A Sick Man's Wife Disregards the Druggist's
Advice and So Snvas the Lift if
0 Her Husband.
I am a wood carver by trade and it is
out of nv line to write letters; but inv
w ife though- :t was no more than right
that I sh«»:. . t you know what your
remedy has done for me, and I think
so too.
I lire in East 157th street, wrest of
Third avenue, and have lived there for
about twenty-three years, where I own
real estate. Up to the time I am about
to meution I had Itoeu a strong, well
man. Then- w as always more or less
malaria in the neighborhood, but I had
m>t personally suffered from it. It was
in 1880 I had mi first attack. It came
on as such attacks commonly do, with
headaches, loss of appetite and ambi
tion, chilly sensations with slight fever
afterwards, a disposition to yawn and
stretch, and so forth. I was employed
at that time at Killians & Brothers,
furniture manufacturers, in West 32d
»;reet. 1 hoped the attack would wear
nif. but as it didn't I consulted a well
known and able physician iu Morris
ania, who gave me q iuine and told me
what to do. I can sum up the first four
and a half or rive vears of my exneri
i nee in few words. Occasionally 1
was laid up for a day or two, but on
me whole r -t , o my work. I kept 1
taking qi: i: . in larger doses from
\ ar to \ . cl kept on getting weak
er and v - . -lowly but surely, all the
tone. -V. iioithle was now well de
timsl aix: o • • \ uiptoiws were steady and
regular. I <1 dumb ague in its worst
i iu. ai-d i*. nas grinding me down in
.pile of ..!' that 1 could do or the doc
tors could do. It held me in a grip like
• rt ,n 11 burning coal mine. The poison
had gone all through ami over me and
nothing was aide to touch it. I was
fast losing desk and strength, and about
March. I knocked off *rk entire
ly and went home to betlow • Vk, and
to die for all I could tell. I r.-1 wnso
rapidly that l soon became u. Ic to
walk any distance. Later 1 w .. . * >m
room *o room in my own house only by
friends holding me up by each arm. I he
do>« s of quinine were increased umil I
uj >» look thirty grains at a dose. Hie
. cts of this tremendous stimul . i >n
w to make me nearly wild. It Lr.-ke
inv sleep all up, and 1 often walker! ihe
tl»H*r, or staggered about it, all night
long, scarcely able to bear any noises
or even human speech. My temper
was extremely irritable. As to food,
one of my fifth1 c ildreu would eat
more in a meal than I could in a day*.
1 would older food .md then turn from
it iu disgust. 1 lived on quiniuc aud
other stimulant-* and on myself, like a
bear iu winter. The quinine set my
head in a whirl, and tin* liquor—given
as a medicine mad*- my stomach so
sick I could not t.•!» rate it.
From 17.1) i*>und- tiny proper weight)
I rau down to 1»7 pounds—the weight
of a light girl—and was scarcely 1 letter
than a skeleton.
If anybody bad taken a hatchet and
knocked no down aud killed me I should
hare been better off.
During the latter part of this period,
early in !**♦>. my physician said:
•• Miller, there's no use in my taking
am more money of vou. 1 can't do you
a:-, good. I might jiour pounds of qui
nine down your throat and it wouluu’t
help yon."
On 'h.* strength of this I gave ut> the
us.* of quinine ul.ogcther. and made up
my mind to do nothing more and take
luv chances.
Three weeks afterward* about the
last of May—my w if saw an advertise
ment "f Kaskiuc in New York paper,
sh-told me of it. 1 said: “Stuff and
I... i-ense.' it can’t do me any good.” |
But she went to a druggist's, neverthe
less. to get it. Tin druggist advised
her against Kaskine: lie said it was
nothing but suga i. »h * * she ought not
to throw away ii ■: m nev on it. &«*.
He said he didn't keep :. but could get
jt if she iusisted . having it. Turn
ing away in disg»*i n.y wife spoke to
our neighbor. Mr. A. t«. llegewald.
w ho got her a I Kittle at a drug store in
Sixth avenue.
Almost against my will, and without
the least faith. 1 Wgan taking it. In
one week I was better. I Wgan to
sleep. I stoppis! “ seeing ghosts.” I
I» gan to have an apatite and to gain
r length. Tliis was now the tirst of
June, 1KS6. and hy the end of that
month 1 was Iwek at my I tench at C. I*.
Smith's seroll >aw ing factory iu 116th
street, w hen* I work now.
Siuce then I have never lost a day
from sickness. Taking Kaskine only,
about forty pellets in four equal doses
a day, I continued to gain. The ma
laria appealed to W killed in my sys
tem, and now I've got hack my old
weight—175 pounds—and my old
strength to laWr. 1 am an astonish
ment to myself and to my friends, and
if Kaskine did not do this I don't know
w hat did. The only greater thing it
could do would W to bring a dead man
to life. Fickio kh k A. Miller,

P. S.—For the a! - .lilt* truth of the
above statement I refer to the following
gentlemen, who are personally ac
quainted with the facts: Mr. Alex
ander Weir. 626 l.'jtitii SL; Mr. Georp*
S. aman. 15*th stria t and Courtlandt
a*, rime; Mr. A. Morbus. 154th street

Vmpel. 151th stre t and Courtlandt
an one; Mr. John Lunin. 630 East
1. ii street; Mr. Join; Itclishaw, 124
12 oh street, ami main others. I will
ai'o reply to letters of inquiry.
\Ve submit that the above astonish
ing cure, vouched for as it is by repu
table men, is deserving of a thorough
and candid investigation by thinking
people. And we further submit that
when druggists turn away customers
• bv falsifying the character of a remedy
because thc\ do not h.ipp«*u to have it
on hand, they do a gn at wrong. If
this afflicted man had not disregarded
the druggist's advice and scut else
where for the n im dy he would without
doubt have Iteeii in lii> grave.
Other letters of a similar character
from prominent individuals, which
stamp Kaskine as a remedy of un
doubted merit, will be sent on applica
tion. Price. $l.oo. or 6 Unties. $5.00.

THE REFORMER.
BrA'fw the monstrous wrong ho sets him down—
| Oue man against a stone w alled dty of sin.
For centuries those w alls have been a-building;
I Smooth porphyry, they slope and coldly glass
The dying storm and w heeling sun. No chink,
j No crevice lets the thinnest arrow in.
He fights alone, and from the cloudy ramparts
A thousand evil faces jibe and Jeer him.
Let him lie down and die: what is the right,
And where is justice, in a world like this?
But by and by earth shakes herself. Impatient;
And down, in one great roar of min, crash
Watch tower and citadel and battlements.
When the red dust has cleared, the lonely soldier
Stands with strange thoughts beneath the friendly
stars. • —E. R Sill in The Century.
OUR NEWSPAPER HEADLINES.
i American Originality and “Smartness”
Astonish Our English Cousins.
In England sensationalism and anything
approaching “smartness” are avoided; but
in America the very opposite is the rule.
Indeed, so much attention is paid to head
lines in that country that there is engaged
on the staff of every newspaper of im
portance a gentleman whose duty it is to
supply headline* to articles and para
graphs. Some of these headline writers
are paid large salaries and have a wide
reputation.
Mr. George Augustus Sala once said
that American journalists rarely take any
thing seriously; they are perpetually try
ing to be smart and amusing. Few peo
ple who have even an elementary knowl
edge of American newspapers will call
Into question the truth of Mr. Sala’s as
sertion. The American joumalls is
uothing if not original, and this ruling
passion is strikingly exemplified in the
very headlines.
We have, for instance, never seen but
one heading iu English newspapers for
those simple announcements which never
fail to interest female readers—we mean
the Births, Marriages and Deaths. In
America, however, they use such head
lines aa Cradle, Altar, Tomb; Hatches,
Matches, Dispatches, and so on; while one
original genius sums up life thus—Births,
Flirtations, Engagements, Breakings off,
Marriages, Divorces, Deaths. Then, in
stead of the familiar heading, Poetry, we
find Lays of the Latest Minstrels, or the
Warblers’ Corner.
The columns of clippings, however, af
ford scope for the most variety. One
editor heads his column of jokes, Render
unto Scissors the Things that are Scissors;
while another follows with Aut Scissors
aut Null us. Oue Thing and Another,
Drops of Ink, Various Topics, Microbes,
Nuggets, AU Sorts, Faggots, Pressed
Bricks—these are a few others taken at
random. Hash is, however, perhaps the
most appropriate of the lot. These head
lines appear very strange to us; yet it
should not be forgotten that, nearly 104
years ago, The Times published wea£
jokes under the extraordinary head 0(
“Cuckoo!”—Chambers’ Journal.
Hangers On in Journalism.
“I hate to see a man enter that room,”
said the city editor of a morning paper to
an applicant for work. “Look at those
young men sitting round that table; they
are aU waiting for me to give them assign
ments, and I have none to give. Why
don't they come in here and suggest some
thing themselves?” Most city editors
in New York have the same feeling.
They are overrun with applicants for
places, and two-thirds of those who pre
sent themselves are utterly unfit for
the work they wish to do. The space
system of pay for local newspaper
work intensifies the pressure. Any man
with paper and pencil can write what may
be published aud paid for, and so when a
man finds other doors closed against him
be goes to a newspaper office. A good
many women seek the same refuge. The
patience of city editors under the infliction
is marvelous. Perhaps it is partly ac
counted for by the fact that most of them
do not have to edit (be manuscript turned
out by these beginners. It is handed
over to those luckless wretches, the copy
readers, and they generally make short
work of it.—Cor. Philadelphia Record.
The American Book Collector.
There is nothing small about the Ameri
can collector of books. At the recent
Penseyres sale, in Paris, E. F. Bonaven
ture, the dealer of this city, had an agent
present. Among a number of other
purchases made by him was ono of a book
from the collection of the ancient biblio
phile G roller, for which he paid nearly
$7,000. It is about half the size of a
Webster's Unabridged, and is not in a
perfect state, a page being wanted. Yet
collectors are crazy about it, and if the
dealer bolds out long enough be will prob
ably get double what it cost him. Other
purchases of his were a couple of little
books of the size of the patent medicine
almanacs you pick up ou drug store
counters. Oue is a prayer book, wfth
queer illustrations printed from wood
blocks, and the other a letter of Americus
Vespucius, tho discoverer of America.
These cost the dealer some 11,000 francs,
or over $2,000. While I was looking over
some French periodicals at Bonaventure’s
the other afternoon the son of a millionaire
of Wall street came in. bought a bundle
of books and went away. I asked the
salesman whether he had made a good
sale. He showed me the memorandum.
Tho little package the young man had
carried off in his hand had cost him
11,200.—Alfred Trumble in New York
News. _
The Clam anil the Sage.
A Clam who had made up his mind that
this country was going to the Dogs if he
did not save it was Rolling along the
Beach when he Encountered a Sage, who
asked:
“Whither bound and for what pur
pose*’’
“I have set out to save the Country. I
have solved all the Political and Social
Problems and I now go to announce them
to tho World.
“My Dear Bivalve,” said the Sage in
his gentlest tones, “the first great Prob
lem of Life, as you are probably prepared
to announce, Is the Food supply. Thanks
for your coming. I shall Eat you! Next!”

Detroit Free Press.
Imitative Ethel.
Little Ethel bos a bachelor uncle, and
she hod noticed that when he wanted to
be very emphatic he used a certain mono
syllabic word of four letters. Not long
ago Ethel was afflicted with quite a severe
pain under her little apron, the result of
too free an indulgence in the toothsome
cucumber. When Uncle Jack come home
at supper time he was informed of the
grievous plight of his little favorite, and
hastened to her comfort
“Well. Ethel, my dear,” he said, ad
vancing to tho sofa, “how do yon feel
now?”
“Pretty d—u miserable, thank you,
Uncle Jack,” she replied with au air of
haviug said quite the proper thing under
the circumstances.—Chicago Tribune.
