Here I am, on mj$ Iwato, eare and sound, and with way my pM*e In my pocket, though I've had •ooMMrrow escapes. Night before last I wandered down on I h|rd avenue. Doll's know how I happened to be down there, but there I was. Just WftftAsnng around looking at the sights! Pretty soon I noticed three men follow­ ing me. That scared roe, but 1 kept niy wlt^ about me all the 9atne. I looked for a policeman, but, of course, i cottldn't see any. I was about to euf and ran for it, bdt as 1 looked back Ip saw the fellows coming for me. An Idea struck me, and I turned quickly •end walked toward them. Before they eould do a thlnjf or say a word I ex­ claimed: '•Will you please give me 10 cents to get a night's lodging with?', "You ought to have seen the look of disgust that came on those fellows!' faces as they swore at me and walked off. ¥et at that very minute I had down here in my pants'1 pocket the money I bad got for six car loads of hogs.

The following from a noted physician may be worthy 6f attention: I herewith append • recipe which has been used to my libowledge in hundreds of cases. It trill prevent or cure small pox, though Ibe pittlngs are filling. It wilt also • ure scarlet fever. Here is the recipe as l have used it to cure my children of scarlet fever* here it is as I have twd it to cure small pox. When learn* ed physic! ins said the patient must die, it cured: "Sulphate of zinc one grain; foxglove (digitalis) one grain; half a tf &8poonful ef sugar; mix with two teaspoonstul of water; when thor­ oughly mixed, add four ounces of Water. Take a teaspoonful every hour. Either disease will disappear in twelve boars. For a child, small doses, accord­ ing to age." If nations would compel physicians to use this, there would be no need of pest houses. If you value •dvice and experience, use this for that terrible disease.--Aurora News, MoHENRY, ILL. : General; Merchants, McHefliy, 111.
