "I do not care to write a book for the sake of the pay," said the youth. He was very young and must be forgiven for this. "Perhaps, after all, I had better be a lawyer." So he became a lawyer, but the old ambition to write a great book came over him again. "Anything but that," said a friend so whom he told his wish. "If you don't like the law, be a doctor." So he studied medicine. In time, however, this palled upon him. He still thought of that book. He felt that he had a mission. "You could do so much more in the pulpit," said another. So he preached until the hollowness of it came over him. And he left the pulpit. One day he woke up and found that the great book was written. He laughed at the thought. Many a hard working young woman spends her noon hour in an endeavor to get a little rest to carry her through the remaining hours of the day. She is weak and weary, but she cannot give up the occupation which supports her. She must go back to the office and the typewriter, to the store and its duties, with tiresome customers to wait on and exacting employers to please. For people who are weak and run down there is no medicine so valuable as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. Many diseases in organs remote from the stomach have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and its allied organs. When the stomach is "weak" there is a failure to properly digest and assimilate the food which is caten. Hence the whole body, and each organ of it, suffers from lack of nutrition, so that as a consequence of "weak" stomach, there may be "weak" lungs, "weak heart," "weak" or torpid liver, "weak" nerves, etc. By curing diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, "Golden Medical Discovery" enables the assimilation of the nutriment necessary for the requirements of a healthy body. It increases the activity of the blood-making glands, and so increases the supply of blood which is the vital fluid of the body. There is no alcohol in the "Discovery" and it is entirely free from opium, cocaine, and all other narcotics. Sick and ailing people especially those suffering from disease in its chronic form are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter free. All correspondence is held as strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y. There is no similar offer of free medical advice which has behind it an institute of national note such as the Invalid's Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N.Y., presided over by Dr. Pierce, its chief consulting physician, with the assistance of nearly a score of skilled specialists. "The Wonderful Medicoine." "I must again send a few lines to you let you know how I am getting along since taking the wonderful medicine which cured me two years ago," writes Miss Bertha Ebber, of 1416 Benton Street, St. Louis, Mo. "I still continue in very good health and think there is not a better medication on earth than our Golden Medical Discovery." We would not be able to tell it in the house, and also the little Pellets. "I have recommended Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to many friends, and they all think it will do just what is claimed for it. It is best thing for me to take care of any weakness or dullness that any body could want. I was very nervous and weak last summer. I took five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and it just made me feel like a new person. It gives a person new life and new blood. I can now work all day long without feeling the least bit tired. In fact I feel like a nurse." My mother was also eased by it of a very bad state of stomach trouble about three years ago. I thank you a thousand times for what you have done for me and for your kind advice. Wasted to a Skoloton. About six years ago my health failed; writes Miss Aletha R. Pike of Capitol Harford County, Maryland; kept down lower and lower, until I could scarce walk across the foot without struggling and gasping for breath. To use the log four persons are required—two men to hold the reel on which the line is wound, the quartermaster to hold the glass and the midshipman of the watch to heave the log. The last named puts the peg firmly in the logship and then gathers three or four coils of line in his hand, sufficient to admit of the logship being thrown well clear of the ship. He asks, "Clear glass, quartermaster?" "Clear glass, sir," comes the reply, and overboard go the logship and line, the reel rapidly revolving. Presently the mildy feels the piece of bunting passing through his hand, and he gives the order, "Turn." The quartermaster turns the glass and watches the sand, while one "reeler" holds well over his head; so as to give the line fair play. When the sand has run out, "Stop!" cries the quartermaster. The midshipman grasps the line, assisted by the other "reeler," and looks for the nearest knot, finding a single one close to his hand. Then the line is hauled in, and four knots appear, which signify that the ship is going four and one-half knots through the water. The jerk of the line drags the peg from the logship, which now floats on its flat side and is easily hauled in. When a ship is going over four knots, a fourteen second glass is used, the speed being double that shown by the knots on the line.-Home Journal and News. A Hearty Eater. There is a story in the French army of a captain who made a wager one day that a drummer of his company could eat a whole calf. The drummer proud of his distinction, promised to do honor to the captain's compliment. Accordingly, a calf was prepared in various appetizing ways and was being promptly disposed of by the drummer. When he had finally consumed about three-quarters of the repast, he paused for another draft of wine and placing his knife and fork on his plate, sald to his superior officer, "You had better have the calf brought on, had you not for all these little kickshaws will end in taking-up room." Neighborly Neglect. "Every one knows the dislike of the country person to interfere with his neighbors," says the London Globe. "A good instance occurred in the midlands. Farmer Jarvis, driving to market, saw through the open door of a barn on body of a neighbor suspended from a beam and drove on, revolvingthe tragedy. When he reached market town, he imparted news with deliberate emphasis.' Good heavens' exclaimed the other.' And did you cut him down? 'No,' said the farmer, more slowly still; 'he wasn't dead yet.' Trees In Japan Sacred to The Gods. Near every temple in Japan are certain trees that are supposed to be peculiarly loved by the gods and to be sacred to them. Any one injuring or causing to be injured one of them will bring down the wrath of the kamal or god whose particular property it is. If the trees be injured in the name of any one the kamal avenges himself on that person instead.

Lee was sitting on the veranda of his Lexington home one afternoon engaged in conversation with some friends when a man, ill clothed and covered with dust, appeared at the gate and timidly beckoned to the general. Apologizing to his friends, Lee rose at once and went to the gate. Very soon his purse appeared, and he was seen to give the man some money. His friends, knowing the extent of his charity in any case of suffering, real or apparent, looked on with some impatience, for they knew how slender his means were then and how many calls of the same kind came to him. General, who was that?" one of them ventured when he had returned to his place. "One of our boys in trouble," was the half smiling answer, for the general knew the remonstrance which his friend was longing to make. "What regiment and company did he belong to?" persisted the friend, anxious, if possible, to unearth the suspected fraud. "Oh, he—he,fought on the other side," was General Lee's calm answer. Youth's Companion. A FEW HOGS. A hog is a person who sits sideways in a car where other passengers are standing. A hog is a person who jams his suit case in front of you at the railway station so as to get your place in the line to the gate. A hog is a person who "breaks in" while you are negotiating in a store and takes the attention of the salesman or saleswoman away from you. A hog is a person who opens his window in the railway car and allows dust and clinders to fly in the face of the passengers behind, though he would not tolerate an open window at the seat next in front. A hog is a person who insists on discussing "the mutability of human affairs" with the ticket soller at the theater when there is a long "Indian file" in his rear and the curtain is about to be rung up on the performance.—Cincinnati Commercial. Trees In Japan Sacred to the Gods. Near every temple in Japan are certain trees that are supposed to be peculiarly loved by the gods and to be sacred to them. Any one injuring or causing to be injured one of them will bring down the wrath of the kami or god whose particular property it is. If the trees be injured in the name of any one the kami avenges himself on that person instead. So when a girl finds that a swain's love has cooled and she thinks revenge would be sweet she makes a straw mankin and calls it by his name. If she is very vengeful she may also make one of her hated rival. At 2 o'clock at night (called the hour of the bull) she rises, and, clad in a white nightdress only, with high clogs on her feet, her hair hanging loose and crowned with an iron tripod, on which three lighted candles are stuck, she proceeds to the shrine of the patron god of the family.

One of His Prescriptions. THAT Love sometimes cures disease is a fact that has recently been called to the attention of the public by a prominent physician and college professor. In some nervous diseases of women, such as hysteria, this physician gives instances where women were put in a pleasant frame of mind, were made happy by falling in love, and in consequence were cured of their nervous troubles—the weak, nervous system toned and stimulated by little Dr. Cupid—became strong and vigorous, almost without their knowledge. Love is not, however, the cure for all women. Many a woman is nervous and irritable, feels dragged down and worn out for no reason that she can think of. She may be ever so much in love, but Dr. Cupid fails to cure her. In such cases the body is not sound—the nervousness and other symptoms are telegraphed all over the body black circles about the eyes, are only symptoms. Go to the source of the trouble and correct the irregularities, the drains on the womanly system and the other symptoms disappear. This can be done easily and intelligently. So sure of it is the World's Dispensary Medical Association, proprietors of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, that they offer A $500 REWARD For women who cannot be cured of leucorrhea, female weakness, prolapse or falling of womb. All they ask is a fair and reasonable trial of their means of cure. Their financial responsibility is well known to every newspaper publisher and druggist in the United States, with most of whom they have done business for over a third of a century. From this fact it will readily be seen how utterly foolish it would be for them to make the above unprecedented and remarkable offer if they were not basing their offer on curative means having an unparalleled record. No other medicine than to the credit of any preparation especially designed for the cure of woman's peculiar ailments. This wonderful remedy, therefore, stands absolutely alone as the only one possessed of such remarkable curetive properties as would warrant its makers in publishing such a marvelous offers as is above made in the utmost good faith. $3,000 FORFEIT Will also be paid if they cannot show the original signatures of the individuals volunteering the testimonials below, and also of the writers of every testimonial among the thousands which they are constantly publishing, thus proving their genuineness. "I was to tell you of the great improvement in my health since taking your 'Favorite Prescription,'" says Mrs. H.S. Jones, of Forest, N.C. "When I began its use I was a physical wreck and had despaired of ever having my health again. Could not sit up all day. I noted a great improvement before the first bottle was used. Was suffering with almost every pain that a woman is subject to; had inflammation of ovaries painful and suppressed periods, and other symptoms of female disease. After taking six bottles of 'Favorite Prescription,' I felt like a new person. Can ride horseback and take all kinds of exercise and not feel tired." Mrs. Affie Walls, of Chelsea, Mich., says: "It is with pleasure I write to you of the benefits I have received from Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. For about two years I felt completely tired out; was thin in flesh, skin yellow, had no ambition. Some eight months ago I took a severe pain in my back. Had read so much about your 'Favorite Prescription' thought I would try it. I purchased one bottle and it helped me so much I have now taken over three bottles. My heart don't bother me and I feel well all the time. Your 'Prescription' is the best medicine ever tried. I wish I could get all sick and weak persons to try it." Mrs. Martha D. Bruce, of Rochester, Wash., writes: "I will enclose the amount of stamps in payment for your valuable book the 'Medical Adviser.' I prize it above books; I would not be without one. I also prize your medicines very highly for the good I have received. I am sure the 'Favorite Prescription' carried me through a critical period when I do not think a doctor could have saved me. I have recommended it to other sufferers far and near. I am so glad for such blessings as your medicines, and hope you may live long and enjoy the blessings of your labors and the sunshine of God's love." "If my testimony is any good to you, you are welcome to use it." A Great Sensation. There was a big sensation in Leesville, Ind., when W. H. Brown of that place, who was expected to die, had his life saved by Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. He writes: "I endured insufferable agonies from Asthma, but your New Discovery gave me immediate relief and soon thereafter effected a complete cure." Similar cures of Consumption, Pneumonia, Bronchitis and Grip are numerous. It's the peerless remedy for all throat and lung troubles. Guaranteed by W. B. Hutchinson, Druggist Trial bottles free. KEYS OF THE BASTILLE. These Historic Beliefs of Old Paris Owned by an American. The keys which locked the great gates of the Bastille at the time of its fall have been in America for a number of years. For nearly a century they remained in the possession of the family of the Frenchman who took them from the famous prison, though they have recently come into the possession of an Englishman living in Quebec. When the mob stormed the prison on July 14, 1789, a Parisian Carrier Lechastel, is said to have been the first to rush over the drawbridge as it fell. It was he, at any rate, who overtook a fleeing jailer and took the keys from him. The mob immediately stuck the keys on the end of a spike, and an immense throng paraded with them through the streets. They were considered one of the most valuable trophies of the revolution. Lechastel kept the keys, and they remained in his family until 1859, when a descendant of the family emigrated to America, taiding them with him. Eventually the keys were sold to John Hamilton of St. Louis, who kept them for twenty-five years, exhibiting them from time to time, when they were sold to a Canadian. One of the keys was obtained in France by General Lafayette and was presented by him to George Washington a year or two before his death. It hangs in the mansion at Mount Vernon and has been seen by thousands of visitors there. The keys at present are very old and rusty. The largest of them is twelve inches long and is quite heavy. The financial responsibility is well known to every newspaper publisher and druggist in the United States, with most of them have done business for over a third of a century. From this fact it will readily be seen how utterly foolish it would be for them to make the above unprecedented and remarkable offer if they were not basing their offer on curative means having an unparalleled record. No other medicine than Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription could possibly "win out" as the saying goes, on such a proposition. But they know whereof they speak. They have the most remarkable record of cures made by this world-famed remedy ever placed. GREAT MEDICAL WORK, FREE.
