What's a Miracle
to some people la really only the result of the
use of knowledge and common-sense. Many
persons suffering from
RHEUMATISM and NEURALGIA
-nesltate about taking a remedy, fearing It
will not help them, and they doubt whether
It really did do as much lor others as Is claimed.
This is not the way Mr. O. E. Bruner of
Urbana, Ohio, did. He writes :
" athlophobob is the best I ever tried. I
was down in bed bo bad that I bad to be turned
on a eheet, and so I got a bottle of Athlopho
bos and befran taking it at 9 o'clock, and I was
suffering everything a man could suffer. I
took four doses of it, and I got out of bed my
self and ate my Bupper. and the next morning;
I walked out to breakfast without canes.
IT IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN COLO."
Is not a miraculous thintr, but it is the only
sure cure for Rlirunintism and neuralgia,
and It will cure
nst as easily and certainly, as it has thousands
of others.
If you cannot get Athlophoros of your drug
gist, we will send it express paid, on receipt of
regular price one dollar per bottle. We prefer
that you buy it from your druggist, but if he
hasn't it; do not bo persuaded to try something
else, but order at once from us, as directed.

BIENNIAL SESSIONS.
Next Monday the voters of this State will
decide the biennial sessions matter. As our
readers know, we have advocated the propos
ed change for a good many 3'ears. We hope
now to see it made. The reasons why the
proposed amendment should be adopted are
unanswerable.
Of the thirty-eight States of the Union all
bnt six have biennial sessions. These six
are: Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jer
sey, New York, Rhode Island and South
Carolina. All the other thirty-two have
biennial sessions.. Many of them, have had,
long experience with the biennial idea, and
are amply satisfied with its practical working.
No State that has tried the biennial plan has
shown any disposition to roturn to the old
way. The States which hold annual sessions
of their general assemblies contain 9,891,880
people, who ore not, it is believed, any bet
ter governed than those of the otaer States.
The States holding sessions of their legisla
tures once in two years contain 39,479,460
inhabitants, who are not suffering from too
little legislation.
Annual sessions cost too much. The
comptroller's office reports that the cost of
the session of 1883 was, including the print
ing of documents, bills, resolutions, etc.,
$140,310.33. This year the figures are not
all in, but the expense will be nearly the
same. There are less than 125,000 families
in the State; therefore each head of a family
is compelled to pay something over a dollar
a year in taxes for the luxury of an annual
legislative session. There is also a large ex
tra expense every session, in lighting, heat
ing and caring for the eapitol; there is more
expense in the preparation and publication
of the scores of reports from different State
institutions which have to be made for each
session; there is a greater tendency to lavish
ness In appropriations than there would be
with less frequent sessions; and lost, bnt not
least, there is the expense of the election it
self, to which every town in the State must
contribute in greater or less sums.
With annual sessions there is altogether
too much legislation, and much of it is pret
ty poor, one reason for this being the idea
that if it does not tarn out well it can be
fixed "next year." Biennial sessions would
lessen legislation, help the permanency of
the law and give the people and the lawyers
an opportunity to know what the laws were
before they were repealed or modified.
The principal objection to the proposed
change comes from Hartford. A great many
of the 'inhabitants of that thriving town
profit by the annual assembling of the legis
lators, and they naturally do not want the
pleasant and profitable sustom broken up.
But we know of no reason why tho voters of
the whole State should yote against tiennial
sessions in order to make Hartford happy.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
Our consul general at Berlin reports to the
State department that the wages of German
workmen have advanced measurably under
the revised and protective tariff. He also
says that fewer persons are without employ
ment than before, while the discontent which
filled the country with menaces under the
blessings of free trade is disappearing. On
every hand the situation in Germany is im
proving.
The departure of a new shipload of colored
emigrants from New York for Liberia again
calls attention to that colony. Mr. Cop
pinger, the consul general of Liberia at
Washington and secretary of the African
Colonization society, states that the society
has thousands of applications from people
who wish to be taken to Monrovia, and that,
if it had means to supply passage, half a mil
lion of colored people would leave the United
States at once. But accounts recently re
ceived of the condition of affairs "in Liberia
indicate that it is just as well that the half a
million cannot go.
Some years ago travelers in Dolmatia no
ticed large tracts of land covered by a wild
flower, near which not a sign of insect life
was visible. The bloom was the pyre thrum,
whose odor deals death to the lower forms of
life, and whose powdered leaves form the
basis of "insect powders." The seed of this
flower was distributed in the United States,
and a Dalmatian haseen growing it with
great success in Stockton, Cal. Prof. Snow
recently read an article on the subject before
the KVww State Board of Agriculture, and
it seems likely from the report that an indus
try of importance will arise from the Dalma
tian's experiment.
More than, forty years ago Horace Greeley,
one of the founders of the Republican party,
wrote these strong words: Enlightened pro
tection is emphatically the hope and stay of
the toiling millions over the whole face of
the world. Wherever a hammer is ; lifted,
a plow held, a shuttle thrown, over the
globe, there is one whose direct interest it is
that labor should be efficiently protected not
merely in his own bnt all countries, and that
the excesive and fatal competition of capital
with capital, sinew with anew, ' privation
with privation, to excel in . cheapness of pro
duction that is, cheapness in money should
be checked and bounded. Let labor there
fore with one mighty voice demand adequate,
stable protection, and a wider, deeper pros
perity will soon irradiate the land, carrying
independence, comfort and joy to the dwel
ling alike of the fanner and artisan in every
section of the country.
When M. Renan recently visited his birth
place in Brittany he was desirous of sleep
ing in the very house in which he was born.
He found it occupied by several families, all
devoted children of the Church, who were
horror-stricken at thought of harboring the
great infidel. But at last one man, more
tolerant than the others, relented, and al
lowed the Academician to occupy his room
ior a single mgnt. f or this aet he was so
bitterly assailed by his neighbors that he was
compelled to publish a justification of his
course. In that document he ingeniously
argued that although he had indeed lent the
room to M. Renan, yet he had on a previous
occasion lent it to a distinguished defender
of orthodoxy, whose good influence, he
trusted, might haunt the slumbers of the in
fidel. Moreover, was it not worth trying
whether the revival of youthful memories by
old-time surroundings might not reawaken
also in the heretic his early faith? And so the
pious indignation of the good people of Tre
guier was mollified, and the teacup tempest
throbbed no more.
A cose of interest to that rapidly growine;
class the bicyclers was adjudicated, the other
day in Washington. Charles McKnabb, em
ployed in the bureau of engraving and print
ing, got through work on a Friday afternoon
and started for home on his wheel. He was
riding up Fifteenth street at a moderate rate
of speed, ringing his bell, when at a street
crossing he suddenly found himself in the
thick of a crowd and tho machine struck a
Professor Cammack in the leg. He dis
mounted at once and helped carry the pro
fessor, who had fainted, into a drug store.
The fainting was caused by nervous shock,
the only bodily damage sustained by the pro
fessor being bruises on the ankle. The judge
held that, while the running into the profes
sor was clearly an accident, McKnabb had
been guilty of negligence. "A bicycle," he
said, "is an unmanageable vehicle, especially
in a crowd. It cannot be navigated like a
horse, and nobody would think of it until it
was upon them. The proper thing would
have been to get off the vehicle and wait
until the crowd had passed." Accordingly
his honor imposed a fine of one dollar upon
McKnabb, by way of admonition and warn
ing to the other wheelmen of Washington.
Captain W. L. Ellsworth, the presidential
candidate of the American Political Alliance,
presents the curious anomaly of a candi
date who is not in the directory. He once
had lodgings over a store on Arch street,
Philadelphia, but his letters never came
there, and few ever knew his name. But in
order to gratify public curiosity Captain
Ellsworth has prepared a biography of him
self, to be used for campaiirn purposes. In
this he describes his origin and rise to dis
tinct oil. He is a native of Connecticut, born
November 15, 1837. He early became inter
ested in steamboat enterprises on the Missis
sippi. He was, under Pierce, Consul at Cy- i
prus, Turkey. He went into the war as cap
tain in a New York regiment. He was nomi
nated for Congress in the third New York
district in 1862, but withdrew before elec
tion. Captain Ellsworth is a civil engineer
and inventor. In politics he has been in
sympathy with the stalwart wing of the Re
publican party. As described by the officials
at thehiladelphia postoflSce, Captain Ells
worth is a quick, odd-looking man, with a
restless look, who rushes in and out frequent
ly to look at his box, and wears a long linen
ulster and is always chewing on the end of a
cigar.

Dartmouth students have organized a po

bt or the Emperor An Interesting
Deleoratlon "Lot' or Fan Ameri

, Off for Llnx-Vp the Beautiful JHad-
dr Danube Llnz-To Salzburg.
Salzburg, Austria, Sept. 1
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
The eighteenth day of August was the fifty-fourth
birthday of His Majesty Franz-
Joseph I, Emperor of Austria, King of Hun
gary, Bohemia, etc. In view of this fact I
modified my plans and remained in Vienna
longer than I had originally intended, think
ing thus to add to my 'round the world ex
perience a royal pageant ic Austria. I wai
disappointed in my expectations, but per
haps some of the other things which I did
see are worthy of mention.
The first exercise of the day was a military
review held in Schmeltplatz at five o'clock in
the morning. I do not think I am sacrificing
my reputation as an indefatigable tourist
when I say that I did not get out to witness
that demonstration. Had the Emperor been
there I should certainly have been on hand.
But he was off at Iselil or Bruek on the
Leitha, or some other place in the empire,
dodging about hither and thither without
giving any notice of his intentions in advance
a proceeding which I feel justified in con
struing as a personal affront. His Majesty is
an early riser, and it is said that very fre
quently when he is here he conducts the re
views at five o clock a. m. The Crown
Prince Rudolph was at Bruek, where he was
the recipient of quite an ovation at the hands
of some of the local societies. He v
obliged to appear on the balcony of his lodg
ing-place in answer to the applause, and
thereupon committed himself to the follow
ing rash speech: I thank you very many
times. The vereins have done themselves
proud. I thank you again it's all so very
nice." I am not on intimate tevms with the
Crown Prince, and perhaps there is better
material than this in him waiting for some
supreme exigency to develop it; It may at
least be said that the speech was an exhaus
tive one as regards the speaker if not the
subject under consideration. Yet you can
not shake the implicit confidence of these
people in the inspiration of their royalty.
At eleven o'clock I swarmed over to St.
Stephen's, where there was to be a high mass
in honor or the anniversary. Several battal
ions of infantry were drawn up about the
three entrances, and extended in double rows
down the cathedral. The customary sights
were to De witnessed about the great church.
gorgeously-robed priests going through their
endless religious gymnastics, scores of peo
ple bowing and mumbling before images un
til the candle at their side which they had
purchased should burn out, small boys
swinging censers, novices arranging the pul
pit furniture, etc. There were also signs
that some event out of the usual routine was
at hand. The pews were covered with red
cloths; a thousand candles and gas jets were
burning, despite the fact that it was broad
daylight. The full cathedral chime was
sending abroad its call to prayer. The vari
ous ministers of State, military officers and
municipal dignitaries were alighting from
their splendid carriages and marching up to
the chancel, arrayed in all the panoply of
their respective offices, borne wore high hats
with great white plumes. Others had black
plumes, still others green. Many were at
tired according to the English fashions of
the Elizabethan age, with knee breeches, im
maculate stockings and powdered hair. Some
had boots that reached up almost to their
arm-pits. Some had dress Coats loaded with
gilt braid. One functionary, equipped with
a fur-trimmed silk cloak, would have made
an excellent Richard III if he had only re
moved eight or ten of the excessive badges
which decorated him and adopted a halting
gait. The services were of the characteristic
Catholic order. The great organ was not
used, but another of respectable tone and
power nearer the chancel did service, assisted
by a full orchestra, which was provided with
a gallery fitted up, for all the world, just '
like an orchestra-place in a theatre. A choir
of small boys made first-class music, and an
army of magnificently dressed priests and
novices furnished the oratory and chanting.
The chief exercise of the day was a Kai
serfest in the Prater. This Kaiserfest used
to be a great celebration, but latterly it has
been ruined by rain two or three times, so
that the popular enthusiasm over it has mod
erated. This year the fest was planned and
carried out on a rather moderate scale by the
proprietors of restaurants and places of
amusement in the Prater. Each man chipped
in a few florins to advertise the affair and
pay for decorations. The Prater is a public
.park of over four thousand acres, formerly a
royal hunting lodge, which is shaped like a
fan, with three avenues radiating from the
place where the handle should be to serve as
fan-ribs. It was in this great enclosure that
the Universal exhibition of 1873 took place,
and the Rotunda is still standing. The right
hand section of this fan-park is reserved for
the wealthy and those whose tastes are some
what elevated. The lower parts of the other
two sections are fitted up with reference to
the less educated tastes of the great mass of
Austrian humanity.
To the Prater I wended my way at three
o'clock, the hour announced for the begin
ning of the Fest. The main avenues, lined
with qnadruple rows of noble chestnuts,
were gay with thousands of Chinese lanterns,
which were to be lit in the evening. A great
multitude of people, filling all the spacious
walks, and even the streets also, flocked to
ward the numerous attractions of the Prater.
Here were panoramas, little theaters, aquari
ums, circuses, wax figure exhibits and vari
ous side shows of greater or less importance.
The prices of admission were suspiciously
low, usually ten kreuzers X&ye cents), and
frequently only half that sum. There were
gigantic swings that would fairly take your
breath away when you looked at the other
people manipulating them. There were huge
teeters adapted to tickle the fancy of the
youngsters. A species of windmill worked
by hand, with cars attached to the paddles,
which would retain an upright position all
the time, was very popular. So also was a
circle of balloons, into whieh you climbed
by stairs in order to enjoy the elevated mo
tion. Devices for making you as dizzy as
possible, especially by means of a motion
that was more properly celestial than terres
trial, seemed to be the great desideratum.
The merry-go-rounds were a great feature.
Thero were a score of different kinds, inclu
ding ordinary horses and carriages, swans,
sleighs, street-ears, fully equipped railroad
trains with outside projecting wheels which
actually did run on a stationary rail, and
steamboats. The steamboats were so bal
anced on a pivot as to produce in addition to
the circular motion a rocking motion akin to
that experienced by a real ship at sea; so that
the rider enjoyed the exhilarating sensation
of seasickness on land if they stayed in long
enough. I noticed, some of these steamers
bearing such goodly names as Philadelphia,
New York and America. Everybody seemed
bewitched to ride in these merry-go-rounds,
even adults. I saw plenty of women sitting
astride of mock roosters or swans, enjoying
an artificial canter; while many a young rus
tic and his best girl beamed at each other in
supreme joy, as they mutually held on to
their seats in a tempest-tossed ship, his arm
having unconsciously passed in the general
vicinity of her waist while searching for
something to grip. Though there were scores
of these merry-go-rounds, all more or less
elaborate, there actually did not seem to be
enough to meet the demand.
The crowd surged hither and thither; now
stopping to survey a specially artistic display
of decorations; now stopping to gaze at some
harlequin who sought to inveigle them into
his little show. Many were eager to test
their lifting abilities on the machines provi
ded for that purpose, while more sought to
display their skill in the shooting galleries.
These galleries were only second to the merry-go-rounds
in popular favor. The targets
were a forest of images constructed automat
ically, so that a successful shot set certain
machinery in operation. You could help a
dog to catch a rabbit, a man to beat a drum,
a dentist to pull a tooth, a boy to play nine
pins, a soldier to blow a horn, or a bell-ringer
to tinkle a miniature cathedral chime. In
fact, at One of the galleries you could set a
whole automatic battle into operation if you
were skillful enough. The. array of targets
was always made enticingly novel and attrac
tive. , If anyone ever said that they water the
streets with beer in Vienna, I think it was
the utterance of a wicked canard. Never
theless, from what I have seen I think I am
justified in saying that it is not against the
law here to take a glass of lager occasionally.
I really wonder how much there was con
sumed at this Fest. Groups were scattered
here and there, alternately sipping the foam
ing beakers before them and nibbling at
hunks of cheese. The cheese which was
most popular needs no encomium, since it
seemed to be old and strong enough to speak
for itself. The very poorest people ate their
lunch on the grass.
Every place of amusement that made any
pretensions was provided with a hand organ
of unparalleled noise-producing capacity.
The blare of these instruments, often in dis
cordant union, was simply deafening. There
were several Punch and Judy shows in pan
tomime merely. One of these was supplied
with a remarkable wealth of scenery, cos
tumes, effigies and appointments for various
unusual acts. In one place was a real rail
way in the shape of a circle not over one
hundred yards in diameter, which was
worked on a simple plan. The train started
from an elevation of five or six feet, attained
a rapid speed which carried it around the
circle and back to the point of elevation,
where men would be at the foot waiting to
push it up to the top. Doubtless many peo
ple availed themselves of this diversion who
regard railway riding as a bore. Among the
decorations appeared the likenesses of the
emperor and empress everywhere, with in
scriptions setting forth that His Majesty
came to the throne in 1848, was born in 1830,
and was a first-class sort of a monarch. The
pictures of the empress were not at all flat
tering to her. The usual collection of se
ductive lotteries solicited the spare pennies
of the downright fools who were present
anxious to be gulled.
In addition to the variety of things always
pn sale in the Prater, there were cheap nickel
plated medallions intended as souvenirs of
this particular occasion, and glass reliefs of
the imperial heads. Other sales were being
effected of such a character as always excite
American contempt. Boys were hawking
programmes around the premises at a few
kreuzers each coarse, ugly handbills, such
as we would be ashamed to give away in our
third-rate cities. People were also gathered
about the fountains buying drinks of water.
Yes, it is true that some people do drink wa
ter in Vienna. And it is a matter of surprise
to me that such matchless water does not
drive the lager out of the market. The wa
ter is free, but never a drinking vessel is pro
vided. Accordingly the individuals who
want to profit by the investment of the
smallest possible amount of capital procuie
a few cups and take up their positions by the
fountains. This is characteristically Euro
pean. Everything is under lock and key.
To be sure the prices asked are very small,
but that is only an aggravating feature to an
American. The great factor in bringing
about this difference between Europe and
America appears to me to be the superior
enterprise of the new world. Competition
crushes out such paltry, petty practices
among us. In "effete Europe" the atmos
phere is pervaded with a conservative, ul-
tra-cantious spirit which keeps each coun
try where it has been for centuries. This
applies not only to the great streams of
second and third-class effort, but even to
the largest so-called European ventures. If
some great enterprise is projected here it
seems to be regarded as a matter of neces
sity that it shall receive a sop from the
government. So it happens that even when
you attend a naiserrest in Vienna you
must buy your own programmes ana arcnK-
ing water. Uah! Give us tne Dngnt en
terprise and restless, venturesome energy
that prevail west of the Atlantic, whatever
the dangers that attend them.
In the evening the Prater was illumina
ted and the Fest really began. Ihe pro
gramme stated that tnirty inousonu gas
flames were used in this illumination. I
did not count them to see, but will swear
that there were a good many. There were
also a good many illuminated stars and
other designs, for which tumblers of grease
were used. There was lager and dancing,
and lager and promenading, and singing
and occasionally lager. After a grand Fest
concert (it said it was grand on the pro
gramme) the various brass bands I think
there were thirty rormea in line, every
body bought a Chinese lantern, and a gen
eral illuminated procession was formed,
which continued to parade the Prater for
some time. The programme also said that
there would be a balloon ascension, but I
could not find it. I fear the programme
lied. I have an idea that the Ananiases
who got up the Fest resorted to this adver
tisement as a playful ruse with which to
attract a crowd.
The following morning found me aboard
little steamer in the Danube canal at
half-past six o'clock bound for Linz. The
regular Danube steamers cannot enter this
canal, so the company provides a
small steamer to ply from the landing
to the larger steamer in the river proper.
In one hour we were put on board the steam
er "Crown Prince Kudolph, a good respect
able side-wheel steamer, bound up the Dan
ube. Up the Danube is a very different
thing from down the Danube. So swift is
the current that ifr takes the same boat over
twice as long to ascend as it does to descend,
and even when the steamer stops at a land
ing en route she often has to keep her wheels
paddling the water vigorously. My taste or
Danube scenery Detween Turn bevenn and
Orsova, along the Roumanian-Hungarian
frontier, (a link seldom seen by trave'iei-s,bnt
one of the prettiest in the whole course of the
river) had made me hungry for more. Not
withstanding that the trip would consume
over seventeen hours, I therefore chose it.
For a tew hours there was not much to re
ward my pains. The Danube seems to be
muddy from Passan clear to Galatz unutter
ably muddy most of the way. The poet who
sings of the blue Danube is a prevaricating
skulker. He dare not show his face in
Europe. The lack of maritime industry is
also a little discouraging to the tourist at
first,there being only two or three steamers
met in the course of a day's ride. The river,
though preceptibly narrower than when I had
left it at Buda Pest, was still dotted with
low fiat islands, covered with a rank growth
of shrubbery. We paused at several land
ings and passed under one large railroad
bridge by means of lowering the funnel, arriv
ing at the considerable town of Stein (with
Krems adjoining) a little after noon. The
scenery now began to improve, and during
the rest or the day was a'j tnat x eouia ssk.
The hills crowded the river more closely and
grew more precipitous, until we found our
selves in the midst of a narrow gorge; now
chisseled out of the rock in nature's most
savage mood, and now brilliantly green with
soft thick grass or dense young trees. On
the right we passed Durnstein,where Richatd
Coeur de Lion was kept a prisoner for fifteen
months m 1 lua-ua oy xrake leopoia v i, and
where the faithful Blondel is reputed to have
discovered his lost master. It was a picturesque-looking
place, with old fortification
walls running up tho steep rocky hill. A
church stood on a rock close by the water's
edge, and as our steamer glided along some
fifteen feet -away, the deep toned abbey oeii
pealed solemnly forth. The sound was start
lingly distinct as if directly over our
heads.
We now passed frequent ruius, castles,
monasteries, and sleepy villages, nestling at
the very edge of tho water. The abbeys
were enormous in size and usually palatial
in appointments, being frequently at the
summit of lofty picturesque hills. I could
but wonder what these great institutions are
for. It is said that they are supplied with
valuable collections of minerals and antiqui
ties, historical manuscripts, grand pipe or
gans, and libraries of from 30,000 to 100,000
volumes. But that does not answer the
question. Of what utility are these large
establishments? The might of Popery in this
country is attested by the crucifixes, with
life size statues of Christ clinging thereto,
that line the roads, mark the bridges and
cover the hilltops. Even the royal palace in
Vienna contains its pictures of the Pope.
The rapid current of the river was utilized
frequently on either side by means of huge
wheels extended from the shore to a moored
floater near the shore. Bands passed around
the axle, and were then made to operate the
machinery in adjacent mills.
The boat stopped every three or four miles
to let off or take on passengers. At each
such station about two' beer kegs for every
inhabitant in the town were let off or taken
on. There's no denying it, the people do
moisten their gastronomical apparatus with
lager occasionally. Even on board the
steamer the restaurant system prevailed.
As in the case of the hotels, I found that the
terms did not include board and bed! But
as the prices were extremely low, in view of
railway competition.I hod not the heart to
find fault. One gets hardened to the ' Board
and lodging extra" accommodations m
Europe.
About dusk I was startled by the succes
sive reports of two cannon, one on the port
side of the ship and the other to starboard.
On investigation, I found that we were near
ing the "Greiner Schwall," (surging waters)
and this was the customary signal for r the
right of way up stream. I noticed a signal
tower on the north bank, and presume the
navigation is conducted by telegraph here.
For a distance of nearly a thousand feet' the
channel was only thirty to fifty feet wide,
while the waters rushednd surged tumul
tously. The ascent of these rapids was
most hazardous until 1853, when the rocks
were blasted away. Great bolders still pro
ject in a menacing manner from the banks,
and not a few former strongholds of robbers
are pointed out among the caves and ruins.
The navigation of such a swift crooked river
is to my mind perilous enough after dark
without any rocks added to complicate math
ters. It was intensely dark, and save for the
twinkling of an occasional light on the
banks, I could not define any landmarks
whatever. I suppose the steering is a simple
matter to the keen-eyed, practiced pilot, but
I feel safer when on the high seas.
I was heartily glad when at one o'clock in
the morning the whirlpools and rocks were
safely passed, and we had moored alongside
of a dock in the young city of Linz: But
here a problem scarcely less grave presented
itself for solution. There was not a carriage
anywhere to be had at that late hour, and
the depot was over half a mile distant.
There were half a dozen other people in the
same fix, and after an. hour's waiting ' we
finally patched up a solution of tho -difficulty.
An attache of the docks was found,
who would pilot us to tho depot, wheeling
our baggage in a handcart. So we formed
a midnight procession and followed in his
walks. Linz is the capital of Upper Austria.
It boasts a population of 45,000 people and
a few rather imposing buildings. We had
occasion to admire the ample il lumination by
gas, an especially friendly feature as we
trudged along through the streets. It was
indeed a wretched night, and I was most
thankful when the train for Salsburg rolled
into the depot at 4:16 a. m.
The ride from Linz here was almost a per
fect antidote for the weariness of the night.
The country was gloriously beautiful. I
needed no maps to tell me tiin I was ap
proaching Switzerland. The hills that took
such diverse fantastic forms, as I surveyed
them from different standpoints, according
to the windings of the road, were doubly
emerald by reason of a pouring rain. Gleam
ing lakelets, castle ruins, foaming mountain
torrents and romantic gorges lent their
united charm to the picture. Salsburg it
self is almost as beautifully situated as Nikko
in Japan; and more I cannot say. I do not
wonder that the melodies of nature here
should have given inspiration to a Mozart.
One might spend a whole summer here with
profit, and not begin to exhaust the myriads
of excursions which are possible to the neigh
boring lakes and mountain passes. Tourists
are just beginning to find this out, and there
are quite a number of Americans here
now. Emile.

The following from Rev. Dr. E. F.
Crane of Dunkirk, N. Y., is very sat
isfactory evidence of the value of this
medicine. Look it over.
"I have never seen a medicine more perfectly
adapted to its various applications than Thomas1
Eclectric Oil. I was for many years a sufferer
from Quinsy; Thomas'' Eclectric Oil cured me. My
wife and child had diphtheria; Thomas' Eclectric
Oil cured them; and if taken in time will cure seven
times out of ten. I am confident it is a euro for the
most obstinate cold or cough, and if taken into the
head, by the nostrils, two or three times a week, will
relieve the most offensive case of catarrh ; and not
withstanding the delicate nature of the mucus
membrane of the nasal organs, can be taken up
with perfect impunity. For deafness and earache
it has done wonders, to my certain knowledge. It
is the only medicine dubbed patent that I have ever
felt like recommending, and I am anxious to see it
in every p.ace, for I tell you I would not be with
out it in the house for any consideration. It also
operates in Asthma as a specific, and whenever it is
used it becomes indispensable to household safety.
I am ready to give anyone the benefit of my ex
perience and observation, both as to its effects and
mode of application, if they will drop me a note
making inquiry."
